Chapter 480 Fighting the Flood - Dedicated to the soldiers who fought for the country in 1998!(1/2)
The soldiers immediately scolded Tu Qianjun for being stupid, and looked at Tu Qianjun on the high platform with some confusion. But their backs were still straight! Looking at these soldiers, Tu Qianjun softened his tone. Only then did he
I remembered that this team was not the same team that roared forward before floods and earthquakes in later generations!
"Tell me, what is the purpose of our National Defense Force?!" Tu Qianjun said solemnly to the soldiers below, and after hearing Junzi's words, these soldiers who straightened their backs had a blazing light in their eyes! Qi Qi
Shout loudly!
"Practice your skills hard! Protect your home and country!!"
"That's right! Our National Defense Force was established to protect our country!" Tu Qianjun paused and said solemnly to the soldiers under his command: "What is the reason why our National Defense Force is beating old men?! It's because of them
We want to seize the land left by our ancestors! Why do our National Defense Forces fight against the Japanese?! It’s because these gangsters want to occupy our three eastern provinces!"
"The purpose of our National Defense Force's existence is to tell those bastards who want to poop and piss on us! With our group of National Defense Force men here, they will give up as soon as possible!" After a pause, Tu Qianjun looked at these expressions.
The flushed soldiers said solemnly: "We have not embarrassed our ancestors! We use our fists and guns to tell those bastards that we are all men in charge!!"
These words cheered up! The eyes of the National Defense Forces soldiers standing on the playground suddenly turned red! The straight and javelin-like figure stood on the playground like a jungle! A layer of chilling slowly spread from their bodies.
Spread out!
"But, this is not enough!" Tu Qianjun looked at these soldiers and said in a deep voice: "Can our National Defense Force only be able to fight?! Can we only be able to fight?! No! In my opinion, our National Defense Force must not only be able to fight! We must also be able to fight.
You know, we all come from the common people!"
As he said that, Tu Qianjun paused and looked at the soldiers below and said in a deep voice: "Protect the home and the country! We have only done enough to protect the country, but we have not yet done enough to protect the home! What home is our National Defense Force protecting?! It belongs to the common people!
Home! It is the home of all the people in this northeastern land!"
Looking at the soldiers below, Tu Qianjun said in a deep voice: "So, I let you go in! Go and rescue the people who have been affected by the disaster. Go and bring back the people who can't survive. I hope you know, we are the National Defense Forces!
Not only must we defend our country! We must also learn to protect our family!”
At this point, some of the smart soldiers below began to understand what Tu Qianjun was going to say. Most of them were natives of the Northeast. Perhaps the older generation came from Guandong. But they themselves were in this black land.
Grew up on.
Therefore, they naturally knew that the recent heavy rain was abnormal! Historically, the Songhuā River has never been less visited by floods. There were flash floods in the years 1909, 1911, 1914, and 1929!
Every time an outbreak occurs, large areas of farmland will be flooded. Countless people will be displaced, and even railways and roads will be damaged in large areas! Homeless people sell their children and daughters, filling the streets and alleys of cities such as Harbin...
"You are my brothers, the warriors who have followed me in my expeditions to the north and south to kill the enemy and serve the country!" Tu Qianjun looked at the soldiers under his command. He said solemnly: "This time, the enemy we face is not Lao Maozi or
Those naughties! It’s a flood!!”
Looking at these energetic soldiers under his command, Tu Qianjun softened his tone and said solemnly: "But, I don't care whether he is a human or a flood! Anyway, if they come, we have to keep them out! No matter how violent the storm is!
Earthquake or hail! You all follow me! Stop him!"
"This time, our position is the dam! This time! Our enemy is the flood! National Defense Force, what should we do if we encounter the enemy?!"
"National Defense Force! Kill the enemy! Kill! Kill!!" The chilling air that had been stagnated suddenly burst out! Listening to this roar that shook the mountains and fields, Tu Qianjun solemnly gave a military salute to these soldiers!
"Let's go now! Remember, don't embarrass our National Defense Forces!! Die in battle on the dam. Don't let the flood break the embankment! Let's go!!"
Following Tu Qianjun's order, the soldiers of the two divisions stood at attention with a "crash! Stomp!" and then slowly boarded the train under the leadership of their direct commanders.
"Rumble..." Thunder sounded! The heavy rain poured down on the ground again. Looking at the heavy rain, Tu Qianjun's face became extremely ugly! If the heavy rain continues to rain, how long can those dams be able to support it?
