"This is not safe," Fu Xingzhong said. "You can build a number of transverse dams between the remote embankments and the thread embankments to turn the area into squares, just like the watertight compartments of sea ships. It is the thread

If the embankment breaks, the horizontal embankment can also buffer it and prevent the distant embankment from being destroyed by the turbulent force."

Wang Huai said: "In places where the terrain is dangerous or the dams are weak, dikes to divert water should be built to ensure nothing goes wrong."

Zhao Fengji said: "Next year, we will first dredge the south channel of the Ergu River as a diversion channel for the north flow to carry over the past few years. At the same time, we will dredge and widen the north channel of the Ergu River, build various dams, and relocate the prefecture and county offices along the way.

When the Erguhe North Road project is completed, the Yellow River will be diverted to this side to divert water and attack sand, while the South Road will be used to divert the flow during floods that only occur once in a century."

Fu Xingzhong exclaimed: "According to this method, I am afraid that half a million civilians will have to be mobilized and hundreds of millions of dollars will be spent. So many prefectures, counties and cities will have to be relocated..."

Zhao Fengji was extremely bachelor and said: "It's the same sentence. We just put forward feasible strategies. As for whether to do this, it all depends on the official decision. If there are too many officials who oppose it and the officials feel embarrassed, then we will still use the old method to control the river.

."

The method of confining water to attack sand is not a one-and-done solution.

Over the years, sediment will gradually accumulate and the river bed will slowly rise. However, the rate at which sediment is deposited and the river bed will rise will definitely be much slower than before.

Maybe it can last for decades.

If it is well maintained, it will last for hundreds of years.
