Chapter 871 Jinshan Lake collapses

The flooding has accumulated a lot in the past few months. With several pumps and pumping water, the water cannot be drained. The simple bungalows in the paper mill shantytown are so low that almost every household is immersed in water. Xing Aiguo's prestige is still there, and it is not difficult to evacuate and mobilize. A mobilization team has also been organized. The key is the coordination of evacuation and resettlement and the city's flood control commander-in-chief.

Zhang Yi, Xing Wenli and Zhang Yi's last wife, Sun Ting, who had just been transferred to the Jinshan branch of Jinshan of Jinhu Commercial Bureau, and others went to the West Bank to coordinate the evacuation of nearly 10,000 residents in the shantytown and other dilapidated buildings in living areas.

Regarding the issue of coordination with the city's flood control commander, after the Xing Aiguo and the mobilization team came up with a preliminary plan, Tan Tian also organized a convoy of 60 trucks in the city to cross the river from the lower reaches of the Yinma River to the west bank. Zhang Ke personally rushed to the flood control command center newly established on the south side of the Xincheng District to find Zhao Youlun, and asked Zhao Youlun to include the evacuation of the residents of the shanty township in the general deployment, and cooperated with the Siyan Township evacuation to share the Chenyan Road evacuation to avoid unnecessary chaos and delay the evacuation speed.

The Municipal Flood Control Headquarters are in a mess, and the phone rings are coming one after another.

Seeing Zhang Ke enter the flood control headquarters, Zhou Jinyu looked gloomy. The evacuated paper shantytown residents did not occupy the city's flood control resources. She couldn't say anything. Over the past ten months, Jinhu has donated millions of flood control materials worth millions of yuan to Jinshan City, and countless flood control materials donated to Jiangnan, Donghai provinces and other disaster-stricken areas in the country. Can she still say that Zhang Ke has bitten a mouse and meddled with other people's business?

There are flood peaks in the upper reaches of the small river, and there are flood peaks in the upper reaches of the Yinma River. Although the flood peaks in the upper reaches of the Yinma River are smaller, the dams in the lower reaches of Jinshan Lake and the Yinma River have reached the limit they can bear. The high water level of the small river makes it impossible for the Jinshan Lake to be discharged from the small river. Even when the small river flood peak arrives, Guanji River Gate should prevent the river water from flowing back.

The situation in Siyan Township is the most critical. When the residents of Siyan Township are evacuated, a natural flood discharge vent will be formed, which can reduce the flood control pressure in the Yinma River and other areas of Jinshan Lake; if there are ridges on the north side blocking it, it may force the flood water that flows out of the river embankment to divert the route and bypass the location of Chenxi Paper to flow to the lower east coast lowlands.

However, the Chenyan Highway between Chenxi Paper and Siyan Township forms a gap through the ridge, and the shanty township is facing the gap, which is a certain danger.

Zhao Youlun was worried that Zhang Ke and his team would delay the preparations for the withdrawal of Chinese capital investment from Indonesia, but these words could not be said.

On July 15, at 4 o'clock in the morning, after coordinating with the Municipal Flood Control Command, Zhang Ke took a car back to the east coast again. Chenyan Road to the east was full of villagers evacuated from Siyan Township. The road was covered with military vehicles, civilian vehicles and pedestrians, and the treble horns that organized the evacuation order came clearly through the rain curtain; the paper mill could only retreat the evacuation gap between Siyan Township.

Dawn comes, heavy rain stops, and the east sky is filled with red light.

Although the rain stopped and the clouds were blooming here, the upstream of Yinma River, from Jinping County to Lingu in the southeast corner of Zhangzhou, showed no sign of the heavy rainstorm, which made the sound of the flood peak that had already passed to the southwest end of Jinping County more and more terrifying.

Standing on the muddy river embankment, the berth guard soldiers were wearing muddy and knocking wooden piles into the water, Jiagong River embankment. Zhang Ke looked at Zhai Danqing, who was wearing a paper female worker's uniform and was still sleeping all night. He stared at the river water that reflected the morning glow with a bright look, and said with a smile: "Is it very hard, right?"

"It's okay!" Zhai Danqing turned around and looked at the shanty towns in the distance and began to withdraw in an organized manner, saying, "I heard that the flood situation in Xinwu is also very serious. I want Luo Guiyuan to sit in his seat. I don't know if Xinwu can escape this disaster..."

Zhang Ke was not complacent at all. In addition to Xinwu, the number of victims officially announced in the flood disaster in 1998 exceeded 4,000.

The residents of the shanty town began to evacuate until the afternoon. Even the evacuation work of Siyan Township was basically complete. The military vehicles and propaganda vehicles from Qingwei gathered in the eastern section of Paper Factory Street, preparing to evacuate in the end. The flood control command also sent flood control troops into the gap in the ridge and was organizing vehicles to transport flood control materials to the gap, intending to build another temporary embankment there to add an insurance to Chenxi Paper.

The flood summit entered Jinshan Lake before nightfall. At 4 o'clock in the afternoon, he received a call from Zhao Youlun, asking him to go to the other side of the river to see the process of Siyan Township breaking the dike in Siyan Township. Zhang Ke was not interested in this kind of scene. The villagers of Siyan Township made sacrifices to ensure the safety of the dikes in other sections of the Yinma River. Although the government would properly resettle them afterwards, there were still great losses. The villagers with some industries would be destroyed, and the compensation they could get was extremely limited. However, when Zhao Youlun invited, Zhang Ke reluctantly agreed.

