Chapter 64: Dispute

"Strange? Secretary Zhao, the weather in Ningling is like this, it is hot early and late, and it is no different from Pennsylvania in the south. However, the climate in Tongcheng in the north is much cooler than that in ours. It is said that it is covered by Wuling Mountain, and it is said that there is earthy atmosphere at the bottom of Wuling Mountain, so the climate in Ningling is much warmer than in the same latitude." Liu Yonggui said with a smile.

"Old Liu, I'm not saying it's hot early, I'm saying do you feel that the weather has been so stuffy and the humidity is too heavy, making people breathless." Zhao Guodong twisted his shirt and fanned it, and only felt that it was sticky and uncomfortable.

"Secretary Zhao, our Ningling three rivers converge, the terrain is relatively low, and the water vapor is steeped under the sunshine. It cannot be dissipated between the valleys in this area. How could it be that there is no hot flash?" Liu Yonggui shook his head, "It's not counting at this time. Waiting for July and August, the smell is long enough. It's much hotter than the Hualin."

"Well, the flower forest is much cooler, especially when walking to the southeastern mountain, which is even cooler and pleasant. When you reach the top of Hulun Mountain, you have to wear a thicker jacket to cover it, otherwise you will have to catch a cold." Zhao Guodong really missed the days in the flower forest, hot springs, quiet forests, mountain streams, canyons, and primeval forests. All of this makes people feel like they are in a paradise and forget all the troubles in the world.

"That's right, there are many mountains and few plains in the Hualin, the forest has good vegetation and less industry, the natural air is fresh and the climate is cool." Liu Yonggui said unaware: "Secretary Zhao has been in Hualin for three years, right?"

"Well, I have had some feelings for Hualin for three years." Zhao Guodong shook his head and pulled the topic back: "Yonggui, you said that Yuexiu River is not long, why is the amount of water so large?"

"Secretary Zhao, you don't know that although the Yuexiu River is short, it gathers several streams in the Wuling Mountains. Later, it came out of the southern end of Canghua. It was not until the lower end of the mountain pass that a Mishan Reservoir built in the 1950s stopped it. As long as it rains in the Wuling Mountains, the water of the Yuexiu River must rise sharply, and the Mishan Reservoir can only block the water speed."

"Mishan Reservoir belongs to Canghua County or is it under the jurisdiction of the Municipal Water Conservancy Bureau?"

"It was originally under the management of the city, but later it was handed over to the county. Mishan Reservoir is a small reservoir, and it is old and has little value." Liu Yonggui did not react for a moment to why Zhao Guodong suddenly cared about Mishan Reservoir.

"The capacity of Mishan Reservoir is small, how big can it block floods?" Zhao Guodong asked back.

"It was originally a horse that was used to develop small hydropower, but after construction, it was difficult to achieve the expected purpose, so it became a pure irrigation reservoir. However, due to the abundant water flow in Wuling Mountains, the Mishan Reservoir rarely stores water. In addition, the design is not very scientific. Many people suggest that a reservoir upstream is more in line with the current flood control and irrigation needs." Liu Yonggui said with a whisper.

Zhao Guodong was thinking about whether there would be any problems in the Mishan Reservoir that would affect the Xijiang River. After all, the Mishan Reservoir is just at the lower end of Canghua County, and the boundary of the Xijiang River is flat, with no obstacles to the ups and downs. If the flood really comes down, there will be no obstacles.

Linghu Chao trotted all the way up the river bank and handed his cell phone to Zhao Guodong, "Secretary-General You's phone number."

Zhao Guodong took the phone call and You Lianxiang informed him that the Party and Government joint meeting was held at 4 o'clock in the afternoon. It was a bit strange that he suddenly notified the Party and Government joint meeting at this time. However, You Lianxiang said that it was arranging the flood prevention work that was urgently notified by the province. He felt a thrill in his heart. Isn't there really something wrong?

The atmosphere in the meeting room of the Municipal Party Committee Standing Committee was a bit solemn. The meeting was held immediately after Huang Ling, Shu Zhigao and Meng Yuan came back to the province for an emergency meeting. There was only one topic. The National Flood Control and the National Meteorological Administration released the latest news that a large-scale heavy rainfall process will occur in the Yangtze River Basin in the near future, and the heavy rainfall process is expected to last for a long time and may exceed expectations. Please make full preparations for flood prevention and control.

"According to the notice of the National Flood Control and the Provincial Flood Control and Prefecture, our Ningling City and the southern Pennzhou City will usher in a large-scale heavy rainfall, which is estimated to last between two and three days. This will have a great impact on all counties in Ningling City. Especially the Wuling Mountains may usher in the first heavy rainfall since the flood season, which may affect many rivers in our city, including Wujiang, Yuexiu River, Cuihe, Jinma River, Guixi, Yunxi, Baitou River, etc. According to the unified deployment of the provincial government, the whole city will enter the flood prevention and rescue period from today. The city has established a flood prevention and rescue command center. The commander shall be the commander of the municipal party committee secretary Huang Ling, the municipal party committee secretary and mayor Comrade Shu Zhigao serves as the deputy commander, and other city leaders serve as members. There is an office under which I serve as the director of the office and Comrade Wang Daolu, the director of the Water Resources Bureau, serves as the deputy director."

