Riverside Police.

At 2:21, the stone finally arrived.

These precious stones and flakes were all donated by the Three Gorges Corporation of the Yangtze River, and they should have been transported to Jingzhou at noon yesterday.

As a result, a dangerous situation occurred upstream, and the local leaders directing the rescue saw a fleet full of stones coming up the river, and immediately arranged for militiamen to find ships to intercept and requisition.

The fleet did not install a high-frequency radio station, and the person in charge of the fleet did not have a mobile phone, so he could not report to Jingzhou Fangzhi.

The local leaders only care about emergency rescue, and they don't care who these stones are. Even if the king of heaven comes, he should requisition or requisition, at worst, give money!
Jingzhou Fangzhi arranged for a special person to search all the way upstream, but only half of it was left when they found it, and they didn't plan to let it go.

Deputy Mayor Liu called the county leader himself, and the county leader spoke loudly on the phone.Said that they needed the stones very much, and wanted to remove the stones first, he would be dismissed first, and then see if the more than 100 million people in the county would agree.

Now there is a shortage of emergency supplies everywhere, especially rocks and flakes.

Deputy Mayor Liu could understand the mood of the county leader, and worked hard until the danger over there was basically under control, and the county leader who was willing to go all out agreed to let him go...

At 2:28, the urgently needed woven bags were also delivered to the other side of the river.

The more than 5000 woven bags just delivered came from several districts and counties across the river.

Gu Pengfei was immediately overwhelmed. While organizing personnel to throw stones to fill the deep groove at the bottom of the river, he also organized ships to transport the woven bags to the opposite bank.

With "ammunition", Han Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief.

He ran to the embankment again, held up the walkie-talkie and shouted: "Director Gu, throw it slowly, don't throw it so fast!"

"receive."

"Geju Geju, county magistrate Huang, please organize the masses to carry woven bags!"

"okay, got it."

"Jiao Yang, can you hear me?"

"Yes, Secretary Han, please tell me!"

"You will be responsible for inspecting the sandbags from now on. Many of the sandbags brought up just now are not tied tightly. What's the use if they are not tied tightly? Unqualified ones must not be transported to the embankment!"

"Understood, I'll go and watch."

The soil filled with sandbags is no longer dug by excavators, it is all dug by manpower, and it is all carried by the militiamen who rescued the emergency and the nearby people carrying bags one by one.

The new embankment directed by Hao Qiusheng and Zou Xiangyu has been repaired to 15 meters, but it cannot be compacted by three loaders and a bulldozer, and the weak new embankment cannot stop the flood.

Because the higher the building, the narrower the width of the embankment crest, large dump trucks can no longer go up.

Now the two earthwork construction teams adjusted the rescue plan again, instead of repairing to high places, they changed to widen the new embankment, and began to repair from bottom to top on the inside of the new embankment.

The "Wall-Building Team" of the 132nd Regiment moved very quickly, and there was a steady stream of sandbags. They had already built the sandbag wall to a height of more than eight meters, and one sandbag was pressed against the other, making it very tight.

Just as Han Yu was thinking that in two hours, the sandbag wall would be built to the top of the new embankment, and the new embankment would have a preliminary water-retaining effect, when Gong Sun's urgent call suddenly came from the intercom.

"Secretary Han, Secretary Han!"

"Sun Gong, what's the situation?"

"The dike can't stand it anymore! The previous cracks are intensifying at a speed visible to the naked eye. The cracks are getting bigger and bigger, and hundreds of cracks have appeared!"

God is not beautiful, and does not give time...

Han Yu didn't bother to look, and immediately shouted: "Notify 001, call the police!"

"Yes!"

"Company Commander Wu! Company Commander Wu! The embankment in front of us is about to burst, and your people will come up immediately!"

"Yes!"

Han Yu ran towards the new embankment, holding up the walkie-talkie and roaring: "County Huang, Magistrate Huang, Ge Bureau Ge Bureau, the dangerous embankment is about to burst, give the embankment an early warning!"

County Mayor Huang subconsciously turned his head to look at the dike, and Lao Ge quickly reminded: "County Huang, don't look at it, and call the headquarters immediately."

"Ah... oh..."

"Hurry up, hurry up!"

Lao Ge patted County Magistrate Huang on the shoulder, and then raised the walkie-talkie: "Battle Commander Li, and Ge Weidong, the expert team of the Linghai Reserve Battalion, the dike is about to collapse! The dike is about to collapse! Please notify each company and each Platoons and shifts, notify the local cadres, and immediately go to a high place to hide!"

