Chapter 437 Flood Disaster
Chapter 437 Flood Disaster
Chapter 437 Flood Disaster
The whole Central Plains
In the blink of an eye, it is July, and the weather has been extremely hot these days.
The common people can feel the heat in the air, take a breath, and feel the heat in the lungs.
For some experienced people, they are extremely worried.
With such abnormal weather, there must be signs of heavy rain or torrential rain.
However, the more you worry about something, the more likely it will happen.
"Whoa!!"
"Snapped!!"
Finally, in the middle of the night a few days later, a thunderbolt fell from the sky, piercing the dark night,
In the sky, it began to rain cats and dogs, and the heavy rain continued continuously from night to dawn
Countless people got up from the bed early, looking at the rain curtain hanging all over the sky,
Their hearts were extremely worried, and it continued to rain heavily all night
Seeing more and more accumulated water in the field, countless people braved the heavy rain and rushed into the field,
They began to repair the waterways themselves and drain the excess water from the fields.
However, the world can predict that God seems to be deliberately playing tricks on people. On the first day, the flood seemed to be able to withstand it, and the people were able to barely discharge the water by relying on their own efforts.
But the second day, the third day.
It has been raining for five consecutive days, and the water level of the Yellow River has become higher and higher. The surge of rain has caused huge safety hazards in many places.
"My lord, it's not good, according to the forecast of the Meteorological Administration!"
"Looking at the sky, this rain will last at least five days!"
"In this way, many people's fields will inevitably suffer. The rain this time is bigger than imagined!"
"I don't know what the lord can do?"
On this day, the director of the Meteorological Department, together with Pang Tong, Pang De and Sima Wei, appeared in Jiang Chen's study. This time, the torrential rain was bigger than expected.
If you don't find a way to deal with it immediately, and let it continue like this, not only will the flood be unable to be controlled, but at least half of the people will lose their crops because of it.
The people in Hanzhong have built enough reservoirs and dug enough lakes, but they still haven't been able to completely withstand the terrible torrential rain and floods.
"It's true, the rain won't dissipate today?"
"Will you continue for five days?"
After Jiang Chen heard it, he also had a serious face, and he looked at the Director of the Meteorological Department.
This person turned out to be a member of the Taoist sect, and because he was very good at observing the sky, he was recruited by Jiang Chen to specialize in the study of climate, which is very important for farming civilization.
"My lord! It's absolutely true!"
"According to my calculations, the torrential rain will last for at least four or five days!"
"If we don't take precautions as soon as possible, I'm afraid it will cause a huge safety hazard!"
"You can use the black yarn on your head as a guarantee, there is absolutely no falsehood!"
The Director of the Meteorological Department said solemnly.
"Everyone, what's the best strategy?"
Jiang Chen looked at Sima Wei and the others, they came hand in hand, they must also want him to find a way, rather than just sit and wait for death.
"My lord, at this moment, we can only let the people dig up the potatoes as much as possible, and then transplant them to the mountains!"
"Or be able to reduce some losses!"
"As for those areas with higher terrain, they are not in the disaster-affected area. According to normal estimates, at least half of the people will be in the flooded area this time!"
The Hanzhong area where Jiang Chen is located, including Chang'an, Chengdu and other places, are all close to water sources, many areas are on the banks of the Yellow River, and the terrain is relatively shallow.
Once the Yellow River breaks its embankment, it will undoubtedly deal a fatal blow to them.
"This is impossible!"
"Now that the potatoes have taken root in the soil, they can be dug up and transplanted!"
"Not only is the survival rate not high, but the probability of the outcome is extremely low!"
"This matter is not a good strategy!"
Jiang Chen shook his head, denying the opinions of several people.
"My lord, please forgive me!"
"For a while, the old minister couldn't think of a better way!"
"Nowadays, I just hope that the people can evacuate the affected area as soon as possible. The loss of food harvest is a small matter, but if the lives of the people are threatened, it is a big problem!"
"Don't disregard the lives of the people!"
Sima Wei said to Jiang Chen.
His attitude was very serious, and when facing Jiang Chen, he said it without hesitation.
He's not afraid of making Jiang Chen unhappy, since Jiang Chen wants him to be the mirror, then he must do his job well.
Only in this way can he be worthy of the Lord's trust in him.
"Morality speaks for itself!"
"The safety of the people is extremely important!"
"Not only must we find a way to solve the problem of flooding!"
"Also let the people withdraw from the dangerous area as soon as possible!"
Jiang Chen nodded, agreeing with Sima Wei's opinion.
"My lord, since this is the case, saving people is like putting out a fire, and I will arrange it right away!"
"Veteran is willing to cooperate with Pang Da to deal with the flood issue!"
Sima Wei said anxiously.
"There is no rush, let me think about it again!"
Jiang Chen shook his head, looked at the huge map, and fell into deep thought.
"Lord."
Sima Wei next to him was so anxious that his ass was on fire, but Jiang Chen was staring at the map in a daze.
"Mr. Morality, be safe and don't be impatient!"
"Let the lord think about it, maybe there will be a better solution!"
"No matter how anxious you are now, you will only be like headless flies, unable to find any clues!"
Pang Tong next to him immediately stopped Sima Wei, he really knew Jiang Chen too well.
He is generally able to enter the point of contemplation, and can always think of a good way, which brings him unexpected surprises, every time.
Jiang Chen never let him down.
"I said Brother Decao, listen to my nephew!"
"My lord is a celestial being, so I'm sure I can think of a good way!"
"Just wait a moment, it won't affect the overall situation!"
Duke Pang De next to him was also on Pang Tong's side.
No matter what, he admired Jiang Chen very much. Jiang Chen's talent was outstanding, and he had never heard of many theories about hospitals.
Even in the face of the genius doctor Hua Tuo, Jiang Chen can often give him advice.
It feels like Jiang Chen is an all-rounder, proficient in everything, and Pang Tong is his relative no matter what, so as an elder, he naturally has to stand by his side.
"Okay, we can only wait!"
Hearing the persuasion of the two, Sima Wei also nodded, feeling that he had acted too hastily.
The former self was not like this. Now it seems that he really loves this job and regards the people as the objects of his service.
With a compassionate heart, he couldn't bear to see the people living in dire straits.
"Don't worry, Lord Decao, the lord will definitely come up with a clever plan!"
"Help the people get rid of the biggest trouble this time!"
Pang Tong next to him comforted him carefully.
"Have!!"
