In the afternoon of that day, Wang Tieshu leisurely talked with the Tokugawa family about the wind and the moon; Lu Yao and Ye Feiyang excitedly negotiated and signed a formal treaty with the shogunate officials; When Chen Deng, Rui Deyi and others were busy overhauling "Keelung Ship" and "Kaohsiung Ship", Bai Baoxiang took his entourage to climb slowly on the mountain road of Shiqiu Ridge.

It is now January, and the grassroots political power in the villages and villages in northern Taiwan has been initially established, and the organization of the Chinese Rejuvenation Pioneer Group is also in full swing.

In addition to being responsible for the daily work of the executive committee, Bai Baoxiang also serves as the secretary of the Keelung County Party Committee. During this time, he kept going deep into the villages and villages in Keelung County, and personally guided the work of the grassroots political power in various villages in Keelung.

Two days ago, a group of immigrants in the Keelung quarantine camp expired, and 500 people were assigned to Nuan Nuan. Bai Baoxiang was a little worried about the resettlement situation, so he specially took the time to go over to check today.

In winter, it is the rainy season in Keelung, and the mountains are surrounded by white clouds and mist, and the continuous drizzle moistens the mountains like ghee.

Bai Baoxiang and others wore standard raincoats and staggered to the top of the mountain, and the rain was continuous like a string of beads, like a curtain covering the line of sight. Only one outline can be seen in the Keelung River valley to the south, and only a thin line remains on the official road below the mountain.

Standing on the ridge, Bai Baoxiang took a breath and walked south twice, not wanting to slip on one foot, the person stumbled, and the guard grabbed him quickly.

"Chairman Bai, be careful!" Dinks looked at Bai Baoxiang with concern.

Dinks is Bai Baoxiang's secretary, a native of Tai'an, Shandong, and a graduate student majoring in mechanics. He especially likes to read miscellaneous books, and calls himself a half-hung history lover and a half-hung lover of ancient literature.

"It's okay, my legs and feet are fine!" Bai Baoxiang looked at the misty Keelung River Valley, "Let's go, let's go down!" ”

To the south of Lion Ball Ridge is the Keelung River Valley. Nuannuan, Ba, Seven, Liu, Wu and other streets are located in the river valley.

At this time, it was an era of inconvenient transportation, and the Keelung River became an important transportation route due to the convenience of water conservancy, and various settlements along the riverbank rose up and were built along the river. "Block" means earthen wall and earthen wall, which is believed to be related to the reclamation of the Han people, and the construction of earthen wall fortifications to defend the aborigines is related, and the settlement in the name of "blocking" is related to this.

"Boom!" There was a muffled sound down the hill.

Dinks said tentatively, "I heard that the tunnel under the mountain can be opened today, so when we go back, don't work so hard!" ”

Speaking of the tunnel under the mountain, thinking of Lin Dejia sitting under the mountain, Bai Baoxiang couldn't help but sigh. Since breaking up with Lin Dejia, Bai Baoxiang has devoted himself to work, there is a lot less tea and dinner, and people are haggard.

Similarly, Lin Dejia is also focused on work. After the construction of Huwei Port began to take shape, Lin Dejia transferred the base camp of the infrastructure corps to Nuan Nuan.

It is about 50 kilometers from Keelung to Taipei, and the team is preparing to build a coal and iron industrial zone with Xizhi as the center, in which transportation is the first.

There are many supporting projects of Taipei Xizhi Steel Plant in the Keelung River Valley. In order to ensure the transportation of raw materials and goods, the Shiqiu Ridge between Keelung and Taipei needs to dig two tunnels through the mountain, one through the road and the other through the railway, and four teams excavate from both ends of the mountain at the same time. In addition, a series of bridges need to be built over the Keelung River to connect roads and railways respectively.

Sister Lin is known as a cold-faced female man, and she is an expert in infrastructure technology, seeing her come to the front line to guide and supervise, all the construction work surfaces are nervous, and no one dares to slack off, the infrastructure projects in this area are like installing accelerators, and the speed is much faster.

