The roads in Beichong were well constructed, but the branches were too big. Chen Taizhong dragged the branches for seven or eight meters before dragging them upright to the roadside. During this period, he really never looked back.
.
Then the three of them got in the car, and everyone was almost completely wet. The rain was really heavy and there was also wind.
After taking a taxi, Secretary Chen explained calmly, "In this weather, the visibility is too poor, so we can't leave the tree branch there. Now that we see it, we have to move it away."
"Yes, otherwise it would be easy to get into a car accident," Chang Yuling nodded and replied. She was also wet, but the air in Beichong was pretty good, the ground wasn't too dirty, and her clothes were relatively clean.
"We were almost struck by lightning. We don't know what the area is like anymore," Chen Taizhong stepped on the accelerator and sped up. "This weather, it feels like it's going to be bad."
There is extreme weather today. Secretary Chen received the news two days ago and confirmed it early yesterday morning. He also activated the early warning mechanism and notified all towns and villages. The announcement was repeated over and over again on TV last night.
Unfortunately, Chen Taizhong had to go to Chaotian. He didn't even wait for lunch to start before he resolutely returned to Beichong in order to be in charge at the critical moment.
When he came to the district government, he learned about it and found out that the government's deployment was quite thorough. All departments and agencies were fully prepared, and the defense personnel were gathered together, ready to dispatch rescues at any time.
He expressed satisfaction with such preparations, then turned around and rushed to the district party committee. He had made relatively few arrests at the party committee and the contact time was short, so this should be the focus of attention.
It must be pointed out that there is another person in the party committee who is more effective. Secretary Xu, who is in charge of the party and the masses, is the number two person in Beichong.
Xu Ruilin has a deep understanding of extreme weather response. Although Secretary Chen is not here, he also called on everyone to actively prepare. Even more than 30 students studying at the District Party School have received a notice - if necessary, you will
To be able to pull it out.
Minister Hong of the Ministry of Armed Forces also said: The mobilization work of the militia has been completed.
The Beichong militiamen were not afraid of mobilization, but they were afraid of not paying enough attention and not having the money to pay attention to it. Before Chen Taizhong came, they had no training for three consecutive years. After that, they had training for one year, and before that, there was no training for two years.
After District Chief Chen came, with financial support, Secretary Sui organized an off-the-job training, Secretary Chen also organized one, and even at last year's Ramie Cultural Festival, militiamen went up to maintain order.
To put it bluntly, it can be said in one word: as long as money is available, the enthusiasm of the militiamen can be easily mobilized.
Minister Hong has no money, but as long as Secretary Chen agrees to give it, organizing a militia will not be a problem.
The district committee and district government have gathered their forces and are ready, gearing up to attack.
Starting at 4:30, losses in various towns and villages were reported one after another. Due to adequate preparations, Beichong's losses in this extreme weather were not very large.
It was relatively miserable in Qudao Township. The thunder there was a little too strong. One house was knocked down, and countless electrical appliances were destroyed. One person died and another was seriously injured. The seriously injured one was pinned by the house, and the one who died was under a tree.
She was beaten to death while hiding from the rain.
There are also big losses in Chencun Town and Xiaozhao Township. The strong wind before the rain this time damaged many mobile greenhouses. Extreme weather has always been the trump card of greenhouses. No matter how careful you are, you can't do anything about the random wind.
In the end, it was okay. Most of the greenhouses just had their membranes blown out.
But the saddest thing is that of a farmer in Xiaojia Village, Sanlun Town. He rented a mobile greenhouse to raise chickens on the farmland. Not only the greenhouse was damaged, but a thunderstorm directly blew down and traveled along the steel keel of the greenhouse.
, more than two hundred chickens died - some were chopped to death, and some were simply frightened to death.
These are all direct losses, and indirect losses cannot be calculated at present. The violent storm is about to pass, and it is time for people from the district committee and district government to be dispatched - places with heavy rainfall must prevent the outbreak of flash floods and mudslides.
Danger still occurred. In Shanjin Town, Linhuanbaogan, two small mudslides occurred.
In Zhuoshui Township, where Chang Yuling was responsible, the water level of the creek surged, and trees and other garbage washed down from the upper reaches blocked an arch bridge.
Seeing the water rising rapidly and the bridge in danger, District Chief Chang arrived in time and decided to clean up the garbage on the spot.
District Chief Chang did not act like a female cadre at all when it came to taking action on the spot. She even rolled up her arms and sleeves to do it herself. How could Township Chief Zhao Yinhe and Secretary Jiang Shuangliang agree? After grabbing her, they rushed to the cadres on the scene.
With a wink - are all the men in Zhuoshui dead?
After fighting hard until seven o'clock, the danger here was eliminated. District Chief Chang had some food in the countryside and went straight to the breeding center. Today's thunder and lightning even frightened the giant salamander.
Chen Taizhong is in charge of Xiwangzhuang Township, which has large-scale quarrying and many hidden dangers. However, he has rectified it in the past two years, and the township head Lu Wang also cleaned up the river. This heavy rain did not cause any damage.
What a big problem.
