Zhang Zhongxing saw Zhang Longtan talking happily with the group of juniors who were working, and he also came over, "You have built this road so wide, you have to build it all the way to the foot of Huoyan Mountain, right?" There are a lot of rivers along the way. ”

"That's right!" The young man with a particularly loud voice raised his head and wiped his sweat, "It's to cultivate to the south of the fire mountain." ”

"What about the river?"

In this place of Taiwan, the depth is very shallow, and when it rains heavily, the river rises sharply, and when the water is full, it is endless, and the river is very wide; After the rainy season, many rivers dry up again. The Manchu Taiwanese government thought that the river could block the advance of people and horses, block the fighting, and prevent bandits from making trouble, and was indifferent to the erection of bridges, so there were few bridges in Taiwan, and most of them were ferries by boats.

Zhang Zhongxing used to be a fellow acquaintance of the Tamsui Department and was very familiar with the topography of Da'an River. Minamiseri is a village at the foot of Mt. Huoyan, and from the ferry, you have to pass through five rivers. When the water in this area is full, the stream is turbulent, and ordinary bridges cannot withstand the impact of the water at all, and the river crossing depends on ferries. After heavy rains, walkers have to wait for days before they dare to cross the river.

"It's okay, the deputy masters of the Ming army said that all these rivers have to build bridges." Hou Sheng smiled and pointed to the iron frame on the river, "See!" This is what kind of bridge-building machine, and the adults say that the bridge made with this thing is quite strong, and no matter how strong the water is, it is not afraid. ”

"No matter how big the water is, you are not afraid?!"

Zhang Zhongxing was shocked, when the water of Da'an River rose, the water potential was particularly fierce, and the river was nearly two miles wide.

At this moment, another explosion was heard in the direction of Huoyan Mountain.

Seeing Zhang Zhongxing and Zhang Longtan's nervous looks, Housheng smiled and told them that this was to open the mountain to take stones, and all the stones used to build the embankment were transported from the quarry.

The convoy lingered by the Da'an River for a while, and the cars crossing the river gradually became sparse.

"Hurry! Hurry up and cross the river. Ba Zehai of the Ninan Village Joint Defense Team began to shout, "There will be another team of cars later." ”

On the opposite side of the river is an anvil mountain more than 200 meters high, the north side of the mountain becomes a cliff, straight into the bank of Da'an River, and the inclination of the other three sides is more than 45 degrees, and the shape is like an anvil used by a blacksmith to beat iron.

The convoy soon walked across the plank road and reached the foot of the anvil mountain.

The southern bank of Da'an Creek is also busy, with countless migrant workers busy building a road leading to the seaside port.

Looking at the number of people working on both sides of Da'an Creek, there are as many as five or six thousand, and then calculate one silver millimeter per person a day, as well as food and drink, and the consumption of materials, it will cost thousands of taels of silver a day. Zhang Zhongxing couldn't help but have a trace of doubt, at the beginning of this Ming bandit's entry into Taiwan, he had not yet appeased the people's hearts, so he spent huge financial and material resources and was busy building bridges and paving roads, what was his intention?

Standing on the edge of Da'an Creek, he looked at the other side of the river, and the mountains in the distance were like a brilliant flame under the illumination of the setting sun. The geology of Huoyan Mountain is composed of gravel, laterite and sand, due to the soft soil, eroded by wind and rain, the gravel is washed and accumulated, and the grass and trees do not exist, forming a red rock layer.

Zhang Zhongxing said in his heart, could it be that there is no secret in this Huoyan Mountain!

This really made Zhang Zhongxing guess right.

There is an oil and gas belt on the western coast between Houlong Creek and Da'an Creek, which is hailed by geologists as the most promising Anvil Mountain oil and gas field in Taiwan. In this oil and gas field, there are two major anticline structures arranged in parallel with each other, with a horizontal fault of about 2 kilometers, which is called the Anvil Mountain anticline in the south and Tongxiao anticline in the north, and the anticline folds are gentle, and the axial direction is north-north-east, with a total length of no more than 15 kilometers. According to the data obtained by Lei Nianping, the crossing team selected two points in Nanshili at the foot of Huoyan Mountain as drilling targets for Well No. 1 and Well No. 2 in the Anvil Mountain Oilfield.

The large open space inside the fence is now used to traverse and stack drilling equipment and chemical equipment transported from the original time and space, and the chemical park that will be built in the future. The infrastructure corps dispatched 1,000 people, and the Miaoli county government also mobilized 5,000 migrant workers to go into battle together, hoping to build a road directly to Nanshili as soon as possible and send the drilling rig to the preset drilling location.

It was already early, and the convoy continued south along the official road, and five miles away was the camping camp for tonight.

Dajia is only eight miles away from Da'an Port. In the last years of Qianlong, Da'an Port became an important landing port for immigrants in central Taiwan, and its trade was developed, which was the heyday of Da'an Port.

In the middle and late Qing Dynasty, Dajia was an important stronghold in central Taiwan, stationed in Dajia for inspection, and the North Road Association for the garrison. Whenever there is turmoil in Taiwan, as long as Dajia is controlled, Taiwan's north-south communication can be controlled.

After the Ming army took Dajia, they took Dajia Castle as the seat of Miaoli County, and sent a company of garrisons.

