"Drive! Drive!"
The words are over.
The anxious Ji Jinping couldn't respond as quickly as Pao Ze.
He immediately drove his war horse towards the place where the sound came from.
Unexpectedly.
The war horse Fang Yi left the military formation.
Ji Jinping instantly felt that the rolling torrent was ten times more powerful than before.
The originally slow but exceptionally steady war horse sat beneath his crotch. rough
At this time, he was constantly staggering and struggling in the rolling torrent.
In panic.
Ji Jinping had no choice but to hold on to the reins for a moment.
Just when Ji Jinping was filled with regret and despair.
Suddenly dozens of riders arrived together.
Not long after.
Dozens of cavalry formed several circular military formations with Ji Jinping as the center. rough
Until the torrent in the center unconsciously softened by more than ten times.
"Thank you...thank you."
In the center, Ji Jinping, who had finally managed to stabilize his horse, looked at the familiar and unfamiliar figures around him with a pale face.
The bloodshot eyes instantly became a little redder.
"What! Did you, Ji Jinping, hear the shout, but we couldn't hear it?"
"You're a bastard! You left the military formation without permission! Do you not want to live anymore or something!"
"After returning to the camp, I will go to the Military Disciplinary Office to collect twenty military sticks!"
"Why are you still standing there! Let's go! Save your son!"
Not far away from Ji Jinping, a burly man with a beard shouted angrily.
If he hadn't led his people to help in time just now.
Nowadays, Ji Jinping may have completely disappeared into the rolling torrent.
As Ji Jinping's uncle, how could he be so depressed?
"Yes, uncle."
Ji Jinping, who was still in shock, immediately had tears in his eyes when he heard this, and quickly lowered his head in response. rough
"Everyone listen!"
"Stay in formation! Stay close to the person in front of you!"
The man with a slight beard yelled, and then he clamped the horse's belly and walked slowly towards the slope not far away.
Ji Jinping quickly calmed down and followed Paoze beside him as he walked slowly towards the slope.
"Dad! I am Gao Yun! We are here! Come and save us!"
"Uncle Ji! Gao Yun is here! Come and save us!"
"Don't panic, nephew! Your uncle Sun and your father are here to save you!"
"Don't panic, nephew! Your Uncle Zhang is here too!"
"Big nephew! And your Uncle Liu and me!"
"And me and me! I'm your Uncle Qian!"
"I am your Uncle Wu!"
「……」
「……」
"Fart! Listen up, son! Except the one with the beard on his face is your Uncle Sun!"
"The others are all your uncles!"
"Straight bitch, want to take advantage of me? No way!"
In the military formation.
After Ji Jinping heard the ridicule next to him and his son's increasingly clear voice.
The heart that had always been hanging finally fell back slightly.
After calming down for a moment, he immediately laughed and retorted.
Not long after. rough
The military formation finally arrived in front of the slope.
"The old man He Lijian of Heshui Town respectfully welcomes Master Wang."
"Old Geng Mao of Heshui Town sincerely welcomes Master Wang."
He Lijian and Geng Maocheng stood on the slope near the water, facing the soldiers of Wang's Camp and bowing deeply with their hands raised.
Uncle Sun, who had always been carefree, couldn't help but be stunned on the spot when he saw this.
It wasn't until the soldiers beside him kept pulling at his clothes that he finally came back to his senses.
"Ahem." Ruo
"Sun Yongqing, the eldest uncle under King Yan, returned the gift."
Sun Yongqing, who had already returned all the gifts from Wang Daying to his husband, scratched his head repeatedly and returned the gifts in a nondescript manner.
"Where's the child?"
After finishing speaking, Sun Yongqing hurriedly changed the subject.
"It's all on the slope."
"I will bring the children down now."
Geng Maocheng saluted again, and then quickly climbed up the slope. rough
"Ji Jinping, take twenty people to help the elderly."
Upon seeing this, Sun Yongqing turned to look at Ji Jinping and gave instructions.
"Yes, uncle!"
