The sky was dark, and the light provided by the torches seemed so insignificant in this cloudy night.

However, it is in this environment that countless villagers are flocking to the embankment like a tide.

Wang Lanling stands by the river, which is the main channel of the Heishui River and the northern river of Heishui County.

"Lord Wang, are you really going to block it?"

Qian Maocai, the city patrol division, stood beside Wang Lanling, slightly humbled his spine, and a look of danger and anxiety appeared on his face.

Behind him were the soldiers of the City Patrol Division, and further outside these people, there was a crowd of people.

Countless old men and laborers from the countryside with earthy yellow faces stood there and watched quietly, waiting for the final decision.

Wang Lanling did not hesitate, from the moment he knew the true thoughts of the county town, and from the moment he messed around without consulting him at all, and did not give him the slightest thing to do to redeem these people, Wang Lanling decided to fight against them!

Wang Lanling never thought about stopping the flood discharge, he felt that he didn't need to use his mantis arm as a car to block this irreversible trend.

Yunshui County is indeed a big place, much better than Heishui County, Wang Lanling feels that even if he sits in the position of Yunshui County, he will do this.

The discharge of flood water to Heishui County is a reasonable thing in Wang Lanling's opinion.

Although it is a little unauthentic to the people of Heishui County, the county has also sent food, so do what you can to compensate for it.

This is Wang Lanling's previous mentality, from the very beginning, it was a negative water control, a positive evacuation, and a positive way for everyone to learn some skills and know people.

After seeing the real thoughts of Yunshui County, Wang Lanling discovered the true positioning of Heishui County for Yunshui County.

Not only is it as simple as the flood discharge area, but even the coal mines, iron mines and other mining areas in the upper reaches of Heishui County are also the targets of Yunshui County!

The real political struggle will never be so obvious, and the coveted interests and bottom line will never be leaked.

Compared with the real battlefield, this political struggle is more complex and intense than ever.

Once Heishui County is flooded, there will be problems with the daily transportation of materials in the mining area, and some key places will inevitably be taken over.

Yunshui County lacks minerals, everything depends on the transportation and blending of Shanzhou, this is the land of fish and rice, only Heishui County, which is close to Shanzhou, has a large number of mining areas.

Heishui County has always been an area bound to the mouth of the mountain cliff, and it is not the right way in terms of humanity, history and language.

No one wants to move at the mouth of the mountain cliff, but the artisan population of Heishui County and the mining area under its jurisdiction are high-quality resources that any big city needs!

Those people in Yunshui County lack an opportunity to expand their influence, and they lack a reasonable reason to reach here!

The reason why the county commander was transferred away at a critical moment in this kind of military talent is definitely not a coincidence at this time, that kind of thing should be done as the governor of the locals!

Dongfang Wei not only passed by himself, but also took away some elites in the county.

The county order is a person from the imperial court, and although the two officials of Yunshui County are also from the imperial court, they are also from Yunshui County.

If there is no well-known ruler, Heishui County will definitely be a plate of scattered sand at that time, looking forward to the king.

The most wrong decision made by the people of Yunshui County was to hand over the matter of water control to Wang Lanling, a young man who seemed to be ignorant.

"Plug it! All the responsibilities are on me, and I will bear them alone! ”

Wang Lanling decisively gave an order!

"Do it!"

The two people who were the first to line up on the embankment were shaking their hands at this time, and in front of them was the mouth of the big river with the rushing water!

The Heishui River is a river channel that Heishui County leads down from the upstream, and at this time, Wang Lanling is bringing tens of thousands of people to block the mouth of the river at this time!

Yunshui County belongs to the Qinghe Plain, and the various counties of Yunzhou are separated by rivers, so the waterways are very developed.

If the water level of the Heishui River rises and the cities along the river will rise, and a large area of fertile land will become paddy fields.

At that time, it was still another county under the jurisdiction of Yunshui County, as well as a major city in the county capital below.

Since ancient times, prosperous cities have been located by the river, relying on water power for transportation, irrigation, and transportation.

Once this side takes the initiative and floods the other county government next door, the entanglements will be uncountable, not only will Heishui County be hated, but those people in Yunshui County will not be much better.

The speed of the water flow varies from place to place, especially the large amount of precipitation that gathers in a short period of time, which is full of unpredictability, and once it is diverted by strong inertia in the river, then things will become uncontrollable after that.

