The flood was surging, and the turbid yellow river with countless sediment rushed down from this gap. The sandbags that Li Kuan and the others threw down seemed so insignificant in the endless flow of water, and those big trees began to be impacted by the water at this time, slowly moving in the direction of the flowing water.

"Really?" Li Kuan couldn't help frowning when he saw this situation. It is really difficult to tie down the stakes and fix them in such a big gap, but the embankment without roots is like a sand sculpture made by a child, and it is only a waste of effort in this flood.

"What should I do?" Li Kuan racked his brains, such a thing is really a tricky thing for him, he is not a water conservancy expert, he doesn't know how to control the water, what is blocked is better than sparse, but now this gap must be blocked, if not blocked, then this flood will never end, because the Huai River is still here, its water flow is enough to make this area forever become a Ze country, become a forbidden area for the people, if not blocked, then this will become the second Dongting Lake, water thieves, disaster party.

So this is the most difficult thing to do, no matter what the cost, Li Kuan has to plug this gap of several zhang wide, which is the biggest goal of his coming this time.

"But what can be done?" Li Kuan looked at the Yingzhou garrison beside him.

"Xia Guan has only met twice, how can he come up with any way!" Come on, this guy is here to sue Li Kuan: 'Lord Wang, you are wrong, this is not what you did. But when you ask him what to do, he says: 'I don't know that, but you're wrong!' 'These sub-officials. It's really overwhelming.

"Since it can't be done, then do as the king does. It's really better to say it than to watch it here. At least somewhat! Li Kuan looked at the soldier who was still carrying sandbags, said, and then joined in, carrying two bags of sand by himself.

Under Li Kuan's leadership, all the soldiers used all their strength, they gritted their teeth, held their waists, and resisted the sandbags weighing one or two hundred catties on their shoulders, and their steps were heavy. Each step had to make deep footprints on the ground, and then the people behind followed the footprints of the people in front of them, and so on and forth, one by one the sacks of sand were carried by them to the embankment, and they threw them into the river, even if it was just a splash of muddy waves, even if they could not see the results of their efforts, they were still so busy without stopping.

They were afraid of idleness, because behind them was a vast land. In this land live their fathers and villagers, and live relatives who have the same blood as them. As long as they are idle, they will hear the cry of life in the wind, and they will think of their helpless eyes in this rolling flood.

Those who have not seen the flood with their own eyes cannot imagine the violence of the seemingly slow-flowing river after the levation burst. Those who have not seen the flood destroy the lives of miè will not understand the unspeakable tragedy of watching their loved ones go with the waves in the river. Struggling in that whirlpool, he stretched out his hand to pull him by himself. But the helplessness of being powerless.

These soldiers have seen and heard a lot along the way. The crying, the shouting, the hoarse sound made it difficult for them to toss and turn all night and make it difficult to sleep, as long as they closed their eyes, they would think of those figures who were shouting on the roofs of houses in the water, on the treetops, as long as they closed their eyes, they would hear the terrible cry in their ears They came along the way, and there were many people, but there were many more who were not touched by them, those people were still waiting for rescue, and they were still hoping that the court would not abandon them.

But those of them who were soldiers knew that the affected area this time was too big, and the imperial court really couldn't save them all, just in this Huaihe River Basin, this river that flows slowly every year broke its embankment in three places in this early summer, and Li Kuan's place is just one of them, how can the imperial court have so much energy to save in this situation?

"Look, those are the sandbags we threw down, they weren't washed away!" An excited voice shouted.

Everyone gathered around, looking at the gap in front of them that kept flowing out of the river, and sure enough, they saw gray bags one by one, blocked by trees one by one, and then deposited together, which was revealed at this time.

With hope, everyone felt the strength of endless joy, their steps became relaxed again, they had not seen the slightest hope for so long before, everyone felt very depressed in their hearts, but now that they saw where the hope was, their hearts were high, and under the psychological effect, all of them felt much more relaxed, so bags of sand fell like hail towards this section of the river. The sandbags came out of the water, and gradually, the soldiers felt the sound of the river rumbling in their ears become quieter, this is the current of the water.

"The flow of the river is small, and we are going to succeed!" The soldiers shouted loudly, more excited than fighting a big victory on the battlefield, killing foreign enemies and treating civilians are two completely different feelings, this Li Kuan knows, and these soldiers also know.

