Chapter 20: Underwater Distress
At 6 o'clock in the evening, the water level of the Han River was 44.87 meters, and by 8 o'clock, it was already 44.92 meters. Xi Tianjiao presided over a meeting on the prevention of the Han River to discuss the issue of flood distribution. The flood diversion means that the 721.34 square kilometers of land in the flood diversion area of the Han River will be turned into a country in the blink of an eye, which means that 375,000 people will be transferred, which means about 15 billion yuan of direct and indirect economic losses and great difficulties in post-disaster reconstruction. Will the 350-kilometer-long Han River embankment be able to hold on to the flood water? If it breaks through, the entire city of Huiquan will be flooded, and the losses will not be calculated in tens of billions of dollars.
"Prime Minister, just now I received another report that the water level of the Han River is already 44.98 meters. In two days, the Han River will usher in its third flood peak, and the water level may continue to rise. Therefore, in order to ensure the safety of Hangang City. We believe that the levees should be blown up to divert the floodwater. I don't know if he was too excited or worried, but the mayor of Huiquan City had tears in his eyes. Due to the psychological pressure caused by the collapse of the Hexi embankment, people are inevitably a little nervous in the face of the raging flood. Xi Tianjiao pondered for a moment and said: "We must be cautious about the issue of flood distribution, once the flood is divided, hundreds of thousands of people will have to be transferred, and more than 10 billion yuan of property will be wasted. I think that no matter how big the matter of Hexi Dayuan is, it is still partial, and it is still necessary to strictly guard the embankment, and whether it will divide the flood or not, we still have to see and see. However, the work of relocating the masses in the flood distribution areas must not be relaxed. ”
He turned his head to look at Chief Engineer Chen of the Ministry of Water Resources and said, "Old Chen, tell me about it." Chief Engineer Chen raised his glasses and said: "The key to dividing the flood is whether the most scientific and accurate data is mastered. You divide the flood, and here it is reduced by 1 meter, but the weak link that is going to collapse has not been reduced much, and it is still possible to collapse. In addition, the embankment of the Han River has been raised by another 50 centimeters. Even if the water level of the Han River is running at a high level, as long as the embankment itself does not collapse, there is no problem in meeting the No. 3 flood peak. ”
"There is no problem with the embankment itself, but it cannot withstand long-term immersion. In addition, most of the officers and men guarding the embankment have been fighting for seven or eight days, and it is difficult to ......reinforce another 50 centimeters," said the leaders of Huiquan City, who were obviously not satisfied with Chief Engineer Chen's statement.
"Old Zhong, talk about your opinion. Xi Tianjiao looked at Zhong Tianqi.
"Chief, those who are good at fighting do not fight. I don't understand anything technical. However, I can guarantee that the embankment will be raised by 60 centimeters in one day. As long as you give the order, we guarantee that the people are in the embankment. ”
After a moment of silence, Xi Tianjiao said with a firm gaze: "I order all the flood control and rescue personnel to immediately organize the embankment reinforcement work to ensure that it is not less than 50 centimeters to deal with the No. 3 flood peak." ”
At this time, in the Longfeng Group Building in Huiquan City, Ye Wenrou was reading the newspaper in her hand. The flood has had a great impact on Longfeng Group, and most of the construction sites have been suspended. In the photo news of Vice Premier Xi Tianjiao's inspection of the front line, she clearly saw Sun Yu's figure. "He even came. After pondering for a long time, she walked to Wu Junwen's office. "Junwen, I read in the newspaper that the flood situation is very serious, does the company also organize some people to participate in the rescue and disaster relief? "A while ago, the company has donated a lot of things. Do you want to donate again?" "I think it's better to use our advantages to form a rescue team and directly see the flood fighting." This can not only promote our brand, but also reflect our corporate social responsibility. "That's a good idea. ”
The next day, more than 80 people from the "Longfeng Group Flood Fighting and Rescue Team", waving flags, driving 4 excavators, 1 bulldozer, and a number of flood control materials, participated in the reinforcement and rescue of Hexi Dayuan.
