On the ninth day of June in the eighth year of Qingli, the Yellow River burst its embankment in the Hushangkou section of the Daimyo's Mansion. Pen? Interesting? Pavilion wWw. ｂiquge。 ｉｎfo

The next day, the news reached Kaifeng, and Zhao Zhen urgently ordered all states to report the disaster situation in order to prepare a response. After the states brought up the detailed disaster information, even the Great Song monarchs and ministers who had experienced the catastrophe in Jingyou Year were completely stunned!

Yellow Dragon Dance! The yellow dragon that crosses the Great Song Dynasty.... Completely flew!

According to the report, the Hushang section of the river burst more than two miles, and the turbid waves rushed out of the shore, filling the sky, swallowing up dozens of states and counties on the east and west roads of Beijing, and dozens of counties on the east and west roads of Hebei, all the way to the north.

This is not the most fatal, whether it is Wen Yanbo or Zhao Zhen, they have long been mentally prepared for this. What really made Zhao Zhen unacceptable was that the Yellow River broke and went all the way north, with an indomitable momentum, and finally merged into the Baigou River, taking the boundary river waterway into the sea.

Wen Kuanfu said in the first sentence, he knew today, he should have listened to him at the beginning, digging the embankment to the north!!

Zhao Zhen and the ministers of the political system would rather risk flooding dozens of states than divert the Yellow River to the north, precisely because the siltation of the Jiehe River and the natural danger of the Yellow River were the two most important lines of defense of the Great Song Dynasty against the Liao State. If one does not lose these two lines of defense, it will inevitably attract the covetousness of the Liao State.

However, the current situation is something that no one expected....

Not only were the states of Jingdong devastated, but the two lines of defense that they wanted to protect were also completely destroyed.

Now, the Yellow River has become the Song Liaojie River, the original Baigou River silt pond has been directly taken by big boat, if the Liao State wants to invade the Song Dynasty, directly carry troops by boat, can go directly to the bank of the Yellow River hundreds of miles away from Kaifeng.

Zhao Zhen never expected such an ending, and stood outside the Funing Hall for a long time with a pale face, and finally Li Bingchen stepped forward to report, saying that Cao Tong and Pan Feng asked to see him, and asked Zhao Zhen if he saw him or not.

Zhao Zhen reacted at this time and shouted urgently: "See! See! The two of them meet each other! ”

And in the hall of government.

Chen Zhizhong, Song Zhen, and Pang Ji were all sitting in a wooden position, the three of them, like Zhao Zhen, were all unable to regret it, if they listened to Wen Kuanfu that day, how could there be today's crisis?

On the contrary, Wen Yanbo was not chaotic in the face of danger, and if he was decided, one after another government decrees were issued by the hands of this 'young' minister, and he tried his best to save the situation.

Chen Zhizhong looked at the subordinate officials at all levels who went in and out of the door of the governor's political affairs room, and suddenly felt old, and asked himself secretly, is he really old, and he has lost his original fruit?

...

On June 14, Zhao Zhen issued an edict to comfort the heavens and order all states to make every effort to rescue and relieve the disaster and resettle the victims. The states requisitioned and dispatched the people, and the imperial court belonged to the two roads in Hebei where the disaster relief materials were transferred within ten days.

Ten days? How can such a catastrophe be possible in ten days?! Even the time to recruit the husband and the ship is not enough.

However, such a ridiculous decree, Zhao Zhen issued it like this, and the minister of the political hall accepted the decree so absurdly.

What's even more unreliable is that within ten days, the grain ship of the imperial court for disaster relief also arrived in the disaster area absurdly!

Before the flood receded, the relief food had already arrived, which was a bit outrageous!

Many people still think that this is a cowhide blown by local officials who lie about their political achievements in order to compete for merit, but they never imagined that Guanlan's grain ships have indeed arrived in the disaster area.

On May 23, Tang Yi received the decision of the official family to refuse to dig the embankment to level the risk, so he urgently ordered the transportation capacity in various places to load grain and materials and assemble in Dengzhou and Haizhou; On the ninth day of June, Kankan rushed to the two places to stand by before the levee burst.

