If it is a single break, it is not a big problem, at most it will flood several counties.

But if you change the route, it's a big problem......

"Are you really helpless?" asked Liu Shengzhi.

Many officials of the Ministry of Industry were ashamed and did not speak. In such an era, the Yellow River was not seriously flooded.

After the Song Dynasty, especially in the Ming and Qing dynasties, the flooding of the Yellow River was already one of the most important matters in the eyes of the imperial court...... There are special river control yamen......

And now, the Han Dynasty, who had just established the country, did not even have an official who was proficient in water conservancy and knew how to govern the country.

In the silence, Liu Shengzhi suddenly opened his mouth and said, "Since you don't open your mouth, then I have a way......

As he spoke, he smiled coldly and drew a hard stroke on the map, but the tone in his mouth was very flat: "Dig the embankment here for me......"

"Ah!" everyone was shocked when they heard this. I never thought that everyone was desperately preparing to strengthen the embankment, but Liu Shengzhi actually wanted to dig up the embankment, which no one could have imagined.

Only Bu Pengpeng didn't blink his eyes, only he roughly understood what Liu Shengzhi meant, this is to settle the river once and for all!

Seeing the shock at this moment, Bu Pengpeng calmed down and said, "The method Your Majesty said, I have also thought about it......"

"In ancient times, the Yellow River had several rivers flowing into the sea, so that there were nine rivers in the classics, and there were no major rivers at that time......

But when it came to the Warring States period, the countries along the river were guarding against all rivers. ...... each for his own benefit"

From the fifth year of King Zhou Ding, the flood took the river from Suxukou. Go east to Luochuan, and then diverge with Luochuan to Changshoujin. The Zhanghe River in the north enters the sea to Zhangwu. The first large-scale diversion floods have occurred since the ......

For more than 2,600 years, the lower reaches of the Yellow River have experienced a great cycle of oscillation from north to south and from south to north. Among them, there are countless breaches and diversions......

It can be said that most of the reason why the floods in the Yellow River are so frequent and severe is due to human causes.

In short, during this period, the lower reaches of the Yellow River were not built with embankments, and the river course was unconstrained, and the flow was uncertain. From time to time, there may be a situation where multiple rivers coexist.

The Yellow River did not have a fixed course, but at least three or more rivers flowed into the sea, so the water flow was smooth at that time, and there were no major disasters.

However, in the middle of the Warring States period, each country began to build embankments in their own countries because they wanted to enjoy water conservancy and avoid water damage......

The states of Qi on the side of the Yellow River and the states of Zhao and Wei on the opposite side competed to raise the embankment of the Yellow River. However, at that time, the distance between the two banks of the embankment was as wide as 50 Han li, which is equivalent to more than 40 li now......

At that time. The river is so wide that the Yellow River certainly won't flood. The river is wide enough for it to flow freely.

However, after the growth of teeth, the large areas of beach land silted out on both sides of the river trough in the embankment were reclaimed, and the people's mounds were built for self-defense. Those who are far away are miles away from the water, and those who are close are only a few hundred steps.

So the riverbed was pressed, and the river was tortuous. The siltation is rapid, and the danger is repeated. At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the river in Jun County, Henan Province. The river is above the level and is clearly overhanging.

This began the prelude to the 2,000-year-old flooding of the Yellow River!

The river of the Western Han Dynasty was seriously affected. There have been 10 large-scale diversion attempts in the literature alone.

Until the time of Emperor Ming of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Jing carried out comprehensive management of the river water that flowed at the end of the Western Han Dynasty. A new road was opened up through measures such as dredging blockages, straightening of bends, and construction of embankments and water gates.

The new Yellow River course is straight, conducive to sediment erosion, and slow siltation. Moreover, at that time, there were many branches in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, which either entered the sea alone or flowed into other rivers, which played the role of flood distribution and sediment discharge, so the river channel was stable......

So much so that from the end of the Eastern Han Dynasty to the end of the Tang Dynasty, in the past eight or nine hundred years, there has been no major flood in the Yellow River.

Of course, this is in a different space-time trajectory. And I see, in this space-time trajectory, there is about to be a large-scale flood.

At this time, Liu Shengzhi drew a stroke on the map, which meant that the Yellow River should be artificially diverted again......

That's why everyone saw it, and that's why it's so alarming!

"Your Majesty, in fact, Wang Jingzhi River is already quite good, and now it has gone through three or four hundred years, and the river is not in great trouble...... It seems that there is no need to open a new river course here. ”

Bu Pengpeng had to carefully remind Liu Shengzhi that in fact, Wang Jingzhihe was already the best plan, so that he managed it until the end of the Tang Dynasty.

It's just that the Yellow River carries too much sediment, after nearly 1,000 years of accumulation, to the end of the Tang Dynasty began to the lower reaches of the Yellow River estuary section has gradually silted up, now Shandong Shanghe, Huimin, Binzhou City and County in the river and high houses more than a foot, become a land hanging river. Finally, the ...... is clogged up

It's good for a project to be able to manage for thousands of years. No matter how much Liu Shengzhi changes now, I'm afraid there won't be a better plan!

Who knows, Liu Shengzhi heard it, but smiled faintly: "Where did I say that I want to open another river, I want to create a big lake here!"

"Ah!" everyone was shocked when they heard this, the place that Liu Shengzhi had just drawn on the map was in the Puyang area.

"Isn't there Razor around there?"

Unlike later generations, in such times, that place can be described as an abundant source of water. It is known as the four rivers and eight waters!

There are large lakes such as Heze, Leize, Dayozawa, Mengzhuze, etc., and the famous rivers are Jishui, Pushui, Fushui, Yongshui, Heshui, Bianshui, Huangzhishui, and Mishui. Razor alone has an area of more than 100 li, and Onozawa has an area of more than 300 li...... These lakes and rivers crisscross into large swamps and wetlands......

These lakes and tributaries can act like capillaries to help the Yellow River store and discharge floodwater, and so on......

This is also a very important reason why Wang Jingzhihe can manage for thousands of years!

Liu Shengzhi smiled coldly: "That's right, I want to create another thousand-mile lake in the east of the Yellow River......

Everyone was shaken, but Peng Peng showed a thoughtful expression, and said for a long time: "This is also possible...... As long as this lake exists, it can help the Yellow River to divert and store water, and the flooding will be even less ......"

If Liu Shengzhi said such shocking words in a different era, I am afraid that he would have been regarded as crazy by his courtiers!

You know, where did Liu Sheng's knife go?

This is the land of Dongjun, the land of the country, with many household registrations and outstanding people......

No joke, before the Southern Song Dynasty, this place was definitely the most elite place in Middle-earth.

And Liu Shengzhi actually wants to open up a big lake here, but how many farmland and villages will be submerged? How many people will leave their homes? )