Entering the Keelung River Valley, the continuous rain has turned into a cold and lonely mist, white suspended in the valley, ~ thick and sticky, as if you can pinch out the water by grabbing a handful.

Although the rain stopped, the colors of the green trees became brighter, and from time to time there were water drops on the branches and leaves on the treetops, drifting to Bai Baoxiang's face. took out a towel, wiped the foam on his face, and looked at the gap between the rocks, the clear spring bubbling and the trickle, Bai Baoxiang's mood was much better.

Down to the bottom of the ridge, in front of it is a simple pontoon bridge that spans the Keelung River. Four steel cables are firmly fixed on both banks, and the pontoon boat is the bottom, which is supported by a layer of pallet on the steel cable, which can be used for people and vehicles to pass.

Nuan Nuan is an important passage in and out of Keelung, and the Executive Committee has specially arranged for a squad of police to be stationed here. There is a checkpoint at the entrance of the bridge, where a policeman and a member of the joint defense team are guarding.

Seeing a group of people coming down the mountain, all of them were tall and extraordinary, and they were all wearing the standard raincoats of the Ming army, Wu Jia muttered a little in his heart, I heard the boss say, Lord Jian Guo is going to come to warm up in the next few days, can't it be this group of people!

Wu Jia is a police officer in the Nuan Nuan police class, he was originally a member of the Dadaocheng Lower Suburbs Guard, after the Ming Army entered Monga, the lower suburbs took the initiative to express their effectiveness, Wu Jia and other escort personnel were hired as police officers after some education and training.

Wu Jia was pondering, and the joint defense team member next to him couldn't bear it, he grabbed the harpoon and jumped out at once, shouting from a long distance, "Comrade, this is a forbidden area, and no one is allowed to pass without a road!" ”

Listening to this familiar hometown dialect, Bai Baoxiang couldn't help but joke in Hokkien dialect, "Brother comrade! Now it is the Chinese Revival Revolution, the book has the same text and the same language, why do you still speak Hokkien dialect! ”

This joint defense team member is a half-grown boy, he touched his head hehehe, and played an unskilled Fujian official dialect, "My octopus was originally a fisherman, I don't know a single big character, this official dialect has just been learned, and I am not very proficient!" ”

He took the road slip handed over by Dinks and looked at it seriously, "This big red poke seems to be right?!" Comrade Wu, look at it, is the word on this right? ”

Bai Baoxiang has been busy in the countryside north of Keelung, and he hasn't been here yet, but Dinks has been here.

Wu Jia's eyes are more thief, and he has already recognized Dinks. Looking at Bai Baoxiang's style again, Wu Jia remembered that when he was receiving education and training, the tall figure standing on the rostrum, his heart suddenly changed. He hurriedly walked out of the sentry post, and fell to his knees with a plop, "Meet the prison country!" ”

As soon as the octopus heard that it was the Lord of the Prison who had arrived, he was so frightened that he fell to his knees in a hurry.

"You are policemen, members of the joint defense team, and all soldiers in the Chinese revolutionary team, and there is no need for this great gift in the army!" Bai Baoxiang soothed with kind words, and walked past the sentry post.

He said in his heart that the work of the Ministry of Etiquette is lagging too far behind, and it seems that the implementation of "Chinese Etiquette" must be stepped up. According to the "Chinese Etiquette" formulated by the Ministry of Rites, only the deceased deserve to kneel, except for parents and elders who kneel during the New Year's holidays.

Standing in the center of the pontoon, watching the turbulent river flow jubilantly under his feet, Bai Baoxiang couldn't help but raise his head and swept his gaze to the west.

The pontoon bridge is more than 50 meters to the west and is the construction site of the bridge construction brigade of the infrastructure construction corps. The bridge brigade was launched here at the same time to build the Nuannuan Highway Bridge and the Nuannuan Railway Bridge, which are only more than 40 meters apart. After more than a month of hard fighting day and night, the four abutments of the two bridges have been built on both sides of the river.

The riverbed is 80 meters wide, and the runoff has skyrocketed from 25 to 35 meters due to the rainy season.