On the other hand, as soon as the imperial court received the report of the disaster in various states, Cao Tong and Pan Feng met with Zhao Zhen.

Zhao Zhen was naturally overjoyed, it turned out that he informed Tang Yi to ask Guanlan Shanghe to assist in disaster relief, but he never expected that Guanlan's actions would be so fast.

Can it not be fast? For this day, Tang Yi has been preparing for more than half a year.

With a stroke of his pen, Zhao Zhen raised the road consumption of grain transfer by half, and only 5,000 catties of grain for 100 catties can be transported to the disaster area.

Hehe....

From last autumn to the beginning of spring, Tang Yi purchased a total of two million stone grains in the Song Dynasty, and Zhao Zhen gave him half!

Earn fly!

But....

Zhao Zhen gave it, but he couldn't ask for it...

First, this is a major event for disaster relief and survival, and he can't earn this money, and he will be punished.

Second, Tang Yi wants to use this disaster relief to make a name for Guanlan's fleet.

Therefore, Zhao Zhen gave 40% more according to the disaster relief road consumption in previous years, but Cao Tong didn't ask for it, and only calculated it according to the normal road consumption of 30%. Moreover, Uncle Cao secretly told his brother-in-law that the actual road consumption would not exceed 10%, and the remaining 20% would be transported to the disaster area with the situation of people's donations.

Zhao Zhen was overjoyed, every time there is a catastrophe, it is nothing more than to eat a full stomach, prevent epidemics, and strictly prevent civil uprisings, these three major events are the most important, and these three are all related to one thing.....

That's food!

If there is food, there will be no hunger, fewer people will die, and the epidemic prevention will be relatively simpler.

It can be said that as long as the grain can still be transported to the disaster area, then both the victims and the emperor will have a bottom in their hearts, and more than half of the disaster will be gone!

...

However, Zhao Zhen was happy, but he also had troubles, because the DPRK and China did not stop...

Chen Zhizhong, Song Zhen.... Please resign!

Chen Zhizhong and Song Zhuangyuan are really not flirtatious, but the two of them can't help in the court except for dry staring.

Chen Zhizhong is a lonely minister, a minister, and his biggest role in the court is to grasp a degree, so as not to let the court suffer too much internal friction due to political disputes. It is best to use such a person in the peaceful and prosperous era, after the Qingli New Deal, what the imperial court needs most is stability, which is also the primary reason why Chen Zhaoyu can sit in the position of prime minister and minister for more than three years.

Don't think that three years is not a long time, in the Northern Song Dynasty, where changing prime ministers was as diligent as changing clothes, this was already considered a long time.

And Song Zhen is a close minister, even a slanderous minister. He doesn't care if he fights or not, and he doesn't care if it's right or wrong, it's not bad, Song Zhuangyuan only recognizes one and follows the official, what Zhao Zhen thinks, that's what he thinks.

In the court, he played a role in easing the conflict between the parties, and he was also a peaceful minister.

However, now it is not possible, the Yellow River breach has not been blocked, and it is likely that it will not be blocked, and the disaster situation in dozens of states in Hebei is unsolved.

Moreover, everyone knows that this time the river collapse will not be relieved in a year or two, and the crisis caused by the Great Song Dynasty is still to come.

The literati of the Great Song Dynasty still have integrity, and Chen and Song are also self-aware, and they can't do it when they occupy the pit and don't.

Moreover, this time the embankment burst, the two of them felt that they had to pay a lot of responsibility. is still the same sentence, if I had listened to Wen Kuanfu at the beginning, I might not have the following troubles.

The two of them asked for their resignation, Zhao Zhen was naturally not allowed, it was the time to employ people, how could you go?

However, Chen Zhizhong had already made up his mind, and he refused a few times, and finally Zhao Zhen had to be allowed to play.

But.....

The question is, as soon as Chen Zhizhong leaves, who will add to this pit?
