Genius remembers in a second [Aishang Novel Network biquge.info] to provide you with wonderful novels to read.

A rope, connected by a dozen people, arm in arm, seemed to see a solid wall, surging turbidity, all blocked out.

Thousands of people on the embankment are all focused on one person at the moment. More and more people fell to their knees, ignoring the muddy water under them, and brushed a large area together.

"Grandpa Guo, we will listen to you in this life!"

With heavy kowtows, countless young people climbed up, as if they were not dying, carrying sand and gravel towards the gap.

At this time, Pan Yueshan also hurriedly ordered: "Hurry, get off the wooden fence!" ”

As he spoke, more than a dozen soldiers ran over with the tied wooden fences, and everyone worked together to place the wooden fences in the gap, and then swung their sledgehammers and smashed the wooden fences deep into the embankment. smashed into three wooden fences in a row, and with the stake foot, the soldiers and civilians quickly filled the gaps with sand and gravel.

When the sandbags were not enough, they used the basin and their hands to carry the stones one by one and threw them into the turbidity current.

"No matter how dare you flood, I'm not afraid of you!"

"Defeat you, beat you!"

The soldiers and civilians regarded the turbulent Yellow River as the biggest enemy, desperately threw out all the weapons in their hands, gritted their teeth, and cursed viciously this river that brought countless disasters to everyone.

Gu Zhenhua and the soldiers had been soaked in the water for half an hour, and the cold river water quickly took away the body, and Gu Zhenhua only felt like a leaf, floating back and forth in the water.

In fact, he also knew that it was a bit reckless to do this, and he couldn't make a big wave come over. There is no grand hegemony anymore, but Gu Zhenhua is stubborn. Or simply leave it alone, once decided. You have to fight to the end, give up halfway, what kind of man is that!

Of course, he is not afraid to say that he is acting, what about acting, if he can act for a lifetime, what is the difference between truth and falsehood!

"Hold on, don't let go!"

Gu Zhenhua clasped the hands of the soldiers beside him. The others also resisted to the death, like an impregnable wall. No matter how rough the wind and waves are, everyone is like a reef on the shore. Motionless, towering!

"Grandpa Guo, rest assured, we can all hold it."

"Yes, hold on. We are not afraid of the Yellow River. If you meet a Tartar in the future, I see which of you dares to be a bad seed! Gu Zhenhua laughed loudly.

"Grandpa Guo, follow you, we will never be a bad seed!"

"Don't be a bad seed!"

The people on the embankment also shouted, and more and more sand and gravel were delivered, and the big guy finally blocked the gap despite the bleeding from his shoulders, the scars on his hands and feet, and the bloody sand and gravel.

"Grandpa Guo. Alright, come up quickly. ”

With the help of soldiers on the shore. One soldier after another climbed up from the turbid current, and when they reached the embankment, they collapsed to the ground, trembling, and exhausted their strength.

Suddenly, when a soldier was climbing up, his strength had been exhausted, and as soon as his hand was released, he suddenly fell into the boiling river.

Gu Zhenhua, who was still in the water, hurriedly stretched out his hand, but a big wave came, and when the wave passed, the soldier had already floated more than ten meters away, waved his arm a few times, and saw that he was sinking into the water quickly, and he couldn't see his head anymore.

"Hey! What are you doing in a daze, go downstream to save people! ”

Gu Zhenhua shouted loudly, and the soldiers on the embankment also hurriedly ran over, Gu Zhenhua climbed the rope and finally climbed onto the shore, like a chicken in soup, sitting on the shore with a butt, panting.

Li Xu beside him bared his teeth even more, and his facial features twitched.

"Second brother, your expression is good!"

"What kind of jokes, don't you see me cramping?"

After a long time, Li Xu changed, his head was full of white sweat, and he and Gu Zhenhua rested back to back. Li Xu said in an undetectable voice: "My grandfather, in the future, what you mean is done, but don't fight so hard, the son of a daughter can't sit down." ”

Gu Zhenhua also smiled bitterly: "You and I are willing to fight, for so many years, the common people have been afraid of being officials, if you don't show a sincere heart, how can you convince people?" ”

While he was talking, a burst of aroma wafted from afar, and many women carried hats and wooden barrels of food boxes and brought food. The soldiers did not dare to be careless, many people grabbed steamed buns and sent them into their stomachs with the rainwater, and they ate while patrolling the embankment to eliminate danger.

I didn't swallow a mouthful of steamed buns, and suddenly there was a leak over there, and I was about to rush up, and I didn't know when to eat the next bite of rice, everyone was covered in mud, and the wolf was unbearable.

But among these women who delivered food, tears welled up in the corners of their eyes. The rhyme of the piano is like this, the pearl-like tears are rolling all over the cheeks.

She only remembers that when she was eight years old, her family was flooded, her parents were washed away, she survived and was sent to the Qinhuai River by traffickers.

How many princes and grandsons bowed down in front of her, how many scholars and talented people wrote love poems and gave gifts to her, even the famous four sons of the Fushe Society were no exception.

