Then, the villagers behind him, row after row, one close to the other, all regarded death as if they were home, and the humanoid dragons were arranged, using flesh and blood to fight the flood!

"Soldiers, hurry up and fill the dirt." Sun Guan's eyes were red, and he shouted in a hoarse voice.

Thousands of soldiers obeyed the order and quickly filled it, and soon shovels of dirt were loaded into sacks, without the need for anyone's orders. The soldiers hurriedly handed the sacks of earth to the soldiers in front, and one by one the soldiers passed them to the soldiers in front, and the last soldiers who received the sacks threw them into the mouth of the embankment in turn.

Half an hour passed, and most of the raging flood was finally stopped.

The severe flood trend has been halted. Man will conquer heaven, and the fierce flood will be slowed down. Everyone had already thrown the sacks full of dirt one by one, but they saw that the sacks full of dirt were stacked up in front of them, and they were as high as a small mountain, and in an instant, a river about two feet high and a hundred meters wide was piled up.

Ma Sheng and Sun Guan all breathed a long sigh of relief. The victorious shouts of the soldiers rang out, and the people became excited.

"Folks, look elsewhere and see if there is a gap."

In this way, although countless soldiers and civilians were tired, their faces were still full of perseverance and information. As long as someone finds out the danger and informs them, there will be countless soldiers jumping into the water, forming a human wall, lined up in a long line to block the water, and countless villagers who volunteered to help spontaneously unite together to help block the human wall, move stones, and load sediment.

In addition, there were some frail civilians who ran to inspect the embankment, always keeping an eye on the situation of the river, and telling the soldiers as soon as there was any danger.

Seeing that the prime of life went to work, countless women, children and children were not idle. All of them took out the bread, steamed buns, and shriveled rice they brought with them to reward the hard-working soldiers and villagers in front.

There are dozens of cauldrons behind him to make stoves, prepare tea, and food to the front line.

Seeing that the people were all mobilized, the Sun Guan brothers and Ma Sheng were both moved and happy.

The military and the people are united. Flood relief. One by one, the embankments where the cracks appeared, one by one the cracks were discovered, and one by one the most cracks were overcome. In this way, time slowly passed, and the heavy rain slowly decreased, turning into moderate rain, and the peak of the heavy rain has passed. But the confrontation with the flood is still ongoing. It's just that under Ye Hao's decisiveness, in his strategy, he is far less ferocious than in previous years.

This afternoon. Ye Hao led Yue Ruoyu and Zhen Mi, Xiu'er and the three daughters who had to keep up, and a group of soldiers to Zhangjia Village, which was very serious on the south bank of the Yellow River.

At this moment, Zhangjia Village, but there are countless people, there are more than 2,000 people, and all of them are gathered in front of a Dragon King Temple. What are they doing? Ye Hao and the third daughter were very puzzled. The carriage stopped. Ye Hao stepped forward.

When the soldiers inquired, it turned out that these people were preparing sacrifices. Pray to the dragon king to recede the flood, yes, not to pray for rain with sacrifices, but to recede the flood. After Ye Hao heard the explosive news, he was immediately annoyed, and he didn't repair the embankment. But what's the use of asking for the dragon king's here? Could it be that the flood could really be turned back?

Others are working hard, and these ignorant guys are still in the mood to ask for the Dragon King?

"Okay, I'll let you ask the Dragon King, I want you to know that I, Ye Hao, am the heaven of this Le'an County!"

Ye Hao's mood at the moment was very excited. Scolding, he walked directly to the vicinity of the Dragon King Temple.

"The guards obey orders, you went over and smashed the Dragon King Temple for me!"

Ye Hao's anger ordered, and after the order, seven or eight wolf-like soldiers with steel guns in their hands walked directly past the worshipping crowd and came to the door of the Dragon King Temple.

Countless ordinary people were almost frightened when they saw this formation. If you want to provoke the Dragon King, then you have to go? In the future, the harvest of the dealer will have to rely on the rain of the dragon king to eat. So a bunch of villagers intercepted all seven or eight soldiers outside the door. The martial arts of the pro-soldiers are very strong, but without Ye Hao's order, they don't dare to do anything with the villagers. So they were all intercepted and taken out of the door.

Ye Hao glared angrily when he saw this tiger, snatched a steel gun from the soldier's hand, and shouted loudly forward: "No one can stop me, I will smash this Dragon King Temple today!" ”

Saying that, Ye Hao didn't hesitate at all, directly squeezed away a few ordinary people, rushed to the statue of the dragon king, picked up the steel gun and smashed it towards the statue, with great violentness, only three or five times, and smashed the statue of the dragon king to pieces.

Even the sacrifices were scattered all over the ground.

Seeing the statue being shattered, everyone in the audience fell silent at this time, and the silence was terrifying. Countless pairs of eyes stared at Ye Hao, if his eyes could kill, he didn't know how many times Lu Dao had been killed!