Ji Jinping clasped his fists in gratitude and saluted, then quickly turned over and dismounted from his horse and ran towards the slope.
"I wonder how many royal divisions His Highness, King Yan, will be commanding this time?"
After Ji Jinping and others completely disappeared from sight.
He Lijian asked again. rough
"startled."
Sun Yongqing's face paused when he heard this, and he pondered for more than ten breaths before he figured out what He Lijian meant by Master Wang.
"Your Majesty has mobilized a total of 20,000 royal troops this time."
Sun Yongqing considered his words and answered.
"Twenty thousand royal masters?!"
"Heshui Town can be saved! Yanxian City can be saved!"
After hearing this, He Lijian, who had been calm and composed all night, burst into tears. rough
"startled."
See this.
Sun Yongqing had to scratch his head again and again.
Fortunately it didn't take long.
Ji Jinping and others carried children one after another down the slope.
"Let's go, it's almost three quarters of an hour."
Sun Yongqing felt relieved and quickly ordered. rough
Not long after.
War horses carried children and old people one after another deep into the rolling torrent again.
Not far away.
Dozens of ships of various sizes suddenly appeared ahead.
"On the order of the prince! I'm here to help you!"
"Hurry and help the people board the ship."
...rough
...
I do not know how long it has been.
Maybe an hour or two.
Maybe it's just a quarter of an hour or two.
When more and more ragged people gathered around the highlands.
The violent storm that had been raging for an unknown amount of time finally slowed down.
It didn't take long for everyone to breathe a sigh of relief. rough
Suddenly, several horses came running wildly from the high ground and underground.
"Report!"
"Report!"
"Report!"
The sound came out.
Whether it is the people in distress or the soldiers of Wang's camp who stand like pine trees on the high ground.
They all tensed up in unison. rough
Afraid of the slightest surprise happening again.
"allow."
Halfway up the hillside, Xu Yi frowned slightly for a moment.
Then he slowly turned around and looked at the horses that were running towards him.
After getting Xu Yi's permission, several messengers marched to the halfway point of the high ground without any hindrance.
"Your Majesty."
"Hejia Town, Mengzhuang Township, Ziliu Township, and Wangjiatun River Embankment are in emergency!"
As soon as the order was sent, the soldiers turned over and dismounted and quickly rushed to Xu Yi three steps away and clasped their fists to report.
"Hejia Town, Mengzhuang Township, Ziliu Township, Wangjiatun."
When Xu Yi heard this, a map of the four places appeared in his mind.
"You Yaoqing!"
Xu Yi pondered for a few breaths and then named him.
"The end will be here."
Upon hearing this, a general wearing pitch-black armor quickly stepped out of the line, clasped his fists and saluted. rough
"I'll give you two thousand troops and go to Hejia Town immediately for reinforcements!"
Xu Yi took out several talismans from his arms and solemnly handed one of them to You Yaoqing.
"Follow the order!"
You Yaoqing stepped forward a few steps, his hands
After taking over He Fu, he solemnly clasped his fists and saluted, and quickly ran towards the high ground.
"Chang Sanjin!"
"The general is here!"
"Take your troops to reinforce Wangjiatun immediately!"
"Follow the order!"
"Ye Guolu!"
"The general is here!"
"I give you 1,500 men! Reinforce Mengzhuang Township immediately!"
"Follow the order!"
"Zhang Junsong!"
"The end is here!"
"I give you 1,500 men! Reinforce Ziliuxiang immediately."
"Follow the order!"
Along with the talismans disappearing from Xu Yi's hands.
The soldiers of Wang Daying, who stood motionless in the storm like cold statues, instantly revived.
Then, under the orders of each talisman, he quickly flew towards the surroundings.
The swiftness and neatness of his movements made Hou Wenyuan and Zhang Yiming stunned.
Not long after. rough
Most of the nearly 10,000 soldiers standing under the high ground had disappeared.
at the same time.
The water level in Heshui Town is also falling rapidly.
