Chapter 393 Waterfall Mouth

The reserve service is indeed one of the components of the People's Liberation Army. This appearance is really different, and it is directly on the cannon.

Lin Yi did not neglect, "Okay, since time is tight and tasks are heavy, then let's not delay and set off immediately."

In the car, Reserve Company Commander Zhao turned his head and said to Lin Yi: "Company Commander Lin, I see that you have three military dogs, and I happen to have three rows. I mean, one row and one dog. It is easy to work if you spread them out like this. You follow our company headquarters, and I will bring a few elite members, and let's clean up the river."

Lin Yi has no objection to this arrangement. Although according to the regulations, the reserve force is the reserve force of the People's Liberation Army, but the reserve force mostly refers to the second category of reserve force, which is the militia.

Like the reserve force, this kind of force that belongs to the People's Liberation Army sequence, although its personnel composition is not much different from the militia force, but his company platoon leader is after all a serious active duty officer, and he is no different from himself. In this case, Then it is unreasonable to say that he is robbing others of his command.

Besides, he has been a reserve company commander for some time, and he is more familiar with the situation here, so it is naturally more appropriate for him to command.

And the most important point is that my position is relatively high. If I am dispatched with a certain squad, who will be in command?

If it is in their own hands, they may not necessarily listen to him. After all, he is just an outsider, who does not understand his character and talent, and cannot divide tasks.

As for letting the squad platoon leader be the commander, this seems to be no problem, but it is unreasonable for a squad platoon leader to command a company commander.

So Company Commander Zhao asked him to go out with him, which was the most appropriate. After all, Company Commander Zhao was a captain, and his military rank was still one level higher than his own, so he didn't have any psychological burden to command him.

The convoy moved quickly, and soon came to the edge of the town reservoir. At this time, firefighters and some militia troops wearing 07 camouflage could already be seen carrying sandbags. Seeing this, Company Commander Zhao let the other vehicles go first, and he put the vehicles away. Step aside and look at Lin Yi, "Company Commander Lin, let's go to the reservoir disaster relief commander to find out the situation, and then determine what we should do."

Lin Yi nodded, and the two quickly found the squadron leader of the fire squadron. The squadron leader obviously knew Company Commander Zhao. He probably met in the usual inspection training, so he was very enthusiastic, "Commander Zhao, you are finally here. Our manpower Not enough, if the rain continues at this rate, there may not be enough people in the previous regiment."

Company Commander Zhao saw that the large machinery hadn't come up yet, so he scratched his head, "Our company has other missions, so we can't support you now, you should report to the headquarters and let them send the machinery up. I'm here to ask you. If the rain falls, how long can the reservoir hold the load? If the reservoir is opened to release the flood, which river channel should we clean up to achieve the greatest flood discharge?"

flood discharge?

The squadron leader was stunned when he heard the word, and asked anxiously, "Have the people in the lower reaches of the reservoir been evacuated? The heavy rain just started, how can we rush to release the flood?"

Company Commander Zhao pointed to the convoy that he had already left, "My task is to evacuate the masses, and then use artillery fire to clear a spillway. We haven't had a flood here for decades, and the floodway may look like that, so I came here to ask you, how long can you give us?"

The squadron leader looked at the rapidly rising rain in the reservoir, and said anxiously: "If it rains like this, it won't be until tomorrow morning, and I won't be able to hold it. Have you seen the waterfall that our headlights shine on? ?Most of the water in the reservoir flows out from here. I didn’t expect that the waterfall, which has been planned as a key construction of the scenic spot, has now become the deadliest link.”

Hearing this, Lin Yi asked suddenly: "Then what if we blow up the mouth of the waterfall with artillery fire? Even if we can't block all of it, we can block [-]% to [-]% of the water flow, at least we can give more water. Let's fight for half a day."

Fried waterfall mouth?
This remark stunned the squadron leader and the reserve company commander. Almost all the tourism resources of this town come from this waterfall. If this waterfall is blown up, let alone whether the town leaders agree, the local people may not Agree.

Lin Yi saw that the two had lost their voices, and understood what they were worried about. As a unit from the masses, they would indeed consider things more comprehensively than themselves.

But Lin Yi's idea is also very simple. If he can buy more time on the side of the reservoir, then whether it is evacuating the masses or cleaning the spillway, he will have more time. Time is not enough for anyone. If you can buy a little more time, you can guarantee more safety.

"Squadron Commander, Company Commander Zhao, if you don't want to report, then I will report to the town maintenance headquarters first, and see how determined the town is."

Company Commander Zhao pressed Lin Yi, "Company Commander Lin, don't worry, the three of us, as the command layer on the reservoir, must agree on it first, and I'll ask first before talking."

Then he looked at the squadron leader, "Now give me an estimate of the time for two sets of plans. One is that according to the current situation, we still have a few hours before we have to open the floodgates; If it is blown up and blocked, how much time do we have?"

The squadron leader has been doing firefighting for so many years, and he is confident in estimating the water flow, and he gave the answer within 2 minutes, "If the current water situation is used, it will not exceed ten hours for you at most. If you can block the waterfall mouth, Even if it only blocks 24% to [-]% of the traffic, the safety time can be extended to [-] hours."

Hearing this, Company Commander Zhao took a deep breath, looked at the two of them, and as if he had made a decision, he picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Report to the Town Stability Maintenance Headquarters. I am the company commander of the third reserve company. I am now requesting an order from the Stability Maintenance Headquarters." , bombard the waterfall above the reservoir, if we block the waterfall, the safety time can be extended to 24 hours, if not blocked, the safety time will not exceed ten hours, please reply immediately.”

Soon a sentence came from the intercom, "The headquarters received it, please wait a moment!"

After the communication support staff said this, the Stability Maintenance Headquarters fell into a deathly silence. It was Secretary Sun who spoke first, "In the face of the safety of people's lives and property, we should let go of everything."

The mayor breathed heavily, "Secretary Sun, I understand what you mean, but the reservoir and waterfall scenic spot is an important part that directly drives the economic development of our town. Can we think about it, can we think of a way to get the best of both worlds?" , neither destroying the waterfall scenic area, but also ensuring that the reservoir can carry as much water as possible.

In addition, isn't the third company of the reserve team going to clean up the spillway? Can we send some forces to help them, get through the spillway as soon as possible, and then open the floodgates earlier? "
