Chapter 1229 The flood has arrived, it is too late to regret
Just like Murphy's Law, the more you fear something, the more it will happen. The more people in the south of the Yangtze River were worried about the continued heavy rain, the more the torrential rain continued, and there was no sign of stopping after a day and two nights.
The pond is full, the river is full, and the stream is also soaring, it seems that if there is a disagreement, it will flood.
The next day, after Zhu Pingan made a tour, he deeply felt that the flood disaster was imminent.
"Zhang Dianli, I appoint you as the head of Qinghe River, responsible for the management of Qinghe River and flood control; you for"
Zhu Pingan summoned all the subordinate officials in the county government, drawing on the successful experience of the modern river chief system in our country, and appointed all the subordinate officials in the county government as the chiefs of the main rivers, streams, and lakes in the Jingnan area, responsible for organizing the corresponding rivers, streams, and rivers. , Pond management and protection, the current main task is flood control work.
Of course, Zhu Ping'an himself claimed a river, the Sanli River outside the city. This river has the heaviest task of flood control.
After appointing the head of the river, Zhu Pingan planned several high-lying and open flood shelters based on the daily inspections, built rain shelters, prepared enough food, drinking water, cooking stoves, bedding and other materials, and ordered the High-risk villages such as rivers and lakes should be moved to flood shelters in advance to avoid flood risks.
"Boom, boom, folks in Xiaozhao Village have all paid attention. In view of the continuous rainfall, the Fengxi River has soared, and there is a danger of bursting the embankment. The county has ordered Xiaozhao Village to quickly transfer to the Gaolipo flood shelter area."
Amidst the wind and rain, a yamen servant, wearing a coir raincoat, carrying a yellow bag, and a small red flag on the back, came to Xiaozhao Village on a yellow puma.
This is the ancient standard "Shui Bao" dress, anyone who sees this attire will know it is Shui Bao.
"What, I'm not a servant, am I?! It's raining and you want us to leave home?!"
"No way, big brother, are you sure you didn't make a mistake? Why did the county lord suddenly let us transfer?!"
After the villagers heard this, they resisted instinctively. They were unwilling to move to some flood control area in heavy rain.
Firstly, it is raining heavily outside now, so it will be a pain to relocate; secondly, the Chinese have always had the nature of relocating, and when they think of leaving their homes and relocating, even temporarily, they will resist in their hearts; thirdly, they Didn't the embankment of the Fengxi River at the east end of the village be repaired, why should it be moved?
"Fathers and folks in Xiaozhao Village, how many of my brains dare to falsely pass on the order of the county magistrate? Ladies and gentlemen, this is not alarmist talk, I just came from the dam of Fengxi River, and the water of Fengxi River has almost reached the top of the dam." Sitting on the horseback, the guard said loudly to the folks in Xiaozhao Village.
"What? Really?!" People didn't expect the water of Fengxi River to rise so fast.
"Lizheng, who is Lizheng from Xiaozhao Village?" the guard shouted.
"That's the little old man." Li from Xiaozhao Village was just coming out of the crowd. He was an old man in his sixties.
"The Gaolipo flood shelter area is located in Gaolipo. Do you always know the location? It doesn't matter if you don't know. There are signposts along the way, and red ropes are tied to the trees. You always take your parents and villagers to follow the red rope at the entrance of the village. It takes about five Around the mile is the Gaolipo flood shelter area, where the county lord has reserved a resettlement site for Xiaozhao Village. I will leave this place to you, and I will go to Wangzhuang to convey the transfer order."
After explaining to Li Zheng of Xiaozhao Village, the guard hurriedly rode his horse towards Wangzhuang to convey the relocation order.
"Men and young men, you have heard what the messenger said just now. I just came down from the Fengxi embankment, and what the messenger said is true. The water in Fengxi is about to collapse the top of the embankment, just an elbow's height away. Yes. If the county lord hadn't ordered us to repair the dam, the dam would have been washed away by Fengxi long ago, and our Xiaozhao village would have been soaked in the flood. The county lord bought us time to escape, and we can't let the county down. Thanks to your kindness and hard work, all the young and old have hurried back to collect the gold, silver and soft goods, bring dry food, help the old and the young, and we go to the Gaolipo flood avoidance area."
Although Lizheng was old, he was in good spirits. He clapped his hands and said to the villagers, directing them to move.
"Lizheng, do we have to move? Let's go, what's going on with our house? What if a thief breaks in?"
Someone is nervous about the house and doesn't want to move it.
"You poor boy, is human life more important, or what is important in your house?! At what time, you can't tell the priority! Even if you don't care about your own life, you still have to think about your father, mother, wife and children Your life?!" Li Zheng scolded angrily upon hearing the words.
"Lizheng, you go, I won't go, if the flood really comes, I will climb to the roof."
Some villagers thought they were smart and said.
"You still climb on the roof, why don't you climb to the sky. Your house is a mud house. When the flood comes, the house will collapse!"
Lizheng heard the words, and scolded even harder.
"Transfer them all to me. No one can stay in Xiaozhao Village. Whoever stays in Xiaozhao Village, I will open a ancestral hall and drive him out of Xiaozhao Village." Lizheng did not give everyone a chance to discuss, and directly ordered. .
Hearing that Li Zheng threatened to be expelled from the village, the villagers dared not make any further claims, and went back to pack their things honestly.
In this era, once expelled from the village, life would be difficult. If you have no land or house, you will become a refugee.
Under Lizheng’s dominance, the villagers of Xiaozhao Village helped the old and the young, carried their burdens, drove pigs, cattle and sheep, etc., and began to migrate.
When Jingnan began to mobilize and transfer, the adjacent Taiping County and Linhai County were already flooded, especially Taiping County, the situation was even more serious. In Taiping County, there are many rivers such as Xiangxi River, Machuan River, Qingxi River, Yangxi River, Shuxi River, Zhuxi River and Lingyang River, and the terrain is somewhat complicated, which is prone to floods. Last night, the Machuan River and Qingxi River in Taiping County had flooded, and several villages downstream of the two rivers were razed to the ground by the flooded water overnight.
During the daytime today, the situation in Taiping County was even worse. The flooded river roared like a crazy beast and flooded more than ten miles. The town of Machuan, which is the closest to the Machuan River, was flooded.
The new county magistrate of Taiping County rushed to organize flood control and disaster relief, but it was too late and there was no way to recover. The urgent reports of floods came one after another, and even Taiping County was flooded, and the rainwater in the courtyard of the Taiping County Government did not reach the ankles.
Recalling back then, the magistrate of Taiping regretted that his intestines were green, and he went crazy. He found the letter he discarded from the trash can, ignored the stains on it, and stuffed it into his mouth.