Sun Yu was organizing personnel to inspect, and suddenly heard Wen Song shouting, "Look, the beauty is coming to fight the flood!" His eyes lit up, and he found that Ye Wenrou had short neck-length hair, was facing the sky, and was walking over in a camouflage uniform. Sun Yu smiled and said, "Oh, the big boss also went into battle in person." Since coming back, Wenrou has seen him so hearty and happy for the first time. She couldn't help but smile and said: "The army and the people are united as one, try to see who can be the enemy in the world." ”
For two days in a row, the flood rescue team of Longfeng Group fought side by side with various rescue teams, and the embankment was quickly raised by 60 centimeters. There seems to be a lot less mustard between Ye Wenrou and Sun Yu. Zhang Tianling, deputy secretary of the municipal party committee, returned to the front line of flood control and came to thank Sun Yu.
After Zhang Tianling left, Ye Wenrou smiled and said, "This is the beautiful secretary you saved?" "Hmm". Looking at the turbulent river under her feet, Ye Wenrou sighed and said, "You said you are stupid, the water is so urgent." You don't want to die?" Seeing that Sun Yu was silent, she continued: "If I fall, I will never let you save me." Sun Yu looked up at her with a serious look on his face, and said with a smile: "What nonsense." You're better water-based than I am. Then save me. ”
After lunch, Sun Yu was sleepy, he wanted to sleep for a while, but he was worried about a new task. Looking at Sun Yu's tired appearance, Wenrou felt distressed and said, "You haven't had a good rest, why don't you go sleep for a while." ”
Sun Yu smiled: "It's okay, I'm strong and can eat." Ye Wenrou frowned and said, "What can you eat?" You see that your eyes are dark. Let me tell you, the Longfeng rescue team is also patrolling the embankment, and there is no emergency rescue work. You'd better pay attention to your body. Don't come here to help us with the relief, you'll be broken to the bone. ”
Sun Yu was about to speak, when he was suddenly awakened by a terrible whistle. The 3rd Special Operations Company was divided into 10 teams to patrol the embankment, one group was 50 meters away, and when they found danger, they blew the whistle to give the police. Ye Wenrou asked strangely, "What's the matter?" Sun Yu looked serious and said, "Hong Feng is about to arrive, and there is a situation." Wenrou, you should retreat quickly, there may be danger here. Ye Wenrou bit her lip and whispered, "I won't leave, I'll accompany you!"
Sun Yu turned his head to look at her, and his delicate and lovely face shone with a glittering look. Sun Yu shook his head lightly and didn't say anything more, and hurried in the direction of the whistle. The warriors had already quickly gathered and rushed over. Sun Yu saw the river under the embankment swirling and slowly retreating. In a field about forty or fifty meters away from the embankment, water from the Han River gushes like a spring through a pipe. In ten minutes, the water gushing through the pipe has become much larger, and it has a tendency to worsen.
Sun Yu shouted loudly: "Stones, block the exit with stones, and reduce the flow rate!" Dozens of soldiers rushed over, and hundreds of stones were thrown into the outlet of the pipe, and then into the sandbags, and the water slowed down all of a sudden. "To control it fundamentally, we need to feel the drainage underwater. The flood control personnel who came together said.
The 3rd Special Operations Company quickly formed five underwater exploration groups and began to investigate. The current under the surface of the water was so rapid that a dozen fighters dived in vain. "Come, I'll go down. Sun Yu said, tying two safety ropes to himself. "Company commander, how can this work?" shouted Leng Song, who had just climbed out of the water. "Why not?" Sun Yu glared at him. The few scouts who just went down were all the backbone of the company. They all went down to no avail, and it didn't make much sense for the other fighters to go down any further.
Sun Yu wrapped the signal rope around his left arm and bit the steel drill horizontally with his mouth. After confirming that there was no problem, he turned around and glanced at Ye Wenrou. Then, step into the Han River and dive into the water with your eyes closed. Sun Yu's body felt the force of being pushed by the current in the direction of the vortex, and quickly dived to the bottom of the river. After exploring the bottom of the river for a while, he suddenly felt the water flow here to form a whirlpool, and the huge suction force made him rush towards the slope of the river embankment.