The bridge construction brigade first built two cofferdams on both sides of the Keelung River. Then the water was pumped out, and then the foundations were dug to build four thick, large, explosion-proof abutments, which were not economical. There is also a large round arch left in the middle of each abutment, which is to protect against the impact of floods.

The four abutments are still being moisturized and maintained, and the insulation covering on the surface has not been completely removed. When the 40-day maintenance period is over, a large crane can be used to put a simple beam with a length of 35 meters on the two abutments, and then pour a thick layer of cement, and the main project of a bridge will come out.

On the other side of the river is an improvised road built along the river, and on one side of the hill is a long row of simple wooden houses. This is the shed where the soldiers of the infrastructure regiment rest, the east of the shed is next to Nuan Nuan Street, and to the west is the eight blocks.

In a relatively large simple room, there are structural schematic diagrams of bridges such as Nuannuan Railway Bridge, Nuannuan Highway Bridge, Eight Highway Bridges, and Seven Railway Bridges hanging on the wall.

"There is still one day in the maintenance period of the two abutments of the Nuan Nuan Highway Bridge, and there are four days in the maintenance period of the two abutments of the Nuan Nuan Railway Bridge, and the hoisting of the post-tensioned prestressed simply supported beam is about to be launched, and practice has proved that we are streamlined, and the construction of multiple bridges at the same time in batches is carried out, and the general direction is right, and it is technically feasible."

Lin Dejia waved his hand, "I have already discussed with Lin Youde, the Planning Commission, and when the hoisting of the Nuannuan Highway Bridge is completed, we will immediately work overtime to build the bridge piles of this series of bridges first!" Otherwise, when the water becomes more ferocious, the construction period may be delayed. ”

"Mr. Lin!" Wu Hou pushed the glasses on his nose, "It's the rainy season, and there are still four bridges and eight bridge piles from Nuan Nuan to Taipei." Without a large area of film, without additives, without a transfer pump, it would be a disaster to manually construct it in the rainy season. ”

Wu Hou is the captain of the bridge construction brigade, he was an engineer in a construction company and has rich experience in project management. Wu Hou has always been more cautious, and the construction of the bridge is a matter of a century-old plan, so he cannot but be cautious.

"You can build the cofferdam of the bridge piles first." Lin Dejia looked disapproving, "The Shiqiuling Tunnel will be opened in the next two days, as long as the Nuannuan Highway Bridge can be opened to traffic, the Planning Commission will try its best to ensure the supply of films, pumps, construction vehicles and other materials." ”

Wu Hou exchanged glances with Chen Suiyun, the deputy beside him, "Mr. Lin, we will definitely try our best to complete the task!" ”

Chen Suiyun is a native of Sanduao, Ningde, Fujian Province, majoring in civil engineering and water conservancy, and is good at building bridges and paving roads, and has done two projects throughout the process.

"It's not about trying, it's about ensuring that the task is completed!" Lin Dejia's sharp eyes stared at Wu Hou, "Taipei's large-scale development, transportation is the first!" ”

Her tone softened slightly, "This is a systematic project, paying attention to science not only requires the guarantee and supply of materials, but also needs to carry out full mobilization and deployment, careful planning and arrangement, thoughtful transportation services for vehicles, and hard work of all soldiers!" ”

As soon as Lin Dejia's words stopped, the communicator's joyful voice came from the outer duty room, "Chairman Bai, your old man is here!" ”

Then there was Bai Baoxiang's hearty laughter, "I just crossed the Lion Ball Ridge, let's go to you here to rest first." What about you Commander Lin? ”

Only then did the little soldier remember his duty, and hurriedly whispered: "Commander Lin is in a meeting!" ”

Then I heard "Shhh , probably Bai Baoxiang silenced everyone.

These simple wooden houses are simple and convenient to load and unload, but they are not soundproof. Seeing Wu Hou and Chen Suiyun couldn't help laughing, Lin Dejia glared at the two of them fiercely, and hastily announced the dismissal of the meeting, asking Wu Hou and Chen Suiyun to hurry up and make plans.
