Xu An trembled and said: "Yes, yes, a section of the embankment has burst in the northeast. If not rescued in time, Fengyang City may be affected."
Wu Lang told him not to say anything, but he couldn't bear it anymore. So many people died when Fengyang Lake burst its embankment. If something happened to the Huaihe River again, he would be dead and no one could save him.
Niu Wuliu couldn't help but shudder when he thought of the raging river. To get here from Fengyang City, you have to cross the Donghao River. Fengyang Lake is in the northeast of Fengyang City.
Why is the water in Fengyang Lake so exaggerated? It’s because the northernmost corner of Fengyang Lake is next to the Huaihe River.
Zhu Jun guessed that it was probably caused by the backflow of water from the Huaihe River over there, but the situation was critical now and there was no way to investigate.
Because the rain has become lighter now, and the flood has not receded, it means that the water source has not been blocked.
Niu Wuliu glanced at Li Jiba.
Li Jiba sighed. Zhu Jun had rested for less than half an hour, but if he told Zhu Jun about such a big thing, he would definitely be punished when he woke up and found out.
He turned around and walked into the tent. Zhu Jun was sleeping soundly. He was shaken awake by Li Jiba. He opened his eyes tiredly and asked, "What's wrong?"
"Your Highness, a section of the Huaihe River has burst its banks!" Li Jiba said helplessly.
"What did you say?" Zhu Jun couldn't help but raise his voice, and he suddenly woke up. He sat up straight and wanted to get up, only to find that his hand was being held tightly by Xu Miaojin.
He carefully pulled out his hand without waking her up, and walked quickly outside the tent, looking at Xu An, who was slightly hunched over, with a sad and frightened face.
Seeing him made me even more scared.
"Your Highness, the Huaihe River has burst its banks!" Xu An was almost crying.
"Which section is it?" Zhu Jun asked hurriedly.
"Yes, it is the place where the Huaihe River and Donghao River meet!"
Zhu Jun hurriedly asked Li Jiba to spread out the map, and he was extremely anxious, "Can't it be blocked?"
"Weichen has been providing disaster relief here, and a large number of manpower has been mobilized. Over there..."
"Fuck you!" Zhu Jun kicked him angrily. Even at this time, this bitch was still blaming him.
"Ouch, ouch..." Xu An lay on the ground and kept shouting.
But Zhu Jun didn't feel any pity at all, because he really deserved to die.
The flooding has been going on for so many years. If he had done anything, how could he have caused the Huaihe River to burst?
Fengyang is a place surrounded by water.
There is only one opening for entry and exit.
Moreover, the terrain of Fengyang is truly bizarre.
There is a water bay in the north, mountains in the south, and plains in the middle. The high water flows inland without any obstruction.
Then Fengyang won’t be flooded?
"Your Highness, what should we do now?" Li Jiba asked.
"What else can we do? Leave three thousand people to continue searching here. The rest should follow me!" After two days of search and rescue, all those who could be saved have been saved, and there are not many survivors left.
Either that or a body floating on the surface.
Although it was cruel to say this, he had to make a choice.
"Niu Wuliu, you stay here and let Cai Guan, Xie Jin, and Li Qi cooperate with you. The others will follow me!"
Zhu Jun gave the order, and everyone responded one after another.
"You wait for me!" Zhu Jun is not a person who likes to say harsh words, but this time, he couldn't help it anymore, sneered at Xu An, and led people away directly.
Xu An couldn't help but tremble, "I don't want it either, I don't want it either..."
Xu Miaojin slept very soundly this time. When she opened her eyes, it was already afternoon.
Turning around, Zhu Jun was indeed gone.
She walked out of the tent, looked for someone and asked, "Where is Your Highness?"
"Back to Princess, Your Highness is going to the first two places to stay!"
Xu Miaojin didn't think much about it, but Zhu Jun didn't come back until the evening. She couldn't help but frowned, "Why haven't you come back yet?"
She walked out of the tent and looked again and again. Finally she couldn't hold it in any longer and found Niu Wuliu. "Old Niu, did he say he would be back today?"
"I don't know about this humble position!" Niu Wuliu still admired Xu Miaojin. No matter from every aspect, she was a very competent princess.
"Are you hiding something from me? I always feel like there's something wrong with you!"
"Princess must be too tired!" Niu Wuliu said with a bitter smile.
In fact, before Zhu Jun left, he gave an order not to allow others to tell Xu Miaojin to go to the front line for disaster relief.
After all, with Xu Miaojin's character, she will definitely follow him when the time comes.
You can keep it hidden for as long as you want.
Xu Miaojin nodded. She was indeed tired in the past two days, and she had been exposed to the rain and cold. Her head was a little dizzy. She touched her forehead and said, "Ah, I have a fever!"
She was shocked. She had a fever at this time. If Zhu Jun knew about it, he would definitely drive her away.
She put down her hands as if nothing had happened and decided to drink ginger soup that night!
On the other side, Zhu Jun has arrived at the front line.
The water is overflowing and pouring violently inland.
"Ms. Ganlin!"
Zhu Jun yelled, "Evacuate all the people nearby, hurry!"
It's getting dark, and the light of torches brings hope.
But Zhu Jun now has the desire to kill people. Fortunately, there are few people nearby, and Xu An is more thoughtful and moves away the people who are closer to the water.
The people in the city also spontaneously came to provide disaster relief, and the pressure on the Suzaku Army was greatly reduced.
By the time it gets dark, all the people have been transferred.
Zhu Jun's feet were trembling from exhaustion. That night, his feet were almost soaked in water, and his skin was soaked in water.
Wu Lang walked over tiredly, "Your Highness, let me leave the reinforcing of the dam to Wei Chen. Your Highness must pay attention to your health."
Zhu Jun said nothing, looking at the Suzaku Army who fell asleep on the bank, and immediately said: "The dam is getting higher every year, and the water rises every year. It seems that it is caused by the increase in silt in the river bed.
This only treats the symptoms but not the root cause. The only way is to wait until the flood subsides, clean the river bed, and then strengthen the dike. It will take decades or even hundreds of years to build a semi-permanent solid dike! "
Wu Lang smiled bitterly, "What His Highness is saying is that the imperial court does not allocate money, and with the supervision of Zhongdu, there is no way to spare manpower.
This time for disaster relief, almost half of the people in the city have been recruited. We can't let the people work in vain on an empty stomach, otherwise big trouble will happen! "
Zhu Jun smiled and said, "You don't need Wu Hou to worry about this matter!"
After saying that, he left directly.
He is not the same person as these people. If he doesn't torture these people to death, his surname will not be Zhu!
Sacks filled with sand and gravel were sent to the river embankment for reinforcement.
It was not until the fifth day of work that the gap in the Huaihe River was completely blocked, and the flooding water gradually receded.
Zhu Jun sat down on the ground and fought hard for five days and five nights, mobilizing nearly 100,000 people to completely overcome this flood.
Endless exhaustion swept over him, but Zhu Jun did not return to Zhongdu to sleep.
There will be a great epidemic after the flood, and epidemic prevention work must be done well, otherwise, Fengyang’s suffering is far from over!