Li Shousong, who was conducting a blanket investigation in a village, heard the call and hurriedly said, "Got it, I'll notify you right away!"

"Hurry up!"

"Yes!"

At this time, the tweeter on 001 sounded a piercing siren.

Hao Qiusheng and Zou Xiangyu did not dare to allow the brothers to continue construction, and immediately ordered the personnel and equipment under the embankment to evacuate to a higher place.

Yang Jianbo, Qiu Xuequan, Zhao Jiang and others were also aware of the seriousness of the problem, and immediately organized the officers, soldiers and the masses who were filling sandbags to evacuate to the embankment according to Han Yu's previous explanation.

"Everyone is there, listen to my command!"

Han Yu ran up the new embankment in one breath, looked down at the evacuating machinery and personnel, and shouted hoarsely with a portable speaker: "Everyone, don't panic and don't crowd, people on the west side run westward, there is a rope on the embankment on the west side, follow the rope Climb up. People on the east side go east, the embankment on the east side not only has ropes but also roads!

Attention all security personnel, attention all security personnel, please organize your personnel to evacuate in an orderly manner!Don't all crowd towards the construction access road, you must ensure that the construction machinery is evacuated in time!That's right, that's it, we have at least 5 minutes..."

When Deputy Mayor Shen heard the siren, he didn't bother to call the merchants anymore, and ran along the dry embankment.

Han Yu arranged for the evacuation of the personnel and equipment in the new embankment, turned around and raised the loudspeaker: "Company Commander Wu, report the situation, have all your people come up?"

Company Commander Wu was stunned for a moment, then hurriedly turned around and asked, "Every platoon reported the situation, did everyone come up?"

"All seven rows come up."

"The eighth row is coming up!"

"Report to the company commander, there are still two people in our platoon."

"hurry up."

"Yes!"

Han Yu looked around and saw two soldiers climbing up with the help of his comrades on the embankment, then turned around and shouted: "Yan Gong, Yan Gong, you are in charge of your people, hurry up and count the number of people, and report immediately after counting. "

"Okay, right away." Yan Gong put down the walkie-talkie and hurried to find the militiamen who assisted him in the morning to rescue him from the dangerous situation.

"Geju Geju, I'm Han Yu, please help County Magistrate Huang count the number of people participating in the emergency rescue, and make sure no one is left behind!"

"Ok."

"Wait, I saw a group of children playing on the embankment just now, so hurry up and organize the crowd to find the children!"

"I have a child, okay, okay, I'll go right away."

"Director Gu, Director Gu, I am Han Yu, the dike is about to burst, and the current will change greatly. Please pay attention to the safety of the boat."

"Understood, received!"

"Staff Dai Dai, please answer if you receive it."

"Received, Secretary Han, please tell me."

"Immediately organize a picket team to guard the junction of the dangerous dike, the new dike and the east and west sides of the dry dike, and it is strictly forbidden for anyone to run up the dike to watch the excitement."

"Yes!"

A series of orders were issued, and the emergency scene was not as chaotic as when the siren sounded. The officers, soldiers, masses and construction machinery under the embankment were all evacuated in an orderly manner.

The next thing to do was to protect the new embankment, but Han Yu didn't dare to give orders now, because it would easily cause confusion, so he simply put down the loudspeaker and walkie-talkie, and looked at the dangerous embankment directly ahead.

It may be that the distance is a bit far, but nothing unusual can be seen.

Until Deputy Mayor Shen ran to him out of breath, he suddenly found a muffled bang from the dangerous embankment, and a section of embankment about five meters long just fell down.

Immediately afterwards, the turbid river water rushed in from the breach, and rushed to the front in the blink of an eye!

The water level in the semi-circular large pond used to be more than four meters high. There is a complete difference between having water in the pond and having no water in it.

The water level is rising rapidly at a speed visible to the naked eye, and the breach, which was only about five meters before, is also expanding at a speed visible to the naked eye. The dikes on both sides of the breach continue to collapse as the flood surges in.

XCMG also came, staring at the ever-expanding breach, murmured: "Nine meters, ten meters, 11 meters, 13 meters, 15 meters, 16 meters, 18 meters..."

Han Yu looked terrified, and said to himself, "Stay steady, it won't collapse again."

The total length of the new embankment is 60 meters, but this 60 meters is only the arc length of the large pond.

In other words, the new dike only surrounds the main dike by more than [-] meters.

If it collapses beyond the protection of the new embankment, all previous efforts will be for naught.

