Chapter 86 Flood
A wave of unrest, a wave of up again.

Even greater panic quickly spread throughout the city as a fast horse entered the city.

"Female Sir, Commander Li ordered the officers and soldiers of the Qin Army to protect the embankment!"

what? !

Many fish and other people looked extremely ugly.

The flood season of the Yangtze River is from late June to September. According to the calendar, it should be from late May to August at this time.

It's not spring yet, how can there be floods? !

"God's punishment! This must be God's punishment!"

"The female monarch dug a mountain and dug a well, which angered the mountain god!" This is the Li family, one of the powerful people in Bashu. They occupy the main trade route between Bashu and the outside world, and salt is the main profit.

Many fish act assertively and say what they say.

The Li family didn't want to get into trouble, so they stayed quietly until the opportunity finally came, and then they added fuel to the flames, turning the people's fear of the flood into resentment against the female queen.

Coinciding with the Li family is Samoko in Jiulong Mountain.

"The people of Qin and Laogou have angered the Supreme God, and the sky sent a great flood to punish us. Only pious sacrifices can extinguish the anger of the Supreme God!"

Many tribes in Jiulong Mountain panicked and gave away the food they had finally traded, and even handed over the most beautiful girls and the strongest boys in the tribe.

"God, we know we were wrong. Please forgive us once, and please take back the sea in the sky."

"God, this has nothing to do with us, it's all the fault of the old dig department!"

"That's right! Burn the old dig department to death!"

Shamoko did not ask for a sacrifice immediately. The flood disaster could not be solved in one day. If there was no change after the sacrifice, wouldn't it affect his reputation as a high priest?
Samoko looked at Fucheng proudly, "The weather is with me, girl, what else can you do to deal with it?"
Many fish, who were regarded as powerful enemies by Shamoko, had no time to pay attention to the gossip in the city. They only sent a group of Qin soldiers to maintain public order in the city, and then called the post soldiers to inquire about the situation.

"What did Governor Li explain?"

The post soldiers were running day and night, and just after a bowl of chestnut porridge, they seemed to come to life again: "There was a flood in the Minjiang River, and Commander Li led the crowd to fight the flood on the dam. Two groups were dispatched to notify the county captain and the queen for help."

Minjiang?

Hu Feizi brought the water map collected by the Mohists. It took two generations to measure it step by step with their own feet. It was extremely precious.

The Chengdu Plain belongs to the Mintuo River system of the Yangtze River Basin. The devastating floods it encounters mainly originate from the Minjiang River, Tuojiang River, Dadu River, and Qingyi River.

On the water map, the Minjiang River system is marked boldly, and there is a text note next to it: Hanging River.

The Minjiang River flows from the Western Sichuan Plateau to the Sichuan Basin. Due to the difference in altitude, the Minjiang River actually becomes a hanging river with a height of more than 270 meters!

The Kaifeng section of the Yellow River is also a hanging river, but the gap is not as big as that of the Minjiang River.

If the Minjiang River, which has abundant water, bursts near Dujiangyan, Chengdu, not far away, will be severely threatened by floods.

Li Bing's main task in coming to Bashu this time is to deal with the Minjiang River problem.

Many Fish: "How many more available soldiers are there in the mansion?"

Wang Jian: "Less than 100."

Many fish frowned. In ancient times, large-scale corvee services relied on garrisoning troops in addition to recruiting civilians.

"On the other side of the county lieutenant, we still need to station troops to guard against Chu." Many fish hesitated, why not give up Jiulong Mountain and withdraw most of the troops?

However, even if all were withdrawn, it would only amount to 400, which was not worth mentioning in the face of natural disasters.

At this time, the local magpie asked for an audience: "Nvjun, there will be disasters after the flood epidemic. Please send people to take precautions early."

……

Many fish also want to take precautions, but no one is there now.

In line with the principle of casting a wide net, many fish asked: "Magpie, you grew up in Bashu, do you know anything about floods?"

After thinking for a moment, Que finally revealed a piece of news: "I once heard the elders in the village say that the floods in Bashu did not spread all over the country. Sometimes when my hometown is flooded, other areas are hit by drought."

? ?
How strange is this?Many fish have only heard from Li Bing that the land of Bashu is difficult and will cause flooding when there is sufficient water.When water is scarce, there will be drought.

"In your opinion, will this flood spread to Fucheng and Jiulong Mountain?" Many fish thought.

Que Haoran lowered his head and said apologetically: "I am only good at medicine, not water treatment."

Many fish came to their senses, yes, who can be better than Li Bing in controlling water in Bashu?
Since he sent someone to ask for help, it means that the situation is extremely urgent.

The water conservancy officials in the mansion were all taken away by Li Bing, and many fish had to offer heavy rewards to those who were good at water conservancy. They didn't seek surprises to be stunning, but they wanted to be able to understand the current water situation.

Under the heavy gold, there must be a brave man.

Indeed, a farmer came to offer the reward. The farmer saw the key point at a glance: "The county guard wants to guard the dike so that the city will not be endangered. If the flood is severe, the flood can only be released."

"Will the direction of the flood discharge affect Jiulong Mountain?"

"meeting."

There are many fish with signs of struggle on their faces. How to choose?

Countless figures appear in my mind. In my previous life, I was born in a flood-prone province and suffered a once-in-a-century flood.

It is those respectable people who risk their lives and fight against disasters, so that they can grow up safely.

"Wang Jian, you immediately lead your troops to support the county guard!"

"Here!"

"Black Dolphin, you lead a group of people with me to visit Haoqiang." Many fish wiped their faces with their hands, no longer hesitant, replaced by determination and no regrets.

When many fish and black dolphins appeared on the streets of Fuzhong, people loudly encouraged people to voluntarily fight against the floods.

"The people of Qin and Ba are united in their hearts, fighting against the heaven and the earth with the sun and the moon!"

"Fight the flood monsters, exterminate the flood monsters, and your family will be safe!"

Some people can understand it, some can't.

If there is not enough manpower, corvee labor can only be imposed on a large scale.

As for the powerful people in the city, if they take the initiative to help, many fish will record them in the book. After the matter is settled, they will discuss their merits and reward them.

As for the incompatibility...

"Copy!" Black Dolphin led a group of soldiers into the powerful man's home, confiscated supplies, and tied up many slaves and family members.

"Female Sir, may I ask what crime we have committed?"

The owner of the house had red eyes and glared at the many fish.

"Someone has reported you, and you want to rebel!" Many fish didn't look at it and were ready to go directly to the next house.

The head of the family sneered: "Even if someone reports someone, according to the "Qin Law"..."

Before the owner could finish speaking, the soldiers blocked his mouth with dirty linen cloth. He could only whine and stare at the many fish angrily.

The eldest son of the family leader was dissatisfied with Aweng being treated like this, and angrily wanted to come forward to argue.

Black Dolphin stepped forward and chopped off the eldest son's head with a knife.

The dazzling blood made the women scream repeatedly, and some even fainted.

The head of the family's eyes were about to burst, but he was restrained and unable to move.

Many fish looked around with cold eyes.

The person who was hiding outside the wall and peeping was swept away by this sight, his two legs trembled, and his whole body trembled.

Many fish seemed to be talking to the owner of the house, and also seemed to be saying to the onlookers: "There are no eggs left in the overturned nest. Floods can destroy the people of Ba, and the common people of Qin can also destroy the powerful. All the people of Bashu, honor and disgrace Together, we depend on each other for life and death.”
