On the river embankment in Lan County, people are constantly busy. Suddenly, there was a cheer ahead.

It turned out that the water in Songjiang had begun to fall for unknown reasons. As soon as the pressure of the water is small, the seepage of sandbags has also been greatly alleviated. Everyone breathed a sigh of relief, thinking that the heavy rain upstream had stopped, so the water level would start to fall.

It's just that the leaders of the county flood control headquarters feel very strange. Because, a few days ago, they received an urgent notification from above, the heavy rain upstream will continue to rain for about a week, and now it has only been three days, could it be that the above report is wrong. Anyway, as long as the water can recede.

At this moment, I saw a young man running to the embankment out of breath and finding the leader who was directing the crowd to stack sandbags.

"The county magistrate, I just received a call from the city's flood control headquarters informing us that a wave of flood peaks will arrive in our county in more than an hour, so let's get ready immediately. If the embankment cannot be defended, it will immediately organize an evacuation to avoid casualties. ”

The leader, known as the county magistrate, was stunned. "Isn't that right? The water level has already dropped, how can there still be a flood peak, is it still raining upstream?"

"No, we can't withdraw now, we can hold on for a while, we can hold on for a while, we have to let the people behind us prepare to evacuate first. The rain came so quickly that we were caught off guard!"

The county magistrate actually did not listen to the orders of his superiors, and instructed the people on the river embankment to continue to stack sandbags and strive to resist the next flood peak.

In the intense work of these people, time passed little by little. There were even a few who fell down from being exhausted directly on the embankment and were carried down.

However, the rest of these people are still holding on, and as long as there is a glimmer of hope of victory, they will give up. The great leader once said: "Man will conquer heaven! Unity is strength!"

These heroes who participated in the flood fighting and rescue were united in their hearts and did not have the slightest fear of floods. They firmly believe that as long as there is a breath of air, they will be able to protect the river embankment.

These people on the embankment are still busy nervously. However, after waiting for more than an hour, the shadow of Hong Feng did not appear at all, but the water level dropped a lot.

It seems that the report was really wrong. Now that the water level has dropped, the leaders began to arrange for people to take turns to rest, and the staff of the county water conservancy bureau measured the water level and flow and reported to the superiors.

When the data was reported to the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau by phone, the leaders of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau were so angry that they slapped the table and scolded the people of the Lan County Water Conservancy Bureau on the phone.

"If you dare to lie about the military situation, deceive your superiors and subordinates, and treat the flood as nothing, you will definitely delay the fighter planes and cause a catastrophe. You must organize the evacuation immediately. ”

Floods are a major matter of human life, where do anyone dare to report it indiscriminately. Obviously, the flood has receded, but there is no way to do it, and the people above have big mouths.

The people from the county water conservancy bureau ran back to the river and took a new measurement. The facts are in front of you, the water level has indeed dropped, and the flow has really decreased. "Come on, let's do it again. ”

This time, the leaders of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau were really puzzled, because the flood peak data reported by the upstream water conservancy monitoring station more than an hour ago was in front of them, and it had already exceeded the warning water level, and the flow was unprecedented.

But when I arrived in Lan County, it was only a few dozen kilometers away, and the water level and flow had changed so much. "Is this flood suddenly gone?"

At that time, the cadres of Huaxia were staunch materialists, and they only believed in the facts. Since the situation has improved, let's think about the bright side. I hope that this time Lan County can safely resist the flood.

Heavy rain continued for three days, but the beginning was intermittent, but the speed of the water flow downstream was still very fast, and the pressure of flood control and rescue was very high.

But when I arrived in Lan County, the waves were calm, the water level had returned to normal, and only some people needed to be left on duty on the embankment. I don't know who started it, but the people on the embankment sang a song. "Unity is strength, unity is strength, this strength is iron, this strength is steel, harder than iron, stronger than steel......"

Gradually, the heavy rain finally stopped. After the rain, the water level of the Songjiang and Mudan rivers also began to drop.

