Riverside Police.

On August 8, a team went upstream and returned to the waters of Shashi.

The second detachment went down the river and returned to the tuning gate again. At the request of the Shishou City Defense Office, it organized forces to continue strengthening the embankment on the south bank of the Jingjiang River.

The excavator driver of the Navigation Bureau is much better after taking the medicine and can go into battle.

Han Yu no longer needs to do it himself, and can finally sleep.

When I woke up, it was already eight o'clock in the evening, and when I walked out of the old man's dormitory, it was raining lightly again, and the river was very windy and choppy.

"Secretary Han, wash your face quickly, I'll ask the cooking team to bring some food over."

"I'm not hungry now, I'll have supper with the big guys later."

Han Yu declined Deputy Director Yu's kindness, opened the door and walked into the small meeting room.

Han Gong now not only observes and predicts weather changes, but also helps to answer the phone and receive the latest notifications from the Yangtze River Defense Command and Jingzhou Defense Command.

"Dad, is there anything about Hong Feng?"

"Have."

There is a telephone line here, and you can receive faxes.

Han Gong stubbed out the cigarette butt, took out a fax from the folder, and said worriedly: "The Yangtze River Defense Command reported that the Changyi flood peak flow has reached 61500 cubic meters per second, and it will arrive in Shashi at about 4:[-] am the day after tomorrow."

Han Yu sat down and asked, "61500 cubic meters per second!"

"If the water level of the Jingjiang River can drop within two days, it should be able to withstand the fourth flood peak. The problem is that the water level of the Jingjiang River will remain high due to the downstream flood. I just talked to Mr. Xi on the phone. Mr. Xi expects that after the flood peak enters the Jingjiang River , the water level in Shashi and Jianli will exceed the highest level in history, especially the water level in Shashi is likely to reach 45 meters."

"The upper limit water level of Jingjiang flood diversion is 45 meters!"

"So Angong County is mobilizing the masses to evacuate. This time it is different from when the danger occurred on the section of the Yangliu Village. Instead of evacuating a hundred thousand people, three 10,000+ people will be evacuated. Political Commissar Yang called in the afternoon and said that Peng Tuan Changzheng led officers and soldiers to assist the local government in organizing the evacuation of the masses."

The main force of the 132nd regiment originally planned to return to the station, but was recalled by the superior to Angong County on the way back to the station to continue fighting the flood.

The officers and soldiers were very tired after working hard for nearly a month.

However, compared with the officers and soldiers of the 132nd regiment, the masses in Angong County are more difficult. Tens of 10 people will leave their homes in just two days. The scene of evacuation is unimaginable.

Han Gong didn't know what his son-in-law was thinking, and continued: "If the flood diversion project is activated, the Jingjiang levee on the side of Shashi should be able to hold, but the flood situation on Shishou and Jianli downstream is still severe. Xi Gong said that Beihu Provincial Defense It means that the ten heads have been ordered to abandon the town of Hekou, and Jian Li's Sanzhoulian embankment has been ordered to flood the mouth."

The Hekou Town in Shishou is the folk embankment that the 127th regiment is defending. The embankment is like a peninsula extending into the Yangtze River from the two embankments that were flooded before, turning the east-west Yangtze River into a north-south direction. The total area is about 180 square kilometers.

Abandoning Hekou Town is equivalent to cutting the bend and straightening it. Not only can it store and discharge floodwater, but it can also reduce the pressure on the south bank dike of Jingjiang River and Bayi dike on the side of the Second Detachment.

Sanzhou Lianyuan is the largest civil embankment in Jianli County, with a total area of ​​nearly [-] square kilometers!

If Angong uses the flood diversion project and Shishou and Jianli abandon the two large embankments at the same time, how many ordinary people's homes will be flooded, and how many ordinary people will be displaced?

Although he has the best mechanized construction equipment, the most professional flood fighting and rescue personnel, and the strongest logistical support, Han Yu feels that the strength of the emergency rescue commando in the face of natural disasters is so small. Hong Feng, who continued to remain high and superimposed multiple times, found that there was not much he could do.

"Mayor Qin and Deputy Commander Tao of the Jiangnan Reserve Division are here. They arrived last night. After consoling the Second Detachment today, they went across the river to condolences to the 132nd Regiment accompanied by Mayor Shen. Now they are accompanied by Commander Peng. Go down to the 404th Division Command Post."

Han Gong looked at the phone records and added: "They originally planned to stay in Angong County for one night and come to visit us early tomorrow morning. But Angong is organizing the evacuation of the people there. Although there is a levee around the Angong County, no one will I can't guarantee whether I can hold it, the county is in chaos, and I called just now to say that they are rushing to us overnight."

