Governor please stay

Chapter 357

"Boom!"

The heavy rain in the summer night appeared every now and then, lightning flashed across the night sky, thunder rumbled, and the rain outside the house flowed down the eaves, forming a dense "water curtain".

On the big bed in the bedroom, Xiao Yujing, Princess of the Great Wall, forgot her identity and became an ordinary woman addicted to desire.She struggled, yelled, and indulged, but it didn't help. She could only sink and drift like a light boat, completely controlled by a certain man.

After a long time, when everything was over, Xiao Yuzheng fell asleep contentedly, snuggling into Liu Yishou's arms.

Looking out of the window like a ghost painting, the occasional flashes of lightning, Liu Yishou, who entered the "sage's time", thought not of love between men and women, but... After a severe drought, there will be a flood, and the Huaihe River may flood up!

It's not that Liu Yishou doesn't want to take care of it, but besides the few counties he took over before, the other states and counties have not collected data on the environment and hydrological conditions.In the case of black eyes, the best way to deal with it is to not deal with it temporarily, and save manpower and material resources to remedy the situation after it happens.

After many days of heavy rain, the water in Shaopi rose a lot, and gaps appeared in some places.The reason there was no dike breach was that the terrain here was already at the lowest point of the nearby states and counties, and there was nowhere to break the embankment.

The villagers in the Shouyang area spontaneously organized to block the gap in Shaopi, so the disaster here is not too serious. After all, Sun Shuao considered the function of flood control and water storage when he built Shaopi.But the surrounding states and counties may not have such good luck.

"My lord! My lord!"

Outside the door came the sound of Shikang knocking on the door.

"Alang, ignore him..."

Xiao Yuzhen turned over, and the blanket covered her fair body.Resting his head on Liu Yishou's arm, he muttered something.

"You can't ignore it, I'm watching the situation for your father now."

Liu Yishou said with a wry smile, hurriedly put on his clothes and went to open the door.I saw Yuan Shikang wearing a coir raincoat, covered in water, as if he had just been fished out of a pond.

"My lord, something is wrong, the vortex burst!"

Yuan Shikang said in a low voice.

Wokou, the confluence of Wohe River and Huaihe River, is close to Matou Shu.Before, Hu Sengyou led the county soldiers and Chen Baxian's direct line troops had a battle in Wokou.

The delta, where two rivers meet, is itself prone to flooding.In addition, the Dabie Mountains, where the Huaihe River and its upstream tributaries are located, suffer from severe soil erosion, resulting in frequent flooding of the Huaihe River.It is similar to the principle of the flooding of the Yellow River.

The reason for the formation is also because of excessive deforestation by humans, causing water and soil erosion in mountainous areas to flow into the Huaihe River.

"My lord, now that the Huaihe River is soaring, the waterway is no longer feasible. We can only go to the vortex by land. With such heavy rain, I'm afraid the road will be difficult and accidents will happen. It's better to wait until after dawn."

Yuan Shikang persuasively said.

"So you can't wait until dawn to tell me about it?"

Liu Yishou asked angrily.

"Returning to the lord, it is the subject's responsibility to let the lord know as soon as possible, but it is also the subject's responsibility to prevent the lord from being in danger. It is the duty of the subordinates to inform the lord, and it is also the duty to persuade the lord."

Out of the corner of Yuan Shikang's eyes, he saw a slim figure on the bed, and knew that he might have caused a catastrophe tonight.

"You are worthy of being the person who served Yuan Xu's side before."

Liu Yishou laughed, shook his head, and patted the other party's wet shoulder.

"Go and call Wang Wei and his gang to my study, and don't miss any of them. Even if you're having sex, drag them off the bed for me, saying that the military situation is urgent."

After Yuan Shikang left, Liu Yishou settled Xiao Yujin and asked her to sleep with his daughter, while he came to the study alone, staring at the big map hanging on the wall in a daze.

Many things, unless you pretend that nothing happened, otherwise under the influence of objective factors, the same thing will recur again and again no matter what dynasty it is, as if history is coming again.

Flood disasters in the Lianghuai area have always been a chronic disease of major feudal dynasties.It's just that the monarchs and ministers of many dynasties were drunk and dreamed, and they had scars on their bodies as if they didn't exist.

In Liu Yishou's previous life, there was no solution to this stubborn disease at first. It was not until the state came forward, spent a lot of effort, coordinated planning, and built an epoch-making water conservancy project, that the problem was solved from the root.

"Pishihang Irrigation Project, can it be done in this era?"

Liu Yishou was thoughtful, if it was carried out, there would be no need to question the strength of the country's foundation.

