Chapter 289 Feng Shaoqing Humiliated

After several days of continuous rain, the rain has not only not decreased but has tended to become heavier.

Feng Shaoqing obeyed Ye Jiuxuan's orders and patrolled the river bank on time every day. He immediately strengthened it when he found signs of looseness.

But as the river water continues to rise, even the most stable river embankment cannot support it.

At this time, a soldier ran over from a distance and said anxiously: "General Feng, a river embankment collapsed five hundred meters ahead, and the gap was one foot long."

The gap is one foot long, and the problem is already very serious.

Feng Shaoqing's heart tightened and said, "Take General to check it out."

The soldiers led the way in front, and Feng Shaoqing followed closely.

Soon the two of them arrived at the collapsed area, and in just a while, the gap became much bigger.

The gap was the newly reinforced stone and sand that he ordered people to be reinforced, but they could not resist the water flow at all.

Feng Shaoqing was frightened when he looked at the turbulent river, then looked at the village not far away, and issued a death order: "Repair immediately, and the gap must not be expanded."

The soldier looked embarrassed: "General, but the stone and sand can no longer be stopped. Even if there is too much stone thrown in, it will be washed away."

So what did Feng Shaoqing not know, but he didn't block the gap.

Thousands of people will suffer.

"If the stone cannot be blocked, I will use people to block it."

The soldiers looked shocked. Feng Shaoqing asked them to jump into the water and use their bodies to block the gap.

For a moment, he didn't know whether he admired or felt sad about this young man.

Human life is greater than heaven. Does Feng Shaoqing really care about the life and death of the soldiers?

Feng Shaoqing also knew that he was cruel, but in such a situation, he had no choice.

"Brothers, behind you is our home. The lives of tens of millions of people in the entire imperial city are in your hands. If the gap is allowed to expand, the flood will pour into the city like a beast. At that time, our family, parents, brothers, and children will all be swallowed by the flood. What we save is not others, but ourselves."

Feng Shaoqing's long hair was wet against his head, and his handsome face became haggard due to the hard work for many days, and there was thick bruises in his eyes.

My eyes turned red because I didn’t have a good rest for a long time.

Faced with such Feng Shaoqing, the soldiers were silent.

"Don't worry, General Feng, even if we use our flesh and blood to fill it, we will still protect the people in the capital."

Plop, plop...

Someone jumped into the turbulent river water and used his body to block the gap.

"Protect your home and protect the imperial city."

Some people kept jumping into the water, and the soldiers hugged each other tightly and worked together.

Feng Shaoqing had red eyes and bowed to everyone: "I'll leave this to you. I'll tell the prince immediately, let the people nearby evacuate first, and it depends on you how long the river bank can last."

"General Feng, don't worry, we will definitely not let you down."

The loud sound rushed into the sky and lingered in the sky, and did not dissipate for a long time.

Feng Shaoqing rushed to the prince's residence with a quick horse. He had been sleeping for three days and three nights.

He almost fell on the horse's back several times, but when he thought of the brothers in the water, he gritted his teeth and held on.

Half an hour later, Feng Shaoqing appeared at the prince's garrison.

Here are carved beams and painted buildings, and the vocal music is constantly coming.

The maids who were traveling around were wearing gorgeous dresses and holding various delicacies in their hands, and were delivered to Ye Tianqi's table continuously.

When Feng Shaoqing saw this, his brows frowned deeply.

The prince said he was here to supervise the reinforcement of the river embankment and dig the canal, but in fact he had never left the house for a while.

Feng Shaoqing had seen the canal, but there was no sign of excavation at all.

The chest \/The fire ignited, and Feng Shaoqing clenched his fists and broke in.

With a bang, he kicked open the door.

The maids screamed in fear and all knelt on the ground.

The prince glanced at him gloomyly and raised a yin-normal smile on his face: "General Feng, why are you so angry?"

Feng Shaoqing endured it again and again, suppressed his anger and replied: "Your Highness, the river embankment is almost unable to hold on, why hasn't the construction of another canal started yet?"

Ye Tianqi hooked his fingers, and the maid immediately fed him a piece of snack.

But as if he hadn't heard Feng Shaoqing's words, he actually hugged the maid in his arms and lowered his head to kiss the woman's lips.

Feng Shaoqing turned his face away in disgust, not wanting to see his disgusting side.

It was not until Ye Tianqi was satisfied that he pushed the maid away and answered Feng Shaoqing's words: "Why should General Feng exaggerate? The river embankment collapsed so easily. I am optimistic."

His words almost made Feng Shaoqing angry.

"Your Highness, it's important to be a big deal, you can't make a joke." Feng Shaoqing advised earnestly.

Ye Tianqi waved his hand without taking it seriously: "I have a judgment. If Feng Shaoqing has that leisure, he should care about himself. After all, he is old and he has to start a family and establish a business, otherwise he will suddenly disappear one day and there will be no one to die."

The maids all covered their mouths and laughed softly.

Ye Tianqi casually pushed out a maid and said to Feng Shaoqing: "This maid in this palace is pretty and cute. Why not just give it to General Feng as a house filling?"

Feng Shaoqing gritted his teeth in anger. He knew that it would be a joke to pin his hope on Ye Tianqi.

At that moment, he turned around and left without saying a word.

Ye Tianqi saw him being angry and laughed, slapped the table and said, "See you, he was angry and left."

"Your Highness, you are so bad."

"No matter how bad it is, it's not as bad as you, hahaha..."

The matter is urgent and cannot be delayed anymore. Feng Shaoqing has no way to leave, so he can only go back first to find a way to strengthen the river embankment.

Wait for Ye Jiuxuan to arrive.

Now he is the only one who can save the people from water and fire.

Feng Shaoqing returned to the collapsed place of the river embankment and saw soldiers standing in the river water in a group.

The cold river water was frozen, and their lips were trembling, but when they saw Feng Shaoqing, they raised their smiles and cheered: "The general is back, the general is back."

Feng Shaoqing is their hope, and they finally waited.

Faced with the expectant faces, Feng Shaoqing was ashamed.

Not only did he not speak out to the prince, he was humiliated.

He had no face to face Zhang Zhongsheng's face.

"General, is the canal coming soon and we will be able to go home soon, right?"

"I really want to have a hot meal. If I continue soaking, I will be almost diarrhea."

Everyone burst into laughter, and the tense atmosphere suddenly eased a lot.

Feng Shaoqing's tears were spinning in his eyes, he was too incompetent.

"General, we are fine, so it won't be a problem for a few more days."

Someone saw Feng Shaoqing's eyes red and thought he was like this because he was moved, so he joked.

Feng Shaoqing didn't know how to face them, so he opened his mouth and was about to tell the truth, but he heard a crisp sound.

"Justice Jiu asked everyone to hold on for another two days, and the canal will be dug soon."
