Chapter 181 Go

If anyone comes to Ma'anshan, the most surprising thing is that the houses on both sides of the street are pure red walls and green roofs. It is a well-built worker's area. A two-house building is closely connected. There is no customary vegetable field before and after the connected small buildings, only flat grass.

This building on both sides of the black asphalt road is like a row of serious soldiers. Every time he walked through the street in a carriage and looked at this building, Liu Guanxiong could feel the order.

"With a salary of one yuan, you have to abide by the rule of one yuan!"

"If you live in the new school building, you have to abide by the rules of the new school!"

In the past few days when he came to Ma'anshan, Liu Guanxiong has heard a lot about the rules here. Those unsatisfactory rules are well kept here. Maybe it has nothing to do with most of them being employees of the company. After all, he is not willing to joke about the work of more than 20 yuan to 30 or 40 yuan a month.

When Liu Guanxiong's carriage drove into the shipyard, it was facing a group of workers coming out of the gate. It was a crooked and tired flow of people. Like enterprises in any industry, the Yangtze River Shipyard also implemented strict three shifts and night shifts.

When the car approached the dock, it could faintly hear the sound of pneumatic rivet guns riveting from the dock, as well as the harsh sound of metal drill cutting. In the No. 4 dock, there was a cruiser with a dismantled gun, surrounded by hundreds of workers who were desperately repairing around the hull and on the deck.

Looking at the "Haitian" that is being repaired, Liu Guanxiong's mood has changed slightly. Several desktop rigs in the dock are constantly drilling rivets in order to break the broken steel plate, and the drilling sound of the steel plate is extremely harsh in the dock. The crane over the dock is hanging the gun that was salvaged.

When Liu Guanxiong inspected the damaged place of the warship in the dock, the shipyard engineers kept reporting on the projects that had been carried out in a long way, but Liu Guanxiong still interrupted him and asked a question that he was most concerned about.

"When can the warship be repaired?"

"Although the keel has not been damaged and the boiler has not been immersed, up to 32 steel plates need to be replaced. At the same time, it will take at least a month to remove the rust inside and outside the ship!"

The engineer truthfully reported that the company had specifically told the maintenance progress of the ship that it did not need to pay attention to the supervisor sent by the navy, but only needed to Liu Guanxiong, who was hired as a consultant of the shipyard, that is, he sank China's first-class cruiser.

"I can't wait that long!"

He spit out a sentence without thinking, and Liu Guanxiong took another look at the "Haitian".

"Before the 15th of next month at the latest, the Haitian must be repaired. Your task is to use all means to ensure that this warship is repaired as scheduled!"

This warship will be his only warship. After gritting his teeth on this "thief ship", he proposed to use Huaxing's old merchant ship to transform it into a warship against the gunboat of the Yangtze River Division, and Huaxing took out 18 merchant ships from 2,500 tons to 3,800 tons to transform the warship, but after all, it was a merchant ship. This " The Haitian is the only warship of the Restoration Army.

Although he is still flying the dragon flag, I'm afraid the sky has changed when it is repaired. When I looked up again, I saw the sunset like blood, reflecting the sky in the west.

At night, at the foot of Magnetic Mountain in Ma'anshan, there are more than 30 large wooden houses on both sides of the open and carefully maneuvered grass. Near this wooden house, there is also a wooden tower more than ten meters high. Ma'anshan and Jiangning people here see those strange things in their surprised eyes. After running on the grass, it suddenly soared into the sky, and the birds flew into the sky.

This is the airport of the air show team of the industrial company. The air show team has 46 aircraft. In the past few months, they have made many commercial flights in French Central South, Taiwan, Tokyo and Hong Kong, each with an income of thousands or even tens of thousands of thousands of yuan.

On the grass leaves, a drop of dew trembled slightly, so the whole bright starry sky reflected on this crystal convex surface began to tremble, reflecting a lovely luster. The dewdrops slowly slid down along the concave surface of the grass leaves, faster and faster. Finally, it flew down the tip of the leaves and fell on the grass below, falling into countless small dewdrops. Each dewdrop reflected a starry sky, so there were tens of millions of starry stars.

