Chapter 2 Guangdong Layout Hutuo River Explosion

Yang Yulin coaxed her daughter and said, "Didn't you keep saying that you want men and women to be equal, didn't you?" ”

"Huh! yes, if you have something to say, just say it! No need to beat around the bush. Zhang Zhimu smiled and said, "You can't turn a corner." ”

"I don't have anyone else going to turn a corner." Yang Yulin said with a little jealousy, "I heard that there will be martial arts and Go competitions, but don't forget, there will also be women's competitions." ”

Zhang Zhimu was really surprised when he heard it, "Women's ring match? Does anyone attend? ”

Huang Yukun interjected next to him: "It's not that you want to participate, right? I'm telling you, you can't get involved in this, pay attention to who you are. ”

Huang Yukun said this, Yang Yulin was still energetic, and said: "I just want to see who can beat me." Why can't I participate? ”

"Huh! Okay, when the time comes, you will be alone there, no one will come on stage, but you will be happy! Zhang Zhimu said.

"Don't look down on women, there are many women practicing martial arts in the world." Yang Yulin said, "I'm serious about this. My sister-in-law is really, and she is still from the Women's Committee, so she won't know what to say for us women when the time comes. ”

"Okay! As long as you don't participate, I support it. Huang Yukun said.

"He can't participate in it," Zhang Zhimu said, "and Yulin can participate as a referee." ”

"You're okay with that?" Yang Yulin asked.

"It's a good thing, why don't you say yes." Zhang Zhimu said.

"Great," said Yang Yulin, putting her fat daughter into Zhang Zhimu's arms and saying, "Let your father hug and see how heavy her daughter is?" ”

Holding his daughter, Zhang Zhimu felt a tenderness in his heart, and he also remembered his family in his previous life, and he didn't know how they were doing. Zhang Zhimu didn't want to show his feelings in front of them, hugged his daughter, and turned away.

The Spring Festival in Yaogang is getting more and more lively. Yaogang is almost a city of immigrants, and everyone's living conditions are better, and they have brought the traditions of their hometowns with them. Especially those small merchants and hawkers, which make the festival particularly lively. However, the big drama of the New Year is the Spring Festival Gala. Now it's getting harder and harder to get tickets for the party.

The lively New Year has not ended, and on the fifth day of the first lunar month, the father-in-law Li who Zhang Zhimu most unwilling to see came over again.

But this time, Zhang Zhimu didn't have to kowtow to salute, because there was no holy decree this time.

Gonggong Li sat down and said, "Oops! I originally wanted to come back after a good New Year in the palace, but the emperor wouldn't let me. The emperor asked me to come back early to pay a New Year's greeting to Zhang Dongjia. ”

"Come on!" Zhang Zhimu said impatiently, "If you have something, just say it." ”

"Huh! Look at you, your temper is getting worse and worse. Grandpa Li laughed and said, "It's really not a big deal." The emperor said that it has been inconvenient to contact you. I want a telegraph machine from you, when do you think it will work? ”

Zhang Zhimu didn't expect the emperor to ask for a telegraph, but Zhang Zhimu would also pretend to be stupid, "Yes!" It's just that this telegraph line to Beijing is too long, and you have to solve it yourself. ”

Gonggong Li was also a little stunned when he heard it, "No! Where you don't have wires, do you have telegraphs? ”

"There is no wire to get a telegraph, why do we spend so much money to build a wire?" Zhang Zhimu knew that it was impossible for Gonggong Li to understand the difference between wired telegraph and wireless telegraphy, "When the line is set up, you can come to me again." ”

"How can I set up a telegraph wire?" Gonggong Li said with tears and laughter.

"The telegraph lines over there in Datong were all set up by the prince and Jiang Zongbing, you can learn from them." Zhang Zhimu said, "Also, if you come, I can't let you run empty." When the river opens in the spring this year, we will send a sand dredging boat to clear the canal. However, you are responsible for supplying the food on board. ”

"Oops! Good! Father-in-law Li said, "Eat and burn coal, you don't have to worry, we will arrange someone to take care of it." I'll tell the emperor when I get back. This time when I went to Beijing, the emperor asked about it. ”

Sending away Gonggong Li, Chen Yufeng called and said, "Zhimu! Do you have time tomorrow? If we have time, let's go to the Hutuo River reservoir construction site together, Li Wei just called, he said that tomorrow there will be a cannon battle, please go and see. ”

"Oops! That's a good thing, I'll go tomorrow. And those of them who want to go to the lively and lively will also go over to see it together. Zhang Zhimu really wanted to see what this explosion would do to that mountain bag.

