    "What! The underground water pipe under the Qianmen Bridge burst. We are trying to find a way to repair it. Reinforcements can't get through for the time being!"

    It was really a leak in the house and it rained all night. When he heard the news that the underground water pipe burst, Gao Jue almost lost his breath and fainted.

    Now Gao Jue is just waiting for reinforcements to come. It¡¯s better now. If they can¡¯t come, wouldn¡¯t this cost people¡¯s lives?

    After hearing the news, Gao Jue said angrily and then hung up the phone.

    It¡¯s no wonder that Gao Jue was angry. The water in the township had failed. When Xu Yan came to ask for reinforcements, he roughly explained the situation. In most places, the water was already up to his calves.  There were all bungalows there, and many houses were flooded. People were waiting on the roofs for help.  As long as the dam town's reservoir is flooded, Cao Jingzhen probably won't be able to hold on for long. If there are reinforcements, maybe the soldiers can keep their spirits up. If there are no reinforcements, it's basically the end.

    There are no reinforcements at the moment, so I have to find a way to tide over the difficulties, otherwise, the downstream will definitely be destroyed first. Even if I can support it for a while, I am afraid I will not persist until the reinforcements arrive.

    He knew very well how serious the consequences would be if the underground water pipe burst and the ground cracked open.  If it hadn't rained, emergency repairs would have been faster, but with such heavy rain, it was almost impossible to make emergency repairs.  There is water everywhere now. As much as it flows, it will spurt out from the bursting place. It is basically a waste of time to get close.

    Gao Jue frowned, wondering what to do next.  At this moment, the phone in my hand rang again, "ring ring ring"

    Picking it up and looking at it, it was Lu You, secretary-general of the Municipal Party Committee, calling.  As soon as he saw Lu You's phone number, Gao Jue became more energetic. Lu You's call was probably a good thing in Gao Jue's opinion.  He quickly put it to his ear to answer and said, "Hello, Secretary-General Lu?"

    "Secretary Gao, it's me. I have something to inform you now." Lu You said very solemnly.

    "What's going on?" After hearing Lu You's tone, Gao Jue was quite excited just now, thinking there was good news, but now, an ominous premonition arose.

    "Secretary Yao just called me and said that the water level in the reservoir of the hydropower station continues to rise. If the rain does not stop within the next five hours, the No. 7 reservoir will open again to release floods. Maybe it will take half a year to release the floods.  I just heard about the fact that the reinforcements will not be able to get through in two hours. So, try your best to overcome it and see if you can think of something. Of course, the city will find a way to repair the burst water pipe as soon as possible so that the reinforcements can get there before the flood is released.  . But if I can¡¯t make it, I¡¯ll have to look at you, Secretary Gao, please.¡± When Lu You said these words, there was an apology in his tone, especially when he said the last sentence, ¡°Please.¡±  With sincerity.

    Gao Jue wanted to curse, you just said please and pushed us towards death.  But Gao Jue also understood that Lu You was helpless.  The reservoir of the upstream hydropower station must not collapse. Once it collapses, the consequences will be disastrous.  On the one hand, it caused economic losses, and the upstream urban areas were also flooded.  Therefore, no matter how we weigh it, we must open the gate to release the flood.

    Even though Gao Jue is the Party Secretary of Chunjiang City, he still has to do this.  There is no choice.

    "Okay. Secretary-General Lu, please convey this to Secretary Yao and reassure him that I will do my best to block this flood." Gao Jue also said solemnly.

    Gao Jue knew that it was useless to say anything else, what was supposed to come would definitely come, and it was useless to try to excuse himself.  Instead of asking people to rush the duck to put it on the shelves, it is better to have fun.

    The two said a few more polite words, and Gao Jue hung up the phone.

    Now Gao Jue is still standing in the hanging basket, looking at the embankment.  The rain was still so heavy that it never stopped. Yang Dana and others stood beside him, and they all persuaded Secretary Gao to rest in the tent.  But Gao Jue only said one thing, that is, the officers and soldiers on the embankment were fighting in the wind and rain. They didn't even wear raincoats, and they didn't say they were tired.  Are you taking a rest?

    Gao Jue is very good at motivating people.  He is not an officer in the army, but a local civilian party and government official, and he is also the top party committee secretary.  If a person like him stood in the wind and rain and commanded, the motivation he would bring to the soldiers would be greater than that of the officers.

    As long as he stands here, the soldiers will think that Secretary Gao has not even been a soldier yet, yet he still dares to stand with us in the wind and rain.  When it comes to official positions, they are much bigger than us, so they are not afraid of us, so what should we be afraid of?

    So, Gao Jue standing here has indeed played a considerable role.  In particular, the armed police and fire fighters from Tongjiang District came up. It can be said that they are united. The soldiers on the dam are more energetic than usual training.  Of course, it¡¯s not enough if you don¡¯t have the spirit. If you relax for a moment, the river will be full of sandbags.If it opens, death is certain.