…
Overnight! The entire National Defense Force came to life like ferocious beasts. Under the transportation of military vehicles, war horses and trains, they headed towards Hulan, Bayan, Nehe, Tailai, Suihua, Longjiang, Zhaozhou...
Wait and move forward quickly along the river embankment!
The other part is heading towards Nawen Banner, Bayan Banner, Molidawa Banner, Arong Banner, Butha Left Banner, Butha Right Banner, etc. in Inner Mongolia! The steel frames urgently processed by the arsenals of the three eastern provinces
, the prototype hollow steel columns are being transported by trains and cars and heading to various places! At the same time, various materials are also constantly being gathered!
In July 1932, under the heavy rain, the water levels in the tributaries of the Songhuā River surged! The soldiers of the National Defense Force who had already entered various places silently carried their engineering shovels, sacks and other materials transported from Fengtian and stationed in sections.
Dam!
July 17. Heavy rain poured down! The rain area was mainly distributed in the Nenjiang River Basin. The rainfall at Qiqihar and Angangxi stations were 152.1mm and 128.7mm respectively! The field radio stations of various ministries immediately sent emergency calls to the temporary flood control headquarters in Harbin: The river water surged!
There may be danger of floods here! Please be careful downstream!
In Hulan County, "Since July 17 this year, there has been continuous heavy rain, and the rivers have surged at the same time, which may cause flooding." In Nehe County, "It has been raining heavily since July 18, and it has not been sunny for ten days! The rivers have suddenly flooded."
If it rises, it may cause disaster to the downstream..."
Tu Qianjun looked at the several telegrams sent in his temporary headquarters with a gloomy and frightened expression. He slowly put down the telegrams and said to Shang Dinan beside him in a deep voice: "Tell them, now is a war! The enemy is the flood.
!Transfer the people! Hold on to the dikes! Those who are slacking off will be removed from the National Defense Forces! Transferred to a military court!!"
"Yes!!" Shang Dinan roared with red eyes! Then he rushed down to deliver the order.
Harbin City, Zaiwanzi area. The dam here has been reinforced several times, and even the top of the dam has been fixed with sandbags and steel columns! A group of soldiers wearing the uniforms of the National Defense Forces stood proudly in the heavy rain! Just like the undefeated
of green pine!
Tan Junchi, commander of the 10th Regiment of the 4th Division of the 1st Army and the 2nd Army, held the telegram in his hand and roared angrily at the soldiers who stood unmoving in the pouring rain.
"The Commander-in-Chief has sent us a telegram! He made it clear that this time we are fighting a war! What we are fighting is a flood!" The former commander of the old First Army roared at the soldiers under his command: "Commander-in-Chief
It's clear! Anyone who can't do a good job will be removed from our National Defense Force!! I have killed the old man all the way through the war! I have killed the little poke! I have never been humiliated! You bastards, don't do it to me!
Shame on you! Follow me to the dam! Keep your eyes open! Report something wrong immediately! Disband!"
"Yes!!" The soldiers in the heavy rain suddenly stood at attention and responded loudly, and then divided into groups one by one to patrol the embankment! At this time, Tan Junchi said to Chief of Staff Shen Jiazhi beside him: "How is it?!
How many people have been moved from the villages below?!"
Shen Jiazhi, who had been silent, smiled bitterly and said to Tan Junchi: "Most people have moved away. But there are still a few families who refuse to leave! They promised to guard their land, and the food in the land has not yet been harvested.
Woolen cloth……"
When Tan Junchi heard this, he jumped up and scolded Shen Jiazhi angrily: "I said, what did you do?! The flood is coming soon, and you haven't evacuated yet?! What if the flood comes?
What should I do if the dike breaks?! Get me here right away!!"
Shen Jiazhi was scolded by Tan Junchi and smiled helplessly. He shook his head and said to Tan Junchi: "Captain, it's not that we don't try our best to persuade him! But he just refuses to leave. What can we do? We can't force him to leave, right?"
!After all, we are not those bastard warlords..."
I don’t know when the National Defense Force deliberately separated itself from the warlords in the pass. At any time, those warlords became negative teaching materials for the superiors of the National Defense Force to educate their subordinates, and the subordinates reported to their superiors.
Of course, they did not confuse themselves with the Central Army of the Nanjing Government. In the eyes of the proud and almost stubborn National Defense Forces, those people were beaten in Jinan City and did not dare to fight back. They were beaten by the Japanese in Shanghai and felt aggrieved.
