243.The Battle of the Lighthouse
Tuesday, 6 July 1982.
The sixth day of the fifth month of the year of Renxu.
Weather......
Very bad!
Early in the morning, the sound of the loudspeaker was heard in an unprecedented tone:
ββ¦β¦ All localities have strengthened the education of the three loves for farmers, cadres and party members have taken the lead in handing over more grain and handing over good grain, and the national summer grain requisition has entered a climax, and the thirteen main producing provinces and cities have requisitioned more than 16.7 billion catties, completing 87% of the plan......"
"Sneer, sneer......"
"Jiangnan Province weather forecast, please pay attention to the coastal comrades, Typhoon No. 8217 Owen officially entered China's territorial waters at about 4 o'clock in the morning today, and is expected to affect the Wengzhou area at noon today.
"This typhoon is a severe tropical storm that made landfall in Kyushu, the main island of Japan, and caused serious damage to Nagasaki, Fukuoka, Saga, Kumamoto and other cities. Affected by this strong typhoon, there will be a wide range of storms and rains in most parts of our province, please prepare for wind and rain......"
Wang Yi listened to the sound of the radio, picked up the raincoat he had just bought last night, pushed open the door and walked out.
Yesterday it was still a sunny day.
Today is already a black cloud that is about to destroy the city.
No matter which direction you look at, the sky is dark, and the entire ocean is almost shrouded.
It is said that the storm was quiet before, but now the sea is not quiet, the waves are rushing to the end of the island one after another, slapping on the reef beach, slapping on the shore, the momentum is violent, like a soldier attacking the city!
Wang Yi's face was solemn.
A big war is imminent!
This announcement is not a call for members to get up or go to work, today the members are very conscious, they all get up very early, the strong laborers are divided into groups, and then carry ladders, carry nets, find stones and start to strengthen the roof.
What they have to do is simply cover the dry seaweed on the roof with an old net, and then tie the stones to the net, and use the stones to hold down the seaweed on the roof to prevent it from being blown away.
As long as the seagrass is not blown away, the seagrass houses on Tianya Island will provide better shelter from the wind and rain than the thatched houses inland, and these seaweeds are large-leaved seaweeds that absorb water when they dried.
Therefore, once it rains, they will absorb water and expand, and then they will be more tightly covered together to better block the infiltration of rainwater.
The roof of the school building also needs to be maintained, and the bold militia team is busy, and when Wang Yi came out, half of the roof of the school building was covered with nets.
Wang Yi went over and looked.
The nets were discarded fishing nets from the past, broken and unshaped, and were tied up by the women to protect the roof.
After the typhoon passes, they will be collected and put into the treasury, which is all collective property.
The islanders are busy preparing for the typhoon.
Some ships docked on Tianya Island, and some people ran into the brigade committee.
Then Wang Xianghong ran out, he ran to the school and shouted: "Militia, militia, assemble!" β
His voice was very hurried, and the strong men and young men who were busy with their work knew that there was something important, and quickly put down the work in their hands and ran over without even putting down the tools in their hands.
Boldly shouted on the roof: "Grass, you carried the ladder away, how can I go down!" β
Wang Dongyi suddenly pushed the ladder back.
The militia quickly assembled, and Wang Xianghong said quickly: "The commune leader has an order, the lighthouse on Dapeng Island has been repaired and strengthened recently, and now there are some problems, and we need the militia squads of our production teams to gather to carry out support work." β
"It's urgent, don't talk nonsense, you don't have to change your clothes, bring two days and three days of food, bring a hat and a coat and hurry over, you shouldn't be able to come back before the typhoon leaves!"
Boldly saluted and asked, "Branch Secretary, are you leading our production team?" β
Wang Xianghong frowned.
He looked at Wang Yi, Wang Yi understood what he meant, and asked, "I'll lead the team?" β
Wang Xianghong said: "Bold and courageous, but he is easy to be reckless when encountering major events, in the past, when there was a need for the militia to go out collectively, I led the team, but today someone has to preside over the flood control work on the island, so ......."
"I will do my best to protect our members." Wang Yi saluted and said.
Wang Xianghong Zhengse looked at the militia squad and said, "I won't talk nonsense......
