Chapter 1,119 "Gourd Song"

After taking off the black gauze on his head and wiping his face, Song Yongchen said to Dou Shi: "Yongzhi, go back and tell your Majesty that you are incompetent, betrayed the grace of God, wasted the country's resources, and in the end achieved nothing..."

"To cause the people of Hebei to perish again, and to use ministers to commit crimes greater than God, is unforgivable."

"Tell your majesty that the science of science and engineering is a sacred tool. You must not abandon it because of your defeat. You must persist and you will succeed and you will eventually see success."

"It's a pity that I don't have this blessing and can continue to serve His Majesty."

Dou Shi said: "Judge..."

Song Yongchen stood up: "Inform General Zhong and ask the boys from the Sergeant Academy to evacuate with you... I will go to Cao Village and die together with the embankment to thank the world."

"Wait a minute!" Chen Zhaoming suddenly threw himself down on the big table in the temple, started searching on the map, and shouted to the leader of the group: "Reduce the net height increase of the flood peak by one-third, and then calculate again!"

"Ah?" The leader of the science and engineering team was dumbfounded: "Why?"

Chen Zhaoming said angrily: "Don't ask why! Forget it!"

After speaking, he pulled Song Yongchen and Dou Shi to the table and pointed to a place on the map: "Here! "Gourd Son Song"! Do you know?"

Dou Shi said: "What will happen if the gourd is defeated? The vast ocean will turn into a river. Is it the one by Emperor Wu?"

Chen Zhaoming said: "This is it! In the third year of Yuanguang of the Han Dynasty, the river broke through the Huzikou of Puyang, moved to the southeast, poured into Juyeze, connected to the Huaihe River, and the Sishui River, causing flooding and disasters."

"Today's Huzi River passes through Juancheng, Yuncheng, Liangshan, Yanggu, Acheng, Chiping, and enters Jishui in the east!"

Dou Shi looked at Chen Zhaoming in disbelief: "The bachelor is thinking...is thinking..."

Chen Zhaoming slapped the table: "Blow the mouth of the gourd and release the flood through the old channel that was breached during Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty. We can divide the water potential of the current peak of the Yellow River and save the area below Caocun!"

Dou Shi turned pale with fright: "That was the most serious flood in the Han Dynasty. The river broke through the mouth of Huzi, entered Junye Ze in Yanzhou, and then flowed into the Huaihe River before flowing into the sea. Sixteen counties were affected by the flood, and countless fertile fields were flooded.

, crops were destroyed, and people became fish and turtles.

"Emperor Wu personally led 100,000 people to the embankment, offered sacrifices to the river with white horses and white jade, and ordered the generals and subordinates to personally carry trees and stones. Finally, he restored the old ways of Dayu."

Chen Zhaoming said: "Yes, so there is no need to look for another place, because there is a landmark there - Xuanfang Old Hall!"

After Emperor Wu of the Han Dynasty "restored Yu's old ruins", in order to celebrate the victory in fighting floods, he built a palace at the intersection of the gourds and named it "Xuanfang".

The victory of that river control project had another great significance for the Han Dynasty - it was a sign that mankind could defeat the roaring and wild Yellow River.

Taking this incident as an opportunity, water conservancy and irrigation projects began to be widely carried out in the Han Dynasty and developed rapidly.

Sima Qian once wrote in "Hequ Shu":

Since then, those who use things argue for the benefits of words.

Shuofang, Xihe, Hexi and Jiuquan all divert rivers and valleys to irrigate fields.

And Lingzhi in Guanzhong became a country, and the canal led to the rivers.

In Runan, the Jiujiang River diverts the Huaihe River, the East China Sea diverts the Juding River, and the Taishan Mountain diverts the Wen River, all of which are irrigated through canals, each with more than 10,000 hectares.

Its small canal and Pishan Passage are indescribable.

Now, Chen Zhaoming wants to blow up the Yellow River embankment!

Song Yongchen was already as devastated as a wooden puppet, but Dou Shi was stunned to the point of being dumbfounded.

The leader of the science and engineering team stood up excitedly: "Chief Shan! Change the parameters and the water level will drop from 2.1 meters to 1.7 meters!"

"One o'clock seven!" Song Yongchen suddenly woke up: "What one o'clock seven?"

Chen Zhaoming said: "If we can divert one-third of the floodwater through the Huzikou into Juye, Liangshanbo, and Huaisi into the sea, the height of the flood peak in Caocun will be reduced to 1.7 meters above the current water level!"

"Let's take a look!" Song Yongchen lay down on the map, but suddenly he became frustrated: "No...if one mistake is made, it will become a catastrophe like the dyke bursting at Huzikou in the Han Dynasty..."

Chen Zhaoming said: "So we must control the time node and the size of the breach!"

"We should not only make the diversion of Ruzikou so large that the downstream Cao Village will not burst its embankment when the flood peak passes by, but also ensure that after the flood peak passes, the breach will not expand beyond control and can be blocked again in time!"

Song Yongchen looked confused: "How... is this possible..."

