Fukushima Anzheng was muttered by Zhao Chuanxin all the way. The clergy of every church he passed had heard of this name.
The people who died deserved their death. These people occupied and bought land without doing anything about human affairs, and they were equivalent to legal foreign bandits.
If he had to leave a message, Zhao Chuanxin said he would not be slaughtered.
The two rode for several days. Worried about the pursuit of troops, Bayarbor proposed to take a detour to Zhangjiakou and go straight to the capital, intending to go north through Guangou to the palace of King Gong.
For several days, the horses stopped and people stopped. One person changed the horse and the other, and soon arrived at Guangou.
At Badaling, countless workers were digging shafts, and their pickaxes were clanking against the rocks.
The arrival of the two men did not attract the attention of the tired workers.
On the other hand, a middle-aged man in a dusty suit spotted Zhao Chuanxin. His eyes suddenly widened and he walked towards Zhao Chuanxin.
After getting closer, he said in surprise, "Charcoal worker"
Zhao Chuanxin turned around and saw the middle-aged man bared his teeth and smiled, "Brother Juicheng, you are well."
p>
This person is Zhan Tianyou.
Zhan Tianyou looked around and lowered his voice and said, "How dare you go to the capital?"
Zhao Chuanxin was a wanted criminal by the court.
"I work and sit upright, why don't I dare to come?" Zhao Chuanxin's eyes widened, "Did you find a gold mine here and lead people to dig for gold? Why don't you bring such a good thing?" Brother’s share”
Zhan Tianyou couldn’t laugh or cry, “I am responsible for building the railway from Beijing to Zhangjiakou. This is the final stage of the second section. I am digging shafts and tunnels. No, I encountered a huge block. Rocks blocked the way and the project was hindered. Some workers said they had dug an earth dragon. Be careful, the earth dragon turned over. I have a headache."
Whenever tunnels are excavated, there are always various rumors and legends, like noses and eyes. Yes, even if it is still the case in future generations.
Every time this matter is mentioned, someone will always say that some things have to be believed
Zhao Chuanxin asked him, "Didn't you use the method of drilling gunpowder blasting?"
< p>Zhan Tianyou hesitated for a moment, "Chinese people have never used explosives before, so we must be cautious about this matter."Zhao Chuanxin encouraged, "There is a first time for everything. The British were as early as the beginning of the last century We started using explosives.”
“Well, the terrain of Badaling is very different, the mountains are steep, and there are many rocks underneath that are indestructible. It’s not possible to fill them with explosives. The work still needs to be completed by workers' hands. For example, this place is a difficult one."
Zhao Chuanxin got off his horse, lifted up his belt, and rolled up the sleeves of his flannel shirt. "Let's go, lead the way." , Brother, give you a hand."
Although Zhan Tianyou has not interacted with Zhao Chuanxin a few times, he feels that they are quite close to each other.
He was not polite and said, "Charcoal worker, don't mess around. This is different from marching and fighting. It requires brute force."
To say that Zhao Chuanxin is first-class in fighting, he was Called the God of War.
But Zhan Tianyou doesn’t think he understandsproject.
"Who is messing with you?" Zhao Chuanxin turned around and told Bayar, "Old man, let the horse eat some grass and rest here today."
Zhan Tianyou had no choice but to take him to observe.
Zhan Tianyou used the middle shaft method, which means digging two shafts in the middle. After going down, he excavated to both ends to increase the construction area as much as possible.
Zhao Chuanxin looked at the shaft that could not be dug deep enough in the mountain. There were rocks underneath. The workers were hammering away hard, but with little success.
This will last until the Year of the Monkey and the Horse Month
Zhao Chuanxin said, "Ask all the workers below to come up and do whatever they have to do. Leave this place to me."
Zhan Tianyou was naturally hesitant. Historically, he completed the laying of the Beijing-Zhangjiakou Railway two years in advance.
So, the construction date is actually ahead of schedule.
But he is not willing to waste a day, because the railway is of great significance. If it is completed and opened to traffic one day earlier, it will have an important impact on the national economy and people's livelihood.
"Hurry up, brother, if I tell you anything, come and see me."
People at this time still value their oaths very seriously.
After hearing this, Zhan Tianyou made up his mind and called all the workers up and told them to take a day off.
The workers were naturally happy and dispersed one after another.
At this time, Zhao Chuanxin said cheerfully, "By the way, I forgot to tell you, it's true that you are raising your head to see me, but it may be the head of a foreigner."
Zhan Tianyou""
had the urge to kick Zhao Chuanxin into the shaft.
The two of them grabbed the rope and descended into the three-meter-deep shaft. Zhao Chuanxin's expression suddenly became cautious, "Brother Juancheng, what you saw today must help me keep it a secret."
Zhan Tianyou saw him babbling, but he still clasped his fists and said, "I will keep my mouth shut."
Zhao Chuanxin had a clay trowel glove in his right hand and an elf carving knife in his left hand.