At this moment, there was a rumbling vibration in the distance, and the slightly trembling grass leaves bounced up dewdrops.

On the grass, the narrow wheels of the bicycle were crushed over. A group of young men practice formation riding on the lawn of the runway, which is part of the training of junior students. The early purpose is to maintain physical balance, and the middle stage is used to train formation to coordinate surnames. The performance of a plane is not attractive, so they must keep the formation flying in the air.

These six bicycles are lined up in a wedge. Deng Shaoling is on the far left. He tightened his muscles while maintaining his speed to maintain the "flying formation".

Yue Shiqi, who "flying" at the forefront of the "strow" at the airport, has seen another "stide" riding on the head-on by the moonlight.

"Keep the formation, pay attention to the spacing, and prepare to stagger."

While giving the order, he leaned his body towards one, which means that he wants to dive. In the air, they use left and right swings and back and forth swings to maintain the most basic two fleets, and regular flight training makes them have a strong tacit understanding.

"I see!"

Everyone answered. While talking, the "teaming" opposite had arrived in front of him. Yue Shiqi tried his best to aim at the corresponding air, but the two pilots on the opposite side "flyed" and it was difficult to aim. At the moment of staggering, Yue Qi saw that he was about to hit the one on the right. He quickly turned to the left and just got out of the way and succeeded! Just as he was about to cheer, he only heard a sling sound behind him. When he looked back, he saw a lot of people turning up. It turned out that the pilot he avoided lost his balance in panic and hit the people behind him. As a result, everyone fell down.

"Are you all right?"

When he stopped the car and looked back to see that his brothers were sleeping there, Yue Shiqi couldn't help laughing.

Deng Shaoling was still pressed down by the bicycle, so he complained.

"Li Qi, Li Qi, you are so strange! Why do you always stall!"

Li Qi got up from the ground and didn't get angry when he heard this. As he patted the mud on his buttocks, he shouted in that unconvinced voice.

"He wants to dive and accelerate..."

"When inserting the queue, you must speed up and use thrilling actions to attract the audience. Don't you understand?"

Yue Shi didn't let people get up.

"It's inevitable to touch it!" Someone began to stir up.

"If God touches it again, it will be over!"

"Oh, don't practice, don't practice! My feet are going to cramp... Let's take a break!"

After interrupting Yue Shiqi's words, Deng Shaoling pushed away the bicycle pressed on his body, put his hands on the back of his head, lay flat on the ground, and exhaled a long breath.

"It's so comfortable..."

The young men who rode bicycles for an hour were most of tired. They threw away the automatic car and lay on the carefully trimmed grass.

The river breeze gently blows, sending the fragrance of green grass. When the starry sky occupies the whole field of view, people can feel its grandeur and distance. Under such a background, each star is so small and delicate, so small that people can see its outline clearly but can't see it clearly, whether they are bright or dark. However, hundreds of millions of stars have completely changed the appearance of the night sky, driving away the desolation and turning it into a starry sky.

"Hey, what do you think, less diligent? The scarves are all scattered!"

Yue Shiqi interrupted Deng Shaoling's thoughts and pointed to the scarf around his neck.

Deng Shaoling looked down and smiled.

"Oh, my sister-in-law knitted it for me."

This wool scarf, which slightly smells of sweat and oil, was personally knitted by my sister-in-law before she learned that he was admitted to the "Tianqing Flying Team". Her mother died early and relied on the care of her brother and sister-in-law to go to the foreign school and be admitted to the flight team. My sister-in-law saw in the newspaper that the pilots were wearing scarves, so she didn't do it at night. I slept and knitted one for Deng Shaoling.