"Don't worry." boldly rushed to say, "We must obey Mr. Wang's orders, Mr. Wang is the captain, and I am the vice captain!" β
Wang Dongfeng said with a smile: "Yes, you must listen to Mr. Wang's instructions, Mr. Wang will never go to the east, and Mr. Wang will never kill chickens if you drive dogs!" β
Wang Xianghong glared at him angrily and said, "Don't talk nonsense, then you guys are ready to set off immediately, and the stone officer of the commune will go to the boat and wait for you." β
Wang Yi said: "Wait for me for a minute - the branch secretary, we may not be able to come back in a day or two, right?" β
Wang Xianghong said: "Yes, you can rest assured that I will take care of it at home, and Teacher Xiaoqiu will not have an accident......
"I'm not worried about my family." Wang Yi shook his head and turned around and ran towards Tingtaoju.
He bought more than 20 pieces of windproof jackets last night, which were originally intended for the members of the club, after all, it was a typhoon, and it was inevitable that someone would have problems, so Wang arranged a commando team to the Red Cross Society, and whoever needed help set off immediately against the wind and rain.
Now he wants to lead the team to Dapeng Island, so he has to give one to the militiamen, and he handed over the rest to Wang Xianghong and said: "I used to ask my classmates to buy it, and I have long known that there will be thunderstorms on our outer islands in summer, so I prepared raincoats for the members who go out on duty during the rainstorm." β
Wang Xianghong was overjoyed after getting the raincoat and said: "Teacher Wang, you are really long-term, you are really like the military advisor in the commentary, take one step to see three steps and plan ten steps!" β
After the militiamen got the raincoat, they opened it and said, "Mr. Wang, this raincoat is good, why do you still have a cover?" What is it? Glass? No. Plastic? It's not like it, it's nice. β
"It's better than the raincoat worn by the workers in the city, this raincoat clothes and pants are separated."
"Look, it's two-layered, and the rainproof cloth is two ......."
"Let's talk about it on the boat, let's go." Wang waved his hand to Hong.
Wang Yi picked up a mountaineering bag while running, and at the same time did not forget to turn around and shout: "Branch secretary, take care of my dog, don't have an accident with the four puppies!" β
Wang Xianghong shook his hand at him to signal that he was reassured.
After they went home to pack up, they ran onto the commune's boat, and a middle-aged man with a serious face on the boat said anxiously, "Why did you come here?" Hurry up and go, the further back the sea winds, the stronger the wind, and now the edge of the typhoon has affected our open sea. β
The motor boat departed, and there were already some strong men and young men on board.
They are all members of the militia groups of the various production teams.
boldly saw Wang Yi carrying a big bag, and said: "Teacher Wang, give it to me, you sit tight, the boat must be shaking badly today." β
Wang Yi nodded and handed him the backpack.
There are instant noodles, chocolate, cocoa powder, ham and other foods, seeing what Wang Xianghong and the militia mean that they have had a hard time these two days, he has to prepare some food.
The people sitting on the boat were all members of the militia squads of each production team, and everyone knew each other, and someone greeted them soon after they dared to get on the boat.
Then someone turned their attention to the raincoat in their hand: "What are you guys doing here?" Why do you still have a glass cover? β
Wang Dongfeng shook it as if showing off: "You can only buy a raincoat in a big city." β
The person next to him reached out to take it and said, "Why does the raincoat still have a cover?" β
Wang Dongfeng didn't know either, he didn't want people to touch the new raincoat he hadn't even wore, so he stuffed it into his arms and hugged it.
The militia next to him wanted to rob, and Officer Shi said solemnly: "Don't make trouble, the sea is windy and rough, pay attention to safety!" β
He always kept a straight face, so the militia beat him up, and after hearing his words, they all quieted down.
The boat docked on Splash Island, and Officer Shi jumped on the pier and ran away.
After a while he returned.
Then there were no militia on Splash Island.
After waiting for a few minutes and no one came, he was very angry, so he walked quickly ashore with a straight face.
Wang Xianghai sneered: "Look at it, no one has come to Splash Island, their militia team has long been disbanded, and as soon as they heard about the big package, they went to their own families." β
Really.
