Suddenly the rain in the night was heavy again.

Who wants to be drenched in the rain in the middle of the night?!

The two pumping machines have never stopped, and the whirlpools have been rolled up at the sluice, seeing that the dam is about to overflow, and the water has already slapped against the top of the dam, where can Lu Changhua sit? !

"Let's go, let's get to work."

He is a flood control liaison, and now only he has a position, who is he not Zhang Luo?!

Although the masters of the Daejeon team were unwilling, it can be seen that 18-year-old Lu Changhua put on a raincoat and walked away with a handful, so he had to take tools and brave the rain to come to the sand.

Lu Changhua saw that there was no one to command, so he had to lead the work.

First, there was a division of labor, some people held fertilizer bags, some people took a pinch of sand to fill it, and some people held a horse needle more than ten centimeters long, put on a fine hemp rope, and sealed the bag with sand.

Bags of sandbags with sealed mouths stood next to them.

Two people went up on their shoulders, while others carried bags and stacked them on top of the dam.

Two people were left at the top of the dam to put bags.

If you divide the work well, the efficiency will be improved a lot.

The gentlemen who worked in the rain were still wearing raincoats at first. But it was dry, and my clothes were soaked, so I simply took off my raincoat and threw off my arms to do it.

Lu Changhua also took off his raincoat and went to carry sandbags.

The fertilizer bags used on the farm are all 25 kilograms, loaded with dripping river sand, and the weight exceeds 50 kilograms.

The sand pile is more than 30 meters from the dam.

At night, the vision is very poor, and although there is a dim light, it is also hazy in the heavy rain.

Two people on their shoulders, their arms fighting, sandbags dripping with sewage thrown into the air.

Lu Changhua dodged, caught the sandbag with his shoulder, leaned on the sandbag with his neck and head on one side, and supported it with his arm on the other side to prevent the sandbag from falling crookedly.

The weight of more than 50 kilograms slammed down on his shoulders, and his whole body sank down.

Cautiously moved forward.

The muddy water under your feet is cross-current, and you must grasp the balance with every step, otherwise it will be a big somersault if you slip under your feet.

The other gentlemen who carried sandbags looked at Lu Changhua's appearance and laughed.

"Xiao Lu, forget it if it doesn't work, don't be reckless!"

These people are all people who are used to doing manual work, and under the same conditions, they are good at it.

The sandbags on the dam were built more and more, and soon from the west end to the east side.

"Take a break and catch your breath."

After three hours of drying in one breath, everyone was sleepy and tired, and the rain was drenched, and as soon as the night wind blew, they swayed.

"Let's go, go inside and get warm."

Everyone put down their tools and ran back to the duty room.

Someone went to the kitchen to boil water.

There were no women either, the old men all took off their wet clothes, wore soaked pants and burned on fire, and some simply bare butts.

At this time, it was already past 1 o'clock in the second half of the night.

This kind of work is urgent, the most physically demanding, and everyone is hungry.

When I was touching my belly and swallowing saliva, the window was illuminated, and the rubber-tyred car roared suddenly.

"I'll wipe it, the is coming, quick, put on your clothes."

"Block the door, hey, my pants!"

The duty room was instantly in chaos.

Everyone was busy for a while, and when the door was pushed open, Lao Lu came in with a group of little girls and boys carrying iron buckets, and the room instantly burst into laughter.

"What are you laughing at?" Lao Lu didn't know why, and commanded the girl and the boy to set up the iron bucket.

"What are you nervous about?!"

Seeing the awkward atmosphere here, the little girls muttered.

The laughter in the room was even louder.

Behind the crowd, there were a few more people busy putting on their pants.

Han Jianhua hurriedly walked in with the cadres of the company.

"Comrades have worked hard!"

He took off his hood, wiped the rain from his face, and said.

"It's not hard to eat!"

I don't know who shouted, and the people below also said: "It's not hard." ”

"As soon as we finished arranging the inspection work in Daejeon tomorrow, we brought the cadres here, and we can't just let the comrades work, we also have to go there."

As soon as these words came out, the grandfathers of the Daejeon team were silent.

They ate their hot meal in silence, and then walked into the rain again.

Han Jianhua, Li Zhenguo and other leaders also rushed over.

Lao Lu commanded to clean up the iron buckets, dishes and chopsticks, and arranged for the little girls to boil water in the kitchen of the duty room, ready to warm everyone's body.

He followed with the boys from the cafeteria and rushed into the rain.

At such times, no one cares who you are, as long as it is to fight the flood, everyone has to help. This involves tens of thousands of acres of wheat and soybeans, as well as the rations of farm workers.

More and more people are involved in labor up and down the dam.

Many people spontaneously ran in the dark from the family area to carry sandbags.

By the time it was light, there were already hundreds of people on the dam.

A long wall of sandbags was stacked at the top of the dam.

From west to east, like a city wall, the flood dam of the reservoir was finally stopped.

"Old Lu, don't do it, hurry back to the cafeteria to cook, and prepare it for 150 people."

"Okay."

Lu Zaigao wiped the rainwater, greeted the apprentice, and rushed to the cafeteria.

Seeing the flood in the dam wave after wave, lapping against the sand wall, Han Jianhua was very worried.

"Director, I think it is still necessary to discharge the flood in time, and it is not a way to block it like this."

Lu Changhua ran over panting.

"Flooding? Rip the dam open? Li Zhenguo stared at the beads of his eyes with an incredible expression. It's been a busy night, and I finally built a sand wall, and you say it's just picking?!

"Director, captain, the flood can't be stopped, and the flood must be discharged, otherwise the dam is in danger of collapsing."

"You!"

