Volume 1: Night Shine Kyushu Ming One Hundred: It's not over yet
"Poof, ahem......"
Xu Yicheng got up from the rubble in embarrassment, coughing non-stop.
In the first wave before, although he bore the brunt, he was lucky to be swept into a corner and did not continue to be washed away, so he barely picked up his life.
Now his condition is not very good, his left arm is completely drooped down, and it is directly broken from the upper arm. There were also extra fractures in the ribs, and every cough brought out a mouthful of blood. Only his heartbeat was steady, letting him know that he was not in danger of his life.
When I opened my eyes again, I saw that the harbor was full of mess, and half of the harbor was soaked in seawater and there was a fire, but no additional sound could be heard, which made people's minds somewhat calm.
"Knock, knock, knock-" like the beating of war drums, the sound from far and near, one after another.
Xu Yicheng was stunned for a moment, turned his head to look out of the harbor, and his pupils constricted.
It was the end of the horizon, and a black line was rapidly expanding in this direction.
Having lived on the coast for many years, he knew that this meant only one of the most terrifying things.
He looked up and saw the huge copper gate that was still open, and he knew that only this method could barely protect Chaomen City.
So, with staggering steps, he walked to the bracket of the floodgates.
This is his duty as a minor official of the city.
……
The man who cared for the god governor rushed to the watchtower and looked at everything in front of him.
The ruins of the fierce battle, there are almost no things that are still alive, and the meaning of their coming here seems to be only the collection of corpses and the aftermath.
Cheng Xiangxian scolded secretly, and he could only let people search and rescue the wounded first, try his best to treat the rest of the people, and at the same time prevent no one from running to the shore in the two sunken ships of Lang Guo.
But soon, Cheng Fuxian was a little puzzled: Where did his father go?
……
"You've done a lot, but you've never shown yourself in the face."
Behind the watchtower, Cheng Tingdong stopped Qiu Shaohu's back and said while smoking a cigarette.
"I've done everything that needs to be done here, so I'm going to go." Qiu Shaohu turned his head sideways and didn't turn around to say.
"Where are you going?"
"Kang Jing, I'm going next. After that, I don't know. Qiu Shaohu said.
"Do I need to clear the paperwork? I'm ...... here."
"No," Qiu Shaohu directly rejected Cheng Tingdong's kindness, "I've been prepared for a long time." ”
Cheng Tingdong nodded, pondered for a while, and then said, "Thank you......"
"You don't need to thank me, I'm just doing it for myself." Qiu Shaohu said again.
Cheng Tingdong smiled bitterly, and didn't know what to say.
This young man never accepts favors from others, but he values the impact of what he does on others.
In the end, he could only say: "If you were my subordinate, I would definitely have a headache because of such an arbitrary subordinate." Cheng Tingdong sighed a little, but took a deep breath of the cigarette pouch and continued: "But if you are my boss, maybe I will admire your daring to think and do." ”
There are few conversations, but the most sincere feelings of the two.
But from beginning to end, Cheng Tingdong didn't ask Lian Yang about it, and seemed to have completely forgotten that person from his memory.
"But your son isn't too smart." Qiu Shaohu turned around and said.
The two of them looked at the other side at the same time.
The eavesdropping Cheng Quxian can only appear from there.
Cheng Fuxian was also a little embarrassed, should he greet Qiu Shaohu now, or should he question him for some clues according to Fu Shendu's custom......
But at the same time, several people heard the sound of beating like a war drum.
It should be said that not only a few of them, but the entire port, and even the entire Chaomen City, can already be heard clearly.
Beyond the surface of the sea, there is an overwhelming wall of waves, pressing towards this side as a whole!
The earth-shattering momentum, if it is said that the entire open sea has been lifted and smashed to this side, it is not an exaggeration!
"The second big wave!" Cheng Tingdong was taken aback, and then remembered that Zhang Fengrong had told him before that if there was an earthquake in the open sea, there would be more than one wave of tsunamis hitting the coast, and often the second wave would be more violent and abnormal!
"What to do!" Cheng Xiangxian almost panicked, because he knew that now that the war had just ended, the port was withering, the gate could not be closed, and the expanded construction site had already had construction problems, and the breakwater was already full of holes after the first tsunami, and it was impossible to withstand the second wave of bigger winds.
They tried their best to save Chaomen, but now Chaomen is doomed to be destroyed by natural disasters.
"Boom, boom!"
The sound of the flames bursting was even more inopportune at this time.
Outside the port, a nine-infant warship that was supposed to sink was miraculously started again at this time, and the cannon was aimed at the city again.
The first battleship in front of it had withstood the main force of the collapse of the Xianying Monument, so it sank in an instant, and only some remaining strength was left when it hit the second ship, so it was spared.
The situation is even more sinister in the blink of an eye.
……
Lang Xing walked outside the prison and looked at everything in front of him, and couldn't help but be shocked.
After the waves raged, there were collapsed houses everywhere, many seaside boats were lifted to the rooftops, and the dilapidated buildings reflected the devastation of the trees, and the prosperity of the streets and alleys of the past was gone.
The people in the four corners are either as dead as ashes or as depressed as their heads. In all directions, the wailing was unconscious, all of which made those who heard it cry and be disheartened. But in one day, they lost everything, how can they not make people feel cold.
"If these people can reach the resting place, will they be satisfied again?"
Lang Xing faced all this, felt confused, and muttered to himself.
At this time, the insect egg in his hand began to glow.
He knew that this was the signal of the receiver, telling him to throw the worm eggs to the ground, and the worm Gu would fill the whole city like the evil spirits before.
The second wave in my ears is already approaching.
……
"It's not over yet, there's still a way!" Qiu Shaohu suddenly thought of something, and said loudly: "Go and dismantle the breakwater!" ”
"Are you crazy about dismantling the breakwater at this time?" Cheng Fuxian was shocked.
"Only in this way can we save the tide gate!" Qiu Shaohu said: "First of all, go and close the main gate, it has stood in the tide gate for so many years, and it has never been damaged, even if the tide is big, it can withstand it." ”
"The main gate can withstand it, but somewhere else! The breakwater is already full of holes, and if the main gate closes and the breakwater collapses, the big waves will still rush into the city! ”
"That's why, I said I'm going to tear down the breakwater!" Qiu Shaohu said, "The auxiliary gates on the periphery of the construction site have been built, as long as they are allowed to fall, although they cannot block all of them, they can block the other tide and flow in the direction of the breakwater." I looked at the trend of the breakwater, and if I could blow it up a gap, I would be able to divert the seawater and flow back overseas from the gap in the breakage! The tide rises and falls, and it will follow a certain direction of flow, and there will be more whirlpools at the corners of the big river, which is also the reason! ”
Because his words were too bold, Cheng Fuxian was shocked for a while and was still a little unacceptable.
"That's it!" Cheng Tingdong immediately made a decision, "You go and blow up the breakwater, and I'll block that battleship for you!" ”
As he spoke, the ship's artillery fire had been fired again, and the flames fell to the ground of the harbor, blasting many deep pits.
At the same moment, Xu Yicheng gritted his teeth and grabbed the huge chain thicker than his waist, trying to pull the mechanism of the gate.
The machine bracket is damaged and can only be replaced by manpower. If the bracket does not move, the entire gate cannot be activated.