Meng Yuan is a middle-aged man with a pretty face in his forties. Zhao Guodong always thinks that this deputy mayor is more suitable for being a teacher or a research scholar. He is always gentle and kind in contact, but he lacks the courage and courage to Zhao Guodong. He says everything he says is a bit of negotiation.

Especially when Zhao Guodong came to discuss the plan for strengthening and elevating the Wujiang River embankment last time, Wang Daolu said he wanted to find Mayor Meng to make a decision. Zhao Guodong took Wang Daolu to find Meng Yuan, and blocked Meng Yuan in Meng Yuan's office. After a few words, Meng Yuan knew that this was a bit unreasonable, but it was not easy to refuse. He could only push the burden to Wang Daolu. In the end, Zhao Guodong forced Wang Daolu to nod. Meng Yuan nodded as if he was relieved, just like Wang Daolu was the deputy mayor in charge and he was the director of the Water Conservancy Bureau.

Meng Yuan briefly introduced the situation and immediately caused a lot of discussion. The Standing Committee members and the Deputy Mayors whispered, obviously feeling that there were not many warnings before, so why did they say things so seriously at once? Although the flood season this year is a bit ahead of schedule, the flood prevention work is being carried out every year and rescue is also being carried out every year. However, it seems that the joint meeting of such a large scale seems to be a little bit of a big deal. Ningling City originally has many rivers, reservoirs and embankments, and the flood control and rescue work is familiar with every year, and has encountered some dangers, but it is the first time that it has been upgraded to this specification to hold a meeting.

"Secretary Huang, Mayor Shu, Lao Meng, is the problem so serious?" Yan Limin frowned. Although he was in a negotiated tone, he still showed a disapproval. "This flood prevention and rescue is being carried out every year, and there are various plans. If you want to say that all kinds of flood prevention materials are reserved in advance. It seems that Xijiang District has deliberately increased the reserves this year. Guodong, right? But this suddenly raised the alert level to such a high level, which almost disrupted the normal work of the entire city. Isn't it a bit too panic?"

Yan Limin's opinion immediately aroused the nodding of the agreement, including Jin Yongjian, Lu Jianmin, Mao Ping, Blue Light, Li Daifu, Fu Juan and others. They were doing flood prevention and rescue every year. Ningling was originally by the river, and it was really a bit of a storm. Everyone was accustomed to it. They made a fuss and felt a little disapproving.

"Secretary Yan, the situation this year is not very different. I am afraid we need to pay great attention from the whole city. According to the analysis of hydrological experts and meteorological experts, my country has received the impact of the El Niño phenomenon this year. Subtropical high pressure will fluctuate repeatedly in my country, which means that the rainy season may be particularly long and precipitation will be much longer than normal years, especially in our Yangtze River Basin, which may be hit by unprecedented heavy rainstorms."

"Our Ningling is located in the hinterland of the Wujiang River system. Many tributaries flow into the Wujiang River in our Ningling territory. Most of these rivers originate from the Wuling Mountains and its extensions. Once the rainfall is concentrated in the Wuling Mountains and the rainfall is particularly heavy, it is very easy to cause concentrated mountain torrents, which poses great threat to our entire Ningling City. Therefore, this must be taken seriously by everyone and must not be taken lightly. This is also the main reason why the province has summoned Secretary Huang and Mayor Shu back to Andu for a meeting."

Meng Yuan was a little anxious. When he went to the Provincial Fighting Headquarters to learn about the situation, several experts from the Provincial Fighting Headquarters specifically reminded him that Ningling, Lanshan, and Tangjiang were afraid that the three cities of Ningling, Lanshan and An were most likely to be hit by heavy rains, and the possibility of floods was the greatest. If they were not taken seriously, they would probably suffer unprecedented disasters.

"Lao Meng, the climate may be a bit abnormal this year, but has our department made various arrangements in the early stage? Now it has been so nervous that almost all of our cadres have put down other tasks and devoted themselves to flood prevention and rescue work. This is nothing. The problem is what we need to do at this stage? Prepare flood prevention materials? It has been prepared and inspected river defense facilities. This also requires professionals to check it. And I remember that the last meeting was when Comrade Guodong also proposed to strengthen the inspection and reinforcement and maintenance of river embankment facilities. Lao Meng, this should have been implemented long ago, right? What else do we need to do now? Can't all cadres in the city stay at the unit and wait for it to rain?"

Yan Limin looked down on Mayor Meng, who looked like a nerdy person, spoke in a quiet voice, like a newly graduated college student. He couldn't say anything for a long time and could only read the text. If you want to explain something clearly, you have to think carefully about how to convince everyone. Just convey the spirit of the province like this. Who can't? The question is how to implement the spirit of the province now and how to do it?

"Secretary Yan's statement makes sense. The key is what we need to do now. Didn't Mayor Meng just say that the heavy rain may come tomorrow. I think our city probably has to have an overall emergency plan, and we have to consider what if the flood is more serious than we imagined, what should all units of our municipal government do? I'm afraid we have to organize it to go to the front line. At least we have to organize a plan now to determine who is responsible for which area and who is responsible for what to do, so as not to be in a mess."
