Chapter 37: Moving Mountains and Reclamation (Part II)
A few minutes after eight o'clock, the music in the loudspeaker suddenly stopped, and the people in the venue didn't care at all. But soon, a loud military horn sounded from the loudspeaker, and all the people in the hall fell silent, and everyone looked up at the rostrum.
In the majestic march, Qian Shuiting, Lin Youde, Lin Anke, Hu Zhongzi and others walked on the rostrum, today is a formal occasion, Qian Shuiting and others all took off their training uniforms, put on the official robe of the Ming Dynasty, and the pot Zhongzi also changed into a robe.
Seeing Qian Shuiting appear on the stage first, the team of the infrastructure construction regiment first took the lead in applauding. Under the leadership of the village heads, the people of Keelung Bay also applauded. The applause at the venue at the top of Gangziliao Mountain became louder and louder, like thunder, and it lasted for a long time.
Qian Shuiting's chubby body sat down in the middle of the rostrum, he glanced at the audience comfortably, everyone in the stands had already sat down, he signaled to Lin Anke, Lin Anke raised a hand knowingly and waved it gently, and the applause gradually quieted down.
"Hey, aren't those two security chiefs?!" Xiaomi suddenly saw Wu Chang and Wu Yulin finally walk up to the stage and sit on both sides of the rostrum.
"Shhhh The voices were softer, and the adults were about to speak. Chen Qili, who was sitting next to him, said in a low voice, "The adults speak all official dialect, and the two security chiefs heard that they specialize in interpretation. β
Xiaomi closed her mouth, but muttered in her heart. During the Manchu Qing Dynasty, the people of Keelung Bay only knew Lin Guoshan, the prime minister of Keelung Street, and Master Lin. The chief is just an errand for Master Lin, and Wu Yulin is just the shopkeeper of Lin Guoshan's coal shop, and it is a dog's work. This Wu Chang and Wu Yulin were originally just two messengers under Premier Lin, since Daming came, Master Lin was so frightened that he fled to Monga, and Master Lin's two doglegs became more and more identious.
Just when he was thinking wildly, Lin Youde gently flicked the microphone on the stage, and the huge "tuk tuk" two sounds suddenly resounded throughout the venue.
Lin Youde first announced on behalf of the imperial court that Keelung County was officially established and appointed Lin Anke as the magistrate of Keelung County.
When Wu Chang translated in Hokkien, the venue suddenly burst into applause and cheers.
Mi's mother sat behind Xiaomi, and the "crackling" slap was particularly loud. She couldn't stop muttering, "Okay, we have also become a county here, and Keelung Street has become the county government, and this son will definitely become more and more prosperous." β
Xiaomi was also very excited, he saw that Chen Qili beside him was very excited, so he gently poked it with his hand, "Village Chief, Keelung Street has become the county government, Village Chief, you have to contact the county magistrate a lot, you can't give all the benefits to Wu Chang and Wu Yulin." β
Chen Qili thought so in his heart, but said in his mouth, "You can't say that, everyone is contributing to the court, how can you think about any benefits." β
On the stage, Lin Anke began to speak, he first told the people in the audience that two hundred years ago, although the Manchu Tartars entered the customs and forcibly occupied the Chinese artifact, they did not exterminate the Ming Dynasty, and the subordinates of the King of Ming Lu have been lying overseas to try their courage and vow to restore the country.
"My Daming is a Ming with red seedlings, not a fake and shoddy Daming. The Ming Dynasty, returning from overseas, hanged the people for the crime, and vowed to exterminate the Tartars and restore China~"
Then, Lin Anke talked about the significance of Keelung County, the future tasks of Keelung County, etc., he said a word, and Wu Chang followed the translation.
The legend of Daming overseas makes Xiaomi listen to it with relish. Lin Zhixian's later precepts Xiaomi didn't understand very well, and Wu Chang's translation made him feel very bored. Just as Mi Dafu was looking around and bored, Lin Anke's speech ended, and there was a burst of warm applause and shouts in the venue.
Suddenly, a loudspeaker let out a sharp shout, "Bring up the criminals who are fighting for the tiger and taking revenge!" β
Before Millet could figure out what was going on, she saw more than a dozen prisoners tied up on the rostrum. These prisoners, wearing paper-paste top hats, were escorted to the front of the stage, facing the people in the audience, and each one bent over and pleaded guilty.
"Isn't that Liu Er? What are you going to do! β
"In the morning, I heard from the chief of the security guard that the court would make an example of a hundred." Chen Qili sighed and shook his head, "This is also Liu Er's own fault." β
Except for Liu Er, these prisoners are all outlaws who have disturbed Keelung's peace in the past few days.
"Sa's mother, it's these Arhat feet that disturb everyone's peace!"
"These guys who killed a thousand knives should have slaughtered them all!"
During this time, there were people in Monga who came over the mountains and mountains every day to disturb them, and the people of Keelung were miserable. Listening to Wu Changyi announce the crimes of the prisoners one by one, the people of Keelung at the summit venue were all filled with righteous indignation.
Lin Anke announced on the spot that all the prisoners were sentenced to death and immediately executed. Wu Chang translated sentence by sentence, but read "...... The crime is extremely heinous, and not killing is not enough for the people to ......be indignant", there were earth-shattering cheers and cheers from the audience, and many Keelung people knelt on the ground, shouting "Lord Qingtian" while kowtowing to the rostrum.
