Chapter 439: Surveying the Hudson River

Tai Shi Liang took the engineer to prepare to go out of the city to survey the Hudson River.

When they reached the gate of the city, they were stopped by the sentry guarding the gate.

"Stop! Where are you going? ”

"We are from the city management office, and we have official business to go out of the city." Tai Shiliang took out his ID and showed it to the sentry.

The sentry did not pick up his papers and asked, "Is there a road?" ”

"I'm sorry, I'm too busy today, so I didn't apply for a road slip from the management office." Tai Shiliang hurriedly explained.

The sentry said expressionlessly: "No one is allowed to go out of the city without a road, this is Commander Ma's order." ”

"We're just going to the river, we won't go far, and we'll be back soon, so please make it easy for us to get out of town." Tai Shi Liang persuaded the sentinel.

The sentry said, "We can't do anything that violates the rules, please go back and write a road note." ”

Tai Shi Liang looked helpless, so he had to say to the five people under him: "You wait here for a while, and I'll go back and write a road."

Tai Shiliang returned to the city hall, came directly to the director's office, and said to Director Hu Xinghua: "Director Hu, our electric power department is going to the Hudson River to explore the water situation, and the sentry at the city gate will not let us go out of the city. ”

Hu Xinghua said: "Wasn't it decided at the meeting?" All those who leave the city must obtain permission from the Administration, and you are no exception. ”

Tai Shiliang said: "I'm not here to report to you!" ”

Hu Xinghua asked: "Have you done all the safety measures to go out of the city?" ”

Tai Shiliang said: "We have done a lot of work, and everyone has brought plenty of dry food and weapons. ”

Hu Xinghua asked, "How many are there?" ”

"Plus me, six in all."

"Just the six of you?" Hu Xinghua hurriedly shook his head, "No, no, why don't you have any security awareness?" I'll send you a platoon of Marines to follow you and keep you safe. ”

Tai Shiliang said: "We won't go far, and we don't need to send troops to protect us." ”

"That's not good, didn't the emperor say it, you can take a division alone, I just sent a platoon to protect you now, like you treasures, it's not too much to send a division to protect." Hu Xinghua said as he opened the way for Taishi Liang.

Tai Shiliang got the road slip, escorted by a platoon of marines, returned to the city gate, the sentry took the road strip and looked at it, and then said, "Please show your ID." ”

Tai Shi Liang handed the certificate to the sentry again, and after the sentry read it, he returned the certificate to Tai Shi Liang, and gave a salute, and said respectfully: "Director Tai Shi, you can pass!" ”

After walking out of the city gate, his subordinates asked in a low voice, "Director Taishi, why is there still a team of guards?" ”

Tai Shiliang said: "If I don't bring someone here, can the sentry let us out of the city?" ”

The man was confused, did the sentry let him go when he saw the road, or did he let the guard go when he was scared? Cough! It's already out, and what do you want to do so much!

Out of the city gate, Tai Shiliang led everyone along the river bank to the north, everyone walked along the river like a walk, the purpose was to find a suitable place to build the dam, a platoon of marines followed these six people very dedicatedly, and at the same time, vigilant of the surrounding environment.

If someone or a beast suddenly jumps out, it will be beaten into a sieve by Minnie guns.

The bright sun shines on the rolling waves of the river, and from a distance, it reflects a colorful glow......

As they walked, the exploration team observed the flow of the water and the width of the river, a north-south river, and made their way upstream to find the best place to build a dam.

It is best to build a dam in a place with a large river drop and a large amount of water, and it is best if it is a pocket-shaped terrain. Pocket-type terrain: wide hinterland, narrow outlet, wide hinterland is conducive to water collection, and narrow outlet is conducive to dam construction.

The exploration team walked five miles and did not find a satisfactory place.

"Let's find a place to rest first!" One of the engineers suggested.

Tai Shiliang looked up at the sky, the sun was like fire, the engineers were all sweating profusely, in this hot summer, although occasionally a hint of wind blew, everyone was still uncomfortably hot.

Tai Shiliang shouted loudly: "Everyone find a shady place to rest!" ”

There were quite a few large trees on the embankment, and the Marines also hid in the shade after leaving a guard post.

