Chapter 238: Breaking the Levee
"Yu Huai'an! Come out to Lao Tzu!"
Li Mengwei was furious!
These guys actually took their words as a deaf ear.
He had told him to remember to strengthen the embankment!
But this Yu Huai'an actually let this place burst the embankment under his nose!
Where are the others? Where are the patrols arranged?
However, Li Mengwei's roar did not summon the repentant Yu Huai'an.
At this time, Yu Huai'an was hiding behind the screen with that beauty to have fun!
Where can I take care of the things on this embankment?
shouted a few times, and Yu Huai'an was nowhere to be seen.
Li Mengwei's anger gradually subsided.
He understands the priorities.
At present, it is more important than pursuing Yu Huai'an's responsibility to plug the gap.
Otherwise, after a while, the adjacent embankment will also be washed away, and the gap will continue to grow.
When the time comes, it's really hard to block it anymore!
Li Mengwei took a deep breath and began to think while observing the situation around him.
Before the rainy season, he ordered the officials to prepare sandbags for the construction of the embankment and the strengthening of the embankment.
At that time, he also made several patrols to check on them.
The embankment here is not a problem at the corner of the building.
It's just that now it's collapsed, and it needs to be repaired in time.
Supposedly, there should be spare sandbags around.
Li Mengyan led a few people to search for it nearby.
Soon, his face was as black as the lid of the pot.
The sandbags were found, but the quantity was impressive.
There are only a dozen of them.
This number of sandbags is simply not enough to contain the gap.
"My lord, what should I do now?" The people around me were a little anxious.
Because Li Mengwei told them from the beginning.
Once there is a breach of the embankment, then the officials of Huainan should not think about it.
Now I want to remedy it, but there is a lack of materials.
Li Mengwei said in a deep voice, "Anyway, let's move these sandbags over first and try to repair the embankment."
"Yes, sir!"
Several people worked together, and they moved a few bags of sandbags clean.
Later, under the command of Li Mengwei, it was thrown to the place where the embankment had burst.
However, under the huge flow of water, it is difficult for the sandbags to block the turbulence.
Instead, they were directly rushed away and washed away.
"Your Excellency!" Several people began to panic.
And although Li Mengwei was also frowning, he was not in a hurry.
He understood that at this time, there was no point in continuing to throw the sandbags down.
"You two, go and cut a thick log nearby, the thicker the better."
"For the rest of you, go, and bring all the bigger rocks around here!"
Under the command of Li Mengwei, his subordinates began to get busy.
It's just that if you want to cut down trees, you don't have the tools to bear them, and it's hard to do it at all.
So the two of them followed Li Mengwei to find Yu Huai'an and Hao Xinxin, who were guarding here.
Where they are stationed, there should be some tools.
Rushing back along the embankment, looking all the way, I finally found a house, and outside the house, there was Hao Xinxin, who was guarding.
Because the embankment burst, the two hated Hao Si and Yu Huai'an.
It's just that Yu's family is powerful, so it's not good to blame too much, but this Hao Xinxin is a soft persimmon.
So when they saw Hao Xinxin for the first time, the two began to scold.
In the midst of their insults, Hao Xinxin knew that the embankment they were responsible for guarding had actually burst.
Looking at Li Mengwei, who was dark-faced on the side, his face turned pale.
"You, go find some logging tools."
Li Mengwei commanded.
Na Hao thought like he had been pardoned, and hurriedly ran towards the house.
"Also, where is Yu Huai'an, you can find him for this official!"
Li Mengwei generally doesn't easily claim to be his own official, but this time he is really angry!
Hao Xinxin dared to delay, and hurriedly took out the axe and long saw from the side room.
It's just that in the face of Li Meng's later order, he was a little in a dilemma.
After all, he had found the dancing girl.
Gritting his teeth, he spoke, "Lord Shangshu, Lord Yu is running errands now, and it's inconvenient......
Li Meng's forehead jumped:
"What's the big deal? Can it be more important than flood fighting? Your levees have burst, and I am bringing people to remedy them, and where is he doing business?"
"I want to see what kind of national affairs he is doing! Even the flood control can be put on hold."
After speaking, he said to the two people on the side.
"You two, hurry up and get your tools and go to the wood!"
Then he glanced at Hao Xinxin: "You also help."
"Yes, sir!"
Hao wanted to speak again and again, but looking at Li Meng's angry appearance, he didn't say anything in the end.
After Li Mengwei gave orders to his subordinates, he walked straight towards the house.
Get things done! What a national event! Even flood fighting can be left behind!
So Yu Huai'an doesn't want a head?
However, as he approached the room, he heard a gasp from behind the screen.
Li Mengwei immediately understood what the situation was.
All right! This surnamed Yu is doing such a "good thing"!
Li Mengwei was furious.
Kick the screen down.
At this moment, Yu Huai'an, who was behind the screen, also realized that someone had come in.
Just before he could question the identity of the person who entered, he was smashed to the ground by the screen.
He was angry from his heart: "What kind of thing that doesn't have long eyes, disturbing the master's errands!"
"Me!" Li Mengwei said in a deep voice.
Yu Huai'an's anger disappeared, and he was covered in a cold sweat.
Why is it pouring rain like this, Li Meng's cold noodle Shangshu will come here.
His head was down.
And not only did he come here, but he also broke his own good deeds.
After a while, Yu Huai'an seemed to realize something, and roared angrily, "Hao Xinxin! You kid mistook me!"
However, no matter what Yu Huai'an thought, Li Mengwei didn't plan to let him go.
If it's an ordinary time, you are a daytime Yin Xuan, as long as you are not in public, or you rob the people's daughters.
Li Mengwei will not be idle, and he has nothing to do to control.
But before that, he repeatedly ordered that he should guard the section of the embankment that he defended.
Now that the levee has been breached, the people who should have defended it in the first place are having fun here!
"You're doing it yourself!"
Li Mengwei's face was very cold.
But instead of going on, he turned and left.
Compared with investigating Yu Huai'an's fault, at this moment, it is far more important to remedy the embankment!
He turned and walked out of the house, braving the pouring rain, and rushed to the embankment.
Inside the house, Yu Huai'an breathed a sigh of relief.
Anyway, Li Mengwei didn't deal with himself immediately.
But what next?
Is it a way to escape or what to say?
You must know that if you neglect your duties and get caught, I am afraid that Li Mengwei will not give up easily on this matter.
He was dressed and well-dressed, and planned to ask Hao Xinxin for clarification.
Obviously said to guard the door, why didn't Lord Shangshu notify him when he came?
