Rebirth in 1998 is also a kind of life

In the heavy rain, a dozen Dongfeng trucks and seven or eight vans were driving on National Highway 104.

In the compartment of a large Dongfeng truck, Yang Zhu in a blue factory uniform swayed disorderly with the vehicle, staring blankly at the boxes of tightly bound goods in front of him.

"Hey, Yang Zhu, hasn't the flood peak of the Yangtze River passed by now? Why do we have to run there to help? And isn't the current situation in Yichang more urgent? Why do you want us to go to Jiangxi Province?" After a little excitement, he asked a little strangely.

"Cut~! Where is this? It's not like you haven't read the weather forecast and expert predictions. The rain will continue for more than a month in the future. Do you think there is only such a wave of floods?"

"As for why I went to Jiangxi Province, how do I know?" Yang Zhu replied feebly. He couldn't tell the school belle that it was because he made up a lot of plausible reasons for the reason that the most dangerous place is the easiest to shine. Did Li Ming persuade Director Lin to go to Jiujiang?

It is now July 7th, and at 4:[-] pm the day before yesterday, the first flood peak of the Yangtze River appeared in Yichang; after asking the experts of the Meteorological Bureau for their opinions, Director Lin and Li Ming, who had rushed to the front line a week ago He and others immediately called back to the factory and asked the second batch of "Party Member Volunteer Teams" to set off immediately and rush to various places.

The so-called "Party Party Volunteer Team" was the second plan put forward by Factory Manager Lin and Li Ming. The general idea was to gather all Party members and non-Party volunteers in the factory to form a team to assist in flood fighting and disaster relief after obtaining the approval of the superiors. , in addition to transporting and distributing materials, it also assumes the responsibility of assisting in maintaining law and order in the disaster area and helping the affected people solve various life difficulties.

Originally, there were only less than 200 people in this team, but then Factory Manager Lin and Secretary Zhang somehow persuaded the Meat Union Factory, which has a good relationship recently, and a volunteer team of nearly 300 people was also called there. Come in, so there is now this mighty mixed convoy.

Hearing what Yang Zhu said, Wan Qingyi's face was a little unnatural. She was always concerned about the flood disaster, and she naturally knew from TV and reports how frightened the first wave of the flood peak was. If the Three Waves of Hongfeng...

Thinking of the turbulent and ferocious yellow river in the TV screen, the fingers of the school girl pinched a little white, and when I felt a little retreated in my heart, I remembered the words of Yang Zhu more than ten days ago:

"If you want to secure your position in the Secretariat and be reused by Director Lin, professional knowledge and one or two beautiful reports are not enough!"

"Factory Manager Lin, I have also learned from the side. Apart from having the decisiveness necessary for a leader, he is also a pedantic, old-fashioned, bad old man who still has unrealistic ideals and romanticism in his heart!"

"Therefore, in many matters, he upholds the outdated idea that man can conquer nature, and when it comes to the selection of talents, the test of heart is far greater than ability."

"So I suggest that you join this party member volunteer team no matter what. If you are not a party member, with this attitude, even if you don't perform well in this volunteer activity, it is enough to make Director Lin feel good about it. You have a high opinion, and then with your outstanding professional ability, you can truly become a usable talent in his heart!"

Wan Qingyi sighed, no matter whether Yang Zhu was fooling himself or not, but right now he really had no other choice but to bite the bullet.

Just when he was feeling uneasy, he heard Yang Zhu complaining about Sima Qing again:

"I told you not to come, little girl, don't come, little girl, you insisted on not listening, and secretly reported to the volunteers."

"Hmph, you girl is quite capable now, you don't even take your team leader's words seriously!"

The seaweed monster said weakly:

"I saw that both you and Sister Qingyi signed up, so I thought about signing up for one too, so that everyone can take care of me."

"Besides, you and Sister Qingyi have left, and I don't know what to do in the factory alone, and... I'm a little scared."

Yang Zhu naturally knew what she was afraid of, but he was also a little annoyed when he understood it. You thought you were playing house this time, and you couldn't see those dangerous scenes on TV! ?

Immediately, he picked up his fist and slammed her on the head: "You little girl, don't you know what kind of unlucky physique you have? If you go there and be washed away by the flood, I'll see who dares to save you!"

………………

Quancheng seems to be far away from Jiangxi Province, but in fact, with two drivers taking turns changing shifts, even if the speed of Dongfeng truck is set there, it will take one and a half days.

On the afternoon of July 7, the convoy passed through Jiangzhou Town, which was obviously flooded, and came to the dam full of armed police.

After jumping out of the car and retching a few times, Yang Zhu greeted Li Ming who rushed over to direct the unloading of supplies.

In just a week since we saw each other, Lao Li has become haggard, his hair is messy, and there are still some mud stains on his face that have not been wiped off.

