"Um… "

"snort… "

Just when the two people were hugging each other, the blood flow in their bodies increased, and they wanted to melt together immediately, the door outside suddenly made a slight noise.

Zhang Lei's voice also came from the door: "Leader, if this damn weather continues, I'm afraid there will be boats on the street."

The two people suddenly separated, Zhao Jingjing blushed and punched Liu Yang hard: "It's all you..." Liu Yang also smiled sheepishly. When he saw Zhang Lei coming in wearing sandals and rolling up his trouser legs, he couldn't help but exclaimed. Stunned, he asked: "Why, the water is so deep outside?"

Seeing such a beautiful woman sitting in the county magistrate's office, Zhang Lei couldn't help but be startled, thinking to himself, am I here at the wrong time? But when Liu Yang asked, he had to answer. So he pointed outside and said: "The water is now up to the bend of the legs. If it continues to fall, it will be no problem to take a boat in our yard. I am afraid that the entire first floor will be soaked in water."

Liu Yang listened and quickly walked to the window, his face darkening involuntarily.

The heavy rain just now has accumulated more than half a meter of rainwater on the streets of Huling County. This is because the underground pipe network in the old urban area of Huling County cannot keep up with the needs of the situation. The sewers are blocked in many places and the water cannot be discharged at all. But because of the peculiar terrain of Huling County, the average altitude of the entire Huling County is actually not much higher than the water surface of East Lake.

East Lake is located between Zaoyuan City in the east and Huling County in Renzhou City in the west. It is actually a watershed between Zaoyuan City and Huling County. The average altitude of Zaoyuan City in the east is more than 30 meters higher than that of Huling County in the west.

Usually when there is less water in the lake, the water surface is below the second beach of the lake, and the water level is only about 30 to 40 centimeters lower than that of Huling County. As long as the lake water overflows the second beach, it is higher than the altitude of Huling County.

There is a slope protection above the second beach of the lake. If the lake water overflows the slope protection and crosses or breaks down the dam, the entire Huling County will become a swamp.

The total area of East Lake is 2,100 square kilometers, with a controllable water storage capacity of 1.73 billion cubic meters and a maximum storage capacity of 4.731 billion cubic meters. The average water depth is 1.7 meters, and the deepest is 3 meters during the flood season.

What protected Huling County from infringement was the Huxi Levee excavated and constructed from 1958 to 1959.

This long embankment starts from Laohekou in Renzhou City in the north and ends at Yangjiawa Flood Gate in Pengzhou City in Jiangnan Province in the south, with a total length of more than 130 kilometers. Designed according to the once-in-twenty-year flood control standard, the top of the embankment is 39.29 meters high, 6 meters wide, with a front-to-water slope of 1:6.5 and a back-to-water slope of 1:3. It has been in operation for more than 50 years, and now it cannot meet the original design standards and is riddled with holes. In urgent need of reinforcement.

However, there have been no heavy rainstorms in this area of Huling County in recent years, so no one pays attention to the extent of the damage to the life-saving levee.

As for the road to be built in Liu Yang's plan, a large part of it is to use the Huxi Levee as the roadbed.

If such a heavy rainstorm continues until dark, I wonder if the levee, which has experienced more than fifty years of wind and rain, can still hold on to its main position

If the levee breaks, the lives and properties of more than 4 million people in five or six counties in two provinces, three cities, and cities in Huling will be harmed, as well as the safety of more than 7 million acres of fertile land, coal mines, and towns in Huxi.

As a native of Huling County, Liu Yang knows all this very well.

But now the sky outside is still dark, and the rain has turned into gray rain lines, falling down like the Milky Way bursting.

When he turned back, Zhao Jingjing could clearly see that Liu Yang's face had become gloomy and scary, so she couldn't help but smile and comfort him: "What's wrong? Isn't it just a little rain? Is it really that serious?"

Liu Yang nodded without speaking, but walked to his desk and grabbed the phone on the desk: "Secretary Sun, the weather is a bit wrong today? I don't think it's just a shower like the weather forecast said... "

"Comrade Liu Yang, I am also a little uneasy. I just called the Meteorological Bureau, and the Meteorological Bureau couldn't say anything." Sun Qingmei also said with a hint of anxiety on the phone.

He has a deeper fear of heavy rain than Liu Yang. The heavy rain in Sihe County was simply her nightmare, and it still lingers in her mind.

She had experienced that heavy rain personally. If she hadn't received the news beforehand, she was afraid that many people would have died in Sihe County that time.

If that kind of thing really happened, she would be lucky to be able to drink porridge at home, let alone sitting in the office of the county party committee secretary.

However, compared with that time in Sihe County, the heavy rain this time was even worse. Although she had just arrived in Huling County to work, she also knew that Huling County was located in a low-lying area.