If the downstream cannot discharge the flood in time, the upstream that gathers a large amount of rainwater will definitely be unlucky!

Originally, there were two mouths of water, but now Wang Lanling is flipping the table, and he wants to block the one close to his house and suffocate those people above!

Zhou Wende from the Civil Code Division also came over, and he also said anxiously: "Lord Wang, think twice!" This estuary is just on the bend, the water flow is not fast at ordinary times, most of it is down to our county, and now this is blocked, I am afraid that it will directly rush out of the river and flood the fields in the east! ”

"I've made up my mind, I don't need to persuade again!" Wang Lanling ignored these people and walked directly to the embankment.

At the mouth of the river, fifty meters wide, Dong Guo had already thrown a javelin tied to a rope to the opposite bank.

After this rope was fixed to the ground on both sides and straightened, the subsequent javelins were quickly put into place.

In just five or six minutes, the rope bridge consisting of thirty thick ropes was built.

On both sides of the embankment, a large number of bags of earth and stones have been loaded, as well as stout tree trunks.

"Do it!" Wang Lanling looked at the man standing there and urged with a cold face.

Under Wang Lanling's gaze, the two men nervously pushed the cart and pushed the cart loaded with a large number of stones towards the mouth with great effort.

The cart was tied with ropes and iron bars to the stones, and as the cart approached the embankment, the two men pushed the cart forward with force, bringing their hands that were lying on the handlebars.

The heavy stone and the car fell into the rushing river, and although the current was fast, it was not enough to push away the heavy and bulky thing, and it fell directly under the river in its place.

"Go on! Move fast! Floods can come at any time! When the time comes, it will be our hometown behind us that will be flooded! ”

It's dark here, and when the moon is covered with dark clouds, it doesn't matter if you just rely on the campfire by the river.

But even so, this precipitous project is being done in a hurry.

The embankment is several meters above the city below, and people need to push their carts up the ramp so that they can be diverted to the road on the embankment.

People on both sides of the estuary are rapidly pouring stones downward, reducing the width of the estuary.

This alone is not enough, and the dirt bags that go down can easily be washed away by the increasingly turbulent current.

Just as standing in a river will only block a small part of the water, when you are at the mouth of the dam, the many powerful forces that gather the water can easily wash away the behemoth.

The people on both sides began to strengthen the rope continuously, and when the rope bridge was built, Hu Guiqiao personally carried a dirt bag to the center of the river.

After tying the bag there with a rope around his waist, Hu Guiqiao carefully left the rope bridge, returned to the shore and returned with a bag of soil.

Wang Lanling stood quietly by the river, looking at the dark figure that could be seen because of the appearance of the moon.

He couldn't see what the man looked like, and he didn't know who the man was, but there were some things he would remember.

As the pressure on the rope continued to be heavy, the people on both sides began to untie part of the rope, so that the more than ten dirt bags tied in the center pressed more than a dozen ropes close to the river.

These ropes serve as a fixed effect, like fishing nets, across the river, blocking the falling dirt bags and logs from being washed away by the river.

Wang Lanling doesn't know how to march and fight, but he is unconsciously mastering the skills that many generals in the army must have, and even many famous generals can't.

In the process of controlling the water, Wang Lanling has unknowingly mastered another military skill, water attack!

"Be fast! Faster!! ”

Wang Lanling urged loudly again, if you are a little careless in this kind of embankment, you will end up playing yourself to death.

The river on both sides had been reinforced by Wang Lanling before, and Wang Lanling's initial idea was to let the flood water break out of the embankment, flood the fertile fields in the east, and save Heishui County as much as possible.

But the premise of this kind of thing is that the county is willing to greet Wang Lanling when the flood is discharged, and let Wang Lanling quickly organize people to evacuate.

Now that I think about it, I was stupid.

Where are those people worried about their own safety, they are anxious to send people to supervise, and check again and again whether Wang Lanling is passive and slacking off, what they want is not to protect their own safety, but also to your life!

In this kind of struggle, some people are sold and have to help others count the money and think about others.

This vicious scheme completely angered Lord Xiao Wang.

Why do we have to accommodate you here?!

I'm going to make a big deal out of it today!

Everyone, we all have difficulties!!
