Wufeng arrived at No. 1 reservoir at 5 a.m. at this time, the water level has reached the highest level in history, only 0.8m away from the dam crest.
The reservoir workers and their families have spontaneously brought sacks from them and filled them with soil to heighten the dam top.
But the manpower is limited and there are not many sacks. The increase of the dam crest can not catch up with the water storage height. I'm afraid they can't last long.
Divine troops descending from heaven, and a team of PLA soldiers jumped down the truck in sacks and shovel.
"Look, it's the people's Liberation Army. The people's Liberation Army has come to support us!" I don't know who shouted in the desperate crowd, and then I heard cheers and warm applause.
"We're saved, we're saved!"
"The people's Liberation Army is coming. There are no problems that cannot be overcome!"
"Brothers, for the sake of our parents and villagers, everyone follows the PLA and cheer up!"
Director Li, the manager left behind in the reservoir, directly shed two lines of tears and excitedly held Wu Feng's hand, "political commissar Wu, you came in time. I didn't expect the provincial capital military region to come so soon!"
"At rest, the teacher received the news, and immediately convened a meeting to study the rescue activities. The teacher sent all the soldiers that could be mobilized in his right area. We also brought sacks and straw bags and shovel. So you can rest assured that the PLA will put the people's lives and property at the first place at any time!" Wu Feng shook hands with him. At the same time, he explained the basic situation of the troops to him.
"OK, great, let me tell you the basic situation of the reservoir." director Li led Wu Feng aside, "This reservoir was built in the 1950s. The spillway is very narrow and has little effect. Therefore, we must firmly hold the dam now, or the six villages downstream will be destroyed. But don't worry, the weather forecast says there is no heavy rain, so we are fully prepared."
Wu Feng didn't speak. Director Li was much more optimistic than Wei Zhenhui.
Before coming, Wei Zhenhui talked with him for ten minutes. Zhenhui seemed more confident that the water level would cross the dam crest, so let him make sure to raise the dam crest by five meters.
Wu Feng looked up at the sky. It was raining heavily. He didn't mean to stop at all.
Compared with director Li in front of him, Wu Feng resolutely chose to believe Wei Zhenhui who didn't understand water conservancy. After all, they had been partners for many years, and Wei Zhenhui never made mistakes in his analysis of things.
In front of the people, Wu Feng does not distrust his profession, but he does things completely based on experience and will suffer a loss one day.
Even he could see that the rain didn't mean to stop, and the man was still insisting on his idea.
"Director Li, to be on the safe side, how about we build another dam in the middle reaches? If the dam breaks, at least we have a line of defense!" then he pointed to the soldiers running on the top of the dam.
"You see, there are surplus troops here. I took away 500 soldiers, plus the strong labor of the reservoir workers and their families, and rushed to the middle reaches immediately!"
Director Li was obviously stunned. He had already said that there would not be so much precipitation. At present, the preliminary predicted rainfall is within the acceptable range of the dam, "this... Political commissar Wu, is it a bit superfluous?"
"It's best to do something superfluous. I hope that won't happen. Director Li, I'll leave it to you!" Wu Feng rushed to the middle reaches with 500 people and reservoir workers without further delay.
Two kilometers away from the dam, there was a half built dam. Wu Feng immediately asked people to stop and asked the reservoir staff, "what's the matter with half built dams here?"
