The first thousand one hundred and eighteen chapters sixteen o'clock

Chapter 1,118 Sixteen Hours

Tong Guan was left standing alone at the entrance of the village, wanting to cry but without tears.

Watching from a distance, there was also a group of confused and excited people.

You go! The further you go, the better! It’s best never to deal with you bitch again!

The evil hearts of these literati are full of twists and turns and hooks!

"Miscellaneous Notes from Sichuan":

In July of the third year of Yuanfeng, the river flood was critical, and the water outside Kaifeng Yamen accumulated over a foot.

When the Queen Mother moved to the palace, she was restless and frightened.

Su You, the Duke of Yuguo, raised the river defense and sent Zhang Dun, who participated in the political affairs, to inspect the river with military aircraft.

Dun Fei rode into Chan, inspected the prefect Liu Zuo, sentenced Ye Zhixiang, and prosecuted Tang Keng for embezzling money from Mohe.

Naixu acted as Gu Fu and ordered the three of them to fill the gap with family funds.

With enough collection and storage, and iron evidence forged, he lured three people to the embankment and ordered the boy to kill them.

Forced to borrow 500 troops from the new army, he returned to the post of guard, and the whole state was shaken by millet.

So he began to adjust the wood and stone, collect labor, and secure the dike.

When Yu Gong heard this, he sighed and said: "Zi Hou will definitely be able to kill people. As Da Su said in the preface, his faith is not tainted! He can calm down the world by talking and laughing, and turn the tide before it falls. Is this what you call a minister who orders the world?"



Bianjing, Military Aircraft Department.

Su You carried two enamel lunch boxes and entered the hall.

In the inner courtyard of the Military Aircraft Department, fifty new army chamberlains were wearing new slim-fitting military uniforms, with armed belts around their waists, and all the revolver guns in the boxes, guarding the inner courtyard tightly.

Su You knew that Zhao Xu was determined to spend the night here, so he notified Gong Ye to quickly transfer him.

Putting the two lunch boxes on the table, Su You opened them one by one: "Your Majesty, the utensils are vulgar, but they taste pretty good. You can make do with them."

Zhao Xu took the chopsticks: "What kind of dishes are they?"

Su You took out the small plates from the lunch box one by one: "Cold cucumber and chicken nuggets, braised eggplant in oil, shrimp and white oil winter melon, I asked the cafeteria to add a portion of preserved egg for Your Majesty."

After saying that, he poured the porridge at the bottom of the lunch box into the lid of the lunch box: "It's a hot weather, drink some mung bean porridge."

Zhao Xu asked: "Where's yours?"

Su You also placed his lunch box and plates on the table one by one: "It's the same as me, but with less chicken nuggets and more cucumbers."

Zhao Xu actually had no appetite: "It's been a tough night..."

Su You was actually a little hungry for a long time: "We have done everything we can, and now we can only wait with peace of mind. Your Majesty, please have a good meal and sleep well. Even if there is the worst news tomorrow, you will have enough energy to cope with it, right?"

?”

Su You is the same age as Zhao Xu. Among the bureaucrats with more than two systems, Su You is the only one who can gain Zhao Xu's trust like Wang Anshi. His ability is now even more impressive than Wang Anshi's. At the same time, he is similar in age to Zhao Xu.

Already.

Therefore, the relationship between the monarch and his subjects is a bit strange when no outsiders are present.

It seems that they are not a monarch and a minister, but two friends with relatively equal status.

For example, the way the two meals are placed on the table now, Empress Dowager Gao of the Song Dynasty would not dare to interfere with the emperor's affairs with anyone other than the empress.

Zhao Xu knew that Su You respected him very much and defended him in every aspect, but he often neglected some details.

On the other hand, the ministers of the DPRK and the Central Government, on the surface, are very respectful and behave politely, but on the inside, there are too many people who include themselves in their calculations.

There are not many people who treat each other with such sincerity as Su You, especially those of the same age.

Although the monarch and his ministers can no longer tease each other like they did when they were fishing by Jinming Pond, this rare "treatment" given to him by Su You is definitely worth cherishing.

Unknowingly, Zhao Xu was actually very dependent on Su You.

Seeing Su You looking at him longingly, Zhao Xu knew that Su You wouldn't move if he didn't move his chopsticks.

Although he had no appetite, he picked up a piece of chicken nuggets and said, "Eat it."

"Okay." Su You also started to move his chopsticks: "I'm really hungry."

Once Zhao Xu moved his chopsticks, he couldn't stop. Just as Su You said, the utensils are not good, but the taste is really good.

The sesame pepper oil in the cold chicken nuggets stimulates the taste buds. This is a dish that even the imperial dining room would not dare to make.

I have eaten with Su You many times. As long as it is not a gift from the emperor, but Su You is the host, there will be surprises.

Moreover, there is a tacit understanding between the two of them, that is, guests do as they please.

When Zhao Xu gave a banquet, Su You followed Zhao Xu and played "eat without speaking"; when Su You served as a host, Zhao Xu also followed Su You while eating and talking.