They don't care about seeking peace with the government.
Tan Junchi called his chief of staff and felt depressed for a while. Yes! He is not one of those warlords. How can he still kidnap people?! After holding it in for a while, Tan Junchi said angrily to Shen Jiazhi: "Okay.
! Then let the brothers be careful. If you find out and it doesn’t work, rush them out! If you can’t save your life, then everything is fake!”
Shen Jiazhi nodded, indicating that he understood. Just when Tan Junchi was about to say something more, a company commander ran up to Tan Junchi with a nervous expression and said: "Report! Captain, the hydrology is wrong one mile ahead.
!I asked someone to check there seems to be an undercurrent behind the dam!!”
"Where?! Take me there immediately!" Tan Junchi's expression suddenly changed, and he ran towards the place pointed by the company commander! "Old Shen! Take command here. If you have any questions, ask someone to come and tell me!"
With that said, Tan Junchi's figure had disappeared into the night. Shen Jiazhi smiled bitterly, his partner has always had a fiery temper, and this temper probably cannot be changed!
Tan Junchi and his company commander ran all the way. When they rushed to the bottom of the dam, they saw trickles of water flowing out of the dam foundation. This water flow was gradually taking away the soil on the dam!
Tan Junchi's face suddenly darkened, and he said in a deep voice to the company commander: "Have people come over and block this place first! You watch, the rest of the people follow me up the dam!" He said, without waiting for the company commander to react.
He hurried to the dam!
After running up the embankment, Tan Junchi's face became ugly! They will set up an observation point every thirty meters or so, and the observation point will insert a straw on the embankment to mark the water level!
The water level is now obviously about two centimeters higher than the mark where you just sat down! But before Tan Junchi could curse, Shen Jiazhi hurried to his side and said in a deep voice: "Old Tan! Something happened! I just received the message.
Telegraph from upstream, the flood peak has formed! It is rushing towards us! I have already ordered the brothers to strengthen the embankment! You hurry back and take command!"
Hong Feng!! Tan Junchi's expression suddenly changed, and he ran towards his headquarters! Shen Jiazhi followed closely behind. After arriving at the headquarters, Tan Junchi roared angrily at the messengers who were waiting for orders.
"Notice! Ten people from each company will be assigned to check the piping and spring conditions of the embankment! If anything is wrong, report it immediately and make repairs on the spot! The remaining 15 meters per class will move forward in order and go to the cornfield behind the embankment to collect soil.
A sub-dyke one meter high and one meter wide has been built on top of the embankment!! Act immediately!"
"Yes!!" the ordering soldiers shouted loudly, then turned around and rushed down to deliver the order!
Just when Tan Junchi and others were busy, the first flood peak occurred in the upstream Nenjiang River! The peak water level of its mainstream alliance was 170.36 meters, and the peak flow rate was 8,300 cubic meters per second; the peak water level of the Jiangqiao River was 140.71 meters, and the peak flow rate was 7,480 cubic meters per second!
The newly built embankment cannot withstand the surging river water at all! The sandbags that resisted the rising river water were crumbling under the rising water level, while the soldiers stationed on the embankment roared one by one with red eyes.
Sandbags were brought up to the dam in an attempt to strengthen it!
"Report!! There is a pipe surge below!!" A man who looked like a mud monkey rushed to another tall and strong soldier who was not much better than him. He said loudly: "I have sent people to eliminate it. But the battalion commander! Like this
We can't go down! We don't have enough manpower..."
"If it's not enough, I have to bear it!!" A fiery light flashed in the eyes of this monkey-like soldier, and he shouted to his subordinates: "Let's take a step back! This is my hometown in the Northeast!! The commander-in-chief said, this
The embankment is our position! No one from our national defense force has ever escaped! Even if he dies, he will die on the embankment with me!"
With that said, the man wiped the rainwater from his face, rushed to the embankment, picked up two sandbags, and ran towards the embankment! The soldier who just talked to him stopped saying anything. He gritted his teeth and picked up the two sandbags in one breath.
Dai Sandbag resolutely rushed up the dam!
Scenes like this are constantly being staged on the dams where the flood peak passes! These soldiers of the National Defense Force have fought with the Japanese and Lao Maozi on the battlefield! But they have never tried to fight with the flood!
Before they arrived, they received only a little knowledge about flood prevention. The only thing they knew about floods was to strengthen the dams and block the piping!
To be continued...
