Riverside Police.

Chapter 620 Victory in the first battle!

The rain stopped, and the flood peak roared.

There is also no obvious "peak" here, only that the water flow is very fast, the water level continues to soar, and the waves are constantly beating against the subdike that has just been built by thousands of soldiers and civilians.

Once the flood overflows, it will not only threaten the life and property safety of hundreds of thousands of people under the embankment, but also endanger the entire Jianghan Plain.

Because of this, the Jingjiang embankment is called the embankment of life!
Facing the roaring and rushing turbid river, no one is afraid, and there is no need to be afraid. What everyone thinks now is to defend the embankment at all costs.

The safety of the life embankment in Lingjiang River has been "contracted" to the towns along the line. Since most of the flood control and emergency supplies are raised by the towns and villages, some dike sections have high sub-dikes, and some dike sections cannot find so many sandbags. is relatively low.

The only thing that can be done now is to tear down the east wall to make up for the west wall, and urgently transport the sandbags that have been built higher to a lower place.

The levee wasn't wide enough, nor could it take much pressure, and two large dump trucks couldn't help.

All three loaders went up to the embankment to assist in transporting sandbags, but how much the three loaders could transport was mainly dependent on manpower.

Everyone was covered in mud and drenched inside and out to carry the sandbags.

The officers and soldiers of the Armed Police Squadron and the company where the "Little Binjiang Villagers" belonged were completely desperate. They were divided into several sections on the long embankment and transferred sandbags like a relay race.

Sixty to seventy catties of sandbags, they carried them and ran away.

From 11:30 noon to four o'clock in the afternoon, the most officers and soldiers ran back and forth more than [-] times!
Around five o'clock, the water level gradually dropped.

The second time the flood peak was resisted with the joint efforts of thousands of soldiers and civilians, but no one cheered and celebrated.Everyone was exhausted and slumped on the muddy embankment, without even the strength to speak.

Several nearby villages were responsible for the logistical support of the militia reserve forces in the county, and the meals were delivered.

The meal is very simple, rice is enough, there are only two dishes, one is fried shredded pork, and the other is pickled long pepper.There is no soup, and I drink boiled water when I am thirsty. The boiled water is brought by the masses with their own boiled water bottles.

The dinner of the Armed Police Squadron was a box lunch, which was said to be two meat and two vegetables, but there were not a few pieces of meat, and it was cold on the river embankment.

They came in a hurry yesterday, without life jackets, let alone labor protection supplies.

From the squadron leader, the instructor to the little soldier, one of them had blisters on their hands. If they are not treated in time, they are easy to get infected.

When Liang Xiaojun and Han Xiangmeng were helping them with their wounds, they were surprised to see an armed police soldier eat six lunch boxes in a row.

"Binjiang fellow" Xu Xiaoming's troops have the simplest food, each person only has a bottle of mineral water, a bag of pickled mustard and a few steamed buns!

Dongdong couldn't believe his eyes, returned to the tent in the camp area, looked at the rich food in the stainless steel lunch box, and couldn't help asking: "Uncle Xiaoyu, brother Xiaoming is the real People's Liberation Army, they are not as good as the armed police ?”

"The soldier from Chonggang District?"

"Well, they only have steamed buns and mustard at night."

What Xiaoyu is thinking about now is how to get the phone back. He just repelled the flood peak once, and he always felt that there was something wrong without making a few calls.

Dong Maosheng, a transferred military cadre from the customs, hesitated for a moment, and said with a wry smile: "The army, the navy, and the air force are big hooligans. There is a certain reason for this."

"Uncle Dong, the air force is playing hooligans?"

"I'm not really playing hooligans, I'm talking about their treatment and conditions in all aspects."

"The air force has the best treatment, but the army has the worst conditions?"

"In this sense, the treatment conditions are reflected in all aspects. The food standard is directly related to grassroots soldiers. The food standard of the army is the lowest. The food is not as good as the navy, nor is it as good as the air force. And with such a small food fee, there will be... Will..."

"Uncle Dong, what else?"

