At 12:58, all officers and soldiers of the water search and rescue company set out on the journey again with equipment and supplies.

Han Yu returned to the command and control room on the second floor of the pontoon, turned on the high-frequency radio, and shouted: "Mr. Zou, Wu Chu, I, Han Yu, please answer when you receive it!"

"Copy that, Secretary Han, please speak."

"Ok, ok, what's the matter?"

"Although the fourth flood peak is expected to arrive in Sarawak City in the early morning of the 8th, according to the pattern of the previous flood peaks, it is certain that the water level in Jingjiang River will start to rise from now on, and the next 24 hours will be the most difficult 24 hours!"

Han Yu overlooked the dark river surface and continued: "In order to deal with the major dangers that may occur next, we must conserve our physical strength and energy. Please immediately ask the earthwork construction team, earthwork transportation team and corresponding auxiliary personnel to stop construction and organize

Machinery equipment and earth moving vehicles are shipped!”

Zou Xiangyu asked: "Then what."

"Let the construction workers on the shore take 001, Yangtze River Public Security 110 and supervision 88 to come back to eat, bathe and rest. Wu Chu, please work hard to organize the engineering fleet and transport fleet overnight, and sail to the 'base' waters to anchor

.”

"yes!"

Han Yu felt uneasy after thinking about it and emphasized: "The current is very fast and the wind and waves are strong. Pay attention to safety when marshalling, and even more when anchoring. The tugboats and stern boats of the fleet throw double anchors, as do the ferries and self-propelled ships of the transportation team.

In this way. When anchoring, the anchor chain should be loose enough, and the chain length should be six to eight times the water depth.

After the fleet is anchored, keep enough crew on duty and check the anchoring situation every ten minutes. At the same time, pay attention to the dynamics of the surrounding ships through radar observation, and report any situation to Director Yu in a timely manner so that Director Yu can organize rescue. Then the engine crew will not rest for the time being.

, in order to cope with possible emergencies, Linggang Tow 001, Lingdadu 13 and Binjiang Public Security 001 must have vehicles on standby!"

"clear!"

…

The emergency construction team was assembled and on standby, and the earthwork filling team continued filling.

As for what the several logistics support teams should do next, it will be arranged separately by Comrade Lao Wang, the senior expert in charge of logistics support, Mr. Qian, the "boss officer", and Zhao Jiang, the duty officer.

Seeing that Han Yu kept giving orders and Lao Wang and others were busy, Vice Mayor Qin and Deputy Commander Tao subconsciously looked at Vice Mayor Shen.

Vice Mayor Shen scratched his neck and said with a bit of embarrassment: "A layman cannot command an expert. As the first secretary, I cannot give blind orders, let alone cause trouble for them, so I can only stand aside."

It's like a mountain apart, they are really professional.

For example, I didn’t understand the request just now for the engineering fleet to anchor, and I didn’t know how to direct it.

Deputy Commander Tao suddenly felt that coming to express condolences this time was like adding trouble to the salted fish, so he simply put away his notebook and walked out of the command and dispatch room.

Mr. Qian realized that he was neglecting his leader and quickly followed him out.

"Three leaders, the guest rooms are on the first floor. We have already packed them and sent our luggage in. I will take the three leaders down to have a look."

"There's no need to go to such trouble, it won't affect your work."

"I'm done. The three leaders are leaving this way."

Mr. Qian looked back behind him and smiled as he walked: "Secretary Han will finish his work soon. I will ask the cooking team to bring the supper over. After Secretary Han finishes his work, he will come down and have supper with the three leaders."

Deputy Teacher Tao asked in a low voice: "Is there any late night snack?"

"Our commando team usually works in two shifts, changing shifts every six hours. People take breaks and the machines are constantly working, so there is a midnight snack every night. In the past few days, Secretary Han had to both command and find time to excavate the machine. He has been

I didn’t get enough rest. I managed to sleep for a long time today, and I haven’t had dinner yet.”

"Deputy Commander Tao, Mr. Qian is the CEO of our Binjiang Huayang New Materials Co., Ltd., and he is also a veteran."

"Mr. Qian, which year are you a soldier?"

"I joined the army in 1975. I was unlucky. A few days after returning from the army, the old army went to the front line. If I had thought of a way to stay in the army and serve beyond the term, I would have been able to catch up with the self-defense counterattack against Vietnam."

Deputy Commander Tao asked with great interest: "Are you among the first batch of old troops to participate in the war?"

Mr. Qian opened the cabin door and said: "I used to be an artilleryman of the 301st Division Artillery Regiment of the 101st Army. Many of my old leaders and old comrades-in-arms have gone to the battlefield, and several old comrades-in-arms have died. I didn't have the conditions before and wanted to return to the old army.

Look, the road is too far to get there. Later, when conditions were met, the old army was laid off due to disarmament, and now we only have contact with a few comrades."

The 101st Army has a rough fate.

After it was officially opened in March 1949, it has been dismantled, rebuilt and dismantled many times.

Thinking of the "legitimacy status" that Xianyuying was competing with others, Deputy Commander Tao patted Mr. Qian's arm and said with emotion: "Your old troops fought well on the Western Front. In 1984, they regained the Yinshan Mountains in one go.

At the cost of annihilating 568 enemies, the 'Zhe Yinshan Hero Company' belongs to your old army."

"I know, I heard what my comrades said."

"Have any of your comrades changed careers and been discharged from the army?"

"I changed my job a long time ago. I changed my job during the disarmament."