"Bah~! Old Li, the smell on your body can be used as insecticide!" As soon as he got close, Yang Zhu was staggered by the smell of this guy. The rain and sweat mixed together and gradually spread on his clothes. The taste of fermentation is really indescribable.

Li Ming raised his arm and sniffed, with a blank expression on his face, is there any smell?Why didn't I feel it?Then he slapped this guy hard on the head: "Don't talk so much, come with me, I have something to ask you!"

Being pulled aside, Li Ming looked a little unhappy: "Boy, at the beginning you said that Jiujiang might have the worst disaster, and it took me a lot of effort to convince Factory Manager Lin to give up Yichang and come all the way here .”

"But we have been here for a week. Maybe the city here is a bit flooded, but the first wave of floods passed by without any danger. Everyone said that the Jiujiang Dam is as solid as gold, and there will be no problems at all. On the contrary It is Yichang, Wuhan and other places downstream that are the most dangerous places."

"So... Tell me honestly, is it because you are greedy for life and afraid of death, deliberately avoiding dangerous areas that really need support?"

Yang Zhu rolled his eyes, what you say is so high-sounding, after all, are you afraid of losing face in front of the other leaders of the rescue brigade afterwards?

Well, in fact, this party member volunteer team composed of the Quancheng Soda Factory and the Meat Factory, except for the driver who needs to transport soda and various food and supplies around the clock, the rest of the people are divided into several groups, respectively. Heilongjiang, Hunan, Hubei, and various national key prevention areas in Jiangxi are working.

However, as a week passed, some dangerous situations appeared from time to time in Yichang, Wuhan and other places, but Jiujiang, Jiangxi could only watch the river in a daze without any danger. No wonder Li Ming felt resentful in his heart.

Yang Zhu smiled: "Don't worry, Jiujiang is near Poyang Lake..."

Before he finished speaking, Li Ming waved his hand impatiently and interrupted him: "Go, go! Stop fooling around here. Jiujiang is close to Poyang Lake, and Shashi, Hubei is also close to Poyang Lake; Yichang also inherited the water system of Qingjiang River. What about the torrents of the five major water systems, including the Dongting Lake water system and the Lishui River system!"

Yang Zhu looked at him in surprise. Unexpectedly, I haven't seen him for a week. This guy's geography knowledge level has greatly improved!

After thinking about it, since we have reached this point, there is no need to hide some things, so he pointed to Ba Ti: "Let's walk around, then we will have the answer you want."

Under Li Ming's bewildered expression, Yang Zhu came to the section between gate 4 and gate 5 according to his memory: "Here, study carefully, is there any problem with this dam?"

Li Ming looked at the undamaged dam body, tapped the cement again, and listened to the voice: "No problem!"

Yang Zhu sighed: "I give you two choices, either you take a risk, I will tie you with a rope, and you go to test the dam below that has been flooded for a week; or you can spend two or three days doing experiments, As long as you keep pouring water on it, you should be able to see something."

Li Ming took a breath: "You mean??"

Yang Zhu nodded and remained silent.

Li Ming smiled a little ugly, but his eyes were very serious: "Could it be that you heard nonsense from somewhere again, you can't talk nonsense about such things."

Yang Zhu's expression was a little lonely, and his voice was much lower: "Don't worry about where I know it, I'm not talking nonsense, you will know if you go down and find out?"

Li Ming's chest fluctuated a little, he stared at Yang Zhu for a while, then turned and left.

After a while, Li Ming came over with a few workers from the soda factory, and Factory Manager Lin was by his side.

Declining the wishes of several workers, Li Ming put on an orange life jacket, tied his waist tightly with a rope, and then carefully climbed down the dam body. After being beaten a few times by the rushing water, Li Ming took a deep look at Yang Zhu, then pushed down the goggles he got from the welder, took a deep breath, and sank underwater.

"Hey! Comrades over there, what are you doing!?" The movement here aroused the idea of ​​the armed police from the 93rd Regiment of the 253rd Division of the Armed Police Force, and two armed police officers covered in mud came over.

Lin Xiong took a step forward, pulled the two armed policemen aside and muttered to himself, and under the suspicious eyes of the two armed policemen, for five minutes, Li Mingcai, who had dived seven or eight times, pulled the rope to let the people on the dam Someone pulled him up.

Without waiting for a short rest, Li Ming with a gloomy face didn't even understand the rope, so he went straight to Lin Xiong: "The bottom is the soil foundation, obviously the foundation has not been cleaned thoroughly, and no steel bars were found in the damaged concrete embankment above. structure!"

Then he stretched out his hand, a few finger-sized pieces, and at a glance, he knew that they were just broken off cement blocks lying quietly on the palm of his hand...