At close to seven o'clock, Secretary Chen was about to go to dinner when he received a call from Han Shihua from Baogan Xiaoling Township. Director Han reported that a landslide also occurred here in Xiaoling Township, which was relatively large in scale, but fortunately it was not in a densely populated area.
However, a mudslide crooked an iron tower, and the iron tower where the high-voltage wires were hung was pulled straight in this summer. By the time winter comes, the cables would definitely be torn off: Do we need to notify the Electric Power Bureau?
What threads are hung on it? Chen Taizhong is concerned about this.
There are many lines, but there are no lines within Beichong District. Han Shihua also understood the situation: there is at most one line, which may be the power supply line from Yangzhou to Beichong.
Then why did you notify the Electricity Bureau? Secretary Chen gave very direct instructions: There will be extreme weather in these two days. People must be evacuated in that area. If something happens, I will only ask you.
At noon the next day, extreme weather came again. This time, the intensity was smaller than yesterday, and the time was much shorter. It took almost three hours. The heavy rain turned to cloudy. According to the forecast of the Meteorological Bureau, starting tonight
, it was another continuous drizzle that lasted for at least a week.
Before the rain stopped, Han Shihua called and said that the iron tower had collapsed. At that time, there were fireballs flying all over the sky, and electric arcs danced wildly on the ground like golden snakes. Someone next to the land was contracted to plant trees in the barren hills. No,
Several young saplings were burned like charcoal.
Let's reduce the contracting fee appropriately, Secretary Chen gave the instruction. In fact, the collapse of the iron tower was entirely his own doing - this thing is a hidden danger and must be removed as soon as possible.
If we really have to wait for the Electric Power Bureau to go through the procedures and get approval, then we don’t know whether it will happen in the Year of the Monkey or the Horse. Who is to blame if danger occurs during this period? It doesn’t matter whether it’s money or not, this is about human life.
Later in the afternoon, when everyone was learning about the disaster and calculating the losses, Han Shihua called again and said that people from the Municipal Electric Power Bureau were here to survey the accident site.
Together with this iron tower, it carries a 500-kilovolt transmission line from the north to Hengbei. Once the big line here is interrupted, countless places will complain. The sharp reduction in power in Yangzhou City has caused turmoil and paralysis of half of the city's power grid.
.
In this case, the fault point was quickly found. People from the Electric Power Bureau came over to take a look. Apart from other things, they only looked at the mud, water and stones all over the mountains and fields, and knew that it was normal for this kind of thing to happen.
Don’t say anything else, let’s rush to repair it. Considering that if the tower is built on the original site, it may be hit by mudslides again, and the construction will be done on the same site... These are all things washed away by the mudslides, and there is no way to do it.
Therefore, this iron tower faces the problem of relocation, and the place to be moved is the contracted site for afforestation on barren hills.
The contractor was very happy. Let's talk about compensation first. You damaged a lot of my saplings with the arc. You want to build a tower at my place? That's easy to say. Just pay me.
This lion opened his mouth and planned to ask for 20,000. The people from the Electricity Bureau said, "What do you want?" If I can give you 2,000, you should just laugh and keep messing around. Believe it or not, we will file a complaint with Secretary Chen?
Secretary Chen, this person is a little scared when he hears it. Everyone in Beichong knows that Chen Taizhong is very protective of his shortcomings, but his family is unreasonable. If someone from Beichong is thrown away, Secretary Chen will not take it lightly - in fact, he is a village elder.
The feeling of governing.
Beichong people are not afraid of being bullied by outsiders, because Secretary Chen will take care of it, but if they bully outsiders too much, they will be in trouble.
So he called a relative in the village to discuss it. When the relative heard about it, he said that Secretary Chen was currently fighting with the Electric Power Bureau. Forget it, don't mess around. I'll ask the leader for instructions - just in case.
If you did something inappropriate, I will still be implicated.
So Han Shihua knew about this and immediately called to report.
"Whether it's rebuilding or relocating, a report must be submitted first, and the district must approve it before construction can begin," Chen Taizhong snorted lightly, "Tell Huangfu Yichen that he has to control this."
Secretary Chen was so disgusted by the Electricity Bureau a while ago, and now he finally has the chance to get back on his feet, how could he not use it?
Anyway, it is a big line that is broken, and it has nothing to do with Beichong. It is best if it is broken and cannot be repaired for a year.
When Secretary Huangfu heard that Secretary Chen meant this, he immediately understood that although he did not have helpers on hand, as the local bully of Xiaoling Township, there was no problem in getting together a hundred and ten people, so he sent someone
People surrounding the Electricity Bureau - stop surveying and report to the district first.
Is there any mistake? We are doing emergency repairs. People from the Electric Power Bureau said they can't stand it. This is either a new line or just a different point. The village has the final say. Why should the district use it?
Then you have the ability to do something, the Beichong man replied with a sneer.
People from the Electricity Bureau really don’t dare to move. There is construction work in the area, and some greetings must be given, otherwise it will be too much trouble. The normal procedure is to deal with the district, press down on the district, and get some benefits from the bottom. This
The matter is done.
But Beichong District... this situation is difficult to pass. Beichong is now very dissatisfied with the city bureau and has even shut down the Internet. (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novel will be better and updated faster!)