Tai Shiliang led five people around a big tree and sat on the thick roots.

"This fucking hot weather!" One engineer complained.

Another engineer said, "If you're afraid of the heat, jump into the river!" ”

Tai Shiliang said solemnly: "Don't make too much of a joke, can such a turbulent river go down?" ”

"That is, we are not here to escape the summer, we are here to work, if this heat can't be served, how can we build a new Chang'an?" An engineer sitting at the end of the tree said.

Tai Shiliang said: "Chen Gong is right, we still focus on work. ”

This Chen Gong spoke again: "After walking for so long, my stomach is empty, can you eat some dry food first?" ”

"Yes!" Tai Shi nodded in agreement, and then he said to Chen Gong, "You go and ask those soldiers if they have brought dry food, if not, we will give them a little." ”

Chen Gong stood up and walked towards the marines, and the platoon commander saw an engineer walking towards him, so he took the initiative to stand up and greet him.

"Is there anything?"

"Our director asked me to come over and ask if you have brought dry food, if not, we will give you a little."

The company commander hurriedly waved his hand: "No, no, no." We are Marines, and survival in the wild is a must for us, and you go back and tell your director that we can't go hungry. ”

"Then I'll go back and tell our director." Chen Gong politely saluted the platoon commander and turned back to the big tree.

"How?" Tai Shiliang asked.

Chen Gong said: "They said they didn't need our dry food, and they would find a way for themselves." ”

The engineers were curious and curious to see what the soldiers would do to solve their stomach problems.

Everyone gathered around to eat dry food and looked over at the Marines, who were carrying dry food in sheets, which they rolled into rolls and looked at as they ate.

They saw the platoon commander ordering a dozen soldiers to walk towards the river, and after a while they heard the sound of "bang-bang" gunshots, and after a while, the soldiers returned, and they saw a few soldiers coming back with the killed beavers in their hands.

The soldier here had already prepared the firewood, and he started roasting the beaver.

The engineers watched with relish, and before they knew it, they had eaten all the pancakes.

Chen Gong stood up, patted his stomach, and said, "It's full, it's full." I'm going to get some water! ”

"Stay safe!" Tai Shiliang admonished.

Chen Gong turned around and said, "Director, don't worry!" I just noticed that there is a small stream over there, and the water is very clear. ”

Tai Shiliang said to everyone: "When Chen Gong comes back, we will also drink." ”

So everyone picked up the mess with all their hands.

Soon, Chen Gong returned satisfied.

"Go and drink it, for the water is sweet!"

Tai Shiliang said to Chen Gong: "Don't walk around here, let's go and drink water and come back." ”

As he spoke, he led the engineers forward, and when he passed by the platoon commander, he said to the platoon commander: "Platoon commander, there is a small stream over there, the stream water is drinkable, do you want to go with us to drink water?" ”

"Okay! I'll go with you. It seems that the platoon commander's mouth is indeed thirsty.

Everyone walked forward for more than 50 meters, and really saw a stream, the engineers happily leaned down one by one to drink water with their hands, Tai Shiliang was also about to bend down, put his hands together to hold the water, only to hear the platoon commander say softly: "There is a situation!" ”

As soon as everyone heard about the situation, they all left the stream one after another, and the platoon commander looked at the grass by the stream vigilantly and said, "Look, there are people's footprints here." ”

Tai Shiliang breathed a sigh of relief and said, "This is Chen Gong's footprints just now." ”

The platoon commander said with certainty: "No, this footprint is obviously bigger than Chen Gong, from the depth of the footprint, this is a big tall man, much bigger than Chen Gong, you see, the shoe print is not different from Chen Gong's." ”

"Is there really anyone else here?" Taishi Liang said.

The platoon commander said: "You don't need to panic, go back to where you just now, we have to search here." ”

The platoon commander called a squad of soldiers, followed the footprints found, kept tracking, these footprints appeared from time to time, but could not escape the eagle-like eyes of the marines, they followed the footprints for more than two miles, found a very secret cave, the platoon commander gently touched the hole entrance, heard the sound of moaning inside.
