.

The area has a long-term rainy weather. The three are 9-11. The Pearl River, Yangtze River, Huaihe River, Haihe River, Liaohe River, Songhua River Basin has a rainy day of up to 35-50 days. The maximum is 59 days in Guilin. During this period, heavy rain and heavy rain continued to occur. ‘'.

Caused a major national flood. The affected areas in the country reached 16 provinces. Among them, the disasters in Hunan, Hubei, Jiangxi, Zhejiang, Jiangsu, Shandong, Henan, etc. in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River and the Huaihe River Basin are the most severe. It is the most affected area and the worst disaster since the new century. Due to the huge flooding, the river dike dikes in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River are generally broken. The Jingjiang dikes and Shagouzi, 1. Zhusangong Dikes and others are broken. The main stream of the Yangtze River is from Shishou, Hubei Province to Nantong, Jiangsu Province.

Most of the Jianghan Plain, Dongting Lake District, Poyang Lake District, and Taihu Lake District were flooded. Wuhan City had been flooded for 10 days. Hubei, Hunan, Anhui and Anhui were surrounded by a vast ocean. The Beijing-Hanzhou Railway was suspended for a long time. The Jinpu Railway was interrupted for 54 days. According to statistics, the number of people affected by the Yangtze River Basin this year was more than 28.87 million, and 10,000 people died. The affected farmland was 377.3hm28. It is estimated that 584 million yuan.

Under the severe situation, Zhao Gang could only hand over the military construction matter to Zhan Tianyou and personally commanded it. Under Zhao Gang's command, the flood control command was quickly established and implemented a military management system. Heads at all levels were arrested. Whoever had an accident would be removed. The army was mobilized, and the first batch of 500,000 troops rushed to the front line. There were no machine guns, cannons, ships and tanks there, and they had to face the more fierce enemy, floods that were surging!

In Zhao Gang's view, the most urgent thing now is the "front line" of the Yangtze River. In order to maintain the front, China's largest military mobilization since World War I began.

On October 7, 1903, the main dike of the Jiujiang section of the Yangtze River broke. Less than 30 minutes later, Zhao Gang decided to urgently mobilize his troops to the front line of flood control and rescue. He immediately issued an order requiring the troops designated to participate in flood control and rescue to execute the order unconditionally within 2 hours after receiving the order and quickly head to the front line.

On the Thousand Mile Railway Line, everything makes way for the troops transporting troops. On October 8th, Wuhan was Liuxiang, and a military train entered the Jiangan West Station within less than 10 minutes, with the traffic density being rare. Any military operation must be famous, and the floods in the Yangtze River Basin are dangerous. Especially the highest flood level in history, it naturally becomes the reason for organizing this military operation.

Therefore, in 1903, the Chinese military underwent the first mobilization. According to statistics, the Guangzhou Military Region, Jinan Military Region, Nanjing Military Region, Beijing Military Region, Shenyang Military Region, navy, police units, and military colleges along the river and lake. There were more than 10 armies in total, and 300 officers and soldiers were involved in flood control and rescue, dispatching a total of 12 million officers and soldiers, and organizing more than 15 million militia and reserve personnel.

The senior commanders on the front line of flood control include the commander of the Shenyang Military Region, the commander and political commissar of the Guangzhou Military Region, the commander and political commissar of the Nanjing Military Region, the political commissar of the Jinan Military Region, the commander and political commissar of the armed police force, the commander and political commissar of the air force, the commander and commander of the navy, and more than 5,000 division-level cadres.

The highest commander was the Marshal. These figures show that the total number of troops used to fight floods and rescue during the summer and autumn of 1903 actually exceeded the total number of People's Liberation Army in World War I, and also exceeded the number of people in previous wars. In the face of the vast white water, a yellow-green iron army fought bravely, separating the water from the people and from the god of death.

"What is the military mission?"

"Protect the people and defend sovereignty!"

The Chinese army gave this answer a realistic reflection.

Ma Xiaolu is an ordinary soldier in the Chenyang Military Region. After taking the train for two days and one night, she came to Wuhan and started to rescue the Jiujiang area. It has been five days today. His condition is not good. He is soaked all over, and his feet are open, and he is soaked in water. He also has a low fever. He has always been as strong as a cow and has fought for three or four days. When he is tired, he will find a place behind the dam and fall asleep with mud and water.

Maybe the next moment is when the embankment is broken. Ma Xiaolu thought so. Before he came, the embankment was already very close to the water surface, but there was still five or six feet away. After five days, Ma Xiaolu found that the embankment was closer to the water surface, only three feet away, and the distance was still shortening.

As long as it rains, it will be enough, and it will continue to rain. However, it is becoming increasingly difficult to strengthen the embankment and raise the embankment. At first, it is still good, with enough sacks and soil. Now the soil needs to be dug three miles away, and rags have appeared in sacks. The rice I ate has turned into dry and cold steamed buns.

