  Very Secretary - Chapter 594 Evacuation

  The hardest-hit area in Binjiang is Xiashui County. As the name suggests, the geographical location of the county can be seen from the name. The terrain is very low. Binjiang Municipal Party Committee and Municipal Policy attaches great importance to this, increasing investment in water conservancy construction in Xiashui County year by year. Since there have been no serious floods in recent years Disasters, so the water conservancy projects built have not been severely tested to a certain extent. Unexpectedly, this year encountered a catastrophic flood once in a century, and the entire Xiashui County was plunged into a vast ocean under the heavy rain for several days.

It has been raining continuously for more than a week. In the past few days, it has been raining heavily and lightly, and there is no sign of it stopping, which adds a lot of difficulty to the rescue work. Lu Jianhong and Pang Xiaoshun, deputy director of the Public Security Bureau, are on the front line. Many houses were submerged in the flood, and Lu Jianhong's heart was bleeding. Fortunately, the county party committee and county government activated the emergency plan at the beginning of the flood season, so there were few casualties, but even so, during the evacuation , or someone is drowning. Seeing that the rain is not going to stop, everyone's anxiety can be imagined. If this continues, the loss of the entire Xiaguan County is unpredictable.

At this time, the loss of property seemed much lighter in front of life. Lu Jianhong originally went back after delivering the supplies, but when he heard that there were four or five villages in the lower reaches of Xiaguan County who were reluctant to leave their property and fertile land and refused to evacuate , he decided to stay and accompany the working group to do ideological work. After reporting to Vice Governor Gao Fuhai, Gao Fuhai asked Governor Zhou Qifeng for instructions, got Zhou Qifeng's approval, and instructed that all personnel must be evacuated that night.

  After inquiring about the Water Conservancy Bureau of Binjiang City, Lu Jianhong was very anxious. According to the report from the director of the Water Conservancy Bureau, if it rained for two more days, the flood control dam would burst, and the downstream villages would be plunged into raging floods. The situation here is very critical. Those villages sit on the mountain. Once a large-scale mudslide occurs, the village will cease to exist before the dam bursts.

Time is life. Seeing that the rain is not slowing down, one more minute of delay will be more dangerous. At this time, the water conservancy director rushed to report that the water level is still rising sharply. If the flood is not released before tomorrow morning, the dam collapse is inevitable. , and the rising water level in the upstream also poses a serious threat, and the water in many places has reached the second floor.

  Xiaguan County Party Committee and County Government asked Liu Xiang, who was in charge of the command, and Liu Xiang also secretly cursed that God was short-sighted, but this was not the time to complain, and the severe situation forced him to make a decision. It was unrealistic to hold a meeting to discuss. After a brief discussion with Lu Jianhong, they reached a unanimous decision to open the floodgates. With such a decision, Liu Xiang made a report to Yu Bin, Secretary of the Municipal Party Committee, and Yu Bin reported the bad situation to the Provincial Party Committee and the Provincial Government. After getting approval, he gave Liu Xiang a reply.

  Putting down the phone, Liu Xiang immediately summoned all the members of the evacuation working group and asked them to do one last job. By 3:00 pm, if the people still hadn't evacuated, they would be forcibly evacuated. The time for flood discharge is set at 3:00 in the morning, which is already the bottom line of the final time. If it is later, the consequences will be disastrous.

   Lu Jianhong was worried about the safety of the personnel, so he rejected Liu Xiang's offer to keep him, and insisted on going with the working group.

  As the leader of the propaganda group, Gao Lan also asked to advance and retreat with the people.

  This is not the time to be hypocritical, Liu Xiang wants the two to be careful, and specifically confesses to Pang Xiaoshun that he will protect the lives of the provincial leaders at all costs.

  After Lu Jianhong and others set off, Liu Xiang organized all the police forces from the public security, traffic police, and fire departments to stand ready and set off on time at two o'clock. He took all means and measures to ensure that all personnel were evacuated before the flood was released. In addition, the logistics department was specially arranged to make room for placement. Everything is already in place.

Bypassing the dam, the working group went down on foot, and soon saw several villages downstream. The party secretary of the township, Lao Ma, and the head of the township were doing their best to persuade them, but the people were completely unmoved and chattered. Tongue said.

   "This is our home, where we live, why should we go?"

   "If we don't leave, we will die in our own home."

  …

  Although the rain was heavy, facing the people's incomprehension, the people's attachment to the family and the serious lack of understanding of the current situation, every staff member got angry.

Seeing the complexity of the situation, Lu Jianhong stepped forward, walked to the front, and proclaimed loudly, "Folks, please be quiet and listen to me. I know you are reluctant to give birth to your home, and some even I have lived here all my life and have deep feelings. However, it has been raining for so long. According to the report of the Meteorological Bureau, the rain will last for at least another week, and it has reached the point of no delay. Everyone should know that the water level in the upper reaches has reached It has exceeded the warning line, but you may not know that the city government and the county government have not opened the floodgates to reduce your losses, but the dam can no longer bear it, and it is at stake. When the dam breaks, not only will the homes and fertile land be washed away, but even lives will be lost.”

   "Death is death, it is impossible for us to go." There are still people who are obsessed with it.

Lu Jianhong was very annoyed, so she raised her voice suddenly, and said loudly, "I know you are not afraid of death, but have you ever thought about your children and grandchildren? Why should they give up their lives for your stubbornness? Opportunity? There are three kinds of unfilial piety, and being unnamed is the biggest. Your lineage will also be cut off because of this. Under the nine springs, are you worthy of your ancestors?"

  Xiaguan county has a strong culture of filial piety, and when Lu Jianhong said that, he couldn't help but stop talking.

  Lu Jianhong continued: "The municipal party committee has decided to open the floodgates at three o'clock tomorrow morning. Please evacuate as soon as possible. If your home is destroyed, you can rebuild it. If you die, you will lose everything."

  Seeing that the attitude of the common people had softened, the party secretary Lao Ma fell to his knees in the mud and shouted: "Folks, I beg you, get out!"

  Gao Lan captured this touching scene, tears mixed with rain all over her face.

  Lao Ma is in his fifties and has a good reputation. Now he is kneeling in the rain, begging the villagers to evacuate, and let them realize that the situation is really serious. Someone muttered: "Then evacuate."

   There are more and more echoing voices.

  Lu Jianhong hurriedly helped the old horse up, and said, "Old horse, get up, time is running out, hurry up and organize people to do the evacuation work."
