Chapter 132: Can't Let Go!

The mountain and forest city is also mountainous and watery.

About 20 miles upstream of Shanlin City, a deserted land, where mountains rise one after another, the Yangtze River has turned a bend.

The river is narrow, the banks are densely forested, and the roads are impassable.

In early August, after more than a month of heavy precipitation, the mountain finally collapsed, and the rolling mountain blocked the river and formed a dammed lake.

In just a few days, a large number of water bodies have gathered, and according to the estimation of water conservancy experts, the storage capacity has exceeded 200 million cubic meters, and the situation is quite critical!

Subsequently, all the people of the villages along the coast were evacuated, and the downstream mountain and forest cities were also on alert at any time, and a large number of water conservancy experts and soldiers began to gather here.

There are no roads, excavators can't get in, and the earth and rocks blocking the river are loose, so blasting is not possible for fear of causing dam failure and further rock collapse.

In order to open the channel and reduce the amount of water stored, manual excavation had to be used.

In order to save time, a large number of soldiers have been fighting here for many days with shovels and dry food.

At the risk of the rocks collapsing again, they relied on manpower to dig two nullahs on both sides of the collapsed earth and rocks.

In the following days, after the diversion of the open channel, the water storage of the dammed lake began to decline, and the blocked mountain was also washed away by the flood!

Seeing that the crisis was gradually resolved, everyone breathed a sigh of relief!

But at this moment!

The mountain is collapsing again!

At the original location, the rocks and trees were piled up again!

Although it is not as large as the first time, this time it is still not to be underestimated!

The helicopter roared overnight to send the energetic fighters to dig the nullah again to divert the flow and decompress!

There is a flood in front and a mountain in the back, and everyone is on the lookout!

But what can be done?

"Dig, dig for me, if something happens, the downstream will be over!"

At ten o'clock in the morning of the next day, the new nullah was finally opened, but after more than ten hours, the original water storage capacity climbed to more than 100 million cubic meters!

What's even more terrifying is that the lower part of the newly collapsed mountain is even looser than before!

Just when the nullah was dug up, the turbulent water directly washed away the barrage rocks!

Caught off guard, a raging flood burst out of the dammed lake!

Like a raging tiger, go straight downstream!

"Contact the downstream vigilance! Prevent residents along the river from secretly returning home when the water is weakening!"

Residents along the river have long been evacuated, but it is common for the upper authorities to not comply with the policy, and it is common for them to not be able to leave their homes and want to go back to see the situation.

Fools can mess around, but they cannot let them die.

"Order the Shanlin City Flood Control and Flood Control Working Group! Activate helicopters to strictly investigate the situation along the coast! So that they can search and rescue in a timely manner!"

At this time of national calamity, the special combat team of the Eastern Military Region has also joined the ranks of flood fighting and emergency rescue, because these special forces are all-rounders, who can fly helicopters, and carry out tasks in teams of two, with one person piloting and one person responsible for search and rescue.

Xiao Yan, like his comrades-in-arms, had heavy dark circles under his eyes.

Fighting on the front line of flood fighting, they have seen too many people who have unfortunately lost their lives recently.

Disasters are merciless, and for these young soldiers, many people feel uncomfortable facing such a tragic scene.

On the temporary and simple tarmac, Xiao Yan put on his hat and climbed onto the co-pilot with a cold face.

Now that the situation is urgent, helicopters are limited in each area, and they have to participate in search and rescue efforts.

It is not easy to carry out search and rescue work for a long time, in order to ensure that there are no accidents, the two of them take turns to drive, yesterday he drove it, and today it should be his partner's turn.

These regulations are all reasonable, and Xiao Yan will never be reckless.

In the morning, they brought in supplies, and then a new round of search and rescue work will begin.

The army green helicopter rumbled downstream......

The upstream dammed lake has been blocked for more than 20 days, and the news in the city has broadcast relevant progress every day.

It's so blocked that before the dam bursts, the flow of water will weaken next week, giving everyone the illusion that the flood has passed and everything is coming to an end.

Li Fengxia didn't know about the accident upstream, and at this time, she was holding a little boy in red clothes to swim to the shore.

Before, she let go of the black tiger's leash, and the black tiger also jumped into the water with her, and was beside her at this time, trying to arch her to the shore.

Seeing that the flood control sandbags that were about to be picked up at the water's edge, Li Fengxia breathed a sigh of relief.

Sure enough, the water was not as urgent as she imagined, and she could still cope with it.

The child's heart was still hot, and it was not long before he thought of falling into the water, at this time he was trembling all over, unconsciously shouting "grandma" in his mouth, and his two little hands were holding Li Fengxia's little arm in front of his chest, not daring to let go.

"Don't be afraid! Don't be afraid! Wait for grandma to catch her breath before pushing you up!"

Li Fengxia thought he was shouting to himself and kept comforting him.

At this time, she drilled one hand through the child's armpit, hugged him from behind, and grabbed the flood control bag with the other hand to gasp.

After all, I'm old! I have to rest for a while to get this little distance.

"Hong'er!ah!!!Hong'er!!"

Just as she picked up the child and was about to push him ashore, a middle-aged woman with a disheveled hair ran from upstream, calling for the child in a hoarse voice.

Li Fengxia turned her head to look, only to see that the person who came was full of panic, and one of the shoes ran away.

At noon at the end of August, the cement road in Shanlin City was scorched hot, but the man seemed to be unconscious, with only children in his eyes.

"Grandma!!Grandma!!"

Xiao'er was probably frightened, his voice was sharp, his legs kicked Li Fengxia's ribs hard, and he wanted to climb to the shore with his hands crossed!

It's just that the flood bag is a bit too high for him to reach.

"Pull it!"

The child was frightened, he only knew how to survive, and it was normal to see his family react violently, Li Fengxia smiled and pushed the child's buttocks up, and didn't mind him kicking herself.

At this moment, there was a loud rumbling sound from the upstream!

Li Fengxia, who was still in the water, only felt that the water surface upstream suddenly rose! With the momentum of overwhelming mountains and seas, she was pressed against her!

At the critical moment, holding a child, she couldn't climb ashore.

"Catch the kid!!"

Li Fengxia shouted at the woman while desperately pushing the little boy to the shore!

But the woman's leg was about to break, and it was still several meters away!

Li Fengxia has been panting!

It took her a lot of effort to catch up with the child who was struggling desperately with the tide in the turbulent river, and then she was almost bored with the child in this river that had no support!

However, the rolling water would not give her time to rest.

When a wave hit, the flood control bag that Li Fengxia was holding collapsed instantly! Together with the debris in the water, it pushed her downstream!

"Ah!! Hong'er!!"

The woman's hysterical shouts could still be faintly heard by the riverside!

At this time, Li Fengxia has been disturbed by the flood into the heart of the river!

All kinds of debris hit the body and hurt!

"Ahh

The child let out a short scream, and then followed Li Fengxia into the water.

At the critical moment, she did not let go.

Because she knew that what she was holding in her hand now was a life! Once she let go, this child would never live!

She's old, and she's still a few years old!

She couldn't bear it!!

The black tiger didn't know where it was washed away, the child probably didn't know how to hold his breath, he had choked on the water, and when she finally came out of the water, he was already silent, grabbed her little hand, and let go.

Li Fengxia is in a hurry!

But I looked around blankly, and on the vast water, except for the debris that was flying down the river, it was flat......