However, Ma Xiaolu was not discouraged because he was a member of the Flying Tiger Regiment. As the oldest member of the Pingko Army, the Flying Tiger Regiment must win every battle and defend every time. Even God cannot capture the position he has defended! Ma Xiaolu doesn't need to look at it, but he knows that all the personnel of his regiment are working hard.

Even the dozens of brothers who were swept away by the water a few days ago, Ma Xiaolu thought that they were not leaving. They were in the sky, holding hands, shoulder to shoulder, and cheering themselves on. Thinking of this, Ma Xiaolu's eyes

Soon the raindrops washed away the precious tears, and Ma Xiaolu continued to carry them.

This time, Ma Xiaolu did not carry a 120 sandbag and poured heavily into the mud and water. Someone immediately helped him up and then forced him down. In a trance, Ma Xiaolu saw his comrades:

Liu Tianping, the squad leader of the squad, a chubby guy, a heavy and energetic hand, and the heavy machine gun was so good that he could hit the drum beats. He flew fifty shots in a shuttle and divided them into four or five piles. One person could suppress a platoon of enemies. In the Battle of Vladivostok, one person killed more than 30 Russians.

He was swept away by the waves. When the waves came, the people on the dam were held tightly. However, Liu Tianping couldn't hold it. He could usually carry more than 90 kilograms of machine guns on the ground. He couldn't hold his arm! Ma Xiaolu knew that Liu Tianping was too tired. He carried two sandbags at a time. Even the weight of 240 kilograms, even an iron man could not stand it!

Huang Weijun, the company commander, likes to ride horses. However, he is not good at equestrianism. He has been wiped out several times. But this cannot be blamed for this. The bacterial species have too high requirements for cavalry. Even the Mongols have a horse-backed nation. It is difficult for them to become cavalry.

Corps Huang likes to drink, but they cannot drink it in the army, so they have to drink tea to satisfy their cravings. If there are too many teas, they will get drunk, so they will drink it. The soldiers' allowance is high, so he only leaves one yuan a month. The rest are transferred to his home. I heard that many people have already matched him. I also heard that the company commander fell in love with his daughter from a family of men and sent a dowry to prepare to get married at the end of the year.

No more...

There are many people, Ma Tianmeng... Zhao Sitian... Lu Heigou

In a white mist, Ma Xiaolu lost consciousness. Then, she was in a daze until one day. Ma Xiaolu finally opened her eyes and looked up. She was lying on the hospital bed. A nurse was looking at him in surprise.

"He woke up, woke up!"

Ma Xiaolu looked at the nurse's smiling face, not knowing what happened, before he lost consciousness, he saw a star.

When he woke up here, Ma Xiaolu knew that he had read it wrong before. The general took the lead and carried three stars on his shoulders, General! Behind him were a group of generals. Ma Xiaolu looked at the general, for some reason, but she felt a sense of fear in her heart. He was not a fool. As an ordinary soldier, he would never be treated like this, so the answer to the question was very clear.

"General. Can you tell me how my comrades are doing?"

Ma Xiaolu looked at the general, hoping to see a good answer. But he was soon disappointed. The general's face looked painful. He took off his military cap and said the answer word by word:

"Ma Xiaolu, shortly after you got down the dike, Jiujiang collapsed, and most of the more than 90,000 officers and soldiers online disappeared! So far, you are the only one in your regiment!"

"General, what are you saying, no!! You are talking nonsense. I saw them yesterday. We saved the embankment. Chief Coptis Coptis said to me personally, "You are lying!"

Ma Xiaolu suddenly covered the quilt on her head, and the crying sounds immediately came out of the quilt, suppressed and heart-wrenching, and the generals were speechless. At this time, the door quietly opened, and walked in alone, immediately divided the officials to both sides, and gave him a way out. The general took a step back and wanted to come to this military salute.

"Ma Xiaolu!"

Hearing this order, Ma Xiaolu was almost on the same condition as launching, her legs were put together and she returned a military salute. Although it was on the hospital bed, the military salute was still quite standard.

"arrive"

"Catch the group flag!"

"yes!"

"Reciting the League History"

………….

"Ma Xiaolu, are you afraid of death?"

"Not afraid of death!"

"Okay, I'll give you this dough flag. Can you keep this spirit and pass on the fire of the Flying Tiger Group?"

"Make sure to complete the task!"

Ma Xiaolu was extremely excited, wiped her tears, took the dough flag, and felt that his brothers gathered in the sky and saluted him solemnly. At this time, Ma Xiaolu noticed that the person opposite was very young, with an ordinary military uniform without any epaulette, could indicate his identity. However, the generals standing beside him gave the best annotation.

"You are..." This gave him great encouragement.

"Do it well, we are all soldiers of the people!"

This person is the Chinese emperor Zhao Gang. This is the fifth time he has handed over the regiment flag to some people. During the flood fighting and rescue process, nearly ten regiments were severely hit and almost completely destroyed by the flood, which makes Zhao Gang extremely distressed. Every time he sees a dough flag, Zhao Gang feels heartbroken for a long time. These teams are all made from old teams. Once they are completely destroyed, it is difficult to restore to their original level.

