After defecting to Cao Ying, he was appointed as a "Diannong Xiaowei", specialized in managing military and civilian settlements, reclaiming wasteland, and building water conservancy. He achieved great success and was commended by the court. Unfortunately, no one is perfect. Fei also has two shortcomings, one is that he is too greedy to drink, and the other is that he loves to take advantage of small things!

During the administration of the military settlement, Ding Fei's old illness relapsed. He used a sick cow of his own to secretly replace the strong cow of the government. It happened that the prime minister - Cao Cao rectified the administration of officials, and he couldn't let it go when his fellow countrymen broke the law!

As a result, Ding Fei was dismissed from office, imprisoned in the court prison, and successfully served the "iron rice bowl". People live next to each other, and they all like to drink, and gradually get to know each other, and even become good friends!

After Xiao Yi was released from prison, he took back the power of soldiers and horses. He believed that Ding Fei was a talent who would be of great use in the future, so he used some special means to get him out of the prison, appointed him as the chief secretary of the army, and treated him normally. Very thick, and often drink a little wine together!

"The battle of the Northern Expedition has reached a critical juncture. The city of Ye will not be broken for a day, and the war will not be extinguished for a day. However, the enemy army is fierce and it is difficult to win. I want to use water instead of soldiers to eliminate the Karasuma, Xianbei, and Liaodong tribes. Sagittarius, it is a pity that we encountered a little difficulty, please come here tonight..."

Xiao Yi pointed at the sand table, described his grand plan and the two difficulties he encountered, and brought out a jar of fine wine and a box of gold horseshoes. If he wants the old greedy cat to contribute, he must give some favors!

"The subordinates were originally dealing with crimes, and with the help of Da Sima, they started a new life. They must do their best to repay the kindness of their friends. The Zhang River is fast-moving and rushing non-stop. It is not an easy task to guide the direction of the water flow. Subordinates remember..."

Ding Fei spoke impassionedly, with a look of gratitude. At the same time, he picked up the fine wine and took a big gulp. Then he dragged a box of gold over and sat directly under his buttocks. His old problems of drinking and greed for money have not changed at all!

However, an expert is an expert. When talking about the river situation and digging dikes to divert water, it is quite powerful. After a little thought, he proposed a solution:

The first is to control the direction of water flow. According to Ding Fei, when Ximen Bao ruled Ye, a canal was dug from the upper reaches of Zhangshui River to the west gate of Yecheng. It was very convenient to transport goods, and it was easy to use For hundreds of years!

In the early Eastern Han Dynasty, with the accumulation of silt and geographical changes, the canal gradually became difficult to sail. In order to transport goods, people re-dug a canal in the lower reaches of the Zhangshui River. The old canal was completely abandoned, leaving only a dry ditch!

When Ding Fei was young, he used to travel around Kyushu to check the trends of mountains, rivers and rivers. He also came to the area of ​​Yecheng. According to the records in ancient books, he found the old canal. It was buried under the wind and sand, but the traces were faint. visible!

It rains heavily and the water flow is turbulent. As long as the nearby dykes are dug and the floodwater hits the silt, you can go straight to Yecheng along the old canal road without worrying about the backflow of the water, while the 10,000+ people in Karasuma, Xianbei, and Liaodong, It's all food for fish and turtles!

The second is to control the flow of the flood, only flooding the barracks of foreign races, and not hurting the people of the Han family.

Floods are flooding and flowing for thousands of miles. It is difficult to check the water situation, unless you have a pair of clairvoyance, look down at the ground from a high altitude, and judge when to seal the gap according to the submergence situation. If you start early, it will be difficult to submerge the enemy camp. Yecheng is also in danger!

As for the time to dig the embankment, just before the sun is clear, the heavy rain will not stop, the river will flood, and the enemy will be released to destroy the enemy; when the heavy rain stops, the river level will drop, just to seal the gap, so as not to get out of hand. It has to be just right!

