Chapter 295: A Battle of Four Thousand and Seventy Thousand Square Kilometers
For Magneto's request, Zhang Moxuan didn't know whether to be happy or sad.
..................
Because of Zhang Moxuan's current changes, a big reason comes from Song Renjie. Because Song Renjie is a very good man. During his five years in the Northwest, he relied on his own ability to plant trees and change the desert situation in many areas of the Northwest.
Desertification, soil erosion, planting places where nothing can be fed. Many of them have been greatly improved.
The Northwest is largely unable to retain people not only because of the poor economic situation, but most importantly because the climate is so harsh.
The kind of place where you can only bathe a few times a month even in the summer because of the lack of water is really unbearable.
It's like Panshui Middle School where Song Renjie once went.
He still remembers the unpretentious slogan on the back board of the classroom: I have to study hard to eat dead dough cakes and drink cold water today, so that I can no longer eat dead dough cakes and drink cold water tomorrow!
Those children in the northwest who got up at five o'clock to study shocked Song Renjie.
Those who have been holding on to the desert control for a longer period of time, or even more than 20 years, have also shocked Song Renjie.
The abandoned villages in the desert Gobi also shocked Song Renjie.
From that time on, Song Renjie, who didn't like the work of planting trees, planted trees in the northwest with peace of mind. After all these years, the woods he once planted began to become lush.
They stood on the front line of the sand control post, blocking the wind and sand one by one.
Today, Song Renjie received several letters.
In this era, there are not many people who still write letters, and Lao Song, the former captain of the Northwest Sand Control Team, is counted as one.
Lao Song has the same surname as himself, and his name is Song Bin.
He is a rough man who speaks a northwestern dialect. Although rude, he is also very enthusiastic. Back then, he was also taken care of by him under his hands.
I was quite a deserter at the beginning, but I was persuaded by him to come back.
Song Bin is fifty years old this year, but just looking at the face, it looks like he is seventy years old. He wrote to Song Renjie because he was selected as a National May Day Outstanding Worker this year. He went to the Great Hall of the People, and was presented with a heavy medal by the supreme chief.
Song Bin has been controlling desertification in the northwest for 30 years. Since he was 16 years old, he has been working on desertification. The nineties was the peak period of desertification in the northwest, and the technical level was backward and the funds were not in place.
Even the salaries of the desert control personnel are very meager, and not many people are willing to do these things. But Song Bin, who was still young at the time, looked at the dried-up riverbed in his hometown, the increasingly scarce vegetation, and the abandoned villages.
He felt like he had something to do. Song Bin, who had never gone to school, picked up a shovel and hoe, and with all his strength, he started his road of fighting sand in the northwest.
Today, the desertification control team led by Song Bin has become a model team in the country. In addition to Song Bin winning the May Day Labor Medal, the state also awarded his team the [Northwest Sand Control Pacesetter Collective] medal.
Over the years, Lao Song has led his team to plant and survive more than 150,000 acres of sand control forests in the northwest. A great green wall has been built in the northwest.
Lao Song has not forgotten Song Renjie, who has been in his team for five years. Because of the five years that Song Renjie joined, their desertification control speed has become faster and the survival rate is higher.
Therefore, Lao Song specially applied to his superiors and needed an extra medal to be awarded to Song Renjie.
"Without him, the hungry wouldn't have been able to plant so many trees behind them. ”
Old Song, who spoke Northwest Mandarin, said such words to the supreme chief. It can be said that he is very unpolitically conscious. But he is very responsible as a captain.
Song Renjie received a letter from Lao Song, as well as a beautiful wooden box attached to the letter. When the wooden box was opened, there was a medallion with exquisite workmanship and a metallic sheen.
[Special Commendation for China's Sand Control Person-Song Renjie]
Song Renjie opened the letter, and Lao Song wrote a lot of things in the letter. Most of it is about Song Renjie's life in the Northwest after he left the Northwest team.
The letter reads:
Most of the trees we planted survived. Many villages now have green on the outside. Someone came back and started a pig farm and a chicken farm. The barren mountains are now overgrown with green grass, and some people have begun to grow sand dates.
Do you remember the village called Jinshui Village, which we once passed by, which was about to be deserted? Now some companies have taken a fancy to its geographical location and built a processing plant for sand dates and Northwest specialties there. Now the village is lively again, and many people who went out to work have returned.
Now we have planted trees to save the water, and the soil and water are not being lost. Those dry riverbeds are slowly starting to get water again.
Do you remember Panshui Middle School? Now that the big river next to the school is starting to have water again, I think in a few years, it will start to run like it did when I was a child.
The chief met with us, the sand control people, and held a meeting for us. I'm excited, little Song.
It's a pity you're not here, otherwise you'd be as excited as I am.
According to the calculations of scientists, our country intends to leave part of the desert in order to guarantee a normal and orderly cycle of the climate. And the final battle against the other desertified lands will be launched.
4.07 million square kilometers of land, from south to north and from east to west. I'm going to fight in one of the greatest battles of my life.
Everything is fine in the Northwest, don't worry. Thank you very much for the sweets and pastries you sent from Huaihai, as well as the new clothes. Your sister-in-law and your nephew love it.
You take good care of yourself in Huaihai, and you are going to do something earth-shattering. 】
In Hive City, in Song Renjie's dormitory. After reading the letter, he couldn't calm down for a long time.
Yes, when I was in the northwest, I thought about returning to the capital or a big city like Huaihai countless times, and I felt that I had room to show my strength in such a big city.
Now that he has indeed returned to Huaihai, his job is to help build the hive greenery, and at the same time teach at the Hive No. 1 Middle School to educate the younger generation of ability awakeners to use their abilities.
Trees and tree people, no matter how high or low, are all contributing to the country.
But after Song Renjie returned to Huaihai, he was not as excited as he imagined, and he still thinks of his time in the northwest every time he dreams back at midnight.
It's hard, but it's full of meaning.
Song Renjie sat at his desk and looked at Song Bin's letter, looking at his sentence [4.07 million square kilometers of greening campaign].
Song Renjie glanced at the medal that Song Bin sent to him, he took a deep breath, took out a piece of letter paper from the desk, and wrote down three words: Please fight the book.
