Lu Zongming, the secretary of Mayor Wang Haihua, stepped forward and said softly: "Mayor, the municipal party committee has called, and there is a major danger in Wuchuan and Xiaoyi counties, and I ask you and Mayor Changlin to immediately go to the municipal flood control headquarters and participate in the standing committee. Wang Haihua was stunned, and hurriedly left Vice Mayor Zheng Ping and returned to the Municipal Flood Control Headquarters with Vice Mayor Wang Changlin.

"Comrade Haihua and Comrade Changlin have arrived, and now the meeting is open." As soon as Mayor Wang Haihua and Vice Mayor Wang Changlin sat down, Secretary Deng Kun was full of seriousness, without any politeness, and went straight to the topic: "There is only one topic today, safe flooding!" Comrade Lin Sizhe, please give us a brief introduction to the water and rain conditions. ”

"Leaders, now I will report to you on the rain and water conditions in the entire Yangtze River basin and Jiangbei Province." Lin Sizhe, director of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau, looked courteous, opened the curtain in front of the conference room, revealing the LED electronic map, the rivers, lakes and seas at a glance, he held the baton, "According to the National Defense General Notice, the upper reaches of the Yangtze River have been raining heavily in the past few days, and there will be no good weather in the next week, the Yangtze River flood peak has passed the Three Gorges yesterday, and will arrive at the Jiangcheng section at three o'clock tomorrow afternoon, and the water level of the Yangtze River has exceeded the warning water level and is at the super-alert water level; At the same time, the lower reaches of the Yangtze River also have heavy to heavy rainfall, the two lakes and two Huai also rained heavy rain, the downstream water flow is not smooth, forming a top, the water level of the Yangtze River may remain high for a long time, requiring all provinces to strictly guard against it, and persist for a long time. At the same time, he also stressed that Typhoon Hongyan, which was formed by a powerful tropical cyclone circling over the southwest Pacific Ocean and the South China Sea, may make landfall along the coast of China in the near future, causing heavy to heavy rainfall in southern China, which will have an even more adverse impact on flood control work in the Yangtze River valley. "Lin Sizhe is clearly organized, after talking about the big situation, and then talking about flood control in Jiangcheng City, "the five districts and three counties of our city are all under the protection of the Yangtze River embankment, and after the municipal party committee and municipal axe have increased investment in recent years, the foot of the river embankment has been renovated, and there is no major danger at present." However, the two counties of Wuchuan and Xiaoyi are seriously waterlogged, and there are major dangers in the inland rivers. Lin Sizhe briefly said the location of the danger again, and then stopped. It is his responsibility as an expert director to explain the situation, and it is not his business to make decisions.

"Comrades, flood control is more important than everything! The safety of the lives and property of the broad masses of the people is pinned on us. Secretary Deng Kun's face was frosty, "Now is the most severe stage of flood control work, and all districts and counties must also strengthen leadership." He tilted his head to Mayor Wang Haihua and said, "Comrade Haihua, I am thinking about sending comrades from the Standing Committee of the Municipal Party Committee to Wuchuan and Xiaoyi counties. ”

"Secretary Deng Kun is very thoughtful." Mayor Wang Haihua handed Secretary Deng Kun a smile, "Comrades, we are [***] members, we must charge ahead, and we must go first if there are difficulties." I agree with Secretary Deng Kun's proposal. "The members of the Standing Committee know that flood prevention work is more important than everything else, and of course no one will raise objections. Next, consider who to send down.

"I think Mayor Changlin has worked in the following districts and counties and has a wealth of experience, so he is a suitable candidate." Propaganda Minister Dang Yiwan is a lesbian in her forties, with gold-rimmed glasses and short hair, who doesn't talk much but is very capable. As soon as she took the lead, the Standing Committee members nodded one after another, and Wang Changlin was not easy to refuse, and met the inquiring eyes of Secretary Deng Kun and Mayor Wang Haihua, and said calmly: "Since the comrades trust me, I will work hard to fight the battle of crossing the flood safely." ”

"Good!" Secretary Deng Kun and Mayor Wang Haihua shouted at the same time, and asked, "Where is Comrade Changlin going?" What else are the requirements? Wang Changlin smiled slightly: "I obey the unified arrangement of the municipal party committee and municipal axe, and I request that a few liaison officers and hydrological and engineering experts go down together." ”

"Good! Our comrades need this style of work without any conditions. Deng Kun nodded to Mayor Wang Haihua, looked at Secretary-General He Rong and said, "Comrade He Rong, this matter is entrusted to you to implement." He Rong hurriedly said yes, and agreed that Wang Changlin would go to Wuchuan County, and Vice Mayor Du Ziyan would go to Xiaoyi County, and if necessary, he could request support from the troops.

After the Standing Committee, Wang Changlin's family did not plan to return, and explained to Xiang Hui: "You call Secretary General Lin Yong, transfer Comrade Han Dong of the Municipal Axe Administration Office, Comrade Quan Minghua, liaison officer of the Jiangbin District Industrial and Commercial Bureau, and other hydrological and engineering experts, and gather at the Municipal Flood Control Headquarters in half an hour. ”

As soon as Quan Minghua received the notice, he first called his wife Yuling, and then called Fang Bin: "Brother, my whole brother." Well, the municipal party committee transferred me and Director Han Dong and Mayor Changlin to Wuchuan to participate in flood control and flood control, well, okay, I will take the opportunity to finish this section, please drink with Yurong. Okay, okay, without further ado, I'm going to leave soon. ”

Half an hour later, when the personnel arrived, Mayor Changlin, Xiang Hui and Deputy Secretary-General Lin Yong sat in the car driven by Liu Hai, and the others sat in an Iveco. First along the Yangtze River embankment all the way, only to see that there are people on duty every other section of the embankment, there are people at the foot of the slope to inspect, not far away there is an embankment collapse, a large group of people are in emergency clearance. As far as the eye can see, the Yangtze River is like a wild horse roaring like thunder, fat and strong, with flying manes and kicking limbs, trying to break free from the shackles of the embankment, wild and unrestrained, and the water surface is not far from the embankment.

