Yang Kai did something that shocked Li Ze.

In fact, when Li Ze and others rushed to the embankment, the embankment could no longer be saved. Li Zeren hadn't dismounted yet, and Shi Zhuang had already asked Tu Lichun to immediately take Li Ze to move into the distance.

Looking at the bubbling pipes in the fields behind the embankment, and looking at the embankments that are collapsing, Li Ze's mind is buzzing, this is not far from the county seat of Xindu, once the embankment bursts, the damage caused will be incalculable.

The current Xindu is not the Xindu of the past, it is crowded with people who have migrated from Texas, nearly 20,000 people, living in the county seat.

Looking back at the gentle chestnut river in the past, roaring and rolling up the waves, hitting the embankment again and again, Li Ze's mind went blank.

The rammed earth walls of Sindu, which were not even covered with bricks, would never have been able to withstand such a flood. Don't look at the problem of a section that is only a few feet wide, but once the embankment is broken, the gap will be washed and expanded by the current indefinitely, until it is finally impossible to remedy.

Tu Lichun grabbed Li Ze's reins without hesitation, and ran upstream along the embankment with Li Ze, he wanted to take Li Ze to a safe high ground immediately to ensure that nothing happened to Li Ze.

Li Ze saw Sun Lei, who was standing on the embankment with a pale face, with words in his mouth. I couldn't help but sigh in my heart, Sun Lei still has no experience as an official after all, and in a disaster like this, the first time it should have been evacuated from the people in the city. Like Wuyi's Hou Zhen, when the heavy rain was pouring down, he immediately ran to see those dangerous areas, confirmed that there would be no accident on the embankment, and then returned to the city. But even so, some low-lying villages were still under the organization of the Yixing Society, and temporarily took refuge with relatives and friends or moved to the high ground for refuge.

Experience is something that's really important sometimes. And as a magistrate, sometimes I would rather do more useless work and spend more money to make sure that there are no major disasters. And Sun Lei is obviously not up to par at this point, he is still using the thinking of a businessman to be an official.

Merchants are accustomed to taking risks in their business, but as a magistrate, it is better not to take any chances, because if something happens, you cannot afford such a responsibility.

Li Ze blamed himself a little, and asked Sun Lei to use the thinking of the big shopkeeper of Yixingtang to be the county commander, or he had strongly encouraged him. This may be useful for Sun Lei to develop the Xindu economy, but in this regard, it is not.

There were exclamations from everyone behind him, and when Li Ze turned around, he saw that the embankment, which had been in danger before, had finally collapsed, and the river water poured into the fields behind the embankment. The soldiers who were rushing on the embankment, young and strong, were divided into two unreachable parts by this breach.

Yang Kai went up at this time.

When Li Ze saw this scene, he strangled the war horse hard.

Yang Kai had a rope tied around his waist, and in his hand he held a straw bag full of sand and soil, and walked towards the breach without hesitation. Behind him, several young men were holding on to the other end of the rope with pale faces.

On the edge of the breach, Yang Kai shouted: "Members of the Yixing Society, follow me!" ”

After yelling at this sentence, he jumped into the breach with a thud.

The strong current of water immediately rushed him to the side, but relying on the straw bag he was holding in his hand and the rope that suddenly tightened behind him, Yang Kai's thin body actually stood firm after swaying for a while. At this time, the embankment had only been broken through the top layer, and the water had only reached Yang Kai's chest.

Accompanied by Yang Kai's roar, the sound of porphyry and tom was endless, and the backbone leaders of the Yixing Society who followed Yang Kai from Wuyi actually jumped down one after another with straw bags.

On the embankment, there was a brief loss of voice, except for the sound of the roaring river and the sound of wind and rain, the flow of people densely crowded on the embankment was silent.

Then, a scene that shocked Li Ze appeared.

"Yixing Society, come on!" In the crowd, many voices cried out for a long time, and one by one, the men holding straw bags jumped into the gap without hesitation.

Shi Zhuang didn't react for a long time, only until the sound of porphyry tom connecting the falling water sounded, he suddenly realized that he grabbed a coil of rope with one hand, and gave one of the ends to a personal soldier beside him, and he also jumped into the gap, and in the moment of falling into the water, he threw the rope of the other hand out, and on the other side of the gap, an officer quickly grabbed the rope and pulled it hard.

Shi Zhuang, who fell into the water, staggered, but fortunately, there were already a lot of people at the gap at this time, and the speed of the water flow was greatly slowed down, so that he could barely stand firm, and then several arms around him stretched out and grabbed him.