"Report to your lord!"
"The water level in Heshui Town is falling rapidly!"
After receiving the news below, Wang Jingbo quickly walked to Xu Yi's side and cupped his fists to report.
"Okay!" Ruo
Xu Yi couldn't help but breathed a sigh of relief when he heard this.
Not long after.
Niu Yuanheng, who drove into the town, lay down in the water that had reached his knees and walked towards higher ground step by step.
"Your Majesty."
"The dam of Heshui Town has been filled in."
"Xin Xiaowei and Dong Qianhu are leading people to reinforce the river embankment at this time."
Niu Yuanheng dragged his muddy body to three steps behind Xu Yi. rough
"good."
Xu Yi nodded slightly, then turned around again and looked down at the town.
After counting the interest.
Xu Yi ordered in a deep voice again: "Lu Nengjie."
"The end will be here."
Upon hearing this, a general wearing black armor immediately stepped out of the line and saluted with his fists clasped.
"Immediately lead your troops and light bonfires in the southeast, northwest and middle of Heshui Town." Guang Guo.
"Leave a hundred people guarding each bonfire. If any surviving people come to patrol, we will immediately lead them outside the town."
Xu Yi slowly turned around and ordered in a deep voice.
"Follow the order!"
Upon hearing this, the music director Lu Nengjie quickly clasped his fists and saluted, and then ran away.
After Lu Nengjie's figure completely disappeared from sight.
Xu Yi looked at Niu Yuanheng again and said, "Your troops will stay on the high ground to rest and maintain order among the people."
"Wait for Captain Qu to return home."
"Tell them to take a short rest and then immediately disperse their troops."
"Fifteen hundred people reinforce Hejia Town."
"Thousands of people reinforce Shiliuxiang."
"Thousands of people reinforce Mengzhuang Township."
"Five hundred people reinforce Wangjiatun."
The words are over.
Niu Yuanheng's expression became serious, and then he clasped his fists and saluted, "Follow the order." Guang Guo
Xu Yi nodded slightly, then looked at the messenger beside him.
"Send orders to Xin Sixuan."
"After the river embankment is completely stabilized."
"He has three thousand troops, leaving a thousand more to guard against a second breach of the dike."
"The rest will rest for a while and then set off to Yanxian City."
"Send the order to Dong Xing."
"After the Heshui Town river embankment is completely stabilized."
"Two thousand of his troops immediately rested in place to prepare for emergencies."
The herald Wang Jingbo looked confused for a moment after hearing this, then he clasped his fists and saluted, saying, "I obey the order!"
"Goodbye first."
Xu Yi nodded slightly, then looked sideways at Yang Xian'an.
"I'm here!"
When Yang Xianan heard this, his expression changed.
After a pause, he quickly stepped out of the queue and bowed his hands in salute.
"Sit here on behalf of Gu to appease the people."
"In the event of an emergency, we can deploy troops to suppress the danger as appropriate."
Xu Yi took out the Yan Wang Ling from his arms and handed it to Yang Xian'an solemnly.
"I obey your order!"
Yang Xian'an took the order from King Yan with both hands, and then saluted again with a solemn look on his face.
"The rest will follow Gu Gu to Yanxian City!"
Xu Yi waved his hand slightly, and then strode down to the high ground.
Compared to Heshui Town. rough
Obviously Yancheng City is more suitable as the location of the "Chinese Army Tent".
If it weren't for Heshui Town's dike bursting, it would be in danger.
I'm afraid Xu Yi has already arrived at Yanxian City.
Now the danger of Heshui Town has been determined.
Many matters in Hejia Town, Ziliu Township, Mengzhuang Township, and Wangjiatun have been settled one by one.
Xu Yi naturally no longer had the need to stay here.
Not long after. rough
The remaining three thousand soldiers mounted their horses again.
Walking on a dirt path full of mud and potholes, we ran straight towards the location of Yanxing City.
...
...
Outside the city of Yanzhang.
Sanggan River Embankment.