"Work hard, try to fill this place, and then we can search for the surviving people!" Li Kuan cheered on the soldiers. He was not idle in his hands, running back and forth with great strides, carrying two sandbags with him every time he went back and forth, and Li Kuan's efficiency was twice as high as that of other soldiers.

"No!" The soldiers chanted loudly, and with hope, their enthusiasm exploded.

"For Datang! ......" the soldiers shouted, and then again and again between the embankment and the distant mountainside of Funiu Mountain, from where sandbags had to be carried over, and this road was a full two miles, that is, about a thousand meters. With such a length, carrying more than 100 pounds of sandbags back and forth again and again is really tiring. Many soldiers carried sandbags and staggered heavily, but they didn't have the slightest intention of stopping, because they knew that what they were doing now was saving the lives of those people, and it was a meritorious thing that contributed to the entire Tang Dynasty, and that was enough.

Of course, their consciousness is not so high, but they interpret this so-called spirit of support from all sides from their own perspective, they are not thinking about anything else, but they have helped the people here today, so when their hometown needs help in the future, the people there will also help themselves! In this era that has not yet become flashy and realistic, everyone has the most basic idea of gratitude and gratitude, which is something that is difficult to find in the world of high-rise buildings in the future.

The levees were getting higher and higher, and the sand was carried up by the soldiers on their shoulders, and they dragged it up with great perseverance, and then this temporary was cast, and the river grew higher and higher, and the flood peak had not yet passed, and within an hour or two after the heavy rain had stopped, it was the time when the water flowed at its heaviest, and that time was the most crisis. Li Kuan didn't know this, because he had never experienced floods, even if that year when the entire Great Heavenly Empire was flooded, because he was on the roof of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, he only knew it from the news, and then hurriedly made a phone call home.

The Yingzhou garrison didn't know, because the Huai River burst the embankment he saw the first two times was not in the flood, but when the imperial court governed the Huai River, but the first two times were in a small area of repair, and the fundamental problem of the Huai River embankment was not completely solved, so this time in the heavy rain, the Huai River will burst the embankment. So he didn't know that the flood peak hadn't actually arrived yet, and the river embankment that seemed to have stabilized its position now was just an illusion, and the river embankment would never dare to be said to be stable without experiencing the most ferocious flood peak.

Sure enough, the water level rose higher and higher, and this section of the embankment, which was piled up with sandbags on its back, began to seep water out of the riverbed, and streams of fine water flowed out along the gaps between the sandbags, forming strips of mud.

"Your Highness, look!" A wolf warrior saw a stream of mud rushing out of the river embankment, and immediately shouted loudly, because he was not very far away from Li Kuan, so he reminded Li Kuandao.

"What?" Li Kuan looked in the direction the soldier was pointing, and the simple embankment over there was like a wall at this time, blocking the raging water of the Huai River. But now the wall seemed to be collapsing, and streams of muddy mud flowed out along the cracks in the wall, converging into a small river of mud under the corners.

"Your Highness, look at those trees!" Another soldier screamed, and suddenly the sight in Li Kuan's eyes also made his eyes shrink, where the big trees that they threw down to block the sandbags were squeezing out little by little at this time, what is the situation?

"The river embankment is going to collapse, this method will not work!" Such a thought flashed through Li Kuan's mind, but in the blink of an eye, he had a firm belief: this embankment must be saved, because behind him, it was originally a vast land of Zeguo, but at this time, the water level was slowly falling, and now the canopies of those trees on the surface could be seen, you must know that there was nothing to see before, and the current water level has been lowered by at least half a meter compared to before.

This is not the reason why Li Kuan insisted, but there is another more terrifying conjecture in his mind: the tree is exposed, so where are the people who were originally in the crown and on the roof at this time? They must have all come down! When Li Kuan thought of this, he suddenly felt bad, because in this way, this second embankment burst would wipe out all the lucky people who had survived before! This is what Li Kuan doesn't want to see!

"Fight!" Li Kuan was ruthless, and then pulled out the horizontal knife on his waist in a hurry: "Everyone come with me!" "Horizontal knife skirt uàn Sakura clan recognizes mirage and shoots the pro-fishy sieve yo lu dusk paralysis agent Si ァ (to be continued......)
