Chapter 746: Turning Danger into Safety

At the same time that Liu Yi raised his head to the sky, Tian Yu, who was next to the embankment of the Yellow River at this time, was also doing the same action, but Liu Yi's eyes were in front of the night sky with stars and moon, and Tian Yu's line of sight was an uninterrupted waterline and thick clouds that could only be seen clearly with the help of the light of lightning.

Around Tian Yu, tens of thousands of soldiers and civilians are still doing reinforcement work on the embankment for more than ten miles, beside the surging river is countless black shadows are tirelessly coming and going, they will pile up sandbags and stones on the embankment and its weak points, obviously so many soldiers and civilians participate in the rescue, the clothes are not enough, although it is the middle of summer in July, it is still extremely cold after being wet between the storms and rains!

Now on the embankment only by the clothes can make a distinction between personnel, generally speaking, those who wear clothes are migrant workers, and those who expose themselves to the rain are mostly from Beiping, Liaodong soldiers of the army, treating the people well has long become the fine tradition and practice of the Yan army, that is, these people under Tian Yu are the objects that should be taken care of in the eyes of the soldiers and soldiers! Even though their physique is much stronger than that of the common people, they still can't compare with the regular army!

This is the first time that the main force of the Yan Army has participated in such a large-scale disaster relief operation, although they have no experience in this area before to strengthen their physical fitness, good teamwork and strict military discipline make them quickly adapt to the transformation of roles, but their tacit understanding and skillful appearance are not much better than those experienced people, and they will always appear in the most dangerous places! In this rescue, Tai Shici and Gao Shun Juyi's tone is very consistent, although it is not a battle array, it must be treated as a battle array, this is also the explanation of King Yan himself!

At this time, it was night, dark clouds covered the moonlight, and all Tian Yu could rely on was the roaring bonfires under the cover of tents, which lined up along the banks of the Yellow River, which was a spectacle! Of course, these fires always have something to take into account, the rushing river is also constantly beating the embankment, sometimes the waves can reach two or three people high, standing on the embankment one will not be swept into the river, and at this time into the water, almost ten dead, in the early stage of the rescue, there have been hundreds of people killed in the river, or after Tian Yu came to deal with it!

Now all the people and soldiers are connected by ropes every group of twenty people, which can greatly enhance their safety, and each group also has its own area to be responsible for, according to the bonfire under the tent as an instruction, there will rarely be mistakes, under the command of Tian Yu, Guo Tu, Jian Yong and others to the front line, the people and soldiers have shown great enthusiasm and fighting spirit, they cooperate incomprehensibly on the battlefield, and now they are also general next to the embankment, The water of the rushing river is their formidable opponent this time!

It is under the concerted efforts of all people to ensure that the Yellow River embankment has not been a major leak until this time, such a heavy rain in any previous period is unstoppable, will cause the river to flood, it can be said that to be able to do this point in front of people is already a miracle in the people to deal with the harm of the Yellow River, but for Tian Yu, all this is not enough!

Personally commanded his soldiers and civilians to strengthen the embankment until midnight Tian Yu withdrew from the front line to rest for a while, and the clothes on his body were also handed over by him to a young man beside him, in a camp tent one mile away from the embankment, Tian Yu was naked and exposed his strong muscles and constantly wiped the water droplets on his body, and Jian Yongguo Tu and three or four water conservancy experts who came with Tian Yu were in the tent here, and their faces were obviously tired, especially Jian Guo and the two, they were both scribes after all, Guo Tu is over forty years old, and being able to fight on the front line at this time is enough to show their due diligence and loyalty!

"Guo don't drive, in Jian Zhizhong, with tonight's situation, I am afraid that this rain will not stop, the river is still rising, like this, I will wait for me to have no other way but to destroy the embankment, two of you, please see, this is Qin County, the people here have all evacuated, if the rain does not stop at noon tomorrow, it is necessary to make a decision!" At this time, a cook sent more than ten bowls of steaming ginger soup, everyone drank the cold around the body, and the spirit couldn't help but be lifted, Tian Yu directly wiped the water stains from the corners of his mouth with the back of his hand, and then put the bowl on the map and said to the two!

Jian Yong and Guo Tu glanced at each other when they heard this, the expressions on their faces were extremely heavy, they have worked hard in Jizhou in the past few years, and they are the biggest contributors to the steady development of its resumption of production, and they still have extremely deep feelings for this land. I am afraid that more than a dozen nearby counties will be called Zeguo, this kind of loss makes them absolutely unwilling to see it, but they can't raise any objections to Tian Yu's words! The facts of the past few days have already proved that Ji Ming's ability here is far above the two of them, if he hadn't arrived in time to coordinate and assign the soldiers, I am afraid that the embankment has been broken for a long time at this moment, and now even Tian Yu has done this, which shows that the situation is extremely grim!