As the storm gradually subsided. rough
The tense atmosphere at the river bank was so intense that it was almost substantial.
Finally got some relief.
Xu Zhenggui, who was covered in mud and could no longer see his face, collapsed not far from the river embankment.
Looking at the dark sky with a silly smile on his face.
Although the sky was still dark at this time, the scalp-numbing lightning and thunder were no longer there.
"Resist...bear it..."
"Finally...I finally took it..." Ruo
Xu Zhenggui murmured a few words in a low voice with a silly smile on his face.
In the end, I still couldn't bear the fatigue all over my body.
He slowly closed his eyes and fell asleep completely.
I do not know how long it has been.
Xu Zhenggui's ears were suddenly filled with anxious noises.
: "Straight bitch! Who blocked the eastern section! How did you do this!"
: "Don't rest any longer! There's another problem in the eastern section!"
: "Quick! Someone, hurry up! Don't let all the straight bitches rest!"
: "Where's the sack! Get the sack quickly!"
"Where are the sacks? All the sacks sent by Magistrate Zhu have been used up!"
: "Then what to do!"
: "Where is Magistrate Xu! Have you found Magistrate Xu?"
: "We haven't found it yet, Magistrate Zhu, what should we do now!"
: "What else can I do! I have twenty more vehicles! Old rules! Fill them with stones to block the embankment for me!" Guang Guo
: "The stones have been used up a long time ago! What should I do, Magistrate Zhu!"
: "What should I do? What should I do? If the stone is gone, get the wood! If that doesn't work, get the corpse!"
: "Yes! Magistrate Zhu!"
: "Also! Fifty government officials are divided! Hurry up and find your County Magistrate Xu!"
The river bank is not far away.
Xu Zhenggui was lying on the wet ground covered in mud.
When he heard that the east section was about to burst again, he tried hard to open his eyes. rough
But the tightly closed eyes seemed to be completely condensed by the glutinous rice triple soil.
No matter how hard he struggled, he never moved an inch.
After hearing Zhu Qingxiong's voice.
Xu Zhenggui struggled hard to move his hands and feet and open his eyes.
But until Zhu Qingxiong's voice gradually faded away.
Xu Zhenggui's hands and feet seemed to be completely solidified to the earth by hot molten iron.
No matter how much he roared in his heart, he couldn't move even a little bit. rough
Just when Xu Zhenggui's heart was filled with despair,
.
Suddenly, there were two slight footsteps.
"There's another body here."
"Hurry up, you and I each pull one leg, the east section is almost blocked."
A feeble but terrifying sound "exploded" next to Xu Zhenggui's ears.
"good."
"I'm offended." Ruo
The other person agreed, then weakly muttered an offence.
The words are over.
After counting the interest.
Xu Zhenggui felt two cold hands suddenly appear on his ankles.
Don't wait for Xu Zhenggui's reaction.
His legs were already hanging in the air.
After being dragged on the muddy ground for several steps. rough
Xu Zhenggui just struggled to open his eyelids that seemed to be worth a thousand pieces of gold.
"Ahem."
"Ahem, cough, cough."
"Put...put me down...I...I'm still alive..."
Xu Zhenggui coughed several times before regaining some strength.
"Still...still alive?"
The two people in front of him froze when they heard this. rough
He quickly lowered Xu Zhenggui's legs.
"I...we...we saw that you were motionless...still...not breathing...this...this talent."
The two turned around with difficulty and stammered.
"Hel...help me up..."
Xu Zhenggui gasped as if he hadn't heard anything.
After the two of them trembled, they helped him up.
Only then did Xu Zhenggui manage his breathing with difficulty. rough
Take a moment to calm down and look carefully.
He saw that the two people beside him were both very thin and thin. Although the mud made it difficult to see their specific appearance.
But from the trembling body like a child who has done something wrong and the panic and consternation in his eyes.
It is not difficult to see that the two of them did not do this deliberately.
"It's not your fault."
"Next time, check your breathing before moving anyone."