What are you asking for condolences at this time...

Han Yu was not very interested in whether Deputy Mayor Qin and Deputy Teacher Tao came to express their condolences, so he asked, "Dad, is there any news from Xu Mingyuan and Ma Jintao?"

"Yes, together with the water search and rescue fleet convened by Jianli County, they conducted a drag-net search on several embankments for flood storage in Pakou, and transferred some people from the lower villages to the embankment, but there are still 3000 people. Many people are unwilling to leave."

"When the flood peak comes, the water level will rise, so what if we don't go!"

"The local government is working. For those people who are on higher ground, living on the roof, and really don't want to leave, the local government has no good way. It can only organize ships to deliver some relief supplies."

Han Gong paused, and then said: "Considering that Xu Mingyuan and the others have exhausted their physical strength and energy due to continuous fighting, Political Commissar Yang sent them back in the afternoon. They are on their way back now, and they should be 'home' before twelve o'clock. Secretary Wang asked the cooking team to prepare some extra supper, and the cabins where they lived were also tidied up."

In just half a month, the water search and rescue company went from Jingzhou to Hanwu, from Hanwu to Xiang'an, then from Xiang'an to Yujia, and from Yujia to Jianli, and traveled nearly [-] kilometers to Beihu and Nanhu provinces. It's really tiring.

"After returning, let the water search and rescue teams of the Sanlian and the 127th Regiment take a good rest for two days." Han Yu took a deep breath, thought about it and asked, "Where are Xiaojun and Mengmeng?"

"I went to the Shajiabang regiment for rounds. Although the Shajiabang regiment has only been here for a few days, there are more than a dozen wounded, and one cadre is suffering from acute schistosomiasis."

"They are drinking dirty water!"

"Don't worry, Xiaojun said that now it is different from before. Now there are special medicines, and schistosomiasis is no longer an incurable disease."

Han Yu finally breathed a sigh of relief, and asked, "Where's Dongdong?"

"Dongdong was young, and Huang Chu reported his deeds to the public. The Beihu Provincial Youth Development Foundation called in the afternoon and said that he would give Dongdong a review of 'a good boy who stands up to justice'. Your brother-in-law feels that too many honors are not conducive to Dongdong's growth. , Secretary Tuo Wang declined the kindness of Beihu Youth Development Foundation.”

People are afraid of famous pigs.

It's not a good thing to get too much limelight as a kid.

Han Gong agreed with Zhang Jiangkun's approach, and continued: "Your brother-in-law thinks that it is inappropriate for Dongdong to be in charge of the filling team, so I discussed with Li Battalion Commander and asked a platoon leader to replace Dongdong and let Dongdong go The water supply team helped drive boats to deliver water to the people who moved to the embankment, so that Dongdong could feel the suffering in the world."

It's a bit too much to judge Dongdong as a third-class meritorious service.

The reason why the superior gave Dongdong the third-class merit was probably more because of Dongdong's age, and wanted to set a good example of a small reserve soldier.

Han Yu also felt that he couldn't pull the seedlings to encourage others, so he murmured: "It's the [-]th today, and school starts on September [-]st. High school is very important. Dongdong can't always follow us to fight the flood. After Mayor Qin comes to express condolences, let him and Mayor Qin When you grow back, call my sister and ask her to borrow some books for the first year of high school, so that Dongdong can study hard."

"Dongdong may not be able to go back."

"Why can't you go back?"

Han Gong smiled bitterly and said, "Ge Ju asked his superiors to send a letter to the Donghai Garrison District. The Armed Forces Department of Pudong New District and Weifang Street in Pudong New District sent good news to your sister. They also invited the principal of Yangjing Middle School to deliver the good news. lead.

The principal finds Dongdong, a freshman who is fighting the flood, and thinks Dongdong is the pride of the school. He entrusts Changhang Public Security Bureau to bring a lot of high school textbooks for Dongdong to use his spare time to preview. Go back to school. "

Han Yu asked dumbfoundedly: "Is it necessary to make such an exaggeration?"

"It's necessary." Han Gong admired Ge Ju from the bottom of his heart, and sighed, "If you don't notify Donghai, they won't go to condolences, and your sister won't have tens of thousands of condolences."

"Tens of thousands!"

"The street rewarded [-], your brother-in-law and Dongdong each received [-]. Donghai Changhang Hospital rewarded [-], and your brother-in-law and Dongdong each received [-]."

