Chapter 81 Battle of the Dams

From early May to early June, Wang Siyu had been accompanying Tian Zhongshi, director of the Industrial Bureau, to investigate and research in the following enterprises, helping them solve many practical difficulties. In addition, he also visited the Industrial Bureau employees who were doing assistance work in the enterprises. He could not fool everyone and ignore it. Wang Siyu could not do that kind of thing. For those employees who were in trouble at home or had poor health, Wang Siyu gave a special approval and allowed them to return to the Industrial Bureau. After all, the assistance enterprises were not to go to the countryside, and the situations faced by many enterprises were complicated, and it was not possible to solve it with just one person's passion.

However, the previous measures have indeed played a certain role. At least the current enterprises are very motivated from top to bottom. From leaders to employees, they all know that a young deputy county magistrate who has worked hard in the county is brave and courageous, so they have put in full force to achieve some results. Therefore, various statistics from April to June show that Qingyang County's industrial data has indeed improved significantly compared with the same period last year.

Just when Wang Siyu and the employees of the industrial system were full of energy, God poured a basin of cold water on them, which also made all the Qingyang people feel cool. The heavy rainstorms for five days and five nights have caused the Qingyang River to soar. In addition, there were mountain torrents in the upper reaches of the Qingyang River, and some of the floods also poured into the Qingyang River, making the situation here extremely critical. The clear river water in the past is now rolling with turbid waves, angrily hitting the embankment, just like a restless sword, which is about to be deshewn at any time. The Qingyang people are now facing an unprecedented crisis.

The Qingyang County Party Committee and County Government responded very quickly. Just when the water level of Qingyang River approached the cordon, a flood control and rescue command was established. As the water level continued to rise, the command center moved from the conference room on the sixth floor of the county party committee office to the edge of Qingyang Bridge. The commander-in-chief was the county party secretary Su Yuanshan, and the deputy commander-in-chief was the county magistrate Zou Hai. All members of the Standing Committee were members of the Standing Committee. In the large tent next to Qingyang Bridge, there was an office desk, two spring beds, and several chairs. The Standing Committee members took turns on duty and changed shifts every twelve hours.

In order to prevent geological disasters that may come at any time, the command center mobilized 16 excavators and more than 50 small trucks in the county to transport sandbags to the river bank day and night, built two lines of defense along the banks of the Qingyang River, and transferred a total of 700 employees from various agencies and units and enterprises to take turns on duty. Faced with this unprecedented huge crisis, the Qingyang people showed great cohesion. No one called on them. Many citizens spontaneously joined the flood fighting and rescue team, and even taxi drivers joined the team transporting sandbags.

At 11:30 at night, the heavy rain still showed no sign of stopping. Wang Siyu wore a raincoat and held a flashlight. Accompanied by Li Qingmei and Tian Zhongzhong, he was patrolling a section of the river embankment west of Qingyang Bridge. The nearly 200-meter-long defense line here is the responsibility of employees of the industrial system. Except for the dairy factory still producing as usual, most of the other companies have been stopped, and the employees are fighting the front line in the rain.

Walking along the river bank, I saw many tired employees lying on the dam. Many of them were already asleep in the rain. Wang Siyu walked to the sandbag with the accumulated water. Looking down, the river bank had risen to the bottom of the sandbag, which was less than two feet away from the highest point. When he looked up at the sky, he felt even more uneasy.

The three of them walked forward fifty meters and heard a "bang bang" sound in front of them. The three of them raised their flashlights and shone forward. Five meters away, a strong man was swinging an iron hammer barely, and was nailing sharpened wooden stakes behind the sandbag. When they walked up to him, they saw that it was Li Feidao.

"Old Li, you have to take a break. Get up early tomorrow and work. You and County Magistrate Wang are too tired!" Tian Zhongshi was already covered in blood at this time and shouted at the top of his throat.

Li Feidao turned his head and saw that it was the three of them. He smiled and shouted loudly: "It's okay, I'll go to bed with another thirty stakes."

Wang Siyu walked over, took out the teacup from his pocket and handed it over. Li Feidao took it and unscrewed the lid, took a few big sips, handed over the teacup and said, "It's better to rain here, I'm afraid there will be problems upstream, otherwise it will be easy to get into trouble if it rises by one foot. The continuous high water level will have the greatest destructive effect on the dam."

Wang Siyu nodded, patted his shoulder, and whispered: "Old Li, be careful of rest."

He knew that Li Feidao had never been down the embankment these two days, and had been guarding here all the time, but he was doing the commanding work, which was better, while Li Feidao was purely physical work. He drove hundreds of wooden stakes along the embankment. If he had to be replaced by ordinary people, he would have been so tired that he could not get up on the ground. However, this guy was always full of energy, and he felt like he could not use all his strength in his body, and he had no intention of being able to hold on. Wang Siyu admired this man who was so stubborn. He was such a famous man. He was really a good man.

Li Feidao wiped the sweat from his face, smiled, and waved his hand and said, "It's okay, don't worry if I'm here. You haven't had a rest for a long time. Come home and have a sleep."

Wang Siyu was indeed a little unable to hold on. He felt a little clear-headed and confused, but he still insisted on walking down the embankment. He felt that the terrain on the side he was responsible for was higher and the pressure was lower. The terrain on the side of Xie Rongting and Ye Huasheng was much lower than here. It was probably the time to be tight now.

He walked down more than 200 meters. Sure enough, he saw the silhouette in the rain in front of him, shouting constantly. He had already pulled up the temporary lights here. He saw Ye Huasheng holding a big horn in his hand and directing a group of people to rush up the embankment with sandbags. At this time, Xie Rongting ran over from the front, grabbed the big horn in Ye Huasheng's hand, and shouted loudly: "Sankeshu are tight, call the crane, sink the scrap truck and the stones, hurry! Quick! Quick..."

