Chapter 452 Sudden Mudslide
Some historical processes and major events cannot be changed or rewritten by Chen Tianhua's will.
Therefore, the definition of the Meiguang Autonomous Region must be determined before Zhang Zhidong leaves Huguang.
Chen Tianhua strengthened his mind.
"There is no way. Wen Zaiyong seems to be a very stubborn person. If he doesn't get in, others can't influence his thoughts." Xu Yunyuan tried.
"Well, since this guy can't get enough oil and salt, let's just overturn the stove and don't let him watch the food and eat!" Chen Tianhua's eyes were full of murderous intent as he spoke calmly.
.
…
In late March of the lunar calendar, it rains heavily in mountainous areas, and flash floods break out in some places. Fortunately, the water conservancy facilities in the autonomous region are in place, and large and small reservoirs take the opportunity to absorb flash flood water.
On this day, it started to rain in the middle of the night, and it was raining heavily early in the morning. Liao Yunpeng, director of the Autonomous Region Political Affairs Committee, suggested that since it was raining and it was impossible to walk, it was better to arrange two tables of mahjong to kill time before leaving tomorrow.
But Wen Zaiyong refused. He asked to rush to the train station immediately and then return to Hefei.
Since it had been more than half a month since he arrived in Meiguang Autonomous Region, he had to go back and report the inspection situation and opinions to the governor and others.
"Master Wen, I don't want to hinder your work, but you have seen it yourself. The road conditions here have become very dangerous and complicated under heavy rains. Many mountain roads have no protective measures on the roadside. You may encounter accidents when traveling."
Liao Yunpeng was very dissatisfied and annoyed with this guy's appearance, but as the host, he still had to say what he needed to say.
From the power plant station in Huaikan Town to the railway station in Meishan Town, it is a distance of fifteen or six kilometers. The journey is not far, but there is a mountainous road in the middle.
The mountain roads are all halfway up the mountain, right on the edge of the cliff. Not to mention the potholes, the road surface is slippery and relatively narrow. What should you do if you encounter a sudden flash flood and mudslide?
Driving a carriage to the train station at this time suddenly increases the risk, and it is no different than courting death.
"We are all military attaches and soldiers with salary from the imperial court. We cannot delay the mission given to us by the imperial court just because of weather conditions or some difficulties. If you are worried about the danger, you can wait until the rain stops before leaving. I must leave at noon today
Rush to Changxing and then take the fast boat back to Fei!"
Moon Jae-yong felt as if he had been shaken by a weight.
Because the starting station of Meishan Town has one official carriage every day, it is stipulated that only the eight o'clock train every morning is available, and random carriages are not allowed at other times.
If Wen Zaiyong left again, he would have to catch the eight o'clock train so that there would be an official carriage. Otherwise, he would have to wait for the next day.
There is no other way. When it comes to this, letting him go back alone will show that he is the only one who is loyal to the court, loyal to his duties, and not afraid of hardships and dangers!
"Then let's go together and walk slowly!" Master Liu said helplessly.
It was raining heavily and it was impossible to ride a horse. Liao Yunpeng called the carriages that could be mobilized under the autonomous region and finally put together six carriages.
Both Wen Zaiyong and Mr. Liu are the military chiefs of the yamen of each province. Of course, each officer has his own car. Wen Zaiyong is in front, Mr. Liu is behind, and then there are the entourages from Zhejiang Province and Anhui Province each in one car.
.
The two carriages at the beginning and the rear became the special patrol vehicles and escort vehicles of the military police brigade.
A group of six carriages set off in the heavy rain.
"Damn, this Wen Zaiyong is such a little girl, I'm going to greet his family! Look at the rain, it's hard to see the road ahead, but there is a cliff in front of us, this is deliberately trying to throw us down, this time
Are the roads in heavy rain meant for people to walk on?"
Mr. Liu told the horse driver to drive the carriage carefully while cursing and complaining.
"It's really disgusting. Master Wen has gone too far. He actually used our lives as a bargaining chip for his own future. What a complete bastard!"
The entourages in the two carriages behind were also mumbling, and everyone was feeling unhappy.
In fact, at this time, Wen Zaiyong was also regretting in his heart. Previously, he was just acting out of anger and pretending to be a hero, but he didn't expect the current situation to be so dangerous.
Ahead is a mountain fork that requires a turn. After passing this fork and walking along the mountain road for a while, there is flat land behind.
The car leading the way from the military police in front had just slowly turned around the fork when suddenly, several pieces of mud and rocks rolled down the hillside, and some of them hit the horses of Moon Jae-yong's carriage.
"Ouch..."
The pain on the injured horse was unbearable, and the horse rushed forward suddenly. The driver had no time to react, so he rushed out of the mountain road with the horse and the cart, and fell into the abyss of a hundred feet.
Mr. Liu's car kept a sufficient distance from Wen Zaiyong, and the horse was slow. The driver quickly reined in the horse and finally made the carriage stop on the edge of the cliff.
This scene frightened Mr. Liu and others so much that they were stunned and stunned, and they all collapsed in the car.
It seemed that mud and rocks kept falling in front of them, and the horse team did not dare to walk any further. They could only find a way to turn around and exit the valley road first, and then return to the post house.
…
After hearing the news, everyone in the autonomous region rushed from the administrative center to the power plant posthouse in the rain to express their greetings and comfort.
Chen Tianhua faced these shocked officials and said with a wry smile:
"Look, what can we do? I hope the governor's office will not put this blame on our heads!"
"It's okay, Mr. Governor-General. Don't worry, the governor's office will not cause trouble for you. All of us can testify that this bastard Wen Zaiyong is looking for his own death and almost brought disaster to us all." Mr. Liu said angrily.
.
"Master Chen, we have all witnessed this with our own eyes and will explain it clearly to the governor in person. Master Wen insisted on rushing to the train station in the rain. When he turned a corner in the heavy rain, he encountered a mudslide. If he died, he would be considered unlucky."
An official from Anhui said.
"Yes, Mr. Chen, this matter cannot be blamed on your side. Director Liao specifically warned in advance that the road is dangerous. But Mr. Wen insists on going his own way. He can only blame himself. We are lucky to have saved our lives. Bodhisattva bless you!"
Another Anhui official also followed suit.
These two Anhui officials had always been bullied by Wen Zaiyong, and now that they were dead, they were just adding insult to injury.
When Chen Tianhua took a look at it, he thought it was funny, and he was secretly happy, but he pretended to be sad on the surface, "Falling from the edge of a cliff hundreds of meters high, the possibility of Mr. Wen's survival is almost zero, but we will try our best.
Go to the rescue. When the rain subsides, I will immediately send engineers to rescue him. However, his comprehensive assessment report on the Meiguang area is gone and needs to be rewritten."
He was obviously casting stones to find out what was true.
"This is not a problem. We can rewrite the comprehensive assessment report. Many of the data itself belong to the two of us." The two Anhui officials replied in unison.
Chapter completed!