He was a little worried that something would happen just now. He just called the Meteorological Bureau to ask, but he didn't know that the Meteorological Bureau couldn't explain the reason.

This situation has never been encountered before. According to the observed data, there should not be such a large layer of rain in the sky above Huling County, but now it is raining heavily. You reported to the secretary that it should not rain. , isn’t this why you are making trouble for yourself

Therefore, Fang Ruilin, director of the Meteorological Bureau, could only vaguely say that they are conducting further observations. As for how deep the rain will fall, it is still unclear.

Knowing that the leader would be dissatisfied if he said this, Fang Ruilin had no other good solution.

Sun Qingmei was obviously dissatisfied with this result, but there was nothing she could do at this time. After all, those at the Meteorological Bureau are experts. They can't come up with any opinions, and it's hard to say anything themselves.

However, as the heavy rain continued to fall, her uneasiness became higher and higher. When she received Liu Yang's call, she didn't find the person's voice annoying for the first time. Instead, she felt a faint dependence in her heart and wanted to hear Liu Yang's opinion on this matter.

Liu Yang said firmly: "Secretary Sun, I think we should issue a flood warning now, activate the secondary plan, and immediately organize people to go to the embankment to carefully inspect and strengthen the embankment according to the sections divided by the plan to prevent disasters and accidents..."

"Is this a bit too much?" Sun Qingmei was still a little hesitant.

The No. 2 flood control emergency plan is the highest-level plan after the No. 1 plan for mass transfer and uses the most personnel. It requires each town in the county to urgently dispatch 2,000 people to guard the embankments according to the divided areas.

Of course, the tools used have been prepared by the county flood control office.

Huling County is in such a critical position. This work has been done all the time, and the flood prevention plan has been prepared long ago. Otherwise, Liu Yang would not have started any secondary plan.

Liu Yang gave a wry smile on the phone: "Secretary Sun, I hope my worries are unfounded. But compared to the lives and property of the people, even passing it is better than not being prepared. The main purpose of this flood control is to ensure that the Huxi levee does not The only prerequisite is a breach. At the same time, the county seat and the two lowest-lying towns, Huangzhuang Town and Houma Town, have to mobilize the people to move to higher ground. Even if the levee is fine, if it rains for two more times, hours, they may not rush into the village. At the same time, I propose that the leading cadres of our county party committee and county government should be divided into three squads. One squad will follow the embankment to form an on-site headquarters to command nearby, and the other squad will be established to take charge of logistics support. , the other group went to Huangzhuang Town and Houma Town to direct the relocation work of these two towns. We must hurry up and everything must be deployed before dark... "

The more Sun Qingmei listened, the more her head grew bigger. She couldn't help but said: "County Magistrate Liu, this... isn't this a bit too exaggerated? After all, we haven't figured out the situation clearly yet, and you only moved ten or twenty thousand people. Go guard the embankment? We don’t know when the rain will stop. How long will we let those people squat on the embankment? How much will it cost for so many people to eat and drink? Have you calculated this account? No… "

Liu Yang said a little anxiously: "My Sister Sun, the total length of East Lake is 36 kilometers along the embankment of our Huling County. Is it conspicuous that so few people are scattered on the embankment? If nothing happens now, I really want to protect the people of the whole county. Pull them all to the embankment. After all, the lake embankment is much higher than the five-story building in our county. If anything happens, it is the safest to stand on the embankment. How much does a human life cost? How are we going to calculate the accounts?"

Hearing that Liu Yang was a bit arrogant and actually called herself Sister Sun instead of Secretary Sun, Sun Qingmei's face turned red over the phone and she secretly spat, thinking to herself, you bastard, what are you calling yourself? Am I very old

However, from Liu Yang's words, she also felt the seriousness and worry of the matter. It's really like what he said. Thousands of people scattered on the embankment are really not enough. However, this matter was so important that it was difficult for her to make this decision.

At this time, it can be seen that men and women are separated.

Liu Yang just did what he said and wouldn't think about it so much. But Sun Qingmei thought about it carefully, thinking that if this matter was in vain, she could not bear this responsibility.

However, she had a faint worry in her heart. If it was true as Liu Yang said, if a more disastrous accident occurred due to lack of preparation, the responsibility would be even heavier.

Therefore, Sun Qingmei was still hesitating in her heart. She pondered for a moment and said softly: "How about we gather everyone together and discuss it..."

"There is no time to argue. If someone needs to stand up and take responsibility, then I will bear this responsibility. Secretary Sun, you sit at home and I will lead people to the embankment. I will notify everyone now." The town's bus and truck transportation company will be ready immediately. In two hours, people must be seen on the embankment." Liu Yang roared and hung up the phone.

Over there, Sun Qingmei was also so angry that her breasts were heaving. She thought to herself that we haven't even settled the debt for calling me eldest sister just now. How dare you lose your temper at me

Damn, who do you think you are
