Chapter 39 A brilliant plan? Diverting trouble to another place!
Wang Tiezhu suddenly grabbed a shovel and said, "I'll fight you!" He wiped his face fiercely, "My wife and children are still waiting for help..."
"We'll fight you too!" Dozens of men stood up from the mud like a row of stubborn trees.
"Since God won't give us a way to survive, we will fight our way out. Man can conquer nature!" The village cadres, led by the village party secretary Lin Shan, stood at the front.
The rain was pouring down, and there was only a chaotic roar between heaven and earth.
"Hurry up!" Xiaobai's voice was shattered by thunder, and she rushed towards the breach without looking back.
The flood had torn a three-meter-wide hole. In the turbid and raging waves, steel-like vines were growing wildly, weaving into a trembling big net in the torrent.
"Xiao An," Xiao Bai threw out a handful of plants, "Take your men to find dragon beard grass. The more the better. This thing swells when it comes into contact with water and can be used as a sandbag."
"Song Wan, go find Shuhua, and you two can collect herbs and medicine together. The child in the cave is in your care. Try not to get sick!"
"Xiaobai, what can I do!" Gu Mingyue staggered over, her pale face covered with raindrops. A bolt of lightning struck, illuminating her trembling eyelashes and her knuckles that were clenched until they turned white.
"Stay here and cooperate with Song Wan!"
Another wave of water rushed up and hit Gu Mingyue.
Xiao Bai quickly grabbed her and said, "Gu Mingyue, do you educated youth study so hard that you don't even know how to read? Use your brains and stop asking others what to do!"
Gu Zhongzhang was leading his men to block the gap with door panels when they were suddenly knocked down into the mud by the waves.
"Gu Zhongzhang!" Xiaobai pulled him up, "Take your people and repair the national highway! Let the follow-up support troops arrive as soon as possible!"
When Xiaobai climbed up Longya Mountain again to inspect the terrain, the entire mountain seemed to be shaking proudly, demonstrating its omnipresent natural power.
Xiaobai turned a blind eye. She wiped away the rain that blurred her eyes and looked into the distance.
There, there were faint lights, and it was obviously a town.
What's strange is that while it was pouring rain here, it was dry and rainy over there, as if they were separated by an invisible barrier.
"You mean to divert the water to Changhua County?"
Gu Zhongzhang's voice exploded in the rain.
His face was covered in blood, and his left arm was hanging unnaturally. They had just repaired the road when they unexpectedly encountered a landslide. Fortunately, Xiaobai arrived in time.
I just didn't expect to hear such explosive news just after returning from the brink of death.
"Are you crazy? How much explosives would it take to blow up Dragon God Mountain!"
"Think about it calmly. Is my suggestion a good idea? Our misfortune is just sweet dew to them."
Xiaobai pointed to the location of Changhua County on the map.
Gu Zhongzhang recalled the information about Changhua County he had seen in the archives room before.
It’s strange to say, Changhua County and Longshan Village are separated by Longshen Mountain, so the climate and environment should be the same.
However, for hundreds of years, Longshan Village has enjoyed good weather, fertile land and abundant products.
Changhua County, however, is notorious for its "difficult problems". It lacks water, the rivers have dried up, and the soil has become as hard as stone due to lack of water. Nothing can grow. In recent years, the land has even shown a trend of desertification, which is a headache for the government.
If this tactic of "diverting trouble to the east" is successful, it will not only solve the flood problem in Longshan Village, but also allow the land in Changhua County to be well watered. Maybe the future will be a different picture.
"Great!" Gu Zhongzhang slapped his thigh excitedly, "Why didn't I think of that! Kill two birds with one stone!"
But he frowned again the next second, "It's easier said than done. If it fails, both sides will suffer! Besides, the explosives I can provide are limited."
"Come, take a look at the map," Xiaobai pointed at the side of Longtou Cliff, "If we blow it up here, water will naturally flow into Changhua County from above. If we know the explosion point well, two or three explosive packs will be enough."
She looked up into the darkness, her tone heavy.
"But there are two points to note. First, the location of the explosives must be chosen accurately. Second, the evacuation work in Changhua County must be fast and stable."
The two looked at each other and understood what each other meant!
"I'm responsible for blowing up the mountain!"
“I’m in charge of Changhua County!”
The two said in unison.
"Lin Xiaobai, I can actually see the shadow of our Gu family in you. The way you spoke just now was especially like my uncle."
"Your uncle? His surname is Gu? Has he studied abroad?" Xiaobai was moved and asked calmly.
"Nonsense, of course my uncle's last name is Gu, but how do you know that he is studying abroad? Do you know my uncle?"
Gu Zhongzhang looked puzzled. This shouldn't happen? These two people were separated by thousands of miles and generations, so it was impossible for them to know each other.
"Oh, just asking." Xiaobai turned around suddenly, with vines waving at his sleeves, "Detonate the explosives in three hours, evacuate..."
"Leave it to me!" Gu Zhongzhang had already rushed towards the jeep, the engine making a dying roar in the rain.
——
The propellers of the military helicopter cut through the thick rain curtain, the roar of the engine drowned out the thunder, and it hovered over Longshan Village.
The cabin door was suddenly opened, and strong winds brought rain into the cabin. Tang Jingmo held the cabin door with one hand and squinted his eyes to scan the chaotic village below.
"Landing point confirmed, prepare for rappelling!"
Without hesitation, Tang Jingmo grabbed the rappelling rope and jumped into the wind and rain.
The moment the military boots hit the muddy ground, Gu Zhongzhang's hoarse roar was heard: "Tang Jingmo?! What are you doing——"
"Stop talking nonsense!" Tang Jingmo wiped the rain off his face. His uniform was already soaked and stuck to his body, but it did not affect his movements at all. "Where's Xiaobai? What's going on now?"
Gu Zhongzhang pointed to the Longya Mountain standing proudly in the distance, his face livid: "Xiaobai wants to blow up the mountain to induce flood..."
Tang Jingmo's eyes became stern. "Whose idea was it? Have you ever thought that the detonation point is on the side of the cliff. Once it explodes, the shock wave may cause the entire mountain to landslide!"
"It's too late!" Gu Zhongzhang gritted his teeth, "The explosives have been set!"
Tang Jingmo immediately ran towards Longtou Cliff.
Gu Zhongzhang grabbed him suddenly: "Are you crazy?! That place is now a death zone!"
Tang Jingmo shook off his hand, his eyes sharp as a blade: "When the explosion occurs, someone will be needed to assist her and control the scene! Either we die together, or we take a gamble!"
"Tang Jingmo! Don't mess around. If you go up now, you will only cause more trouble. What if you accidentally hurt someone..."
Gu Zhongzhang was chasing Tang Jingmo in the mud, but in the blink of an eye, even his figure disappeared.
Oh my god! What's the speed of this guy? !
The mountain was constantly shedding rocks under the heavy rain, and a low roar came from the distance, as if the earth was brewing its final roar.
A deafening roar came from a cliff in the distance.
Boom!!!
Flames shot up into the sky, debris flew everywhere, and the entire Longya Mountain seemed to be torn open by a giant beast. The flood was like a wild horse running away, roaring towards the dry river valley in Changhua County.
But what was even more terrifying was that the mountain began to tilt under the impact of the explosion, huge rocks rolled down, mud surged, and the entire cliff was collapsing!
Tang Jingmo dodged the rubble and rushed forward, his figure like a black lightning in the rain.
All he could see was the figure standing on the edge of the cliff, teetering on the edge of the cliff.
"Lin Xiaobai!!"