Dajia Castle was built in the Daoguang period, with Zhenlan Palace as the center, there are four city gates, the city wall is used to be the stream stone of the Dajia River bed, and then the outside is mixed with lime, brown sugar and rice crackers to form a pulp and painted, the circumference is 510 zhang, and the height is two zhang

The convoy stopped at an inn outside Dajiatu City.

As soon as Zhang Zhongxing and the others moved in, night began to fall, and the street lights on the main roads around Tucheng were all lit.

Because the area around Dajia is a planned petrochemical park, the Ming army built a small thermal power plant in Da'an Port to provide energy security for urban construction and industrial development.

"What the hell! Brighter than the moon on the fifteenth. ”

The convoy was all shocked, they had never seen such bright lights before!

"This is an electric light, I heard from the adults of the county office, it is lit by electricity, and it is the same as the lightning in the sky." The innkeeper said with a smile, "The lights at Da'an Port and Da'anxi Ferry are brighter, and I don't know how many lights there are." ”

Standing outside the house, looking at Da'an Port and Da'an River Ferry in the distance, the brilliant lights reflected half of the sky, and Zhang Zhongxing couldn't speak for a long time. He remembered the words in the pamphlet "The Iron Curtain Falls", "There is no unstable farming, no work, no strength, no business, no wealth, no soldiers." "Could this be what the Ming bandits are talking about industrialization!

Zhang Zhongxing read the books of sages, did not believe in gods or ghosts, and firmly believed that everything should have a saying. Thinking of the Ming army's strong ships and cannons, and then all kinds of strange tricks, Zhang Zhongxing regretted that he left too early, he should have penetrated into the Ming bandits and listened carefully.

At night, although the north bank of Da'an Creek is full of brilliant lights, there is no scene of work in full swing during the day.

On the east side of the official road is the living quarters of migrant workers. After a tiring day's work, the migrant workers took a break after eating enough in the dining shed ~ Meimei, and then they lined up in a group of 30 people and a group of 30 people impatiently to enter the big playground.

A large white cloth has been pulled up on the playground, and the 16-centimeter small movie projector, supporting speakers, screens, and power supply equipment have all been installed.

As soon as the horn music sounded, the noisy voices on the playground suddenly disappeared, and everyone waited quietly with bated breath.

After the red flag of the sun and moon floated across the screen, the five big characters of "Pirates of the Caribbean" jumped out.

Seeing the stormy ocean, the playground was suddenly jubilant, and they watched "History of the Earth", "History of Manchu Crime", "The Age of Discovery", and "Industrial Revolution" for several days in a row.

Soon, the vivid characters on the screen, the vivid and bizarre storyline, and the spectacular naval battle scene on the ocean completely attracted the attention of the migrant workers.

At 8 o'clock in the evening, a company of troops loaded with live ammunition entered the north bank of Da'an Creek and completely blocked off a large area south of Rinan Village and on both sides of the official road.

At half past eight, Hu Huoke, Ao Sayang, and Kohler accompanied Lin Youde, Lin Dejia, and Fan Hua to the north bank of Da'an River.

The North Shore Warehouse is an arranged material delivery point, and tonight there will be 100 large trucks full of oil drilling equipment, gas gathering and transportation equipment, and chemical plant equipment from the original time and space. More than 1,000 tons of materials had to be crossed, and Lin Youde and Lin Dejia were a little worried, so they came to guide the work.

Standing at the North Shore Ferry, everyone can clearly hear the "stormy waves of the Caribbean Sea".

Hu Huoke, the lieutenant colonel of the infrastructure engineering regiment, said with a smile, "Some time ago, I showed all political propaganda films to migrant workers, and today in order to cooperate with the crossing operation and not alarm them, I specially changed a wonderful feature film." ”

On the north shore at night, the lights were bright, and the sentinels were all hidden in the backlit shadows. When you see someone coming, you immediately shout loudly and ask for the password.

The commander of the third battalion, Kohler, was full of confidence, "This area is completely blocked, and not a single outsider will enter this area. ”

There is a circle of electric lights on the wall of the large warehouse, and an arc lamp is also lit in front of each large warehouse, and these many strong lights illuminate the inside of the wall as bright as day.

A few people passed through the gate and walked into the large warehouse. Passing through the rows of greenhouses, a wall blocked everyone's way, and there was a gate on the wall.

Huhawk took out the key and opened the door, which was open to a flat space.

Six men walked in, and Huhawk slammed the door shut. Now there are just a few of them, and the surroundings are quiet, only the sound of "Pirates of the Caribbean" sent by the wind from time to time.

Lin Youde took two steps, squatted on the ground, and gently touched the ground with his hands, "Yes, the roller is as smooth as a water mirror, and even the airport for beginner teaching is fully qualified." ”

"The requirements for the six ups and downs of the beginner are very low, and it is not difficult to build an airport!" Lin Dejia smiled, the construction of Taoyuan Airport, which has taken off and landed in the sixth year of junior education, is the next stage of work of their infrastructure engineering team.

"Isn't this talking about a petrochemical industrial park? How did it become an airfield. Ao Sayang suddenly jumped up, "Your Planning Commission has revised the plan, and the infrastructure construction group knows about it, and you won't discuss it with our county." ”

Ao Sayang listened to the fork, he is a straightforward person, likes to be more truthful, and is easy to drill the horns.

Dizzy, is it easy to be ambiguous in the Chinese language we say?

Lin Youde and Lin Dejia hurriedly explained that the airport was planned to be built in Taoyuan, not here.
