Chapter 322: Unite

When the first morning glow in the east shone brightly on the sky, Yang Xing wiped the sweat from his head and breathed a sigh of relief. After a night of emergency repairs, this temporary embankment, which consisted mainly of sandbags, gravel and even mixed materials such as traffic isolation piers, finally played a huge role, barely blocking the flood that surged after the main embankment broke, and preventing the Jiujiang city behind him from being flooded. It should have long been turned into a city in the water town of Zeguo. The Binjiang Avenue leading to the embankment can still be allowed to

Vehicles pass by, a large number of rescue materials were transported to the construction site at the breach of the embankment in a timely manner, ensuring that the breach collapsed before sunrise was effectively controlled and the breach scope was not allowed to continue to expand. However, the water flow at the breach was turbulent, and all nearby civilian construction facilities were washed away, and large construction machinery could not be transported to the embankment for a while. The flood control command directly moved the barracks to the nearest breach, and mobilized all manpower to the near breach and obeyed the orders to block the breach with all efforts.

Yang Xing didn't know these situations at this time, and only Yu Aojun was left beside him, and even Wu Gangqiang was sent to carry sandbags by him. At this time, a second lieutenant officer ran over and looked at Yang Xing's red-eyed command technicians to install the mobile dike. He saluted him with a standard military salute and said, "You are Mr. Yang, I came from the dike in front. I heard that you were busy all night here last night to help everyone install these mobile dikes. Thank you very much. Our commander made a special trip to invite you, and it should be a question for you to ask you about engineering issues." Yang Xing laughed silently when he heard this. The second lieutenant obviously mistakenly regarded himself as an engineer.

This should be because he misunderstood the reason why Commander Hu sent people to find him. Yang Xing commanded here because the mobile dike used to prevent swells on the temporary dike is a new product developed by Xingchen Manufacturing for this flood control. The main body is made of fiberglass plate, which is light and convenient, flexible in loading and unloading, and is easy to move. It can greatly reduce manpower when used for flood control. There is no need for a lot of people to move sandbags to increase and reinforce the dike. It is precisely because of the new equipment that many flood control military and civilians have not received assembly training, and they are at a loss when they are dismantled into pieces of mobile dikes. Last night, many technicians from Yang Xing and Xingchen Manufacturing were instructed to operate and assemble the mobile dikes while joining the flood control team. They help when there is any danger, and they don’t have a rest all night. Now Yang Xing heard that Commander Hu must have something important to him, so he didn’t ask too much and ordered Wu Gangqiang and Yu Aojun to go with him.

Several people rushed to the black gaz-47 off-road vehicle parked under the temporary embankment. Yang Xing signaled the lieutenant to take the bus to the levee with them. The lieutenant was a little embarrassed and kindly reminded him that the road between the temporary embankment and the main embankment had been destroyed. He waded over by boat, otherwise he would have to go around a large circle and walk the riverside highway, but it must be very congested. Yang Xing waved his hand and said with great momentum: "Your commander asked you to come, there must be something important to do. The military situation is like fire, we can't delay it. Let's take the nearest route!" Before the lieutenant could react, the gaz-47 off-road vehicle had already roared and rushed into the water, and did not sink and floated directly on the water surface to break through the waves.

The second lieutenant could not speak for a moment. Unexpectedly, this domineering black off-road vehicle was an amphibious vehicle! He looked at the luxurious interior of the car, and the tall and silent bodyguards and beautiful female assistants beside Yang Xing, and then he realized that the young man in front of him was probably not as simple as a engineer. He just talked about his commander's casual tone and strong words and deeds, and could tell that he was a person who had been in a high position for a long time. He thought that Yang Xing was so young and noble, wasn't the young man of a big man? Unexpectedly, such a person would go to the front line to fight the flood himself. He shook his head and suddenly thought that the commander, like an ordinary soldier, jumped into the breach and formed a wall to block the flood discharged. He thought that everyone was equal in the face of natural disasters!

The gaz-47 off-road vehicle was not moving fast on the water surface. The breach was very sudden last night. Although the temporary embankment blocked most of the flood, the low-lying area at the foot of the dam of Jiujiang City was still flooded. A large number of people did not evacuate in time and were still trapped in the water. They saw many soldiers and armed police on the water, leaving only their trousers left, jumping into the water, shoulders and hands pulling, and bringing many people calling for help to a safe place. This gaz-47 off-road vehicle

The car showed its amphibious military equipment skills at this time. It traveled through mountains and rivers and was able to reach almost any dangerous place. During this period, they turned around many times to help save people and transfer trapped people. Many officers and soldiers looked at the ability of this amphibious black car. The second lieutenant remembered that the commander had obtained the same car yesterday. Could it be that it was also given by the young man in front of him? He was really rich and powerful.

On the car, Yang Xing guessed the reason why Hu Zhengang invited him to go there from the lieutenant. He must have wanted to see when his big ship would come. By phone, Cha Guoqiang told Yang Xing that he had found three big ships and was rushing to Jiujiang. Yang Xing asked him to find a place to fill the ship first. The matter was urgent and immediately sank the ship as soon as it arrived! The ship could not come for a while, so it was useless to be anxious. He asked in the car whether there was any danger after the breaking last night. The lieutenant and Yu Aojun roughly described several other dangers last night based on their own situation.

