Riverside Police.

In order to speed up the construction of the "landing site", and in order to transport the materials needed for the ferry to the leakage point as quickly as possible, Wu Haili ordered the floating crane to continuously transport the stones and sandbag cages transported by the transport fleet to the "landing point" embankment. Throw it in the water outside the section, and then hang it inside the embankment after throwing it outside.

Stones are worthless, but they are very precious to Jingzhou now, and they are reluctant to use them in general dangers.

I don’t care about that much now. When there are only one-third of the stone left in the several transport ships, let the driver drive the ship forward to assist the PLA officers, soldiers and militiamen to plug the leaks.

All the quilts of the crew were requisitioned, because the plugging effect is better when wrapped in quilts.As for what to cover when the night is cool in the next few days, I will talk about it later.

At the same time, Deputy Mayor Zhong also transferred three shipments of stone and six shipments of rice from the other side!
Who knows dishes on the menu, A Journey.

Food is very precious, but now we can't take care of so much. If we want to keep the main embankment of the Yangtze River, we can only use all the materials that can be mobilized.

At this time, Han Yu followed Master Qian into the headquarters in the shack.

When Deputy Mayor Zhong saw Han Yu arriving, he finally breathed a sigh of relief, and said eagerly, "Captain Han, you came just in time..."

Han Yu didn't care to listen to what he said, picked up the pen and paper on the Pofang table, leaned over and drew while saying, "Mayor Zhong, I just watched the scene, and I think the only way to ensure everything is safe is to rush to build a cofferdam. "

"Okay, you are a professional, how do you say rush to build?"

"From here to here, the pipe spout is enclosed. Our engineering and technical personnel are setting out the lines. Our earthwork construction team and earthwork transportation team will be able to enter the battle in at most 15 minutes."

While marking on the hand-drawn map, Han Yu continued: "So now we have to divide into four groups, the leaks on the water side of the levee must continue to be blocked, and the overflowing and breached sub-dikes must be raised and blocked against time. In view of the fact that too much water in the embankment is not conducive to earthwork construction, it is necessary to seize the time to organize people to dig drainage ditches and carry out earthwork operations at the same time."

Deputy Mayor Zhong asked: "How long will it take for the cofferdam to be built?"

"The top priority now is to block the water. The quality of the project is not unimportant, but we don't have time to think about it so much. What we need to do now is to organize the forces to repair and surround it as quickly as possible! The first team has arrived, and the second team is coming. On the way, we should be able to go into battle in two hours, and it will take us about five and a half hours to build the cofferdam with a total length of 600 meters."

"Okay, that's it, Mr. Qian, how about we divide the work..."

Once you have a relatively safe rescue plan, you will know how to do it.

The temporarily established military-civilian joint rescue headquarters started operations in just 5 minutes, and was divided into four teams: plugging leaks, sealing and raising dike breaches, draining water, and rushing to repair cofferdams.

The Minister of Armed Forces of Shishou City was responsible for organizing and commanding the militia and some officers and soldiers of the 60th Division to plug the leak. Division Commander Qian organized his subordinates to guard the embankment.

Han Yu is responsible for repairing the cofferdam.

Vice Mayor Zhong took charge of the overall situation.

The soldiers of the 60th Regiment of the 175th Division were divided into two groups, one to support the digging of trenches, and the other to assist the construction of the "Hong Kong Garrison".

Yao Lirong led a deputy head, wading in knee-deep water, and said eagerly as he walked forward: "Deputy head Huang, it's getting dark, we don't have time to solve the lighting problem, so we can only ask you to arrange it." Officers and soldiers serve as road signs for our earthwork transport unit!"

"As a signpost?"

"It's full of water, you can't see the road, and the driver doesn't know where to drive the car. From here to the soil-taking point, there is a person every seven or eight meters, directing our earth-moving vehicles to pass."

"Row."

"I'll find you a hundred flashlights later, and ask your people to ensure the road conditions of each section while guiding the earth transport vehicles to pass, that is to say, check whether there are any pits under the water at any time. Especially in the front section, there is a road on the left. Fish ponds, we must always pay attention to whether the road collapses into the pond."

"Understood, we promise to complete the task!"

As soon as the arrangements were made here, the officers and soldiers of the 402th Regiment of the 127nd Division ran over with red flags and wading through the muddy flood.

Head Zheng was about to find out where the headquarters was, when Political Commissar Yang went up to meet him.

"Old Zheng, you came just in time. The headquarters ordered you to assist our commando to repair the cofferdam!"

"How to help?"

"Li Shousong!"

"To!"

"You take Commander Zheng there, and the 127th regiment will be under your command from now on."

"Yes!"

Let the head of the regiment accept the command of a battalion commander, and he is also the battalion commander of the recruit training camp.

Head Zheng was stunned for a moment, but still said: "Okay, we will listen to you."

……

At 4:24 p.m., all the construction machinery and transportation vehicles of the No. 1 earthwork construction team and No. 1 earthwork transportation unit went ashore. Under the guidance of Zou Xiangyu and more than a dozen officers and soldiers from the 132nd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment, they entered the embankment in the flood water. , slowly drove to the soil-borrowing point.

Nearly [-] PLA ​​officers and soldiers and militiamen responsible for "drainage" are digging drainage ditches, but it takes time to dig the drainage ditches. Even if the ditches can be dug in a short period of time, they want to drain the floodwater that overflowed into the embankment into about [-] kilometers It takes time like the outside and inland rivers.

