Chapter 674 Not easy!
The third flood peak of the Yangtze River reached Hanwu today, and it will reach Binjiang in three days.

Judging from the flood report of the Provincial Defense Command, this time the flood peak is more ferocious than the previous two.

Despite his confidence in the embankment of the Yangtze River in Binjiang, Secretary Lu still rushed to the city defense director at the Water Conservancy Bureau to listen to the report and guide all districts, counties and units in the city to face the coming flood peak.

Flood fighting is a top priority now, and several deputy mayors are responsible for a district or county.

Deputy Mayor Qin is in charge of Chonggang District and has reported on the flood control work in the development zone.According to the schedule formulated by the General Office of the Municipal Party Committee, he went downstairs and took a car to accompany Secretary Lu for an on-site inspection.

The first stop is Chonggang District.

Chonggang District is the main urban area of ​​Binjiang, and the flood control work in the main urban area must be done well.

As a result, when the convoy came near the Port Authority, they saw a convoy full of banners and red flags coming out of the Port Authority with beating gongs and drums, and headed straight for the Shuishui Public Security Bureau.

Secretary Lu felt very strange, and subconsciously asked, "What's going on?"

"I'll call and ask." Secretary Xiao, who was sitting in the co-pilot, quickly took out his mobile phone.

"Xiao Xiao, stop calling, I know."

Deputy Mayor Qin looked at the convoy passing by outside the window, and explained with a smile: "The Linghai Reserve Battalion not only won the collective first-class merit, more than 20 pre-appointed officers and soldiers including Xianyu were also awarded by the Guangzhou Military Region, 105 The Army and the 404th Division recorded first-class merit, second-class merit and third-class merit respectively.

When the news reached Linghai, those in Linghai would naturally not miss this opportunity.Ye Yongguang and Yang Changyu, director of the National People's Congress, personally came to the urban area to send good news to the customs, port supervision bureau, border inspection station, water sub-bureau, long-distance navigation sub-bureau, and the Fishery Administration Station of the Agriculture Bureau.

Several "boss officers" in the development zone went to Beihu to fight the flood, and most of them made meritorious service.Qian Zhiyong went too far, and went to the development zone early this morning to deliver the good news.It was said to be sending good news, but in fact it was to poach Luo Hongxin's corner, and Luo Hongxin was so angry that he called me to complain. "

The Linghai Reserve Battalion won the collective first-class meritorious service, and Xianyu and other pre-appointed officers and soldiers received awards for their meritorious service. Secretary Lu knew about it last night, but he never expected that Linghai would send the happy news with great fanfare.

"Why don't they go to the Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Government to beat the gongs and drums!"

"No one in the city's government is serving in the reserve service, let alone go to Beihu to fight the flood. Otherwise, they might really go, and you and Mayor Wang will welcome you warmly."

Ye Yongguang and Qian Zhiyong now represent the local party committee and government!
If you think about it carefully, if there are cadres and workers in the municipal government who fought against the flood in Beihu and received awards for their meritorious service, they beat gongs and drums to the municipal party committee and government to send the good news. The warm reception as the deputy mayor said.

Secretary Lu was so confused, he laughed and cursed: "If you don't do business all day, you will know how to sensationalize and fight!"

"The one awarded is the collective first-class merit. It should be the first among the reserve troops in Jiangnan Province. There are not many in the whole country."

Deputy Mayor Qin smiled, thought about it, and then sighed: "And this collective first-class merit is recorded by the Guangzhou Military Region! Among other things, let's talk about the Angle Red Flag Militia Regiment of Sigang, which was captured by Nanshan decades ago. The Beijing Military District recorded a third-class merit, and it is still being promoted to this day."

It is indeed not easy to get such an honor, but it is indeed remarkable.

Secretary Lu was just as happy, but when he thought of those people from Linghai who came to the urban area to beat gongs and drums like a demonstration, he couldn't help laughing and scolding: "We were too conservative a while ago, always worrying about this and that, and ended up being careless in Jingzhou. Let them take advantage of the loophole."

"Secretary Lu, Linghai's results are also our Binjiang's results, and we have nothing to lose. The most aggrieved thing should be the development zone, where people, effort and money are spent, but the results are not related to the development zone."

"This is similar to doing business with a partnership. If you want to do it, you must be a major shareholder, and you must not be a minority shareholder, otherwise you will have no right to speak."

"It's not just that they don't have the right to speak, they don't even have the right to know."