The prosperity will eventually pass, Donglin will be destroyed, the restoration society will not exist, and she will also be redeemed by An ** and sent to the front line, so that she can marry those vulgar soldiers.

Qin Yun's heart was ten thousand unhappy, what kind of character she was, how could this ugly and rude reckless man be worthy of her. Accustomed to enjoying fine clothes and food, how can you live a hard life, not to mention who knows when, the soldiers will die on the battlefield, do you want to be outnumbered!

Qin Yun has secretly hidden a pair of scissors by her side, and the moment she gets married, she will commit suicide, and she will never be nostalgic for a boring life.

But now, she suddenly felt how shallow she was, poetry and songs couldn't withstand the surging river, and brocade clothes and jade food couldn't compare to a solid chest. If there were such soldiers back then, struggling to relieve the disaster, maybe their parents would still be around, and the family would enjoy the joy of family, so why bother to make a living by laughing.

In the blink of an eye, these vulgar warriors are much more cute, they are stable and solid, and if they can work hard for one thing, then they can really protect their wives, compared to the noble sons of the morning and evening, maybe this is the true destination of life.

Thinking of this, Qin Yun suddenly picked up the food box in his hand, regardless of the muddy water on the ground, and delivered the food to one soldier after another. Looking at their gobbling up, Qin Yun suddenly felt at ease!

"Grandpa Guo, the rain is a lot lighter, but there is too much water upstream, looking at this situation, the water is going to rise!" Pan Yueshan couldn't help but sigh.

"How's the digging over there?"

"Grandpa Guoguo, I have already dug about two meters, and the soldiers and the common people are working hard together, and the progress is much faster than I thought. It's just that the further down I dig, the more difficult it becomes, and I'm still worried that I won't be able to finish it on time. ”

"It's useless to worry, you have to defend the embankment in life and death, is the sandbag enough for anything now?"

Pan Yueshan shook his head: "Grandpa Guo, the treasury of Xuzhou has been empty all these years, and there are no disaster relief materials prepared at all, and the ones we have temporarily rushed to make are almost consumed, I really have no bottom in my heart!" ”

"Whether you have the bottom or not, you have to support me, we can't give up halfway."

As he spoke, countless more people rushed over, seemingly as many as thousands, led by twenty or thirty old gentry, and some even had to rely on support to rush over tremblingly. Behind them were countless people, carrying door and window frames, pushing water tanks with carts, and even bringing quilts from their homes.

The guards led everyone in front of Gu Zhenhua, and the old gentry all fell to the ground, crying bitterly.

"Grandpa Guo, we have all heard that in order to save the embankment, you personally jumped into the river, we have never seen a good official like you in our lives, we represent the Xuzhou fathers, kowtow to you!"

As he spoke, the old men knelt on the ground and kept thanking each other.

Gu Zhenhua hurriedly came over to help, and said: "For the benefit of the official for one party, since Benjue is in Xuzhou, you must protect everyone's safety, you are all highly respected, don't kneel in the muddy water and hurt your body, that's not good." ”

"It's okay, Grandpa Guo, to be honest, when you ran Tuntian, the old man still scolded you behind your back, and I blamed the old man for being confused, and I don't know your hard work. Don't worry, from now on, as long as Ji Guogong's orders, none of us dare not listen! ”

"That's right, the big guy can distinguish the good people, and An ** is our disciple soldier, and the big guy has to do his part."

The old gentry in the lead even said: "Listen, everyone, prepare everything in your hands, put sand on it, and strengthen the embankment!" ”

After receiving the order, these civilians all mobilized and, together with the soldiers, used the door and window frames as stakes and drove them into the muddy water. The tank was loaded with sand and gravel and also sank underwater. The quilts were used as sandbags, and the people removed everything they could use at home.

Truckloads of bricks were sent over, and logs were transported up one by one, and although the Kuishan embankment was full of dangers, it was finally maintained with the efforts of the military and civilians.

After another difficult night, the rain was heavy and on the third day, the rain was intermittent, and the danger on the embankment increased, and three relief soldiers had already been washed away.

The big guys are worried, it seems that it is not enough to rely on the blockage, and their hopes are pinned on the floodway. At this time, Sun Cheng and 6 Yong were fighting with all their might, and the soldiers had been sleepless for two whole days. 6 Yong They all took matters into their own hands, and they used up three shovels alone.

"My lord, it's done!"

The soldier ran over excitedly and shouted loudly.

The embankment between the tributary and Kuishan has been dug up, and the flood can be discharged at any time. Sun Cheng also rushed over at this time, and said with a laugh: "The twenty-mile river channel of the branch water has also been widened, not only that, but the common people have also built a breakwater outside the city wall to prevent the river from pouring into the city. ”

"Okay, great, go and report to Grandpa Guo and prepare for the flood!" After saying this, 6 Yong sat on the ground with his ass and couldn't help but snore! (To be continued......)