Han Gong looked at his son-in-law's astonishment, and explained: "Donghai is rich, and the work of supporting the army in Donghai is very good. Even for conscripts who have not made any meritorious service, the local government will subsidize more than 1 yuan in the army for one year. Those who have failed will be rewarded!"

Han Yu was really envious, and couldn't help asking: "Did people treat my brother-in-law and Dongdong as people from the East China Sea?"

"What does it mean to be a native of the East China Sea?"

"Didn't my brother-in-law not be transferred?"

"who said it."

"Have you transferred?"

"Although your sister's wife is here, her work relationship has already been transferred to the East China Sea Salvage Bureau. Ge Ju said on the phone that the salvage bureau leader is very happy and takes it seriously. Although I haven't met your brother-in-law, the position and duties have been arranged."

"What position, what position?"

"The deputy section chief of the Engineering Fleet Machinery Section of the Salvage Bureau is responsible for the maintenance of the engineering fleet."

Han Gong paused, thought about it and smiled again: "You can see the project overview card that Secretary Wang asked Lao Chen to write. Now the emergency construction units are not only Linghai Road and Bridge Company, Yangtze River Waterway Bureau and Yangtze River Waterway Project Bureau, there is another East China Sea Salvage Bureau of the Ministry of Communications."

"My brother-in-law represents the Salvage Bureau alone!"

"Not only representing the Salvage Bureau, but also representing the East China Sea with Dongdong." Han Gong also thought this was a bit funny, and after thinking about it, he added: "What's wrong with representing the Salvage Bureau alone? Li Jun alone represents the Jiangnan Provincial Frontier Defense Corps Woolen cloth."

Han Yu was completely convinced, sat down and asked, "Dad, is there anything else I don't know."

The son-in-law was only busy organizing and directing emergency rescue, but he didn't know that this was normal.

Han Gong opened the drawer, found a roster of personnel, and said: "The water search and rescue company has several reserve soldiers from various towns. Since they had rural household registration before joining the army, the government did not arrange formal jobs for them after retiring. A few days ago, Linghai converted them from rural areas to non-agricultural businesses. The customs recruited them and turned them into customs employees.”

"Who did this?"

"Ge Ju, Ge Ju handled it all by himself. He had a heart-to-heart talk with those soldiers, and all of them were willing to work in the customs."

"Any more?"

"Have."

Han Gong glanced at the roster, and then said: "Changzhou and Gaoru have two loader drivers and one forklift driver here. Go to Secretary Ye and Mayor Qian.

Secretary Ye and Mayor Qian asked them to contact Ge Ju directly, and they didn't know how Ge Ju talked with them. Anyway, they took this opportunity to find jobs for a few soldiers who hadn't been placed in formal jobs before. . "

"Do you know the specific position?"

"It seems to be going to the procuratorate and the court to be a judicial policeman."

The procuratorate, like the court, has police cars and civilian police, but most of the police in the procuratorate and court are not state cadres.

His subordinates could take this opportunity to find a job. Han Yu was very happy from the bottom of his heart. He took the roster handed over by his father-in-law, looked at the work unit just mentioned at the back of the list, and couldn't help laughing: "No wonder they see me these days. Just laugh, it turns out there is a good thing."

Just as he was talking, Secretary Wang's call came from the intercom.

"Han Gong Han Gong, is Xianyu awake? Mayor Qin and Deputy Teacher Tao are here. Hurry up and ask Xianyu to pick them up."

"Wake up, we're talking, I'll let him ashore now."

When the superior comes, he must go ashore to greet him.

Han Yu took the walkie-talkie and went downstairs, walked ashore along the steel pontoon, and saw two military vehicles parked on the bank, and Secretary Wang was standing by the vehicle talking with Deputy Mayor Qin and Deputy Teacher Tao.

Deputy Mayor Shen also came and was standing by the car to answer the phone.

"Hello, Mayor Qin, and Deputy Teacher Tao, welcome to our camp to inspect the work of the two leaders."

"Salted fish, you have worked hard."

"Fortunately."

"Comrade Han Yu, we meet again."

"Deputy Master Tao, did the journey from An Gong go smoothly?"

If you don't come to the disaster area to see it, you don't know how difficult the disaster area is.

Deputy Master Tao subconsciously looked back and said with emotion: "Angong County is organizing the evacuation of the masses, and some of the masses will be transferred to Shishou. All the way along the way are people who dragged their families to Shishou. It seems that it hurts to look at it."

Deputy Mayor Qin was also upset, and said solemnly: "The common people see that we are riding in military vehicles, and think we are here to fight the flood. If they see us, give way to us, otherwise we would have been blocked on the road."