The problem is that people have misfortunes and good fortunes, and the sky has unpredictable situations. Who has the ability to predict the weather? Who has clairvoyant eyes to check the changes in water potential? Unbelievable!

"Hehe! ---Thousand-mile divine eye, predicting cloudy weather, there are indeed some difficult things to do, but I just happen to be able to do it. Using water instead of soldiers, this plan can be done!"

After listening to Ding Fei's narration, Xiao Yi sneered after a little thought. He also went to college, and he knew astronomy, geography, and a lot of natural knowledge. This time, he can apply what he has learned!

Chapter 1014 The world protects and bestows the golden turtle!

"There are water toads screaming in the river, and the old man who screamed was upset, so he grabbed a few for dinner... Quack, they all ran away!"

Upstream of the Zhangshui River - on the dam on the north bank, Ding Fei, wearing a bamboo hat and coir raincoat, stood in the pouring rain, sang folk tunes, checked the changes in the water potential, made various marks, and took out wine gourds from time to time. Take a few sips to dispel the moisture on your body!

Ground squirrels led more than a dozen brothers, carrying the earth-digging artifact-the worry-free shovel, and followed closely. Wherever there is a mark, they will make a hole to check the internal situation of the embankment. Is it hard rock or soft? Loess, looking for the best location to break the embankment!

Breaking the embankment and opening the river is full of dangers. If you are not careful, you will be swallowed by the raging river. This kind of high-risk and high-tech work can only be done by the "digger army" who is proficient in civil engineering!

Dian Wei, Cao Xing and dozens of soldiers, with bows and arrows on their backs and sharp knives in their hands, were distributed around the embankment to protect the safety of Ding Fei, Chinchilla and others. Not good!

Xiao Yi was also in the team, and did not interfere with the work of the others, but stood on the high place of the embankment, looking up at the sky from time to time to observe the size of the rain and whether there was any sign of clearing up, but staring at Zhangshui, his thoughts fluctuated, and he was worried about gains and losses ...

Substituting water for soldiers and submerging the enemy camp is definitely a dangerous move. If the matter is successful, Yecheng can be broken with a single hand, and the Northern Expedition will be more than half completed.

If the plan fails, the Zhangshui will swell thousands of miles, and the cities and towns in the south of Jizhou will become a country of water. The people of the Han family will die in the flood and more than a million people will be displaced. How can I bear such a heinous crime?

"The long sky, the vast land, and the ancestors of China, hope to protect Wushou, kill all the foreign cavalry, and revive the glory of the great man..."

Facing Zhangshui, Xiao Yi looked at his nose, his nose at his mouth, and his mouth asked his heart. He prayed silently in his heart, hoping to get some enlightenment. Will this battle be won or not?

"Wow!--Wow! Whoa!"

"Ron!--Ron! Ron!"

........................

The sky didn't respond, and the earth didn't give any hints. Only the cold rainwater poured down and gathered into the Zhangshui. 'The bang!

Amidst the undulating waves, one can vaguely see an overflow dam, which is the crystallization of the wisdom of the ancients. It is to build a lower dam in the middle of the river. If it is a dry season, the dam can stop the river water and flow into the ditch continuously to irrigate the water on both sides. Good land!

If in the rainy season, the river floods, it can overflow the dam to release the flood. The land in the south of Jizhou can keep harvest from droughts and floods, and ripen every year, it is because of this kind of "overflow dam". Besides, at the top of the dam On the ground, stands a stone statue of Dayu, which is three or four feet high and weighs tens of thousands of catties!

King Yu wears a bamboo hat and a short jacket. He holds a long handle in his right hand and holds it forward with his left finger. He has a firm gaze and looks down.

According to legend, when Ximen Bao ruled Ye, there was a dragon infested in Zhangshui, which made waves repeatedly. People failed to build dams several times and drowned many peasants, so that no one dared to start construction!

Later, an expert pointed out that a stone statue of King Yu should be built on the top of the embankment to deter the troublesome dragon, and everything would be safe. Build embankments, repair dams, open rivers... a statue of King Yu must be erected, and pray for the protection of the gods!

