Upon hearing this, Chen Zhong's face immediately turned serious.
"If we don't go there for the demolition, are there any other better locations? Haven't you discussed this with anyone else?"
"Not yet. This matter involves the safety of Mr. Lu and his family, so we dare not be careless. However, it would be more difficult to carry out the demolition from other places, and it is very likely that we will not be able to clear it completely in one go!"
"Okay, don't tell anyone for now, don't tell a single person, understand?"
"No problem, I promise I won't tell a single person. By the way, Commander Chen, what do you think we should do next with these alluvial plains?"
Chen Zhongzheng paced back and forth in the room a few times: "If we don't use explosives, and instead help Lu Yuan reinforce the ground, could we solve these problems?"
"Of course it's possible, but the actual amount of alluvial deposits in the plains is over a million tons, and it's impossible to clear out the rubble in a short time!"
Moreover, the problem we face is very serious. If we use a combination of machinery and manual labor to dig, it could cause enormous casualties. The superstorm outside is something ordinary people cannot withstand!
"Okay, I understand. Let's discuss and decide what to do after the meeting. As for the demolition, don't tell anyone yet!"
Then Chen Zhongzheng got up and left the room, returning to the conference room where he briefly explained the situation to everyone.
However, he did not mention the blasting, because if this breach were to be made and problems arose during flood control, the responsibility would fall on his shoulders. Therefore, he dared not be careless about this matter.
After pondering for a while, Chen Zhongzheng decided to send someone to tell Lu Yuan about the situation.
During the meeting, Chen Zhongzheng discussed with the personnel of each fortress that they would hold another meeting to discuss how to deal with the alluvial plain outside after the construction situation outside was confirmed.
After the meeting, Chen Zhongzheng returned to his residence.
He felt that ever since he became the regional administrator of this core area fortress, he had less and less time.
He always comes home very late, and he still has to keep busy for a while after he gets home.
Fortunately, the problems are mostly under control. Xiao Pinghai has already led his men to start laying telephone lines, and the people in each fortress have also begun to deploy their personnel to prepare for construction.
That evening, Zhou Tong drove an armored vehicle and left the fortress.
The wind and rain were heavy outside, and a huge, vortex-like cloud was right above us, as if we could reach out and touch the clouds if we stood up straight.
Zhou Quan did not find any more huge fortress panels being blown down on the way. Although he did not like Guo Jialiang, he was surprised by the people's ability to take action when they were forced into a corner.
The armored vehicle's massive wheels rolled over puddles, and as it drove on, the two huge tire tracks were quickly washed away by the torrential rain.
At this moment, Lu Yuan was planning to re-plan the excavation route because water seepage had already occurred ahead. If they continued digging, it was very likely that a flood would rush in, and it would be almost impossible to remedy the situation then.
Just as Lu Yuan was about to continue digging, a beam of flashlight light shone in from the entrance of the tunnel.
Aunt Liu stood at the entrance of the tunnel and shouted loudly into it.
"Mr. Lu, Mr. Lu, Zhou Tong is here to see you!"
Upon hearing Aunt Liu's words, Lu Yuan's face immediately showed a look of shock.
"What the hell? Has Old Zhou gone mad? Coming to see me in this weather? Does he have a death wish?!"
So, Lu Yuan put down what he was holding, wiped his hands on his already stained clothes, and walked out.
There stood a man outside the tunnel; it was Zhou Tong.
Zhou Tong crossed his arms and looked at Lu Yuan's dirty appearance, and couldn't help but burst into laughter.
"Good heavens, this must be the most disheveled I've ever seen you!"
Lu Yuan waved his hand helplessly: "There's nothing I can do. That's the problem with digging holes. By the way, why did you suddenly decide to come to me today? The super storm outside has winds of around level fourteen. It's too risky to come out at this time!"
Zhou Tong waved his hand dismissively: "It's alright. I drove an armored vehicle here today. Even if the wind is strong, it can't blow an armored vehicle away. I called you here today mainly because I have something to tell you!"
"Oh? You have something to say to me? You wouldn't come here without a reason. Tell me!"
Lu Yuan led the other person to the lounge and pointed to the sofa next to him: "Sit wherever you like, I won't bother you, you should know this place very well!"
Zhou Tong didn't stand on ceremony and sat down on the sofa, saying softly, "It's like this, the main reason I came to see you today is because there's something I need to tell you."
The alluvial plain above has now accumulated a large amount of floodwater and debris, forming an alluvial fan. As time goes on, the depth of the floodwaters above is gradually increasing!
Then Zhou Tong explained the potential dangers that might have arisen.
After hearing this, Lu Yuan's face immediately showed a look of sudden realization.
"I never expected that we would actually encounter a problem!"
"Who can argue with that? If the alluvial fan plain is allowed to continue expanding, it could very well form a dam, and the water that is being blocked will slowly increase. If this water is not drained away as soon as possible, it could cause the underground fortress tunnels to be flooded!"
