Li Qieyou did not dare to stay in Zhengzhou. After hearing that Xuzhou burst the dike yesterday, he was ready to set off immediately.

However, he was about to board the ship, but he stopped and turned to the governor of Zhengzhou.

"Mr. Hu, how much grain does Zhengzhou have now?"

"Back to the Marquis, Zhengzhou doesn\'t have much grain, but the Marquis doesn\'t have to worry about grain. There is a large amount of grain stored in the Changping warehouse in Luoyang for emergencies. The Marquis can order to transport grain from the Changping warehouse in Luoyang to Xuzhou."

The governor of Zhengzhou was also a human being. He immediately recognized the meaning of Li forgetful\'s words and quickly replied.

But he didn\'t lie. Datang set up regular closing positions in Luo, Xiang, you, Xu, Qi, he, Qin and Puzhou to store a large amount of corn.

These grain reserves are first to stabilize grain prices and avoid cheap grain hurting farmers, and second to prevent bad harvests in bad years.

For example, in the second year of the locust plague in Zhenguan, local governments relied on the regular closing of grain to relieve the victims.

The second is to deal with national events, such as military expeditions or major project construction.

Luoyang is not far from Zhengzhou, but more than 200 miles away. It can be reached in a day by four-wheel carriage.

Li forgot to worry and ordered people to summon the civil Ministry officials on board. After asking them, he confirmed this point and was a little relieved.

There is food that Luoyang often closes its warehouse. In addition, he ordered his enemies to start transporting food to Zhengzhou. I think food should not be a big problem.

In his mind, for such a major disaster, as long as there is enough food to ensure the survival of the victims, there will be no trouble.

Li forgot to worry and ordered the officials of the Ministry of the people to leave a few people and ordered them to set out immediately to Luoyang Changping warehouse, prepare to transfer grain to Zhengzhou, and then transport it to Xuzhou through Tongji canal.

He hurried aboard and led the fleet to Xuzhou.

Zhengzhou is more than 200 miles away from Xuzhou. It can be reached by boat in three or four hours.

When the fleet sailed into Xuzhou, the scene in front of them shocked everyone.

Their fleet originally traveled along the Tongji canal.

Tongji canal is an artificial canal excavated by Emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, who sent more than one million men and women to Henan counties.

Due to the dragon boat of emperor Yang Guang of the Sui Dynasty, the canal was dug deep and 40 steps wide, that is, about 60 meters, which can be regarded as very wide.

But when the fleet drove into Xuzhou, they could hardly tell where the river was and where the land was. Almost everything they could reach was a vast ocean

Although the Tongji canal has not burst, it has been flooded outside the river, and even overflowed the embankment of the Tongji canal and poured into the canal.

On both sides of the river bank, you can vaguely see some villages in the distance. At this time, only some ruins are left. The filthy water is full of bodies of cattle, sheep and pigs floating, and even the bodies of people drowned by the flood can be seen floating from time to time.

Once in the distance, many people took refuge on trees and roofs. When they saw the fleet, they shouted for help. It was very sad.

Li forgets worry and doesn\'t dare to neglect. He quickly orders the fleet to put down the boat and let the forbidden army go to save people.

Fortunately, Li forgot to worry about them. Because of their large number and more than 1000 imperial guards, they collected a large number of ships when they set out from Fenglingdu.

After learning about the flood in Xuzhou, the governor of Zhengzhou also arranged ships to accompany him, but there was a place to accommodate the rescued victims.

Li forgot to worry and sent orders to transport the rescued victims back to Zhengzhou for resettlement. He continued to lead the fleet to Shexian, governor of Xuzhou.

Because all the way, Li\'s fleet was constantly rescuing the victims on both sides of the Tongji canal. When the fleet arrived in changshe County, it was already in the evening.

From a distance, half of the city walls of changshe county have been soaked in the flood. Obviously, the state of Xuzhou is also surrounded by floods. I\'m afraid tens of thousands of people in the city are also in danger.

Li forget worry originally wanted to change the boat immediately and go to changshe County, but he was persuaded by everyone.

At this time, it is already dusk and the situation in the city is unknown. You should not rush into the city to avoid accidents.

Li forgot to worry about it and thought that there were no lighting facilities at night, and his fleet did not carry food for rescue. It was really inappropriate to enter changshe County rashly, so he didn\'t insist any more.

However, he ordered the forbidden army to send people and horses to changshe County by boat to inquire about the news. If possible, find the governor of Xuzhou and the officials of changshe county and bring them back. He is willing to inquire about the situation.

Standing in the bow of the boat, watching dozens of forbidden troops rowing their boats slowly to the county not far away, Li Qieyou couldn\'t help sighing.

In this era, human life is too fragile in the face of major disasters.

And he always felt that he seemed to have overlooked something, but he didn\'t think of what it was for the time being.

At this time, Su Changqing came to his side, stood side by side with him, looked at the flooded city wall of the county, and suddenly said, "forget your worries. There\'s something I think you should plan early."

"What?" Li forgot to worry and didn\'t understand what the beautiful boss said.

Su Changqing brushed away the messy hair blown by the wind in front of his forehead and said leisurely, "have you forgotten that there must be a big epidemic after the great disaster since ancient times?"

The words of the beauty\'s boss immediately sounded like thunder in Li\'s ear, which made his body shake.

Sure enough, he had always felt that something had been forgotten!

Epidemic!

Since ancient times in China, because of poor sanitary conditions, it has almost become a law that there must be a major epidemic after a major disaster.

Especially after the flood, the bodies of livestock and people were soaked in the flood. It is certain that the virus overflowed in the water at this time. If it is not treated, people and animals will not get sick if they drink these polluted water sources.

Moreover, due to poor medical conditions and lack of experience in preventing the epidemic, even those officials and doctors are equally vulnerable to disease and death once the epidemic breaks out.

Li forget worry thought that if Xuzhou broke out after the flood, the scene would be too terrible.

Thinking of the picture of the epidemic, a layer of white sweat suddenly appeared on his back.

At this time, I saw a boatman at the bow, tied the bucket with a rope, put it into the river, picked up a bucket of clean water, and was ready to pick it up and send it to the entrance.

Li Qieyou immediately rushed over and kicked the boatman who was ready to drink raw water. The water in his hand was also scattered everywhere.

The boatman was kicked in a daze, but he didn\'t understand what he had done wrong, which angered the noble man.

He didn\'t dare to argue, so he knelt down and apologized again and again.

Li forgets worry and ignores the boatman and directly recruits Niu Wu.

"Niu Wu, send the order. No one in the fleet is allowed to drink raw water. It must be boiled before drinking. Everyone should wash their hands with soap horn at least three times a day. If anyone violates it, I will punish him severely!"