The legend is unbelievable, but the stone statues on the embankment have a certain function, that is, to measure the water level. The stone statue of King Yu is three feet six feet high, and it is very beautifully carved. If the feet of the statue are on the ground, it is the dry season, and it is necessary to store water in time!

If it is higher than the waist of the statue, it means that the river is flooding, and you must be prepared for flood control, because the heavy rain has caused the Zhangshui to rise rapidly, and it has already approached the shoulder level. This has never happened in recent decades!

With such turbulent water, as long as the dam is dug, the flood will flow down, and the 10,000+ troops in Karasuma, Xianbei, and Liaodong will surely be wiped out. Similarly, if the water cannot be controlled, the harm will be enormous...

..................................................................

"Crack! - Crack! Crack!"

While contemplating, Xiao Yi heard a strange noise. After searching with his head down, he found a guy by the river, the size of a fist, covered in golden color, and very cute in appearance. It turned out to be a money turtle, crawling in the muddy water, playing happily play!

The money turtle, also known as the "golden thread turtle", is golden in color, cute in appearance, and has a long lifespan. It can live for hundreds of years. On the official seal, it is an animal representing auspiciousness!

This is a kind of aquatic turtle, very good at swimming. It likes shade and tranquility by nature. It usually lurks in the burrow and is in a semi-sleeping state. Only when it rains heavily will it climb out of the burrow and drift around with the current. , small fish, shrimp... as food, it is a kind of omnivorous turtle!

"Pray to the sky, pray to the earth, I didn't see the gods appearing, but I sent a money turtle. Is this my reply?"

Xiao Yi picked up the little turtle and looked it over carefully. The carapace was golden yellow, and each piece had four 'annual rings', indicating that it was just four years old, and it was still a little water turtle. Because of timidity and fear, its whole body shrank. Entering the tortoise shell, there is only a pair of bright black eyes, looking out timidly...

Among medical classics, there is a record of the golden tortoise, its carapace can be used as medicine, nourishing yin, clearing away heat, detoxifying, nourishing the kidney... There are many benefits, and thinking about its living habits, Xiao Yi smiled knowingly, and put the little golden tortoise Put it in your arms, this is a rare treasure!

"Who are you, why are you staying on the embankment, and what are your sneaky intentions?"

While everyone was surveying, a group of Yuan Jun came from a distance, about 80 to [-] people, in addition to knives, guns and sticks, they also held shovels, hammers, wooden stakes, ropes...it should be a river patrol camp!

The leader is tall and slender, with a face as white as jade, eyes as bright as stars, with three long beards, and a distinctive temperament. It is Xinpi, a famous scholar in Hebei!

Brothers Xin Ping and Xin Pi were originally under the command of the governor of Qingzhou. After the death of the eldest son Yuan Tan, they were also implicated. By bribing Yuan Shang around, he finally escaped a catastrophe!

However, capital crimes can be avoided, living crimes cannot be escaped, the original official position cannot be kept, so it can only be used by demotion. Hebei celebrity, fell to this point, but also a bitter tear!

Patrolling the river is hard work, and every time it rains heavily, the road is muddy, and no one wants to suffer when he takes three steps and stumbles, so he pushes Simpi out to check the dikes on both banks to see if there is any water seepage. Timely fix it!

"Brothers, don't misunderstand, we are under the command of Lord Zhengnan, and we are ordered to measure the water level, so as not to overwhelm the fertile fields on both sides of the river!"

Dian Wei, Cao Xing, Chinchilla and others pretended to be the subordinates of the judge and tried to confuse them. At the same time, they held their weapons tightly and were ready to fight at any time. Although they were few in number, they were warriors who had experienced many battles and killed each other. Not difficult!

The problem is that if Simpi and others never return, Yuan Jun will be suspicious, and then send a large team to search. At that time, it will be impossible to dig the embankment, and 7000 people will be exposed. The consequences will be disastrous!

"I know most of the subordinates of Shen Biejia, how do you think you are a little... huh?"
