Three hundred and twentieth chapters plumbing

Chapter 324 Guan Yong

The staff officers around Hu Zhengang were surprised after hearing this, thinking that Commander Hu had always been talking about the same thing, and that such extraordinary moments would require direct transfer of materials from the local area, so why bother with the young man in front of him to discuss with him. Although the three large ships he transferred played a decisive role in blocking the junction, he was a civilian after all. Could it be that he had a different background?

Just as everyone was randomly guessing Yang Xing's identity, Yang Xing replied: "This is fine. As long as the soldiers' personal safety is guaranteed, you can handle these three ships at will. However, it is best to clean the coal ships. My colleague's face proves that the environment is not good. As for those supplies, I have arranged to transport them here, but now all over the country are rescued and flood control, and road transportation is not guaranteed. Many of my convoys are blocked on the road. I just called, see if a site can be opened later, and I transported things from the air. As for transporting large machinery to the embankment, it is only possible to rely on the flying general." He raised his head to look at the sky, but did not notice the surprised gazes of people around him.

"There is another situation that you should pay attention to. The physical condition of these frontline soldiers is already very poor. Don't get the medal. Instead, they fell ill due to excessive work and long-term sun and water soaking. Then we are so sorry for these heroes. Fifth brother, please go back and discuss with Brother Wang and ask his Yunhai Pharmaceutical to send a batch of medicines to come here, mainly for the treatment of sun protection, skin diseases, headaches and fever. In addition, Commander Hu, I hope you notify the medical staff to closely monitor the physical condition of the soldiers to prevent them from being injured due to excessive work. I think the citizens of Jiujiang are very enthusiastic about working in the army, and see if they can do so.

Ask the citizens nearby to help make a batch of shoulder pads. They look like thick mats used to carry bricks on the construction site, completely covering their necks and shoulders. These soldiers have to carry heavy things every day, and the wind and sun are also exposed to the sun. You see, many of them have started to peel off from their shoulders to their backs." Yang Xing said with a heartache while gesturing the style of cotton pads. Everyone around was stunned. Obviously, everyone had missed this small detail. They recovered from the shock that Yang Xing could mobilize the plane to transport materials casually. They were even more moved by Yang Xing's sincere consideration for the soldiers.

But flood control is not a movie, and it is not weakened because everyone successfully sank a large ship to block the breach. After this breach on August 7, the problems accumulated by the Jiujiang Dike for many years suddenly broke out, and the entire dike became a big sieve and leaked everywhere. There were many small-scale collapse accidents along the dike, and the secondary disaster warnings caused by the depression in the rear were continuous, causing the residents along the dike to be in a hurry. The soldiers who had just blocked the breach were not spared and went to the new battle. Yang Xing and his bodyguards were all in a hurry.

Cha Guoqiang and his men joined in and formed a voluntary rescue team to investigate dangers everywhere and find out small leaks. After a few days, although he wanted to vomit when eating a boxed lunch, he didn't even fall asleep. It was far less hard than the soldiers fighting on the dam. However, Yang Xing's skin was much tanned and his figure was thinner. But everyone thought that every day was very meaningful. Cha Guoqiang even joked that this was a free weight loss method. He and Yang Xing used to be lazy to eat and do what the fat accumulated. Is it a big part of it?

On the morning of the fourth day after the breach, Yang Xing got up from the bed. He felt sore and exhausted all over. His cell phone suddenly rang. After answering the phone, he immediately smiled happily and told everyone to hurry to the embankment. He felt a violent tremor on the floor of the guesthouse under his feet. He was surprised that there was another earthquake, and he heard people shouting like tsunamis not far from the roads outside, "Not good! The traffic is coming!" The joy that just rose in Yang Xing's heart was washed away, and big trouble came!

As the name suggests, "pipe surge" means that when the flood season comes, people desperately increase the reinforcement of the dam to resist the rising water level. If the water is far more than usual, it will put huge pressure on the land around the river. Some floods will penetrate along the weak points at the foot of the dam. Once a pipe passing through the water will be opened, it will rush out from the weak points on the ground like a water pipe bursting, forming a large amount of water rush under huge pressure. Once this situation is formed,

The danger is no less than a breach. In fact, over the past month, the local government of Jiujiang has organized a large number of militias and the masses have gone to the embankment to form a patrol team. The main responsibility is to repeatedly patrol the dam on both sides of the embankment to see if there is any water outlet point that may lead to a breach of the pipe inflow. Unexpectedly, after blocking hundreds of dangerous water outlet points, the pipe inflow area actually extended to the city. Now it has suddenly erupted, which has left the unprepared citizens in the city at a loss.

Yang Xing immediately judged that they had no time to rescue the embankment. After the rescue in the past few days, everyone understood that in the face of the flood, they raced against time. Everyone picked up their clothes and ran out while wearing them. The place where the pipe surge occurred was an old factory, for fear that the flood would destroy the warehouse with chemicals, which would likely cause an explosion! When they ran to the place, the scene was full of people and chaos. Yang Xing and the others did not be polite to the on-site commanders. They immediately used Wu Gangqiang and their skills to direct the masses to separate quietly and orderly. Yang Xing squeezed to the front of the crowd to observe the water situation carefully. He saw that the workshop room where the chemical factory originally installed the water pump was cracked.

