Chapter 216: Building a Bridge

Li Ziyin sneered: "If you want to take revenge, why wait for this flood to end?" Disaster relief and epidemic prevention can be completed in a short time, and reconstruction work is the longest project. As long as Li Hao shows flaws during this time, we can make moves against him. No matter how fierce the tiger is, when he takes a nap, I don't believe that he Li Hao can be flawless! ”

"You're right!"

Cui Baitai immediately supported Li Ziyin's statement, he has all thanks to Li Hao today, at this moment, I believe that no one hates Li Hao more than Cui Baitai.

"Li Ziyin, I am now in prison, it is very inconvenient to do things, from now on all the power of the Cui family in Hongzhou will be handed over to you to use. From today on, I, Cui Baitai, will be honest with you, as long as you can go out with me, I will form an alliance with you to deal with Li Hao together! ”

"Li Ziyin is very honored, and I will definitely live up to your trust. Don't worry, as long as the passage is open, I will be able to get you out of prison in less than half a month! ”

The two looked at each other at the moment, their eyes were full of sympathy, and their hands clapped together.

Dozens of miles north of Hui County, Li Hao led people to look at Qin Shubao's team across the water.

The riverbed on the outskirts of Hui County was dug up, and the flood was so terrible that the 20-meter-wide water blocked the road like a moat. The supplies from outside can't come in, and the people inside can't get out.

The grain in Huixian County can only last for nine days, and if the transportation channel cannot be opened within nine days, it will inevitably cause riots again.

Qin Shubao was extremely anxious on the other side, but Li Hao did not panic at all, because on the day he learned that the road was blocked by floods, he got in touch with Li Jiazhuang. The bridge-building force has already been deployed, and the time should have come today.

Sure enough, in the afternoon of the same day, a team of 100 people came to Qin Shubao with dozens of truckloads of materials.

"Li Zhou, the bridge engineer of Lijiazhuang, meet the Duke of Yiguo!" A man dressed in black respectfully saluted Qin Shubao.

Qin Shubao thanked him in return, and then pointed to the twenty-meter-wide flood in front of him: "Brother Li Zhou, I also sent someone to build a bridge to open the road a few days ago, but the water flow is too fast, and the ordinary wooden bridge can't support it, and it will soon be washed away." ”

Li Zhou smiled indifferently: "Don't worry, Guogong, the bridge in my Lijiazhuang is different from the ordinary one, just take a look!" ”

With a wave of Li Zhou's hand, the engineers of Lijiazhuang immediately began to act.

I saw that the tarpaulin on the carriage opened first, and countless building materials appeared in people's eyes.

Arm-thick steel bars, two or three centimeters thick steel plates gleaming in the sun.

Li Zhou took off his coat, revealing a body of strong muscles. He picked up a large sledgehammer and hammered a thick steel bar into the mud on the shore.

After hammering one rebar, I picked up another rebar and put it on top. If you don't have a tenon structure on the steel bar, you can make it very stable by fitting it together.

After inserting two steel bars into the ground, a steel plate with two horses parallel wide was placed on top to form a simple bridge.

In this way, they extended the steel plates like the center of the river one by one, and each steel plate was held in place by two thicker steels.

These rebars are then linked to each other to form a solid triangular shape.

In just two hours, a five-meter-long temporary bridge had been built.

The steel bridge is stable and remains untouched by the floodwaters. The heavy steel plates are extremely tough, and a fully loaded carriage will not bend when it walks up.

At this rate, the improvised bridge will be completed in less than three days, and the moat will be able to be rerouted.

Li Zhou built the bridge for several hours, and he was also a little tired, so he handed over the work in his hand to the deputy and went down the bridge to rest by himself. While wiping his sweat, he said to Qin Shubao: "This temporary steel bridge is an atlas drawn by the owner himself. We tried it before we came. Although the foundation of the temporary bridge was not deep enough. But there was nothing wrong with the emergency. ”

"That's good! Little brother, you rest first, I will personally lead someone to assist you in building the bridge, and strive to build this temporary bridge within two days! ”

Just do it, Qin Shubao commanded his army to start the action, although they did not have the professional knowledge to be able to list the busy work of the workers of Lijiazhuang, but it was no problem to do some carrying work.

A group of people worked in full swing, and the speed of building the bridge was significantly improved.

On the other side, Li Hao had already set up a tent, set up a recliner, and lay there leisurely to race the sun, admiring the work of Zhao Qiao on the opposite side.

A member of the Falcon Squad rode over and whispered in Li Hao's ear: "The seaweed is in the pot!" ”

"Well, keep watching, don't startle the snake!" Li Hao closed his eyes and said lazily.

The soldier immediately took the order and hurried back to Huixian.

"No wonder the prince wants to take us all out, leaving Miss Wan'er alone in Huixian County, it turns out that she is fishing!"

Liu Mao smiled bitterly, he had learned a lot from Li Hao during this time, but he still felt that he was still a long way from Li Hao. Unexpectedly, the moment he sent Cui Baitai to the dungeon, he had already planned to get to this point.

deliberately took his cronies away from Huixian to leave room for the enemy.

"The enemies who hide in the shadows are the ones who are really dangerous, and once they are in the light, we can see the moves. Okay, it's been so long, so let's take a good rest. It's still too busy to go back! ”

"Yes, Lord Wang!"

Liu Mao was also completely relieved and lay straight on his recliner.

In the face of the surging undercurrent of Huixian, he can still be so calm, and it is really easy to follow Li Hao to do things!

The two days passed in a flash, and when the last steel bar was driven into the ground to hold the temporary bridge in place, people on both sides of the strait could not help but cheer.

The erection of such a strong temporary bridge in such a short period of time was nothing short of a miracle during the Tang Dynasty.

Li Hao rested for two days, and completely recovered his energy, he turned over and got up, and personally met the bridge engineering team to erect guardrails on the bridge deck to prevent horses from slipping and accidents.

After another half a day, the transportation team led by Qin Shubao finally set off again and began to send truckloads of supplies into Huixian.

Li Hao and Qin Shubao reunited again, and they couldn't help but have a round of greetings.

Seeing countless grain and medicinal materials being transported non-stop to the direction of Huixian, Li Hao's heart can be regarded as completely down-to-earth, the food shortage in the city is completely solved, and then he can concentrate all his forces and start post-disaster reconstruction.

"Li Zhou, you use the remaining materials to build another bridge, and divide the entry and exit into two roads, which is more efficient! General Qin, I'm going to focus on leading the people to rebuild their homes, and the logistics and supplies are all up to you! ”

"Don't worry, Lord Wang, it's a matter of the people, and it's my duty to shirk!" Qin Shubao slapped his chest Bang Bang directly, which made people feel at ease.

At this moment, an unfamiliar transport convoy suddenly appeared on the opposite bank.

I saw this transport team waving a flag and writing a big Cui character on it. The wagons were fully loaded with high-quality wood, and at first glance they were prepared to help the people rebuild their homes.

Li Hao looked at the team and fell into deep thought, and after a moment, he laughed as if he had figured out something.

He pulled Qin Shubao and whispered something in his ear.

Qin Shubao nodded: "Don't worry, after returning to Chang'an, I will personally convey your words to the saint!" ”