This kid has grown up, there are some things you can talk to him about.

Dong Maosheng weighed it up, and explained helplessly: "The grassroots company has no office funds, let alone any income. So the superiors came to check, and the company wanted to buy something or do something else. Most of the funds needed come from the food expenses of the soldiers."

"Ah! Isn't this drinking the blood of soldiers?" Dongdong asked in surprise.

Dong Maosheng didn't say yes or no, took a bite of the food, and continued: "Many troops have military service agencies, which are equivalent to department stores and grain and oil stores in the army. Military service agencies are mainly used to accommodate family members accompanying the army. That is to say, the military service agency wants to make money, and the rice and vegetables it sells are more expensive than outside.

There are also some company chief officers who are not self-disciplined enough, plus some unconscious chiefs. In some units, even the squad leader of the cooking squad and even the cooks have the idea of ​​paying for food, and they want to take advantage of the soldiers.Think about it, with such a small amount of food expenses in total, how much can be eaten by the soldiers in the end? "

Dongdong couldn't believe her ears, and murmured, "It's too corrupt!"

Chen Youren, a transferred cadre from the Changhang Branch Bureau, was not surprised by this, and suddenly said: "So some units even advocate savings, and even use the savings in food expenses as one of the criteria for evaluating whether the company is well built. Tell me, You can save on everything, but can you save on food expenses?"

Brother Haoran has also been a company commander for several years.

Has brother Haoran done anything that harmed the interests of soldiers?

The more Xiao Yu thought about it, the more his heart beat, so he changed the subject altogether: "Dong Ke, Lao Chen, what do you mean by Staff Officer Dai? Does he have the right to confiscate our mobile phones and BP machines?"

"He is the military staff officer sent by the 132 regiment, and that's what the military staff officer is in charge of. Besides, he didn't confiscate it, he just collected it and handed it over to Secretary Qiu for safekeeping."

"He is the military staff officer of the 132 regiment, not the military staff officer of our battalion!"

"But we are now managed by the 132 regiment."

"Must listen to him?"

"You have to listen, you can't do it if you don't listen."

"He's so lenient!"

"Xiaoyu, you have never been a soldier. It is normal if you don't understand or get used to it. If you have been a soldier, you know how powerful the military staff of the regiment's military affairs department and the military affairs of the division's military affairs department are. We are under the management of others now, and we can It is said that people are under the eaves, so let’s just listen to them honestly.”

Xiaoyu asked unconvinced: "What if I don't listen?"

Dong Maosheng said with a smile: "If you dare not listen, it is a violation of military orders. They have the right to confine you, like detention for a few days."

Chen Youren laughed even more and said, "Xiaoyu, I'm not trying to scare you. The confinement of the army is more ruthless than your police's detaining criminals. It is said that ten people are locked up in a detention center or detention center. At least there are companions who can talk to each other." The confinement in the army is to put you in a small dark room, where you can't see your fingers, eat, drink, sleep, and have no one to talk to."

Xiaoyu didn't want to be put in confinement, and he didn't want to just admit cowardly, muttering: "If he has the ability, don't change jobs. If he changes jobs to Binjiang, let's see how I deal with him!"

……

The raging river has been restrained, and the water level of the Lingjiang section has stopped at 42.22 meters.

The water level is still high, the dike is still submerged in water, and dangerous situations such as collapse, cracking, piping, and water seepage may still occur at any time. In fact, many dangerous situations have occurred in other dike sections.

Lingjiang County not only has the 48-kilometer-long Jingjiang Levee, but also the 14-kilometer-long Yaoxing Mindi.

The current Lingjiang River is flooded from the outside and from the inside, especially the Yaoxing Mindi, which can be said to be full of dangers. The torrential floods seriously threaten the safety of the Yangtze River embankment.

Dangerous situations have occurred one after another in dangerous construction and dangerous sections such as the Yangtze River Power Gate, Wanxing Village Gate, Wenxin Village Yantang, and Daxingchang Ferry. Vice Mayor Xu and Secretary Zheng went to other places to direct the rescue two hours ago. On the side of the dike, deputy county magistrate Wang is in charge.

