Alcohol needs to be refined with high alcohol in the brewery in Qinling.

Li Wangyou hurried back to the cabin, hurriedly wrote a memorial to Li Er, and a letter to the beautiful boss, and handed it to Niu Wu, asking him to immediately arrange a fast boat to chase the boat that Su Changqing and the others were on.

If all goes well, these supplies will arrive in Xuzhou from Chang'an in ten days.

After arranging these things, Li Wangyou asked the governor of Xuzhou to immediately arrange the crew of the boats to search and rescue the people who were besieged by the flood.

Most of the five hundred forbidden soldiers were also sent out by Li Wangyou to search for survivors.

"Let's go, I'll go into Changzhi County to see the situation." Li Wangyou said and asked people to prepare the boat.

The governor of Xuzhou and a group of Xuzhou officials quickly dissuaded: "Master Hou, the flood has not receded at this time, and the situation in Changzhi County is not very optimistic. Why don't you wait on the big boat first? After the flood recedes It’s not too late to go into town.”

"Okay, don't say any more. Benhou is now the deposed emissary of Henan Province. How can he just ignore the disaster-stricken people in Changzhi County? Instead of going to see the situation in Changzhi County with his own eyes, his majesty asked how is Benhou Answer? Tell Your Majesty that I am afraid of accidents and have never been in Changzhi County?"

Li Wangyou's words made it difficult for the Xuzhou officials to continue persuading them, so they could only honestly follow them back into the boat.

Cheng Chumo and his group of dudes naturally wanted to go to Changzhi County together, together with Niu Wu and Li Fubuqu, the imperial guards, rowed out four or five small boats at a time, and dozens of people headed for the county seat of Changzhi County.

Since the city gate of Changzhi County had already been blocked with sandbags and soil, the small boats could only let the government soldiers on the city wall hang down the ropes and hanging baskets to connect Li Wangyou and his party to the city wall when they reached the city wall. .

The city wall of Changzhi County was originally about six or seven meters high, but at this time it has been nearly half submerged by the flood.

Li Wangyou estimated that the depth of the water was at least three meters.

Changzhi County is the seat of Xuzhou's state capital, and the city wall is considered to be the tallest.In the other counties besieged by the flood, the governor of Xuzhou said that the height of the city wall was only five or six meters, which could barely block the flood.

If the torrential rain falls for a few more days, I am afraid that even the walls of those county towns will not pass.

Most of the city walls in these prefectures and counties in the Tang Dynasty, including Chang'an City, were built of rammed earth, and the outer layer was covered with green bricks.

The city wall of Changzhi County was besieged by the flood, which temporarily isolated the flood and protected tens of thousands of people in the city.

However, there is also a huge crisis. The city wall made of rammed earth will easily collapse if it is soaked in water for a long time.

If the city wall of Changzhi County collapsed, the tens of thousands of people in the city would have nowhere to escape.

Fortunately, the torrential rain has stopped now. According to the observation of Xuzhou officials, the flood outside the city wall today has dropped a lot compared to yesterday.

Li Wangyou could also see this. The highest part of the imprint left by the flood on the city wall of Changzhi County had faded by two or three feet compared to the current waterline.

Waiting on the city wall of Changzhi County, looking up, there is devastation everywhere.

The city is full of turbid stagnant water, with all kinds of filth floating on it.

This is of course normal.

In Chang'an City back then, it was not because of a heavy rain that Li Wangyou couldn't bear it anymore and moved the idea of ​​building a public toilet.

The situation in Changzhi County is almost the same as that in Chang'an City back then. Not to mention that there are no public toilets, most people are used to defecating anywhere.

It's fine as usual, but when the flood hits, the situation in the city becomes extremely bad.

Datang is different from later generations, most of the buildings are one-story wooden houses, even the Governor's Mansion.

The stagnant water more than a foot deep has already made the people in the city cry, but there is nothing they can do.

A group of officials from Xuzhou, accompanied by Li Wangyou and his party, patrolled around the city wall of Changzhi County.

For the current situation in Changzhi County, even Li Wangyou has no better solution.

After all, it is impossible to transfer tens of thousands of people to other places, and the accumulated water in the city cannot be drained until the flood has receded.

Now it is only for these people to continue to endure for a while.

It was already noon when they boarded the city wall of Changzhi County.

If it is normal, at this time the city should be full of smoke and smoke, and it is time for every household to live and cook.

But because of the impact of the flood, Li Wangyou looked from the city wall, but there were only a few smoke rising from the city.

"How can people's food be guaranteed today?"

"The lower officials have already ordered people to count the food stored in the workshop. For households living in difficulties, a daily quota of corn is distributed to maintain their livelihood. As long as the food arranged by Lord Hou can arrive within five or six days, there will be no major problems. Fortunately, this Lord Marquis came in time, otherwise the consequences would be disastrous."

Li Wangyou nodded, feeling relieved, and at the same time very grateful.

Fortunately, when he was in Fenglingdu, because of the heavy rain, he thought of the flood in Xuzhou in the fourth year of Zhenguan.

This is the urgent secret to play Li Er, just to make the court prepare early.

He just didn't expect that this disaster relief errand would end up on his own head after going round and round.

But then again, if someone else changed, they might not be able to do better than him.At least in terms of prevention and treatment of infectious diseases, although Li Wangyou is not a doctor, he knows more than doctors of this era.

He is not a saint, but he is not a person with a heart of stone.

As the saying goes, if you are poor, you will be good for yourself, and if you are rich, you will benefit the world.

Now that he is the founder of the Tang Dynasty, he naturally wants to do something for this era, for the Tang Dynasty, and for the people of the Tang Dynasty.

"Brothers, how about we live in Changzhi County today?" Li Wangyou turned his head and smiled at the dudes.

Cheng Chumo laughed loudly and said, "Great kindness! I have never lived in such an environment. You are not afraid of Ziyou, how can I frown?"

"That's right, brother Chu Mo was the guy who didn't even frown when he was shot through the stomach by a feather arrow!" Fang Yiai joked beside him.

Cheng Chumo couldn't help being furious, and started chasing and killing Fang Yiai with his big iron bowl fist, causing everyone to laugh.

All the officials in Xuzhou couldn't help being astonished when they saw this scene.

This Lord Marquis, and those other young princes with incomparable identities, really have a big heart...

834 Marquis

Li Wangyou and the dudes wanted to spend the night in Changzhi County, but it was difficult for many Xuzhou officials. There was no other reason, there was no place suitable for Li Wangyou and the others...

Even Xuzhou Governor's Mansion was soaked in sewage. Li Wangyou and the others wanted to stay in Changzhi County, so where to live was a very specific question.

Li Wangyou's brain became hot, and after he said that he wanted to live in Changzhi County, he also regretted it a little.He really can't stand those messy things floating in the sewage.

But the words have already been spoken, how can they change their words immediately in front of everyone?

Li Wangyou looked around, but smiled.

The city wall of Changzhi County is a good place for camping.

So he immediately ordered the imperial army to fetch the tents accompanying the army and set up camp on the city wall. During this time, he and the dudes were going to stay here to supervise Xuzhou's disaster relief.
