Shi Dakai understood. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

His Majesty told him to delay as much time as possible, so that the breach would be slowly expanded, instead of opening it all at once, and the entire Yellow River would pour down.

Obviously, this will reduce the pressure downstream. In this way, His Majesty does not have absolute confidence in his own and Wei Yuan's governance strategy.

Shi Dakai suddenly felt that the burden on his shoulders was heavy and had to be supported.

After Feng Yunshan waited for Shi Da to leave, his heart was like an ant crawling over, he actually wanted to go to the breach to take a look, but he didn't see the water cup of the Yellow River break collected in the old Yellow River road before the Song Dynasty, he was uneasy. But at the same time, he knew very well that he shouldn't go. Not only should he not go to the breach, he should not come to the Yellow River.

Now he is not a holy king, but the emperor of this country, the lord of a country, should preside over the overall situation in the holy capital, and remotely control the disaster relief area there, which is not only safe, but also more effective in mobilizing personnel and materials to come here to relieve the disaster. But he still came, maybe his mentality has not yet adapted to the change of being an emperor as a venerable, so he still quietly came to the side of the Yellow River break, wanting to see the break, but because of Liu Shengbang's resolute resistance, he had to give up and send Shi Dakai forward.

Shi Dakai and more than 30,000 other people set off quickly, and before they approached the break of the copper tile compartment, they heard the rumbling sound of water, which shook the sky like thunder. Shi Dakai walked along the embankment and saw that the Yellow River embankment in front of him had broken a hole of about 20 zhang, and the surging flood rushed out of the embankment like a beast and discharged directly into the embankment.

Outside the embankment, there was already an ocean, and the huge flood force completely washed away a row of small mounds under the embankment, which were originally small forests, leaving only a few large trees soaked in water to rise and fall in the whirlpool corners of the flood.

"Qin sent Wei Yuan, Lord Wei here!" Wei Yuan didn't know when he had come to the breaking point, and when he heard that Shi Da was coming, he hurriedly came to see him.

Shi Dakai first saluted Wei Yuan according to the rules, after all, he represented Feng Yunshan, and then after Wei Yuan saw him as a righteous king as a courtier, Shi Dakai asked: "Lord Wei, the Yellow River breaks, I don't know what the way back is?" Did the flood water enter the pre-excavated channel? ”

"King Yi, the flood is too big, this embankment will collapse a lot, I wanted the people to erect wooden stakes to block the breach, but they couldn't stand at all, and they were swept away by the flood, and even the people were washed away, and they didn't know whether they were alive or dead." Wei Yuan sighed, did not answer Shi Dakai's question directly, and talked about the situation in detail: "I have already sent someone to check it later, and when it was just broken, the flood was much less than this, and it was still barely able to drain to the northeast in the pre-excavated Yellow River, but a small amount of flood water had already overflowed the river." The amount of flood water was too large, and it flowed down, and for a while, the river channel was difficult to accommodate. Alas, I can't imagine that Wei has calculated for a few days, and it is still small. The one-mile-wide river channel was still difficult to hold the flood. Wei was worried that the embankment would overflow, so he had already sent someone to check it again. ”

Shi Dakai nodded, he also knew that this flood was too big, the further back, the bigger the breach of the embankment, the more the flood would be discharged, and at that time, I was afraid that although the back road had excavated the flood channel, it would still be difficult to fully support such a large amount of floodwater.

Shi Dakai's fears were soon fulfilled. I saw two fast horses galloping in the light rain and reporting to Wei Yuan: "Report, Lord Qincha, the newly excavated river in Dongming is that the river section has been flooded and has begun to spread out of the embankment. ”

"What? The river channel is excavated to be a few miles wide, two or three zhang deep, how can such a large river channel still overflow? Wei Yuan asked anxiously.

"Lord Chincha, it's because the back road is blocked! Dongming is close to the border of Heze County, and there are many wooden piles left over from construction, baskets containing sediment, tents at the construction site and many other sundries at the junction of the two counties have not been cleaned up. ”

"Bastard! These bastards, when they passed by there the day before yesterday, they were asked to clean up quickly, but they still didn't move! Wei Yuan said angrily: "Order to go down, let the person in charge of that section of the river jump into the river, and find a way to dredge it."