"What right to know?" Secretary Lu asked curiously.

Deputy Mayor Qin sympathized with Luo Hongxin, and explained with a smile: "Linghai is like an iron rooster, and he doesn't want to give him his grades. He is angry but wants to get some grades back. He plans to go to Beihu to condolences to the officers and soldiers in the development zone. But The North Lake is so big, and the Jingjiang River is hundreds of kilometers long, he doesn't know where the salted fish are, and he can't find a place to go to express condolences."

Secretary Lu asked with a smile, "Can't you give away the money?"

"The central government requires all provinces and cities along the river to strictly guard against death. Linghai is also strictly guarding the development zone now. Those officers and soldiers in the development zone who are fighting floods in Beihu cannot get through on their mobile phones, and they cannot be contacted at all."

"Has he asked Ye Yongguang and Qian Zhiyong?"

"Asked."

"Ye Yongguang and Qian Zhiyong didn't tell him?"

"The two in Linghai made an excuse that where the troops are stationed is a military secret and cannot be disclosed without the consent of the management unit of the Linghai Reserve Battalion."

"Has he contacted the airborne regiment that is in charge of the Xianyu battalion?"

"He wants to get in touch, but he doesn't know how."

"He can call Xianyu directly."

"Xianyu must either organize and direct emergency rescue, or take time to rest, so no one, including me, can contact Xianyu, and Xianyu's mobile phone cannot be busy."

Secretary Lu was stunned, and asked in a low voice, "Haven't you ever called?"

Deputy Mayor Qin confirmed: "No, I haven't played Xianyu since I left."

As soon as Xianyu arrived in Beihu, he organized the commanders and soldiers to rescue the emergency. He was so busy that he didn't even have time to report to the vice president L. Calling Xianyu was just adding trouble to Xianyu.

Besides, Xianyu is the person who does things, there is no need to get involved in these messy things, let alone distract Xianyu because of these messy things.

"It's true that you can't call Xianyu."

Secretary Lu nodded slightly, thought about it, and said, "Luo Hongxin can still stick to his principles after being bullied like this, which shows that he still has a big picture. Being bullied is not a bad thing for him. Only by suffering a little loss can he truly realize the complexity of grassroots work, and only then can he truly realize his shortcomings."

"At the end of the day, he still lacks experience at the grassroots level. How can he play tricks with Ye Yongguang and Qian Zhiyong?"

"So it's not a bad thing for him to suffer a little. The lesson Ye Yongguang and Qian Zhiyong taught him is probably something he will never forget in his life."

"Secretary Lu, why don't you let him go to express condolences?"

"He has nothing to do with the development zone. Why should he ask for condolences? Besides, the lesson of Ye Yongguang and Qian Zhiyong crossing the river and demolishing the bridge should not be let him take it for nothing. Let him have a long memory and learn some lessons, so that he will know how to do work later. Be down-to-earth, you can't always think of taking shortcuts, and you can't foolishly seek skins from tigers."

Luo Hongxin is still capable, but lacks grassroots work experience, and it's normal for those two who can't play Linghai.

Deputy Mayor Qin realized Secretary Lu's good intentions and said with a smile: "It makes sense, then I will leave him alone."

Secretary Lu pondered: "Luo Hongxin doesn't need to go to express his condolences, but you have to go. After the third Hong Feng is sent away, you will go there yourself."

"Row."

"By the way, what is Shen Fan busy with?"

"The construction of Linghai Development Zone, especially Linghai Port, is at the most critical time. Ye Yongguang and Qian Zhiyong originally did not intend to let him return to Beihu Lake, but now the situation has changed. Not only will the flood come back, but there may be a fourth or even a flood. For the possibility of the fifth flood peak, the Guangzhou Military Region has given him a second-class merit, and he, the first secretary, must hurry back to the front line of flood fighting."

"Did you leave?"

"Let's go, I left last night."

"He came back early. After remembering the merits, he rushed back in a hurry. He won't say anything."

"Will not."

Deputy Mayor Qin smiled and explained: "When the salted fish set off, they only prepared supplies for a month, such as grain and oil, and they were almost finished. Oil, melons, fruits and vegetables can be purchased locally, but rice can't. The officers and soldiers were not used to eating rice.

Another example is the spare parts of some equipment, which can only be purchased from our side or in the East China Sea.So Shen Fan didn't go there empty-handed this time, but with seventeen truckloads of supplies.The Changhang branch arranged a police car to escort him, and he personally took the car to escort him. "

"That's fine."