This scarf is very beautiful. It is made of light yellow thin wool thread. When flying in the sky with a plane, it is very gentle between the necks, and occasionally when the engine oil flies out and splashes on the face, it can be wiped. This is the real reason why the pilot's scarf is not to look good.

"I always feel that this scarf will bring me good luck at some point, especially when I fly to the sky. Remember to have..."

Only half of the words, Deng Shaoling heard the sound of a car. The car with the headlights turned on drove to the airport. Everyone looked at the cars coming over and looked at the lights of the street lights in front of the hangary. Those cars were small trucks with the lengthened chassis of the Mustang, and there were also several cars in the flight team.

In addition to flying planes, the favorite of more than 60 pilots of the flight team is to drive a car on the streets of Ma'anshan.

"It's the police. What are they doing here?"

Looking at the company's police who jumped out of the car, the pilots were surprised, and what surprised them more was that the policemen were carrying long guns on their backs. Didn't the company's policemen's guns be taken away?

What's even more amazing is that they even carried two big guys with tripods from the car. This... What's going on!

They were surprised to see that the captain was talking to one of the leading policemen there. The policeman took out a piece of paper from the bag and left, but saw that the captain was looking at the paper in surprise. The captain's expression looked strange, excited and nervous.

What's going on?

The river surface 15 kilometers west of Ma'anshan is glittering, and the silver hooks hanging diagonally in the distance are reflected, as if silver is sprinkled on the waterway. Twelve thousands of tons of commercial ships and hundreds of tons of river ships are slowly adjusting their direction in the Yangtze River.

"Left rudder, left rudder, steady."

The British captain's voice seemed very calm.

"The left rudder is 25 degrees."

The Chinese captain of the turbine calmly obeyed the order.

"The navigator reports the distance."

"Three hundred meters away."

"Good, ready to break down, the engine is ready to stop, and report the speed."

"The speed is six knots."

"Pay attention to the air pressure and reduce the speed to a quarter."

"The air pressure is maintained at a quarter of the speed."

The British captain opened his eyes wide from the bridge to distinguish the channel sign. There was a small orange dot in the distance in the telescope, and the visibility at night was not bad. Although there was a layer of mist near the river, the channel lights could still be clearly recognized.

Two thousand yuan. Although the execution of this order was not what he liked, he accepted the order for the reward of 2,000 yuan, although he did not know why the company sank the ship in the Yangtze River and blocked the Yangtze River route.

"Prepare the signal light."

The British captain knew very well that this might be the last time he sent a lamp on the 5,600-ton cargo ship. The signalman pushed the door up and down, and the lights flashed in length, communicating the light signal with the barge on the side of the distant channel.

"Captain, the barge is ready."

"Well, all the crew will gather on the deck."

The captain with a pipe in his gushed the shabby seaman's hat. Although it was the end of May, the weather should have been very hot, but the surface of the river was cold. It took him to stand on the deck for a long time, and his clothes were wet by the rain-like and foggy water.

"The navigator checks the position of the channel."

"The position is correct, captain, apply for anchoring."

"Wheel stop, pilot preparation, first mate, anchor."

The captain gave orders to the three chief officers in one breath. After giving these three orders, he held his pipe and took another sip.

"Wheel parking, engine parking..."

The captain of the engine's Fujian official language was long, and he slowly shouted at the communication tube.

At this time, the hull slowed down, and the sound of the fire stopped, followed by the sound of anchors dragging chains, and the merchant ship accurately stopped in the main channel of the Yangtze River. And the barge in the distance was also pasted up, and the soft ladder from the merchant ship was followed, and it was time to leave the ship.

"Have all the crew members gathered?" The captain asked the first mate beside him.

"Captain, it's all gathered!"

He took the telescope off his neck, and the captain checked his dress. The leader left the bridge and went down the gangway to the deck. Behind him are several other chiefs. At this time, the front deck was already full of crew members, standing there according to several teams of navigation, engines and communications.

The British captain looked at the group of people under the moonlight, who would lose their ship like him.