"This year's flood is different from previous years, it is menacing." Wang Changlin sighed.

"Yes, according to the National Defense General Bulletin, this year's Yangtze River is a major flood in the whole basin, comparable to 1954." Secretary-General Lin Yong echoed, and Xiang Hui sat in the passenger seat without saying a word. The car drove down the main embankment of the Yangtze River and rushed forward along the bank of the Wuxing River. First of all, the riverside section is a century-old embankment, which has been re-strengthened according to the standard of the Yangtze River main embankment in recent years, and there are still few people who inspect it. After the Jiangbin District is the border of Wuchuan County, mountainous, Wuxing River embankment is built along the mountain, unbreakable. A few cars were parked not far away, and several people were waiting outside the car. At a glance, I knew that it was the people of Wuchuan County who were greeting the leaders of the municipal party committee. Wang Changlin was expressionless: When is it, not to direct flood control, are you still engaged in ushering in that set?

"Mayor Changlin, Comrade Zhongping is the only one." As he got closer and closer, Secretary-General Lin Yong saw that there was only one main leader, Chen Zhongping, the county magistrate, and his heart fell. In fact, the following cadres are also very difficult: the above requires not to be ushered in, but this is a matter of treatment, if you really don't do it, the leaders will have ideas. For example, when the deputy mayor of the Standing Committee came down, he should be accompanied by the secretary of the county magistrate, not to mention the real-time situation of flood control, so he had to make a compromise, and Comrade Zhang Xianren, secretary of the county party committee, continued to command, and asked Comrade Chen Zhongping, the county magistrate, to pick him up.

"Hmm." Wang Changlin also saw that Chen Zhongping was the only one, his face softened slightly, and said to Xiang Hui: "Xiao Xiang, let Comrade Zhongping come up, and other comrades will lead the way in front." ”

"Okay, Mayor." Stopping the car, Xiang Hui said respectfully: "Secretary General Lin, I got out of the car, and the county magistrate Chen came up." Lin Yong was very happy in his heart, this little Xiang was sensible, and smiled: "Go ahead." ”

"Mayor Wang, Secretary General Lin." After a while, the county magistrate Chen Zhongping opened the car door, greeted respectfully, got into the car and sat in the passenger seat, and nodded politely with the driver Liu Hai.

"How's it going? Comrade Zhongping? "Wang Changlin's question is rambling, but you, County Magistrate Chen Zhongping, can't answer rambling.

"Report to the mayor and secretary general, there is no major danger in the main embankment of the Wuxing River in the Wuchuan County section, and the main problem lies in the Yanyanghu Town section of the Chaobai River in the inland river, where Secretary Xianren is commanding, and sent me to greet the leaders of the municipal party committee and introduce the specific situation." Chen Zhongping sat sideways in the front seat, twisting his body backwards, concisely and to the point.

"Okay, let's go directly to Yanyang Lake Town." Wang Changlin was very resolute and said solemnly: "The fact that there is no major danger on the main embankment of the Wuxing River does not mean that there will be no danger, and we must not take it lightly. You must make it clear to the comrades on duty and strengthen inspections. Although Chen Zhongping said the truth, as a superior leader, he must be reminded and the requirements must be strict. Take 10,000 steps back, if something goes wrong, what Wang Changlin said and what he didn't say is a significant difference. Chen Zhongping wiped the sweat from his forehead and hurriedly said, "I will immediately convey the spirit of the mayor's instructions. He took out the phone and yelled at his subordinates for a while, and finally said: "All the cadres take turns to go up the embankment, and the responsibility is to the person, and the military order must be established!" Any cadre who perfunctory or ineffective supervision will be dismissed on the spot. ”

Wang Changlin has worked in Jiangcheng City for many years, has a general understanding of the geography of several districts and counties in the jurisdiction, Wuchuan County is actually a big wall surrounded by the Yangtze River and Wuxing River, and its interior is divided into small ditches of different sizes by several small rivers, Chaobai River is the largest of them, originating in the mountainous area of Hongpo County, flowing through Jiangcheng City, injecting Wuxing River into Yanyang Lake Town, and forming a lake, lotus root and reeds are clustered, it is the habitat of migratory birds to move south and fly north.

Approaching Yanyang Lake Town, only to see a vast ocean at the entrance of the Wuxing River of Chaobai River, much wider than Ping, the lotus stem reed on the lake is missing, the white expanse is a piece, it seems that the sky is high and the water is far away, the embankment facing the water is covered with colorful canvas, blocking the surging wind and waves, the embankment is covered with sandbags, the red flag is displayed, and groups of personnel patrol at the foot of the embankment on the back water.

"Mayor Changlin, Secretary General Lin, you are finally here!" Zhang Xianren, secretary of the Wuchuan County Party Committee, led a large group of cadres to run up to the convoy, and without waiting for the car to stop, he couldn't wait to stretch out his hands, as if the mayor of Changlin had solved all the problems.
