Self-Driving Around The World, One Person And One Car Traveling Through 83 Countries!

Chapter 18 I’M Afraid The First Stop Will Be Hell Difficulty

Qin Feng couldn't sleep here, so he simply stopped sleeping.

Sitting at the desk, he took out his notes and maps and carefully checked his recent travel plans.

Speculate whether there are any mistakes.

Any mistake during the trip could get him into trouble.

In this round-the-world self-driving trip, he had to do everything almost perfectly in order to successfully reach the Cape of Good Hope in Africa after one year and seven months.

First of all, he will set off from Hangzhou tomorrow.

All the way north.

Enter Inner Mongolia.

Landed in Russia in Manzhouli, a city on the northern border of the Dragon Kingdom.

Then he came to the first stop of his global journey, Siberia.

Strictly speaking, he entered the country from eastern Russia. Since he was driving to Europe, he had to cross the entire Siberia.

Today's Siberia is no longer the Siberia of a hundred years ago.

Now there are not only roads but also railways.

But Siberia is too big.

It is so big that it is 3 million square kilometers larger than the entire Dragon Kingdom.

In fact, Russia was the country with the largest land area on earth, accounting for 1/6 of the world's land area, whether during the Soviet period or the Tsarist Russia period.

Siberia alone occupies 77% of Russia's territory, and the remaining 23% is the European plains.

Siberia has a total area of ​​13 million square kilometers and is mainly divided into three regions: the West Siberian Plain, the Central Siberian Plateau, and the East Siberian Mountains.

Among them, Western Siberia is the most suitable for development, with large tracts of black land.

It is a pity that such fertile land is left undeveloped and becomes barren and overgrown with weeds.

Qin Feng has no doubt that if it is developed by the people of Longguo, the second Beidahuang granary can be built directly.

There is only one road and railway that runs through the entire Siberia.

Roads and railways run almost parallel to each other.

Railways can be seen from time to time on the road.

It is hard to imagine that a place larger than Dragon Kingdom is only connected by a two-lane highway.

From this you can feel how desolate Siberia is...

In such a desolate place, refueling became a big problem.

Fortunately there are some towns along the highway.

Some are relatively close to each other.

Some are hundreds of kilometers apart.

All he has to do is fill up when he sees a gas station.

That's right.

Otherwise, if you miss a gas station, you won’t know when the next one will arrive.

Crossing Siberia is a long process.

The scenery along the way is very monotonous and there are no scenic spots.

And only now is the right time to travel.

The climate conditions there can no longer be described as harsh.

There is only a short three-month period in summer every year when you can go out and do activities.

Winter is directly fatal, with the average temperature around -40C and the lowest -73℃.

The temperatures are slightly better in spring.

However, the temperature in January on the Trans-Siberian Railway and surrounding cities is also around -20.

Qin Feng was glad that he had caught up with the good times.

It's June now.

If he were allowed to cross Siberia in November, he would probably freeze to death there.

Few people on earth can stand the weather in Siberia.

Even the few Russians living there flock to Moscow to stay warm in winter.

In fact, it was a little late for him to cross Siberia now.

The best time is in May.

If he drives around 15 to 16 hours a day, he has a chance to cross this place in 11 days.

Qin Feng plans to challenge it.

The sooner we get through this ungrateful place, the better.

Because Siberia has been a place where criminals were exiled since ancient times.

A place outside the law.

In such a wild place, anything can happen.

All he needs to do is drive with all his might.

It can be opened for 16 hours a day, but never for 15 hours.

These 11 days will be quite boring and tiring for him.

He is equivalent to living a single-player life for a period of time.

Nothing to do but drive.

But all the dullness and tedium are just preparations for the excitement in the future.

After leaving Siberia, when he entered Stalingrad and the Chechnya region, he had to be prepared to be frightened.

But in fact, Siberia is no less scary than Chechnya.

Only those who have experienced this place will understand why Siberian tigers dare to hunt brown bears, but they dare not enter Siberia...

You must know that Siberian tigers once widely appeared in the North China Plain area of ​​​​Dragon Kingdom.

Later, they were hunted and driven away by people, and they retreated to the northeast and southeast corner of Russia.

Logically speaking, Siberia is sparsely populated, and it should be easier for the expelled Siberian tigers to survive there.

But they would rather huddle in a small corner than step into Siberia.

There is a saying that Qin Feng felt that the first stop of his global journey was to start the hell difficulty.

I hope he and his Longsan car can pass safely by then!
