Chapter 28 The Yellow River Railway Bridge

Yang Yuanzhao didn't expect that the topic he casually caused would actually set off such a big wave in Feng Yuxiang's heart, and even directly made him question his beliefs, to put it bluntly, Sun Dacang's Three People's Doctrine is just a foreign democratic republic, with a layer of cloak, and even only theory, but no specific implementation strategy, just like Sun Cannon's 100,000 kilometers of railway a year, there is only a false goal, and there is no step-by-step guarantee and implementation strategy, basically, it is shelved, No one cares, since the Xinhai Revolution in 1911, the establishment of the democratic republic of China, is just a name, not in a real sense to change China.

Such a big hidden danger, but not discovered by the elites of this era, the reason is that China is too barren, most of the people, their knowledge level is not high, the vision is more short-sighted, there is a program with obvious goals and revolutionary ideas, you can maintain a large number of people, this is also the root of the League's success, but it is precisely because of this that the organizational structure of the League is incomplete, the power is scattered, even if it has a huge advantage, it is still inferior to Yuan Shikai, so that Yuan Shikai became the first president, It created the Beiyang era, and in a certain sense, set off the root cause of the turmoil in old China, and the military was in power, and the warlords came into being.

Common topics, and exchanges, let them more and more speculative, to be honest, in the late Qing Dynasty and the early years of the Republic of China, this is a troubled era, Yang Yuanzhao himself is just a science and engineering college student, he believes that he can not become an outstanding military leader, even the political leader can not be said to be competent, but the control of a strong army, is the way he must go, without the protection of force, just like a child holding gold ingots in the downtown area, no accident now, does not mean that there will be no accident in the future, accidents are inevitable.

Probably in the evening, after Hebei, into the territory of Henan, it was already the early morning of the next day, Yang Yue also joined them in the chat, but Yang Yue is not very interested in military affairs, for national affairs, he is more in agriculture, but unfortunately the content he is concerned about, except for Yang Yuanzhao can deal with two sentences, Feng Yuxiang and the other three, basically are dumbfounded, as a perennial soldier, they can know that Mai Miao is not a leek, it is already very good, advanced agricultural knowledge, in China, or a blank.

Yang Yue also felt that he began not to extend this topic, but mainly listened to them, among them, Yang Yuanzhao is definitely a major role, whether it is the construction of the army, or the army equipment, or even the application of the achievements of industrialization in society, he is at his fingertips, a feeling of wisdom in his hand, more than a day of travel, so that several young people are more and more familiar, calling each other with words, and in the tone, there is also a lot of enthusiasm.

The afternoon sun made people fall asleep, and after Yang Yuanzhao slept for half an hour, he felt refreshed and asked the conductor that it was already past Anyang.

Anyang is in the territory of Henan, is a very small city, but in the Republic of China, but because of the keel famous in the world of small cities, at this time, is still a quiet corner of China, to be honest, oracle bone inscription, this must be on the Cheng dù, the days of China's historical records, upgraded hundreds of thousands of years of small city, Yang Yuanzhao is looking forward to it, but unfortunately there is no way to visit in person, but Yang Yuanzhao secretly made up his mind, oracle bone inscription, this treasure in Chinese history, must be protected in advance, future generations of China, It has not been determined whether it is 3000 years or 5000 years of ancient civilization, the reason is that the Xia Dynasty recorded in the history books, there has never been a relic of the appearance, by the international community, identified as a tribe rather than a kingdom, as the closest to the Xia Dynasty Shang Dynasty, there must be some records about the Xia Dynasty, later generations because of poor protection, a large number of keels were lost, after the war, to the founding of New China

The number of keels that are finally summarized is not too much, but even these keels also prove that the oracle bone inscription is stored zài, so to speak, it is ironclad evidence that Yin Shang once stored zài, and now, Yin Ruins has not been found, keels are sporadically unearthed, but they are all in Chinese medicine stores, with the help of this opportunity, collecting keels is a good choice, as for money, a gold mine guarded, are you afraid of no money?

