"Yes, the water level has indeed risen a lot, and the water flowing down every second is much more than the last time we came here. [^]" Hua Shenguang looked at the mouth of the lake from a distance, like the Milky Way pouring down.
The miracle of nature, he said with great emotion. "It's really hard for everyone. The heavy rain keeps drenching the mountains."
"Your Majesty, we are not miserable!"
"Don't worry, Your Majesty, we will definitely complete the mission!"
Hua Shenguang's emotional words sounded extremely warm to the ears of the soldiers.
"Okay, my warriors from the Daping Kingdom are all heroes who are not afraid of hardship. If you persist for a few more days, you will be done. I have brought you many things, which are all the thoughts of the other soldiers and brothers at the foot of the mountain." Hua Shenguang and
The soldiers chatted for a while, put the supplies they had brought into a temporary camp at the foot of another mountain, then rode the Spirit Eagle and returned along the road.
On the way back, Hua Shenguang deliberately lowered his altitude and flew close to the ground. He saw that in some small rivers, the water had surged, and some were about to rise to the river banks. This was nothing. What surprised him the most was a detail.
The difference is that after the water in the big and small rivers here rises, the water is clear instead of turbid muddy water. This makes him, who is used to seeing the earth's muddy water, yellow water and black water, sigh with emotion.
Back in Shanjing, Hua Shenguang entered the room and suddenly felt a deserted feeling. At this time in the past, Xiaoye would definitely come up to him, bring him dry clothes, take off his wet clothes, and help him
I made hot tea, but now, Xiaoye is not there. Hua Shenguang smiled: "I didn't expect that my dependence on Xiaoye has become so strong without knowing it. Alas, I, the prince, have to do these things myself.
Just do it.”
As soon as he changed into dry clothes, Li Guozhong walked in: "Your Majesty, the general saw the return of the spirit eagle and knew that you were back, so he immediately came to report to you that the 50,000 rafts and boats have been built."
"So fast?" Hua Shenguang was delighted, "Originally, I thought it would take a few days. Since it is so fast, I will give instructions to make all the soldiers familiar with the use of each raft or boat as soon as possible.
It is equipped with five people, two people row oars and poles, and three people fight. It adopts a mixed mode of archers and spearmen. The soldiers are told to work hard for a few days. The decisive battle is imminent, and the enemy army will be destroyed in one fell swoop. There are many achievements.
reward!"
"As you command, Your Majesty!"
At the same time, by a small river hundreds of kilometers north of Jianping County, fifty soldiers were organizing many villagers to reinforce a damaged river embankment. These soldiers were not from the Feng Kingdom, but were sent by Hua Shenguang
of.
"Folks, come on, block this embankment and reinforce it with stones so that it won't be destroyed when the water gets stronger," a soldier said loudly.
"Come on, come on!" The village chief directed hundreds of villagers to move rocks and sandbags and try their best to block the damaged river embankment.
"The officers are really good people. On behalf of the villagers, I would like to thank you again." The village chief said gratefully.
"Village Chief, why do you need to say thank you? My prince has always implemented a benevolent government that puts the people first and serves the people. No one in the area under his jurisdiction knows it. My prince summoned many capable people and figured out
The rain this year will be extremely heavy, and he is afraid that everyone will suffer losses, so he specially sent us out to secretly help the villagers repair the river embankments and divert the river water to prevent it from happening before it happens."
"Yes, we have heard about Prince Hua's kindness for a long time. Now he actually sends all the officers to go deep here regardless of the danger. This is Zeng Huainan's rear! You came to help us, which really moved us. Looking at it from the other side
Look at Zeng Huainan. He also sent people to kill our people and rob our property.
Cheng, this is a world of difference! And our officials from the Feng Kingdom, I'm afraid they are all playing with women in the big courtyards and houses, drinking and eating well. They don't think about the dangers caused by the rising river water.
Let alone take the initiative to come to this relatively remote place next to Luoye Mountain to help us," the village chief said.
"Village chiefs, those officials, with their IQs, probably wouldn't have thought that the water would rise if it rained heavily. Their brains are not used to think about seeking benefits for us people, but to think about how to line their own pockets, live in debauchery, and how.
Run for your life when Prince Hua attacks." Another villager said loudly.
Suddenly, dozens of people standing close burst into laughter.
"Brother, what you said is good. Do you know that there was a lot of commotion a few days ago about soldiers from the Feng Kingdom snatching people's melons? Those melons were bought by my prince with his own money and given to our soldiers to quench their thirst and relieve the heat.
Your Majesty, first of all, cares about us
Secondly, he saw that the people had a good harvest but no sales. He felt that he was ashamed of the people. After all, it was the war between the two countries that affected the people's sales. So the prince wanted to compensate him at that time, but he was killed by that person.
***Lin Dayong was robbed."
"Prince Hua really loves his people like his own son. Folks, let's all support Prince Hua Shenguang, okay?"
"Okay, support Prince Hua! Support Prince Hua!"
In another place, a ten-meter-wide river was slowly being blocked by thirty Daping soldiers.
"One, two, three, push!" In the neat chants, a large stone weighing more than 100,000 kilograms was pushed into the river. The big stone immediately stopped the flow of water. The river water upstream had to be detoured from the 20-kilogram stone.
The main river channel a few meters away flows downward.
Scenes like this were quietly staged in the Nanbei River Basin, either with the participation of local people, or by Daping soldiers secretly doing it alone, or cutting off the tributaries of the river, or building embankments to prevent the river from flooding when the water rose.
Destroy river embankments to reduce the power of downstream floods and prevent losses to people along the river.
The upper reaches of the Nanbei River are close to the Luoye Mountains and are relatively sparsely populated. Normally, officials from the Feng Kingdom would not come to inspect these places. Moreover, it is raining continuously now, and there are even fewer people going out for activities.
, all indirectly provided cover for Daping soldiers. And for Xiu
Many people from the Feng Kingdom spontaneously came to help with the move to repair the river embankments. People in some river sections knew that the people who repaired the river embankments for them were people sent by Hua Shenguang, and their response became even more enthusiastic, just like what happened just now.
In one scene, Daping soldiers took advantage of the situation and promoted Hua Shenguang's policy of loving the people on the spot.
After all, Lin Dayong's good deeds have pushed many people to oppose the Feng Kingdom. When the people heard about Hua Shenguang's benevolent government, they all yearned for it and wished that Hua Shenguang's army would come over immediately.
Take over where they are.
Sometimes, the thoughts of ordinary people are actually very simple. They are at the lowest level of the entire society. They do not have the lofty revenge of warriors, who want to cultivate magic power and become famous all over the world; nor do they have the pedantic feelings of literati, regardless of whether the country is good or bad.
They all have a patriotic passion and want to protect their country and so on. As long as they can live and work in peace and contentment, that's enough.
