Li Mengwei immediately ran to find the three people who cut down the trees.

This log is the key to the next remedy.

After a sharp axe and knife cutting by the three of them, the tree fell to the ground with a bang.

Li Mengwei hurriedly led people to trim off the branches that were not needed, leaving only one main trunk.

Then the four of them carried the log to the edge of the embankment.

In less than an hour, the gap had begun to widen and the water had become more rapid.

It was only at this time that Hao Xinxin's face turned pale and he understood what was happening.

No wonder this Shang Shusheng was so angry, and the two colleagues just now also spoke ill of him.

The embankment has collapsed!

Li Mengyan looked around and saw a few stones piled on the ground.

These stones were the ones he had instructed the other officials to lead the search for.

And the people under the command of Yu Huai'an were also found by officials to participate in the flood fight.

Seeing that the stone was almost there, Li Mengwei commanded everyone to poke the log towards the gap.

The log went upriver in the rushing water and rested on the breach.

Everyone who was holding a log had green muscles on their faces.

They are under the tremendous pressure of the flood.

Seeing that the log was in place, Li Mengwei hurriedly commanded the others to throw the stone down, and pressed it on top of the log, between the gaps.

With the weight of the stone, the pressure on several people is also much less.

After the stones were thrown, the gap was basically closed.

Li Mengwei breathed a sigh of relief and instructed the people to continue to drop the sandbags and strengthen the gap.

At the same time, another officer went to an adjacent defensive point to borrow some sandbags.

At the moment, this gap can only be said to be temporarily blocked.

If it is to be no longer leaking, it needs to be further reinforced.

It's just that the remaining dozen or so sandbags are not enough to seal it at all.

In this remedy, three people were swept away by the flood and disappeared without a trace.

According to the current rain and this water flow, I am afraid that it will be more auspicious and less auspicious.

Seeing that the opening was finally blocked, Li Mengwei breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, he also aimed his eyes at the anxious Hao Xin.

"You are Hao Sixin, who is stationed in Huai'an, right?"

Li Meng took a step forward, but there was no expression on his face.

But Hao's mind was trembling.

Although the gap was closed, he knew that they were negligent in their duties, and they would definitely be held accountable and punished by this cold-faced Shangshu.

So in the face of Li Mengwei's questioning, he seemed extremely nervous.

"Yes...... Lord Shangshu! Under...... The next official is Hao Xinxin."

Li Mengyan raised his eyebrows: "I don't think you have a good mind!"

That Hao Xinxin was taken aback, but he didn't dare to refute it, to anger Li Mengwei at this time.

But how did he know that Li Mengwei was already extremely angry.

He opened his mouth and asked, "This official asks you, why are there only ten bags of sand and gravel left for the materials left in the embankment?"

"What about the other materials? Where did it go?"

If it weren't for the shortage of materials, Li Mengwei would not have taken people to logging and quarrying.

Just use the remaining materials to find a way to fill it, there is no need to make it so troublesome and so thrilling.

If the people holding the logs just now didn't resist it, they would have been swept away by the flood!

And all those present will also be in danger.

Hao thought in a cold sweat.

Where these raw materials go, he understands.

But he didn't dare to say it.

Because of these things, he took them and sold them to invite singers to curry favor with Huai'an.

In previous years, he did similar things.

And every time it's much more outrageous than that.

After all, in previous years, the embankment was broken every year, and it was completely possible to exchange more than 80% of the materials for silver

for your own leisure.

But this year was different, with Li Mengwei on the scene to supervise, he only dared to use those spare materials.

Because these materials are only used when they are remedied.

Hao Xinxin didn't expect that Li Mengwei would come here at this juncture.

And it just so happened that the also collapsed in this matter.

He embezzled materials used in disaster relief, and neglected his duties with Yu Huai'an.

was hit by Li Mengwei!

Look at Hao Xinxin's pale face and stammering.

Li Mengyu knew what was going on!

It's nothing more than that kind of bullshit ***.

It's just that I didn't expect this person to be so bold!

I had already warned in advance.

How dare he behave like that!

It almost led to the failure of flood control!

At this time, Yu Huai'an was also tied with his hands and brought to Li Mengwei.

Li Mengwei looked at the uneasy appearance of the two, and a sneer appeared in his heart.

Why did you go earlier?

Panicked now? It's late!

He spoke slowly, "This official will give you a chance to explain!"

Hearing this, the two of them hurriedly knelt on the ground and begged, "Lord Shangshu, we know that we are wrong!"

"Master Shangshu, spare us!"

Li Meng turned a deaf ear, and just said lightly: "Since you two are unwilling to explain, then so be it!"

Hearing this, the two were obviously relieved.

It seems that Lord Shangshu is planning to lift it high and put it down gently.

Also, after all, the flood has not receded.

They're still useful.

As long as you make up for it at the next time, you may be able to reduce the punishment at the end.

However, all this is just their wishful thinking.

Li Mengwei turned around and said:

"Yu Huai'an neglected his duties, treating the people like grass and mustard, and treating the flood as nothing. At times like these, it's still time to have fun."

"The dam that led to the collapse was not repaired in a timely manner, and the damage was not reported to the officials in a timely manner."

"Almost made a big mistake!"

"When the Holy Lord ordered the official to come to Huainan for disaster relief, he let the official act cheaply and gave the official the right to kill and take away."

"Now, this official will make this first cut!"

"Someone, cut down that Yu Huai'an!"

Hearing this, Yu Huai'an was shocked and was about to protest.

And Hao Xinxin on the side also hugged him: "Lord Shangshu, although Lord Yu is wrong, but the sin will not lead to death!"

Hearing this, Li Mengwei turned his gaze away:

"Before you speak for others, look at your own situation!"

As he spoke, he waved his hand, and Yu Huai'an was taken away.

And Li Mengwei continued to say in a deep voice:

"Hao is greedy for disaster relief materials, and he is also negligent in his duties."

"It should have been punished with Yu Huai'an, and for the sake of his meritorious work in disaster relief, the death penalty can be avoided, but the living crime is unforgivable."

"This official orders you to continue to garrison here, to guard this section of the river embankment and the gap that was filled before."

"If anything happens here, don't want your little life."

"Wait for the disaster to pass, exile Hao Xinxin for three thousand miles, and he will not be able to return to Huainan in this life."

Li Mengwei's punishment, although it did not cost Hao Xinxin's life, was second only to beheading. Five

Hao Xinxin has been operating in Huainan all his life.

In this exile, a lifetime's hard work was wiped out.