Zhang Ke, Zhai Danqing and others had not closed their eyes for more than 30 hours. When they sat in the car, they relaxed and soon fell asleep. When the car arrived at the east bank entrance of Jinshan Lake and entered the Yinma River, Zhang Ke woke Fu Jun up and opened his eyes. Zhai Danqing was sleeping comfortably on his shoulders, a little haggard.

Zhang Ke and Zhai Danqing got out of the car, looked at the reporter carrying a camera on the river bank, and grabbed his eyebrows and Zhai Danqing to the river bank. This place was facing the river bank in Siyan Township. The estuary was very wide, as if the Yinma River was opening its huge mouth to swallow Jinshan Lake. Zhou Jinyu then turned his back to Jinshan Lake to accept an interview with reporters.

Zhang Ke didn't want to capture it for the camera. He and Zhai Danqing stood far away and did not say hello to Zhao Youlun. The flood peak had already entered the waters of Jinshan Lake and absorbed the wide lake surface. The flood peak seemed to have completely weakened its power. The real pressure would take a while to form a flood peak to transmit to the lower reaches of Yinma River. At this time, breaking the dike in Siyan Township to discharge floods was to reduce the pressure on the downstream.

Looking through the telescope, the lake embankment on the south side of Siyan Township has cracked a gap. It seems that no one needs to deliberately blow up the embankment. The gap will become larger and larger, and the entire section of the lake embankment will collapse.

The sunset at dusk is extremely beautiful, and a cluster of white waves are pushing from far to near the lake. Zhai Danqing pointed to the arc-shaped white edge formed by the wave peak and asked, "Is that the wave line formed by the flood peak?"

Zhang Ke was not sure, and he really wanted to ask someone, but he heard a loud noise behind him. He looked back in horror. Just within the western view, the lake embankment in the protection of the new city area broke a hole. The surging lake water rushed towards the earth embankment behind the lake embankment...

Zhang Ke's face was pale, and there was a kind of sadness and broadness of returning to the sky. No one knew how many soldiers were standing on the lake embankment. From the perspective of his vision, he could see a military vehicle behind the lake embankment that instantly drowned out the surging lake water. The breach was rapidly collapsing. As long as the breach was formed, the huge impact of the tens of meters of reinforced concrete embankment gave the lake water. The 600-mile Jinshan Lake water poured backwards towards Jinshan City.

No one expected that there would be a problem on the west bank. Flood control materials and various advantageous resources of the engineering corps were accumulated on the west bank, just to ensure that the west bank was foolproof. The west bank of Yinma River and the northwest bank of Jinshan Lake was Jinshan City with a population of three million. No one expected that when he was preparing to blow up the east bank embankment to discharge floods, the west bank suddenly collapsed!

At this moment, hundreds of billions of tons of lake water swept towards Jinshan City, a population of three million.

Everyone around was shocked and lost their eyes. Zhou Jinyu and Zhao Youlun all looked pale, suddenly lost their voices, and were at a loss. The camera raised high was still taking pictures, photographing the moment when Jinshan Lake collapsed.

Zhai Danqing instinctively held Zhang Ke's arm tightly, hugged her in her arms, and silently stared at the breach of the lake embankment. Zhang Ke pinched Zhai Danqing's hand and saw that Zhou Jinyu, Zhao Youlun and other city leaders were suddenly at a loss.

"We must mobilize all the people who can be mobilized to build an earth dam on the east bank of Jiujiang River. We can use any tools, bulldozers, excavators, shovels, and hoes. We can call all the vehicles in the city that can be called, and we can't let the floods rush into the city..." Zhang Ke did not care about his personal grudges with Zhou Jinyu, and rushed to her and said loudly that he must make decisions immediately at this time. Zhou Jinyu is the secretary of the municipal party committee, so he can only wake her up first.

Zhou Jinyu suddenly came back to his senses, his eyes still a little confused. Zhao Youlun immediately understood Zhang Ke's intention: preventing floods from entering the city is the top priority. Since Zhou Jinyu was at a loss, he had to take responsibility and loudly ordered all military vehicles that could be called, propaganda vehicles to rescue residents who were in front of the flood as much as possible, invite water conservancy experts to the embankment, and immediately hold an emergency meeting on the embankment, and urgently discuss a plan to block water into the city.

Although Zhao Youlun felt that Zhang Ke’s proposal was correct, he could not panic. Experts had to decide the best plan. There were three million people in Kingsoft City. If there were another mistake, no matter how many people lost their heads, they could not make up for it.

Jiujiang River is a river surrounding the southeastern edge of Jinshan City. Building an earth dam on the side of Jiujiang River near the urban area can maximize the use of the Jiujiang River's impact of floods. Moreover, there is still a distance between Jiujiang River and the dam breaking, which can provide a certain buffering time.

The plan to block water into the city was soon initially formed. All motor vehicles were mobilized to send military and civilians to the west bank of the Yinma River to the west bank of Jiujiang River. The detailed plan can be continued to be improved during this period.

"We will go to the west bank of Jiujiang River, and the emergency command center is located there," Zhao Youlun waved his hand, saw Zhou Jinyu calm down, and said, "Secretary Zhou, are you asking you to go to the city flood control command center to preside over the overall situation? I am on the front line. Unless the flood washes me away, I will not retreat..."

On the Yinma River, along the Jinshan Lake, the exhausted soldiers and civilians were stunned for a moment when the lake embankment collapsed, and they were immediately dispatched to the west bank of Jiujiang River. There were not enough vehicles, and most people stepped on their legs and ran towards the west bank of Jiujiang River...
