Chapter 577
"It's time to go, it's time to go, it's time to go, it's time to go..."
When the people in Wuchang City heard this sound, everyone was stunned. They lived by the Yangtze River for generations and naturally knew the power of this river.
If the dam collapses, the entire city will quickly become a vast ocean, and there are people in the family who die in the flood, so when they hear this, everyone becomes nervous.
Zuo Liangyu also received the news at the first time, but this guy felt very strange. Generally speaking, if the flood season comes, the Yangtze River will rise and the dam collapse will occur from time to time, but the problem is not the flood season now, how can there be water?
"Report to the Marquis, it has been found that the three major embankments of the Yangtze River have been broken."
Zuo Menggeng had just changed into his official uniform and had not yet walked out of his home's door. He had heard the deadly news. In previous years, as long as there was a dam that broke his dam, it would have cost him his life. Now there are three places that broke his dam. How can this be done?
"Why are you still standing there? Hurry up and ask someone to block it. If it can't be blocked, I'll fill it with my life."
Zuo Liangyu has been in charge of the Huguang area for more than ten years and naturally knows the harm of the Yangtze River breaking, but the surrounding area of Wuchang has also been reinforced and reinforced, which is completely different from other places.
It has been many years since there was nothing wrong. Not to mention this month, even if it is the flood season, it can be completely able to withstand it. Zuo Liangyu's heart skipped a beat. Could it be that this is artificial?
"Where has the eldest master gone?"
Now the overall situation is settled, no one will take risks. If there is someone, it will definitely be his eldest son and those who will die in the city. In order for them to persevere, these guys may take risks. If it is them, it will be really unscrupulous.
"If you go back to the Marquis, the eldest young master hasn't been here for a day."
After hearing this answer, Zuo Liangyu was basically sure that this was done by his eldest son.
"Let me find it right away. Even if you turn over the entire Wuchang City, you must find someone."
Zuo Liangyu was trembling with his hands and feet. What he was most afraid of was that something happened in the past two days. He had just reached an agreement with the court. Although a small number of people were sacrificed, at least most of the people's interests were preserved.
If Wuchang was flooded, the court would definitely hold some people accountable. Once this bastard left, what should the remaining people do? Even Zuo Liangyu himself couldn't get over it.
Ye Yun, outside the city, also understood what was going on. Someone really blew up the Yangtze River embankment, and it was not in the same place.
Because Ye Yun and his team wanted to fire artillery, they had to occupy a high terrain. After the water came, their military camp did not suffer much loss, and they also had the help of the navy, so the losses were very limited. Now what Ye Yun was most worried about was Wuchang City.
The terrain of Wuchang City itself is not high, and it all relies on the Yangtze River embankment. Now, after the embankment is broken, a large number of floods are gushing towards Wuchang City.
"Immediately draw people from the military camp who are water-like and follow me to the Yangtze River embankment immediately. Even if you take your life, you will have to block the embankment."
Ye Yun showed fearlessness at this time. Of course, he knew the harm of the flood. If he could block the Yangtze River embankment in time, the losses could be minimized, otherwise the Qianli Ze Kingdom would come.
"God general, let's wait. If this is Zuo Liangyu's trick, all of us will go to rescue the disaster. If they take this opportunity to attack us, then we will not have any defense at all, and we will suffer a great loss at that time."
The words of a general under his command also reminded Ye Yun, but Ye Yun did not intend to listen to this guy.
"In any case, His Highness the Crown Prince teaches that the interests of our people are supreme. If even the lives of the people are gone, what is the meaning of preservation of our army? Go down and find someone immediately. If anyone delays, he will be killed and unpardoned."
Ye Yun still showed a spirit of selfless dedication at this time and rushed towards the Yangtze River embankment with his subordinates. However, they came here to fight and did not have the tools to protect the Yangtze River embankment. It turned out that the breach was only about ten meters wide, but now it is more than thirty meters.
"Come on, bring our carriage over and push all the food on it to me."
Ye Yun thought of the food for disaster relief at this time. Apart from those things, there was nothing else that could block the breach.
"No, General, that's the disaster relief food given to us by the court. If all of them are washed away by water, how can I explain it to the court then?"
The people below immediately stopped him. Although there were more than a thousand trucks of food, if they were all blocked here, what should the people in the city eat? The most important thing is what should their troops eat, and everyone has no surplus food in their hands.
"If I don't block the place and the entire city will be flooded, where will the victims come from at that time? They are all dead bodies. I will lead all the carriages to me by following my orders. If anything happens, I will explain to the court."
Ye Yun showed his decisive side at this time.
"Go to me quickly, or I'll shoot you."
Ye Yun took out the pistol in his hand, and the people below could only hurry up and drive the carriage. They were not far from the Yangtze River embankment and quickly pushed the carriage up, but when the two carriages were pushed down, they were quickly washed away by the flood.
"Continue to throw it down, when will it block here, when will it be calculated, and bring me the food of the navy."
At this time, Ye Yun pushed another carriage down. The grain of the carriage only stayed in the local area for a few seconds, and then was flushed away by the flood.
However, the soldiers also realized that if the operation was done properly, they would definitely use this method to block the slightest, but the problem is that they don’t know how much food they will use. It seems that we will all go hungry in the future.
One carriage after another was pushed down, and the entire Yangtze River embankment was lined up with carriages. Ye Yun had already smelled the smoke of gunpowder, which must be a human reason.
