Chapter 131: Entering the Mountain
Lao Zhang didn't seem to want to wait for a moment, and he wanted to get into the mountain immediately. He quickly carried his equipment on his body, making it like a geological explorer.
Entering the mountain is a very simple thing, not to mention that Lao Zhang is very familiar with it, but the equipment is too difficult to transport. If someone hadn't built a mine there before, there would be no roads to go in.
Drive the truck and arrived at the place soon. Li Feng saw a small mine cave, which is not as big as a door!
When he saw this was the case, he called Lao Zhang in the distance with some confusion.
"Old Zhang, Lao Zhang, you are wrong. How can we get into such a small mine?"
Old Zhang approached the entrance of the cave, then looked around and replied:
"This entrance should not be the main passage of the mine cave, the main passage of the mine cave should be very large, such as... there!"
Old Zhang pointed to a weed-covered cave in the distance, but when Li Feng approached, he found that the height of the cave seemed to be not even half a meter.
"This is indeed a hole, but we can't climb in, we can't even get equipment in such a short hole!"
The little fat man didn't understand this profession, so he didn't know what the situation was, but Lao Zhang seemed to know, and dug a shovel on the ground with a shovel, then dug a ditch at the entrance of the hole, looked carefully, and said:
"A small half of the hole is above, and most half is underground. Because of the years of rain, the soil has buried it.
We just need to dig the hole open!"
Lao Zhang is indeed a cultural person. He even knows this. It seems that he has worked in mines in the past. Of course, he may have seen many mines in the mountains.
Just as a group of people were about to dig the ground, a young man shouted loudly in the distance.
"Hurry up, come here and have a look."
The fat man dragged a shovel and walked over. Then he saw two rails in some piles of weeds. The rails extended to dozens of meters ahead. As for the rails in the other direction, they were gradually buried by sand and soil, as if they were put up from the ground.
Looking at the rust on these railway tracks, Li Feng judged that it should have been four or five years, which corresponds to Lao Zhang's statement.
"It seems that there is indeed a mine cave below, but I don't know if it is all buried inside!"
Having rails is a good thing, at least it proves that someone has developed it here, but I don’t know how much has been developed in the cave.
Now they don’t have excavators, so they can only rely on manpower to dig the hole, which is an extremely laborious task.
Fortunately, dozens of people came to them, just pretending to be exercise.
After digging for a long time, I finally dug most of the hole, but after digging more than one meter deep, I still couldn't see the bottom.
"Captain, it seems that this is indeed the soil flowing from other places. You see, the soil is not very hard, otherwise we probably have to use a pickaxe!"
Because the soil flows in and the texture is relatively loose, a large hole is easily dug.
Dozens of people worked hard for a long time and finally dug the hole open.
There is not much soil silt in the cave, and the main reason is that the soil outside the cave needs to be cleaned for a period of time.
Cave exploration is simply nonsense, because there is no danger in this cave at all, and even a dead snake was not discovered. Of course, this has something to do with the environment inside.
I threw a torch in and found that the torch was quickly extinguished. It seemed that there should be insufficient oxygen in it. If there is something alive, the other party should not be an ordinary species.
"We have to vent it here, otherwise there will be too much miasma in it. Let's not talk about working inside, whether we can get in alive is a problem!"
Miasma is poisonous, and you will get caught by accident. In the past, ordinary people in the countryside didn’t understand this. When they saw someone poisoning the miasma, they thought it was a ghost.
Lao Zhang said that he could handle the matter here, and he just needed to send him some people to him.
Of course, there are manpower, but the key is that there is no material or anything, which makes Li Feng feel a little difficult to deal with.
In particular, Lao Zhang also made a list, which clearly recorded some things and even some mechanical equipment. Where did he do this?
It is so difficult to build an arsenal, so many of the Eighth Route Army's arsenals are just local workshops. At most, they just build some bullets and mines, and then load some bullets. As for building guns and cannons, it is impossible to say.
There are not many arsenals that can repair firearms. There is only one arsenal that can truly manufacture weapons independently, that is, the headquarters arsenal, and the rest of the arsenals can only be regarded as workshops.
Since Lao Zhang said that they could handle these things, the fat man didn't continue to make do with him here and went down the mountain honestly.
...
Hospital of the Third Division of the Eighth Route Army.
Shen Yi has been particularly distressed recently because there is no medicine in their hospital. In addition, there are planes passing through the sky all day long, and they will be bombed from time to time. The two rounds of bombings of the Japanese caused great casualties to them.
There are two nearby villages with half of the people, and the total casualties are over 200. There are still some corpses buried in the soil!
"Doctor Shen, your letter!"
It turned out that messenger would bring her a letter almost every two weeks, and occasionally a box of things.
This time it was a letter, plus two boxes, looking at the thick envelope, there was a rare smile on the tired face of deliberating.
"Hey, Dr. Shen, this is something you sent by your little partner. Can you give me some? The candy and biscuits were delicious last time!"
Yes!
The little fat man is good at picking up girls, and he is very good at writing some stingy words. He even gives gifts and other gifts, all of which are for food and use, and they are specifically aimed at women's hearts.
No wonder the other doctors and nurses were a little envious. Anyone who wanted to catch this fat man quickly.
Shen Yi's face quickly climbed a little red, and then she looked at the women outside the door with some anger and defended:
"This is just some normal interactions, you... don't think too much."
"Yoyo, our Dr. Shen is shy."
The young nurses like to make fun of each other, especially some of them who are married, and they even want to take a trumpet and blow everywhere.
Shen Yi no longer cared about these women's gossip and slowly opened the thick envelope.
Strangely, this time the letter was sent not only, but also some other things were stored inside.
"Dear Shen Yi: I won some more battles in the south and got back a lot of oceans. Some time ago, I heard that the hospital lacked funds and medicines, so I sent you some money, and the silver notes were also in the envelopes. They can be exchanged in Chongqing and Xi'an..."
Some of the nonsense behind Shen Yi looked at the red face. This fat man was so sensible. Do you know how stingy he said?
I closed the letter paper and just wanted to throw it away, but then I put it back in my pocket with some reluctance.
Chapter completed!
