Fan Zhongyan looked at the ocean below the mountain and shook his head and said, "Difficult"

This year's water potential, he and Du Yan and Tang Yi have analyzed it in detail. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

"Has the old prince forgotten the flood in the first year of Jingyou? Judging from the present, this year's river disaster may be even more fierce than that year's! ”

Zhao Degang looked up to the sky and lamented when he heard this: "God doesn't bless me Zhao Song!" ”

It's a pity that God can't hear Zhao Degang's plea, or rather

At this moment, God didn't want to keep Song safe at all!

The collapse of the embankment is only a prelude, and the real catastrophe has just begun.

As Tang Yi expected, Bianshui did not stop its crazy momentum because of a small return to the mountain. On May 16, in Kaifeng City, the Bianhe River, the Jinshui River, the Cai River, and the Wuzhang River were all full of water. At its most dangerous, the water is less than a foot from the riverbank, and it is about to overflow the embankment.

At this time, the imperial court was already in a hurry, not only in Beijing, but also in the entire northwest states. More than 20 state capitals, nearly one million Song people are in danger!

On the one hand, Zhao Zhen ordered the governors of all states to make every effort to rescue the emergency, and on the other hand, he asked the officials of the political hall to set a good plan for disaster management and relief. At this time, Wen Yanbo, who had been dormant in the position of deputy prime minister for nearly a year, finally began to exert his power.

Since Zhao Zhen delegated power to the political hall to make every effort to control the northwest floods, Song Zhen has become an ornament, and the entire political hall is under the command of Wen Yanbo alone.

In this regard, Song Gongxu not only did not complain at all, but was extremely cooperative.

Song Zhuangyuan knows how many catties and taels he has, if he balances the relationship between the upper and lower levels on weekdays and makes the court a mess, it is his Song Zhen's strength. But when it comes to saving the field and controlling the chaos, it is not as good as one Wen Kuanfu to tie three Song Gongxu together!

When it comes to the ability to save the field and control disasters and quell chaos, the Great Song Dynasty said that he was the second, and no one dared to admit that he was the first, and his decisive and good personality was fully revealed.

Bianjing City.

On the one hand, Wen Xianggong moved the lowlands in the city to the surrounding areas of the imperial city and the highlands where the Daxiangguo Temple was located in advance, and on the other hand, he ordered the Beijing officials and wealthy nobles in the inner city to open the doors of the mansion to accept the people in order to prevent trouble.

Northwest Front.

The minister strictly ordered all states to stick to the embankment, and those who went up the embankment to protect the river could be exempted from summer tax; He also ordered all the western armies to devote themselves to the defense of the river, except for the soldiers necessary for their duties; The materials for disaster relief in the northwest shall not be detained when passing through the states; All parts of the south have checked grain and grass, and are ready to transfer them to the disaster areas at any time.

Under Wen Yanbo's tossing and turning, and the left and right supports, most of the Song prefectures and counties were in a hurry, but they continued to fight against natural disasters in chaos.

On May 19, the water level of the five rivers in Kaifeng continued to be urgent, and it was level with the embankment.

On the 20th, the embankment overflowed. In just half a day, the homes of households on both sides of the Bianhe River were already three feet of water.

On the 22nd, the disaster in the south of Kaifeng City was the worst, and only the tile roof was left in the flat house, and the high-rise buildings did not see the street door.

The south and east sides of the city are full of oceans

At this time, it can be seen that Wen Xianggong's deep planning, although Kaifeng half of the city was submerged in the flood, but due to the proper treatment, the timely relocation, the flood of Kaifeng, the number of drowning people is less than 100, is the previous disaster, the least casualty.

On the 23rd, the flood reached its peak, and the water potential of the Bianhe River no longer rose, but there was no sign of receding, and the river official reported that it was expected that the flood in Kaifeng would take at least half a month to recede.

Chen Zhizhong got the report from the city, and he also breathed a sigh of relief. If the river does not stop, and if it rises again, it will drown in the camp of the forbidden army.

