Sure enough, as Yang Chen had been saying before, under the effect of the sudden increase in the river sluice and the sudden increase in the flow of the river, coupled with the sudden narrowing of the river course here, the impact of the Yongding River here became extremely large, and in the blink of an eye, it caused the mountains on both sides of the river to collapse rapidly. Pen "Fun" Pavilion www.biquge.info

With the collapse of the mountain, the river that was constantly rushing downstream was abruptly blocked. The power of nature, the power of heaven and earth suddenly appeared at this moment, and after a bang, the turbulent water slapped on the mountain rock that cut itself off, and after a slight pause, he suddenly turned back in a faster and more violent posture than the castration just now, and surged back towards the original path.

At this time, because the river gate was wide open, the river water upstream was still rushing down. This up and down two rivers were violently slammed into one place, and suddenly several feet of waves rose. Before the first wave had fallen, a new wave arose, and then the river rushed towards the dikes on both sides of the river.

"Whoa...... Boom...... "The rushing water slammed against the embankment made of stones and earth, and also against the edge of the river lock, and the hearts of the Ministry of Works' squire Weng Ruda and his officials who saw all this made their faces suddenly extremely pale, and their bodies trembled like the dead leaves of this autumn.

"Something big is going to happen!" This is the first thought that turns in everyone's mind, and these people, who are the ones who open the floodgates, will inevitably bear the blame and punishment from all sides of the government and the opposition! This is the question that comes to their minds subsequently.

But in fact, soon, they didn't have to worry about it anymore, because the water rose rapidly as the river slapped to the left and right and had nowhere to dump. In a matter of moments, the river was a few feet higher than before, and it was rising at an unimaginable speed.

Just when the officials were stunned, the river rushed over and swallowed the officials who were standing not too far from the case. And at the moment when they were swallowed by the water, they had time to let out a scream, and then they remembered that they should have run quickly, but unfortunately this change came too suddenly, and they couldn't react at all. Moreover, even if they think of escape in the first place, they have nowhere to run in the face of the forces of nature.

And after swallowing these officials along with the horses, the river did not stop rising, and after two quarters of an hour, the river located downstream had become higher than the upstream, and the backflow of the river that Yang Chen had been worrying about and stressing about finally came true......

In the city, by the Yongding River, in the command post of Shuntianfu.

Yang Zhen suddenly attacked, and had already held the mansion Yin Sun Yizheng hostage with a knife, and after Sun Yizheng was frightened, he hurriedly shouted: "Yang Zhen, what are you doing?" Don't you hurry up and let go of the official, do you want to rebel? ”

"Master Sun, the situation is urgent, I have no other way but to make this decision, please forgive me." Yang Zhen wrapped one hand around Sun Yizheng's neck, and put a dagger at his throat with the other, but his tone was very calm: "I know that you are afraid of responsibility so you dare not order them to come down." Now I'm threatening you with your life, and if you still won't do what I want, then don't blame me! ”

"You ......" Sun Yi was about to struggle, but when he saw the sharp dagger on his neck that was close to the flesh, he was terrified in his heart, if he was stabbed, maybe his life would be lost here. At the same time, he also heard the deep meaning from Yang Zhen's words, and immediately hesitated.

To be honest, after dealing with Yang Zhen a few times, he still has a lot of trust and respect for this young Jinyi Wei Zhenfu. It's just that what he said this time was too big and too sensational, so Sun Yizheng didn't dare to listen to him and act.

But now, when he had such a reason, Sun Yizheng had to consider obeying Yang Zhen's wishes and letting the people on the embankment come down first. After all, even if there is no such thing as Yang Zhen said, this embankment will not be able to happen for a while, and the court will add a charge of dereliction of duty to itself if it knows about it, and it will never take its own life.

"Lord Sun, it's almost noon......" At this time, an official of Shuntian Mansion strode in, originally wanting to discuss with his own lord whether to prepare food for the brothers on the embankment, but he didn't want to see his own lord being held hostage by a brocade guard as soon as he entered the door, and he was stunned on the spot, his eyes full of disbelief.

"Ah...... Come on...... There are assassins!" The officer then came to his senses and tore open his throat with a scream.

There were already a lot of people waiting for Sun Yizheng to deploy around here, and when they heard this exclamation, everyone hurried over, and then saw Yang Zhen holding Sun Yizheng hostage and appeared in front of the door.

"You...... Who are you? What do you want to do? I can tell you, hurting the court officials is a serious crime, and it is to be killed, so don't mess around! When the officials saw it, they immediately panicked and scolded one after another.

