A rope, connected to more than a dozen people, was holding hands, and saw a solid wall, turbid current, all blocking the outside.

The thousands of people on the embankment were all focused on one person at this moment. Tears were flowing, and more and more people knelt on the ground regardless of the mud and water under them, brushing a large area in one go.

"Mr., we will listen to you in our lifetime!"

With heavy kowtows, countless young and strong people climbed up, carrying sand and gravel towards the gap as if they were desperate.

At this time, Pan Yueshan also hurriedly ordered: "Hurry, get down the wooden railing!"

While speaking, more than a dozen soldiers ran over with the tied wooden railings. They all put the wooden railings together, then waved the hammer and smashed the wooden railings deeply into the embankment. Three wooden railings were smashed in in a row. With the foot of the pile, the military and civilians quickly filled the gap with sand and gravel.

If there is not enough sandbag, use a washbasin and hands to carry the stones over and throw them into the turbid current.

"I'm not afraid of you if you dare to spread it anymore!"

"Defeat you, beat you to death!"

The military and civilians regarded the surging Yellow River as their biggest enemy, desperately threw out all the weapons in their hands, gritted their teeth, and cursed fiercely this river that brought countless disasters to everyone.

Gu Zhenhua and the soldiers had been soaked in the water for half an hour. The cold river water quickly took away the physical strength. Gu Zhenhua felt like a leaf, floating back and forth in the water.

In fact, he knew that doing this was a bit reckless, and he might be able to shoot a big wave. He would lose any grand career, but Gu Zhenhua just felt a stubborn spirit. He either just ignored it. Once he made a decision, he had to fight to the end and give up halfway. That was nothing man!

Of course, he is not afraid of saying that he acts, so what if he acts? If he can act for a lifetime, what is the difference between true and false!

"Hurry up, don't let go!"

Gu Zhenhua held the hands of the soldiers beside him tightly. The others also held onto each other tightly, like an indestructible city wall. No matter how storm, everyone was like a reef on the shore. They stood still and stood up!

"Don't worry, we can all hold on."

"Yes, hold on. We are not afraid of the Yellow River. If we meet Tartars in the future, I think who will dare to be a coward!" Gu Zhenhua laughed loudly.

"National Duke, follow you, we will never be cowards!"

"Don't be a coward!"

The people on the dike also shouted, more and more sand and gravel were sent. The big guy ignored the bleeding of his shoulders and his hands and feet, and the bloody sand and gravel finally blocked the gap.

"Mr. OK, come up quickly."

With the help of soldiers on the shore, soldiers climbed up from the turbid current, and when they arrived at the embankment, they collapsed on the ground, trembling all over, and exhausted their energy.

Suddenly, when a soldier was climbing up, he had exhausted all his strength. When he loosened his hands, he suddenly fell into the rolling river.

Gu Zhenhua, who was still in the water, hurriedly reached out, but a big wave came over. When the waves passed, the soldier had floated more than ten meters away. He waved his arms a few times, and could not see his head.

"Hey! Why are you still standing there? Go downstream to save people!"

Gu Zhenhua shouted loudly, and the soldiers on the embankment also hurried over. Gu Zhenhua climbed the rope and finally climbed onto the shore. He sat on the shore with his butt, gasping for breath.

Li Xu beside him grinned even more, and his facial features were twitching.

"Second brother, he has a good expression!"

"What other jokes are you telling? Didn't you see me cramping?"

After a long time, Li Xu changed over. His forehead was covered with white sweat. He and Gu Zhenhua rested on their backs. Li Xu said in a slight voice: "My Duke, go back, you will be able to do it, but don't fight like this. The son of a daughter cannot sit in the hall."

Gu Zhenhua also smiled bitterly: "You think I am willing to fight. After so many years, the people are scared by the tricks of being officials. If you don't show your sincerity, how can you convince others?"

While talking, a scent of fragrance came from afar. Many women carried straw hats and wooden buckets of food, and brought food. The soldiers did not dare to be careless. Many people grabbed steamed buns and brought them into their stomachs in the rain. While eating, they had to patrol the embankment to eliminate danger.

I didn't swallow a bite of steamed bun, but suddenly there was a leak and I was about to rush forward. I didn't know when to eat the next bite of rice. Everyone was covered in mud and in a mess.

But among these women who delivered food, tears gushed out from the corners of their eyes. This is the case with the piano rhyme, and pearl-like tears rolled over their cheeks.

She only remembers that when she was eight years old, her family suffered floods and her parents were washed away. She survived by luck and was sent to the Qinhuai River by human traffickers. After years of training, poetry, songs, music, calligraphy and painting, and all kinds of things were excellent. Among the singers, she was also the best beauty.

