After two days of hard work, Zhang Fu and all the survey team members of the Tongtianhe project arrived at Doka Village near the Yarlung Zangbo River Bend. Here, they were about to organize the final equipment, then headed northward, climbed Ziyanna Peak, and then headed northeast along the ridge, bypassed Zhibalongba, turned south from the Chamna Ridge, and climbed Chidan Peak.

This is an extremely difficult route, with a total length of more than 30 kilometers, an average climbing altitude of more than 4,000 meters, and there will be no supply along the way. There are soft frozen soil and snow nests everywhere, and there are even a small number of cracks left by glaciers. If you are not careful, you will fall into it.

After climbing Chidan Mountain, they will conduct a comprehensive survey of local soil and rock formations, draw high-precision topographic maps, and measure the target data to demonstrate the feasibility of the plan.

After completing all this, they will continue to head north, pass the ridge of Qiuzhu Lomba, and reach the village of Sevaka, until this time they will not receive their first supply.

After walking this section of the road, it is another 20 kilometers away.

The 50-kilometer road seems not far. If you are on the plain, ordinary people who walk fast can even walk within one day. However, under the conditions of high cold plateau and snow-covered mountains, being able to walk 10 kilometers a day is already the limit of the human body, not to mention that they are carrying various equipment.

Therefore, they arranged this short 50 kilometers of road according to a 10-day schedule.

In the Party and Mass Service Station of Doka Village, Zhang Fu put down his heavy backpack, breathed a long sigh of relief, and then said to the team member named Li Rui:

"Hey, I can't do it anymore, it's arrogance..."

Li Rui glanced at him and said with some annoyance:

"Are you sick? You still smoke altitude sickness, aren't you afraid of death?"

"You don't understand. I'm psychologically rebellious. Just have a cigarette-----How come you are scrambling? Didn't you finish my two packs of swimming these two days? Do you know how much that thing costs? My old man couldn't bear to smoke, so he asked me to steal it out to honor you."

"Then you are so filial to me."

Although Li Rui was not merciless, his hands were still very honest. He took out two bags of Fuchun Mountain House from his backpack and threw them in front of Zhang Fu, and then reminded him:

"You really don't want to shoot a little. You'll be ready to go up the mountain tomorrow morning. Now our altitude is only 1,600, and it will rise to 4,000 within a few hours. If there is a high reversal, it will kill people."

During the previous two days of getting along, it only took a few hours for the rich second generation Zhang Fu and Li Rui to get along with each other from getting to know each other. Compared with the rest of the team, they have more common languages.

Of course, this does not mean that they have a bad relationship with other team members. On the contrary, because of their versatile way of dealing with things, the number one person in the entire survey team has a good impression of them, and some even bluntly said that they broke their usual prejudices against the rich second generation.

What do ordinary people think of rich second generations?

Li Rui's family is in the financial industry and the circle he comes into contact with is also on the upper level. He may not understand it very much, but Zhang Fu's family started out from hard work and had all the various religions and all walks of life, so he knew very well.

Ignorance, ignorant, sensual, colorful, and rich......

It is undeniable that I can indeed use these words to describe it before - Isn't it just like this for a peaceful and prosperous dandy? But Zhang Fu asked himself that he had never done anything disgusting, and most of his energy was spent on several mountaineering and adventure activities a year.

The only time I fell into gossip news was that I was caught by the green tea.

So, in fact, in many cases, he does not recognize his identity as a rich second generation--he thinks that he is just a very rich muddy person, just a big resentment.

Zhang Fu opened a pack of cigarettes and scattered the other smoking team members around him. Seeing this, other people in the team who did not smoke hid aside. He did not pretentiously say that he wanted everyone to go outside to smoke because he knew that in the difficult tasks that were about to begin, the most important thing was to tolerate and support each other. Since the captain did not speak, he would just stay honestly.

He took a deep breath of cigarette, then asked the captain Qinghao who was smoking aside:

"Do we have new equipment? I have checked the equipment before, and the emergency fuel preparation is too little. I calculated that it is basically only enough for 64 hours of use. If you encounter wind and snow on the mountain, the heat source will last too short, which is very dangerous."

Qing Hao nodded and replied:

"After reacting with the superiors, they will transfer a batch from Ganden Township and arrive tonight. But now there is a problem. Our equipment weight is basically close to saturation. If we want to bring fuel, we will either be overweight or consider abandoning other equipment."

Hearing his words, the other members of the team frowned. After a moment, Zhang Fu spoke:

"Or else throw away the high-power flashlight? I'm not using this thing to think about."

"No, there are wolves on the mountain this season. You can't throw flashlights without throwing anything. Otherwise, if you really encounter a pack of wolves, we can only burn tents to make fire."