A large hole with a diameter of three or four meters, the turbid mud fountain was like a continuous stream of turbulent mud water from the ground, and the surroundings were washed into a water country by heavy water. The main frame of the water pump workshop made of red bricks was shaking, and it was obvious that even the foundation had been loose. The entire workshop was obviously at risk of collapse at any time. At this time, many people jumped into the water and tried their best to get close to the leak point. However, the water spray was very fierce, and many people were washed away without standing firmly. It was not that they had many safety ropes tied to them and were held tightly by the crowds around them, but they were afraid that people would be washed directly onto the road.

The soldiers in a unit that came to hear the news also tried several times, but the white flood like a rebellious beast was about to overturn all the people who wanted to ride on it. The officers and soldiers tried several times but returned in vain. Yang Xing saw it in his eyes, and saw more and more people gathering, but they were all helpless. He happened to see the lieutenant who helped Commander Hu pass the message last time was also in the crowd, and walked up to pat him. The lieutenant only saw Yang Xing. He had known that the young man in front of him was extraordinary, and even Commander Hu was polite when he saw him, and subconsciously saluted him.

When he saluted the crowd around him, his eyes were naturally different. He thought that the young man who was very dark was a high-ranking official in the army. Yang Xing wanted this effect and wanted to take the command of the entire scene. He deliberately said to the lieutenant seriously: "Comrade lieutenant, I have a few people here who know how to work. I want them to go into the water to touch the situation. Do you think it's okay?" This sentence sounded like more orders than consultation. Before the lieutenant could react, he waved his hand, and Wu Gangqiang, who had been waiting for a long time, and three other martial arts masters, jumped into the water.

Their movements were fast, and the people around him exclaimed. Before the screams stopped, Wu Gangqiang and others stood in the water and walked towards the torrent. Everyone was amazed. Those who were interested noticed that Wu Gangqiang and others were not swinging left and right in the water like the people before, but used the Thousand-Kim Pendant in Tai Chi to firmly grasp the ground. Although they were moving slowly, it was difficult to be knocked down. The four of them also formed a circle, slowly turning their bodies while walking, grinding the direction of the water flow that was rushed in straight lines like a millstone.

"Tai Chi Formation Diagram!" The lieutenant couldn't help but blurt out. Yang Xingman looked at him with interest, thinking that there was indeed a martial arts master in the army. The lieutenant called Wu Gangqiang's head kung fu, at least a trainer. Seeing that Yang Xing was looking at him, the lieutenant felt embarrassed to touch his head and said, "My family is practicing martial arts long fist, but it is not as good as the skill of these masters. I can't stand in this water."

The four of them walked steadily to the pipe rush pit in the torrent. The water flow was washed away, and the surrounding area collapsed violently, and the water level had risen to the point above their heads. At this time, Wu Gangqiang exhaled, grabbed a big stone with dozens of kilograms beside him, and suddenly disappeared in the water. Everyone's hearts were hanging in their throats. Although they knew that he was diving into the water to touch the situation, his companions came ashore for a long time but didn't see him coming out, for fear that he would not drown. With a sound of noise, Wu Gangqiang held the big stone step by step.

Walking out of the water, this wonderful scene immediately caused applause to the scene. Wu Gangqiang didn't have time to wipe away the wet water all over, so he walked straight to Yang Xing and the others: "I touched it, it was very wide and deep, and it would definitely not be blocked by the sandbag alone." The lieutenant frowned. Since this could only be blocked with large construction machinery. As a soldier, he immediately made a quick decision and asked his subordinates to take the lead and quickly evacuate the surrounding people, and proposed to remove the walls of the chemical factory's water pump workshop and clear the open space as a mechanical operation area.

After a while, several high-power cranes and forklifts arrived, and the situation was slightly controlled. Yang Xing and the others also helped the soldiers build sandbags around the rushing area to build a circle of embankments to prevent the water accumulation area from expanding. Just as the water situation became smaller, everyone thought the crisis was lifted, and a scream was heard. The mechanism of the water pump workshop finally could not bear the foundation being continuously hollowed out and fell down. A stream of water column as high as several meters was sprayed out from the foundation of the fallen factory. It turned out that the location of the pipe surge was not one place but two places!

The two streams of water quickly converged, and the first pipe rush point that had been almost blocked became increasingly large, and it rushed out a huge hole in the embankment that Yang Xing and the others had just built. Yang Xing and several people fell into the water, causing exclamations around him! Finally, Wu Gangqiang and others were very good at it. As soon as they fell into the water, Wu Gangqiang grabbed the exposed steel bars of the collapsed factory building and kept his hands bleeding from the iron branches on it, and finally pulled everyone away. The people and officers and soldiers on the side immediately went into the water to save people. After working for a long time, they pulled everyone up, and finally there were no casualties.