The train continued to move forward, and for a whole day, the front slowed down again, Yang Yuanzhao was depressed for a while, and said: "Stop again, this time, I don't know how long it will stop!" ”

"This time, some waited!" Feng Yuxiang said that in the past two days, the more I talked with Yang Yuanzhao, the more I felt that Yang Yuanzhao's knowledge was not as broad as it was, and Yang Yue was also an international student, even a little older than Yang Yuanzhao, but Yang Yue did not have such a knowledgeable ability.

"Brother Feng, what's the matter, why do you want to stop?"

"Look at the side, are you almost on the bank of the Yellow River?"

Yang Yuanzhao followed the car window, looked into the distance, in the distance, a yellow, in the center of the loess, a big river with waves came into view, the Yellow River, there is still no reservoir, and even the bridge is only one in front of the Yellow River.

The surging waves, with surging passion, rushed into the distance, rushed into the sea, the Yellow River, the mother river of China, in the military, is an absolute natural danger, the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, in history, the battle for these two rivers has always been the focus of the dynasty hegemony, how many battles to destroy the country, started along the Yellow River and the Yangtze River, thousands of miles, I don't know how many bones were buried.

In the past, there was no bridge on the Yellow River, anyone who wants to cross the river, must rely on ferry, along with the construction of the Yellow River railway bridge in Zhengzhou, it is one of the largest railway bridges in Chinese history, this bridge opened the beginning of China's large river bridge, since then the Yellow River is no longer in the moat, next, the goal to conquer, is the Yangtze River.

Along the railway, looking forward, Yang Yuanzhao was stunned, he saw a dilapidated railway bridge, Pinghan Railway, opened to traffic for more than 2 years, but this Yellow River railway bridge is very dilapidated, rust can be seen almost everywhere, the bridge built casually in later generations is much stronger than this railway bridge.

"This bridge?" Yang Yuanzhao was hesitating, in front, there was a sound of spitting and spitting, a locomotive that was much smaller than their locomotive, appeared in front, crossed the railway, entered the front of their train, on the platform, many staff went in and out, as if disassembling the train.

The train can be disassembled, and each carriage is connected to each other by an activity hook, but is this a terminal station, why is it disassembled? Could it be that something went wrong again.

"Uncle Guang, they seem to be dismantling the train?" Yang Yuanzhao asked in surprise.

"Young Master Yang, that's right, they're just dismantling the train?" Uncle Guang said calmly.

"Why?" Yang Yuanzhao's eyes widened, and asked curiously, he can accept the parking before, in China in this era, the conditions of the road are far from being compared with later generations, there is no rapid response mechanism, only relying on the reaction and ability of the railway company itself, it is relatively slow to repair, but this is all on the middle of the road, and the train has to be disassembled, is there any mistake.

"That's right, Young Master Yang, the train must be dismantled, because the railway bridge can't withstand it!" Uncle Guang pointed to the railway bridge in the distance and said.

"Can't bear it?" Yang Yuanzhao looked at the train under his feet, and then looked at the railway bridge in front of him, this train is a light rail, but no matter how light rail, the whole is a train made of steel, and its weight has reached about several tons, 11 carriages, plus the front and passengers, I am afraid that it is a hundred tons, and the ordinary bridge can withstand several tons of things, it is terrible, not to mention a hundred tons, which small locomotive, I am afraid it is also a consideration of quality and power, and there is no way to disassemble the train.

I have long heard that the Yellow River railway bridge, the use of steel from the Hanyang Iron Works, when I studied history, I once mentioned that the reason why the Hanyang Iron Works is dilapidated, on the one hand, is because there is no distinction between public and private, the yamen and the company, when the two are combined into one, the social atmosphere of the late Qing Dynasty, it is simply a hotbed of corruption, on the other hand, it is their own reasons, the content of sulfur and phosphorus in the Hanyang Iron Works is higher, and the alkaline refractory bricks that should be used to neutralize the acid and alkali and improve the strength of the steel, but they are used as acidic, and the two are superimposed together. Even if a god descends to earth, it cannot change the fate of the Hanyang Iron Works that eventually went bankrupt.

Yang Yuanzhao looked at the rolling river outside the window, but what he was thinking about was the Hanyang Iron Works thousands of miles away.