Wei Yuan asked the messenger to give the order, and he and Shi Dakai immediately led more than 10,000 soldiers to block the river.

The section of the Yellow River ancient road excavated in Xiangzikou Town, Dongming County. The flood was rough and crashing on the shore, and they wanted to break out of the embankment, but the strong embankment on the shore stood still.

When Shi Dakai and Wei Yuan arrived, there was a cry by the river.

The section of the river silted up between Dongming and Heze County is the section of the river adjacent to Xiangzikou Township.

Today, the debris has been washed away by the floodwaters. The blocked river channel was dredged, and the flood that was originally blocked in this section of the river was quickly discharged, but at the same time, more than 30 people from Xiangzikou Town were washed away.

It turned out that the back of the Xiangzikou section of the river was blocked, and the river rose rapidly, overflowing the embankment, but fortunately, the embankment of this section was built firmly, half a zhang above the ground, so that the river did not cause the river to flow into the nearby village of Xiangzikouji. However, with the rapid rise of the river, sooner or later it will overflow out of the embankment, in a hurry, the people of Xiangzikou Town, under the leadership of the police division of the town's police station, hundreds of people rushed into the downstream to block the river section, and the water pulled out the wooden piles by the river, as a result, really pulled out a few wooden piles that were already crumbling, together with baskets and other sundries, were washed away by the flood, and the people who pulled the wooden piles were also washed away more than 30 people and were swallowed up by the flood.

Among them, there is a police division of the Xiangzikou Town Police Station.

Although the people in the Xiangzikou area knew that their families and belongings had been moved elsewhere and would not be flooded, they still couldn't bear to watch their hometowns and houses being washed away by the floods. Now, the police division led a group of villagers to bravely jump into the flood, in order to dredge the blockage, in order to save their hometown, was swept away by the flood, how can they not be sad and cry?

Li Qian also stood in the crowd in despair, his eyes red and swollen. Their foreman, police officer Li Youcai, and his neighbor, Li Dazhuang, were swept away by the floods.

When Shi Dakai and Wei Yuan heard this, their eyes also turned red. What a simple people, and the leading police teacher, in order to eliminate the danger, gave their lives.

However, now is not the time to think about this, the most important thing at the moment is to provide disaster relief and ensure that the flood water flows smoothly into the Daqing River in the excavated river and flows safely into the sea. As for this police teacher, it is still the thirty or so people, and he has already written it down, and he must not let them die in vain, and he must posthumously give them the reward they deserve.

Shi Dakai suddenly asked, "Lord Qincha, why isn't Shandong Governor Chong'en here?" ”

"King Yi, Lord Chong'en Chong has arranged arrangements in Shandong, channeled the people to move away, and arranged relief for the victims, if there is no him, how can I leave Shandong with peace of mind?" Wei Yuan replied: "It's just that he thinks that he is only in charge of Shandong, and if he comes here, he will cross the line, so he didn't come here." ”

Shi Dakai was still a little dissatisfied with this full flag man, and he snorted and stopped talking.

From the beginning of the same day, Shi Dakai and Wei Yuan prepared to investigate the surrounding areas of many prefectures and counties in the lower reaches of the Yellow River. As soon as he entered the territory of Heze, he came to the blocked section of the river, and saw Chong'en leading several officials to meet him.

"Humble to the righteous king and the king!" After making a big bow, Chong'en respectfully stepped forward to see.

"Chong'en, have all the people evacuated in the areas of Shandong that are ready to flow through the flood? How is the river cleaned? Will the flood pass through? As soon as he saw Chong'en, Shi Dakai asked with a sneer, for this subordinate who was a Manchu bannerman, Shi Dakai was obviously a little hostile.

"King Yuyi, Chong'en arranged for his subordinates to inspect the river section in Shandong a few days ago, and just now I received a report from the messenger that the flood discharge of the river section excavated in Shandong is generally acceptable, and only a small section of flood water overflows the river embankment and discharges into the village. The rest of the excavated river sections were well integrated into the flood and eventually sent into the Daqing River through the upper reaches of the Wei River and the Zhaowang River. ”
