After drifting all the way, after so many geographical burdens, the water finally gradually calmed down, and a long embankment appeared on the far horizon. Pen ~ fun ~ pavilion www.biquge.info

Dayu stood up excitedly, pointed to the embankment in the distance and said to Tang Dou: "Father, the embankment in front is the Chongdi that my father spent fifteen years leading the people to build. ”

Under the unremitting efforts of Tang Dou children's shoes, Dayu finally understood that the word "Ya's" can not be used for elders or respected people, and can only be used among good friends of the same generation.

Tang Dou looked at the majestic embankment between the sea and the sky in the distance, and couldn't help but sigh softly.

From a distance alone, Chongdi is probably a hundred miles long, and such a huge amount of work may be able to catch up with the Beijing-Hangzhou Grand Canal or the Great Wall in this era.

Tang Dou looked at Dayu and asked, "How many people are there in your Chongjing?" ”

Tang Dou doesn't have to think about it to know that in this era, the population base may not even be as good as the population base of a second-tier city in later generations, and a large-scale project like Chongdi is definitely a huge burden for the people and money in this era.

Dayu is obviously very familiar with the situation in Chongjing, after all, this is his father's territory, hereditary, and this will be his territory in the future.

Dayu looked at Tang Dou and said: "Father, in Chongjing, our Xiahou clan is the largest clan, with a population of about 73,000 people, and there are more than a dozen other clans, the largest Mi Xie clan has about 21,000 people, the youngest Fulan clan has only more than 4,000 people, and the total population of our Chongjing is about 152,000 people. ”

"That's the kind of person?" Tang Dou was taken aback, he didn't know how big the Chongjing was in reality, but he probably knew that Dayu's father, Chong, his fiefdom Chong almost included most of the modern society's Jin, Hebei, Luyu, and Yu regions, with a total area of about one million square kilometers, such a large area, there were only 150,000 people, and this population base was not as good as a county in later generations.

Dayu looked at Tang Dou in surprise and asked, "Father, what is the population of your Jinling Upper Realm?" Among the nine fiefdoms in Chongjing, we are already the most populous, and the total population of Yongdi, the least populated, is less than 30,000. ”

Tang Dou's heart moved, nine fiefdoms? Could it be the predecessor of Kyushu?

Tang Dou looked at Dayu curiously and asked, "Will there be a war between your nine fiefdoms?" ”

Some people say that where there are people, there is war, and Tang Dou has always believed in this view, but at this moment he wavered.

According to Dayu, the total population of the nine fiefdoms together may not be one million people, and China's more than 9 million kilometers of vast space, according to the capita, a person has almost nine square kilometers of living space, such a vast living space, he really can't think of any reason for people to war.

Sure enough, Dayu looked at Tang Dou and asked, "Father, what is war?" ”

Yes, it is another new term that Dayu can't understand.

Tang Dou thought for a while and said: "War, it is a large-scale struggle launched by the two hostile sides in order to achieve the purpose of occupation, plunder, or enslavement, do you understand when I say this?" ”

Dayu blinked and thought for a long time, looked at Tang Dou and asked, "Why don't they find a tribal leader to coordinate?" ”

Tang Dou pounced, looked at Dayu with tears in his eyes and asked, "Could it be that there has never been a war between your nine territories?" ”

Dayu thought for a long time, shook his head, looked at Tang Dou and said: "No, each tribe has its own way of survival, and everyone is far away, basically there will be no conflict, even if one or two people occasionally have a dispute over some things, basically someone comes out to negotiate and it will be resolved, and generally even the patriarch will not be alarmed." ”

Tang Dou couldn't help but stretch out his hand and hugged Dayu: "When I retire in the future, I will definitely come over to live with you." ”

It's so simple, so simple that it's unbelievable, if you have to add an adjective, it's too simple, so simple that people want to cry.

Dayu looked at Tang Dou inexplicably, he didn't understand why Tang Dou was moved by this.

Tang Dou patted Dayu's arm, looked at Dayu and asked, "Yu, you haven't told me how you were trapped in the water." ”

Hearing Tang Dou ask this question, Dayu said with some sadness: "This year's water situation is serious, I was already in this generation to check the water situation, I heard that the embankment of the river has cracked, I hurriedly took people to check, I didn't expect that we just arrived at the embankment, the embankment of the river burst." ”

Dayu took a deep breath and said sadly: "Fifty-two people with me, after the dam burst, all the people who walked with me were swallowed up by the flood, and when I was in danger, the wrestlers who accompanied me pushed me to the top of the tree, but he himself was submerged by the flood. It's all my fault, I brought dozens of people to try to stop the river from bursting......"

Tang Dou could see that Dayu was sad and guilty from the bottom of his heart, he stretched out his hand and patted Dayu's shoulder and said: "The deceased is gone, your starting point is not wrong, but in the face of natural disasters, manpower is sometimes not much different from the power of ants." ”

Dayu raised his head suddenly, looked at Tang Dou and said firmly: "Father, pass on my skills, I must control the beast of the flood, even if I put my life into it, I will not hesitate." ”

I am afraid that it was at this moment that Dayu determined his determination to spend his life to cure the floods.

Tang Dou nodded vigorously, looked at Dayu and said, "Don't worry, I will do my best to help you subdue the flood." ”

"Hmm", Dayu also nodded vigorously, and for the first time took the initiative to reach out and hold Tang Dou's hand, this way of shaking hands made him feel very close to Tang Dou.

At this time, the rubber boat that Tang Dou and Dayu were riding had approached Chongdi, because Chongdi blocked the water potential, the flood was blocked here, and there was a backflow.

Tang Dou patted Dayu, reached out to pick up the folding oar, and said to Dayu: "Paddle, dock." ”

Dayu nodded, and also reached out to pick up the folding paddle.

At this time, the sharp-eyed people on the embankment also saw the rubber boat drifting over, and saw Dayu riding on the rubber boat, and couldn't help cheering: "It's Yu, Yu is still alive, Yu, hurry up and dock, the Holy King and Chongbo are also here." ”

Holy King? Emperor Shun?

Tang Dou couldn't help but get excited, the Four Great Masters of Ancient China, Yao Shunyu Tang, I didn't expect to see two of them in one day today. (To be continued.) )