Han Yu looked at the breach that continued to extend to both sides, regretting it, and was complaining why he didn't build an extra 60 meters on both sides of the dangerous embankment. Xu Gong shouted happily: "20 meters, the collapse is not as fast as before. Yes. Secretary Han, Mayor Shen, you see, the water is full, it has stopped, and it will no longer collapse!"

Deputy Mayor Shen was also terrified, and asked nervously, "Salted fish, what should we do now?"

Han Yu didn't answer and didn't bother to answer his question. He turned around to look at the evacuation situation, and then raised the walkie-talkie: "Attention all groups, attention each group, after going up the dike, follow the plan formulated an hour ago for emergency rescue in groups! "

"One group received."

"Second group received!"

"Three groups understand!"

……

One group was responsible for piling on the water, and the second group was responsible for throwing rocks and sandbags to protect the slope, so as to ensure that the remaining ten meters of dry embankment would not collapse.

The third group is responsible for using geotextiles to protect the upper half of the new embankment that has not had time to build sandbag walls. The geotextiles must be dragged into the water to cover and fix them, and then sandbags are thrown on top to hold them down.

Just like when protecting the dangerous gate of the old temple, this job can only be done by party members and commandos.

In short, although the dry embankment in front was breached, the Linghai Reserve Battalion was not in chaos.

The work of rushing to protect the new embankment is proceeding in an orderly manner as personnel and equipment have been withdrawn to a safe area.

At 2:56, No. 1 excavator and No. 1 loader drove onto the steam ferry, and then the steam ferry slowly sailed towards the breach. To ensure that the steam ferry would not hit the dry embankment, two tugboats followed behind to catch it.

A 400-ton cargo ship followed with more than [-] remaining piles.

Han Yu's little heart was pounding nervously, and he stood on the embankment and held up the walkie-talkie and kept urging: "Director Gu, the two small sections of embankment stretching out in the water are like paper. You must hold on tight!" , come up slowly, don’t drive so fast, slow down, slow down again! Yes, yes, that’s it.”

"It's time to break down, Master Zhou, be gentle and gentle when driving piles!"

"Yes, yes, that's it, continue."

"Director Gu, can you be gentle when throwing stones? It really can't stand being smashed, if it collapses, we're done."

The personnel working on the ship were annoyed, but they could understand his mood at this moment.

Gu Pengfei raised the walkie-talkie and asked dumbfoundedly: "Secretary Han, the biggest stone is tons, how can you make me gentle?"

"Then throw the smaller ones first."

"Okay, throw away the small one first."

Han Yu also realized that he could no longer nag others, holding up the walkie-talkie and turning around to ask, "Mr. Hao, how are you doing?"

Hao Qiusheng replied: "The geotextile is under pressure, I am going to let the No. 2 excavator and dump truck go down to continue to reinforce the new embankment."

"Don't worry, wait for Xu Gong, Sun Gong and Yao Gong to confirm whether the new embankment can withstand it before going down."

"It will definitely withstand it, and I have confidence in the quality of my project."

"It's useless for you to have confidence."

"You can't let the excavators and loaders be idle."

"Wait a little longer, be careful and be careful now. Just let the comrades rest for a while. Many people haven't even eaten breakfast. Those who should eat should hurry up to eat, and those who should go to the bathroom should hurry up to go to the bathroom."

……

The horns of the villages in the evacuation area blared loudly.

Li Shousong immediately led his subordinates and the local cadres who led the investigation team to a higher embankment, counted the number of people, and looked in the direction of the flood.

As a result, I waited and waited, but I didn't see the flood.

The news of the Yangliu Village embankment breach spread quickly throughout the county and spread in all directions.

People in the county rushed to the nearest market with vegetable baskets, rice bags, and oil pots to stockpile grain and other food.

As a result, there were rare hot scenes in front of grain stores, shops, vegetable stalls and meat cases. Prices soared all the way up. Water spinach and Chinese cabbage, which used to cost a few cents a catty, soared to more than two yuan per catty, and the price of meat also nearly doubled. .

In stark contrast, the price of live pigs plummeted.

A live pig weighing more than 300 catties can be bought for 300 yuan.

Villagers near the county seat desperately transported their pigs, sheep, chickens, and ducks to the city, causing the farmers' market to be full and creating a sharp contrast between live pigs and pork.They have no time to kill pigs, and the safety of life and other property has the upper hand at this time.

