The Vicious Fat Wife Dressed as a Disabled General

Chapter 420 Help Strengthen the Dam
Not long after Jiang Zhinuan left on horseback, it started to rain heavily.

Although Ding Simiao was worried, there was nothing he could do at the moment, so he could only wear coir raincoats and help his mother-in-law to report to the village chief's house.

But the head of Qitai Village, like her mother-in-law, did not believe that the water would rise in June.

"Young man, stop making trouble, this matter is not a joke."

"Village chief, believe me. My aunt said that the water will rise, and the water will definitely rise. If you arrange people to go to the upstream villages immediately, some villages must have been affected by the disaster."

The village chief was very angry: "Nonsense! It's not the flood season yet, but after a few rains, you're clamoring for a flood. Where are you from? Come to make trouble here."

Ding Simiao saw that he couldn't convince the village chief, and was worried about Jiang Zhinuan who had already reported to the downstream.

He could only take out the money bag that Jiang Zhinuan left him in his arms: "Village chief, if there is no water, everyone is well. If there is water, and there is no timely rescue, many innocent people will be killed or injured. If this is the case, I will pay for it." Money! I will pay the village chief to arrange for people to go to the downstream village to help strengthen the embankment, and I will pay and ask the village chief to arrange for people to go to the upstream village chief to check!"

pay?

Now the village chief put away his angry appearance just now, and turned to look at his mother-in-law.

The mother-in-law was helpless: "The village head, why don't you arrange someone to go and see it? It's not a trivial matter to get wet. The girl who was with him has already rode a horse to the downstream village to report the news. It doesn't look like nonsense."

The village chief sized Ding Simiao up again, and finally agreed: "Success, I'll arrange someone right away!"

There are two fast horses in Qitai Village. The village chief asked his son to gallop to the upstream village to investigate the situation in the heavy rain.

The village chief rushed to the river with some young adults in the village.

When he saw the muddy water of the river and the faint roaring sound from the upper reaches, the village chief finally realized the seriousness of the matter.

"Hurry up, call everyone who can work at home to the river, and immediately strengthen the dam!"

Although Qitai Village is farther away from the river, when the water rises every year, the embankment must be reinforced and raised, otherwise the water will overflow into the village.

Ding Simiao was worried about Jiang Zhinuan, so he had to follow Qitai Village to build the dam first. After the dam in their village was strengthened, the village head would take people to the downstream villages to help.

Right now, I just hope that other downstream villages can believe Jiang Zhinuan's words and start preparing.

As long as they can work, more than 100 people in the village rushed to the embankment in the rain, and everyone piled bags of sandbags on the embankment together.

For about an hour or so, the water in the river became visibly fiercer than before.

The village head looked at the turbid and rushing river, and felt something was wrong in his heart.

In previous years, there was not such a big battle for flooding. This year, the flood is so fierce that the downstream villages are in great danger!
Just when the village chief was about to send out half of the people to help downstream, the village chief's son rode back on a fast horse: "Father! Father is not good!"

"What's wrong? Tell me!"

"The upstream Dazui Village encountered a flood peak, and the whole village was surrounded by floodwaters!"

As soon as these words came out, everyone was shocked: "Where is the next village?"

"The other villages are fine. I have notified them one by one. They are already reinforcing the dams."

The upper reaches of the village can be surrounded, one can imagine how fierce the river is.

With a wave of the village chief's hand, about [-] people remained in his village to continue strengthening the dam, and the rest followed him downstream to help.

Qitai Village has the best geographical location among the nearby villages. If their village is also crossed by Hong Feng, other villages don't have to think about it.

Now the embankment of the village has been raised by more than two meters, and it is enough to leave some people to continue to reinforce it.

When Ding Simiao heard that he was going downstream, he quickly followed the village chief, "I'm going too!"

"No, the downstream villages are very dangerous now. Our Qitai Village is currently the safest. You are a boy, just stay here!"

Ding Simiao was very determined, Jiang Zhinuan had already gone downstream, and he had to make sure of her safety.

No matter how the village head persuaded him, he insisted on going with him.

The village chief didn't dare to waste time, so he could only let him follow. Fortunately, the neighboring villages had already received Jiang Zhinuan's notice and arranged for people to strengthen the dams in the village.

The most important thing right now is Sanzao Village and Baiming Village, the most downstream villages.

All the way, there were seven or eight villages, and each village only left some people to strengthen the dams of their own villages. Others, a mighty 500 people, rushed to Sanzao Village and Baiming Village for support.

Ding Simiao found Jiang Zhinuan on the embankment of Baiming Village.

At that time, her whole body was already soaked, and she was dragging sandbags with the people in the village.

Seeing how pale her face was, Ding Simiao dragged his coat and put it on Jiang Zhinuan's body. In the heavy rain, his clothes were soaked by the rain, but it always felt like an extra layer of clothes would make Jiang Zhinuan feel more comfortable. It's warmer.

"Amiao, how's the situation?"

"It is said that some upstream villages have been surrounded by floods, and the village chiefs of each village have brought people to help, auntie, you have just caught the wind and cold, and you are not yet in shape, you should go back and find a place to shelter from the rain. "

Jiang Zhinuan turned around and saw more than 200 people joining the team to strengthen the embankment.

With so many people around, she felt relieved a lot.

However, Jiang Zhinuan climbed to the highest point to see the water potential, and the water level seemed to have risen to the original height of the embankment.

Seeing that the river was becoming more and more fierce, Jiang Zhinuan was worried that the dam would not be able to stop him, so he turned around and went down the dyke to find the village head of Baiming Village.

"Village chief, the water situation is not optimistic. I suggest that the elderly and children in the village be moved to a safe place first. If the water situation cannot hold back, everyone must evacuate in time. Life-saving is the most important thing!"

The village chief is 50 years old. He said bluntly that he has never seen such a swift and violent water at such a young age. Naturally, human life is the most important right now. If it can't be stopped, at least the safety of the villagers must be ensured.

Ding Simiao begged Jiang Zhinuan to evacuate with everyone, but Jiang Zhinuan refused to leave, and returned to the embankment to help pull the sandbags.

"Auntie, your body can't hold on!"

"A Miao, you evacuate with them, you must be safe."

Even at this time, Jiang Zhinuan still emphasized that Ding Simiao must be safe, but she didn't take her own safety at all.

"Auntie, if something happens to you, how can I explain it to Uncle? An Bao and Ning Bao are still waiting for you at home!"

Jiang Zhinuan froze for a moment, then looked at the others. There were many women carrying sandbags in the rain. They all gritted their teeth and worked hard to protect their homeland.

It stands to reason that Jiang Zhinuan has done enough and notified everyone, but right now, she really can't lift her feet if she is asked to leave.

"Amiao, don't worry, I know in my heart, if the dam can't be stopped, I will withdraw it as soon as possible, and now one more person will give more strength."

Ding Simiao had no choice but to move the sandbags together: "Then I will stay too, and I will be with my aunt."

The rain has no tendency to slow down, and the rumbling thunder is getting closer and closer. It's only afternoon, and it's already getting dark.

However, there are many people and strength, and the downstream villages have sufficient sandbags all year round. The current situation has been brought under control.

The embankment was also piled up to a height of four or five meters. The village chief yelled to let the women and the elderly go back, leaving only some young people to guard.

When Ding Simiao heard this, he hurried to look for Jiang Zhinuan, and when he turned around, he found that she had fallen headfirst into the mud and passed out.