Officer Shi's face turned blue when he came back, and he shouted to the people in the cockpit: "Go, leave them alone, damn it, go back and fix them!" β
A man named Shi Dazhang handed Officer Shi a cigarette, he took out a match and asked, "What's wrong?" β
Officer Shi leaned up and ordered a cigarette.
The sea is windy, and you can't light it.
Wang Yi took out the windproof light machine and lit it directly.
Officer Shi nodded and said, "Windproof lighter, good thing." β
He took a puff of cigarette and said: "The one on Splash Island is too slippery, I heard that there is no reward for going to Dapeng Island and refuses to move, this one says it hurts stomach, the other says it is dizzy, and one foams at home and says that it is a sheep epilepsy!" β
"Foaming at the mouth? Maybe it's really crazy. A young man said.
Officer Shi sneered: "Yes, and this day you said that it is difficult to deal with the epilepsy of the sheep, you have to send it to the hospital quickly, I still want to help - I am a cadre, I can't watch the masses get sick, I shouldn't have seen it." β
"As a result, I went up and smelled it, and it smelled of soapy water!"
The people on the boat burst out laughing.
Talent.
But Officer Shi was helpless, and he really couldn't help them.
These people are hob meat, and they are clearly unwilling to contribute to the collective work, and they all say that they have a headache and brain fever, so Shi has no problem.
He can't forcibly drag people away, can he?
This is called Lazhuang Ding, which is the old warlord style in the past, and our party's ranks do not do this kind of thing.
And Officer Shi was also afraid in his heart, if there was really someone who was unwell in the room, what would he do if something happened in the typhoon?
If he hurts someone, he has to be punished, and if he dies, he has to be expelled from the party.
The most feared thing is that someone will fall and be paralyzed, which is equivalent to him finding himself a father!
The boat went around the island to pick up people, and then came to Duobao Island with more than a dozen people.
Brothers Li Yansong and Li Yanhua are inside.
When the two of them saw Wang Yi, they immediately squeezed over and sat down, Li Yansong handed Wang Yi a bottle of wine and asked, "Teacher Wang has eaten breakfast?" β
Wang Yi nodded.
Li Yanhua handed Wang Yi a bun and said, "The pork and green onions are still hot." β
Wang Yi refused: "I've really eaten it, you haven't eaten it yet, have you?" β
"We ate too." Li Yanhua said, "This is the next few meals to be prepared. β
The two of them were prevaricating, but a man on the opposite side snatched it and salivated and said, "I didn't have breakfast, hehe, Mr. Wang, don't you eat it for me, I haven't eaten big meat buns during the New Year." β
Li Yanhua was immediately angry.
Wang Yi patted his knee and smiled at him, and smiled at the man again: "When our production team kills pork buns and meat buns during the Chinese New Year, you go over and eat a sturdy meal." β
When he said this, the big man was embarrassed and said, "I'm really hungry, I'll eat Yanhua." β
Li Yanhua said angrily: "Grass, you have taken it, can I still snatch it back?" β
The man immediately devoured it: "Well, it's so fragrant, it's really pure meat?" Your family has really dug up gold cakes and sold them for a lot of money, so you are really willing to make them. β
Several people looked at Li Yanhua.
I wanted to speak again and again, and my face was full of envy.
Li Yanhua said with a straight face: "Okay, okay Jin Er, you eat yours, why can't the big meat buns stop your mouth?" β
After picking up people at Duobao Island, the motor boat took two more islands and sailed to Dapeng Island.
The topography of Dapeng Island is very similar to Tianya Island, it is a mountain island on the sea, and from a certain angle, it looks like a big bird with constricted wings, so it is named Dapeng Island.
This island lacks fresh water and is an uninhabited island, but the island has a unique location, there are reefs under the water in this area, and it is a necessary place for Shanghai to go to the county, so a lighthouse was built on the top of the flat peak-
This is also very similar to Tianya Island, the top of the mountain is flat.
When the commune's motor boat came to Dapeng Island, the sky was already dark, and the clouds in the sky were even thicker, and the island was lonely and hung overseas, under the black clouds, and the sea was dark.
And then all of a sudden, the lighthouse lit up.
Wang Yi hurriedly covered his eyes.
