- Zheng Ruozeng had just stepped onto the Gedi from the earth embankment when he heard an earth-shaking loud noise behind him.
He subconsciously looked back and saw that the river embankment, which was more than ten feet high, collapsed quickly like boiling soup and pouring snow, and in the blink of an eye, a gap of more than ten feet wide was opened.
And the breach is still expanding rapidly.
The flood, black and foamy, surged through the breach. However, it was restrained by the barriers on both sides and could not spread to both sides, so it had no choice but to pour all its strength angrily towards the front barrier!
There was another loud noise, and the flood with infinite power hit the distant embankment solidly!
That embankment made of rubble and concrete remained motionless in the huge waves, unscathed!
Zheng Ruozeng finally recovered his breathing. He found that his legs were weak and he was trembling involuntarily.
He was almost carried by his son across the Geti and came to the Yaodi, where he met Pan Jixun and Zhao Hao and his son.
Under the distant embankment behind them.
Countless torches struggled tenaciously in the rain. The peasants wore bamboo hats and raincoats, and more of them were bare-chested and waiting nervously.
Behind them, bags of sand and gravel have been packed, ready to repair this last line of defense. It has only been half a month since the construction started, and the moon embankment outside the distant embankment has not yet been repaired.
The peasants raised their heads and watched intently the reaction of the great master and others on the embankment.
Zhao Shouzheng and others on the embankment lowered their heads and stared at the stone embankment under their feet.
Every time a wave hits them, it¡¯s like hitting them in the heart. Let everyone's hearts rise to their throats together.
When the waves passed and they saw that the embankment was safe and sound, everyone was relieved
This strange sharing of frequencies made Mr. Zhao finally understand what it means to "breathe the same breath and share the same destiny".
Fortunately, the flood peak came quickly and went away quickly.
An hour later, the fierce Jiang Chao gradually calmed down.
In just one hour, the outer earth embankment had been washed away with a huge gap of thirty feet.
But the concrete embankment under the feet of Zhao Hao and the others remained motionless!
Even those vertical lattice embankments are safe and sound!
"The concrete ones are so terrifying!" Pan Jixun breathed a long sigh of relief and said to Zhao Shouzheng: "It depends on Nanshan Temple, Sanjiangkou and Longwang Temple. As long as there are no problems in those three places, the whole county should be able to defend it."
The embankments in the remaining sections of the river are basically in the same direction as the water flow, so they will naturally not be affected much. Even if the remote embankments have not been built yet, it will not be a big problem.
Within half an hour, reports came from the three dangerous sections. Without exception, the earth embankments collapsed and the stone embankments were intact!
Mr. Zhao then breathed a sigh of relief, turned around, raised his arms and shouted: "We succeeded!"
Hearing the big master¡¯s words, the nervous villagers immediately burst into cheers of relief, as if they had won a victory in fighting the flood.
Pan Jixun was as happy as a child. He took Zhao Hao's hand and shook it vigorously. He was so excited that he couldn't speak.
Mr. Zhao felt that he was about to fall apart. I could vaguely hear Lao Pan saying vaguely: "Okay, the merits are immeasurable curing yellow there is hope"
Zhao Hao smiled bitterly and said: "Zhongcheng, don't be too happy too early. We can't make a conclusion until the entire flood season is over."
"You kid, why are you more careful than me?" Pan Jixun rolled his eyes at him and said: "For half a month, I have been observing the changes in the concrete every day. The thing is getting harder and harder, and the taste is well, in short, it is getting stronger and stronger. !¡±
"Haha, that's good." Zhao Hao said with a smile: "By the way, I have come up with a new formula of cement. Would you like to give it a try, Zhong Cheng? Is this considered a celebration of winning the first battle?"
"Okay, okay!" Pan Jixun was overjoyed at first, then glared at him and said, "Get out! What kind of celebration is this?!"
Mr. Zhao laughed loudly, thinking that this arrogant old man who was talking nonsense was extremely cute even when he looked like he was eating dirt.