Reporter Wang saw a villager transport four 200-jin pigs to the city and sell them for a total of 1000 yuan. He couldn't help but ask, "Comrade, how much did you pay for the piglets?"

"Two hundred and thirty one."

"Isn't this a loss?"

"The loss is big, and the loss is dead."

The villagers took the cigarettes from Reporter Wang and said with a sad face: "Pigs are more expensive than pork. When I bought them, they were big pigs, which were more expensive than small pigs. I worked hard for more than three months and ate them. More than 1000 catties of grain, in the end, the cost of catching piglets was not even returned, and dozens of dollars were lost.”

Reporter Wang felt sad, so he helped him light a cigarette, and asked, "Can you think of a way to raise it for a few more days and sell it?"

"What can I do!"

The village head sighed, and said helplessly: "Thousands of catties of grain, furniture and TV sets in the family have to be transported to the safe area, and a cow and two children have to be looked after. I can't take care of these, sell them cheaply, and sell a few. Money is better than drowning."

All kinds of news are flying in the city now.

Some people said that there was a breach in Yangliu Village, others said it wasn't a breach, but that the PLA was ordered to blow it up, and the flood water was released to divert the flood to the other side, which made everyone panic.

Reporter Wang was anxious and worried about the safety of Xianyu and the others. He walked to an alley, took out his mobile phone and called Han Yu again.

It’s okay if you don’t make a call, but if you make a call, you will be more anxious and worried, because no matter how you call, you will not be able to get through, and you will always be prompted that the line is busy.

Han Yu was answering Xi Gong's call.

It is not so much that Xi Gong is asking about the situation, it is better to say that the vice president L who is condolences to the masses is asking.

"Xi Gong, what do you want me to say? The cofferdam is newly built, and it was built in such a hurry. The nearly ten thousand square meters of soil piled up have not been compacted layer by layer. I really don't know how long the cofferdam can last. .”

"Are you reinforcing the cofferdam?"

"Ah."

"The chief wants to know when it will be reinforced."

"Mr. Xi, now we not only need to strengthen the cofferdam, but also protect the two small sections of dry dike that have not collapsed. Otherwise, no matter how strong the cofferdam is reinforced, it will be useless."

"I know that the two small sections of dry embankment that haven't collapsed are more important than anything else, but now the chief is asking!"

Han Yu was busy directing the emergency rescue, and really didn't care about any chiefs, so he asked impatiently, "What are you asking?"

Mr. Xi could imagine how busy Xianyu was at the moment, so he bit the bullet and said, "The chief wants to know when the evacuated people will be able to return to their homes."

10,000+ people have left their homes, and agricultural production, industrial production, and business operations have all been greatly affected.

If you can return home earlier, you can recover a little more damage.And if so many people gather in the safe zone, it will also affect social stability.

Han Yu knew very well what his superiors were thinking, weighed it up and said, "In another 24 hours, Mr. Xi, I can barely hold on now. It's not 50.00% safe, and the safety factor is even less than 10,000%. Since the superior asked me to do this scene Commander in chief of emergency rescue, I will be responsible for the safety of [-]+ people!"

"Okay, I'll just report to the chief."

Mr. Xi still felt uneasy after thinking about it, and he said: "Xianyu, you must be more cautious at this time, not only to protect the two small sections of dry dikes that have not collapsed, but also to pay attention to the junction of the cofferdam and the dry dike. , these are the places where problems are most likely to occur.”

Han Yu took a deep breath and said with a wry smile, "I know, Mr. Xi, you might not believe me if I told you. I don't dare to speak loudly now, and I have to tiptoe when I walk on the embankment!"

The young man made a great contribution this time, but he did not complete the task.

Only by filling in the big gap that has changed from a large pond to a small harbor basin as he said in the morning, and "patching" the joint between the new embankment and the main embankment, can everything be considered complete.

Nevertheless, Xi Gong is still very happy.

After all, what the young man said by "holding on barely" has already saved tens of thousands of people, or even more!

Mr. Xi turned around and looked at Vice President L who was condolences to the people in the distance, and said with a smile: "Salted fish, Vice President L was really shocked when he received the warning. It was later confirmed that it was just a breach of the dangerous embankment, and the cofferdam you repaired successfully blocked it. He finally breathed a sigh of relief after drowning the water gushing in. He praised you in front of the chief of the military region, saying that you have made great contributions!"

"What's the use of praise? It's true to send more emergency supplies."

"Why don't you know what's good and what's wrong, kid? Do you know how high the evaluation of meritorious service is? I won't tell you. I'll report to the chief."