Wu Qiolin immediately raised his fist and took the lead in shouting, "Down with the Manchu Tartar demons!" "All the recalcitrant rebels will perish!" β
Amid the deafening slogans, more than a dozen people were escorted off the rostrum one by one.
"I'm going to be killed!" The villagers on the top of the mountain suddenly became excited, and someone in the front row immediately picked up clods and stones from the ground and threw them at those prisoners.
The power of example is endless, and the people immediately follow suit, and the venue has been leveled, and there are not many clods and stones on the ground. Unable to find a tool to throw, some people rushed forward directly, ignoring the obstruction of the escort soldiers, and directly waved their fists.
It's so hilarious! The mood of the common people was immediately excited, and they all stood up, and some even stood on the stools. The view of the people in the back row was blocked by the crowd in the front row, so they rushed forward one by one. The crowd in front, pushed by the back row, poured towards the Jing Sentinel like chΓ‘o water.
"Boom! Boom! Boom! β
At this time, the ten-sided drum was beaten, and the low sound of the drum made people's hearts tremble, and the loudspeaker suddenly sounded the passionate sound of the military horn.
The crowd was startled, and everyone retreated in an uproar, and order was restored to the summit venue. The prisoners were smoothly escorted down the hillside below, lined up with their backs to the top of the hill. A red flag was raised on the rostrum, followed by a burst of gunfire.
"It's gone, it's better to kill the head."
Seeing that the prisoners held in the middle of the mountain fell to the ground one after another, Xiaomi licked her lips with her tongue, which was very regretful. He turned his head and asked Chen Qili gently, "Didn't you say the groundbreaking ceremony?" How has it changed? β
"Wu Chang said in the morning that the groundbreaking ceremony will be earth-shattering, so it should be put at the end."
"Earth-shattering?!" Mi Dafu was surprised.
"Isn't everyone talking about it just now, the construction of the Badouzi Power Plant will move mountains and reclaim the sea!"
Xiaomi's eyes widened, "Moving mountains and reclamation? Is Weng Daochang's words true?! β
Chen Qili nodded, "Of course it's true, I quietly asked Lord Tian, and the lady said the same thing." β
Mi Dafu glanced back and stood at the back of the venue. At the back of the hall stood rows of female cadets, all wearing wicker hats, wicker armor, and protective goggles on their faces, and Megumi Tanaka was among them.
He was very envious, "These women are too powerful. β
Chen Qili patted Xiaomi's shoulder, "Xiaomi, follow the court well, maybe one day you will become an adult." β
At this time, Qian Shuiting stood up on the rostrum and announced, "Daming Badouzi Power Plant has officially started. β
The whole venue immediately resounded with tsunami applause, and everyone stood up and cheered. Wu Chang and Wu Minglin shouted into the microphone, asking everyone to turn around and face the northern foot of Jilong Mountain in the distance.
As soon as Mi Dafu turned around, he heard a dull explosion suddenly sound in the direction of the northern foot of Jilong Mountain in the east, and then saw the entire northern foot of Jilong Mountain trembling gently.
The northern foot of Jilong Mountain is only three kilometers away from here, and the people on the top of Gangziliao Mountain feel that their feet are also shaking slightly. Before people could sit down on the benches, there was another deafening explosion.
With a huge roar, the entire Keelung Bay trembled! In order to achieve the best results, the demolition team placed about 900 tons of TNT in the belly of the mountain.
The people on the top of Gongziliao Mountain felt that the soles of their feet were constantly shaking violently. Before the exclamations of the people of Keelung Bay could be exited, they saw the entire northern foot of Jilong Mountain jumping like a crazy galloping horse in an instant. The huge stone mountain suddenly collapsed into countless pieces, and all of them flew up, overwhelming the sea, and thick smoke filled half of the sky.
The effect of the blasting is very ferocious, although Gangziliao Mountain is three kilometers away from the northern foot of Jilong Mountain. The shock wave rushed to the top of the mountain with dust, startling the sound of crying father and mother. The crackling of gravel flew like bullets, raining down on the mountain forest halfway up the mountain, breaking many branches alive.
The explosion was facing the sea to the north, and the top of Gangziliao Mountain was south-west, and the dust brought by the shock wave was very small, but it only made people's faces numb, and there was no major problem. There were also a very small number of stone grains flying over, wearing wicker hats, wicker armor, and protective goggles on their faces, and stopped them.
The explosion sounded, and Wu Chang's feet softened and he almost fell. He held the table with his hand, calmed down, and saw that Qian Shuiting, Lin Youde, Lin Anke and others on the rostrum were all straight, Wu Chang was respectful, after all, adults are adults, and extraordinary people can be compared.
Everyone on the rostrum stood silently, looking to the east. The people in the venue slowly quieted down, and everyone waited quietly.
The smoke and dust in the sky slowly dissipated, the people of Keelung all held their breath, the northern foot of the towering Jilong Mountain has disappeared without a trace, and the rocks that have collapsed like a rushing river flow into the sea, completely filling in the shallow Badouzi Strait in an instant, and Badouzi Island has been connected with the mainland.
Lin Yicheng was dumbfounded, he sat on the stool and muttered, "Moving mountains and reclamation, it's really moving mountains and reclamation!" β