Chen Zhaoming walked to the blackboard and quickly brushed up the blackboard: "Now is the bet. If we don't bet, the flood will come. Sun Village, Cao Village, Da Wu, Xiao Wu, I don't know which one to decide. No matter which one is decided, the disaster will be greater than

It would be much more serious to blow open the flesh."

After that, he started to list: "How long does it take for the flood peak to pass through Jixian County in the upper reaches? Accurate!"

The team members immediately reported: "Three point three hours!"

“How many kilometers is it from Juancheng to Puyang?”

The team members began to nervously make calculations: "It's about 150 miles to Puyang and 235 miles to Yuncheng."

Chen Zhaoming made calculations in a hurry, and finally put up the chalk: "There's enough time! The journey from Puyang to Juancheng will take two hours, and the flood peak will pass through Zongzikou in five hours. We still have three hours.

It’s time to determine the location of the explosion and the amount of explosives. If you set off now, it’s too late!”

Dou Shi said worriedly: "Even so, the water crossing Liangshan Pond may endanger Yunzhou! There is no room for loss there!"

Chen Zhaoming said: "Do we have any other options? No matter where the flood breaks the embankment, it will eventually flow into Liangshan Bo! By diverting the flood at Rongzikou, we at least have one more Juye Ze to accommodate the flood!"

"Do it!" Song Yongchen hurriedly rolled up the map: "Go and call Chief Zhongshan! We can't do this without them!"

When I heard that the embankments were going to be blown up, I was so confused by all the explanations. You are the Dushui Department, and I asked you to manage the river. But in the end you told me that it was not about building embankments but about blowing up embankments?

Chen Zhaoming said: "There is no extra time to explain now. We only have three hours, and we can't waste a minute."

"What we need now are experts in demolition, as well as fast horses, to compete with the flood for time!"

After saying that, he took out a blank order from his arms: "This is the blank order that Shaobao gave me before he left. It has the seal of the Military Aircraft Department on it. It is said to be for urgent use. I will take on this responsibility."

!”

"You, Shao Te, are talking nonsense!" Zhong Exe was furious. He grabbed the edict and tore it into pieces: "The most intelligent person in the world, Shao Bao, you are spoiled to the point of destruction!"

"Jingrun, please remember, with Shaobao here, even if you and I are sent to the New Song Dynasty by His Majesty, he will be able to get us back."

"If Shaobao is gone and everyone pushes us down, all of us will be buried together!"

"I'll take the responsibility for this! Wang Junwan, come here with the men from the third artillery squad, and send someone to find Fatty Guo quickly!"

After a while, all members of the third artillery squad arrived.

"Bring 300 kilograms of nitrocellulose and detonators. Be careful to carry them dispersedly! Follow Master Chen's command in everything! Get ready immediately."

"yes!"

"Then why don't you go and stay with me as a consultant. There are a lot of things to do here."

Qian Gu took a step forward, held his head high and said: "Report to the mountain commander! The three artillery squadrons advance and retreat together! Qian Gu cannot run, but archery is the sixth skill of a gentleman, and riding a horse is no problem. It will not hinder the brothers!"

Zhong Ji thought for a moment: "Okay, it's up to you!"

A fat man wheezing and panting ran to the front of the crowd: "Information... Coach Guo Long... is here!"

"You! Why have you gained weight again?!" Seeing Guo Long, Zhongjie's heart almost broke, and there were tears of distress in his eyes.

He gritted his teeth and said, "Only my Wu Zui and Ta Yun Zi can carry this pig like you! Take it away, or you'll have to run to death!"

A group of people ran to get ready. Zhong Ji looked at Guo Long's fat back and waved his fist: "Baby Guo! If you don't die this time, I won't ask you to lose thirty pounds when you come back. I'll write Zhong upside down."

…

Jingxi East Road, Yunzhou City.

Different from later generations, today's Yuncheng is completely a water city. From the Han Dynasty to the Tang Dynasty, through the Five Dynasties to the present, the surging Yellow River has had several major breaches, and finally poured into the foot of Liangshan Mountain, forming a huge river on the west side of Yuncheng.

The lake is connected with the ancient giant Yeze upstream, forming an endless large water surface, known as eight hundred miles.

The upper reaches of Liangshanbo is a canal called Guangji Canal that branches off from the Bian Canal to the northwest of Chenliu after passing through Kaifeng.

The Guangji Canal is connected to the Wuzhang River. Cattle boats can pass through this waterway and pass through Liangshanbo directly to Yunzhou.

The water from Liangshanbo, after passing through Yunzhou, uses a natural river, Jishui, as an outlet, and flows eastward into the sea through Pingyin, Licheng, Zhangqiu, and Boxing.

In addition to this east-west canal, Yunzhou is also an important hub of the north-south canal. Through the dense water network, it can connect the entire Hebei East Road and Hebei West Road, connecting Daming and Zhending on the top; Yanzhou and Jeju on the bottom.

Xuzhou, Huaiyang.

Therefore, this is a large water transport hub extending in all directions. When Suyou set up its industrial base here, it can be said that it was a unique vision.