Picking another piece of preserved egg: "Mingrun, do you think the worst outcome will happen?"

Su You said: "Your Majesty, according to the information reported by the downstream, the situation is between two or three. Now we can only believe in the abilities of Chen Zhaoming, Song Yongchen and Dou Shi."

"But what I want to reassure Your Majesty is that our Song Dynasty has made adequate plans for the worst outcome."

"What's the meaning?"

Su You said: "Even if a dyke breaks, we have so many more days of preparation and sixteen more hours of time to respond."

"We have moved the people to higher ground, and our fleet is rushing to Yunzhou with medicines and food."

"Even if the worst outcome occurs, the subsequent impact will never be as tragic as in the past where people had no food to eat and migrated thousands of miles, dying along the way."

"The Changping warehouses, Zhuan warehouses and free warehouses in various places have become abundant again after a year of rectification."

"The Military Aircraft Department has issued plan instructions to all levels. Once an accident occurs, warehouses can be opened to provide relief."

"We have deployed military forces along the river where the embankments may burst. They are not only a force for disaster relief, but also a force for stabilizing the people."

"The Zhongshu, the Third Bureau, the Privy Council, and the government worked together efficiently during this incident. Their operational efficiency, coordination capabilities, and speed of issuing government orders are unparalleled in the past when faced with such a difficult moment."

"The military's quality, responsibility, determination, and patriotic spirit to protect the family and the country cannot be compared to difficult times like this before."

"The royal family, scholars, agriculture, industry and commerce, and people from all walks of life have united to dedicate themselves to His Majesty and help and considerate the government. When one side is in trouble, all parties come to help, the world rises and falls, and everyone has a sense of responsibility. Never before in such difficult times.

comparable."

"So Your Majesty, we are ready, so we are not afraid."

The tension in Zhao Xu's heart suddenly eased, and then he realized that he was also a little hungry.



Yellow River, Cao Village, Yuwang Temple.

The temple is very dilapidated. The figure who was elevated to the status of god for his work in flood control in Chinese history is now covered in dust with his broken body, and he is looking at the busy group of people in front of him with sad eyes.

The highest department of water control in the Song Dynasty, the Department of Water Resources promoted Song Yongchen. He stood in front of the statue, his brows furrowed and his face full of worry.

Chen Zhaoming was doing calculations with chalk on the blackboard on the side, and it seemed that he was actually constructing a function.

Once he enters the computing state, Chen Zhaoming is like a cold machine.

"Pah." The chalk broke, and Chen Zhaoming threw it away: "Is there anything dry?"

"Come on, come on!" Dou Shi ran in with two boxes of chalk: "They were just baked..."

A student from the Polytechnic Institute rushed in: "Chief Shan! The upstream data is here!"

"How much?" Chen Zhaoming raised his head and asked.

"The flood peak passed through Ji County and lasted for three hours. The water flow speed along the river increased from 2.9 meters per second to 3.2 meters per second! In the center of the river, it increased from 3.1 meters per second to 3.6 meters per second.

Meters per second!”

Chen Zhaoming took out a piece of chalk from the chalk box in Dou Shi's hand, erased several cells on the blackboard, and then filled in the numbers: "One group, two groups, count!"

This is a function constructed by the Royal Institute of Technology based on detailed river data collected over many years. The leaders of the two groups began to break it down and then handed over the calculation units to the team members.

The team members used the abacus to calculate the numbers and handed them back to the team leader. The team leader filled in the newly obtained numbers, then continued to decompose and simplify them into calculation units and handed them back to the team members.

Chen Zhaoming turned to Song Yongchen and asked, "How much time do we have?"

A member of the team looked at the mahogany clock on the shrine: "According to the current flow rate, there are still... sixteen hours."

Soon the figures from the first group came out: "Reporting to the mountain chief, according to the calculation results, the flood peak will once again be above the warning water level...2.1 meters."

"Report to the mountain chief..." The voice of the second group became a little hesitant and heavy: "We are also... 2.1 meters..."

Song Yongchen knelt down in front of the seated statue of Dayu with a bang, beat his chest and wailed: "Ten years of work can be ruined once! You bastard thief! Why don't you give me another year! Give me another year...

The Yellow River embankment has been saved, Hebei has been saved... It's over, it's all over this time!"

Chen Zhaoming shook his head, sat slumped on the chair, and murmured to himself: "No, there will definitely be a way... There will definitely be a way..."

Everyone in the Earth Temple was a heavy newcomer. Dou Shi asked eagerly: "Bachelor, can you still think of a way? There are still supplies..."

"There is no time...the manpower has been exhausted..." Song Yongchen was a strictly trained middle officer. He lost his temper for a moment and let out tears. His nose and tears were still hanging on his face, but he recovered in the blink of an eye and said numbly: "It's useless...

…It happens once in sixty years, and within eight hours, even if a god comes to this world, he can’t raise Cao Cunxi so much…”