Who is pretending to be forced, so dazzling!
The light of this lighthouse is really bright.
The sea breeze roared and roared to the island, and the angry tide swept over the shore one after another, and many snow-white splashes fell down, like a blizzard.
There is a small pier on the island, as the lighthouse is manned, and this pier is used for supply ships.
The motor boat cautiously approached the dock, and when they saw their arrival, someone hurried over, and then gestured to guide the motor boat to dock.
Wang Yi looked up at the mountain and the lighthouse.
The elevation of the top of the mountain can be used thirty or forty meters, the tower is more than 20 meters high, the tower body is the traditional red and white horizontal stripes, it looks majestic, it is the highest lighthouse on the outer islands.
The motor boat approached the dock in the strong wind, and Officer Shi threw away his cigarette butt and commanded to disembark.
More than a hundred men came down.
Shi Dazhang is related to Officer Shi, and he is also the captain of the militia squad of the production team, so he subtly became the new captain of the mixed team.
He asked the old man who had just commanded the ship to dock and said, "Uncle Qiang, what's the matter?" Why did you transfer us this day? β
Qiang Bo is the tower keeper of Dapeng Island, and he said with a bitter face: "This lighthouse was built in 83 years of the last century, and it has been a full 100 years now. β
"You see this lighthouse is made of cement and stone bricks, isn't it? Actually, no, it was made of wood, but in order to avoid being corroded by water vapor, a layer of cement and stone bricks was sealed on the outside. β
"It's been too long now, and some of the key parts of the wooden skeleton inside are not working, so the government wants to repair it, so it removed the stone bricks at the base and prepared to reinforce it from the bottom up."
"Originally, this plan was guided by an architecture professor at the provincial university, there is no problem, who would have thought that a big typhoon would suddenly come today?"
Li Yansong said with a gloomy face: "Who wouldn't have thought of it? As the old saying goes, it rains a lot on the summer solstice, and a typhoon is slow. The summer solstice has passed, and the typhoon will definitely come slowly! β
The other militia said, "Yes, yes." β
"What kind of professor is this? Don't even understand this? Don't mislead people, go home and farm. β
"That's right, we haven't studied for two years, but we know that there are many typhoons in July and August, and if I wanted to build a lighthouse, I wouldn't choose these two months."
Public resentment is boiling.
Originally, when a typhoon was coming, there were many things to do at home, and the typhoon was dangerous at sea, so no one wanted to go out at this time.
As a result, the Commune ordered all their strong laborers to be requisitioned from their homes, how could they feel comfortable?
There were several people standing on the shore behind the dock, and among them was an old man in a navy blue tunic and a blue military hat with an embarrassed face.
Wang Yi saw the bookish spirit in him and guessed that this was the professor from the provincial university, so he said to the others: "It's all here, don't complain, let's listen to the commune's arrangements first, see what we need to do, and strive to make some contributions to the country and society." β
"Well, you're so conscious." Someone pouted.
The people of the militia squad on Tianya Island couldn't hear anyone mocking Wang Yi, so they boldly immediately got into the crowd and grabbed a young man's collar and dragged him out: "What did you say, Mombi's slipper?" You come here and talk ......."
"Don't, let it go." Wang Yi hurriedly went up and pulled him away.
What he said just now was really useless and would only make people feel disgusted, he knew this, but he was embarrassed to watch the big guy complain and the old professor was embarrassed.
The people of the slippery group also wanted to come out, but they wanted to push and be bold, but the other militia members on Tianya Island and the Li family brothers stepped forward to stare at them, and they retreated into the crowd without hesitation.
Wang Yi pulled the bold away, tidied up the clothes for the slipper, and said with a smile: "This has nothing to do with the level of consciousness, that's what I said, we're all here, we can't leave if we want to, right?" β
"So we can only behave well, make a contribution in front of the leaders of the commune, and let the leaders help us get some benefits from the government in the future, otherwise? Playing tricks with the leaders and retreating with comrades? Aren't we here for nothing? β
"Not only did I delay my family's work, but I also got on the commune's blacklist, so is the gain outweighing?"
