Chapter 43 Diverting the River into the River

Zhu Gaochi looked at Zhu Di with a surprised expression.

"Alright, let's go out, I'll stay by myself for a while."

Zhu Gaochi did not hesitate and withdrew from the Heart Cultivation Palace.

At noon, when Zhu Gaochi's people were about to leave, Zhu Di received a message from Xu Zilin.

"The people of Penglai County have a way to relieve the flood, and all the departments in the capital only need to suppress the rebels."

Xu Zilin's news reached Zhu Di's winery.

And after Zhu Di received the news, he also chose to believe Xu Zilin unconditionally.

"Now those who are going to go to the Yangtze River have already set off?"

"Back to Your Majesty, there is still about half an hour to go."

"I'm going to take a look, I'll tell them something."

After Zhu Di finished speaking to the eunuch, the people left the palace.

Soon, Zhu Di saw Jin Zhong, who was preparing to set off with his soldiers.

"Wait a minute."

Zhu Di hurriedly opened his mouth and stopped Jin Zhong.

"Your Majesty, Your Majesty is in such a hurry to come here, but what's the urgency?"

Jin Zhong turned his head to see Zhu Di, and hurriedly leaned over to salute Zhu Di.

"You come with me, I have something to say to you."

After Zhu Di called Jin Zhong aside, Zhu Gaochi's eyes, who were not far away, also kept looking this way.

"I've sent someone else to deal with the floods, and you're only responsible for suppressing the rebels, understand?"

Jin Zhong's eyes showed a sense of doubt.

"Who is the person sent by His Majesty, is it reliable, the flood is already uncontrollable by many people, can the person sent by His Majesty have a name?"

Zhu Di was stopped by Jin Zhong's question, and then he answered Jin Zhong helplessly.

But of course he will not expose Xu Zilin's name.

"You don't need to know who I sent, you just need to know your mission, there's nothing else to do, you can go."

Although Jin Zhong was puzzled, he still took the order and set off.

At the same time that the palace took people to set off from Linjiang Mansion, Xu Zilin also sent people to set off towards Linjiang Mansion together.

Penglai County is not too far from Linjiang Prefecture, and there are not many of them, but they arrived quickly.

"Brother Fang, this rain is so heavy, how can we dredge the flood."

After a few people arrived at Linjiang Mansion panting in their robes, they began to worry.

Originally, the news I received was just a light rain, but I didn't expect that this rain was not only not small, but also had a sense of flooding the entire Linjiang Mansion.

"Actually, it's not a big deal to rain too much, but I'm worried that if all the dirt and rocks on the top of this mountain slide down, I'm afraid we'll all be buried here."

Fang Bohong turned to look at the mountain behind him with a worried expression.

The people who came out this time were all experienced miners, and Fang Bohong was their boss.

It's just that, although everyone is a very experienced old miner, everyone is very nervous in the face of this kind of flood that they have never encountered.

"Brother Fang, if we can't go back, the county order and Your Majesty should know why we can't go back."

"What nonsense, we will definitely be able to go back, the county magistrate has told me everything, if we want to bring water into the sea, we must blow up the rocks that block the road, and open a new river to divert all the water from the mountain."

Fang Bohong said, turning his head to look at the steep and wet mountain road behind him.

"Brothers, although the road will be difficult to walk this time, we will also go, because the whole life of Linjiang Mansion is pressed on us."

"Don't worry, the brothers are all single-minded, not to mention that the capital also sent people out, although they are not here to eliminate the flood."

Someone on the side said to Fang Bohong, and he stabilized his mind and walked towards the mountain road.

The mountain was already very steep, but now the rain is quite urgent, the mountain road is covered with moss, and everyone is carrying tools and gunpowder, which is a big challenge for everyone.

Everyone cautiously moved towards the mountain step by step.

When he was about to reach the top of the mountain, Fang Bohong suddenly found a mountain col with sharp eyes.

"Look, isn't that col particularly suitable for drainage?"

Hearing Fang Bohong's eager tone, the people around him also followed Fang Bohong's fingers.

"Brother Fang, is that place feasible? If we throw explosives there, wouldn't it directly cause the rocks to go down directly if the amount of explosives we used too much? ”

"We don't have any other way now, so let's leave it here."

"Let's blow up a road from here and let the water lead to the river on the other side, as for the Linjiang Mansion, we try to let the mountains and rocks enter the river, as long as the water can't flow, the flood will naturally be lifted, do you understand what I mean?"

"Understandable Brother Fang, don't worry, we've been following you for so long, how can we not even understand what you mean."

With Fang Bohong's order, everyone walked towards the mountain col one after another.

It is impossible to push the whole mountain to it, although everyone has gunpowder in their hands.

But if the river is changed and the river is blocked, everyone is still a little confident in this.

After everyone was in place, Fang Bohong asked everyone to slowly throw explosives into the river.

The explosives were connected for a long time, and there were people watching near each of them to prevent water from entering the explosive leads.

"Alright, now it's time to ignite and blow up!"

After everyone slowly stopped moving, Fang Bohong said loudly to everyone.

As the explosives were ignited, everyone ran frantically to the flat ground on the side.

The rocks were blown away, and at this moment, it was not only raining heavily in the mountains, but also raining stones.

More or less everyone had some bruises on their bodies that had been hit by stones.

"Brother Fang, Brother Fang! The second stunned man was hit by a big stone! ”

Fang Bohong was hiding behind a tree and observing the river that had been blown up, when someone from behind him suddenly started calling him.

"What's wrong?"

Only then did Fang Bohong turn his head and walk in the direction of the shout.

In the distance, Fang Bohong saw a person lying on the ground, the blood flowed out of nowhere, and after mixing with the rain, it was already about to drown the person completely.

"Dumbfounded?"

Fang Bohong shouted, and then hurriedly walked to the man's side.

In fact, his name is Liu Erniu, but everyone thinks he is silly and stupid, so they all call him Erniu.

"Second stunned, how are you, can you hear me?"

Fang Bohong lay on the ground and shouted at Liu Erniu's ear, but helplessly, the other party did not react.

"In this way, the two of you will first take the two stunned people to Linjiang Mansion for treatment, if you can't save it..."

Fang Bohong said, his throat choked.

Liu Erniu has no family, he has always been alone.

Even after his death, no one could compensate him.
