769: The Last Struggle (1)
On a hillside two kilometers southwest of Xiejiazhuang.
Li Xian looked at Li Pi, who couldn't pull it off when he hung on him, and wiped his snot and tears on his body, and felt very helpless.
"Okay, isn't this all out?
Li Pi buried his face in Li Xian's squeaky nest, and he didn't think it was too big, and he cried like a three-year-old bear child: "Second brother, it's so scary! You don't know, when I was in the water just now, I thought that I would never see you again in this life! Woo woo woo.......
You really need to be so coquettish!
Li Xian sighed and patted Li Pi's back.
Although Li You and the others were out of danger, they couldn't help but shed tears when they thought of the heavy experiences they had experienced this day.
Once the ghost door is closed, people are very vulnerable.
It was Boss Xie's daughter-in-law, although her face was also pale, but she was worried about her husband, and after breathing a sigh of relief, she pulled Li Xian to ask about Boss Xie and Xie Er's situation.
Although the convoy passed through the disaster area, it was generally safe. Knowing that Li Xian had been on the phone with Boss Xie before he came, Boss Xie's daughter-in-law calmed down, took the two packets of biscuits given by the helicopter pilot, and coaxed Li Lingling and Xie Yifan, the two frightened children, to go.
It was easy to calm down the fragile baby-like Li Pi, and Li Xian came to Niu Xingbang, who was standing on the hillside watching the helicopter hovering over Xiejiazhuang and helping the other trapped people.
"Chief, what are you going to do next?"
Niu Xingbang stuck his waist, looked at the flood flowing under his feet, and muttered: "The situation here in Liaocheng is more serious than I imagined, just now we received news that the collapse of the reservoir here has increased the flow of water downstream. A series of chain reactions have been caused, and now it seems that the reservoirs and hydropower stations in the lower reaches of the Tuxiao River will definitely not be able to withstand it. The province has just sent a message saying that it will release the flood. But this flood discharge ......."
Looking at the villagers who were dragged by the helicopter ramp to this side of the hillside, Niu Xingbang shook his head, "There are still more than a dozen openings in the Tuxiao River that have not been blocked, and I am afraid that this downstream will be over......"
As if realizing that it was not appropriate for such negative words to come out of his mouth, Niu Xingbang shook his head and patted Li Xian's shoulder: "Okay, your family has been rescued now." After this helicopter picked up the last group of trapped people, I went to Liaocheng. The high terrain shouldn't be much of a problem. I'll get to the place in a moment, and then I'll have the rubber boat come and pick you up. ”
"I'll go with you. ”
Just as Niu Xingbang put on the raincoat on his body and strode towards the helicopter that had returned, Li Xian let go of Li Pi in his arms and followed.
It's not that he doesn't care about his family, but when he came, more than 100 cars from the New Taipei Group had already driven to Liaocheng to participate in the rescue.
The responsibility lies, and he can't help but go.
……
The situation in Liaocheng has indeed been taken to the extreme.
The collapse of a large reservoir in the upper reaches of the Tuxiao River has put considerable pressure on the already battered embankments along the river.
Previously, the river on the outskirts of Liaocheng City had already burst its banks. Now, due to the collapse of the upstream reservoir, several dikes where cracks were found have also collapsed.
When Li Xian and Niu Xingbang rushed to the front-line embankment in Liaocheng, they saw that the embankment, which was several kilometers long, was already full of holes like dead and rotten caterpillars.
However, on both sides of the embankment, the soldiers and civilians who came to help the disaster still did not give up, and they were still carrying sandbags to the embankment in the water that had reached their waists.
The helicopter landed on what should have been a square before.
As soon as Li Xian jumped off the plane, he saw a reporter-like girl who was broadcasting live to the camera against the strong winds blowing from the high ground and the thunderstorms that flashed around her from time to time.
"From 19 o'clock last night to 11 o'clock this morning, our province experienced a thunderstorm! According to the data provided by the Meteorological Bureau, more than 40,000 lightning bolts were found on the ground during this period, and Jinan and Liaocheng were the center of the thunderstorms. From 0:00 to 3:00 in the morning. The most powerful lightning occurred at 2:40 a.m. in the northern part of Liaocheng, which is the north side of the direction I am in now. According to statistics, the lightning intensity reached 122.84 thousand amperes, and the technical staff of the provincial lightning protection technology center told me that this kind of lightning intensity is rare, and it is the extreme value of the lightning intensity detected this year, and the normal average lightning intensity value is only 10-30 thousand amperes!
However, the more dangerous situation than thunderstorms is the heavy precipitation. So far, several monitoring stations in the Liaocheng area have detected the largest amount of precipitation of 265 mm, and now we can see that the dam behind me has burst multiple times......"
Hearing the reporter's loud announcement, Niu Xingbang's face became gloomy.
The situation is not optimistic, and it is clear that the pressure on the head of this military region is not small.
Standing on the high ground, Li Xian looked at the other side of the embankment and saw that there were already vehicles of New Taipei Logistics in several vehicles that were transporting materials to the embankment against the flood water half a meter deep.
In the more than four hours that had been spent rescuing Li You and others just now, the convoy that had been transferred from Jinan seemed to have been in place.
He immediately said hello to Niu Xingbang and ran down.
Boss Xie looked at the torrent that kept gushing out of the dam burst, and his heart was not calm.
He didn't know that Li Xian had gone to Xiejiazhuang, and he couldn't help but worry about his family when he saw that the usually calm and quiet Tuxiao River had turned into an evil dragon that devoured everything.
Xie Jiazhuang is already in a low-lying area, and the family doesn't know what ....... is going on.
Just as he was thinking, suddenly the car shook.
With a muffled sound of eating, the car suddenly turned off.
The comrade-in-arms in the driver's seat hurriedly turned the key to light the lighter, but after a few stabs to start the motor, the car did not respond.
The driver slapped the steering wheel fiercely: "Donkey day!
"What's going on, it's in the water?" Boss Xie came back to his senses and asked.
"Eighty percent of the time, the damn water is no longer than the bumper, and the engine compartment must be soaked. Damn, it's a shitty place here, and the car is wasted. Old Xie, what's the matter?"
"Get out of the car! No matter what, we can't get stuck in traffic jams. Boss Xie gritted his teeth, put on a raincoat and opened the car door.
As soon as he jumped out of the car, he saw Li Xian who came over in the big water.
"Second brother!? Why are you here!"
Seeing Li Xian appear here, Boss Xie was not surprised.
When is it time to care about this?
Seeing that the water level was rising at a speed that was already visible to the naked eye, Li Xian said urgently.