The person who spoke was Li Fang, the guard of the survey team. He was an active-duty soldier like another security guard. If you were to say that you had a simple experience in plateau climbing, you might not be better than Zhang Fu, a field expert, but when it comes to safety guarantee work, no one could question their opinions.

"What about reducing two tents? Now, a double tent can hold three people. One tent can occupy six alpine gas tanks. The 12 gas tanks can last for 48 hours. In addition to our original reserves, it is basically enough."

"Tents cannot be reduced. It is very important to rest in a constant hypoxia environment. The space for sleeping in two people in a tent and sleeping in three people is very different. If there is a bad rest, it will take 10 days, and 3 days will be almost dead."

"...It's not that exaggerating. I didn't sleep for 36 hours when I climbed Mount Everest."

"That's you. You are one of the best physically strong people in our team. Others' physical strength cannot reach this level. I suggest to be more conservative and not reduce anything. Liu Chu and I can memorize more - so too. Let's share the burden. It's better to walk slowly than not be able to walk."

Hearing his words, Zhang Fu nodded in thought and replied:

"Then follow this plan first. Brother Hao, what do you say?"

"I agree, what about the others?"

"agree."

After collecting everyone's opinions, the discussion on emergency fuel finally decided on the plan. Several people walked out of the house and explained the precautions clearly, and then they all scattered their own free movements.

Zhang Fu and Li Rui followed Qing Hao, and the three of them walked to the riverside together. Looking at the wide river surface, Zhang Fu said with emotion:

"From this perspective, it's a bit fantastic to move this and to the northwest."

"Look, looking to the west is Nangabawa Peak, surrounded by mountains. Not to mention the northwest, the height difference between here and Palon Zangbo is close to three thousand meters."

"Is there any water conservancy project in this world that can lift a river three thousand meters? I don't seem to have heard of it."

"The highest water head of the pumped storage power station in Changlong Mountain is 800 meters, which should be the largest pump station project we have built. The technology is still developing now. If the Huayuan Academy creates nuclear fusion power generation and the energy problem is solved, we can build 3 to 4 step pump stations in this area to pump up water in stages."

"Even if there is no fusion power generation, power transfer from the Yarlung Zangbo River Hydropower Station can fully support the operation of the pump station, and there is no problem in technical terms."

After listening to Qing Hao's explanation, Zhang Fu and Li Rui nodded thoughtfully.

In fact, they do not know these technical details. In this survey team, their role is closer to that of professional consultants, responsible for professional technical guidance on survival in the wild and mountaineering, and do not understand the overall structure of the plan.

So in the last time before departure, Zhang Fu planned to talk more about Qinghao------As his old man said, he always had to go further and learn more about what he didn't know in order to go further in the future.

"I heard before that the Tongtianhe project has a decreasing elevation. Why do we have to build a pump station when we come here? Isn't this the more general strategy the opposite?"

Hearing Zhang Fu's question, Qing Hao shook his head and replied:

"The decreasing elevation is another route. That route takes from Anbei Mountain to Jinzhu Zangbu, to Jinzhu Qu, and then goes east along National Highway 219."

"That route was very smooth in the early stage and did not require too much engineering volume. However, after the merger of Jinzhuqu and Gongrigabuqu, we must find a way to cross Kongzanglong, pass through Luozhi Glacier and Yalan Glacier, and arrive at Anmucuo."

"The project volume in this section is not a joke. There are steep cliffs on both sides of the straits. Although the height difference is only 2,000 meters, the construction is very difficult - only one pump station can reach the top. Moreover, the route needs to run through the river channel and many culverts need to be built."

"More importantly, the elevation of that section of the river itself is relatively high, and there are many sections of the river that need to be built, which can almost be said to make the river water flow against the flow... Think about the difficulty of this."

"So, we are now taking the Palon Zangbo route--what is this? Saturation is surveying."

"In the end, it depends on whoever has a high feasibility and overall profit, and it will use his plan."

"You have to know that our group of more than a dozen survey teams represent more than a dozen routes. This is just at the source, with tens of thousands of kilometers of waterways and more than a thousand teams behind. Think about how many versions of the plan there are."

Zhang Fu nodded and didn't say anything.

In fact, before coming, he had already learned about the background and details of the Tongtianhe project from various channels, and also knew that this was a miracle project with huge investment and would definitely be included in the history of human engineering after completion. However, the shock he was at that time was far less than that of Qing Hao's simple words.

There are more than 1,000 survey teams and nearly 20,000 professional or non-professional survey personnel.

The geological surveying power of the entire country has basically been drained.

The courage shown in this made him dazzled.

At this time, the sunset was gradually set, and the golden top of Nangabawa Peak in the distance was shining brightly. Others in the team took out their phones to open the photos. Zhang Fu subconsciously turned on the camera of his phone, but hesitated for a moment, but he did not take pictures of the beautiful mountain.
