Hoo ho ho! ! !
The soldiers all closed their eyes, their resolute faces already looking at death.
The fellow villagers and reservoir workers were not to be outdone. Like the People's Liberation Army, they straightened their backs that were usually not straight and gritted their teeth without retreating at all.
Bang bang!
The flood is coming!
This is the sound of floodwaters lapping at the river!
"Come on! Brothers, hold on!" Wu Feng stood in the middle of the dam. This is the critical moment. If they get through it, they will succeed. If they can't get through it, no one will see the sun tomorrow.
Thinking of this, Wu Feng shouted loudly.
"Brothers, think about the fertile land behind us and the folks in the six villages downstream. Can we bear to watch them leave us?"
"No! No! Absolutely not!!!"
"Ah! Let's grit our teeth and work harder. Our parents, brothers and sisters can't leave us, and this year's crops can't be grown in vain! We can't raise pigs, horses, cattle and sheep in vain!"
"Hold on! If the People's Liberation Army can do it, so can we!"
The human wall of more than 2,000 people, like a divine help, withstood the strongest impact of the first wave of the flood.
"Look, we seem to have succeeded, the flood has been stopped!" Someone finally raised his head, looked at the vast ocean in front of him, and shouted, "We succeeded!"
Only then did the others look up and were completely stunned by the endless flood in front of them!
The rain also became lighter at this moment, and even the sky became brighter.
"Everyone, hold on, it's not the time to rest yet! Although we have stopped the flood, the temporary dam may burst at any time!" Wu Feng looked at the flood and took a deep breath.
Wei Zhenhui, are you a god? How could you predict that the flood would break out of the dam
Fortunately, they brought enough sacks and straw bags, otherwise, there would really be no way to stop them.
But the temporary dam construction will not last long. What should we do now
Wu Feng carefully recalled what Wei Zhenhui had said to him.
They were in a hurry to set off and only had ten minutes. Wei Zhenhui spoke very quickly, not a single word was nonsense, but he was very thoughtful. Wu Feng recalled carefully...
Yes, flood discharge, Wei Zhenhui said, if the interception is successful, the flood will be discharged first.
Wu Feng immediately ordered, "Find a place, make a small opening, and release the flood!"
"Discharge the flood?" The villagers didn't understand. They had finally blocked it, so why did they make way for it
"Yes, the river can't hold so many cubic meters of flood water at once, so we open a hole and let a small amount of flood water flow out. In this way, the embankment reduces the pressure on the embankment, and the flood water can flow along the river channel and into the river downstream. Finally, It flows into the Yellow River.”
"Then why didn't the reservoir release the flood earlier, but waited until the reservoir was finally washed away?"
"Silly man, you don't know this. I heard that Director Li's brother-in-law contracted the reservoir and raised a lot of fish in it. He was reluctant to release water for us during the drought in spring, let alone the small fish have become bigger now, even more reluctant!"
"His brother-in-law gives Director Li a lot of money every year. How about Director Li never lets go? The water in the reservoir can only be stored but not released. If it rains heavily, of course it won't be able to hold it!"
"This kind of people are really hateful. If it weren't for the People's Liberation Army, people in our six villages wouldn't be able to drink the northwest wind next year!"
"If you drink the northwest wind, you might be dead!"
Only then did Wu Feng understand the reason why the reservoir was not releasing water. He felt sorry for the fish.
It turns out that in the eyes of some people, fish are worth more than people.
