Ordinarily, the end of May is not the rainy season in Dongjiang Province, but this year’s rainy season happened earlier than in previous years. Starting from the evening of May 28, the light rain began to fall, and the farmers who had just planted the seeds were extremely happy.
This rain was especially timely for them. However, the rain did not stop. From the light rain at the beginning to the heavy rain, it lasted for a whole week.
At first, the leaders of the town didn't care, and even celebrated with the people. But as time went on, they became more and more frightened. The heavy rain washed away all the seedlings in the field, and the county called one after another to warn of heavy rain, asking them to do their best.
It is necessary to monitor the disaster situation, especially conduct a comprehensive inspection of dilapidated houses, and do everything possible to protect the safety of people's lives and property. Ma Guotao couldn't help but take a breath. He seemed to have seen the flood disaster in the south last year, and at this moment, heavy rains were threatening
Zhushihe Town.
Ma Guotao made a prompt decision, suspended all work, and went all out to resist this once-in-a-century natural disaster. All foreign investment promotion teams returned to the villages and conducted a large-scale inspection of the villages and areas they had rented, and the residents living in dilapidated houses were
They must move safely. Just when people focused their attention on the village, something big happened at the Lion Head Mountain Mine.
Due to barbaric mining, companies at the Shitoushan Mine destroyed natural vegetation. Coupled with continuous rain, landslides resulted in a major accident that killed 2 people and injured 6 people. It seemed that the accident was caused by a natural disaster, but in fact it was like a gunpowder mine.
The barrel is about to explode. This is the fundamental reason why Zhao Yitang and Ma Guotao were in conflict when he was in office.
After Ma Guotao learned about the accident, he slumped down on the sofa on the spot. He knew what these things meant to him, and he didn't know what to do for a while. Fortunately, Yan Dongxu reminded him that the most important thing now was to report it quickly.
Organize manpower to carry out all-out rescue.
After receiving the call from Ma Guotao, the county magistrate Ding Qingxiang started yelling into the phone on the spot, but the incident had already happened and further scolding would not help. He made a prompt decision and quickly reported the matter to the county party secretary Wu Jiangkai. Wu Jiangkai heard this
After the news, he was shocked but slightly calm. Because he had pointed out the shortcomings of this kind of mining when he went to Shihe Town for investigation last year, but the county magistrate Ding Qingxiang, as the main leader, turned a deaf ear and ignored it and allowed it to develop. Now
Fortunately, such a big accident would not benefit anyone.
Wu Jiangkai asked the county magistrate Ding Qingxiang to be the team leader, and the mining rescue team, fire protection, land and safety supervision and other departments to quickly set up a special team, and the most important thing was to go all out to save people.
When Wu Jiangkai was considering whether to report to the municipal party committee and government, Mayor Li Changkui had already rushed to the scene of the incident.
If the last fire made Shihe Town "hot", then this accident really pushed Shihe Town to the forefront.
Without notifying the county committee and county government, Mayor Li Changkui rushed to the scene of the incident with the heads of the city's land and resources, safety supervision and other departments. What puzzled Wu Jiangkai was that just after he got the news,
In less than two hours, Li Changkui had already rushed to Shihe Town. It could be said that Li Changkui knew the news ahead of him, so who revealed the news? Before he had time to think about it, the mayor rushed to the scene of the incident. As the secretary of the county party committee, he also
Sitting in the office felt a little unreasonable, so he took the driver, increased his power, and sped towards Shihe Town.
At this time, the rain was getting heavier and heavier, and the vehicle could not see the front at all while driving at high speed. But Wu Jiangkai was so anxious that he kept urging the driver to go faster. One call after another came to Wu Jiangkai's mobile phone, and he was told again and again by reports. Feeling uneasy, I began to realize that the situation at the scene was getting more and more serious.
A landslide once again hit Shihe Town, cutting off the road leading to Lion's Head Mountain. This undoubtedly made the situation worse and increased the difficulty of rescue. All the cadres in Shihe Town gathered at the foot of Lion's Head Mountain, regardless of personal safety, using various tools The rescue channel was opened, but the landslide was so serious that manual work was ineffective. The anxious Ma Guotao looked at the scene in front of him, his hands and feet were cold, and his heart was like a huge stone pressing on his chest. He let the heavy rain beat on his face, hopeless. Stand there.
At this time, Shen Tong was trapped in Qiaobei Village. On the fourth day of the heavy rain, he felt that something was wrong with the rain. He made several suggestions to Ma Guotao to evacuate all the staff of the Lion Head Mountain Enterprise. But Ma Guotao disagreed and continued to drink wine and play mahjong. He even went to Zhaobei City during the rain. After the suggestion was fruitless, he took the initiative to request to be stationed in Qiaobei Village. He wanted to transfer the people there in time. Ma Guotao He originally had a good impression of Shen Tong because he had attracted companies, but he waited and waited and no investors came, which made him feel a little unhappy. He even thought that Liu Siming and Shen Tong were working together to trick him. Hearing that Shen Tong After his request, Ma Guotao immediately agreed to his request.
The place of collapse is located between Qiaobei Village and Nanwan Village. The two villages were once connected by a small road. Since the discovery of aluminum ore in Shitou Mountain, the contracting company has widened the small road. In order to save costs, the company did not widen the road after The mountains on both sides have not been reinforced. Every time the people of Qiaobei Village come here, they are frightened when they look at the crumbling rocks.
Ma Guotao is not unaware of the situation here. Li Maoshan, the head of Qiaobei Village, reported it several times, but every time he responded perfunctorily and delayed the solution. Of course, Ma Guotao also had his own ideas. The soil in this area is hard. Under normal circumstances, landslides will not occur. In addition, there is a deeper secret. In the name of road construction, Ma Guotao personally collected part of the fees from the companies on the mountain. It can be said that this road is his outsourcing project. If the two sides Reinforcement means taking money from his pocket. Think about what he will do?
The last time he went to the countryside, Shen Tong came to Qiaobei Village. Except for the house of the village chief Li Maoshan's family, the rest were built in the early days of the founding of the People's Republic of China. Therefore, Shen Tong was particularly worried about the people of Qiaobei Village. The day he moved into Qiaobei Village Since then, we have started going door to door to mobilize everyone to move out quickly.
The residents living in Qiaobei Village are all natives, and they know the natural conditions of Shihe Town very well. With their experience, natural disasters are unlikely to occur in Shihe Town. When they heard Shen Tong's suggestion, they actually sneered and laughed. He was a little furry child whose fur had not yet fully grown, and even the village chief Li Maoshan did not support his work. In desperation, Shen Tong first forcibly moved the residents of the worst houses in the village out of their houses, and temporarily squeezed them into Li Maoshan's house. live.
What she never expected was that Shen Tong's words would be verified two days later. The house that Shen Tong had forcibly moved out of collapsed instantly when heavy rain came. This scene shocked the whole village and they ran away. They left their houses and crowded into Li Maoshan's house to escape the disaster. Until later, Li Maoshan's house could no longer accommodate them, so some people put away their belongings and ran to Nanwan Village down the mountain.