Every year during the hurricane season, Governor Yingtian would move to Suzhou to prevent wind and floods.
Yingtianxunfuxingtai is located in the center of Suzhou City, within the jurisdiction of Wuxian County. It was originally the location of Heshan Academy. Later, when Governor Yingtian began to stay in Suzhou, the academy was changed into a government office.
In front of the eight-character wall of the Yamen, there stands a three-foot-tall flagpole with a bucket, on which hangs the blue and gold-lettered flag of "Prime Minister of Grain Reserves, Admiral of Military Affairs and Governor of Yingtian and other Mansion", demonstrating the great authority of the No. 1 governor in the world. .
The hurricane is fierce and violent, but not as gentle as the rainy season. It only torments Kunshan. When the hurricane strikes, the entire town of Susongchang faces severe flood control pressure.
The taxation of the imperial court depends on Jiang? Look at Su Song, if one of the taxes and taxes in Jiangnan is not handled well, they will all go to waste, and the court will have a hard time.
Therefore, among the official titles of Governor Yingtian, the first one is ¡®Governor-General of Grain Reserve¡¯. Therefore, in July and August, the governor's overriding task is to prevent floods and ensure the autumn harvest.
Fortunately, this hurricane came and went quickly, and the rain stopped after more than a day. Two days later, the water level dropped, and the warning was temporarily lifted.
In the second hall of the Xingtai, the handsome Lin Run and Lin Zhongcheng were wearing a crimson official robe, revealing the snow-white collar underneath. He supported his chiseled cheek with one hand and listened calmly to the report of Cai Guoxi, the prefect of Suzhou.
"Fortunately, the hurricane came and went quickly, so the counties were not severely affected this time." Cai Guoxi said, looking at Yang Chenglin, the magistrate of Wu County, who was standing opposite, and silently gave him a pot.
"Only the situation in Wu County is a little more serious. Let Magistrate Yang report it to Zhongcheng himself."
"Yeah." Lin Run responded, sat up straight and looked at Yang Zhixian.
"Reporting to Zhongcheng, the water has risen too fast and has overflowed the lake embankment, flooding more than 100,000 acres of crops in the Xijing Bay, Guangfu Town, and Xushuguan areas." Yang Chenglin secretly said that it was bad luck, and other county magistrates came to report it. That's it, but I have to face the storm personally.
People say, ¡®If you didn¡¯t practice cultivation in your previous life, your country and county will be the same as Guo¡¯. I am afraid that I will do evil in my three lives
After a pause, Yang Chenglin braced his head and said: "There are also 890,000 acres south of Wangshan Mountain and north of Dongshan Mountain that were also affected by the disaster"
"How much land does your Wu County have in total?!" Lin Ruoyu said with a serious look on her face: "200,000 acres were flooded in one go?!"
"A total of one million acres," Yang Zhixian replied in a low voice: "There are still 800,000 acres"
"Isn't 20% enough?!" Lin Zhongcheng suddenly had a frosty face, slapped the table and shouted: "This is the first hurricane, and you have lost the river embankment. I think you are tired of wearing your black gauze hat!"
Yang Chenglin was so frightened that he quickly knelt down and leaned over, sweating profusely.
I heard that Lin Zhongcheng is "looking like Pan An, but like Zhang Tang in heart". It seems that the rumors are true.
"Zhongcheng, calm down." Magistrate Cai, who succeeded in passing the blame, naturally took the blame.
"Fortunately, the water recedes quickly, so not all the 200,000 acres of seedlings will be destroyed. If we seize the time to replant, the harvest should not be affected"
"Humph." Lin Run snorted coldly, knowing that Cai Guoxi's words made sense, but he also felt that he was being conceited.
Now that the summer grain has been harvested, how can the seedlings of late rice that have just been planted not long ago withstand the ravages of floods?
¡°However, if we hurry up and replant seedlings, we can recover the losses.
With this thought, he let poor Magistrate Yang go, and asked Magistrate Cai: "How is the situation in Kunshan?"
