No. 407 Excavation of the Yellow River embankment3

Therefore, in the end, the responsibility for the Yellow River embankment will definitely fall on the heads of the guards of the Yellow River embankment.

It is not a new thing to execute this relative of the Han family and his subordinates.

Even the small school of the Han family did not dare to report this matter to the Han family. When he learned that the embankment of the Yellow River he was guarding had really broken the embankment, he was completely dead. Everyone else understood that the towering tree of the Han family, which he had relied on all along, had become a talisman as soon as this incident happened.

Once they fall into the hands of the Han family, these guys, who have always eaten people and don't spit out bones, will definitely throw themselves out and carry this swarthy black cauldron. Not only himself, but also all his family members must have ended up extremely miserable. In the face of interests, the Han family will definitely not care about their relatives within eight poles. Thinking of this, this extremely wise little colonel suddenly felt a big shudder.

The little colonel ran home as soon as possible, threw away all his things, and fled from Hebei on the Cai family's sea boat, carrying only his family and some previous gold and silver. is still there, over the years, he has relied on his status as a relative of the Han family, and he has not drunk the blood of his subordinates, and he has looted a lot of wealth. In the end, he came to Qiongzhou and went incognito.

This time, the surging Yellow River, the tumbling flood peak, and the precarious Yellow River embankment suddenly broke the embankment at the boundary of Xiangzhou, which surprised everyone's expectations.

How serious the loss of the Han family is this time, anyone who has seen with their own eyes the tragic situation in Xiangzhou after the embankment bursts is deeply touched.

However, there are still some people who are interested in discovering a strange thing from this, this time the embankment burst happened so suddenly, and the scope of the impact was so wide, not only Xiangzhou, but also the surrounding areas of Xiangzhou were also damaged to varying degrees. However, some of these people did not see the tragic situation of floating corpses all over the field after the previous floods broke the levees. It's incredible.

The Han family of Xiangzhou and the Qin cha sent by Zhao Xu after hearing the news all discovered this matter, but the Xiang army guarding that section of the embankment actually ran away from top to bottom, and the Xiang army of the Great Song Dynasty was all uncertain and drifting, they were all wandering ghosts who were homeless and were taken in by the local government after fleeing from other parts of Hebei, and after they fled, they couldn't find any trace at all.

The only guy with a name and surname is actually a relative of the Han family, but this relative actually left the mansion in Xiangzhou City and the fields outside the city, and the family disappeared.

This is Xiangzhou City, and it is not clear when this kid of the Han family took away his family and left Xiangzhou.

After investigating the situation in Xiangzhou, this Qincha returned to Xiangzhou City, said a few polite words to the principal of the Han family, and hurried back to Beijing to reply to the decree. The reason why he left in a hurry was because he understood one thing, although the Yellow River embankment opened a hole in Xiangzhou this time, the result seemed to be very serious. In fact, in the final analysis, it has nothing to do with the imperial court.

Why?

Because, the people of the entire Hebei Zhulu know that all the fields in Xiangzhou are the property of the Han family, and the imperial court collects less than a share of the taxes from them, and they have to provide food for the Han family to raise those Xiang soldiers to guard Xiangzhou City and the Yellow River embankment for them.

If, this time, the Yellow River bursts its banks and too many people die, no matter how stretched the imperial court is, it will find a way to come up with food to help the victims. However, things came to this place.

After the levee broke, there was no wilderness full of floating corpses outside the entire city of Xiangzhou, nor did I hear that a large number of refugees had gathered outside the surrounding state capitals and counties. It can be said that this time, the Han family not only lost this season's grain income, but also lost the loan sharks owed by the fleeing victims.

Because, this Qin Cha also thought of the terrible consequences that the other Han family might not have thought of.

Regardless of how these tenants of the Han family escaped from the disaster area before the levee burst this time, they escaped this catastrophe. These tenants probably knew in their hearts that if they returned to Xiangzhou after the disaster, the Han family would definitely pass on the loss to them.

So, the result was already doomed. All of these tenants who have fled will definitely not return to Xiangzhou and work as cattle and horses for the Han family again. As long as they find a way to escape the Yellow River or Taihang Mountain, the Han family will not be able to control them.

In fact, there are even more terrible things, which neither this Qincha nor the Han family expected.

Because of the immigration plan secretly implemented by Cai Dao and the Seven Color Collar Organization, the number of people at the bottom of the entire Hebei Zhulu is now insufficient. If it weren't for the ploughing cattle that were exchanged for liquor from Liao, the cultivated land in Zhulu in Hebei would not have been able to be sown at all this year.

The Han family in Xiangzhou is now less than tens of thousands of tenants all of a sudden,

What about the coming year?

The places affected by this flood are only the banks of the Yellow River and the Huai River. What's more, the Gyeonggi area, Jingxi Road, and Huaihe East and West Road are much richer than Hebei Zhulu, and even if the people affected by the disaster here are homeless, they are not willing to go to Hebei to seek a living on Jinghu North Road.

There is not only the danger of military disasters, but also the Xiangzhou soil emperor like the Han family. It's certainly not the first place for disaster victims.

Moreover, after the toss of the last years of Yuanfeng and Yuanyou in the past few years, the number of farmers in Zhulu in Hebei is close to the exhaustion point.

Speaking of which, this is the fundamental reason why Cai Dao was ruthless and opened the Yellow River embankment in Xiangzhou.

Because, Cai Dao wants to take advantage of this turmoil to drive the entire Xiangzhou Han family out of Hebei.

……

After completing this important matter, Cai Dao left the remaining aftermath matters and the question of the fate of the victims to the Seven Colors Collar and Cai Lanling to solve.

Whether these tenants of the Han family are willing to settle on Yizhou Island, or are they willing to cross the Taihang Mountain and settle down on Hedong Road or Hezhong Mansion, Cai Dao did not force it, and everything was up to them.

However, Cai Dao didn't say anything about it. These former tenants of the Han family all know that they will never be able to go back to their hometown, Xiangzhou, and even Hebei Zhulu.

The power of the Xiangzhou Han family is too great. Even in the Yongqiu Han family, Han Yi gave birth to eight sons who were very promising, but they couldn't compare to Han Qi's remaining sons who were not angry.

The two canonization merits have made the Xiangzhou Han family sit firmly on the throne of the first Wenchen family of the Great Song Dynasty.

At present, no one can shake the status of the Han family.

……

As soon as the matter in Hebei was over, Cai Dao himself took Cai Bucket and Cai Ban and hurried back to the Baiyun Temple of Xuehua Mountain.

This time, they couldn't get on the boat, and the rain didn't stop for a moment. The Yellow River was rough, and it was impossible to sail at this time, so they could only sit in a small carriage and sway back all the way.
