midnight
The raindrops hit the window with a crackling sound.
Lin Wanwan opened her eyes helplessly, put on her clothes and went out.
I put on my raincoat and wanted to go to the dam to see the situation.
I could hear the noise of bustle from a distance away.
Soldiers in uniform carried bags of sand.
Some villagers spontaneously held torches to light the way for everyone.
The wives and children at home were left to pack up their things. If the dam could not hold up, they would have to escape quickly.
Heavy rain was falling on the dark sky.
The ground is full of the colors of human life.
Lin Wanwan looked for a while, then jumped onto the truck bed in two or three steps.
"You all go down and carry it, I can do it alone up there." He threw a bag in each hand down quickly.
A group of people below received the call and quickly ran to the dam.
No one said much. It was more important to repair the dam at this time.
A group of villagers also wanted to help repair the dam, but they couldn't go to the dam. However, they could help carry the bags.
The thin men, carrying bags of sand on their shoulders, staggered forward.
It rained heavily for so long that there was no water here and the road was very muddy.
The men all wore straw sandals made at home, and they would easily slip if they were not careful.
The soldiers watched with tears in their eyes and hurried over to stop it.
"If the villagers want to help, please put it in a place where the road is not very muddy. The road is slippery in rainy days. If you fall, it won't be a big deal. But if you slide directly into the dam, it will be fatal."
Several soldiers shouted, and the villagers listened to their advice.
Do what you can and try not to cause trouble to the soldiers. If you fall, the military comrades will have to go down and rescue you. It doesn't matter if you die, but if you cause your military comrades to sacrifice as well, you will be a big sinner.
This formed a conveyor belt.
Lin Wanwan threw bags of food down from above, and the villagers lined up in two teams below and threw bags of food back to her.
Further back are the soldiers.
It's very fast.
Just when a truck of sand was almost used up, several military trucks rushed over in the rain.
Huo Qiushan jumped off the truck, adjusted his raincoat, and rushed into the rain. "What's the situation?"
The person in charge came to report the situation, "It's not optimistic. The water can't drain out. We can only keep raising the embankment, but this won't work. It's not reliable.
The villagers still have to leave this place first.
There are several villages around the dam, with a total population of more than a thousand.
Now we can only raise the embankment artificially, let the villagers leave as soon as possible, and then carry out manual blasting.
Hearing this, Huo Qiushan frowned in embarrassment, "Let's talk about this later. Let the villagers pack up and leave first.
If the dam can’t hold up, it could burst at any time.”
It seems that after this disaster, the dam needs to be repaired better, at least to be able to withstand such a situation.
At this moment, more than a dozen military trucks rushed over and gray-haired men jumped out of the trucks.
"Old Huo, stop worrying about it and bring everyone to my side."
"We have a factory that has just been built and hasn't started production yet. Let's all squeeze in and go to our factory first."
"Old Qin!"
The visitor was the mayor of the neighboring Qingyuan Town. "What are you talking about now? Let the villagers get ready to go."
I brought a lot of cars, so I asked the villagers to bring more things, as life is not easy. Bring whatever is difficult to buy later, as we have a large space. "
"Is the village chief of the nearby village here?" Huo Qiushan shouted. "Everyone, go back to the village and report the news. I'll give everyone half an evening to pack up and we'll leave together in the morning."
The rain was so heavy that my throat was splitting from shouting, but not many people could hear me.
Lin Wanwan couldn't stand it any longer and climbed onto the front of the truck, "Everyone, be quiet! Go back to the village and report this."
Let’s go to the next town together in the morning! ! ! ! ! ! ”
The sound was like thunder, and everyone jumped in surprise. "Oh my! What is that? It's so loud!"
After shouting this, Lin Wanwan felt like her lungs were about to explode.
Lying half dead on the roof of the car.
It was raining so hard that the raincoat was useless and I was still soaked.
Since it's already wet, I don't care about that anymore. I just lie there.
It's just a bit cold, and I have goosebumps.
I also forgot to bring my hot and cold wristbands.
After lying down for a while, I got up and continued working. At this time, I was racing against time.
After all three trucks of sand were piled up, the person in charge came over and said that they could be carried for a while, at least until tomorrow morning.
Everyone rushed to other dams to provide support.
Now that she was here, Lin Wanwan had no plans to leave. She planned to wait until she was done before leaving. She got into a truck, found a place to sit down, and took the time to rest for a while.
Another large reservoir needs to be ensured to prevent flooding.
If this reservoir were to release water, the town would be ruined.
This is the main force, most of the people are here.
It was the same order as before, with heavy rain and strong wind, everyone was racing against time.
This work lasted until dawn.
People from the other two small reservoirs also came to support.
Everyone was too tired to move, but they kept throwing sandbags mechanically.
When a rumbling sound was heard, everyone turned around to look without worrying about anything.
Lin Wanwan took the time to look and saw someone coming.
Sure enough, after a while, their jobs were taken over.
"Come on, come on, everyone come and have something to eat and drink a bowl of ginger soup." Huo Qiushan was dripping with water and quickly invited everyone to eat.
Lin Wanwan was the first to respond and quickly rushed to the place where the food was stored.
