With a loud bang, a cloud of smoke rose above the Hongqiao Bridge. The bridge instantly sank into the water, leaving only the remaining steel frames pointing to the sky alone.

The huge wave of air forced people to take a few steps back involuntarily.

Xu Yishan looked at the empty river in front of him, and a feeling of unspeakable feeling surged in his heart.

The flood that collapsed the dam entered the Hongshan Town area in a blink of an eye, and wherever it went, it swept through.

The roaring flood washed up on both sides of the river embankment, lifting up two trees on the bank, and the soil on both sides of the river embankment continued to collapse, loud noises continued.

The flood was wrapped in debris and roared past in front of him. Soon, the river came over the shore.

Xu Yishan roared, "Old Sun, build a river embankment to ensure that the water does not enter the town."

Lao Sun's eyes were red, and he led a group of militiamen and soon built a row of sandbags on the river bank.

The flood came and went quickly. Two hours later, the river gradually calmed down.

This thrilling flood, the stormy waves that were brought up, soon lost the wildness. The Honghe returned to its past peace.

After the flood, it was like a tornado that was swept away, and the land was full of devastation. Wherever the flood went, the earth was torn apart, revealing the shocking black soil.

Lao Sun looked at the scene in front of him with lingering fear and sighed: "Fortunately, the explosion was in time. Otherwise, if this flood rushed into the town, Hongshan Town would be destroyed."

Xu Yishan sighed softly and said, "Old Sun, remember, no matter who asks, you must insist on one statement. The bridge was blown up by me, Xu Yishan."

Lao Sun looked at him in surprise, "Hey, Mayor Xu, are you snatching me for credit? It's obviously the detonator I pressed, how could it be you who exploded?"

"Yes, it was just me who exploded." Xu Yishan Baman said: "Old Sun, this credit should be my."

Lao Sun didn't say anything and turned around and walked into the town.

The flood receded, and everyone was like a disaster, and they had not come back to their senses yet.

Everyone was talking about it. If the rainbow bridge was not blown up and the flood was blocked, it would inevitably enter the town. If the flood washed away the flood control embankment, the huge force would destroy Hongshan Town into powder.

Only by witnessing the power of floods with one's own eyes can we realize the power of nature.

Many people watched the Hongqiao being blown up and the flood whizzed past under their feet. The fear from the bones made people tremble involuntarily when they recalled.

Once the Hongqiao Bridge was broken, there was a river between the east and west banks, and there was no possibility of coming and going.

What Xu Yishan thinks most now is to quickly restore the ties between the two sides of the Taiwan Strait. If the bridge is gone, there must be a ship.

Honghe is usually not open to navigation. After all, the river channel is too shallow, and boats with slightly deeper drafts are easily stranded.

In the past, the most common ones in the river were small sampans. Small sampans were owned by the few people by the river who specialize in fishing. Due to the implementation of environmental protection in recent years, fishing in the Honghe River was banned, and the small sampans in the river were basically all on the shore.

In the past, before the Hongqiao was built, a diesel-powered ferry connecting the two sides of the straits was a diesel-powered ferry.

Nowadays, the ferry has long disappeared, and the people who drove the boat have been buried for many years.

As the saying goes, cross a thousand miles across the river. Don’t underestimate a small Hong River. If you lack a tool to cross the river, the two sides will be as close as the end of the world.

The west bank of the Honghe River is the location of Hongshan Town. During this flood prevention and control, the west bank is the key protection target.

Lao Sun's militia team made indelible contributions in this flood control. A gravel dam they built on the flood control embankment completely protected the safety of Hongshan Town.

On the east side of the river, the Golden Community was soaked above the third floor by floods on the shore.

Duan Yanhua and a group of town cadres officially began to inspect Hongshan Town after the disaster.

In the afternoon, all cadres of Hongshan Town held a meeting. At the meeting, Duan Yanhua announced that Minister Sun Wu of the Armed Forces Department had arbitrarily installed explosives and exploded the bridge, and his behavior constituted a serious violation of discipline. According to relevant regulations, the town decided to adopt organizational discipline against him. A decision was made after the relevant issues were investigated clearly.

Duan Yanhua glanced at his panicked subordinates and said loudly: "If Comrade Sun Wu's behavior constitutes a crime, it will be transferred to the prosecution agency."

Xu Yishan felt terrified when he heard this. He stood up and corrected: "Secretary Duan, you may not have figured out something."

Duan Yanhua looked at him unhappily, waved his hand and said, "What do you have to say later."

Xu Yishan shook his head and said, "No, I must make it clear now. First of all, I arranged the bombing of Hongqiao. I asked Director Meng for explosives, right?" He looked at Meng Liang, as if waiting for Meng Liang's response.

Meng Liang lowered his head, pretending not to hear anything, and said nothing.

"Second, I personally pressed the detonator for the blasting bridge. In other words, I decided to blow up the Hongqiao from beginning to end, and it had nothing to do with Comrade Sun Wu."

"Is that?" Duan Yanhua said with a smile: "Mayor Xu, this is not the time to act as a hero. I might as well tell you that Comrade Sun Wu personally found me and reported that he was the one who exploded the bridge."

"He is talking nonsense." Xu Yishan shouted in anger: "Comrade Sun Wu is turning black and white. I reiterate again that the bridge was blown by me, Xu Yishan, and I personally bear the responsibility."

Xu Yishan and Lao Sun both knew in their hearts that although bombing the bridge was the best way to save Hongshan Town, Duan Yanhua would not let the person who bombed the bridge easily go.

Just like Duan Yanhua once proudly said that Hongqiao is his son. Now that you, Xu Yishan and Lao Sun, have strangled his son to death with your own hands, can he let you go?

Because both of them knew the seriousness behind this incident, both Xu Yishan and Lao Sun rushed to take the responsibility on themselves.

Xu Yishan also knew that there was a festival between Lao Sun and Duan Yanhua.

Lao Sun was unable to transfer from Hongshan Town as he wished because Duan Yanhua wanted to hold him tightly in his palm. Now, taking such a good opportunity, how could Duan Yanhua let him go?

Xu Yishan discussed with Lao Sun in advance and told Lao Sun to leave himself out of the matter at any time. After all, Duan Yanhua would not kill him compared to Xu Yishan.

Xu Yishan had already made mental preparations. If the superiors pursued the responsibility, he would take on the responsibility of bombing the bridge alone, and at most he would be able to remove his deputy mayor.

"Don't discuss this matter for the time being." Duan Yanhua concluded: "The organization will investigate clearly. Before the investigation results are released, Comrade Sun Wu must cooperate with the investigation team's investigation."

The implicit meaning of this sentence is that from now on, Sun Wu will lose his freedom.

Xu Yishan wanted to argue, but Mayor Liu Wen, who was on the other side, quietly pulled his clothes and signaled him not to speak out.

The meeting ended soon, and Duan Yanhua arranged work at the meeting, led by Mayor Liu Wen to fully understand the entire losses of the flood.

All departments under the town are responsible for the post-disaster recovery work of this business.

Only Xu Yishan has no arrangements for any work.

Xu Yishan asked Duan Yanhua on the spot in confusion, "Secretary, what am I doing?"

Duan Yanhua looked at him, smiled faintly and said, "You don't have to do anything now, rest."

Xu Yishan said anxiously: "Everyone is busy, I'm the only one resting?"

Duan Yanhua nodded and said, "What you deserve to do will come sooner or later."