In fact, the major feudal dynasties did not build irrigation areas similar to the Pishihang project. On the surface, it was because the technology was not up to the mark, but in fact it was because the feudal dynasties were always only superficially unified and could not achieve refined rule.

Local interests are always higher than national interests.Under the constraints of local forces, no one is willing to make sacrifices, so in the end nothing can be done.

When later generations built the Pishihang Project, they didn't see much productivity, let alone high technology, after all, it wasn't long after the founding of the People's Republic of China.

Pishihang Irrigation District is the general name of the three adjacent irrigation districts of Pihe River, Shihe River and Hangbu River in Anhui Province and Meishan Irrigation District in Henan Province.In Xiao Yan's era, it would be a complex project spanning several states and more than a dozen counties.

The amount of construction in each county is actually not earth-shattering, and the things to be done are not complicated.But the problem is that this is a fuss about the river, and the area that the river flows needs to be treated. This can be compared to a certain large artery in a person. To repair this artery, it cannot be solved by cutting a piece of flesh.

From Beixincai County in Henan Province, to Shouyang County, and then to Hefei County in the south, the water storage and river channels in these places need to be coordinated to achieve the goal of radically flooding.Where there is no cooperation, the effect of the project will be greatly reduced.

However, even if Liu Yishou can mobilize several counties under his rule to cooperate in the construction, will those corrupt officials under Xiao Yan's rule cooperate?
It is already an act against the heavens to prevent them from taking fish from the pockets of the common people.Getting these people to cooperate in water conservancy repairs is simply as difficult as climbing the sky.

Of course, in order to fight wars, rulers are still willing to flood such "cost-effective" activities with water.Back then, Xiao Yan built the "Fushan Weir" in order to flood Shouyang, and then... except for the death of a lot of people, it had no effect.Those are not water conservancy projects.

Liu Yishou waited in the study for a while, and then Wang Wei, Chen Yuankang, Cui Xian, Yang Min and others came.

"The vortex broke the embankment. Although the water will not flood Shouyang, we are expected to be in trouble."

Liu Yishou said in a deep voice, upon hearing this, everyone's expressions changed, and they immediately felt relieved.Flooding in the Huaihe River and Huaihe River is nothing new. Not to mention anything else, after the establishment of the Liang Kingdom, there have been many disturbances, and it is really not worth making a fuss about.

"The Huaihe River system is converging, and the lakes are staggered, running through the east and west. It is really not easy to manage."

Chen Yuankang said calmly.

"After dawn, it's not too late to call the county soldiers to Weikou to check the situation." He made another stab.

"Yes, tomorrow I will ask Yuan Shikang to lead the troops to rescue, and I will go with me."

Liu Yishou nodded slightly, everything can only be discussed at dawn, and now it is raining heavily outside at night, nothing can be done.

"Many talents in states, counties and villages must leave their hometowns to make a new living. The recruiting center can promote more and attract talents from all sides. This is a good opportunity."

After all, Chen Yuankang did not forget the serious business.

"Okay, you can keep an eye on this matter."

"My lord, after the flood, there will be a great epidemic. It is urgent to send people to Jiankang to buy medicinal materials. Didn't the lord want to consume those copper and iron coins before, and this time it happened to be done together."

Wang Wei also spoke.

"This plan is very good. By the way, use the cloth in the treasury to collect private copper coins and iron coins, and post a notice that if they are not exchanged before the autumn harvest this year, the exchange will be prohibited in the future."

Liu Yishou made a decisive decision immediately.

"My lord, a lot of manpower is needed to fight the flood, and disaster relief is needed. Bodhisattva Xiao can't count on these."

Yang Min said softly.

Everyone nodded in unison, everyone knew Xiao Yan's virtues.When people die in bliss, Xiao Yan doesn't have much sympathy for the people.

"What do you think is better?"

Liu Yishou asked.

"Returning to the Lord, we will provide relief with work, and only include daily meals. Temporarily resettle the victims in Shouyang, compose them into trilogy by the way, and build new villages after breaking up the original areas. As for the affected counties, there will be no future." In the land of the master, the master can recruit immigrants with household registration under Xiao Yan's rule with favorable conditions.

As for the barren land affected by the disaster, why not just rest the fields?

My lord has the foresight to farm in Shaopi, and the grain and grass are enough to supply households in several prefectures.After the catastrophe, our power can penetrate the surrounding counties under Xiao Yan's rule. "

Fatty Yang's words are still very insightful, and he deserves to be an economical talent.