Who doesn't want to see such a bustle, the next day a group of people from Yaogang rushed to the Hutuo River Reservoir construction site.

Zhang Zhimu, Chen Yufeng, and Ouyang He sat in a car. Chen Yufeng said: "After a few days, the weather will be warmer. Li Jing took a squadron of special forces and went to Li Mao and them first. Then they took a boat to Guangzhou. The branch in Guangzhou has already hired two hunters for money. They trained Li Jing in their ability to survive in the southern forests. ”

"I think they just stayed in Guangdong for a year to get used to the situation there. However, let Uncle Zhang prepare some medicine for them, so as not to get some diseases in the south. Like malaria or something. Zhang Zhimu said, "Fortunately, we won't have any big actions during this time." ”

"This time, Li Jing and they also have a task, which is to recruit some soldiers in Guangdong." Ouyang He said, "There are also students from all over our country who come to Yaogang, but there are too few in Guangdong. This time, I asked Li Jing to cooperate with the people in the branch in Guangdong to see if I could find more students from Guangdong. ”

"We're going to put some effort into Guangdong. Their rubber trees also lived quite a bit. In a few years, the rubber will be harvested. Zhang Zhimu said, "We have a stable branch in Guangdong, and we will arrange a competent person in the future to run Leizhou and Qiongzhou well." Perhaps after we occupy the Central Plains, the situation will change drastically. We need to be prepared in advance. I think let's let Li Zhi lay out the game over there first. Now we have people in Huguang, Henan, and Sichuan, and when we go over, we won't have a black eye. ”

"Before the southern expedition, we will solve the affairs of Datong, and at the same time, we must also prepare for the eight paths of Taihang, in case the imperial court has any moves. Qin Peng is very familiar with this area, and I have arranged for him to make a plan. Ouyang He said, "Although we estimate that the imperial court will not dare to do anything to us, but the initiative is in our own hands, and our hearts are more steady." Those places are arranged, and there is no need to put many people. ”

"Mr. Ouyang He is considering," Zhang Zhimu said, "that sooner or later we and the imperial court will turn against each other." It's right to be prepared early. But the later the day, the better. We people still think that the emperor is orthodox, and everyone else is a thief. Many gentry will not live without the emperor. ”

"Zhimu! In the past two days, Mr. Ouyang and I have been thinking about one thing, whether we can make a bigger stroke, and whether we can directly take down Sichuan when we do it. In terms of military strength, it is no problem for us to send an army over. Chen Yufeng said.

"I'm not worried about military strength," Mr. Zhang said, "and we still have a logistical supply problem to enter Sichuan." We know the difficulties of Sichuan's roads. ”

"We're thinking about these things. When we entered Sichuan, we didn't have to worry about food. Because Sichuan is a place where grain is produced, we only need to have enough logistics and transportation strength. Ouyang He said, "This year, I want Liu Yun to reconstruct the Chencang Ancient Road from Dasanguan to Hanzhong first." We have ** and pneumatic picks, and it's not too difficult to widen the road there now. Just build this road into a road that is open to traffic. In the future, the transportation of Hanzhong and Shaanxi will be convenient. ”

"I also want to take Sichuan all at once, so that it will be much easier. Zhang Xianzhong has just entered Sichuan, and his foothold is not stable. The problem is that we have to have enough cadres. Zhang Zhimu said, "No, we can take Sichuan first, and then take the Central Plains." ”

"I think it's okay," Ouyang He said, "and you must have enough cadres to enter Sichuan, because it is closed there, and you can't do it without cadres." The Central Plains is very close to us, and it is convenient to call personnel. ”

"These things, Uncle Chen and Mr. Ouyang can study them first, no matter what, let's not move for the time being, and wait for me to stabilize Shaanxi."

I don't know how the people of Sichuan will feel when they know that their fate is in the hands of three people in a carriage. Things in the world are often like this, some seemingly unrelated places and people can determine people and things in other places.

When Zhang Zhimu and his convoy came to the reservoir construction site, Li Wei, Li Yunhe, and Tang Jingyao were already waiting here.

Seeing that Zhang Zhimu and so many people came at once, Li Yunhe was happy, "Hehe! Today, the heads of our kilns are here. Li Wei, your cannon battle is going to sound! ”

"You can rest assured about my business!" Li Wei replied.

Tang Jingyao was different from them, so he stepped forward to give a salute and asked everyone to get off.