"More than 30 people are going to be evacuated this time. There are those who turn out and those who turn in. Everyone wants to bring more things. It's normal to be blocked on the road."

"Xianyu, you are the captain of the emergency rescue commando, and you are the most well-informed. Do you think the superiors will give orders to divert the flood?"

"It depends on the water level. As long as it does not exceed the upper limit of flood diversion, there is no need for flood diversion, but it is very necessary to organize the evacuation of the people in the area of ​​the flood diversion project in advance. The lessons learned from Anzao embankment and Paizhou Bay are there. Only in advance Only by organizing the evacuation can the safety of the masses be ensured."

While inviting the leaders to board the boat, Han Yu continued: "Our water search and rescue company participated in the water search and rescue of two breached embankments. Please ask Xugong from the Hydrology Bureau of the Yangtze River Water Conservancy Commission to conduct statistical analysis."

Deputy Commander Tao looked bewildered, not knowing what the battalion commander in front of him, who had never been a soldier, wanted to say.

Deputy Mayor Qin made a rough guess, and asked in a low voice, "Have the analysis results come out? Is there any reference for our Binjiang's future flood control?"

"The results come out, which is of reference value."

Han Yu invited the three leaders to the duty room of the barge, opened the drawer and took out a copy of XCMG's statistical analysis materials, and introduced: "Taking Paizhou Bay as an example, during the 1954 years from 44 to this year when the flood occurred, the embankment of Paizhou Bay has been continuously There has been no embankment breach, and the people living in the embankment have not experienced major floods for a long time and lack knowledge of floods. Although relevant departments organize flood control every year, they have never carried out publicity and education on how to prevent floods.

The tall embankment creates an illusion of security for the people inside the embankment. This situation exists not only in the North Lake and South Lake, but also in Linghai and even Binjiang.It directly leads the masses to ignore the threat of floods and relax their vigilance against flood hazards.

Relevant departments only focus on water conservancy construction, basically do not consider the risk of floods, ignore flood control measures, only prevent [-], not just in case, and do not make relevant preparations or even make decisions in case of embankment failure.It directly caused the flood to break through the dike and dam, and the people who went up to the party and government departments and went down to the dike were all panicked and at a loss, and didn't know how to save themselves or save others. "

Deputy Commander Tao was stunned, and couldn't believe that a reserve battalion commander was thinking about this.

Deputy Mayor Qin thought it was normal. After all, Xianyu was originally the "Admiral of the Binjiang Navy", and the particularity of his job determined that he had to consider preventing various disasters before they happened.

XCMG's statistical analysis materials are very comprehensive, and the data are also very complete.

For example, in Paizhou Bay, more than 70% of the people think that the levee will not burst.

After the embankment breached, 70% of the people received the news of the collapse. The main ways to receive the news of the collapse were broadcasting, mutual transmission among villagers, and alarms from police stations.

After the masses received the news of the levee burst, they mainly ran to the levee to avoid the flood, and then went upstairs to avoid the flood, including going to nearby buildings, neighbors or relatives and friends, climbing trees and preparing boats or other floating objects. rare.

The victims were mainly concentrated in several villages near the breach.

A considerable number of those who died were caught in water on the way to the embankment from abandoned buildings, and those who went upstairs to wait for rescue or hid from their bungalows to neighbors' buildings basically survived.Those who can't find or run to the building in time and can only climb trees to escape the flood have a high chance of survival.

In other words, if the flood comes, don't panic, don't run to the embankment, but find a high place nearby to avoid the flood, the chance of survival is much higher than abandoning the building and rushing to the embankment!
After reading the statistics and analysis materials, Deputy Mayor Qin raised his head and said, "Salted fish, this statistical data has important reference value, have you reported it to the Yangtze River Defense Command?"

"Reported. We have telephone and fax machines here. Not only did we report to the Yangtze River Defense Headquarters and Jingzhou Defense Command, but we also reported to the defense offices of districts and counties along the line, such as Angong and Shishou. The leaders of Angong County informed us The situation is very serious, and yesterday at noon we broadcasted how to prevent it.”

"There is a fax machine, right? Send us a copy of Binjiang City's anti-finger."

"Mayor Qin, how do I send it?"

"I'll sign." Deputy Mayor Qin took out a pen, wrote instructions under the material, signed his name, and handed it to Han Yu.

Deputy Mayor Qin saw that Deputy Master Tao was stunned, and explained: "Although we in Binjiang have confidence in whether the Yangtze River embankment can stop the flood, we have several Jiangxinzhou. What Xianyu said is right, if you are not afraid of [-], you are afraid of [-]. If there are precautions, at least casualties can be reduced as much as possible.”
