Chapter 88: Relocation of the Farm (3)
Although they were afraid of causing a huge sensation, Wang Qiang and the three girls asked the five big guys to hurry at night and find a place with beautiful scenery to rest during the day, and the mountain road was rugged and difficult, but under the powerful gallop of Rhubarb and Lao Hei, they were basically able to run three or four hundred miles of mountain roads every night except for a little rest.

Not long after, one of the performances of Rhubarb made Wang Qiang and the three sisters of the Tian family truly speechless to the five big guys of Rhubarb and Lao Hei!
Speaking of which, this speechlessness is a bit nonsensical: on the second night of departure, everyone came to a small river, Wang Qiang and they were a little worried: there is a bridge not far away, but if you cross the river from the bridge, the probability of being noticed will undoubtedly increase, which is not very appropriate.
However, at this time, the five big guys didn't take this big river seriously, and the rhubarb turned his head and shouted at Wang Qiang, wanting to rush towards the river in front of him!
"Rhubarb, Huahua, slow down!"
There was no preparation at all, of course he couldn't just cross the river like this, Wang Qiang immediately stopped the rhubarb, and spent a quarter of an hour bandaging the lower body of the four of them with a rain cloth.
What everyone never expected was that the speed of these five big guys crossing the river was not much worse than running on the shore, and they arrived at the opposite bank steadily and easily, swimming nearly 100 meters is a moment of effort, but it took a little longer for Wang Qiang to prepare for the river before.
This surprise is not insignificant: you know, you don't know how many rivers and rivers you have to cross from here to your intended destination, so that the biggest obstacle has been completely eliminated.
A month later, the small group had passed through Lhasa and arrived at the banks of the Brahmaputra River.
After crossing the Brahmaputra River, the four of them agreed to settle down, cross the Himalayas, plunge into the southeastern corner of Bhutan, and place the super farm on the plain on the north bank of the Brahmapura River.
The purpose of this arrangement is to take advantage of the continuous upgrading of farms in the future, to divide a large area of land belonging to India between Bhutan and the westernmost part of Burma, and to allocate all the land north of this central line to the motherland, and to get back the land occupied by the three Arab countries, and at the same time make the three Arab countries pay a little interest.
……
There is a Milky Way in the sky and a celestial river on the earth. The Brahmaputra River, known as the "Heavenly River", flows out from among the ice peaks of the snow-capped mountains, and brings the ice liquid jade paddle to the southern Tibetan valley, so that this area is fertilized with red grass and flowers.
To the south of the Brahmaputra River rises the Himalayas, the tallest and youngest in the world, and to the north are the Gangdis Mountains and the Ninchen Tanggula Mountains. Between the north and the south is the southern Tibetan valley, and the Yarlung Zangbo River basin is long and narrow from east to west, and narrow and short from north to south.
The Brahmaputra River, originating in China's XC Autonomous Region, means "snow flowing from the mountains" in Tibetan, and is regarded as the "cradle" and "mother river" by the Tibetans. Its upper reaches are the highest river in the world and the steepest river in China.
The source of the Brahmaputra River is the Jemayangzong Glacier at the northern foot of the XC Himalayas in China, and the upper reaches are called the Maquan River, which traverses the southern part of XC from west to east.
After flowing through Mirin, it cuts through the Himalayas north of Metuo, and turns south around the easternmost peak of the Himalayas, Nanga Bhava, forming the world's largest canyon - the Brahmaputra Grand Canyon.
Later, it exited the Line of Actual Control of China (i.e., the McMahon Line) in Bashika, passed through the southern Tibetan region of China occupied by India, and then entered the Indian state of Assam, where it was renamed the Brahmaputra River.
After entering Bangladesh, it is called the Jamuna River, which meets the Ganges River in Bangladesh and finally flows into the Bay of Bengal, forming the largest delta in the world.
There are many tributaries of the Brahmaputra River, of which there are 14 rivers with a catchment area of more than 2,000 square kilometers and 5 rivers with a catchment area of more than 10,000 square kilometers, namely Duoxiong Zangbo, Nianchu River, Lhasa River, Niyang River and Palung Zangbo.
Among them, the Lhasa River has the longest river and the largest catchment area, and the annual runoff of Palung Zangbo is the largest.
The Brahmaputra River flows through the Himalayas, the world's tallest and youngest mountain, and in the southern Tibetan valley between the Gangdis Mountains and the Nenchen Tanggula Mountains. The upstream waterways are tortuous, the lakes and ponds are dotted, the water is crystal clear, and the grass on both sides is abundant, which is particularly gorgeous and pleasing to the eye.
The middle reaches bring together many tributaries, abundant water, wide and deep rivers, providing favorable conditions for plateau shipping, and is the highest navigable river section in the world.
In the lower reaches of the river, the river is surging, and after gradually turning to the northeast, it suddenly turns sharply to the south, forming the famous bottom canyon at the big bend. The river here is narrow, the riverbed is dotted with beaches and reefs, the river current is rapid, the sound is rumbling, and it is magnificent.
……
Near the outlet of the Lhasa River where it joins the Brahmaputra River, we found a section of the river with a gentle flow and prepared to cross the river.
Because the current of this river is too big, Wang Qiang made the same preparations for crossing the river as before, and used ropes to tie his four people and their suits firmly to Rhubarb and Huahua, and after repeated inspections, he was relieved to ask Rhubarb and the five big guys to start crossing the river.
The five big guys with extreme strength, the four of them came to the south bank of the Brahmaputra River without danger, rested a little, had a hearty lunch, checked the map with Wang Qiang's super mobile phone, identified the direction, and continued to move towards the Himalayas.
A week later, we were at the foot of the Himalayas, located in northern Bhutan.
The Himalayas, which means "home of snow" in Tibetan. Located on the southern edge of the Tibetan Plateau, it is the highest mountain range in the world, with more than 110 peaks reaching or exceeding 7,350 meters above sea level.
It is the natural boundary mountain between the East Asian continent and the South Asian subcontinent, and it is also the natural border between China and India, Nepal, Bhutan, Pakistan and other countries.
From the Nanga-Parbat Peak of Kashmir in the west (8125 meters above sea level) to the Nanga Bhava Peak (7782 meters above sea level) at the bend of the Brahmaputra River in the east, the Himalayas are 3400 kilometers long and 200~350 kilometers wide.
The Himalayas are fed by 19 major rivers, of which the Indus and Brahmapudra rivers are the largest, each with a mountain catchment area of about 259,000 square kilometers. The main peak is Mount Everest, the highest peak in the world, with an altitude of 8844.43 meters. According to the latest measurements, Mount Everest is growing by an average of 1 centimeter per year.
The Himalayas are one of the tallest and youngest mountain ranges in the world.
According to the research of geologists, 70 million years ago, it was still a vast ocean, and 30 million years ago, due to orogeny, the Indian Ocean plate in the south and the Eurasian plate in the north collided with each other, overlapping and squeezing, so that the Himalayas continued to rise.
By 3 million years ago, it had risen to 3,500 meters, and in the last 100,000 years, it has risen even faster, with an average height of more than 6,000 meters today, and it continues to rise.
The Himalayas suddenly uplifted, forming a volley barrier that blocked the northward movement of warm and humid air currents from the Indian Ocean, resulting in a cold and arid climate in Qinghai-Tibet, which affected the northwest of the country.
