The rain came so fast and showed no sign of stopping.
Xu Qinglin ignored the dissuasion and ran to the fields to take a look. When he came back, he sighed, "Almost all the fields in the village were flooded. The seedlings that were just planted not long ago are probably buried by the sand now!"
"
Zhang Xiaoying looked at the heavy rain outside and frowned, "It's a small matter that the fields are flooded. If it continues like this, we will be flooded!"
Guangxing County is named after Guangxing River.
Such heavy rain will definitely cause the water level of Guangxing River to skyrocket, and Pingan Town is located on a low terrain. Once the water level overflows the river embankment, floods will inevitably be released to protect the county town. By then, Pingan Town will be in misery and turn into a vast ocean!
"Mom, what should we do?" Ms. Lin and her friends have never encountered a flood. When they heard Zhang Xiaoying say this, they were very anxious. "If there is a flood, wouldn't our house be destroyed?"
Zhang Xiaoying nodded: "This is the worst outcome. The rain is so heavy that even the river embankment can't bear it. You go pack up first and be prepared to evacuate to the mountain at any time. Go quickly, don't
Stand still! Boss, second brother, go door to door and tell everyone to get ready."
"Okay." Xu Qinglin and Xu Changsheng didn't waste any time and went out in the rain again.
Yu Yang then stepped forward, "Master, the situation in the city is worse than you thought. The flood last night had washed away all the official roads. A landslide occurred in Shixi Town in the middle of the night, and two villages were buried.
It is also blocked. If you want to enter the village, you must first pass through the road."
Zhang Xiaoying sucked in the cold air. Did it collapse in the middle of the night? Was it a mudslide? Doesn’t that mean that no one escaped?
"What's the situation in the county?" Zhang Xiaoying asked again, "If this continues, even the government won't be able to spare any manpower to rescue people in Shixi Town!"
"The river embankment can no longer hold up, and the water level keeps rising." This is the first time Yu Yang has faced a natural disaster like this.
These messages were just sent by the secret guards, asking him to leave Dafu Village.
"Master, Jiajia and I will go to Shixi Town and save every one we can!" Pei Zhaolin said sternly, "I'm afraid there will be no one alive waiting for the government officials!"
"Okay, but we must also pay attention to floods and landslides. It's important to save people, but you must also take care of yourself first!" Zhang Xiaoying could only tell him, "I want to go to the county first. By the way, you go to the town first to buy medicinal materials.
"
It happened in the middle of the night, and if we rush there now, we won't be able to save many people.
Moreover, if people are unable to evacuate in time during the flood discharge, more people will be killed!
Zhang Xiaoying wanted to go to the city to see if, besides discharging floods to Ping'an Town, there was nowhere else to share the burden with Ping'an Town.
If she wants to open a mountain, she will blow it up.
A few days ago, she searched for space and pulled out some hot weapons, including extremely powerful bombs.
Blow up a mountain is no problem!
"Ayang, let's go to the county town first to see the condition of the river embankment."
"Okay." Yu Yang nodded and didn't ask any more questions.
Zhang Xiaoying carefully told Liang and the others what they should pay attention to, and then she and Yu Yang left Dafu Village.
"Why is mom leaving?" When Xu Qinglin came back, he happened to see the four people leaving. "Where is she going in such a heavy rain?"
Mrs. Liang hugged her son and whispered: "Mother has her own rules. We don't need to worry too much. What we have to do is follow mother's arrangements, pack up and go to the mountain. As for what mother wants to do, it's not us.
It’s up to you!”
"I think Mom may be going to save people! Although she looks fierce, she is actually kinder than anyone else. We take care of ourselves and don't hold her back, which is the greatest help. Anyway, no matter what Mom asks me to do, I will
Just listen to her!" Mrs. Lin expressed her attitude.
Everyone in the Xu family agreed with Lin. Xu Qinglin looked at the direction Zhang Xiaoying left, worried, but said nothing. Instead, he and other strong men took tools and went up the mountain to build a shed first, trying to build it early so that everyone could evacuate.
Go up.
Zhang Xiaoying and Yu Yang hurried to the county seat, and on the way they met the government officials who had come to Ping'an Town to notify the evacuation.
"Master, do you want to save Ping'an Town?" Yu Yang suddenly asked when he was approaching the county seat.
Zhang Xiaoying said calmly: "I'm not a god. Even if I want to save him, I can't save him. I came here just to confirm what I think."
The heavy rain made Yu Yang unable to open his eyes, but he knew that Zhang Xiaoying must have a way!
"This seems to be the first time it rains so heavily in Guangxing County." Yu Yang said, "I just didn't expect that there would be a sudden flood this year."
"Ayang, you should worry about yourself. You're here and it's raining heavily in Guangxing County... think about what people with intentions will do!" Zhang Xiaoying reminded Yu Yang.
Yu Yang had thought of this a long time ago, "I know that there are people from me in the county government. If the county magistrate fails to do anything, I will replace him!"
Zhang Xiaoying glanced sideways at Yu Yang. His expression was still calm, but his eyes were firm.
"For the sake of master-discipleship, I will advance and retreat with you as a master!"
"Thank you, Master."
…
The two of them went straight to the river embankment.
In the rain, many people carried sandbags to thicken and strengthen the river embankment.
But the rain did not stop, and it was useless no matter how high the river embankments were. When the floods overflowed the river embankments, the floods to the villages and towns downstream would be even more terrible.
The county magistrate in official uniform was not idle. While commanding the strong men, he was also moving sandbags.
No matter how hard or tired they are, no one takes a break. They are all ordinary people who are trying their best to prevent more people from being affected by the disaster.
But God was not moved by this.
Zhang Xiaoying looked at the river bank for a while and found that the rain seemed to be heavier than before.
In this way, let alone tomorrow, there is still a question whether the river embankment can hold up until this afternoon.
When Yu Yang walked towards the county magistrate, Zhang Xiaoying quietly left the river embankment.
In the heavy rain, no one saw a figure flying across the water and heading towards the opposite side.
Zhang Xiaoying walked around for a week, and she actually found a place more suitable for flood discharge.
There is a valley there. The valley is very large and the terrain is much lower than the city. If most of the floods are introduced here, the pressure on Ping'an Town will be greatly reduced.
Some houses in Ping'an Town may be flooded, but compared to the entire town being flooded, this is already the best outcome.
But you have to blow up a mountain to lead the water to the valley.
Zhang Xiaoying searched for half an hour and finally found a suitable explosion point.
Before planting the bomb, Zhang Xiaoying made sure that there was no one around and there would be no casualties.
After planting the bomb, Zhang Xiaoying returned to the river embankment.
Yu Yang was still on the river embankment, discussing with the county magistrate how to fight the flood.
Zhang Xiaoying stepped forward and waited for them to finish speaking before asking: "Sir, the woman found that besides releasing floodwaters to Ping'an Town, there is a better way to minimize the losses and casualties of the people."
"What can you do? Tell me quickly." The county magistrate knew Zhang Xiaoying, but at the moment he was so worried that he didn't care that Zhang Xiaoying was a woman, so he asked urgently.
