As a newly appointed executive vice mayor with no real power, Liu Junyi's work is very busy, and he rarely has any free time to rest. Pen & Fun & Pavilion www.biquge.info
The TV is playing, Huaxia Science and Technology Award Conference, Liu Junlin won a second prize again, coincidentally, it is still in agriculture, but it is a person from the Academy of Agricultural Sciences, and it was won together, and someone said it last year.
Watching his cousin walk down from above, Liu Junyi got up and turned off the TV, and his wife behind him just walked out.
"Why don't you look at it?"
"I'm not interested in this, what else to see when I see King's Landing win the award!" There is nothing to be tsundere with his wife.
"Don't think about it, now that you're here, let's do it, I believe King's Landing is it!"
"You have more confidence than I do!"
"Of course, I'm a fan of his!"
……
After half a month passed, things calmed down, and there are too many news in this world to pay attention to, for example, because of the arrival of the rainy season, there is a big flood problem in the Jianghuai River basin of Huaxia.
The troops in the Central Plains Theater have all canceled their holidays and are always ready to take the lead, various departments are also running rapidly, and the civilians in danger are rapidly moving.
"Time is of the essence!"
"Hurry up, you just grab life!"
"The people go first!"
"Ensure the safety of people's lives and property!"
……
All kinds of slogans appeared in the streets and alleys of the Jianghuai region, and in every village that might be in danger, there were grassroots cadres of the state mobilizing to do work, and they were persuaded to persuade them to get heavier and heavier for three consecutive days, covering the entire lower reaches of the center of the Yangtze River.
In a short period of time, all parts of the country were in a hurry, and the amount of precipitation in three days had exceeded the amount of water in the river in the whole season, and the people of the whole country were concerned about it in fear.
The old mayor is not in good health and is already in a state of retirement, and this trusted executive deputy mayor, with officials large and small, always appears in the most dangerous places, and has lost several pounds in the past few days, and white hair has appeared on his head.
Liu Junlin was lying in front of the computer, talking about this incident on the news, very worried about these real people, and it also involved the country's food security problems.
Maybe I should do something, so I simply asked for a leave of absence and went directly to my cousin, anyway, I couldn't drown in the water.
In the next few days, Liu Junlin mixed in the crowd, followed his cousin everywhere and watched, even at night, it was just instant noodles and steamed buns.
It's already the fifth day, the flood is getting bigger and bigger, and the flood rolling from the upstream, like a roaring dragon, is constantly hitting the embankment, and the armed police soldiers and patriotic officers and soldiers are already waiting for it.
All kinds of temporary reinforcement measures are being carried out, but God doesn't give face, and no one knows what to do.
"Liu Junyi, comrade, how is your situation there!" The call from the provincial leader came.
"It's dangerous, maybe something will go wrong at some point!"
"Hold on!"
"Understood!"
Simply hung up the phone, Liu Junyi looked at the black and oppressive sky with a gloomy face, and the huge thunder crossed the sky from time to time, but it was only three o'clock in the afternoon, and it looked like eight or nine o'clock in the evening.
"The levee is going to crack!" Suddenly, someone exclaimed.
"Stop it for labor!" Liu Junyi roared angrily, and directly carried the iron catalpa up, and sure enough, a clear crack appeared, and the beautiful reporter who reported on the scene touched the rain on her face and introduced the situation here to the people.
All kinds of machinery and equipment were poured up, and the speed of work was accelerated, but at this moment, the rain increased again, and even the front of the camera could not be seen clearly.
The rumbling roar came down the river, and the people in front of the TV did not dare to look at it, praying in fear.
The soldiers have begun to act, and there are many cement bags and various high-tech equipment on the scene, but at the critical moment, it still depends on the human beings themselves, and the hearts of the people are moving together.
The beautiful reporter, only when she is close to the camera, can she see her face, and even her voice is intermittent: "Please... Everyone...... Bless us! ”
Liu Junlin's whole body was already soaked, the wet clothes were very uncomfortable on his body, and the bad feeling in his heart was getting stronger and stronger, but unfortunately now he had no good way, he could only pray that the embankment was strong enough, at least it could survive this round of heavy rain.
The raindrops the size of beans hurt all over the body, and hundreds of people stood on their faces with nervous faces, and everyone didn't want to be able to take their turn, so they thought that it was the last moment.
The crack that cracked, after all, was a false alarm, nothing major problems happened, and it was quickly repaired completely, but there was something wrong in other places.
It's not that the embankment doesn't give strength, but God doesn't give face.
An earth-shattering thunderclap sounded, and another round of floods washed down, and the levees above had been broken continuously.
There is no good news in the news, Liu Junyi's mobile phone keeps ringing, and bad news is conveyed, the mayor, who has always been elegant, roared at his subordinates in the mobile phone: "Bring people to block up labor and capital, and there is countless food behind you!" ”
The sound of exhaustion, followed the live broadcast of the reporters around him, to the front of the TV, and people could see him with red eyes and roaring.
A young official in his thirties and forties, like the soldiers, rushed up to the breach in the embankment, and bags of cement blocked it, but it was quickly breached, and the secretary and another deputy mayor watched, the secretary in his fifties, watching all this with a blank face.
"Secretary Xu, you can't block it!" The deputy mayor didn't know when, and he retreated covered in mud.
"You can't block it, I'll block it!" Glancing at him coldly, the deputy mayor gritted his teeth and rushed forward again.
Another round of floods came, some officials evacuated early, but there were still people mobilized on the front line, some ordinary people who did not plan to leave, finally panicked, hurriedly left their homes, outside the grassroots officials also began to evacuate, some places have begun to enter the water.
The loudspeaker played over and over again, asking if anyone had not been evacuated, and at five o'clock in the afternoon, all the villages and towns ten kilometers behind the levee had been evacuated.
Upstream another embankment could not stop it from being breached, and the roar of the flood became more and more ferocious, washing down a large number of trees and boulders, which had a great impact on the safety of the embankment.
"The embankment is broken!" Someone shouted in panic, and after a loud bang, the middle of the embankment was washed open a hole of more than two meters, and the boundless river water rushed out. (To be continued.) )
