If the breach is just a problem, it will be no big deal, at most it will flood several counties.

But if you change the route, the trouble will be great...

"Is there really no way for you?" Liu Shengzhi asked.

Many officials from the Ministry of Works expressed shame and did not speak. In this era, the Yellow River was not seriously plagued.

If it had been after the Song Dynasty, especially during the Ming and Qing Dynasties, the floods of the Yellow River had become one of the top priorities that the court had attached the most... There were specialized river management yamen...

Now, the great man who had just established his country did not even have an official who was proficient in water conservancy and knew how to govern the country.

In the midst of silence, Liu Shengzhi suddenly spoke and said, "Since you don't speak, I have a way..."

He said, smiled coldly, and drew a hard stroke on the map, but his tone was very plain: "Dig the embankment here..."

"Ah!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this. They never thought that everyone was working hard to strengthen the river embankment, but Liu Shengzhi was actually trying to dig the river embankment, which no one could have imagined.

Only Bu Pengpeng didn't blink for a moment, but he only understood Liu Shengzhi's meaning, which was to solve the problem once and for all, and to completely resolve the problem!

Seeing the crowd of people shocked at this moment, Bu Pengpeng calmed down and said, "I have thought about the way your Majesty said..."

"In ancient times, there were several rivers on the Yellow River entering the sea, so that the classics were known as the Nine Rivers, and there was no major troubles in the river at that time...

But in the Warring States Period, all countries along the river blocked all rivers and benefited themselves..."

From the fifth year of King Ding of Zhou, floods seized the river from Suxukou and traveled eastward to Luochuan. They diverted from Luochuan to Changshoujin, merged with Zhanghe in the north, and entered the sea in Zhangwu. Since the first large-scale diverting flood...

For more than 2,600 years, the lower reaches of the Yellow River have experienced a large cycle of swinging from north to south, from south to north. There are countless breaks and diversions...

It can be said that the reason why the Yellow River floods are so frequent and severe is mostly due to man-made reasons.

In short, during this period, due to the unbuilt embankments in the lower reaches of the Yellow River, the river channels were unrestricted, and the flow was unstable, and multiple river channels coexisted.

If the Yellow River does not have a fixed river channel, at least three or more river channels enter the sea, so the water flows smoothly at that time and there is no major disaster.

However, in the middle of the Warring States Period, all countries were beggaring their neighbors and wanted to enjoy water conservancy and avoid water damage, so they began to build large embankments in their own country...

Qi State on the Yellow River and Zhao and Wei State on the opposite side competed to raise the Yellow River embankment. However, at that time, the width of the embankment on both sides was fifty Hanli, which was equivalent to more than forty miles now...

At that time, the river channel was so wide that the Yellow River would certainly not flood. Such a wide river channel was enough to flow at will.

However, in the future, the growth of the teeth became more and more abundant. The large scattered beaches were reclaimed on both sides of the river trough in the embankment, and civilians were built to defend themselves. The distance was several miles away from the water, while the nearest was only a few hundred steps.

The riverbed was so tight that the riverbed was tangled, and the river body was curved. The silt was high and rapid, and dangerous situations emerged one after another. At the end of the Western Han Dynasty, the river channel in Junxian, Henan Province was higher than the plain, and it was obviously a hanging river.

This begins to kick off the two thousand years of flooding in the Yellow River!

The river disasters in the Western Han Dynasty were severe in the past, and there were ten large-scale overflows and diversions recorded in the literature.

Until the Ming Dynasty of the Eastern Han Dynasty, Wang Jing carried out a comprehensive management of the river water flowing in the late Western Han Dynasty. Through dredging and obstructing, intercepting bends and straightening, building embankments and water gates, a new road was opened.

This new Yellow River channel line is straight, which is conducive to the erosion of silt and sand, and the accumulation of silt is slow. Moreover, there were many branches in the lower reaches of the Yellow River at that time, either entering the sea alone or flowing into other rivers. It plays a role in diversion and discharging sand, so the river channel is stable...

So much so that there was no major flood in the Yellow River during the late Eastern Han Dynasty to the late Tang Dynasty.

Of course, this is in another space-time trajectory. As we see, in this space-time trajectory, there will be a large-scale flood.

At this time, Liu Shengzhi drew a random stroke on the map, which meant that he wanted to artificially break the Yellow River again to change the route...

Therefore, everyone was so shocked when they saw it!

"Your Majesty, in fact, Wang Jingzhi River is already quite good. It has been three or four hundred years now, and the river has no major troubles... It seems that there is no need to open up a new river channel here."

Bu Pengpeng had to remind Liu Shengzhi carefully that Wang Jingzhi was the best solution, so he had to manage until the end of the Tang Dynasty.

However, the Yellow River has too much mud and sand. After nearly a thousand years of accumulation, the estuary section of the lower reaches of the Yellow River has gradually become silted by the end of the Tang Dynasty. Today, Shandong Shanghe, Huimin, and Binzhou City and County Rivers are almost 100 meters tall, making it a land hanging river. Finally, it was silted and blocked...

It is already very good to be able to manage a project for thousands of years. No matter how much Liu Shengzhi changes it now, he may not have a better plan!

But when Liu Shengzhi heard this, he smiled faintly: "Where did I say I wanted to open another river? I wanted to build a big lake here!"

"Ah!" Everyone was shocked when they heard this. The place Liu Shengzhi had just drawn on the map was in Puyang.

"Then isn't there Lei Ze nearby?"

Unlike later generations, in this era, that place was extremely abundant in water. It was known as the four lakes and eight waters!

There are Heze, Leize, Dayeze, Mengzhuze and other large lakes, and the famous rivers are Jishui, Pu River, Jushui, Yongshui, Heshui and Bian River, Huangzhi River, Mishui. Leize alone has an area of ​​more than 100 miles, and Dayeze is more than 300 miles... These lakes and rivers are crisscrossed into large swamps and wetlands...

These lakes and tributary water systems can help the Yellow River store floods like capillaries, etc.

This is also a very important reason why Wang Jingzhihe was able to manage for thousands of years!

Liu Shengzhi smiled coldly: "That's right, I want to create another thousand-mile lake in the east of the Yellow River..."

Everyone was shocked, but Bu Pengpeng showed a thoughtful expression and said for a long time: "This is also feasible... As long as this lake exists, it can help the Yellow River divert and accumulate water, and the flood will be even less..."

If Liu Shengzhi had said such shocking words in another era, he would have been regarded as crazy by his subordinates!

You know, where did Liu Sheng cut his sword?

This is the land of the East County, the country's fertile land, with many household registrations, and outstanding people...

It is no joke that before the Southern Song Dynasty, this place was definitely the most important place in Middle Earth.
