Crossing the Western Tianshan Mountains

Wu Yongjie looked at Si Yuguang's determined eyes and knew that the fight in the tunnel caused by the explosion was resolved, and Si Yuguang would definitely complete the task perfectly.

On that day, at the tunnel face, Si Yuguang dug another blasthole, then very humbly called the technical team and said that he wanted to calculate the radiation area and intensity. Naturally, the technical team members did not dare to be careless and immediately cooperated with him. The people from the two departments studied it for a whole morning, wasted several blastholes, but still did not carry out the blasting.

But no one rushed them, and they themselves showed unprecedented patience, neither impatient nor anxious. Some measured the distance, some checked the explosives, some calculated the force, some surveyed the internal imaging and generated images... In short, everyone did their job, took into account the data reports of others, and carried out simulation calculations again and again.

When Ling Fengxi saw this situation, he knew that the matter was resolved. When he looked at Wu Yongjie, Wu Yongjie was also looking at him. Wu Yongjie raised his chin to him very proudly, and was extremely proud.

Ling Fengxi came over and gently lifted him up with his shoulder. "How did you do that?"

Wu Yongjie said: "Keep it secret!"

……

Because the tunnel construction has reached the ten-kilometer mark, in addition to the heading face, other aspects of construction must also keep up. That is, the progress not only refers to the excavation progress, but also the progress of improving other equipment. The combined progress is a comprehensive progress. Overall, the comprehensive progress is not slow, so Wu Yongjie and Ling Fengxi are not in a hurry. What they need to pay attention to most now is safe construction. If everything goes well, it will be the greatest luck.

Wu Yongjie did shift his focus to the middle construction area, especially the work of the "lining team".

The lining team is mainly responsible for the installation and removal of the formwork, such as the movement, positioning, adjustment and reinforcement of the lining platform, ensuring the accurate installation position of the formwork, ensuring that the size and shape of the tunnel lining meet the design requirements, and removing the formwork when the concrete is poured and reaches a certain hardness.

At the same time, you must be responsible for and pay attention to the concrete pouring and tamping operations and control the pouring speed, height and direction of the concrete to ensure that the concrete is uniform and dense, without quality defects such as honeycomb, rough surface, voids, etc., and the pouring thickness of each layer should meet the requirements, and the vibration and tamping should be sufficient but avoid over-vibration.

That is to ensure the strength and durability of concrete.

It can be said that the construction quality of this part represents the image and quality of the tunnel after the initial completion of the tunnel construction. Now, most of the lining work has been completed in the first seven kilometers of the tunnel, and the general shape of the highway tunnel has appeared, and even the street lights have been installed.

Ling Fengxi and Wu Yongjie walked in the completed section, under the tunnel lights, listening to the sound of their footsteps amplified in the tunnel, and both of them felt emotional.

But no one spoke.

As they were walking, they noticed a group of people coming towards them, and the one leading them was Fang Ya. This surprised both of them. They looked at each other and walked towards Fang Ya together.

Wu Yongjie asked, "The air here is bad. Why are you coming here instead of staying in the camp?"

Fang Ya said with a smile, "I came to take a look. I heard some workers say that our tunnel is very beautiful, so I came to appreciate the results of our hard work over the past year and a half."

Most of the other medical team members had also arrived and were now excitedly saying, "It's so high!"

"So beautiful!"

"I don't think the air here is bad, it's quite good!"

"It's amazing that such a large project was completed in this way!"

The girls on the medical team, transformed into inexperienced little fans, burst into praise for the tunnel. Wu Yongjie couldn't help but puff out his chest and spoke confidently, "Of course. After all, there are seven or eight hundred of us stationed here, and we're not just here for free. The country has entrusted us with this important task, so of course we must complete it. Even if it's not perfect, we must complete it. And what you see isn't even the final result."

The girls all covered their mouths and laughed, and Captain Wu started bragging again.

Ling Fengxi discovered that Ayala had also come with the girls from the medical team. She was not as surprised as those girls. She just kept looking around and looked up at the dome for a long time, forcing back the tears that were about to flow.

The scene before she and Ling Fengxi broke up when they were young appeared in her mind...

She already knew that breaking up was inevitable, but she and Ling Fengxi still hugged each other for a long time. The two stood under the big elm tree where they often dated, looking at the mountains in the distance that blocked almost all of their view.

"After your stationing mission is over, you will go to the other side of the mountain. There is a beautiful big city over there, a world completely different from ours, all kinds of delicious food, and all kinds of beautiful girls..."

Ling Fengxi said at the time, "But in my heart, the most beautiful world is the world with you."

Ayala said, "This mountain is abominable. It actually blocks everyone's eyes... This is the hand of God. It really blocks everyone's eyes. If it weren't for this mountain, it wouldn't matter if we were thousands of miles apart. We would still be able to see each other."

Ling Fengxi said, "It's okay. I will dig through this mountain sooner or later. Then it will be convenient for me to come and marry you. After you marry me, it will also be convenient for you to go back to your parents' home."

...But what happens next?

After that, the two of them could not resist the customs of the world, and each of them started their own family and career. They did not meet again for more than ten years. If it were not for the construction of the West Tianshan Tunnel, they would probably never have the chance to meet again?

Ling Fengxi knows Ayala best. She is still like when she was young. When she wants to cry, she raises her head and holds back her tears.

At this moment, in order to cover up her own loss of composure, she said in a stiff voice, "Look, look, the lights on the ceiling are so beautiful, the lights on the ceiling are so bright..."

Fortunately, there were not many people around her, and few people noticed the ceiling light she was talking about.

Wu Yongjie suddenly said, "Can you imagine? After this place is built, it will be open to traffic. There will be many trucks carrying all kinds of goods, as well as cars carrying people who want to travel... all kinds of things... Everything will become much easier. It used to take nearly 500 kilometers to cross this mountain, but now it only takes a dozen kilometers..."

He envisioned the future. "That would be fantastic! In the future, people from the north and south could visit each other more often. For example, a man from the south could marry a woman from the north, and a woman from the north could marry a man from the south. It would be no problem at all! If we wanted, we could even have pigeon soup in Wensu one hour and big plate chicken in Yining the next. It's wonderful to think about it."