The excavators of Linghai Road and Bridge Company can only dig soil in the water, and the large dump trucks can only transport earth in the water just like the eight tractors.

A bucket of earthwork was dug out and loaded into the truck body, and muddy water flowed everywhere.

The big dump truck is slightly better, after all, the cab is high enough.

The tractor is different. Lao Cao took a mud bath before he started working.

Han Yu looked uncomfortable, and asked with a portable speaker, "Captain Cao, are you alright?"

"It's okay, as long as you don't turn off the fire, you can do it!"

"Okay, let's start, pay attention to safety."

"understood."

Lao Cao held the steering wheel tightly and took the lead, driving the tractor straight to the place where the cofferdam was built.

The officers and soldiers of the 200th Division of the 60th Group Army of the Jinan Military Region who served as road signs for the "Hong Kong Garrison" suffered a serious crime. The transport vehicles passed in front of them, and the muddy water flowing from the tanks and the muddy water brought up by the wheels not only splashed them all over, but also splashed They smeared and even splashed in their mouths.

But it is related to whether the earthwork transport convoy can pass safely. They cannot hide, but must stick to their positions and direct the vehicles to pass.

The same is true for the "safety officers" from the 132nd Battalion of the 2nd Regiment, especially when directing the earth-moving vehicles to turn around and unload the soil, they have to take a mud bath.

It is easy to be infected with schistosomiasis if this continues, but who cares about schistosomiasis now!

"Master Yang, Master Yang, Leizidi needs sandbags, and there is no way to fill it without soil, so dump the soil over there!"

"Li Shousong, you must not only build sandbag walls, but also cover them with geotextiles. Sandbags filled on site cannot be used to build sandbag walls. We must use sandbags filled by us. Organize people to go to the landing point to carry them. Move quickly!"

……

Han Yu ran around in the muddy flood, giving orders frequently, and became a clay figurine.

At 5:17, 001 used the modified fire protection system to assist in the "drainage" of the embankment, and put the water pipe temporarily installed by the machine repair team into a pond that the officers and soldiers had just dug in the embankment to pump water out of the embankment.

At 5:26, the electricians of the power protection team connected the "ship power" ashore.

Since the cable is not long enough, it cannot solve the lighting of the soil-taking point, but at least it can solve the lighting of the subdike and the cofferdam area under repair.

At 6:48, the engineering fleet of the second detachment arrived 15 minutes earlier than expected.

The situation here and the rescue plan had been reported by high-frequency radio. Hao Qiusheng ordered the No. 3 excavator and the officers and soldiers who came to guide them to assist the "drainage team" in digging drainage ditches as soon as they landed.

The No. 2 earthwork construction team and the No. 2 earthwork transportation team went to the soil-taking point selected by Han Yuzao, just like protecting the dangerous embankment section of Yangliu Village, and worked with a team of earthwork construction teams from both ends at the same time.

At 7:15, good news came from the front. Although the leak was not completely blocked, the speed of water gushing into the embankment and sand turning was controlled. The big "Baotu Spring" became a small "Baotu Spring". Look, you can't see that the water is rushing to the embankment.

At 7:38, the second good news came from the front. With the joint efforts of more than 3000 soldiers and civilians, several breaches on the dike were blocked, and the overflowing part of the dike was also raised.

Just because the previous waterfall is gone, doesn't mean it's safe and sound.

The water level outside the embankment is still rising, and there are still many leaks in the "White Great Wall". If the more than 3000 soldiers and civilians on the embankment and the embankment continue to fight, the water must rise and the embankment must be high!

Like the paratroopers who are rushing to repair the cofferdam, they first spread the colored strips of cloth, tightly bite the two sandbags together like building a wall, build up five or six layers of sandbags, and then roll up the colored strips of cloth Come up, and press the last layer of sandbags on the top, so that the colored strips of cloth can tightly wrap the dike to form a flood-proof capability.

This means continuing to work in the flood waters, and they fill all the sandbags they need and carry them up from under the embankment by themselves.They carried the sandbags and trotted all the way, the muddy water and sweat wet the clothes and pants, and the skin was worn without stopping.

"Secretary Han, Secretary Han, a soldier here has fainted!"

"Contact the health team quickly and transfer them to the ship!"

As soon as Han Yu put down the walkie-talkie, Master Qian came up to him and asked, "Xianyu, how many sick and wounded are there in our division?"

There are nearly [-] soldiers and civilians on the embankment and under the embankment. Commander Qian has the most soldiers, and he is fighting in four places at the same time. It is normal for him not to know how many wounded and sick he has under his command.

Han Yu didn't know the same thing. He only knew that Liang Xiaojun and Dongdong were busy all the time. He immediately raised the walkie-talkie and tuned to the frequency of logistics support, and asked, "Xiaojun Xiaojun, can you receive it? I'm Han Yu."

"Got it, what's the matter."

"How many people were injured?"

"There are more than 40 soldiers, including soldiers and militiamen. The 60th Division has the most wounded. Several of them are suffering from high fever. My side is too busy. I just asked the Yangtze River Public Security 110 to transfer them to the other side."

"Is there anyone on the other side to respond?"

"Yes, Secretary Wang and Staff Officer Dai are on the other side, and Shishou City People's Hospital has also contacted them. They will transfer the wounded and sick to the hospital as soon as they land."