More people jumped, many were washed into the embankment by the current, and a few even lost their footing and were swept out of the embankment, but they were afraid that they would not survive.

The embankment seemed to come alive for a moment.

Countless straw bags were filled into the gaps.

The roaring river finally flinched in the face of the unafraid of death, and when the last few straw bags fell up and blocked the last breach, the river could only roar unwillingly, and after stirring up a large spray in vain, it wilted down the river.

The wall of straw bags was still very thin, but behind the straw bags there was another wall made of people.

More bags and stones were thrown, and the embankment, which had just been in danger, miraculously turned around.

Tu Lichun was pleasantly surprised.

Hou Fangyu and the others were even more dumbfounded.

Li Ze turned over and dismounted, looked at Hou Fangyu and the others, and said meaningfully: "See, this is the person from my Yixing Society." Hou Fangyu, if you want to become a member of Yixing Society, you still need to work hard! ”

Hou Fangyu lowered his head in shame.

Because just now, when Tu Lichun was holding Li Ze's horse and leaving, only these Hao clan disciples were following Li Ze, and the rest of the dozens of pro-Wei Yi servants were all left behind, and at this moment, they were still in the water.

Yang Kai was dragged out of the water like a dead fish, and when he got ashore and lay on the ground, he opened his mouth wide like a fish out of the water, panting loudly, and his face was extremely frightened.

Li Ze walked up to his side and squatted down.

Seeing Li Ze, Yang Kai struggled to sit up, but was held down by Li Ze, although the ground is muddy now, everyone is also soaked, lying down at the moment, can better let his cadre recover.

Yes, at this moment, Yang Kai was already regarded as a cadre in Li Ze's heart.

The Yixing Society is an important means that Li Ze is preparing to use to infiltrate the local area and grasp power, and Li Ze has put a lot of effort into how to unite people's hearts, and has stayed up a lot of nights to write some rules and regulations, of course, there are also other methods and means.

Of course, what Li Ze did was to copy some of the things he had heard and witnessed in his previous life, and then polish and revise them according to the actual reality. The rules and regulations, the purpose of the founding of the society, and the code of conduct are for everyone to see, and the methods and means are for people like Yang Kai. It seems that Yang Kai is really doing what he does.

Today, Yixing Society is equivalent to performing a selfless image of selflessness for the people in front of the people of Xindu. Not only Yang Kai, but the rest of the Yixing members who jumped into the water first will be engraved in the hearts of Xindu people for a long time.

And at this time, it was also the time when Xindu vigorously developed the grassroots organization of Yixing Society.

The people at the bottom are always the easiest to be moved and the easiest to be agitated. On the contrary, it is the children of a wealthy family like Hou Fangyu, no matter what they do, they will always consider the gains and losses, think about the pros and cons, and then decide how to act. It is the most difficult for such a group of people to change them.

Otherwise, why would some people say that the more you read, the more reactionary it becomes!

Sun Lei also crawled out of the gap wet, but his body was obviously much stronger than Yang Kai, in fact, among the many people who jumped into the water, Yang Kai's body was the thinnest. This guy has been full of joys and sorrows, ups and downs, and has been devastated for more than a year, and it is during this period of time that he has barely gained a little weight.

"Thank you, Brother Yang." Sun Lei couldn't afford it.

If the embankment is broken, the biggest person responsible is, of course, the county magistrate, and this consequence is really difficult to atone for.

Yang Kai lay on the ground and smiled: "They are all brothers of the Yixing Society, this is their duty." ”

Sun Lei nodded heavily. Turning to Li Ze: "Please punish the son." ”

Li Ze shook his head: "Eat a trench, grow wise, and work hard to learn how to be a qualified parent official, and I am the same." You go and get busy, although you have escaped a catastrophe in front of you, but there are still no other dangers, it is still uncertain. The people in the county town should still be evacuated as much as possible. ”

"I'll do it right away." Sun Lei left in a hurry.

"Childe, I'm going to stay in Xindu for a while longer." Yang Kai, who was out of breath, said in a low voice: "At this time, it is the time to let the Yixing Society shine, and it is also the time to let the people see our role. I guess that when this matter is over, our Yixing Society will completely gain a firm foothold in Xindu. ”

Li Ze nodded: "It's just been counted, with you jumping into the water, three died, these three people, to publicize it with great fanfare, and for their families, they must be heavily compensated." ”

"I understand that to let everyone see the courageous dedication of our Yi Hing members, this is a living example for all those who are interested in joining Yi Hing Club. Without this spirit, we will not want it. Yang Kai said seriously: "Childe, I think we have to have a grand joining ceremony, and we must have a special oath to join the company......