As soon as Zhang Zhimu got out of the car, he said to Tang Jingyao: "Mr. Tang, look, we are all here to cheer you on." How was the artillery battle today? ”

"General Li Wei said that everything is ready, and you can light the fire as soon as you arrive." After Tang Jingyao finished speaking, he led everyone to a prepared viewing spot on the west bank of the Hutuo River. Tables and chairs have been set up here, and binoculars have been placed on the tables. Although it was still very cold, it was a good day, and the sun was shining warmly on me.

After everyone sat down, Tang Jingyao came to the front, pointed to the opposite bank and introduced to everyone: "Let's look at the east of the river." It's the bag between the mountains on both sides, and we've drilled a few rows of holes in the bag. General Li Wei personally led people to place ** there, *** are all Yangchang They specially helped with the new design. The original *** current is not enough, and it cannot guarantee that so many explosion points will detonate at the same time. After a while, we want to blow up the mountain bag and divide it on both sides to form a river. In the future, the water of the Hutuo River can be diverted from where, bypassed from behind, and returned to the Hutuo River downstream. In this way, we can intercept the Hutuo River here. Then we can build the dam. ”

"I said Mr. Tang, you have been tossing for so long, and the dam has not started to be built yet?" Yan Boju was obviously not satisfied with the progress.

"Mr. Yan, you don't know anything. There is a lot of work in the early stage of building the dam. Tang Jingyao knew that Yan Boju didn't understand, so he didn't explain much, "Mr. Zhang, if there is no other problem, I will notify General Li Wei and start detonating, right?" ”

"Good! We can't wait. Zhang Zhimu said.

At this time, Li Wei and Li Yunhe were already in a speedboat and arrived at the detonation point on the other side of the river. Zhang Zhimu used a telescope to look at the detonation point, and suddenly said, "Mr. Tang, don't detonate yet." Where is the radio station, I want to contact Li Wei. ”

"You come with me!" Tang Jingyao led Zhang Zhimu to a simple room at the back. This is the radio room. There was a fire in the radio room, and it was still warm. Zhang Zhimu picked up the radio and called Li Wei, "Li Wei Li Wei!" Hear it, please answer! ”

"Is it Mr. Zhang? I'm Li Wei! ”

"It's me, I found that your detonation point is too close to the blasting area, and the danger is too great! You should evacuate backwards. ”

"Are you alright? It's already far from here! ”

"No! Immediately evacuate backwards. It's so powerful to blow up the mountain bag that I don't want to blow it up with you. ”

"There are too many lines to extend!" Li Wei was reluctant.

"Don't talk nonsense, it's an order!" Zhang Zhimu was very resolute.

After a while, Li Wei's voice came from over there again, "Okay! We retreated behind the big rock in the back. ”

Returning to his seat, Zhang Zhimu said to Chen Yufeng: "Li Wei, the detonation point is too close to the detonation area. The flying rocks that exploded in a moment probably knocked their detonation point flat. I've made them retreat. The bastard was still reluctant, and in a moment they knew it was awesome. ”

"Huh! This kid doesn't know how many ** he has installed, and he doesn't know how powerful. Chen Yufeng said, "They specified that they were afraid that they would not be able to explode, so they could release as much as they could." ”

"They're using an ammonium ladder this time, and we'll see how powerful it is." Zhang Zhimu said, "We must master large-scale blasting technology. With this technology, many of our projects will be much faster in the future. ”

From the telescope, I saw that a group of people on Li Wei's side were constantly busy, because there were too many explosion points and many lines, and they couldn't be sloppy. It took a long time for Li Wei and the others to retreat behind a big rock in the back. From Zhang Zhimu, they can no longer be seen in their current place. However, Li Wei and the others only moved the equipment, and the shed that was originally built at the detonation point was not moved.

Tang Jingyao came over and asked, "Mr. Zhang, General Li, they are ready." Can it be detonated? ”

"Let's detonate!" Zhang Zhimu said, "Otherwise, we will freeze to death." ”

Tang Jingyao hurriedly ran over and informed Li Wei on the radio.

After waiting for a while, there was still movement, Yan Boju couldn't help it, "What are you waiting for this little rabbit cub?" ”

At this moment, the earth under his feet trembled, the mountain bag in front of him bulged, and then the smoke rolled, and a shocking explosion came, and the shock wave caused by the explosion blew everyone dare not face it head-on. As the earth trembled, the stones on the mountain behind Zhang Zhimu and them all rolled around. The waters of the Hutuo River are stirring up. Quite a few people are holding their hands on their chests. Everyone was mentally prepared for the big bang, but the power of the explosion was far beyond imagination.

