Chapter 44 Rescue 7
After a while, Lei Dong looked at the assembled advance team entering the passage with a painful look on his face. He felt extremely painful in his heart. Although he agreed to it quite readily, he had to solve the doubled money himself. The higher-ups would not give him compensation because it was over the limit!
Of course, Lei Dong was just feeling painful, and he did not have too many complaints, because the danger was indeed increased.
In the main passage, there were fallen steel, concrete and steel plates everywhere. Chen Wu walked in front of Su Bai and others with a weapon in his hand. Just as he said, he would do everything he could to protect them. Su Bai looked at the deformed support columns and walls at the edge of the passage and said to Meng Ding in a low voice.
"Uncle Meng, is this passage usually maintained?"
"It must be maintained. It has existed for thousands of years. No matter how good the craftsmanship is, it cannot withstand the erosion of time. If it is not maintained, the collapsed ones will not be what we see in front of us. I will teach you how to distinguish them on the spot. The areas that have been maintained later are obviously lighter in color." Meng Ding said his experience.
Su Bai looked over carefully and found that there seemed to be a part of the deformed structural area, and the color was slightly lighter.
Creak~~
The supporting pillars around made twisted sounds from time to time, giving people a shaky feeling.
Su Bai felt a little scared when he heard it.
However, Su Bai and others still walked forward. There was another team in front of Su Bai and his team. That team was the military engineer team, who were responsible for the front-line survey. Every time they walked a distance and determined that a section of the road was safe, they would send a designated message, and the multi-functional light work vehicle and the Dragon Tooth troops behind them would move forward a distance.
They walked inside for about half an hour.
Suddenly, Chen Wu, who was walking in the front, stopped.
"What's wrong?" Su Bai asked.
"The team in front stopped." Chen Wu said simply.
Su Bai squinted his eyes and looked ahead through the dim light. The passage in front seemed to be blocked! The engineer team in front seemed to be surveying.
At this time, a captain in the team in front turned around and waved to Chen Wu and made a gesture.
Chen Wu turned to Su Bai and others and said.
"There is a collapse area ahead, and we need your assistance."
"Let's go." Meng Ding nodded.
Approaching the collapsed area, Su Bai saw at a glance the twisted reinforced concrete, gravel, lines and steel plates blocking the road. It looked chaotic and there was no clue at first glance.
An old engineer who looked old walked up to Meng Ding and said.
"I am Wu An, an engineer specializing in tunnel repair. I heard from them that you are the best dismantler. This collapse cannot be dismantled by brute force. It must be manually dismantled in part, and then the support must be built little by little, and finally mechanical work."
Meng Ding was silent for a few seconds and said, "Okay, but we have a request."
"You say."
"You can specify the point, but how to dismantle it is up to us. Anyway, we can meet your requirements in the end!" Meng Ding made a request.
"No problem, this is reasonable."
"Start work!" Meng Ding said to Su Bai and others.
"Okay!"
In the deep dark passage, there was a constant sound of collision.
In the private room, Ye Ying closed her eyes and listened quietly to the sound and frequency of the collision.
She needs to be highly vigilant at all times.
Suddenly, Ye Ying opened her eyes abruptly, and she heard a scream!
A carriage was breached. Ye Ying looked at the watch and the time she expected to pass, and only half of it had passed.
Of course, there was nothing strange about this, because when the train derailed, some parts would definitely be damaged, and the damaged carriages would naturally be more fragile!
But this was not good news, because the partition layer between the carriages was not as strong as the armor outside the train, which was equivalent to shortening the safety time in disguise!
Dong Dong!
There was a sudden rapid knock on Ye Ying's door.
"Open the door! Let us in!"
Hearing the cry for help, Ye Ying's heart sank slightly. It was impossible for the people in this carriage to come out and knock on the door. There was only one possibility, that these people came from the connecting passage in the middle of the next carriage, and the screams she just heard were from the next carriage.
But Ye Ying did not open the door.
The reason was very simple. Her private room was very small and could accommodate a very limited number of people. She clearly heard a lot of footsteps, which meant that a large number of people gathered at her door. People often lose their minds when they are afraid.
This carriage is different from the other carriages. It belongs to the area where rich people live, and it is even more impossible to open the door casually.
Once you foolishly open the door, you will most likely put yourself in danger!
So Ye Ying chose to remain silent!
Sure enough, the people gathered outside, after not getting any response, began to curse angrily!
"You dirty and cowardly guy! Open the door for us quickly, otherwise we will break it open with brute force!"
"Open the door, otherwise we will not be polite!"
...
"Please open the door quickly, there are children and elderly people here! Please be kind."
...
Ye Ying closed her eyes as if she didn't hear it. It was not because she was cruel, but because she was rational enough.
She calmed herself down.
At the entrance of the passage, Su Bai stared at the steel and gravel in front of him. He dug it out bit by bit. Every time he dug out a piece, some fine gravel and dust would fall from the surrounding walls. Su Bai's forehead was dripping with sweat, and his whole clothes were soaked. After all, the cement layer was not as strong as the steel layer.
The overall structure of the entire tunnel is composed of a layer of steel and a layer of cement, which are stacked back and forth. The central tunnel is in the cement layer, which is also the most vulnerable layer.
Er Gouzi and others watched Su Bai working with dry throats.
Su Bai cut and buckled it bit by bit. The entire mechanical arm was very stable. He had to clear a small opening first so that he could reach in and reinforce it later.
Everyone present was excited.
Finally, Su Bai dug a hole steadily.
"Beautiful! Go up and reinforce! Clear the objects on the side!" Meng Ding said excitedly, and he admired it sincerely! It was really amazing balance. He was very worried when he asked Su Bai to do this before, but there was no way. Only Su Bai was equipped with an auxiliary mechanical arm and had such great power to work.
Er Gouzi and others rushed up immediately!
Soon this point was reinforced bit by bit!
Su Bai used this method to open a hole on the other side, put in the telescopic top first, and then cleared the position to put in the steel column. Of course, it was not only the collapsed area that was reinforced, but also supporting steel columns were placed along the way.
"It's OK!" Meng Ding turned his head and said to the people waiting behind.
"Start the operation!" Wu An did not hesitate.
Immediately, those multifunctional mechanical vehicles drove up and began to clean up the collapsed steel bars and gravel in the middle!
Rumble~~
The reinforced concrete slabs were cut open and then pulled out by brute force!
"Great! It's open!" The operator shouted in surprise.
A mini passage that could accommodate a mechanical vehicle was cleared in front of them, and all the operators immediately stopped the operation.
"Keep going!"
Everyone was also stunned and looked at Chen Wu, but then they continued to move forward! Obviously, their top priority was to save people, and they would talk about the rest later!
Su Bai had just taken a few breaths when he followed with a dark face. It must be said that the speed of this group of people moving forward was very fast. After running for more than half an hour, Su Bai was out of breath. It seems that he needs to take care of himself and exercise his body when he has time.
After seeing this, Chen Wu retreated in front of Su Bai without saying a word.
"I'll carry you!"
"Huh?"
"Let's go!" Without any nonsense, Chen Wu carried Su Bai on his back and ran forward!