How many princes have fallen to her, how many scholars and talented scholars have written love poems and given gifts to her, and even the famous four young masters of Fushe are no exception.

The prosperity will eventually pass, Donglin is destroyed and the Fushe is gone, and she is also redeemed by An** and sent to the front line to marry those vulgar soldiers.

Qin Yun was unhappy in her heart. What a character she was. How could a vulgar and rude man deserve her this time? How could she live a hard life if she was used to enjoying luxury and food? What's more, who knows when the soldiers will die in the battlefield. Do you have to be in vain?

Qin Yun had already hidden a pair of scissors by her side. When she got married, she committed suicide and would never be nostalgic for her boring life.

But now, she suddenly felt how shallow she was. Her poems and songs could not withstand the surging rivers, and her wealth and wealth were not as good as a solid chest. If there were such soldiers back then, who worked hard to save disasters, maybe her parents could still be by her side. The family enjoyed the joy of family, so why bother selling laughter to make a living?

In the blink of an eye, these vulgar warriors are much more cute. They are steady and solid. If they can fight for something, they can truly protect their wives. Compared with the fickle noble son, this may be the true destination of their lives.

Thinking of this, Qin Yun suddenly held the food box in her hand, and regardless of the mud and water on the ground, she delivered the food to the soldiers one after another. Seeing them eating voraciously, Qin Yun suddenly felt relieved!

"Mr., the rain has been much lighter, but there is too much water coming upstream. Judging from this situation, the water will rise!" Pan Yueshan couldn't help but sigh.

"How was the digging of Zhishui?"

"The Duke of Returning to China has been digging about two meters. The soldiers and the people worked hard together, and the progress was much faster than I thought. But the more I dug, the more difficult it was. I was still worried that it would not be completed as scheduled."

"It's useless to worry. You have to guard the embankment if you live or die. Is sandbags enough now?"

Pan Yueshan shook his head: "Dude, Xuzhou's treasury has been empty in recent years, and there is no disaster relief supplies prepared at all. We have almost consumed the temporary production. I am really unsure!"

"We must hold on to me if we have any secrets, so we can't give up halfway."

As they spoke, countless people rushed over. It seemed that there were thousands of people. The leader was twenty or thirty old gentry. Some even had to support them to come over. Behind them were countless people, carrying door panels and window frames, pushing water tanks with cars, and some even brought all the quilts from their homes.

The guards led everyone to Gu Zhenhua, and the old gentry all bowed to the ground and cried bitterly.

"Mr., we have all heard that in order to protect the embankment, you jumped down the river personally. We have never seen a good official like you in our life. We represent the elders of Xuzhou and kowtow to you!"

As he said that, these old men knelt on the ground and kept thanking him.

Gu Zhenhua hurried over to support him and said, "As an official, I benefit the people. Since I am in Xuzhou, I must protect everyone's safety. You are all respected. Don't kneel in the mud and water, which will hurt your body. That's not good."

"It's okay, Duke, to be honest, when you were in charge of military farming, I was still scolding you behind my back. It's all my fault that I don't know your hard work. Don't worry, from now on, as long as Duke Ji's orders, no one dares not to listen!"

"That's right, everyone can distinguish between good people. An** is our soldiers, and everyone must do their best."

The leading old gentry even said: "Listen, prepare everything on your hands, install sand and soil, and strengthen the embankment!"

After receiving the order, all the common people mobilized and, together with the soldiers, used the door panels and window frames as piles and drove them into mud and water. The water tank was filled with sand and gravel and sank under the water. The quilts were used as sandbags, and the common people took off all the things they could use at home.

Trucks of bricks were sent over and logs were transported up. Although Kuishan Dike was full of dangers, it was at least safe. Finally, with the efforts of the military and civilians, it was maintained.

After another difficult night, it rained heavily on the third day. The rain was intermittent, and there were more and more dangers on the dike. Three soldiers who were rescued were washed away.

Everyone was worried. It seemed that relying on blockage alone would not work, and hope was placed on the flood discharge path. At this time, Sun Cheng and Lu Yong were fighting with their men and horses. The soldiers had been sleepless for two days. Lu Yong and the others were doing it themselves, and three shovels were broken.

"Sir, it's dug through!"

The soldier ran over excitedly and shouted loudly.

The Zhishui River and Kuishan Dike have been dug up, and floods can be discharged at any time. Sun Cheng also rushed over at this time and said with a laugh: "The river channel of Zhishui River twenty miles has been widened. Not only that, the people have also built a breakwater outside the city wall to prevent the river from flowing back into the city."

"Okay, it's great. Go and report to the Duke of China and prepare for flood discharge!" After saying this, Lu Yong sat on the ground and couldn't help but snoring! (To be continued...)