"Okay, go and help block the water." Ruo Guo
Xu Zhenggui let out a long sigh, then turned around and walked slowly in the direction where Zhu Qingxiong's voice disappeared just now.
The two people were left stunned in place, looking at each other.
At the river embankment a few hundred steps away.
Zhu Qingxiong, who was also covered in mud, was supported by two Pan County government officials.
His voice was hoarse and he gave orders one after another.
A wave of soldiers, government servants, and civilians were dispatched to come and go in an orderly manner on the eastern section of the river embankment.
From his almost crimson complexion, it was not difficult to see that Zhu Qingxiong was about to lose his ability to hold on at this moment. rough
"The straight bitch Xu Zhenggui!"
Zhu Qingxiong cursed a few words in his mind, and then bit the tip of his tongue.
I hope that through the severe pain, I can gain some clarity in my already chaotic brain.
Nowadays, Xu Zhenggui cannot be found everywhere.
He is the person with the highest official position among the thousands of people on this three-mile long embankment.
You can imagine how heavy the burden is on his shoulders.
"Zhu...Magistrate Zhu!"
Just when Zhu Qingxiong's brain was about to become chaotic again.
A figure covered in mud, whose original appearance was completely unrecognizable, staggered towards it.
"Xu...Xu County Magistrate?"
Zhu Qingxiong bit the tip of his tongue and forced himself to maintain a three-point posture.
"It's...it's me."
Xu Zhenggui staggered to Zhu Qingxiong's side and answered weakly.
"Where did Magistrate Xu go just now?"
"Why are you in such a mess?"
Zhu Qingxiong frowned and then asked.
"well."
"It was raining heavily just now."
"The east and west sections are in emergency at the same time."
"When the situation was critical, Xu had no choice but to go into battle himself."
"I finally managed to hold on to the water, but I was exhausted and passed out beside the river embankment." Ruo Guo.
"If I hadn't just woken up in time."
"I'm afraid it has been fed to the riverbank."
Xu Zhenggui let out a long sigh and weakly told what happened just now.
How could someone as smart as him not hear the complaint in Zhu Qingxiong's words just now?
The words are over.
Zhu Qingxiong's complexion suddenly changed in many ways.
Finally, he let out a long sigh. rough
Just when Xu and Zhu looked at each other speechless.
Suddenly, several government officials rushed towards the eastern section of the river embankment.
"Magistrate Zhu! Magistrate Zhu! It's not good! It's not good!"
"The gap in the eastern section is getting bigger and bigger!"
"I'm afraid it won't be long before the dam breaks!"
Several government officials rushed to Zhu Qingxiong and Xu Zhenggui in panic.
"Where's the vehicle?!"
"Can't the traffic be blocked?!"
Zhu Qingxiong's expression changed drastically when he heard this, and he quickly asked.
"There are still ten taels of donkey carts left!"
"No matter how hard the little ones drive me away."
"Those ten stubborn donkeys just refused to move forward."
"Several brothers were almost kicked to death by donkeys in order to drive away those ten stubborn donkeys."
The chief officer gritted his teeth and said. rough
"What about blindfolding?"
Zhu Qingxiong asked hurriedly.
"no."
"As soon as they were blindfolded, the stubborn donkeys began to bray and go crazy."
The leading yamen officer was full of anger and wanted to cry without tears.
"startled."
Zhu Qingxiong and Xu Zhenggui both had expressions of embarrassment upon hearing this. rough
If there are horses, even oxen and mules available.
Who would use those stubborn donkeys that are holding back and pushing back?
Just as the two were thinking hard about countermeasures.
Suddenly, there was a flurry of panicked noises not far away.
"Oops! The embankment has burst! Everyone, run away!"
"Where are you running! Come back to me quickly! You can still block it!"
"What a blockage! There aren't even stones! What kind of blockage is that?! Are you taking your life! My eldest and second brothers have already died of exhaustion on this embankment! Their bodies were also used to block the river embankment!"