The shed on the embankment was demolished due to obstacles when facing the flood peak, and deputy mayor Shen invited deputy county magistrate Wang to come to 001 to command.

Their means of communication basically rely on their feet.

At noon today, a patrol team found a water seepage at the foot of the embankment, and sent people to rush nearly two kilometers to the flood control contact point in the village to report. The contact point had a landline phone and called Deputy County Magistrate Wang.

At the request of Deputy County Mayor Wang, the Linghai Reserve Battalion arranged twelve emergency rescue team members and an excavator to rush over with a deputy township head to assist in the rescue.

In short, considering that they don't have high-frequency radio stations, so many mobile phones, and the most advanced Motorola walkie-talkie unlike the Linghai Reserve Battalion, Deputy Mayor Shen ordered 001 to set sail and send Deputy County Chief Wang to check the embankments of the embankments. Condition.

Han Yu also followed, in order to quickly formulate a rescue plan after discovering a dangerous situation, and timely dispatch rescue equipment and personnel to support.

Wherever they pass, party members and cadres take the lead. Bureau chiefs and township chiefs can be said to be very important officials in the countryside, but now they take the lead and are covered in mud and sweat like militiamen and ordinary people.

Several bureau chiefs and town leaders are over 50 years old, and they are still fighting with young men.

When we returned to the embankment section of the gate, it was already dark.

As soon as 001 anchored, Yang Jianbo and Zhao Jiang brought up the food.

Han Yu was about to greet Deputy Mayor Shen and Deputy County Mayor Wang for dinner when Mr. Xi called suddenly.

"Senior, what instruction?"

"Two things, one is a public matter and the other is a private matter."

"Let's talk business first."

"You did a great job in the rescue mission at the Laomiao gate. The leaders of Jingzhou Fangzhi entrusted me to express my gratitude to you."

"We are here to rescue the emergency. This is what we should do." Compared with the soldiers and civilians in Lingjiang who are struggling to fight the flood, Han Yu feels that the Linghai Reserve Battalion does not do much.If you want to defend the embankments and embankments, you mainly rely on the soldiers and civilians of the Lingjiang River.

Mr. Xi didn't know what he was thinking, and continued: "You guys maneuvered thousands of miles and went into battle as soon as you got out of the car. You have been working for seventeen hours in a row and have successfully completed the rescue mission. The leader of Jingzhou Fangzhi asked me to ask, and I will give you Is ten hours rest enough?"

"Five hours is enough. Our people are divided into two shifts. The reason why we need to give us five hours is mainly because there are several dangerous situations on the Lingjiang River. There are two excavators and two loaders outside. To assist in the rescue, it will take about five hours for them to complete their mission and return to the embankment at the gate.”

"Okay, I will give you a new task in five hours."

"Xi Gong, can you arrange it first, so that we can arrange for technicians to go to the scene first."

"There are dangers everywhere, and the dangers will continue to change. Some may have been rescued in five hours, and some will become more serious in five hours. I don't know when Jingzhou Defense will I will ask you where to go for support."

"Okay, we'll wait for the order."

"Mayor Xu called two hours ago to report the situation of your battalion to Deputy Zhou Z, who is in charge of flood control in Jingzhou. The study decided to use you as the emergency rescue force directly commanded by the city defense department."

"That's what I said at the beginning."

"In the beginning, it was recommended by our Yangtze River Defense Command. You won the first battle, and you were able to complete the rescue mission that usually took half a month in just [-] hours. You have proved your combat effectiveness with practical actions. This time people really value it!"

When you come here, you are there for rescue, whether you are here or there, it doesn't matter whether the superiors pay attention to it or not.

Han Yu didn't really care about those things, or he was reluctant to leave Lingjiang, where he had been fighting for more than ten hours, but asked curiously, "Mr. Xi, did you just say the Yangtze River Defense Command?"