German Chief of Staff Rudendolf is on a friendly visit to China at this time. He saw it with his own eyes

The performance of the army is more than twenty years later, his memoirs shows that the Chinese army gave him a deep impression.

"In 1903, China suffered a great flood.: Mobilized the Chinese army and began rescue work. The emperor's writings took an airship along the Yangtze River, and I was also lucky to accompany me. At a place where the breaking point in Changsha, I could clearly see through a telescope that the Chinese army, the entire battalion, and the entire team ran to the river bank, carrying sacks, probably it was soil.

They didn't tell which one was the regiment commander or the soldier. They all went barefoot. Later, landslides were discovered in this place, and I saw the most exciting and shocking scene of this century: rows of soldiers and officers jumped into the water, holding hands, and could see clearly from the picture sent back from the telescope.

Those soldiers were flooded by huge waves, and later I learned that it was China's most elite unit, the old unit I once led by Pangkok Army Flying Tiger Regiment. I am proud of having such subordinates. Compared with the Chinese army, although the Chinese army is stronger than the Chinese army in all aspects, in terms of spirit, I can only regret that no one can compare to the spirit of the Chinese army!

After returning to China, newspapers kept reporting on the situation in China. Some photos published abroad were published. The military department said it would delete some of them, and I couldn't stop them. But that day I saw with my own eyes that a lieutenant general, standing in the waist-length water, commanding the soldiers in his area. He used rows of human walls to block the flood. This is the Chinese army!

Only then did I realize that the Chinese army is not like the French and Italian armies. It lacks organization, almost does not obey orders, and everyone loves money like life, etc. It does not exist in the dictionary of Chinese soldiers. In a flood with high-speed flow, blocking the water flow with its body will almost kill people. This is no different from fighting, and it is even more cruel than war. But until the end of the throne, the Chinese army remained resolutely unmoved. After the breakup, I even thought that when the flood receded, the soldiers and generals would still be on their posts and prepare to fight the storm next time.

At first I didn't understand what His Majesty the Emperor meant, but later I really understood what His Majesty meant. It seems that China used smokeless means to prove it to us and warn us. They were invincible troops, and other troops were timid in the face of death and were defeated on a large scale. But these Chinese troops dared to use their bodies to block the flood. We defeated the French, but if we faced the Chinese army, then maybe, I don't want to assume anything, and the result was certain.

It is certain that China is behind us, but as long as their soldiers are there, our emperor will clamor forever. I understand in my heart that fighting with such an army is really a madman. Most of the troops that China participate in the fight against the flood are elite troops, Pinggang Army and Pinglu Army. This time it really shows that the Chinese army is mobilizing, cooperating, and fighting transformation. The word "Yellow Peril" is no longer suitable for this world, and perhaps the Chinese are more suitable for ruling this world.

Ludendorff's statement is correct in one aspect. In the face of this flood, when most of the roads leading to the disaster areas were washed away, the Chinese army showed great energy. This is also due to the strong national strength and enthusiastic people - this flood fighting struggle has obtained evidence, and the people's war is the treasure of victory.

In this unprecedented "war" between people and natural disasters, the vast number of flood-fighting officers and soldiers and people in the disaster-stricken areas fought life and death with their steel-like will, united spirit and feat of swallowing mountains and rivers, and finally defeated the flood.

In this "war" without gunpowder, Guangzhou, Jinan, Nanjing, Beijing, Shenyang Military Region, Air Force, Navy, Second Artillery, Armed Police Force and Military Academy, nearly 100 divisions, hundreds of thousands of troops, and 500 reserve militias were put into flood control and rescue. It is the military operation that the Chinese army has used the most troops to resist natural disasters since the founding of the People's Republic of China.

In the past, there was never such a rapid assembly of the Chinese army on such a large scale. This is not only a test of the combat effectiveness of the Chinese army, but also the most powerful test of China's wartime mobilization system and China's comprehensive national strength. The feat of 03 countries' mobilization to fight floods and disaster relief will be recorded in history, and its successful experience has very important inspiration for strengthening China's wartime mobilization work.

For example, in 1800, France used to fight against Italy, and by the time when the troops of the warring countries completed their tasks was reduced to 5 days. The Chinese army's response this time surprised the world. It was only 5 hours. Fifteen divisions set out the next day and advanced 200 kilometers with the incomplete railway. What is the speed!

This speed caused uneasiness among Western countries. Countries realized the gap with the Chinese army and began to step up their arms to avoid failure in future wars. An army arms race that could not see the smoke of gunpowder was about to begin again, and the heads of state not only began to lament their wallets.

However, as a global person, Zhao Gang must see that compared with the losses suffered by the army, the losses suffered by the people are even heavier! The big break in the Jiujiang section must also be found out, and the dead people must be explained and given to the soldiers who applied it.
