Kunshan Yaojiayan.

Lightning and thunder, heavy rainstorms, and it became dark in broad daylight.

The flood of floods came down from Taihu Lake, rushing all the way to Kunshan, fiercely hitting the embankment of Wusong River.

Amid the huge raging waves, Zhao Shouzheng stood on the crumbling river embankment wearing a rain poncho and leaning on a wooden stick, staring at the vast and boundless water surface in front of him.

"The entire Kunnan has become a lake." Mr. Zhao finally deeply realized what the power of heaven and earth is. "The water level is at least one person higher than when I took office."

"It's also a blessing that Kunnan has discharged the flood, otherwise our earthen embankment would not be able to resist it at all." Zheng Ruozeng stood beside Zhao Shouzheng with a straw raincoat and a wooden stick, under the support of his son.

"But if the adults had not mobilized the whole county in time to strengthen the river embankment, it would have been today!"

"Unless you can persist until the summer harvest, it's meaningless!" Zhao Shouzheng's official robe was covered with mud, wearing a pair of big shorts inside, and barefoot on the wooden clogs. He looked so embarrassed.

Zheng Ruozeng was not much better than him, his whole body was covered in mud and he was no longer like a human being.

On this muddy river embankment, even if you are wearing wooden clogs and someone is supporting you, it is common to fall.

Behind the two, above and below the dike, countless Kunshan people were carrying sandbags and earth baskets, tirelessly strengthening the defense line.

The sound of shouting and yelling are hard to tell from the sound of water.

Although it was raining heavily, although the feet were muddy, and they were exhausted, everyone gritted their teeth and persevered.

It will take half a month to harvest the summer. If the dam collapses at this time, all previous efforts will be wasted!

The results of tens of thousands of people's hard work are also obvious. The original embankment line has long been destroyed by floods.

But the river embankment built by more than 100,000 sandbags and more than 100,000 baskets of sand and soil is nearly one meter taller than before, and is wider and stronger. Most river sections can withstand the test of floods.

But the flood always breaks the surface with points and does not engage in egalitarianism with you. In several important sections of the embankment, the danger is still very serious!

Yaojiayan, guarded by Bai Zhubu and Gu Dadong, was the first major turn after the Wusong River entered Kunshan.

The river channel is curved at sharp angles and the water flow is extremely fast. It is one of the important dangerous sections of the entire Wusong River and the first section of the four major dangerous sections in Kunshan County.

Zhao Shouzheng and Zheng Ruozengzheng were inspecting the river embankment, and they received an emergency from the two, saying that there was a dangerous situation in Yaojiayan!

He quickly named Zheng Qian, the reserve captain, and led two thousand civilians to come quickly to reinforce.

Mr. Zhao was still worried and handed over the defense of Nanshan Temple to Zheng Ruozeng and Xu Wei, and brought another 500 people to check.

When he got off the horse's back, he pulled it down to the river embankment and saw that at the bend of the river water that was most violently impacted, the bamboo and wooden guardrails on the outside had already disappeared.

The corner where the key thickened was already thickened, a big hole about a foot wide was taken out by the flood!

The people who were rescued from disasters tried their best to throw the sandbag into the hole, but when so many sandbags were left, they were like throwing a handful of beans, and they were washed away by the torrent in a blink of an eye.

Seeing that no matter how to save the danger, Bai Zhuan sat on the ground.

"The power of heaven and earth cannot be resisted by human power..."

Zhao Shouzheng and Gu Dadong's eyes also dimmed, and the three of them knew that the collapse of the dike was not far away.

Gu Dadong looked back at his son Gu Guishou and whispered to him to go back and see if there was no one in the town.

The Gu family's ancestral property is in Gujia Town, less than five miles north of Yaojiayan.

Once the dam breaks, you can flood the town without the time of a meal.

Gu Guishou hurriedly ran down the dike and almost collided with someone.

"Is there no way?" Looking at the big hole that had expanded to ten and a half feet, Zhao Shouzheng looked at the sky in despair.

‘Son, help me…’

"Don't throw the sandbag!"

Just as Master Zhao, who looked up at the sky, finished praying, he heard a confident voice, saying from a distance to a near:

"Fill the basket with stones and lift it up to the embankment, and then string the baskets together with bamboo poles and throw them down!"

Mr. Zhao wiped the rain on his face and saw that the person who spoke was a middle-aged man in his forties or fifties, who was walking on the ground and climbing the dike.

Wu Chengen accompanied the man and also went up the dike and explained to Zhao Shouzheng:

"This is Pan Zhongcheng, who is a native of Wucheng County. He heard that the flood situation in this county is in urgent need of the emergency, so he came to help!"

"Oh, Premier Pan!" Zhao Shouzheng and Gu Dadong heard this, as if they saw a savior, quickly came forward to worship the big gift.

"I don't have time to be polite, so hurry up and do as I do!" Premier Pan shouted, not slandering at all. "There is no one in Kunshan County who knows what you know, so you can make trouble?"

Zhao Shouzheng did not think it was offended at all. Instead, he seemed to have a backbone and asked Bai Zhuan to do as soon as possible.

Because this person is the river Prime Minister Pan Jixun, the ten times more violent Yellow River can obediently tame Pan Jixun in his hands!

No one in the world knows better about water control than him!

"Don't so many people are crowded on the dike. Like a headless fly, it's useless and inappropriate!" Pan Jixun gave the second order:

"Split half of the people and build a moon dike outside the embankment in case!"

"Drop down the nearby houses immediately. I want twenty wooden beams!" Pan Jixun issued the third order to Gu Dadong. "The bricks and stones are all shipped!"

"Oh, okay!" Gu Dadong responded and hurried to do it himself.

"Then what am I doing?" asked Zhao Shouzheng, wearing big shorts.

"Stand up to the side, don't get in the way." Pan Jixun glanced at him and went straight to command the rescue.

"The Pan Zhongcheng invited by Mr., I have made a great contribution!" Mr. Zhao smacked his lips and immediately smiled at Wu Chengen and said, "By the way, Pan Zhongcheng's family is in Wucheng, and it is a neighboring county with Changxing."

"It was not invited by me." Wu Chengen shook his head and said, "It's true that the two counties are adjacent. If he was not over the past year, he returned to his hometown. I have been in jail, so I have never met him."

"Then how did he come?" Zhao Erye asked curiously: "There is a Jiaxing Mansion between Huzhou Prefecture and Suzhou Prefecture."

"When he comes, he will look for the young master." Wu Chengen whispered: "I asked me to accompany him to the dike when he sees the young master is not here."

"So monkey...oh no, the reinforcements I brought in..." Mr. Zhao shed tears of happiness.

I'm afraid I'm not reincarnated by a good man of ten generations?

Otherwise, how could you give birth to such a blessing and a baby son who will help you no matter where you encounter difficulties?

"I don't know how the young master tricked Pan Zhongcheng." Wu Chengen muttered, and he was so busy that he wanted to go back to jail these days.

"What do you care about him? As long as someone comes, I care whether he cheated or tied up?" Zhao Erye laughed and said, "I finally got up and down in my heart!"
