Chapter 178 Flood Fighting

Xinqu ran to the river.

The sudden overflow of water can definitely be the peak of a flood.

Xinqu looked at the sandbags that had covered him and blocked him by the river, and then looked at the rocks and pieces of wood that rolled in a moment. He didn't know what happened there.

The river that I had been tossing upstream for a long time was still a rolling dam that had just begun to accumulate. The grass and soil had not yet formed a sticky state. They were washed away under the heavy rain.

Then it rushed down violently.

"Reinforce the embankment immediately until this mudslide passes! It won't be so dangerous in the future!" Xinqu yelled.

Grab the piled sacks from the back and pile them on the north river bank to give it enough resistance without being washed away.

The tribesmen took action one by one.

"Clan leader! Man is out!"

"Damn!" Xinqu turned around and looked over. On the upstream river bank ten meters away, a mudslide had already poured out.

Earth and rocks spewed out, and a busy naturalized man was hit and vomited blood on the spot.

Xinqu gritted his teeth and said, "Find a way to block it. Bird Egg, get on your horse and follow me downstream to break open the southern berm! Otherwise, the mudslide will flow to the north!"

Xin Qu turned around and immediately grabbed the reins of a trembling horse in the corner, pulled it and ran towards the river.

Bird Egg has mounted his horse and followed.

The two ran wildly southeast for a while. When Xinqu saw the rolling stones and soil, his expression changed drastically: "Don't go there! You'll get stuck!"

Unfortunately, it was too late, Bird Egg had already rushed over on horseback.

Then, as expected, amidst the whine of the horses, the bird's egg was overturned and about to fall into the mud: "Chief, help... Wow! There's a lot of water, cough!"

Bird Egg's face hurt from the rain, and he choked several times on his water.

"You bastard! Do you want to die?!" Xinqu was also anxious and subconsciously wanted to save people. He looked around and found that the only thing he could use was the horse under him and the dagger in his hand used to cut bamboo slips and wooden tablets. .

Look again at the bird eggs that are about to fall from the horse.

If he fell off his horse, the mudslide would swallow him directly.

"Whether it works or not depends on fate!" Xin Qu gritted his teeth and picked up the dagger.

"Clan leader! Help...Yu...Gululu...ahem...ouch!"

Just when Bird Egg panicked and called for help, he suddenly felt a sharp pain in his back, and then his whole body seemed weightless as if he had flown out.

The rain in front of him no longer hurt his eyes. Bird Egg suddenly saw a pile of dirt in front of him. He was so frightened that he hugged his body and rolled on top of it. He turned around several times and his whole body ached.

"Ouch..." Bird Egg sat up and felt dizzy for a while. He heard the sound again and looked over. Xinqu was lying next to him.

"Patriarch!"

"It's okay." Xin Qu's muffled voice came. He stood up with his right arm supported. His left arm was in severe pain. He didn't know if the bone was cracked or fractured, but he couldn't use any strength anyway.

"You kid, don't be so rough next time. Two horses were lost this time." Xinqu looked at the two horses rolled by the mudslide with great pain.

The iron is definitely gone. The mudslide may look like mud on the surface, but underneath the mud is rocks. It's like a meat grinder. If a person goes in, all their flesh and blood may be rolled directly into a pulp.

"You boy, you are so lucky!" Xinqu pinched his left arm, it hurt!

"Hehe..." Bird Egg scratched his head, feeling a little embarrassed.

This guy was lucky, so he rushed to save him and stabbed the horse's butt with a dagger. The pain was so painful that the horse roared and rushed towards this guy. It fell to the ground with such a huge impact, but it didn't seem to be hurt at all, and he But he was injured.

Seeing him smiling like this, Xin Qu was furious: "You're laughing! Do you know how dangerous it was just now? When the rain stops, you can find the two horse corpses for me, and take a good look at it yourself. If you were involved, What will happen to you!"

"I was wrong." Bird Egg lowered his head.

"Okay, hurry up and get out of there. You can only run to the north. Don't make any stops."

Xinqu didn't have much time to think about getting angry, and hurriedly walked north to find the weak point of the south embankment.

Grab the top sandbag with one hand.But he turned around and glanced at the field behind him. This was recently opened. If this leaked...

If the land is lost, everyone will perish!
Manpower is still the most important!
Xinqu took a deep breath, and Bird Egg quickly followed and pulled away the sandbag: "Chief, let me help you."

"Okay." Xinqu nodded, and the two of them worked for a while, and suddenly Bird Egg shouted, "Chief, the flood is coming out here."

“One last sack and then run!”

Xin Qu grabbed a bag with a heavy tone, and Bird Egg also helped.

As the two of them worked together, after the bag was torn off, the mudslide began to rush out of the gap.

"run!"

Xin Qu ran for his life, this kind of behavior was fatal!

Let the slave come next time!

boom!
Bird Egg heard the roar behind him and turned around. The mudslide completely destroyed the temporary berm in the southern section. Like a giant beast, it devoured more than 3000 acres of farmland that had been sorted out by the Xin family in the south.

These three thousand acres were directly destroyed!

But with the outlet, the mudslide passed instantly.

Xinqu stepped on the embankment opposite the city gate and watched the debris flow subside. The tribesmen in Beidi let out excited shouts!
"Yi! Yi! Yi!!!!"

The shouts were loud, and Xinqu smiled briefly, then glanced at the bird eggs behind him: "Are there any injuries?"

Only then did Bird Egg come back to his senses: "Oh, Chief, I'm fine, just a scratch. The injury just now was actually the same as when I first started practicing horse riding. I was often thrown off by horses. I'm used to it."

Xin Qu nodded slightly: "I'll check again later. Let's go, the tribe has moved a big log and is about to put it down."

When Xinqu and Bird Egg walked across the temporary wooden bridge and returned to the corridor, they were cold and hungry. They wiped their bodies a little and changed into dry clothes.

Just when Xinqu drank half a bowl of ginger soup, bit into the naan, and put something on his stomach.

A figure hurriedly came over.

"Qu...are you...injured?"

Yao Gong came to see Xin Qu and was surprised to see Xin Qu's left arm tied with linen and wood chips.

"The bone is cracked. Fix it to speed up the healing." Xinqu replied, "Brother Gong, what's wrong?"

"Don't I have someone stationed at the market in the north? They sent someone to tell me that the rolling dam you built collapsed and was washed down by the flood. He was worried that it would flood our place, so he quickly sent someone here .

And when I heard a roar before, I was worried that something was wrong, so I hurried over to take a look. "

Only then did Yao Gong reveal his intention.

"It just flowed out. Fortunately, only the three thousand acres in the south were flooded. It needs to be repaired later."

Xin Qu said, but his cheek was actually twitching and sore.

Not only the mudslides, but also subsequent rains will wash away the soil in the south. It can basically be concluded that the land in the south is ruined.

It was finally reclaimed. If you want to resume the reclamation, you need to remove all the stones. This consumes a lot of manpower.

It is estimated that we will have to wait until next year at the earliest to have food before we can start the trouble.

"That's it. As long as everything is fine." Yao Gong felt relieved, "Since there's nothing serious, I'll go back and rest first, and you should be careful."

"Okay." After seeing Yao Gong leave, Xin Qu asked the tribesmen who came back from the inspection.

It is certain that the peak of the flood has passed and the rain has begun to lighten up.

Xinqu thought about it and finally breathed a sigh of relief.

This means that this sea beast did not land directly in Haihe, but should have gone to Liaoning or North Korea.

In a few days, the sun should be very bright.