Ye Hao didn't panic at all, and looked back at the person who was staring at him.

Some of them were timid and didn't dare to look into Ye Hao's eyes.

Ye Hao took a few deep breaths and scolded in a loud voice: "Wait for these ignorant people, sacrifice a fart." Without sacrificing to the dragon king, we can still defeat the flood! Conquer nature! ”

The voice was fierce, and he said with full authority.

"Brute, you dare to smash the statue of the Dragon King, if it gets angry, it will hurt us? Our Zhangjia Village sacrifice, when will it be your turn to meddle with this kid? ”

An old man with gray hair trembled with anger, and stretched out his finger to point at Ye Hao. The rough fingers were almost on Ye Hao's nose.

"Boldly Diao Min, do you want to rebel, this is the Taishou of Le'an County!" A soldier stood up and glared at the old man.

So a group of soldiers lit up their weapons and stood in front of Ye Hao, guarding Ye Hao, which has fully proved that he is Ye Hao, the Taishou of Le'an County! No need to explain.

Ye Hao's atmosphere directly pushed away these personal soldiers who were guarding him, and continued to shout in a loud voice: "Yes, I am Ye Hao, the Taishou of Le'an County." I want to ask, can the Dragon King really bring food to everyone? ”

"The recent changes in Le'an County, I think everyone sees it, who dared to exempt you from taxes for the world, who was afraid that you would be hungry and sent you rice and grain, and who found a way to make you rich and get rid of poverty? Whose credit is this, and whose credit is it? ”

"I told you and others, these are all made by me Ye Hao and the officials, with great effort and hard work, is it his dragon king? Can it be the Dragon King who is really there? ”

Ye Hao's voice was excited, and the villagers were a little ashamed of what they said.

When several elders heard the truth of what Taishou Ye Hao said, they immediately knelt down with guilt.

Ye Hao was still shouting in a loud voice: "The flood is coming, it is caused by the increase in rain under the torrential rain, the rapid increase in the water volume of the river, and the disrepair of the water conservancy project. It's not the Dragon King! Could it be that the inclined flood dragon king could still turn the flood back? You pat your conscience and tell me, can it be done by the Dragon King? Blind superstition or not! ”

Ye Hao's words were like a hammer and smashed directly on the hearts of the villagers, and some of them sat directly on the ground.

"But...... What are we going to do? The old man bowed his head in shame. The corners of his mouth quirmed, as if he still carried the fear of flooding.

"yes, what should we do?" There was a commotion in the crowd and they spoke.

A smile appeared on the corner of Ye Hao's mouth, patted his chest, and said very confidently: "The flood is not invincible, you can go to fight the flood and provide disaster relief." You can go and build a dam! ”

"But if the levee is repaired every year, it will still be washed away by floods!"

"That's because the levees weren't built strong enough! You go to help fight the flood first, and I will give you an answer within two days, and I, Ye Hao, promise that the embankment I build is stronger than the city wall, and I will not disappoint the villagers. You will not be threatened by floods again! ”

"Okay." Everyone got Ye Hao's assurance, and dispersed violently, what should they do.

——————————

In fact, what Ye Hao wants to do is to invent cement. Cement is not difficult to make.

Cement is the most used inorganic non-metallic materials in a building material and engineering materials, mortar or concrete made of it, strong and durable, widely used in civil construction, water conservancy, national defense and other projects.

The production process of cement uses limestone and clay as the main raw materials, which are crushed, batched and ground to make raw meal, fed into the cement kiln to calcine the mature material, and add an appropriate amount of gypsum (sometimes mixed with mixed materials, such as iron powder or admixtures) to grind finely.

The main component of cement is silicate. There are many types, and what Ye Hao wants to do is medium-grade Portland Type II cement (P.II.). It's also done in a very common way.

Ye Hao first ordered his subordinates to find a large amount of limestone (calcium carbonate) and yellow mud (a complex silicate substance), Ma Jun according to his instructions, mixed with eighty percent of the ground lime powder, mixed with about one percent of the clay, and less than half of the iron powder, put it in a vertical blast furnace, and put the coal found below to start burning.

When the lumpy object was burned, Ye Hao nodded with satisfaction, this is the upper level of cement, but the curing time of the cement is relatively long, so it is necessary to add gypsum bought from the medicinal herb shop (the main chemical component is calcium sulfate) to adjust the initial setting time, but the gypsum can not be added, and the solidified cement will become tofu slag.

"Lord, I'm really a little curious, what are we going to do?" Ma Jun asked puzzled.

Seeing that the cement was already calcining, Ye Hao finally had time to tell Ma Jun, "This is cement!" ”

"Cement? Is this water or mud? ”

Ye Hao patted Ma Jun's shoulder, and said with a smile: "Of course it's cement, cough cough...... Probably a kind of mud, right? (To be continued......)