Everyone calmed down a little and picked up their binoculars to look at the mountain bag. Obviously, Li Wei and they loaded too much **, and the mountain bag not only exploded, but it simply blew up a big hole. Looking at the shed that originally started the explosion, it has long been smashed by big rocks and disappeared.

Zhang Zhimu was afraid for a while, if he hadn't been more resolute, Li Yunhe and Li Wei, the two generals, would be gone along with those elites.

But even though Li Wei retreated a long way, someone was still injured by the falling stones, but fortunately, the injuries were not serious. From the binoculars, Zhang Zhimu saw Li Wei and Li Yunhe running to them, and the original detonation point was being checked.

Chen Yufeng couldn't help but scold: "Little rabbit cub, this time you are picking up a life!" ”

Zhang Zhimu saw that Li Wei and Li Yunhe were both rushing over here and waving their hands. I'm afraid they're even more afraid. But they didn't stop long and walked towards the blasting site. It could be seen that they were also stunned by the situation at the blasting site. In the blink of an eye, the original mountain bag turned into a long pit. ** is much more powerful than they think. Now the Hutuo River is full of broken ice. It flows through this closer river. The ice on the Hutuo River was shattered. Many of the large rocks on the mountains on both sides of the mountain were also shaken down. It feels like the mountains have been adapted. Li Wei and Li Yunhe were shocked even more, and some of them had to vomit. Now their ears are rustling.

This explosion was recorded by a reporter sent by Editor-in-Chief Fan with photos. This time the report was shaken in the kiln, and a "bang" could be heard.

After watching the blasting, Tang Jingyao led everyone to visit the construction site. After the blasting, the workers got back to work. Tang Jingyao said: "We now have at least 20 tractors working on the site every day, and with them, we are much more efficient." Today's blasting was successful, and we immediately pushed the barrage towards the center of the river. Strive to achieve the dragon before the beginning of spring. ”

"Mr. Tang, this Chinese New Year, everyone is so busy, but we must do a good job for everyone in terms of food." Zhang Zhimu said.

"Don't worry! Mr. Zhang, fifteen years ago, there were at least two meat and vegetarian dishes a day, as well as various small pickles to cook broth. Tang Jingyao said, "Usually our food is also good, and there is meat every day." Those new workers on the construction site said that the Chinese New Year was not as good as our usual food. ”

Li Yunhe and Li Wei returned to the West Bank after watching the blasting site and met Zhang Zhimu. Li Wei said embarrassedly: "Oops! Mr. Zhang, thanks to you, I didn't want to withdraw at that time. Hehe! If it weren't for your insistent orders, we would all be done today. ”

Chen Yufeng said: "You little rabbit cubs have picked up their lives and come back. Scared, right? ”

"I was frightened," Li Wei said, "but when Mr. Zhang gave me the order, he was frightened." Mr. Zhang has never given such a serious order. I didn't dare to slack off when I heard the order."

Yan Boju came over and said, "If you weren't serious, you kid would definitely not take it seriously." Have you always felt that you are very capable? ”

"Hey! No, no," Li Wei was embarrassed and quickly changed the topic, "The next time we blast the mountains on both sides of this dam, we will know the severity." ”

"When will you blast these two mountain bags?" Zhang Zhimu asked.

Tang Jingyao took over and said: "You see that the foundation pits of the anti-seepage walls on both sides have been dug up. We wanted to wait a few days for the weather to be warm and not freezing, so we started pouring with cement. The impermeable wall was built. We used blasting to pile up the soil and rocks on the mountain directly onto the anti-seepage wall, and then trimmed them to form an earth-rock dam. ”

"Good! Mr. Tang, if your reservoir can generate electricity, at least our Shanxi will be able to use electricity temporarily. We are waiting for your good news, if there is any difficulty, just say, we leaders are here. Zhang Zhimu said.

"Well, Li Yunhe, they have to give us some of their new crawler transport vehicles first. Tractors also need some. "Tang Jingyao saw that there was such an opportunity, so he could let it go.

Zhang Zhimu said to Li Yunhe: "Did you hear that? Mr. Tang, this is our top priority. There are good things, and they must be given priority. ”

"I already knew!" Li Yunhe said.

At this time, a person came over from the radio room and said to Zhang Zhimu: "Mr. Zhang, Miss Yang Yulin just called and asked me to tell you that there is an urgent decree." Please go back as soon as possible. ”
