Chapter 389: Working Together
Ye Li has been busy with Wu Shan on the river embankment for two days.
During this time, I took a four-hour nap.
He could feel Wu Shan's physical exhaustion, which was like his own exhaustion.
What caught his eye was that Wu Shan's spiritual light was still shining, and it seemed that he knew very well what he was going to do.
It's just that the atmosphere on the embankment is not very good, and the people who came to strengthen the embankment are despairing as they look at the rising water level.
Once the embankment is breached, their homeland will become a wasteland.
But what else can they do when this happens?
Ye Li and Wu Shan hadn't said a word to the people here in the past two days, but they had already perfectly integrated into the locals.
The village women who came to deliver the food naturally brought their share, and when Wu Shan was tired and fell, someone would naturally come to help him.
Wu Shan looked at Ye Li and said, "Ah Li, you all said that the people of Shannan would be hostile to us, but I think everyone is the same person." ”
"You see, as long as we are genuinely willing to give for them, they will treat us as their own."
At this time, how can he still look like a scholar at Beishan Academy?
His body was already covered with mud, and his whole body was wet under the washing of the rain.
Ye Li's image is very similar to his.
The two went through the same thing.
However, for Ye Li, the feeling he has received these days is different.
He saw the people running to and fro on the embankment, desperate trying to seize a glimmer of life, and their homes were unavoidable behind the embankment.
For the sake of a small family, they are doing their best.
This is also a kind of light, called the light of guardianship.
Ye Li suddenly felt that he had gradually lost interest in the light of the stars, but was full of understanding of the light of the hearts of all things and all spirits.
He likes to mingle in the light.
And it was the afternoon of the next day that this light suddenly brightened.
The rain that had just stopped was pouring down again.
When the water level is about to rise again.
A convoy came from afar.
That's a full load of military vehicles!
These military vehicles crossed the river upstream, and then drove for a day and a night through the newly opened mountain road, and finally arrived.
Looking at the dragon-shaped spray paint flying on the military vehicle, Ye Li grabbed Wu Shan and said with relief: "Look, it's the dragon pawns, they're here!" ”
Wu Shan's eyes suddenly lit up when he saw this, and he said happily: "The teacher is really amazing, he must have persuaded those big officials!" ”
Ye Li nodded with a smile.
Then he said, "You seem to have noticed that your teacher is very good?" ”
Wu Shan said: "Of course, how can ordinary people have such armor and so much convenience? ”
Wu Shan is not stupid, but he probably would never have thought that the teacher who had been messing around with him all day would be the Dragon Emperor of the Dragon Kingdom.
The dragon pawns lined up neatly on the embankment, and then immediately joined the operation to strengthen the embankment.
They are neat and well-trained, but they do much better than ordinary people.
At this time, seeing Lao Huang walking out of a military vehicle, he looked at the two people in front of him and smiled and said, "You two, why are you all the same as mud monkeys?" ”
Wu Shan smiled and didn't speak.
Ye Li said with emotion: "Otherwise, how can we get along with the people here?" ”
Lao Huang was surprised, and looked thoughtfully at the people on the embankment looking at the soldiers with extremely hot eyes, as if he had seen a savior.
At this time, who is still the difference between the south and the north?
All they know is that the dragon pawns are here to protect their homeland!
In the end, Lao Huang said: "Shan'er, Ah Li, you should have a good rest first, you should be tired from looking like you, right?" ”
Ye Li shook his head and didn't say anything.
Instead, Wu Shan said: "I'm okay, teacher, let's go and help!" ”
Lao Huang said: "This time I brought 100,000 dragon pawns, where do I need your help?" ”
However, the truth was like a hard slap in the face.
Suddenly, there was a roar, and a frightened cry came from the embankment: "The embankment has burst, the embankment has burst!" ”
I saw that the embankment collapsed all of a sudden, and the turbid river water rushed down and rushed to the fields behind it.
And in the distance of these farmlands, there are several villages.
The river embankment bursts, and the villages here are not lucky.
The dragon pawns who had just arrived were stunned for a moment, and then hurriedly picked up sandbags and filled the breach under the urging of the officer.
Muddy water still gushed out from the breach, and soon the farmland under the river embankment had become Zeguo.
Moreover, the water is so strong that the bags of sediment are often washed away before they are thrown down.
Fortunately, there were many dragon pawns, and they tried their best to run on the river embankment.
In this process, Wu Shan and Ye Li joined the anti-bag team without saying a word.
Seeing this, Lao Huang did not hesitate, and immediately transformed into an 'Emperor Hero', and then carried an earthmoving cart directly in one go, and used the power of the armor to dump sand into the gap in one go.
That's what makes things so much better.
This time the breach was finally blocked before dark.
The people on the embankment were grateful to this 'emperor hero' who suddenly appeared, and their homes were almost washed away.
Seeing this, Ye Li said: "Let's divide some people to evacuate the people to a safe place first, I think sooner or later the embankment will have to break here." ”
Lao Huang smiled bitterly and said, "Have you taken it into account?" ”
"It's useless, these people came here spontaneously to help after settling their old and young."
Ye Li was slightly surprised, then nodded and said, "That's fine, it's better." ”
"Then, try to keep them safe."
Lao Huang said: "That's natural, after all, they have lived by the river for a long time, and I now let them be responsible for monitoring the status of the embankments along the river, and notify us immediately if they find signs of a breach." ”
"The most dangerous and troublesome place has to be my dragon pawn!"
Lao Huang said it arrogantly.
Now this scene of empathy between the military and the people has a great touch for him, and he finds that Wu Shan is right, he must do it to bring about change.
That night, there were two more breaches on the embankment.
Lao Huang can be said to be the first to take the lead, and he rushes to the forefront every time.
With him, the 'emperor', the most dangerous section of the embankment can finally be turned into safety again and again.
This time, 100,000 dragon soldiers were mobilized in one breath to fight the flood, and the people who came to this section were only more than 1,000 people.
And many dangers along the river are controlled by dragon pawns.
In the face of this unprecedented flood in the Dragon Kingdom, the imperial court's move to dispatch dragon pawns to rescue the danger can be said to be greatly beyond everyone's expectations.
There is no precedent for using the army to fight floods.
This inevitably focused the attention of Shannan and Shanbei here, and the hearts of the people of the world were also affected by this.
Since all eyes are on it, it is natural that there are reporters to follow up and report.
And the very special existence of 'Emperor Xia' has become the most eye-catching one.