Last night, major dangers also occurred in several other places near Jiujiang. Since the 1980s, no major floods have occurred in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River for a long time. The local people's flood control awareness has gradually weakened. They built houses and settled down in many areas near the river, including those designated as flood discharge areas. As soon as the peak of the flood came, their homes were destroyed first.

Last night, in addition to the dam burst, at least three major dangers occurred, causing several villages to be surrounded by floods, and the lives of more than 100,000 people were threatened. The command center immediately dispatched provincial forces to rescue. A group of officers and soldiers who had just arrived in Jiujiang got off the train and rushed to participate in the rescue without even taking a sip of water. When Yang Xing and the others were on the dam, they saw from time to time that some officers and soldiers wearing life jackets rushed to the dam, while others ran down the dam. Obviously, blocking the dam burst and rescuing nearby people was a difficult problem in front of the flood control headquarters. How to coordinate and dispatch good personnel is the top priority.

As soon as Yang Xing and the others entered the command center, they were pulled by Hu Zhengang and asked when the big ships he had arrived. Yang Xing saw that the tall and thin old man who had just met yesterday seemed to have become more than a teenager overnight, and most of his body was still wet. It was obvious that the second lieutenant said that he and his subordinates jumped down to form a wall to block the water. He found Yang Xing without changing his clothes. Seeing that his eyes were black and his eyes were full of anxiety, he obviously had not yet reached a good method of blocking the water. As the commander-in-chief, he went into the water to block the broken door, and worked hard all night long. Yang Xing only felt a wet look in his eyes. He wanted to explain that the big ship had to pressurize the cabin upstream and so that he could not say anything. He stood attentive to a military salute and said, "Please rest assured, the big ship must arrive this morning, if there is any negligence in military law!"

Yang Xing and Commander Hu came out of the command center and came to the breach scene to wait for the boat to appear together. The scene in front of him deeply shocked him. The breach was like the legendary monster Taotie opened his mouth, and the two sides of the broken embankment were like the fangs on its big mouth. The surging flood caused huge waves several meters high to slap fiercely on both sides of the breach. The endless crowd kept pushing bags of sandbags and iron cages filled with stones down the breach, but Taotie would never be full, and these things disappeared as soon as they fell into the mouth. Yang Xing and the others saw with their own eyes pushing large trucks weighing several tons or even whole train strips down the breach. The trucks swirled on the water surface and drifted with the flow. A few bubbles appeared in the train strips and disappeared. It was really hard to stop!

In such a crisis situation, in order not to let the flood rush into Jiujiang City, many officers and soldiers risked their lives and yelled their horns and jumped into the water, forming a wall of humans to block the flood. Yang Xing saw with his own eyes that many young soldiers, who were only seventeen or eighteen years old, stood firmly in the flood. Some soldiers could not support themselves and sat down, and the whole row of people followed him in the water. Even so, they still did not retreat and supported each other with the gravity of each other's body. The turbid mud and water immediately dyed them into mud people. The flood rushed them so hard that they could not even open their eyes, but none of them shouted for help. Many people around were ready to rub their hands. Once they found that their comrades could not support them, someone would immediately jump down to take over. The officers who were second lieutenants, lieutenants, and majors were often the first to jump in.

Seeing this scene of unity, Yang Xing felt that tears that had been enduring for a long time in his eyes finally remained. Commander Hu on the side wiped the tears and said in pain: "What a great soldier! When the punching last night, more than a dozen soldiers patrolling the embankment jumped down to form a human wall as soon as possible, but the water was too big, so they washed them all away. I just got the news and found their bodies, but they were still in the posture of forming a human wall. When I pulled them together, I couldn't even separate them!"

There was a heat surging in Yang Xing's heart. Natural disasters in China have been constantly rising, but the luck of civilization has always been endless, becoming a miracle of ancient countries in the world. It was not the kings, princes, generals and ministers who maintained the fortune of the country, but the millions of ordinary people in front of him. Especially the nameless people in front of him, their will and bodies form the backbone of China. With these most lovely people, what kind of natural disasters cannot be overcome?

The people around were not idle either. They used logs, scaffolding, steel pipes and other supplies to build piles and embankments around the Great Wall of Flesh and Blood, building a skeleton that blocked the broken mouth. Yang Xing was so excited that he pulled Wu Gangqiang and said, "Let's go and help too!" He handed the phone to Yu Aojun to pay attention to Cha Guoqiang and the others. After saying that, he turned around and walked down the embankment. Yu Aojun shouted to stop him, but was pulled by Hu Zhengang: "He is a man, don't stop him." Yu Aojun watched Yang Xing's unmagnanimous figure leave, and a heat current rushed into his eyes. He felt that after training, her moodless heart defense seemed to break a big mouth, and tears flowed in a blink of an eye. When Yang Xing struggled to carry the big log onto the embankment, before he could take a breath, he heard a warm shout erupting from the embankment: "Look, the ship is here, what a big boat!"