But their intimidation didn't affect Yang Zhen at all, I saw that he looked stunned, and whispered to Sun Yizheng in front of him: "Lord Sun, this is your last chance." I don't think you're going to be responsible for anything afterwards in this situation. ”

"You ......" Sun Yizheng's thoughts turned sharply, and he finally compromised: "Don't panic, this is Yang Zhenfu of Jinyiwei, he won't hurt me." He only came to ask me to do one thing, and you should go and call down all the people on the embankment and tell them to stay away from the embankment. ”

"Huh?" Everyone was stunned when they heard this, but they didn't expect their own boss who was held hostage to issue such an unexpected order, and they all stood on the spot, not knowing how to react.

"Chu Jie, if you don't hurry up and do what the official wants, just say that it was an order from the official, let them withdraw quickly!" Sun Yizheng was also a little anxious at this time, and shouted with a stern expression.

"Yes!" The official named Chu Jie hurriedly agreed, and hurried towards the embankment. Subsequently, the other officials finally accepted such a strange request, and hurriedly followed Chu Jie away. They have always been accustomed to obeying orders, whether it is the same habit or for the safety of their own adults, they dare not disobey Yang Zhen's request.

It was also fortunate that the people guarding the embankment were scattered at random, so when the people from Shuntianfu went to pass on this order, the people from the Five Cities Soldiers and Horses Division and the Jingying also thought that their superiors had given them the order to leave the embankment.

Although they didn't understand why such a strange order had suddenly been given from above, they retreated from the embankment anyway. And such a big movement also quickly alarmed the people in charge of the two yamen, and after learning that all this was the meaning of Shuntianfu, the commander of the Soldiers and Horses Division, and a staff general of the Beijing camp hurried over.

"Sun Fuyin, what do you mean by this, why do you ask people to go down the embankment? But is there something new? Several officials and generals strode over, and before they arrived, the question had already been passed on.

It's just that when they saw the situation here, they were suddenly stunned. They found that Sun Yizheng was actually held hostage, and it was Yang Zhen of the Zhenfu Division who held him hostage.

"Yang Zhenfu, what are you doing here?" The general of the Beijing camp, who had had some contact with him, exclaimed at that time.

"Everyone, please don't panic, listen to me." Yang Zhen saw that they really transferred everyone back according to their own intentions, and his heart was slightly settled, so he immediately let go of Sun Yizheng, and then threw the dagger in his hand: "This is to save people." Because of the quick ......" and seeing that he had let go of his boss, before he could finish speaking, many of the servants of the Shuntian Mansion pounced on him, pressed him with seven hands and feet, and at the same time tied the ropes with the thickness of his arms to his hands and feet.

In the face of such a siege, Yang Zhen did not dodge, and accepted it calmly. But he continued: "Soon, this Yongding River will be poured into the downstream water. If you continue to send people to stay on it, it will inevitably cause a lot of casualties. To be on the safe side, I thought it would be better for everyone to step back. ”

"Ridiculous! Yang Zhen, do you know what you're doing? You are lying to confuse the public, you are ignoring the safety of the entire city of Beijing, and you are also blatantly violating the royal law. Don't think that you can do whatever you want like this if you are the calm of Jinyiwei, today's matter, this official must report to the imperial court and severely punish you! When Xue Liang, the commander of the Terracotta Division, heard that this was the case, he was immediately annoyed.

He was the lowest of them all, and at the same time the least supported. Now that Yang Zhen has actually made such a big deal, not to mention what accidents may be caused by this, even if it is nothing, I am afraid that he will not be able to escape responsibility. This made Xue Liang feel shocked and angry, and he couldn't care about Yang Zhen's identity anymore, so he immediately scolded him.

At this time, Sun Yizheng and the general also showed embarrassment, and now it seems that they can only put all the blame on Yang Zhen, so that their responsibility may be smaller.

Just when everyone was only entangled in the issue of responsibility, an errand officer suddenly pointed to the Yongding River behind everyone, his face changed drastically, and his fingers trembled and said, "My lord, look at it...... The river, the river......"

"Huh?" Everyone felt a thrill in their hearts, and quickly turned around and looked in the direction of the Yongding River, and saw that the river that had been flowing down suddenly gushed back, and the speed of the water was even faster than when it went down......

"How...... How so? Everyone froze.

But Yang Zhen's face was tight: "Everyone hurry back, I'm afraid the momentum of the river's return will be great!" ”

As soon as he finished speaking, the rumbling sound of the water came from downstream, and the waves were pushed by the river, rushing forward at a speed that stunned everyone.

Yongding River is really pouring into Beijing......
