Although I think there is nothing wrong with what I learned on paper, but if I can see it with my own eyes, it will be a little different after all.

Cheng Xue was dizzy when she heard that, but she probably understood that someone with a weapon or something would be easily struck by lightning in a thunderstorm.

"Tell the soldiers to squat down as long as they can, and stay away from that flag."

It was the flag of Xing Seoul City, but I didn't expect it to act as a lightning rod.

"Okay, after watching you all go down, it's not too safe here."

Lu Chensheng looked at Erhu and the others, waved his hands and said.

Erhu and the others saluted respectfully, then turned and left.

Cheng Xue looked at this scene with a strange expression. After being taught by Lu Chensheng, these children became more and more incomprehensible.

Sometimes I still look at them and come to test the bow and arrow, saying that it is to test the force of the bow and arrow, and then set the initial speed of gravity or something to calculate the arrow's foothold.

However, what horrified her was that in the end, these students actually calculated correctly!

Afterwards, tests such as the elevation angle and the landing point were calculated.

At that time, Cheng Xue only felt that something in her mind had collapsed, so the bow and arrow could still be calculated like this?

Now the other party came to this city wall again, just to watch the lightning strike the flag this time?The other side was born to know why he hit the flag.

Each of these students looked terrifying.

Thinking of that time, Chengxue talked about this matter with Lu Chensheng, and Lu Chensheng directly waved his hand to indicate that it was nothing.

It is really nothing to calculate the foothold of the bow and arrow.

It's really powerful. After a plane crash, it is possible to calculate where the black box of the plane is most likely to fall, but there is a lot of knowledge to be used in this.

I remember that there was such a powerful person in later generations who did it.

In addition to this, mathematics can also be used in many other fields.

"Your student is so powerful, I'm afraid they even know how the lightning is formed?"

Cheng Xue calmed down and said something jokingly.

"I know, this is not a particularly difficult knowledge."

Upon hearing this, Lu Chensheng responded directly.

This light and fluffy sentence stunned Chengxue in place.

Is that lightning in the sky?It is impossible for people to go to the sky, and they can only look at it from the ground. How can they know how the lightning came from?

Why does this person look like he knows everything?

Cheng Xue's face was full of horror.

Lu Chensheng didn't pay attention to so much, still frowning at this moment, looking at everything in the distance.

It seems that this rainstorm will not last for a long time, but who can say for sure?

If the rain is too big, if it stays for a long time, the flood of Dacang Kingdom will come.

I don't know what the current situation in Da Cang Kingdom is.

Logically speaking, there is still some distance between Xinghan City and Dacang Kingdom. There are heavy rains here, and there may not be heavy rains anywhere on the other side.

On the contrary, it may be bright and sunny.

It's just that he doesn't know the situation in Da Cang Kingdom, so Lu Chensheng can only wait.

Lu Chensheng sent someone to Da Cang Kingdom, and will send back any news as soon as possible.

After staying for a while, the heavy rain poured down, Chengxue hurriedly urged Lu Chensheng to go back.

Lu Chensheng herself said that it was not safe to stay here, how dare she let Lu Chensheng stay here, what if something bad happened to her?

Moreover, even if there is no thunder and lightning, it is not good to be rained all the time.

Lu Chensheng didn't intend to stay any longer, and quickly returned to the residence under Chengxue's urging. Xiaoyu boiled hot water for Lu Chensheng to take a bath to relieve the cold.

And before Lu Chensheng had finished bathing for a long time, the torrential rain outside also dissipated, and the smell mixed with mud rose up outside.

"Beyond the Great Wall is beyond the Great Wall. After all, there was a heavy rain, and it stopped after not much rain."

Lu Chensheng shook his head watching this scene, but he was thinking about what happened on the other side of the canal.

Chapter 457 Flooding

There was a heavy rain, although the amount of rain was not much, but it still fell a little.

The side of the canal has been soaked by rainwater, so it is better to dig.

Lu Chensheng stepped on the muddy road to the area where the canal was dug. The excavation was divided into two sections, one was excavated by the Tartars, and the other was excavated by the soldiers.

We are both responsible for each other for a period of time, and we can count as living in peace.

When Lu Chensheng was inspecting the canal, the situation in Da Cang Kingdom was not so good.

Most places began to rain one after another, and depending on the situation, the rain did not mean to stop for a while.

If it continues like this, it will only be a matter of time before the river floods.

Memorials from various places began to be reported to the palace one by one. According to past experience, the flood is imminent.

"What about Xing Seoul City? Doesn't it mean that their progress is going well, can they manage the flood this year?"

The emperor of the Great Cang Kingdom looked at the memorials piled up in front of him, and at a glance, they were all reporting the heavy rain in various places.

The amount of water in these places will add up at that time, and the downstream will definitely be unlucky!

Originally, there were a lot of waterways in Dacang, and they were all intertwined. The sudden increase in the amount of water upstream would only bring pressure to the downstream.

If one is not good, it is common for the upper reaches to drown together.

The reason why the memorials were presented so quickly was due to the accumulated experience in the past, so that the officials from all over the place did not dare to neglect after seeing such weather.

