Qian Cheng knew all parts of the Yellow River, while Hou Dingshan was familiar with the power of gunpowder in clay pots, and the two worked together to place twenty pots of gunpowder at the weakest layer of ice. Vertex Says X 23 U OM

"General Hou, are these twenty cans too much? As far as I know, you only used four cans at first. ”

Qian Cheng couldn't help but feel a little distressed after learning that these gunpowder could be so powerful, Xu Cangjie when they arrived in Mengshan City was already the first day of the new year, Chinese New Year's Eve had passed, although the fireworks after that were set off were less, but on Chinese New Year's Eve, nearly half of them were still released, and now the remaining gunpowder is only a few hundred cans, and if twenty cans are used in this weakest place, how should this large Yellow River be done?

"Twenty cans is really not much, although four cans were used before, but they are all near the shore, and this is the middle of the river, although it is the weakest place, but twenty cans are too reluctant, this ice does not know how deep it is frozen, if it is really the entire Yellow River frozen through, if it is not for fear of destroying the embankment, I am afraid that it is not enough to add twenty cans, although the days of freezing are not long, but now people can go, according to Mengshan City's evaluation of the Yellow River freezing, its thickness is afraid that it is not less than two inches."

Qian Cheng couldn't argue, so he had to do what Hou Dingshan said.

Everyone left the center and ordered people to light the fuse, only to hear a roar that shook the sky, and the Yellow River was directly covered with cracks, and then, the cracks continued to expand, and finally directly formed a big hole, and the river below seemed to break free from the shackles and roared.

Seeing the destructive power of this gunpowder with his own eyes really surprised Qian Cheng, however, Qian Cheng's heart can be regarded as settled, although the existing gunpowder in Mengshan City is not enough, but it is still early to leave spring, and there is time to prepare, as long as the ice is destroyed in time before the flood season of the Yellow River, the ice disaster of the Yellow River will be solved.

……

On the other side, the people sent by the imperial court also rushed to the vicinity of Mengshan City, but this way was not the official road from Kyoto to Mengshan City, but along the Yellow River.

When weighing the water of the Yellow River before, it was found that the weight of the water of the Yellow River has been increasing for several months, presumably because there will be waterlogging in the coming year.

At this moment, the water supervisor also heard a shocking explosion, and even the horses under several people were startled.

"What's going on? Heavy snow fell in the sky, frozen the Yellow River, and now it is a thunderbolt on a sunny day. ”

"Lord Hui, listening to this sound, it seems to be coming from the upstream, presumably something big has happened upstream, now, we have arrived in the area of Mengshan City, such a big event has happened, presumably the main generals of Mengshan City have already arrived, we should go directly, by the way, observe the situation in this area, and no longer need to go around the circle of Mengshan City."

"Well, that makes sense."

The water supervisor nodded, took the reins, and took the lead to rush upstream, a few people didn't go far, just saw a group of people around to celebrate, looking at their clothes, it should be the soldiers of Mengshan City, the water supervisor didn't know the reason, so he wanted to come forward to ask.

Before he walked in, the little guy next to the water supervisor saw Hou Dingshan who was surrounded by him, and hurriedly rushed to the adult's side and told his own adult the news.

Lord Shuijian hurriedly stopped, it has been a few days since the emperor's sea fishing document was issued, this north is almost known to everyone, no one dares to take it in, Xu Cangjie and others are fine if they hide in the south, but if they are in the north, there is basically no place to stay, either they have escaped from the north, or they have been arrested.

But until now, Xu Cangjie has not been arrested, and it is also because of the Yellow River that the matter of the Yellow River has shocked the emperor, so that the matter of Xu Cangjie has been temporarily put behind.

Looking at Hou Dingshan's status in the crowd, I am afraid that he has long been hiding in Mengshan City.

"Let's go, go back."

Lord Water Supervisor commanded, quickly lead the horse back, if he fell into the hands of Hou Dingshan, I was afraid that he would not be able to leave.

Qian Cheng naturally also saw these sneaky people, and he also stopped celebrating, and hurriedly snatched the weapons in the hands of the soldiers and chased after them.

Although there are a lot of Jianghu rangers who rush to the north every winter, they also come to the Yellow River area, these people are all riding horses, looking at it from a distance, giving people the first impression of Jianghu rangers, but Qian Cheng's nerves have been too nervous recently, and he knows that he will have to face this situation sooner or later, so he hurriedly chased after him.

The water supervisor and the others watched Qian Cheng chase after him, and they ran faster, and seeing this, Qian Cheng chased even tighter.

Most of the water supervisors and others were literati, and there were only one or two military attachés in charge of security, and if it weren't for the water supervisors who wanted to check the situation of the Yellow River along the road, they would have been sitting in a carriage.

It's just that no matter how fast the water supervisor and the others ran, how could they outpace Qian Cheng's horse, and in an instant, they were chased behind by Qian Cheng.

"A few people in front of me are leaving, what are the intentions of sneaking around my Mengshan City? If you don't speak, don't blame my men for being ruthless. ”

The water supervisor and the others had to stop their horses when they couldn't get out, and the water supervisor had a flash of inspiration in his mind, and said: "The military master spares his life, not that we want to escape, but that we heard that the Yellow River is frozen, and I want to come here to appreciate the great rivers and mountains, and make a good poem. ”

"Oh? Are you a literati? ”

Qian Cheng accepted the weapon, Daqi has always been heavy, Qian Cheng looked at the other party, and saw that the other party was an old man, but he was also polite.

Xu Cangsheng, who had been following Qian Cheng before, didn't interact too much with the officials in Kyoto in order to avoid paying attention, so he didn't recognize the water supervisor.

"Don't dare, miscellaneous poems and refutations, I can't achieve anything after a lifetime of hard work, and I don't dare to hang the word literati on my body."

"The old gentleman is polite."

The water supervisor looked at Qian Cheng politely, he shouldn't embarrass himself, and felt that Qian Cheng might not have deliberately shielded Hou Dingshan, maybe it was really a sea fishing document that had not been passed on to Mengshan City, if he escaped, he directly said in front of the emperor that Mengshan City was harboring the thief, I was afraid that something would be wrong.

"I see that the military master has a good face, and I specially offer a thing to the military master, which can ensure that the general is promoted and makes a fortune."

As he spoke, Lord Shui Jian instructed the little servant to take out the sea fishing documents of Xu Cangjie and Hou Dingshan and present them to Qian Cheng.

Qian Cheng looked at the sea fishing paperwork, his face couldn't help but change, and the water supervisor narrowed, is there really a situation?

Qian Cheng snatched the sea fishing paperwork, pretended to look at it, and said with a smile: "You said that you are a literati, why do you take fame and fortune so seriously?" No wonder I wrote all my life without success. ”

Saying that, Qian Cheng put the sea fishing documents in his arms, and thought to himself: "This is a wake-up call, it seems that we need to pay attention to it, although the people in Mengshan City don't know about the sea fishing documents, but outsiders are different, it is necessary to transfer Xu Cangjie and Hou Dingshan to Daicheng." ”

"The military master has taught me a lesson, and the villain must pay attention."

The water supervisor smiled, but sighed in his heart, it seems that Qian Cheng is really suspected of harboring Hou Dingshan.
