"What? A landslide lake?!"
Upon hearing this news, General Leng got up abruptly, his nerves taut. This elder, the great steward of the nation, had been averaging no more than three hours of sleep a day since the earthquake occurred. Regardless of whether it was in the wee hours of the morning, he was still up, receiving reports from officials everywhere and coordinating support from across the country.
His face, which showed considerable fatigue, now filled with shock. After a pause, General Leng quickly said, "Commander Shen, do you have a military map of the area around Yizhou?"
At this time, a civilian map was far less accurate than a military one. On a military map, the direction of mountains and peaks, the course of rivers and their elevation drops, and all the surrounding details were meticulously outlined, a feat that civilian maps could not achieve.
So, upon hearing about the landslide lake, the first thing General Leng thought of was to check the military map.