Jin Laoer, who had eaten Wang Yi's steamed buns, immediately said: "That's right, Mr. Wang is educated, he is right, we are already here, why are you complaining?" Work for credit. β
Officer Shi, who was busy reinforcing the motor boat, came over and asked, "What's the matter, what's the matter with you?" What was the noise just now? β
Everyone looked at Wang Yi.
Wang Yi said with a smile: "It's okay, I'll make a simple ideological mobilization for the comrades, and prepare to meet the challenge of the upcoming storm!" β
Officer Shi said: "It's best if it's okay, it's the leaders of the county's armed forces department and the commune leaders who called everyone here today, and it is up to the big guys to work together to help our county keep this lighthouse, so the big guys have to work hard." β
"It happened quite suddenly, and the intensity of this typhoon is quite severe, our commune is not prepared and can only call you over, because you are the most capable group of men in our commune."
"Don't worry, as long as this lighthouse is kept, then I will ask the county leaders for credit to you, I Shi Dashou is true to his word, and I will never fool you!"
Hearing him say this, the militiamen, who were not very good-looking, finally cheered up a little.
Shi Dashou arranged for a few people to fix the motor boat, and then looked at the old man in a tunic among the few people not far away and asked, "Expert Yi, come over and make arrangements to see how to arrange the work of our militia comrades is suitable." β
Expert Yi walked over and smiled kindly: "Comrades of the militia, comrades of the little comrades, in terms of age, I am your uncle and uncle, so it is inevitable that I will occasionally put up a shelf to make you uncomfortable when we deal with each other later." β
"When the time comes, I hope you can understand me more as an old comrade, the old comrades are not as lively as your young comrades, they may be more rigid in their work and speech, and they may inadvertently rely on the old and sell the old, I hope you understand."
"Then today you are here to help me, it is my work that has not been done well to disturb your rest and normal work arrangements, I hope you can understand more, and after this typhoon day passes, I will invite comrades to have a meal and a drink, okay?"
His words sounded good and promised to entertain a wine and food, and the militiamen's spirits were even more uplifted, and they shouted energetically: "Good! β
"Really?"
"Then you are a teacher, you are true to your word!"
Expert Yi smiled: "Yes, I will be true to my word, I am at this age, can I still shamelessly deceive you children?" Isn't it? β
"But I'm going to say ugly things ahead, when the typhoon comes, we have to work hard to protect this lighthouse, but we can't let it slip away. If anyone doesn't work hard, then don't blame me for not believing in my words and not inviting him to eat meat and drink wine. β
Shi Dazhang saw that the militiamen had no intention of resisting the work, so he actively patted his chest and said: "Professor, don't worry, our comrades on the outer islands are the most realistic, and they will definitely work hard for you, but what kind of work are we going to do?" β
Expert Yi said solemnly: "It's hard work, and I want to turn into nails and nail the ground and nail this lighthouse!" β
"What do you mean?" Li Yansong asked.
Expert Yi beckoned: "Let's go, you go up with me to have a look, let's look at the lighthouse and talk." β
They followed the mountain path to the top of the mountain.
At the front of the summit, a red brick fence was built.
This place is right on the top of Roc Island, as if it were wearing a blood-red crown.
Inside the wall is a tall lighthouse and a flagpole, and a flag is waving in the wind.
Seeing this red flag, Shi Dazhang asked: "Uncle Qiang, it will rain heavily later, why don't you lower this flag?" β
Uncle Qiang said leisurely: "According to the government's regulations, my work and the national flag must follow the sun, and when the sun rises, well, I will get up to raise the national flag, clean up, and wipe the lights." The sun is setting, well, I'm going to lower the flag and open the lighthouse. β
"...... Now"
"Where is the sun now?" Shi Dazhang interrupted him.
Qiang Bo Zhengse said: "I don't care if there is a sun or not, is there a sun in the national flag team raising and lowering the national flag on the Chengtianmen Square in the capital?" They only care about the hour, and they have to raise the flag when the sun rises, and they have to lower the flag when the sun sets......"
"Are you comparing your shabby place to Chengtianmen Square?" Shi Dazhang interrupted him again and laughed with a bunch of militiamen.