"Friends, tonight is the last night of our Hope. I will order to open the bottom door later. The Hope will sink on the main channel of the Yangtze River."

The queue was silent. No one could understand the order from the company. They drove the boat all the way from Shanghai to Shanghai just to sink the ship and close the river.

"I don't know the reason why the shipwreck closed the river, but I think that since the company did this, it should have his intention! All right, my friends, get off the boat! I hope... we can meet again on Hope!"

More than ten minutes later, after the crew got on the barge, the water gate at the bottom of the cabin had been opened and the river poured in. If the calculation is correct, in another 20 minutes, the merchant ship built by Britain ten years ago will sink into the Yangtze River. There are several signal lights using lead-acid batteries on the merchant ship. At this time, the signal lights have been It's bright.

In just half an hour, in two places west of Dangtu and east of Zhenjiang, Huaxing and Yangzijiang companies sank as many as 45 cargo ships and merchant ships. The Yangtze River, which is regarded as the bloodline of Nanzhong, was cut off at midnight.

Zijin Mountain at night was shrouded in a thin mountain fog. In the fog, Zijin Mountain was silent, but from time to time in the fog, the car engine roared. On the top of Zijin Mountain, on the flat ground along the carefully trimmed mountain, 24 wooden boxes were suddenly disassembled, and the boxes were packed with 24 doors. Field artillery, gunners carrying short and long guns, quickly opened the gun rack, while behind them, the artillery officers counted the shooting data with kerosene lamps.

At this time, time passes slowly, but it is very fast. Tonight is destined to be no longer calm. When the gunners on the mountain set the target, in a villa in Zijin Mountain, the echo of the telegraph machine, the ringing of the telephone and the words of the officers seemed to be the only sound here, while Xiao Yiren just paced back and forth. His fingertips held a cigarette. When he picked up the cigarette, he would Some anxiously, he rolled his sleeves and looked at the time of the watch.

Time seems to pass too slowly. The staff officers who graduated from Huangpu in the headquarters of the first division are constantly marking the position of the troops on the sand table. In the Jiangning wall on the sand table, there are more than a dozen blue, red and yellow tricolor flags inserted, and there are also several outside the city.

"Everything will be over tonight!"

When Xiao Qian was anxiously competing with the slow time in Zijin Mountain's villa, in Ma'anshan, dozens of kilometers away, Chen Moran also stood in front of the window, looking at the Ma'anshan steel factory, which seemed to reflect the night sky, waiting for the arrival of the last moment.

"I hope their mother can be safe!"

Thinking of Ji Li and her mother, who went to Singapore by boat this morning, Chen Moran in military uniform, had a little worry in her eyebrows. She had made the worst plan and sent their mother and daughter to Singapore. The governor of the Straits Settlements was a friend of Fisher. Even if the uprising failed, she could protect them. Mother and daughter, if necessary, Ji Li can take Yuntong to England, and... Thinking that Ji Li has been pregnant again, Chen Moran's frowning eyebrows loosened and a smile appeared on her face. I hope... At this time, the door of the office was pushed open, and it was New Yongjian who walked in. At this time, he also changed into a military uniform. His face Shang Qiang suppressed the excitement and tension at the last moment, and he slowly walked behind Chen Moran.

"Marshal!"

New Yongjian's voice seemed a little excited, so that the voice trembled a little.

"There are five minutes left!"

Chen Moran did not look back, but looked at the red night sky reflected by the high furnace of the steel factory outside the window. After a moment of silence, he said a word.

"Oh... I know! Thank you for your hard work!"

The voice was not strange, but Chen Moran's frown and the slight tremor in his face betrayed his tension at this time and opened his lips gently.

"Tomorrow...tomorrow, we will catch the exam!"

(Six provinces and one is Guangfu, will this be a little... Well, anyway, the plot is set like this. There is almost no suspense in the battle of Guangfu. The problem is not Guangfu, but after Guangfu! Ask for a monthly ticket!)