At this time, Ye Huasheng hurriedly shouted: "The crane is not good, the crane is not that powerful. You have to use two forklifts to push it down. Go and call the forklift."

At this time, Wang Siyu and the other three had already walked up to him. Ye Huasheng and Xie Rongting hurried over and said loudly: "County Magistrate Wang, why are you here? It's dangerous here, please go back quickly."

Wang Siyu shook his head, ran straight to the edge of the three trees, and walked around, snatched the loudspeaker in Xie Rongting's hand and shouted: "You can't call a forklift, the forklift cannot come up, the soil here has been soaked, and the forklift cannot come in, so you can call a crane, and the crane will stop in the distance to hang. As long as the truck moves a little, we will use the wooden stake to push it down."

At this time, the crowd stopped doing it, and someone shouted loudly: "What's going on? Each person is the one who orders, who is the one who listens to Male Gobi?!"

Ye Huasheng took the loudspeaker and yelled, "Everyone heard from County Magistrate Wang, go and call the crane, everyone will find five stakes."

After a while, the crane drove over and stopped on the hard ground six or seven meters away, and threw the huge robot hand over. Everyone rushed to the scrap truck, wrapped the wire rope with all their hands and feet. Then everyone carried six or seven wooden stakes and pushed over. Ye Huasheng held up his horn and shouted: "One, two, three, try hard! One, two, three, try hard!"

Less than three minutes later, there was a loud "boom". Amid the cheers of everyone, the used truck was finally pushed down. Large waves splashed in the river, making everyone's body splashed with mud.

At the same time, the crane driver quickly put down his mechanical arm and wandered around for a long time, but he couldn't get the hook out of the wire rope. He was so angry that he couldn't help but sit in the crane and curse: "Who came up with a bad idea? What if the hook can't be picked off!"

Wang Siyu pretended not to hear it, thinking about when it was already, and he was thinking about your broken crane. If you don’t work, you will think of your broken crane in the river. As long as you can keep the dam, you can use any bad idea.

He wiped the rain from his face, threw it out, patted the reinforced sandbag and shouted, "Old Ye, Lao Xie, you are just the place where the river is closed and the water flows too fast. I see that the width of one and a half meters will definitely not be enough. It will be widened, and at least you have to add another layer of sandbag!"

"There are not enough staff!" Ye Huasheng shook his raincoat next to him and complained loudly.

"Lao Tian, ​​go back and ask Lao Li to tie a dozen people to come here to support him. You must add another layer before dawn." Wang Siyu turned around and shouted.

Tian Zhongshi hurriedly shouted: "Okay! I'll go now."

At this time, Li Qingmei's face was pale and she sat in the mud. Wang Siyu hurriedly reached out and pulled her up from the ground and asked softly: "Director Li, are you okay?"

Li Qingmei picked up the umbrella in her hand, nodded vigorously and said, "It's okay!"

Seeing that her eyes were already dark and bloodshot, Wang Siyu frowned and shouted, "Go back to sleep quickly, you can't help here, go back to sleep."

Li Qingmei was so angry that her lips trembled, but she didn't say a word and didn't move a step.

After more than ten minutes, Li Feidao led a dozen people to come over with mud and water. Without saying a word, he rushed up the river bank with a sand bag. After a while, Tian Zhongshi ran back with one foot and one foot, and said breathlessly: "I have brought the person back, County Magistrate Wang, no one can be staring there, I will go back first."

Seeing this, Wang Siyu shook his head and said, "You'd better go back to sleep first. I'll forget it. You are old and old, so don't have anything to do."

Tian Zhongshi immediately patted his chest and said loudly: "Don't worry, I've been resting all night yesterday. I have endless strength to work with a leader like you, and I'm not tired at all. I'll be fine if I work for three days and three nights."

After saying that, before Wang Siyu could speak again, he ran back shakingly with his big belly.

Li Qingmei was already so angry that she trembled all over by Wang Siyu's words just now, but when she saw Tian Zhongshi taking advantage of the situation, she always kept laughing and laughed "giggling".

Wang Siyu looked in for a moment, but saw her turning her head angrily and shouting loudly: "Come on everyone!"

Someone suddenly responded in the distance: "Hey! Hey! Listen, there are girls!"

Suddenly everyone's speed increased a little more. Li Qingmei turned her head proudly and demonstrated to Wang Siyu. The meaning was very obvious. Who said I couldn't help at all?

Wang Siyu took the flashlight and looked around, shook his head and said, "What I worry most is Qingyang Bridge. Don't have any problems with that bridge, otherwise the trouble will be big."

Xie Rongsheng hurriedly said, "That bridge is absolutely fine."

Ye Huasheng added from the side: "That was built by Secretary Xie himself when he was there. The materials and other standards are higher than the design standards. Unfortunately, he was squeezed away after less than a year of work. Otherwise, the river embankment would have been reinforced long ago, so everyone would not have to suffer this time."

Wang Siyu frowned and said nothing. Ye Huasheng immediately realized that he was talking too much and hurriedly grabbed his beard and said, "County Magistrate Wang, hurry up and go back and rest. There are two of us here staring at us, so you can rest a hundred and twenty hearts."

Wang Siyu was really unable to bear it at this time. Besides, Li Qingmei was already standing next to her shaking, but she gritted her teeth and stood up. Seeing her appearance, if she didn't leave, she wouldn't leave first. Thinking of this, she sighed slightly, and Wang Siyu nodded and said, "Okay, be careful, I'll go back and take a nap first."