Qiangbo's face turned a little red, and he said: "I don't compare, I just learn from the example of the national flag class!" You juniors, you don't know how to be foolish! β
"There are ships going to Shanghai every day in this place, how many of them are foreign ships, do you know? I raised the five-star red flag to remind them that they have entered the waters of the People's Republic of China, and they must talk about China's laws and rules in doing things, and they are not allowed to mess around! β
Boldly hearing this, he immediately applauded.
Wang Yi led the militia team of Tianya Island to applaud.
The Li Yansong brothers, Jin Lao Er and others also applauded, so that the militia team was faintly divided into two factions.
Expert Yi sighed: "Old Comrade Song Guoqiang is a humble person who does not dare to forget the country, what he has done is worthy of his name, the country is strong, the country is rich and strong!" β
He looked at the militiamen and said solemnly: "Comrades, you should understand when you look at the style of this lighthouse, this is not the architectural style of our Chinese lighthouse, yes, it is a lighthouse built on the island after the Westerners invaded our country. β
"At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the country was not a country, the people were not at peace, and the European wind and rain came in a hurry, they opened our country from the sea with strong ships and artillery, and then continued to increase troops from the sea to invade our country, plundered our country's wealth, and returned to their country from the sea."
"In order to maintain the safety of the route, they have built many lighthouses on our outer islands, so the task of Comrade Song Guoqiang here is very heavy, do you think he is guarding a lighthouse?"
"Nope! It is the safety of our fishermen and enterprises from all walks of life, and the solemnity of our country for foreign guests! β
This time, it was Shi Dashou who took the lead in applauding, and everyone applauded.
The speeches of the old comrades have a very strong flavor of the 70s.
But it makes a lot of sense.
In the middle of the hilltop wall is the gate, with a red protruding five-pointed star on the door, and two slogans painted with green paint on the walls on both sides: Take the island as your home, keep the island for a long time.
Song Guoqiang went to open the door and lead them in, and the majestic and tall main lighthouse appeared in front of them.
It is one of the most important lighthouses on the outer islands, and the lights used are very strong under high power, exchanging light once every 60 seconds, and the range can reach 22 nautical miles!
"Here you can even shine into the county docks, and when your ships enter and leave the port at night, sometimes I give you lights." Song Guoqiang said proudly.
Shi Dazhang asked, "Then what are we going to do now?" β
Expert Yi pointed to the base of the tower and said: "This place was just demolished a few days ago, which may not be stable under the typhoon, so I need to divide the big guys into two teams in an orderly manner, and then tie three cables evenly on the top of the tower, and each of the three groups will hold a cable." β
"If the typhoon blows too violently and the lighthouse shakes, then you need to exert force to stabilize it, but you can't use your strength, you need to cooperate with the force, and the lighthouse will shake to one side and the other side will have to exert force to pull it."
"One group is tired and the other group is going to be on top, and the two groups are rotated!"
A taciturn man shook his head and said, "Two teams are not enough, three teams, you need to set up a reserve team." β
"Three ropes are not enough, tie six ropes, three groups pull three ropes to maintain the triangle position to exert force, if the triangle is not enough, then you have to need the reserve team to start from the other three ropes to assist in the force, so that it is safe!"
Expert Yi chatted with the two people who led him, and chatted with Officer Shi a few words.
Wang Yi heard Officer Shi say: "This comrade's name is Ding Deshui, he is the captain of the militia squad of Duobao Island, he once served in the main force and served as an officer, and after being demobilized due to injury, he chose to go home to become a fisherman. β
Expert Yi said: "Then his suggestion is very informative, and it is indeed more comprehensive than I considered." β
He led the militiamen to see the lighthouse.
The foundation of the lighthouse was originally made of thick layers of bricks, watered with cement.
But the main body is a wooden mechanism.
The base of the lighthouse is very thick, after all, it is more than ten meters high, just like the water tower set up in the residential area of the city, there is a ladder inside, which rotates to the top of the tower.
Expert Yi said: "Most of the lighthouses on the outer islands are related to foreigners, and they are the sea beacons left by Westerners after invading Shanghai. β
"At that time, there were no brick and tile factories and cement factories on the outer islands, and the common stones on the islands could not build lighthouses, so in the last century, Westerners could only use local materials and wood to make lighthouses."
