When the temperature drops to around minus fifteen degrees Celsius, people use iron-tipped wooden poles over ten meters long to break up the ice floes, preventing them from growing too large and blocking the water flow.

But it was so cold the night before last that two workers in charge of this section took leave, which meant that the ice wasn't broken up in time, resulting in such a serious blockage.

If it weren't for the military coming to help, things would have been much more complicated.

"This is all we should do, County Chief Xu. When will the power be restored after the waterway is broken?"

"It should be this afternoon. It should be fully recovered by tonight."

Zhuang Mingcheng listened with a smile on his face.

He turned around and waved towards the hillside.

"Sister, fish, fish, so many big fish!"

On the hillside, Xiuxiu grabbed her sister's arm and excitedly pointed to the river.

"Shh, calm down. We've been eating fish for ages, aren't you tired of it yet?"

Lu Fangfang also saw the fish in the waterway; they must have been thrown out by the shells.

Thinking about the artillery barrage she had just witnessed, she felt incredibly satisfied.

"Sister, this is different. This is a big fish, they are all big fish."

This wasn't a tiny fish the size of a palm, but a big one. Xiuxiu even saw a fish nearly a meter long floating on the surface of the water, being carried downstream by the current.

She was extremely anxious; if it weren't for the fact that the artillery position was still there, she would have immediately gone to the shore to retrieve it.

On the artillery position in front of the waterway, Zhuang Mingcheng also saw fish floating on the water.

This is an unexpected bonus, we can't let it go to waste.

He quickly called to the soldiers to grab long wooden poles and go to the shore to retrieve it.