"The 101st Army has been withdrawn, the 302nd Division and the 303rd Division have also been withdrawn. The 301st Division has not been withdrawn. If I remember correctly, it should be affiliated with the 104th Army. I happen to have a comrade in the Chengdu Military Region. I will help you ask where the 301st Division is stationed later.

Where is it? Who is the current division commander and political commissar? Then you can go back to the old army and have a look."

"Thank you, chief."

…

When a soldier meets a soldier, he will definitely be able to find a common language.

Vice Mayor Qin couldn't get a word in, so he simply looked around at the accommodation conditions tonight.

Double room with two wooden beds, a mosquito net on the bed, a desk, a chair, a washstand in the corner, two boiling water bottles under the washstand, and a wall-mounted air conditioner on the wall.

Vice Mayor Shen's room is next door. He will share a room with Comrade Lao Wang tonight. The conditions are not as good as here because there are two bunk beds in a four-person room.

It's definitely not comparable to hotels, but the conditions on the front line of flood fighting and rescue operations couldn't be better.

Vice Mayor Qin asked curiously: "Mr. Qian, where will Xianyu stay at night?"

Just as Mr. Qian was about to speak, Han Yu walked in and said, "I will stay in the weather support room at night, sharing a room with my dad."

"Busy working?"

"You're done, three leaders, let's eat. The food is in the duty room next door."

Deputy Mayor Qin happened to be a little hungry, so he immediately called Deputy Director Tao and together they went to the former duty room of the Hong Kong Supervisory Authority.

The late night snack was pretty good, four dishes and one soup.

Considering that the weather is relatively hot, Mr. Qian specially asked the cooking team to bring a bunch of cold beer.

Deputy Commander Tao was not polite. He opened a bottle and drank half of it. He put down the bottle and picked up Kuaizi and asked: "Xianyu, An Gong's Mengxi embankment collapsed. You just said it might flood to the point where you guys rushed to protect it before."

Near Yangliu Village, judging from your previous reporting materials, that area belongs to the Jingjiang flood diversion area. Now that it has breached and flooded, isn't it equivalent to flood diversion?"

"There is still a difference, and the difference is huge."

"What's the difference?"

"Mengxi embankment is a large embankment composed of several embankments. It runs north-south, large in the south and small in the north. The breached embankment section is in the south. An Gong fought on three fronts some time ago to fight against the floods in Jingnan and ensure the Nanping embankment.

, not far from the breached embankment section.”

Han Yu doesn't like to drink beer or tea water, he only drinks boiled water.

He was afraid that Deputy Teacher Tao wouldn't understand, so he simply dipped his finger in some water and drew a map on his desk: "It's tens of kilometers apart from south to north, and there is a dike between Xiaomin'an and Xiaomin'an.

So even if it floods to Yangliu Village, it will take two or three hours.

In these few hours, Angong County will definitely organize forces to seize the embankment and try to control the damage to the minimum range.

Furthermore, it was not the main embankment of the Yangtze River that burst, but the Hudu River leading from the Yangtze River to Dongting Lake. The Hudu River has long since become a land river due to sedimentation. Many sections of the river dry up in the dry season and no water can be seen, which means that the water level is very high.

, the amount of water is not large.”

Vice Mayor Qin asked: "So although it is defeated, it is not very dangerous?"

"It is still very dangerous, because the Tiger Ferry not only connects the Yangtze River on the Angong side, but also connects to the Songzi River. The upper reaches of the Songzi River is Songzikou, which also connects to the Yangtze River. The collapse of Mengxi embankment is a huge blow to Angong.

The losses will be huge and will also pose a threat to Xiang'an County in Nanhu Province, because further south is the Dongting Lake area."

Han Yu thought of the question first raised by Deputy Master Tao, and then said: "The total area of ​​Mengxi embankment is more than 300 square kilometers, and the entire Jingjiang flood diversion area is about 1,440 square kilometers, with an effective volume of 5.4 billion cubic meters. 54 billion cubic meters.

The concept may be rather abstract, but according to XCMG, if it is really put into use, it can accommodate 385 West Lakes."

Deputy Commander Tao pondered: "You said that even if Mengxi Yuan is flooded, the flooded water level is not as high as the flood diversion?"

"Although I say that, it doesn't make much difference to the hundreds of thousands of people in the camp."

"Here we need to organize the evacuation of more than 300,000 people, and over there a large civilian complex is flooded. It is not easy for the party and government leaders here!"

"Several surrounding counties have already emptied their finances to fight floods. Ge Bureau said that Angong County alone owes banks tens of millions in loans."

"Xianyu, Meng Xi'an collapsed. I don't think you're very nervous."

"What's the use of me being nervous? Besides, this isn't the first time the Min'an has collapsed."

Han Yu finished the food in his mouth and sighed: "If you compare it vertically, although this year's flood was larger than previous years, the losses were much lower than in 1996. It is said that in the flood in 1996, 145 embankments burst in the Dongting Lake area alone.

Among them, 26 embankments were over 10,000 acres, affected 1.138 million people, 177 drowned, and caused direct economic losses of more than 50 billion.

Judging from the latest report from the Yangtze River Prevention and Control Bureau, as of 4 p.m. yesterday, a total of 87 embankments had breached in the Dongting Lake area, but only 7 embankments with an area of ​​more than 10,000 acres had collapsed. The number of victims has so far reached 170,000, and the death toll has been less than 100.

, the direct economic loss was more than 20 billion, much better than two years ago."