"After the founding of the People's Republic of China, the sovereignty of the lighthouse was nationalized, and our country repaired and reinforced, but comrades all know that in the early years, our country's economy was backward, poor and white, so the repair work was relatively simple."
"Now that the reform and opening up has taken place, the shipping routes in the outer islands have played a more important role, and the state is ready to allocate funds to overhaul all the lighthouses......
"Hey, this lighthouse is all foreigner's stuff? That can't be, we already have lighthouses on the outer islands. Shi Dazhang couldn't help but speak.
Expert Yi said with a smile: "Yes, lighthouses have a long history in China. During the Tang Dynasty, a lighthouse was developed in the form of a pagoda, and this lighthouse is not far from our location. β
He pointed in the direction of Hudu and said: "There is a place called Zhujiajiao Commune over there, and there is a thatched tower there, which is our earliest man-made navigation mark. β
Someone else said: "I went to see Maota, about 30 meters, on the side of the island in the middle of the lake, there are tower courtyards, pavilions, wells and the like, then at night can be brightened, and some boats are stopped there to drink tea......
Officer Shi raised a flag to test the wind, and said solemnly: "Don't talk nonsense, let's go to the tower room and squeeze it first, divide into groups, I think the typhoon is about to invade the periphery." β
At this moment, there was a sudden flash of light and a sudden thunderous roar in the sky.
Almost instantly, everyone felt the rain dripping on them.
It made sense for Officer Shi to hurry up and bring them to Dapeng Island.
Typhoons are starting to grow.
Now the wind is quite strong but not very strong, but the rain is very strong, pouring heavy rain and pouring fiercely!
The sea suddenly became even darker.
Shi Dashou consulted with Expert Yi for a few words, and then divided the militia into three teams, namely the first team, the second team, and the reserve team.
Each team has a captain, the captain of the first team is Shi Dazhang, the captain of the second team is Wang Yi, and the captain of the reserve team is Ding Deshui.
After the team is divided, the captains are divided into three groups, which is simple, just group according to the militia squad.
In the midst of their arrangement, the wind and rain were raging outside.
Wang Yi stored the backpack in the corner of the room first, and urgently put on a raincoat - he was about to fight.
However, with this raincoat to protect people, it will be much better in the wind and rain.
He bought a two-section raincoat, with clothes and pants, which belonged to the black double-layer model in terms of craftsmanship, with a mesh lining, known as rainstorm waterproof, and could block the wind and rain for 24 hours in a row.
And its hood is double-brim, one brim forward, and a transparent brim is dropped to protect the face, which can block the wind and rain, and can even be used to block infectious viruses in the air.
The militia of their production team put on the raincoat and soon learned how good it was.
Wang Dongfeng happily stretched out his sleeves and tried it and said, "This raincoat is good......
Wang Yi hurriedly stabbed him to give him a look, and whispered to the militiamen: "Just protect yourself, don't show off!" β
This will make everyone else wear raincoats, and a few people will still wear raincoats, so that there will be people who laugh at people.
And then almost fought......
There was a commotion inside the house, and there was a rumble outside.
Wang Yi looked out through the window, the wind was raging and the rain was raining like a waterfall.
The heavy rainfall brought by the typhoon was sudden.
It was as if God was angry, and chiseled through the Tianhe River, tore open the canopy, and the Tianhe River poured down violently.
A thick curtain of rain almost connected the sky and the sea, the wind roared, and the trees writhed and swayed desperately.
The rain poured and knocked on the roof with a dull sound, and some of the rain was swept up by the wind and knocked on the glass, crackling like firecrackers.
It's amazing!
Vast expanses of rain fell from the rooftops, flowed down the rocks, and spilled into the ocean in twists and turns.
Wang Yi fixed his eyes on the lighthouse next to him and saw that there were thick cables flying in the wind on the lighthouse, like a plague of wild pythons.
Then he was confused: "My grass, isn't the cable fixed?" Look out, look out, and the rope is blown. β
Expert Yi and Officer Shi both rushed out of the door to look, and they were also stunned.
The rope light was tied to the top of the tower, and I forgot to fix the lower end!
Officer Shi said anxiously: "No, the big one is coming, you have to quickly pull the rope down." β
"Shi Dazhang, go out and drag it down!"