Lan County finally ushered in the final victory of flood fighting and rescue. At the summary and commendation meeting, the secretary of Lan County delivered an enthusiastic and passionate speech.

"We have achieved a great victory in flood fighting and rescue in Lan County...... We firmly believe that man will conquer heaven! This is the power of unity! The revolutionary and fearless spirit of the broad masses of our party members, the masses, and the entire army and people has played a tremendous role......"

Since the drop in the water level cannot be explained by common sense, our leading comrades have cleverly attributed it to the power of the masses.

Our outstanding flood fighting teenager Li Xuan has become a real behind-the-scenes hero. But if Li Xuan was really allowed to come to the fore and talk about his experience in fighting floods, Li Xuan would not be able to say it! Low-key is the king!

Li Xuan stood by the river for three days and three nights, sleepless, just to monitor the flow of the river, if it is too little, the flood will continue to destroy the downstream. If the flood stops, someone will definitely come to see what is going on, and it will be exposed.

When the rain stopped, Li Xuan walked to the county seat of Lanxian County, found a guest house, and slept for a whole day and a night before he could be considered to recuperate.

At that time, the people in the whole county were busy with the post-disaster clean-up work, and no one cared about where Li Xuan came from and why his hair was so long.

After resting for a day, Li Xuan continued to feel along the river, and he finally felt the tyranny of the water. This time, what he saw was no longer beautiful scenery, but a mess and devastation after the flood, the farmland was wantonly inundated by the roaring flood, and the riverside was full of all kinds of garbage and debris washed down from the upstream, muddy and stinking.

In such a harsh environment, Li Xuan felt a hint of new life. In this flooded land, some small grasses have raised their backs without hesitation, and new shoots have regrown, full of hope for life.

Suddenly, Li Xuan saw a black mass rushing down from the upstream. When he looked closely, it turned out to be a swarm of ants hugging an ant ball.

"Ant ball?" Li Xuan was puzzled. Slowly, the ant ball floated over, getting closer and closer to Li Xuan. Li Xuan finally saw clearly, it was an ant ball the size of a football!

The black ants huddled together. As the waves were raging, the ant balls were drifting forward, and small groups of ants were constantly being knocked down by the waves and washed away by the floodwaters.

Li Xuan made a move with his hand, and a stream of water appeared out of thin air, holding the ant ball to the shore. As soon as the ant ball landed, it was like a landing craft on the water, rushing up to the river bank in a row quickly and orderly, and successfully completing the landing. And the ants at the bottom are dead and will never come up. However, they still hugged each other tightly.

Li Xuan watched silently, and realized a kind of team strength of "people's hearts are united and Mount Tai moves".

When the flood came, these tiny ants quickly gathered and gathered...... Gathered into a large mass of ants. When the water overflowed, not a single ant scattered and fled, but floated on the surface of the water in a group. A gentle breeze blew, and the ant mass slowly rolled forward on the surface of the water, as if floating lightly.

In fact, some of the ants have drowned, carried away by the current. However, their sacrifice has earned other ants a chance to survive. When they reach safety, the ants quickly disperse and begin to rebuild their homes, avoiding the danger of extinction.

Ants can escape the danger of flooding because of a kind of "team strength". The team is like a convex lens, which can concentrate the scattered forces to one point, show infinite strength, gather everyone's wisdom to solve one problem after another, and gather everyone's strength to break through one obstacle after another.

No matter how brilliant a person's wisdom is, it cannot withstand the power of unity, because unity is strength.

A flower, no matter how small it is, needs the moisture of rain, the gift of fertile soil, the sunshine, and the backdrop of green leaves.

A person, no matter how great he is, needs this kind of team strength, and a person who despises or even abandons the team strength will become a source of water and a tree without roots, and all efforts will lose their luster.

Li Xuan realized from this that he also needed some team strength. Merit is never done. Only the more people who do good deeds, the greater the merit will be, and the speed at which they can repair the Xuanhuang Linglong Pagoda of Heaven and Earth will be faster.