Secretary Lu nodded in satisfaction, and then said: "Old Qin, you can't go empty-handed in a few days. During this period, various districts, counties and units have donated several million. You can call Shen Fan later to ask Shen Fan. If you need any supplies urgently, you can prepare them now and bring them with you when the time comes."

……

At the same time, a team of the emergency rescue team ushered in a barge.

The water life boat just towed from Hanwu comes from the Yangtze River Waterway Bureau, and it turned out to be the water dormitory for the staff of the Waterway Bureau.

This is the concern of the leaders of the Long Navigation Bureau for the Linghai Reserve Battalion, and they want to improve the living environment of the officers and soldiers of the Linghai Reserve Battalion.

What moved Xianyu even more was that the leaders of the Long-term Navigation Bureau knew that there were not enough excavator drivers, so they transferred two excavator drivers from the First Navigation Engineering Bureau through the Ministry of Communications!
Just as the boat and two drivers were arranged, Xiaoyu and Li Jun also arrived on the boat delivering water to the second detachment.

"Dried salted fish, I'm busy over there, what's the rush?"

"Secretary Han, do you have a new mission?"

"Ah."

Han Yu raised the walkie-talkie and pointed to Xu Mingyuan and others who were busy on the embankment: "Sanlian has been carrying out water search and rescue missions at Dongting Lake. to four hours."

Li Jun asked in surprise: "The embankment has been breached for several days, and they are still searching for rescue?"

"The embankment is very large, and there are not many troops capable of carrying out search and rescue missions. In addition, many people have no time to evacuate when the breach occurs. They either take shelter on the safety building or on the safety platform to avoid the flood. It takes a lot of people to move out. time."

"Are there any casualties among the masses?"

"Yes, as of this morning, more than 50 people have drowned, and this is only countable."

Han Yu took a deep breath, and continued: "The water search and rescue unit of the 127th Regiment was temporarily incorporated into the third company. Ma Jintao called and said that the search and rescue team of the 127th Regiment was only equipped with ten assault boats and had not received systematic water search and rescue training. Those ten assault boats are really working, and they urgently need experienced rescuers.”

Xiaoyu subconsciously asked: "Shall we go?"

Han Yu nodded and explained: "Wait there, the third company will be fully commanded by the senior brother, no matter Ma Jintao, Chen Youren, or you, everyone including the water search and rescue team of the 127th regiment must obey the orders of the senior brother. "

Senior brother has the oldest qualifications and has been the captain of the criminal police team. He also has rich experience in water search and rescue. Naturally, Xiao Yu will not have any objections if he is commanded by senior brother. Not blocked?"

"The situation over there is more complicated, and the blockage depends entirely on manpower. Nanhu has already requested military support, and it is estimated that it will be blocked soon."

"What do you mean by more complicated?"

"I don't have the conditions for large-scale construction machinery construction, otherwise we would have gone to help."

"Can't the equipment be transported?"

"It should be. In short, your next task is to focus on water rescue."

Xiaoyu asked worriedly: "I'm going to drive the assault boat to save people, who will drive the excavator?"

Han Yu explained: "Someone opened it, and the Changjiang Aviation Bureau helped us transfer two excavator masters with rich construction experience."

Li Jun asked in a low voice: "Secretary Han, all our party members and commandos are going to participate in water rescue. Who will be there when manpower is needed to assist in emergency construction?"

"The 132nd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment has just formed a party member commando, and the second battalion commander Li Shousong personally serves as the commando leader." Han Yu paused, and added: "Although the work of the party member commando is hard, tiring and dangerous, the technical content It’s not very high, and I’m sure they can handle it.”

"Okay, when do we leave?"

"Eldest brother is making preparations on the shore, and you can set off when the car purchased by the logistics support team returns."

"Yes!"

"Be careful when you get there."

"Don't worry, we are professionals in doing this!"

In terms of water rescue, it is immodest to say that the army pontoon and bridge troops here may not necessarily have Xiaoyu and Li Jun as professionals.

After all, Xiaoyu grew up on a boat, and after joining the work, he engaged in water law enforcement and water rescue.Although Li Jun did not grow up on a ship, he has been working on the riverside since he joined the army, and even often went to the river to perform guardianship tasks for foreign ships.

For the two of them, Han Yu really had nothing to worry about.