Li Zhenguo wanted to say something, but was stopped by Han Jianhua.

"What's the deal?"

"At each end of the dam, the east end and the west end, a one-metre-deep opening will be made to help discharge the flood water and reduce the pressure on the culvert of the dam, so that the dam may be saved."

"Then why didn't you say it yesterday? Isn't it better to have premature ejaculation since flooding? Why are you still building a sand wall? ”

Li Zhenguo's eyes turned red.

Isn't this night in vain?!

"Captain, put sandbags on the base to buy us time. If it weren't for sandbags, the flood would have overflowed the levees. On the barrier, we have time to release the flood. ”

Lu Changhua turned his head to look at Han Jianhua.

"Director Han, we must send bulldozers to push out the flood outlets on both sides, otherwise the dam will not be protected."

"That's the only way?"

In fact, no one wants to just build it and open it again.

"Director, it's not all of it, it's both ends."

"The two ends are next to the shore, there are support points, and they won't collapse easily, and if you pick up the middle, it'll be over in an instant."

"Okay, Lao Li, you hurry up and arrange for the bulldozer to enter the field, the sooner the better!"

"Okay."

After listening to the explanation, Li Zhenguo pondered in his heart.

He turned around and ran to the rubber-tyred cart and asked the driver to take him to Master Lin and Master Tang.

The sky was bright and the rain was hazy.

Two bulldozers roared from the vegetable garden road with puffs of black smoke.

It was followed by a rubber-tyred cart, splashing muddy water abruptly.

Lu Changhua faced the bulldozer at the dam and explained the specific location of the flood outlet. Master Tang nodded, increased the throttle and rushed to the dam, he was in charge of the east end.

Master Lin is in charge of the west end, which is the end next to the duty room.

The roar of the bulldozer became the music of the breakfast of the rescue crews.

There is simply no room for so many people in the duty room.

Many people who came to support spontaneously just took a steamed bun and squatted on the brick floor to eat.

Lu Changhua sat in the passenger seat of Master Lin and watched as he pushed away the dirt on the edge of the dam.

Every time you shovel it down, it drowns some water.

After a dozen shovels, a stream of water tens of centimeters high rumbled over.

"Reverse, reverse."

Lu Changhua hurriedly shouted.

Master Lin reversed gear, and the throttle was pulled to the end.

Boom Boom!

The bulldozer held the shovel, and the two tracks turned in a desperate reversal, rolling dirt and water out of the spillway.

At this time, the two of them were also shocked into a cold sweat.

Looking at the flood rolling five meters away, Lu Changhua's heart was much more settled. As long as the floodgates at both ends are open, then the pressure of the dam will naturally decrease, and it is hoped that the dam will hold up.

"Changhua, Master Lin, give you your food."

Han Ying walked over with another little girl with a vegetable bowl and steamed buns.

"Thank you."

Master Lin took the meal with a smile, revealing a mouthful of white teeth.

"Changhua, it's yours."

Han Ying handed the food in her hand to Lu Changhua.

"Thank you."

He took it and ate it.

"Have you eaten?" Lu Changhua asked, he wanted to know if his father had been busy eating for a long time.

"I'm going to eat it."

Han Ying looked at the wet Lu Changhua with a distressed face.

"Your injuries are not healed yet, why don't you tell my dad and go back to rest!"

"No, I'm a flood control liaison, how can I leave?"

As he spoke, there was a roar at the eastern end of the dam.

Master Tang's bulldozer also retreated to the shore.

But he was separated from the east by the flood, and he would not be able to come back for a while.

The floodwaters on both sides of the reservoir rumbled and the water level gradually began to drop.

A day later, the water had dropped below the outlet.

The measured water level is around 7 meters, and there is still a surplus of nearly 3 meters.

The two outlets were again filled by bulldozers.

The reservoir was saved, the dam was saved.

But the flooding in the farmland is severe.

Many of the wheat seedlings were submerged in the water, and the bean ridges became ditches.

Lu Changhua was arranged by Han Jianhua to set up a rescue commando team, and Lu Changhua was the captain to go to the areas where farmland was seriously flooded to drain water.

Lao Lu's rubber-tyred vehicle became a special vehicle for the rescue team.

The trailer is equipped with a diesel generator, and the pump, canvas hose, shovel, wire, and electric control box are loaded on the truck.

Seven or eight young men became temporary rescue crews.

Hu Dagui was also asked to enter the team by Lu Changhua.

You must know that the rescue team has a subsidy of 1 yuan per day.

Lu Changhua spent the whole of June in the fields.

Fortunately, after mid-June, the sky cleared.

However, heavy rainstorms at the end of May and early June caused the entire Changshui Farm to be waterlogged.

Flood control and drainage have become the focus of work at this stage.

"Throw the outlet pipe into the gutter."

"Push the brakes."

Buzz!

The pumping machine sucks up the water in the depression like a dragon king and discharges it into the ditch on the edge of the windbreak.

Lu Changhua's legs were stuck in the mud and he couldn't pull them out.

"Pull me along."

"Changhua, it's not that my brother won't save you, it's that I can't protect myself."

Hu Dagui sat on a dry bean ridge ten meters away, but he didn't get up.

"You're messing with me, aren't you? You seem to be late today. ”

Lu Changhua said with the old god there.

"Hey, don't, I'll save you."

was pinched by someone, Hu Dagui got up sharply, picked up the hemp rope with the thickness of his thumb beside him, threw it twice, and threw it hard.

Lu Changhua caught the hemp rope, wrapped it around his waist, and tied it.

Then he said, "Pull." ”

Hu Dagui used his strength to eat milk and pulled Lu Changhua out of the quagmire step by step.