"It's always been the Yangtze River Defense Command. You didn't know these things before. You thought they were called Fang Zhi like the provincial flood control and drought relief headquarters. Think about it carefully. Didn't mention it to you."

"The level of the Yangtze River Defense Command is higher than that of the Provincial Defense Command?"

"I can't talk about who is higher and who is lower. It mainly represents the Ministry of Water Resources. In your terms, it is the national team."

"understood."

Worker Xi also didn't want to spend precious time and energy explaining the administrative level of the unit, and continued: "The Three Gorges Corporation of the Yangtze River has supported a batch of emergency supplies, mainly stone materials, which should be transported to Jingzhou at noon tomorrow.

Deputy Zhou Z and the leaders of Jingzhou City agreed that good steel should be used wisely, and decided to use the stone supported by the Three Gorges Corporation and some of the emergency supplies just raised by the city today to protect you. "

You can't fight without ammunition, and it's useless to have the best equipment without ammunition!

Han Yu was interested in this, and couldn't help laughing: "Great, thanks to the superior for trusting, we promise to use those emergency supplies where they are most needed."

"You will be under the command of the city's defense command. Our Yangtze River Defense Command has agreed. You can only use those materials where they are most needed."

Xi Gong paused, and added: "In addition, the leader of the Yangtze River Defense Command decided to squeeze out 50 yuan from the flood control and disaster relief funds just allocated by the Ministry for the logistical support of your battalion. The 50 Wan will transfer to the account of the Jingzhou Harbor Supervision Bureau by noon tomorrow at the latest, and hand it over to the CSC logistics support team, that is, Comrade Huang Yuanchang, deputy director of the Policy and Regulations Division of the CSC Bureau."

It doesn't matter who pays, anyway, there must be a unit to pay.

Han Yu said that he understood, and then asked, "What about private matters?"

"Your father-in-law came here with Huang Yuanchang and Gu Pengfei, Director of the Floating Crane Wharf of Binjiang Port Authority. They flew from the East China Sea to Hanwu, and then came by car from Hanwu."

"Didn't he say to come by boat?"

"We just met. He originally planned to come by boat, but after thinking about it, he realized that he had to be prepared for weather protection, so he came here in advance to check the historical weather data of Jingzhou and surrounding areas."

"Where is he now?"

"I went to the Jingzhou Meteorological Bureau. The Jingzhou Meteorological Bureau sent a car to pick it up. Xianyu, you and your wife usually don't take your father-in-law seriously. In fact, your father-in-law is very good and is very famous in the meteorological system. The director of the Jingzhou Meteorological Bureau As soon as Gong saw him, he respectfully addressed him as Teacher Han, and it is said that he also has several friends in the Beihu Provincial Meteorological Bureau."

The meteorological system may seem large, but it is actually small.

The particularity of work and the closed nature of vertical management determine that their meteorologists can only play with friends in the meteorological circle.

My father-in-law has been the deputy chief engineer and chief forecaster of the Binjiang Meteorological Bureau for so many years. He has to participate in telephone meteorological consultations organized by provincial meteorological departments and even the National Meteorological Administration several times a week, and attends seminars on meteorological systems every year. It's normal to know a few meteorologists in Beihu.

Han Yu realized that the old father-in-law in Binjiang enjoyed more food than himself, so he couldn't help but asked with a smile: "So if he doesn't come to join the army in the next few days, we don't need to take care of him?"

"No, the Jingzhou Meteorological Bureau is as busy as the Shashi Hydrological Station. Several meteorological engineers eat, drink, and sleep in the unit. With the support of a senior meteorological expert like your father-in-law, they are too late to be happy. It will definitely be arranged very well, completely. You don't need to worry."

"Where's the yellow place?"

"Director Huang joined the Municipal Defense Command on behalf of the Long-term Navigation Bureau, and is currently in a meeting with the Municipal Defense Command. Director Gu is with me. When the supervision boat of the Jingzhou Harbor Supervision Bureau sends the leader back for inspection, he will use the supervision boat to send him there to talk to him. You meet."