Just as he was planning to let the two of them quickly go to the cooking boat to cook food, Xiaoyu asked in puzzlement: "Dried salted fish, what happened to South Lake? Why do so many people live in the lake area?"

Han Yu didn't expect him to ask this question, and said helplessly, "I didn't know at the beginning, but I heard it from Mr. Xi later. It is said that in the late 50s, under the guidance of the big Y Jin's thought of 'taking grain as the key link', In order to solve the food problem and increase land reclamation to support agricultural cooperatives to meet the needs of national socialist industrial construction, both the central and local governments put grain production as the focus of various tasks.

There was a trend of encircling lakes to build fields all over the country, and slogans such as "take food as the key link" and "run into communism" were overwhelming.At that time, the leaders of Nanhu Lake made the decision to reclamate the lake area, asking for "money" and "food" from Dongting Lake. "

"And then?" Xiaoyu asked.

"I have never been to Anzuo embankment, and I don't know the situation of Anzao embankment."

Han Yu pointed to the tuning string gate not far away, and said with a wry smile: "I only know the origin of the tuning string gate. Behind the gate is the tuning string river, which goes south through Shishou, passes through Ronghua County in Nanhu Province, and flows into the river. Qianliang Lake in Xiang'an County, Nanhu Province.

Qianliang Lake is actually a part of Dongting Lake. At that time, the guiding ideology of Nanhu Lake was that Qianliang Lake was connected to Tiaoxian River. To reclaim Qianliang Lake, the upstream water must be blocked first.Therefore, Nanhu asked Beihu Province to block the tuning port.

In fact, they want to carry out large-scale reclamation, and they really need to block the mouth to reduce the pressure of flood control, but the blockage not only involves the two provinces of Beihu and Nanhu, but also involves the flood control of Xijiang Province.In the end, the leaders of the three provinces held a three-province water conservancy meeting in the general meeting room of the National Academy of W, and finally decided on the resolution of tuning and blocking the gate, and the current gate came into being. "

Unexpectedly, the gate not far away has such a history.

Xiaoyu was stunned for a moment, and then asked: "Where are those folk embankments of Mr. An?"

"The situation in Angong is different from the situation in An County, a township in Nanhu Province. Although there are many embankments in Angong, the family has lived there for generations, and the history can be traced back to the Tang Dynasty or even earlier."

"But many places in Angong are flood diversion areas, how can people live in flood diversion areas!"

"It's not what you think it is."

"What do you mean?"

"Only more than half of Angong's area belongs to the Jingjiang flood diversion project area. Since it is a flood diversion project, it means that it is only a flood diversion area when it is in use, and it is not when it is not in use."

Han Yu took a deep breath, and continued: "Also, the three flood diversions in 1954 were not for protecting myself, but for protecting the Jingjiang embankment, the Jianghan Plain on the north bank, and even Hanwu."

Li Jun's education level is much higher than Xiaoyu's. Knowing the situation in Angong County, he couldn't help sighing: "It's really not easy for Angong to give up my family to protect everyone."

"There are even more difficult things."

Han Yu raised his arms to look at the time on his watch, and said solemnly: "Xi Gong said that the funds allocated by the state for the construction of the Jingjiang flood diversion project, including the maintenance of the Jingjiang flood diversion project, were not enough at all, and a large part of the funds came from Angong County. of.

That is to say, people spend money and effort to build flood diversion projects, but in the end, they dig holes to flood their own homes to protect other people's homes!

And living in the flood diversion project area is the same as living in other places. The state does not give them any preferential policies.Since the embankment of the river is longer than that of other places, there are even more river workers than other places. "

Xiaoyu was stunned, and after a long while, he murmured: "The people in Angong County are too miserable!"

Compared with the people in Angong County, Han Yu felt that the people in Linghai were really happy, and sighed softly: "Ge Bureau said that in response to the three flood peaks and Jingnan floods that just passed, Angong County ran out of money, and the finance department There is no penny in the account of the bureau, and even a loan from the bank."

Li Jun reacted: "No wonder the people have to collect flood control fees from the common people. It turns out that they really have no money."

Han Yu nodded, clenched his fists and said: "So we must do our best to defend the Jingjiang embankment. Only by defending the Jingjiang embankment will we not have to use the Jingjiang flood diversion project like in 1954. Otherwise, the losses in Angong County will be even greater. The people in Angong County life will be more difficult.”