"If I die again! Who will take care of my mother for us three brothers? You? Ah!"
"What a bastard! Your brother is so exhausted! How can I not be so exhausted!"
"Run! I'll see where you can go!"
"Okay! Stop making noise! Come here quickly! We can still block it!"
not far away.
Zhu Qingxiong and Xu Zhenggui secretly said, "It's broken!"
Then they all ran towards the east bank of the river in unison! rough
"Block...Block..."
"I...my officer...my officer Zhu Qingxiong!"
"My officer! I will block it with you!"
"Everyone...stop making noises!"
Zhu Qingxiong was out of breath, as if he might pass out at any time.
"And...and me!"
"I...I am Xu Zhenggui!"
"No...no rocks...if there are no rocks, everyone...just use their bodies to block..."
"I...I am with you...with you..."
The words are over.
Xu Zhenggui rushed towards the edge of the embankment breach.
"hand..
....Give me your hand! "
"Hurry...hurry!"
Xu Zhenggui and his party reached the edge, and then quickly spread out their hands, making a gesture to block the flood with their bodies. rough
The eastern section of the river embankment, which was originally full of noise, suddenly fell into dead silence.
"Quick! What are you doing standing still! If it's too late, we won't be able to stop it!"
Seeing that the people around him had not handed over their palms for a long time, Xu Zhenggui couldn't help but urge him again and again.
At this time, it was more than one step to break the embankment.
If it is controlled, there may still be some hope.
But if he hesitates any longer, he will definitely die without rebirth.
"Straight bitches! Magistrate Xu isn't afraid of us. What's there to be afraid of?"
"Magistrate Xu! Count me in!"
"Count me in too!"
"And I!"
"And I!"
After a brief moment of dead silence.
One after another, muddy figures rushed towards the breach of the embankment without hesitation.
But how can manpower resist the power of the rolling torrent? rough
Not long after.
The gap that was originally only one step widened to more than one foot.
And it is still expanding at lightning speed.
The rolling torrent rushed out of the gap like a wild beast.
Gradually, gradually.
The people around Xu Zhenggui were carried away one by one by the surging flood.
If it weren't for the people around him who would protect him with his life. rough
I'm afraid Xu Zhenggui has completely disappeared in the rolling torrent.
not far away.
Zhu Qingxiong, whose face was sickly red, angrily stabbed a black donkey into the neck with a waist knife.
As Zhu Qingxiong violently drew the knife.
A stream of bright red blood spurted out from the black donkey's neck instantly.
"Take...this beast...fill this beast into the river!"
"Come...someone will move...move the carriage shaft!"
Zhu Qingxiong didn't bother to wipe the blood stains on his face, and quickly ordered while panting.
For a while.
The huge eastern section of the river embankment is filled with a chilling atmosphere of despair.
Just when the first stubborn donkey was filled in the gap, it was washed away and disappeared after just a few breaths.
Suddenly there was the rumble of horse hooves outside the river embankment.
"Cao Xijiang! Immediately lead a thousand people to form a battle formation to block the water!"
"Ge Shaoxian! Immediately lead a thousand people to search for stones, wood, shafts and other objects!"
"Kang Yuan! Immediately lead a thousand people to search for sacks, shovels, pickaxes and other items to collect materials locally!"
Xu Yi rushed to the eastern section of the river embankment where the sound of water flow was the loudest.
Seeing the critical situation.
He immediately ordered in a deep voice without hesitation.
"Follow the order!"
Along with Xu Yi, military orders were issued quickly.
The more than three thousand soldiers in the king's camp were instantly divided into three. rough
"Your Highness, King Yan! Your Highness, King Yan, is here!"
"Quick! Help me to see His Highness King Yan!"
Not far away, Zhu Qingxiong, who was still venting his anger with his stubbornness, was shocked.
He immediately dropped the knife in his hand and walked tremblingly towards where Xu Yi was.
at the same time.
Thousands of soldiers from the king's camp formed a tight battle formation and headed straight towards the rolling flood.