    Gao Jue just said on the phone, "I will do my best to block this flood." The two regiment leaders standing next to him, as well as Wang Gan and Yang Danna, all heard clearly.  However, these four people did not know that Gao Jue was talking about the peak of the future and mistakenly thought it was the one in front of them.

    Of course, Gao Jue couldn't hide such a big thing from the four people around him. He said calmly: "Secretary-General Lu just called and said that if the heavy rain does not stop, the No. 7 reservoir of the upstream hydropower station will still release floods. I hope I can  We are waiting to go all out to block this flood peak. However, the reinforcements are unable to move forward because the underground water pipe under the Qianmen Bridge burst. It is still unknown when they will arrive. We can only prepare for the situation if there are no reinforcements.  Prepare to hold the dike.¡±

    ¡°Ah¡± upon hearing this, all four of them were stunned.  There is no need to release the flood. With the current strength of the troops, it is very difficult to hold on. If the flood is released again, how can it be possible to hold on?  By then, everyone will have to leave them here.

    "Secretary Gao, how can we hold on with just a few people like us? In addition, the dam town downstream will have to release floods later. It is hard to say whether the officers and soldiers downstream can withstand this impact. Without reinforcements,  I'm afraid that without any more flood discharge upstream, they will be wiped out," Yang Danna said.

    "Yes." Yang Danna's words suddenly reminded Gao Jue. Gao Jue had been confused just now and had forgotten about the flood discharge in Dam Town.  If there is help, the soldiers in Dama Town may be able to withstand it with just one breath. If there is no help, they will definitely not be able to withstand it, and they will all die there.  Gao Jue quickly raised his wrist and looked at his watch. The current time was still six minutes away from the flood discharge time in Dam Town.

    Gao Jue didn't have time to say anything else, so he quickly dialed Xu Yan's mobile phone number. As soon as the call was connected, before Xu Yan could say hello to him, Gao Jue shouted loudly: "Xu Yan, notify Dama Town immediately.  No flood discharge is allowed! We will notify you later when we will release the flood!"

    Hearing Gao Jue's roar on the phone, Xu Yan was startled, but he immediately reacted and replied: "Yes, Secretary Gao, I will notify you right away."

    "Hurry! Hurry! After the notification is over, call me and report!" Gao Jue shouted again.

    After saying that, Gao Jue hung up the phone without waiting for Xu Yan to answer.

    At this time, Gao Jue clenched his fist tightly with his left hand, praying in his heart that the dam town must not release the flood in advance.  In this case, all the officers and soldiers downstream will be ruined.

    Although Gao Jue and Cao Jingzhen are at odds with each other, and neither of them wants to make things easier for the other, this is not the time for grudges.  Once the flood is released from the dam town, and the officers and soldiers downstream cannot resist it, how many lives will be lost?  Cao Jingzhen, the highest officer, might be able to escape, but it would be difficult for those soldiers to escape.

    Now is the time when everyone is united, how could Gao Jue ignore the righteousness because of personal grudges.

    Fortunately, only a minute later, Xu Yan called and reported to Gao Jue that he had called Dam Town to stop the flood discharge.

    After hearing this, Gao Jue breathed a sigh of relief and said immediately: "Xiao Xu, please call Damba Town again and tell them that the flood discharge work still needs to be done, but not now. Didn't I say it before?  , can you hold on for two hours? There are still one hour and five minutes left before two hours, and in fifty-five minutes, the flood will be released directly!"

    "Yes, Secretary Gao!" Xu Yan agreed.

    "Okay, that's what I want to say." After Gao Jue finished speaking, he hung up the phone without waiting for Xu Yan to say anything else.

    Immediately, Gao Jue turned to look at Li Sanjiang and said: "Captain Li, call your political commissar immediately and tell him that because reinforcements cannot arrive in time and floods have to be released upstream, we can only evacuate now and abandon the downstream.  I have ordered the dam town to postpone the flood discharge for fifty minutes. During this period, the troops will leave as soon as possible. The troops are divided into two groups. One regiment of troops will come to our place for reinforcements, and another regiment of troops will be sent to various towns and villages for rescue. It is not appropriate.  Chi, take action immediately after receiving the order!"

    "Yes, Secretary Gao, I will contact Political Commissar Cao right away." Li Sanjiang nodded.

    Now Li Sanjiang admires Gao Jue very much. Gao Jue and Cao Jing really have conflicts. The senior leaders in the army basically know that Li Sanjiang is the regiment leader, how could he not know about it.  At the beginning, Li Sanjiang thought that Gao Jue might avenge himself publicly, but at this moment, Gao Jue's behavior and actions did not have the slightest intention of avenging private revenge, it was all business.  This alone is enough for Li Sanjiang to admire.

    Knowing that the matter was urgent, Li Sanjiang immediately took out his mobile phone and dialed Cao Jingzhen's phone number. After being connected, he relayed Gao Jue's words to Cao Jingzhen word for word.  (To be continued. Please search Piaotian Literature, the novels will be better and updated faster!)
