I'm a scumbag

After Gu Pansheng entered the barracks, he stayed obediently aside, secretly looking at the topographic map of Nuoda spread out on the table.

At this time, I saw Ye Chengxuan pointing to the thin tributaries drawn with a brush and saying, "Wucheng was originally called the Water City. Due to years of rainfall, the terrain is uneven. Many rivers were formed later, including This unfathomable stagnant river."

After Ye Chengxuan finished speaking, he pointed to the location of the Dead Water River.

Ye Yunjin was also surprised when she saw the location of the dead water river, and said, "This river is actually in the middle of the city."

Ye Chengxuan nodded and said, "Before, the imperial court allocated funds, and some officials wanted to build a stable dam along the backwater river, but then somehow, this matter was shelved, and it has been down for several days. The torrential rain caused the river to burst its embankment and flood, destroying hundreds of houses in one fell swoop, and all the busiest streets and streets were wiped out."

Ye Yunjin looked at the terrain and said, "This terrain is really strange. It is low on the left and high on the right. The river flows towards the gate of the city, but when it reaches the gate, it stops flowing. As a result, the river is blocked at the gate of the city."

Vice-General Ji nodded beside him, and said, "This is also the most distressing point for our general. I joked a few days ago that it would be great if I could scoop out the water in a bowl as big as a city, and save it. You can’t get out, you can’t get in.”

Gu Pansheng listened beside him and couldn't help lowering his head and thinking.

He seemed to have seen this method of dealing with natural disasters and man-made disasters in Zangshuge. He didn't quite remember which book it was, so he squatted down and beat his head in pain.

Ye Yunjin caught a glimpse of his painful appearance, stepped forward two steps, and asked him, "What's the matter, are you feeling uncomfortable?"

Gu Pansheng shook his head and said, "I want to go out and get some air."

Ye Yunjin glanced back at Ye Chengxuan, Ye Chengxuan nodded at him, he turned around and said to Gu Pansheng, "I'll accompany you."

Gu Pansheng: ...I don't know how to run.

Ye Yunjin: Even if you don't run away, I'm afraid that you will tell the secret of Ye Fu.

Gu Pansheng: ...

After Ye Yunjin and the others walked out of the tent, Deputy General Ji grabbed Ye Chengxuan and said softly, "Look at them, do they look like me? I am like your son, and you are like that white and tender boy."

Ye Chengxuan rolled his eyes and said, "I see that my son is the one above, and that boy is being suppressed. You seem to say the opposite."

Deputy General Ji gave Ye Chengxuan a wolf kiss on the face, and whispered in his ear, "General Ye, you are not good! You will see tonight."

After hearing what Lieutenant General Ji said, Ye Chengxuan, who had a stern, tall and mighty face, blushed with embarrassment.

These two old men who are over forty years old...

********

On the hill here, Gu Pansheng squatted on the top of the hill, carefully looking at the terrain below the hill, while watching, he kept thinking about what Lieutenant General Ji said just now.

It would be nice if there was a bowl, a bowl that can pour out all the water...

pour out……

Gu Pansheng muttered aloud, Ye Yunjin squatted aside and said, "What are you doing? Is it a practice? Is it witchcraft?"

Gu Pansheng shouted to Ye Yunjin impatiently, "Go away! I'm thinking about something."

"Thinking about things is like chanting a spell. You pour it out and back it up. Do you think you are a ditch?"

Ditch?

It is recorded in ancient books that the cure for floods lies in dredging, not blocking.

If a pipeline can be passed under the doorway of the city gate, a ditch can be dug here. External drainage...

Gu Pansheng patted his forehead and said, "I thought of it, we can build a dark ditch at the gate of the city to drain the water out, as long as the water at the gate is cleared, won't it be easier to follow up?"

Ye Yunjin thought for a while, and asked, "You mean to build an underground culvert? Then lead it out with a copper pipe? The method is good, but it's a waste of time."

Gu Pansheng thought for a while, and it seemed that it was a waste of time, "The water at the gate of the city can hardly be drained, but it is actually caused by the terrain. If we can create a terrain difference at the gate, the water can flow down naturally, as long as there are more people. I dig in shifts day and night, especially looking for someone who knows how to measure accurate numbers and can calculate how much water can fall naturally, which saves time.”

Ye Yunjin listened carefully to Gu Pansheng's words, with uncontrollable joy flashing in his eyes, he said excitedly, "Fortunately, we have been stuck on how to let the water in the city flow out, but we have neglected that if the water at the gate of the city cannot flow out, it is useless." , Gu Pansheng, how did you think of it?"

Gu Pansheng stared at Ye Yunjin's foolish appearance, not knowing what expression to put on.

"I read this kind of book in Zangshuge before." Gu Pansheng almost blurted out, and regretted it after finishing speaking.

"Cangshu Pavilion? Where is it?" Ye Yunjin was quite surprised.

Gu Pansheng wanted to slap his mouth, "I have never been to Zangshu Pavilion, but it is said that someone brought that book out of Zangshu Pavilion, so I saw it by chance."

Ye Yunjin nodded, and didn't pick out the flaws in his words, but said, "I didn't expect that you are an elegant person who likes to read books, which is very similar to me."

Gu Pansheng curled his lips and thought to himself, I am more than elegant, I am simply the best in the world in terms of literary and martial arts.It's just that this weapon is a bit weak now, it can only rank second...