He first turned the rocks on the four sides into sand, extended the elf carving knife, stretched it in, and cut off the rock from the back.
A large piece of rock fell off.
He casually walked into the secret realm, which was three meters high. It was just easy for him. He bent his knees, added strength, and suddenly jumped out.
Zhan Tianyou below was dumbfounded. He looked up at the mouth of the well, and then looked at the smooth-cut rock below. He felt incredible.
This is simply beyond human power.
Zhao Chuanxin threw the rock out and came back again.
The process of melting sand, cutting, and throwing stones continued in this cycle, and the shaft was dug to a sufficient depth very quickly.
Zhan Tianyou hurriedly said, "Charcoal workers, it's time to dig sideways."
Zhao Chuanxin was worried about landslides, so when digging rocks, he left a few stone pillars to support him while digging. Keep.
Because Zhan Tianyou pioneered the "herringbone slope" method to combat the steep slope, the tunnel was only left with a length of more than 1,000 meters.
Because the tunnel was dug sideways, in order to allow as many secrets as possible, Zhao Chuanxin dug a large areaThe melted sand, mixed with stones, was transported out in batches, five meters long each time, and the cross-section was not wide. What he needed now was to dig a tunnel large enough for workers to pass, and then the workers would complete the later work.
So the progress is very fast.
Zhao Chuanxin ran back and forth more than a hundred times for five meters at a time, and he was so tired that sweat appeared on his forehead.
Zhan Tianyou was behind him, holding the drawings to make suggestions. His face was full of joy. When he saw this, he said, "Charcoal workers, take a rest and go out to eat. We have been down there for five hours."
Zhao Chuanxin wiped his sweat and said, "I'm going to blanch it, it's more difficult than I thought."
There are artifacts that are still like this, and it all depends on the hands of workers to cut the mountain, which shows how difficult it is.
In the early days, the Chinese built many railways with great difficulty.
It is simply unimaginable how many difficulties Zhan Tianyou has to overcome in his many projects.
The two climbed out of the shaft and found the anxious Bayar. The three returned to the work shed to eat.
Zhao Chuanxin was sweating profusely, so he simply took off his shirt and put it on his shoulders.
Zhan Tianyou saw that his whole body was covered with simple graphic tattoos composed of regular geometric patterns converging into various plants and animals, and he couldn't help but wonder, "How did you get these tattoos?"
The food is very delicious It was simple, white flour steamed buns with stewed pork. Zhao Chuanxin ordered a bowl of garlic sauce to dip it in. < /p>
"I see that the tattoos on the body of the charcoal workers have the characteristics of Hawaiian totems. Why bother to have these tattoos?"
After all, Zhan Tianyou has studied in the United States and is well-informed.
"It's a long story. When I went to Hawaii, the local indigenous people said that I was the incarnation of their Kuku war god. They had to tattoo me or they would commit collective suicide. I have the virtue of a good life. See He was dizzy with blood, so he reluctantly agreed."
Zhan Tianyou"
The charcoal worker is good at everything, but his mouth is hard to say.
Your hands are stained with blood, but you are not ashamed to say that you are fainting with blood
When you were in Hankou, Zhao Chuanxin was killed and the blood flowed like a river.
After eating, Bayar asked, "When will we set off?"
"There's no rush." Zhao Chuanxin wiped the corners of his mouth, "Let's wait until I finish helping Brother Chengcheng." Let’s go.”
At this time, the sun has set in the west, and it is obvious that it cannot be completed today.
The two went down the tunnel again, digging through one side first.
When he saw the dusk outside, Zhan Tianyou felt indescribably excited.
"It's clear, it's really clear. It took only one day for the charcoal worker to dig through one side. It's really the work of ghosts and gods."
If you hadn't seen it with your own eyes, I would be grateful to Zhan Tian. It’s unbelievable that someone can dig a tunnel of five to six hundred meters in one day.
When we returned to the work shed, another engineer, Yan Deqing, came back with a group of engineering students.
Because cutting out rocks is an ink-blowing job, they went to the front to survey the road conditions in an attempt to shorten the construction period and ensure the lead time.
After returning, I found that Zhan Tianyou had driven all the workers back.
Yan Deqing was stunned.
"Huancheng, you are really, really inappropriate." He wanted to say that he was joking, but Zhan Tianyou was the chief engineer and it was difficult for him to say, "The construction period is so tight, how can we ask the workers to rest?"
p>
Zhao Chuanxin, who was eating noodles with garlic next to him, suddenly raised his head and said, "Hey, you look familiar. What is your relationship with Yan Huiqing?"
Yan Huiqing is Zhao Chuanxin in Shanghai. , I met him when he went to the British Consulate to ask for mineral rights in Shanxi.
At that time, Yan Huiqing and Tang Guoan were preparing for the World Anti-Smoking Conference.
It was only then that Yan Deqing noticed Zhao Chuanxin's "Yan Huiqing is my brother, who are you?" Please remember to bookmark it, the latest and fastest website for free reading without anti-theft