"Hey~~ When the interruption continues, but suffer from its chaos, according to what Brother Ji Ming said, if the gap is opened from Qin County, the nearby low-lying counties will be affected by it, Xianhe, you and I have to go here immediately to persuade the people to evacuate, yesterday I have to report quickly, the three generals have sent General Yan Gang's White Horse Battalion to come here to provide temporary camps for tens of thousands of people in more than ten counties, and the emergency grain in the state capital is also being allocated, without further ado, this place will be taken care of by Ji Ming, you and I will quickly go our separate ways." After a while, Guo Tu's face flashed with determination, and he said very firmly, the people at the end of the Han Dynasty valued the land without words, especially after the stability of the past few years, the evacuation work was not as easy to do as imagined, the time for the embankment to break was not long, and the choice of location was also made at noon, at this time it was only six hours away from tomorrow's noon, and if you don't speed up your actions, once the embankment bursts, I don't know how many people will suffer from the catastrophe! At this time, Guo Tu and Jian Yong went to evacuate to take a great risk!

"What Brother Gong Ze said is very true, there is Ji Ming in charge here, you and I are of little use here, it is better to set off as soon as possible, and if you can save one more person, it will be one person." Jian Yong also said categorically, several years of cooperation made him have a deeper understanding of Guo Tu, before he only heard that Yuan Shao's advisers were not in agreement, and when King Yan occupied the Bohai Sea, Xu Yu's inexplicable death was afraid that it was also inseparable from this person, at the beginning, Xianhe, including Zhang Zhao, who had been transferred to Xuzhou at this time, was wary of Guo Tu. But with more and more cooperation between them, they have a deep recognition of Guo Gongze's heart for the public and his ability to govern, and at this time of crisis, this person can still think of the people of Jizhou in his heart regardless of his own safety, which shows how accurate King Yan was when he was a driver in Jizhou!

"The two of them are the heart of the people, and they admire it, even so, I am inconvenient to stop the two of them, but there is one thing that needs to be remembered, no matter whether the people in the county can be evacuated before noon tomorrow, the two must also arrive at the place of this jade mountain, where the terrain is extremely high, even if the river floods out, it will not be a threat to the two, remember, remember!" From the eyes of the two, Tian Yu could see their firmness, thinking that it would not have any effect if he stopped it, besides, King Yan has always loved the people like a son, and he can't do it if he discards these tens of thousands of people.

"Ji Ming rest assured, after I go, I still have to trouble you to contact General Yan Gang and inform you in detail here, even if tens of thousands of people can escape this catastrophe, the subsequent resettlement will be extremely complicated, I hope it will not affect the overall situation of King Yan too much!" Guo Tu bowed his hand slightly, and after speaking, he walked out of the tent with Jian Yong, and galloped away in the heavy rain, seeing that Tian Yu also nodded slightly, in the end, from the former Yuan Shao's account, Guo Tu's vision is still better than Jian Yong's, from this matter he can already see the impact on Liu Yi, but then Tian Yu lowered his head and arranged, now he doesn't have any time to sigh!

Jian Yong and Guo Tu can go to the front line of the rescue in person, but Zhao Yun, who is in danger of Jizhou's safety, can't leave Yecheng lightly, but with a few years of experience as the assassin of Jizhou and the advice of the eldest brother, Zilong is not a simple general at this time, he has a certain understanding of the political affairs in Jizhou, the reason why Yan Gang came is to value the speed of the White Horse Battalion, and there are a lot of materials and medicines needed for disaster relief along with the White Horse Battalion. As a stabbing history, Zhao Yun knows how important it is!

After arranging the required things, the sky has been bright, Tian Yu, who has not slept all night, still cheered up and returned to the embankment, at this time the people here and the two soldiers have made a rotation, this rescue is no different from the battle array, the tired soldiers are difficult to play a role, with the help of Tai Shici and Gao Shun, Tian Yu is not short of manpower, of course, he must also use the rotation method to ensure that the people on the front line can always maintain enough spirit!

Maybe it was the hard work of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians for more than ten days and nights that moved the heavens, and when it was almost noon, when Tian Yu had already held the arrow in his hand, the rain suddenly became smaller, and the sky gradually became clearer, and after half an hour, the light rain also completely stopped, and the scorching sun, which had not appeared for a long time, appeared in the sky! In the middle of summer, people generally do not have any good feelings about the scorching sun, but at this time, his appearance caused the unanimous cheers of hundreds of thousands of soldiers and civilians who stretched for dozens of miles beside the embankment, at that time there was a kind of joy from the heart, but also with a strong pride, but Tian Yu just smiled and sat on the ground!