While Chen Zhizhong was happy, he couldn't help but secretly admire Wen Yanbo!

In this year of catastrophe, the number of people who can be dealt with in a measured and orderly manner will never exceed three people in the Great Song Dynasty. In addition to Wen Kuanfu, the other two have already retired in Guanlan Academy

And don't forget, Wen Yanbo is only over forty years old now, it is the year of the job, and he is blessed by Song Zhi!

However, having said that, such a large-scale, one-time action to gather hundreds of thousands of residents in the inner city, except for China thousands of years later, only the Great Song Dynasty can do it!

First, there must be a prime minister like Wen Yanbo who is bold and can act decisively;

Second, the festival of the nobles of the Great Song Dynasty is still worthy of praise.

Not only are the officials of the Beijing and the civil and military ministers willing to accept the people in times of crisis, but even the royal relatives and nobles also showed great open-mindedness at this time.

The kings of Runan and Beihai took the lead in opening their mansions and vacating their houses to accept the people; Then there were the Wang family and the Shi family, and these unaffected nobles followed closely behind the two virtuous kings; Even Princess Zheng Guo vacated most of the mansion for the victims to live in, and her daily meals were relieved.

Let's ask, which dynasty can achieve the generosity of the Great Song Dynasty?

Just thinking about it, there was a decree from the inner servant, so that he could be seen in the Funing Palace.

Chen Zhizhong didn't dare to be late, he knew that Zhao Zhen had to ask about disaster relief several times a day these days, and he attached great importance to it.

hurried all the way to Funing Palace, and after entering, Chen Zhizhong was stunned

It turned out that Zhao Zhen not only called him, but Song Zhen, Wen Yanbo, and Pang Ji were all there!

Before Chen Zhizhong could pay the courtesy to Zhao Zhen, he saw Zhao Zhen waving his hand with a gloomy face, "Excuse me!" Calling Chen Qing's family to come is to discuss the matter of river defense with all the Qing families. ”

"Wen Qing's family, discuss your strategy for controlling the river with all Aiqing."

Chen Zhizhong couldn't help but wonder, the official family seemed to be extremely unhappy?

Just thinking about it, I heard Wen Yanbo take a step forward and say: "This year, the northwest places have been flooded, and the disaster is based on the catastrophe. ”

Chen Zhizhong continued: "Although the disaster is big, fortunately there is a public minister who presided over the disaster relief, which is really a blessing for the imperial court. ”

Wen Yanbo didn't appreciate it at all, "Chen Xianggong has a good reputation, and before the flood is completely eliminated, Kuanfu doesn't dare to be greedy!" ”

Song Zhen said: "Now the disaster situation in various places has stabilized, and there is no major flaw, as long as the river defense is guarded, the flood can be pacified!" ”

"Alas!" Wen Yanbo sighed, "You are too optimistic! ”

Chen, Pang, and Song were stunned.

"The disaster is far from being stabilized, not a very good one, it may be the immortal disaster of the Yellow Dragon Dance!"

"Yellow Dragon Dance!" Chen Zhizhong exclaimed.

The yellow dragon danced, sounding majestic and atmospheric, like words of praise. However, everyone in the Funing Hall knows that this word is by no means a good word, even terrifying!!

Yellow Dragon, Great River also. From the northwest into the Song Dynasty, all the way to the east, into the sea. Yes

Yellow River.

There is no one who does not want this yellow dragon to be calm and peaceful, not only to raise a side of water and soil, but also to be peaceful for eternity, and never be troubled.

But that's just the vision of the world!

It can be said that the Great Song Dynasty is unlucky, she has to pay for the excessive destruction of the upper reaches of the Yellow River since the Han and Tang Dynasties, this Chinese mother river to the Song Dynasty, has also changed from the cradle of life to a cannibalistic Yellow Dragon!

And the yellow dragon danced

Hehe, don't say it's dancing, even if it turns over, it can make Da Song go to half his life! (To be continued.) )
