Chapter 713: Rhodes Controls the Water
"Dao Ancestor has said that the power of heaven and earth cannot be resisted with brute force, but must be followed. ”
..................
"Blocking is better than dredging, we should not focus on the control of floods on simple blocking, but should pay attention to the guidance of flood water potential. ”
..................
"Water control must be smooth, and the water will go down and lead it into the sea. The high place is chiseled, and the low place is channeled. ”
..................
"What? You say you don't know where to direct the river? You can even ask this kind of question, is the great sea in the eastern part of our Oakland Empire for you to see and fish, won't you bring the river to the sea?"
..................
"Also, there are many reasons for the floods, one of which is that the people in the upper reaches of the river have destroyed the vegetation too much, and the large-scale deforestation has caused soil erosion. ”
..................
If vegetation is destroyed on a large scale, its ability to retain water and soil will be greatly reduced, and ecological stability will be destroyed, and it is very easy to cause floods. ”
..................
"Therefore, in the future, we will carry out a series of measures such as artificial afforestation and returning farmland to forests to strengthen the greening of large rivers and maintain ecological balance. ”
..................
"Dredging the river is also a very important thing, the rivers of our Auckland Empire are all neglected and dredged, I have inspected some rivers in the past two days, many of them have been blocked by sediment, isn't this a disguised contribution to the outbreak of floods?"
..................
"Also, we need to build reservoirs that artificially regulate the amount of water in the rivers, store excess water in times of flooding, and release water from the reservoirs in times of drought. ”
..................
"I don't know what a reservoir is? Simply put, a reservoir is a big warehouse for storing water, do you understand?"
..................
"As for the people living along the river, they should build their houses on flat and stable hillsides and high ground, away from low-lying areas such as river beaches and ravines, so as to minimize the damage caused by flooding. ”
..................
"Also, we want to reduce CO2 emissions...... What? You don't know what carbon dioxide is? Do you have a culture?"
..................
Listening to the deafening teachings that continued to come from the mouth of the Pope in front of him, the imperial water conservancy experts and officials sitting at the head of the camp were flushed, ashamed of their ignorance, and bowed their heads deeply.
What is the ecological balance, what is soil erosion, what are reservoirs and carbon dioxide?
The words that kept popping out of Rhodes' mouth made these imperial water conservancy experts and officials ashamed, and their decades of experience in water control could hardly understand Rhodes's words.
Oh my God, what a wise Pope, what a learned Pope......
So far, what they can understand is that it is better to be blocked than to be sparse, and the water should be controlled by the water, and it is these two sentences that woke up everyone present.
Yes, simple interception will not solve the problem at all, and the history of the Oakland Empire's current water control has proved this problem, but they have not thought deeply about this problem, which is really stupid.
In fact, it is no wonder that these imperial water conservancy experts and officials are stupid, because the situation of the Ode continent is different from that of the earth, and the Ode continent is in an era of vindictiveness and magic, and the role of human power can almost be said to greatly surpass that of the earth, so their control over the flood is also greatly enhanced.
Just for the construction of river embankments, the humans of the earth may need to spend a lot of time making materials and then laborious construction, but on the continent of Ode, only a magician above level 6 can build a river embankment of hundreds of meters in a few days, and the high efficiency of the operation makes them have no urge to seek new ways to control the water.
After all, in the event of a flood, all you need to do is send in enough magicians and relief materials.
Therefore, the two methods of flood interception and disaster relief have been the two national policies of the Oakland Empire up to now.
Fortunately, the rivers that usually break out floods are not major rivers, and the floods caused by them are not extraordinarily large floods, which makes the flood problem not a big problem, and no one has specially carried out in-depth research and innovation in this area, and the form is so fixed.
It's just that no one thought that the Pericio River, which has the widest water system and the largest water area in the entire empire, would suddenly burst into a flood, making their series of water control methods ineffective, and this is why the current situation has emerged.
But it doesn't matter now, with the guidance of the Great Dao Ancestor and the Pope, it is no longer a problem for them to control the flood of the Perician River.
"Finally, after a major disaster, it is often accompanied by an epidemic, so we should take the initiative to do a good job in epidemic prevention and control, strengthen the management of feces, pesticides and rat poison, and pay special attention to the safety of food and drinking water. ”
Rod slowly knocked on the blackboard he made behind him, crossed a few important knowledge points, and then looked at the group of water conservancy experts and officials in front of him with a straight face, and said slowly,
"What about the above, it is the great Dao Ancestor Enlightenment, plus the eighteen methods of water control that I have summarized and summarized myself, do you still have any questions?"
Of course, the so-called eighteen methods of water control are not from the Dao Ancestor, but from the five thousand years of water control experience in Great Huaxia, the water control method has been partially adjusted by Rhodes in line with the actual situation of the Oude continent, and he can make these guys understand as much as possible, although he is not very sure how much this guy who is an expert can understand.
“............”
A group of water conservancy experts and officials did not answer, were silent for a moment, and suddenly saluted Rhodes respectfully, and shouted in unison,
"Praise the Dao Ancestor, praise the Pope!"
For these water experts and officials, at such times, there is nothing more than these two sentences to hide the embarrassment in their hearts.
I really don't understand......
Looking at the posture of everyone, Rod shook his head wordlessly, he had tried his best to speak in plain language, but he didn't expect these guys to still not understand, alas, Chinese culture is broad and profound.
Ignorance is terrible......
"Ladies and gentlemen, I will send you a series of regulations on the method of water control, and you must study it thoroughly in one day, and unfold the method of water control as quickly as possible, so as to solve the disaster of the Perician River flood as soon as possible. ”
Rod shook his head slightly in his heart, but he didn't say anything, after all, these guys present have no culture, but compared to others, they should be regarded as water control talents in water control, he looked around at the people around him, and said in a deep voice,
"Do you all understand?"
The bodies of the imperial water conservancy experts and officials shook slightly, and then they responded in a loud voice,
"Understood, Your Holiness Pope!"