Liu Yishou patted him on the shoulder and said: "Zunyan (Yang Min's name)'s words won my heart. I will leave this matter to you. I will let Yang Zhong cooperate with you. It doesn't matter if you are a disobedient tyrant or a family. It can be dealt with in any way. When a natural disaster comes, I don’t mind killing some people and reducing man-made disasters.”

Hearing Liu Yishou's murderous words, everyone raised their hearts. Sure enough, my lord is like a night owl who enters the house in the middle of the night. When the opportunity comes, he will never let it go, and he will never return empty-handed.

Seeing that everyone has a task, but he is the only one watching, Cui Xian is also a little anxious.

"Ji Lun (Cui Xian's pronoun), you take Hu Luxian and the hundred people under his command to find all the temples under our jurisdiction, one by one.

The Buddha is merciful, the floods in the Huaihe River, the flood is merciless, and Buddhism has love.Let them, the monks who eat fast and chant Buddha on weekdays, give people and money.As for those penniless iron cocks, educate them and let them know what it means to be a monk and be compassionate. "

Liu Yishou smiled slightly, with an indescribable charm.

"Education? How to educate?"

Cui Xian looked puzzled.

"The flagpoles in the military have not been hung up for a long time, and they are very lonely. Occasionally, a few people are hung up to show the public, which not only punishes the bad guys, but also educates the masses. It is such an educational method."

Liu Yishou "explained" slowly.

understood!

The few people present exchanged glances, and they all understood.

If you want to hang the flagpole, you should have said it earlier, they are very familiar with these things!

……

The delta area where the vortex is located has been completely flooded.Matou Shu was also submerged by the flood, and one side of the rammed earth fortress had collapsed.But after the water receded, there was no flood in the city.

When Liu Yishou arrived with his men by land, the distance not far from Matoushu was already like a vast ocean.

"Chen Baxian built the dam on the upper reaches of the Piyuan River, and Xiao Ying failed to deal with the river embankment properly. They cannot escape the blame for the vortex bursting the embankment this time."

Seeing corpses floating everywhere in the water in the distance, Yuan Shikang said indignantly.Xiao Ying patted his ass and left, leaving Matou County in a mess. They were the ones who came to wipe his ass. It was really bad luck.

"The complaint must be filed with Xiao Yan, but now is not the time to talk about it."

Liu Yishou sighed softly, and said earnestly: "If we only aim at Fangzhen, we can continue to eat, drink and have fun while waiting for the crisis. Floods and so on are all the problems of the Liang court.

But... If you want to be the son of heaven, then the people in the world are all our fathers and children, how can we distinguish between our rule and Xiao Yan's rule? "

"The ambition of the lord is far behind that of the subordinates, and I am extremely ashamed."

Yuan Shikang cupped his hands in complete convincing and said.

"What do you want to do with such a high ambition? Are you planning to rebel?"

Liu Yishou teased.

Yuan Shikang blushed, not knowing how to answer this question.

"Okay, let's send people to take a boat to look around. There are many people with good water quality in the Lianghuai River, and there may be highlands nearby, and there may be survivors. We will search patiently and organize them to bring them back to Shouyang for resettlement. "

Yuan Shikang took the order and left.

Liu Yishou stood on the high wall of Matoushu, looked at Hongze outside, felt a little bit blocked, but felt the insignificance of manpower.

Man can conquer nature!These are the words that can only be shouted out with how much arrogant ambition in the heart!Liu Yishou feels that man will never be able to overcome the sky, but he also cannot live a day without doing anything.

"Pi Shihang, we have to fix it together. Even if Xiao Yan can't do it, someone has to do these things!"

He muttered to himself.

When it was almost dark, Yuan Shikang brought back many wet victims. When these people walked into the Matou Garrison, they all sat on the ground as if they were exhausted, and many of them cried loudly.Those who heard it were sad and those who saw it shed tears.

In a flood, they lost their land, lost some or even all of their family members, and their future was bleak. It felt better to be dead, at least it was all over and they didn't have to suffer anymore.

At this time, the dark clouds in the sky had dissipated, and the Ziwei Star (Polaris) in the due north direction appeared, shining brightly and looking very bright.

"Ziweixing raised his head, revealing his royal aura, this doesn't quite resemble the astrology of old Xiao Yan."

Wang Wei beside Liu Yishou muttered to himself.

"The stars light up the lights, illuminate the door of my house, and let the lost children find the way when they came.

The stars light up the lamps to illuminate my future, and warm the hearts of children with a little light. "

Familiar tunes and lyrics sounded in his ears, Liu Yishou smiled slightly and said to Wang Wei: "Let's go, let's visit those disaster victims."
