Chapter 112: The Great River Flows

After coming down the mountain, he rode a horse with Sun Erren for several miles, came to the station of the river patrol regiment outside the city to report, and received badges, uniforms, spears, and swords.

The entire garrison is under military control, with strict discipline, people and vehicles come and go, and the manpower and materials in Beijing are gathered like a stream, which is very lively. The three of them went to the big tent of the Chinese army to meet the main general, and Liang Qichao was talking to Tongzhuang and Liang, and when he saw them, he nodded slightly, and said: "This time the river control is very important, it is related to the livelihood of the society and the people, and the safety of the people. ”

The three of them agreed in unison, the adjutant came in and whispered a few words, Liang Qichao got up and said, "Let's do this first, a few of you will discuss the escort work, and set off tomorrow." ”

Several people said goodbye, came to Zhuang Ji's tent, and after a few words, Zhuang Ji said: "It is still impossible to determine who is destroying the embankment, you must be prepared for the best." ”

Zhou Liang pointed to the east and asked, "Over there?" ”

Zhuang Ji said cautiously: "It may also be the north and the south, everything is more careful." "I also ordered seven or eight immortals, all of whom were masters of the third and fourth orders, all of whom were the captains of the group training immortal team, Zhuang Ji distributed the manpower one by one, delineated the task, who explored the way, who guarded, how to take shifts, how to cooperate, and what about emergencies.

Huang Shang listened quietly, there were about 1,000 people in the entire river patrol group, one of whom became an immortal, and the number alone has gathered almost one percent of the strength of the country, both the old and new parties, but this time the new party came to Zhou Liang, and it invisibly gained the upper hand.

Everyone discussed until noon, when the Red Cross team of Mulan Girls' School arrived at the station, and the arrival of more than ten female students made the camp lively, and Liang Qingya specially assigned three female fairies as their escorts.

Huang Sheng took a look, in addition to Gu Xi, Lu Yanyu was also among them, and the leading teacher was Liu Yin and a male teacher he didn't know, and his aura was also among the immortals.

As a knight, Huang Shang was not familiar with the immortals, and he did not cooperate much, so Zhuang Ji organized him and the rest of the careful masters into a special mobile team to check and fill in the gaps. He wandered around the camp alone for a long time, carefully observing the layout, but he also learned some things that he didn't usually pay much attention to.

Early the next morning, the rain still did not stop, the river patrol group started, divided into several teams, boarded the special train, halfway through, drove into the mountain after dark, emergency brakes, spies came to report, but the track in front of it was broken dozens of zhang, and it was impossible to travel.

The black light was blinding, and it was raining, Liang Qichao personally got out of the car to see it, his face sank like water, and he immediately said: "100,000 river workers are about to gather, and they must not be delayed here!" "There are not many immortals with the power to fly, and the consumption is also large, but fortunately, there are a small number of military horses on the cart. Liang Qichao picked out more than 30 people with more important duties, and ordered the rest of the people to wait for dawn to catch up quickly, and everyone got on their horses and galloped in the rain, guarding carefully all the way, fortunately, they arrived at a county town in the early morning, rested for a while, changed to another car, and arrived in Songcheng at noon the next day.

This place is very close to the Yellow River, it is one of the most serious sections of the Hanging River, Liang Qichao selected it as the base camp, the group got out of the car, first went to the county office, the county ordered Feng Da to rush out, a stack of forgiveness and forgiveness. Liang Qichao acted resolutely, asked about all the logistical preparations issued earlier, and asked about the assembly of river workers.

Liang Qichao gave several orders in a row, and the staff group immediately split up, and picked out a few people, because the road was muddy, and they could no longer sit in the car, so they had to ride to the Yellow River.

The rain curtain is continuous, a group of people can hear the sound of thunderous waves from afar, climb the river bank, look around, the river is vast, more than several miles wide, the opposite bank has almost become a thin line, the turbid river water is like an earthy yellow angry dragon, roaring in less than half a meter under the feet of everyone, tumbling endlessly, almost at any time may rush up, a whirlpool after a whirlpool, enough to be more than ten zhang square, rotating, undulating, rolling eastward, stirring up waves, mixed into the rain, hit the face.

The slight spring rain, less than one point, can accumulate into a surging mighty water, Huang Shang was silent for a while, and seemed to understand a trace of mystery.

The water of the Yellow River flows through the Loess Plateau, washes down a large amount of sediment, and when the flow rate slows downstream, the sediment will remain at the bottom of the river, accumulating over time, the riverbed is getting higher and higher, gradually exceeding the ground, becoming a hanging river on the ground.

Everyone was intimidated by the momentum of the river, and they all were silent for a moment before they came back to their senses and whispered, Liang Qichao was expressionless, looked at it from afar, turned to Zhuang Ji and Liang Qingya and said: "I will stop this natural disaster, and the man-made disaster will depend on the two." ”

Zhuang Ji arched his hand and said solemnly: "What my generation has learned, it is on this day, you can rest assured." ”

Liang Qichao nodded and hurriedly took people back to the city.

The remaining nine people present were all from the guards, Zhuang Ji waved his hand, and one of them came out and said, "Come with me." "Summoned the starlight, took off into the air, and the rest of the people followed, Huang Shang had no ability to do so for the time being, so he had to be led by Sun Cunzhou.

Flying out of more than ten miles, a group of people fell, it was still an embankment, all hard concrete, up to seven or eight meters thick, but it collapsed a series of large mouths, nearly 100 zhang wide, the river water rolled down, rushed into the plain, wild horses galloped around, I don't know how many fields were submerged, it was shocking to look at.

This matter is obviously man-made, everyone is full of righteous indignation, and a big man even scolded directly: "Which turtle grandson did such a thing to cut off children and grandchildren!" ”

Huang Shang heard Sun Cunzhou introduce this big man, a third-order immortal, surnamed Shi Minghu, with a violent temperament, making a good gun in one hand.

The man who led the way said: "Lord Zhuang, there are eleven more gaps like this along the river, and there are even more small ones, about a hundred. ”

In the middle of the breach, several sections of the embankment protruded from the water, like pillars, still doing their duty to block the river, but in vain, under the high-speed impact of the river, there was a sour moan from afar.

Everyone is discolored, and the small anthill is enough to make the embankment collapse and disintegrate, not to mention the gap. Zhuang Ji pondered for a moment and said to Liang Qingya: "Senior sister, I'm going to trouble you next." ”

Liang Qingya nodded slightly: "Senior brother just let it go." ”

Sun Cunzhou waved his hand: "Everyone stand back." The group withdrew more than forty feet.

Zhuang Ji stayed alone, flew to the sky above the broken embankment, took eight steps in the air, the direction was strange, the mantra was chanted in a low voice, and the invisible waves in a circle were turbulent, pointing to the sky with one hand and the ground with the other, and shouted: "Zhou Tian Xingli, listen to my orders!" Kunyuan Teng snake, up! ”

A large piece of brilliant starlight swayed down, covering the river embankment, and then there was a rumbling sound from the ground, getting bigger and bigger, like an earthquake, suddenly a huge earthy yellow giant snake flew out of the water, seven or eight zhang thick, more than a hundred zhang long, the dragon also danced wildly, roaring silently, shaking the soul.

Huang Shang looked at it intently, and found that the big snake was really made of unknown how many square loess changes, hovered in mid-air for a while, spread its body, and fell on the broken part of the river embankment.

Everyone was amazed, but when they saw Zhuang Ji's body shaking in mid-air, it seemed that he couldn't support it and fell straight down.