The weather was reported directly in advance and there was a possibility of flooding based on the amount of rain.

The emperor of the Great Cang Kingdom, looking at this letter of memorial at this moment, naturally has a somewhat ugly expression on his face.

Xing Seoul said that he was sure that the flood could be cured, and he put most of his hopes on the other party.

The main reason is that there is no money left, and the annual budget is limited, which was originally allocated to the Ministry of Industry for water control.

Now it is directly given to Xing Seoul City. Without money, the Ministry of Industry has no way to control the water.

"Your Majesty, why don't you send someone to Xing Seoul City to ask again?"

The Minister of the Ministry of Industry was also helpless, and could only say with his hands up.

But no matter what, I still breathed a sigh of relief.

At this time in previous years, it was the time when he had the most headaches, and the emperor could not avoid reprimanding him for not doing things well.

When he absolutely handed over the money to Xing Seoul and asked Xing Seoul to deal with the flood before, he objected.

After all, it always feels unreliable to leave this kind of thing to outsiders.

Now this matter is beyond his fault.

The emperor above heard the words, thought about it, and could only nod his head. He had already reached this point, and he could only send someone to Xing Seoul City to ask about the situation.

It's a pity that the money has already been given, and now even if you want to go back on it, you can't do it.

Thinking of this, the emperor of the Great Cang Kingdom suddenly became distraught and broke down.

That guy couldn't cure the water, so he just asked for money in advance, right?

If there is such a possibility, it is not impossible.

Thinking about it this way, the Emperor of the Great Cang Kingdom became a little flustered. It is a trivial matter to be cheated of this money, but what is the face of the country?

Thinking of this, he glanced down at the minister below.

Seeing the emperor looking directly at him, Minister of the Ministry of Industry felt that something was wrong with his eyes, and he was also a little nervous.

"Your Majesty, do you have any other orders?"

"Isn't Lu Chensheng of this star Seoul just a vain name?"

The emperor looked at the minister, and then asked.

"In vain?"

The minister was stunned for a moment when he heard the words, and then he immediately came back to his senses. Is this the emperor saying that the other party is a liar?

If it is really cheated of money, it is equivalent to the emperor being cheated, which is a big deal!

In order to appease the hearts of the people before, I specifically mentioned this matter, and now the common people know that Lu Chensheng from Youxing Seoul helped control the flood.

Thinking of this, he was slightly startled.

"In any case, Yunmengjiang was indeed cured by Mr. Lu, so he must be somewhat capable."

The minister's words reassured the emperor a little, and it was right after thinking about it.

No matter what this Lu Chensheng is, there have been successful cases of water control before. It is indeed too early to start doubting now.

The emperor above heard this, and after thinking about it carefully, he felt right.

"Send someone to ask quickly, the people can't wait too long."

After thinking about it, he still felt that it would be better for someone to ask quickly, otherwise, there would be floods in this place.

The emperor at this moment doesn't know that some places in Dacang at this moment are far more serious than what was written in the memorandum.

The far wider embankment is already full of raging water, which is constantly flowing forward.

Some low-lying places have begun to accumulate water.

The experienced people, seeing such a scene, already knew that there might be floods this year.

As long as the water is more powerful, the crops in the field will definitely be washed away.

Thinking of this, countless people couldn't sleep at night, fearing that the crops in the fields would disappear when they woke up.

It's just that even if they don't sleep, the flood is not something they can stop.

"It's over, why did the floods come so fiercely this year?"

An old farmer looked at the river in front of him, and looked at the field. Because of the heavy rain overnight, the river hadn't risen yet, but the water in the field had already started to overflow, and then water continued to flow into the river, which fueled the river. water potential.

"If there is a flood, this year will be in vain!"

The other person said with a hint of distress on his face when he heard the words.

His past experience made him feel a little bit at a loss in the face of such a situation.

I heard that the emperor sent a very capable talent to come to the Great Cang Kingdom to control the floods or something.

When they first heard the news, they were extremely happy, thinking that this time the emperor had finally done something.

But who would have known that in this summer, after the river began to surge, there was still no trace of the river being treated.

This made them suddenly feel like they were playing tricks.

In the past, whenever they heard how much money was allocated to the Ministry of Industry for water control, they felt that it had some effect.

But gradually, they also knew that it was not very useful at all.

The money was given to the Ministry of Industry, but in fact, the Ministry of Industry is sending out progressively less and less money.

What can we do?

The only way to force the common people to do hard labor is to make a living difficult for the common people. The common people will be conscripted to do hard labor if they haven't finished their work in the fields.

It's finally here, the emperor has made some changes, but the flood hasn't changed at all, it's still going to come.

Chapter 458 Start Diverting

"Didn't you say before that there is Lu Chensheng from that star Seoul to help us control the flood? Why is there no effect at all?"

Another old farmer thought of this matter and asked directly.

There was a bit of strangeness in his tone, and he was also a little puzzled.

"I've heard that Xing Seoul City is so good. If it takes money and doesn't do anything, I'm afraid this person won't be much better. Could it be that the previous rumors are all false?"