This time it was Shi Dazhang's turn to be confused: "Huh? I, no, how do I pull them off? This is blown up by the wind for more than ten meters! β
Wang Yi saw that there was a fishing net in the house, and said loudly: "It's easy to go up from the inside of the lighthouse and take back the cable, tie a stone in the fishing net and tie it to the cable, so that you can press the other end of the rope when you throw it down." β
Shi Dashou glared at Shi Dazhang angrily.
Don't be angry!
The situation was urgent, and he said to Wang Yi: "Teacher Wang, you lead a few people from your second team to take charge of this matter, I'll take a look at the wind!" β
Wang Yi said: "Be bold, take people away!" Three of them went up to collect the cables, and the others hurried to find the stones! β
Song Guoqiang, an old man who watched the lighthouse, said: "There are many stones on the mountain, big and small, let's go, I will lead you to move a few." β
It's easy to do by retrieving the rope from inside the lighthouse, tying the other end of the rope to the fishing net with the stones in it, and throwing it down.
The wind-blown cable dangled in the air, but it could not fly with a stone.
After boldly coming out of the lighthouse, he said to Wang Yi with a worried face: "This lighthouse is not good, a lot of wood in it is rotten into tofu slag, don't go up, step on the revolving wooden ladder and crunch, it's really scary, today's wind is not the ninth-level wind that was in the little devil yesterday, otherwise this lighthouse really can't hold it." β
He flicked his sleeves and laughed happily: "Mr. Wang, the raincoat you gave us is really good, it is so windy and rainy, and I am not very wet." β
In contrast, the raincoats worn by the militia of other production teams are not very good, the rainproof performance is good, but it is one-piece, just like the placket of the placket, the wind blows through the placket and suddenly rolls upside down, and their pants are already soaked as soon as they go out.
At this time, no one cared about getting wet, the wind was getting stronger, and the lighthouse without the protection of the foundation swayed slightly.
Expert Yi noticed this and hurriedly ordered, so Shi Dashou shouted: "Come, a team goes out, pull up the rope, according to the weather broadcast, the typhoon will stay on our outer islands for at most one today, and it will move inland through the urban area of Wengzhou at night, so that we will be stable!" β
"Comrades stand up, you must stand up today!"
Shi Dazhang also shouted: "Comrades, follow me!" Comrade Leader said well, fighting with the sky is endless, fighting with the earth, the fun is endless! I'm leading you to have fun - ahem, ahem! β
The wind became stronger again, bringing a mouthful of rain into his mouth, and he choked and coughed.
Watching Shi Dazhang lead a group of militiamen to go up, pull up the rope and start dragging it evenly.
Wang Yi couldn't help but shake his head.
Now it is only the edge of the typhoon that affects the outer islands, and the wind is strong but not exaggerated, so it will not be so early that it will only waste strength.
The lighthouse has endured a hundred years of wind and rain here, and it is not so strong that it cannot withstand this little wind, and now it is swaying because of the structure of its wooden skeleton.
There were also people next to him shaking their heads.
It's Ding Deshui.
Ding Deshui said to Shi Dashou: "Officer Shi, you tell Captain Shi, don't rush to exert force, it doesn't matter if the wind is now, if the cement base of the lighthouse is not destroyed, it won't shake, and it's not a big problem now." β
Wang Yi added: "Yes, on the contrary, the comrades of the first team will hurt the wooden base by dragging hard. β
He asked Expert Yi again: "The organization doesn't need our militia to stabilize it, but it just needs us to help it fight the typhoon, right?" β
Expert Yi said loudly: "Yes, Officer Shi, what Captain Wang and Captain Ding said is very right, you go up and say to the comrades of the first team, don't be in a hurry, save your strength and use it later!" β
Shi Dashou was embarrassed.
He went out against the wind and shouted in a circle, so that the militiamen did not have to rush to pull the rope.
Expert Yi also entered the lighthouse against the wind, and when he came back, he was a little worried, and said: "The old wooden base of the lighthouse is very damaged, Captain Wang, Captain Ding, you come in with me to have a look, and I will tell you how to arrange the manpower configuration in the team later." β
