Fang Laoshi was in pain, his mouth pursed, and his face showed embarrassment. He opened his mouth to speak, but Xue Xiang waved his hand to stop him: "Stop apologizing nonsense, and hurry up and say the truth, I don't have time to waste time with you."
.”
Fang Laoshi gave up his intention of apologizing and said anxiously: "My surname is Fang, County Magistrate Xue. If it weren't for the unforeseen circumstances, how could I do this to you, the great benefactor of my life?"
The thing is like this, before the big earthquake happened, our Laoguankou was a branch of the Songhua River. The water was so powerful that not only the water bags in our Huayuan area, but also the entire eastern half of Liaodong Province relied on this water supply.
Therefore, when the levee connecting our Xiaoshan County was built, not only a water observation station was set up nearby, but also a warehouse was set up. All the materials for the berm were also prepared in the warehouse. However, the levee was built extremely solidly.
More than ten
There have been no dangers in years, so the materials in the warehouse have never been used. However, since the earthquake, the status of the old irrigation port is no longer as important as before, and without the Songhua River irrigation, flooding will occur.
The chance of saving has greatly decreased, so not only the water station for observing the water level has been withdrawn, but also the warehouse has been sealed and has never been used again. Honestly, the reason why we did not say that it could not be saved before, but insisted on saying it now, is because we are afraid of you Xue County
I can’t make up my mind for a long time!”
Xue Xiang never expected that there was such a secret in it! However, the person who was listening was honestly afraid that he would not make up his mind, so he was playing tricks on him. He was still annoyed and cursed: "Fart, I don't make up my mind, how can I follow the boss?"
Going here to get involved, besides, I can't make up my mind, what does it have to do with repairing the berm? Aren't I just asking the comrades to do their work?"
"Lao Fang was afraid that you wouldn't dare to use the materials in the warehouse and that you wouldn't dare to take responsibility. That's why I had to wait until I dug tens of thousands of bags of earth and made you reluctant to give up before I came up with the matter of the materials in the warehouse.
I just want you to make up your mind and open the warehouse."
At some point, Feng Kaishan walked up behind the two of them and said these words. Apparently, he heard what Xue Xiang and Fang Laoshi said just now.
Xue Xiang woke up from his dream and marveled at the cunningness of the peasants. At the same time, he said anxiously: "Is it possible that this warehouse contains some treasures? Isn't it just the supplies that were stored for the embankment? It is being used for the embankment right now. You know, Fang
Why are you going around in such a big circle? Just tell me directly that we are just opening a warehouse, and you are just wasting your time here."
Feng Kaishan said: "Mr.
…”
Feng Kaishan didn't finish his words. The idea was realized.
Then go to the countryside to summon the young men. Lao Fang, you quickly lead the people to destroy the warehouse. I will direct the filling of the soil here first. Don’t worry, hold on for a while. The big team should be here!"
After Xue Xiang said something, Feng Kaishan and Fang Laoshi responded loudly and took their orders.
The night wind is getting colder and the night is getting darker. At this moment, on the berm, hundreds of men are using their strength to push the rolling earth bags towards the gap. Under the berm, there are only more than a hundred people left, who are constantly pushing toward the berm.
Woven bags filled with earthwork were being transported on the embankment, and this group of people all had a common sign, that is, they all had long ropes as thick as their thumbs around their waists connected to a thick cable suspended in the embankment.
The people under the embankment are tied up in this way because they have no choice but to do so. After all, everyone on the embankment, whether supported or tied up, has a suspended cable to draw on. Even if the embankment breaks, their ability to escape is greatly increased. Under the embankment, the terrain is
It was already low, and if the force of the downward surge was successful, if there was no protection under the embankment, death was almost certain. Therefore, Xue Xiang prepared for a rainy day and asked hundreds of people under the embankment to tie up long ropes and tie them around their waists.
Although hundreds of people were busy on and off the embankment, they were in an orderly manner. Because they were afraid that the large number of people would overwhelm the embankment that was not yet full, Fang LaoShi suggested, and Xue Xiang agreed, leaving a total of more than 500 people.
It was a strong man who stayed. The original land had been dug long ago, although it may not be enough, but
Together with the sandbags Fang Laoshi brought from the warehouse, the two large pits were filled with tens of thousands of bags overnight. Although the churning lake water dispersed a lot of them, due to the huge number, not only the two deep pits were filled with
After it was filled, even the embankments on the four sides of the deep pit were widened and thickened by the tens of thousands of bags of earth.
When the first ray of sunshine in the morning shone on the embankment, I don’t know who was the first to cheer. Then the young men lying on the ground all over the embankment jumped up or rolled on the spot to express their joy, because yesterday night
The hard work has not been in vain. This great achievement is mixed with some remnants of disaster. Naturally, I am happy about it and cannot stop it.
The golden sunshine shone on Xue Xiang's face. He hadn't closed his eyes for two days and two nights. Although he was extremely tired, at this moment, he felt relaxed for no reason. He was so relaxed that he seemed to be able to fall asleep after falling down. As for what he expected
He didn't care about why the county government's troops didn't arrive quickly. Because at this moment, he was sleepy, and the two eyelids seemed to be magnets for the opposite sex, and they were attracted to each other unconsciously.
Xue Xiang really wanted to fall down on the embankment and sleep. He had never been so sleepy as he was at this moment. It was like a taut spring that suddenly relaxed and what was left was soft.
Unexpectedly, just when Xue Xiang was about to fall to the ground, the embankment under his feet suddenly shook. In an instant, there was a loud bang, and twenty meters to the east, a hole suddenly opened, and a thick water column looked like a giant white dragon.
Rushing down from that opening.
"The embankment has burst!"
"Oh my God! The embankment has burst, everyone needs to run for their lives!"
The screams of this group of people made him regain his clarity immediately.
But when he saw him yelling, he stopped the collapse, and then shouted: "If you want to escape, let me escape. Run in order. Whoever messes with me will be thrown into the water. Anyone who doesn't want to escape, follow me."
Move the bags and block the embankment, I will die here today..."
At this moment, Xue Xiang was really exhausted physically and mentally, with frequent disappointments and despair. However, he was in a desperate situation with no way to retreat, which suddenly aroused the closeness in his heart. After shouting, Xue Xiang broke his waist without saying a word.
He grabbed the two sacks and rushed towards the break. Xue Xiang was so crazy
His move shocked everyone. Suddenly, Fang Laoshi threw away the cable, silently picked up a sandbag, and ran over after Xue Xiang. Then, Feng Kaishan stamped his feet and shouted: "If you are a party member, you will be damned."
Come on!" After speaking, he squatted down, picked up a sack, and ran forward.
In times of crisis, Xue Xiang, Fang Laoshi, and Feng Kaishan used practical actions to stop the collapse. Someone shouted: "Men of Qiaokou Village, do you still have your hands? Magistrate Xue save us?"
Putting aside our lives, we are now fighting to protect our farmland. If we had escaped first, would we still be human beings? Even animals cannot do this..."
Hearing this shout, not one of the more than 300 young men left behind in Qiaokou Village ran away anymore. They turned around, resisted the sacks, and chased forward. The hundreds of people in Qiaokou Village stopped running. They had been killed because of panic earlier.
The people who voted with their feet to flee suddenly
Time stopped the castration, and many people stood in place, not knowing where to go. Suddenly, someone shouted loudly: "If you die, the ball will point upward. If you don't die for tens of millions of years, the county magistrate will not die. Let's compete."
Will the county magistrate pay back the money?"
After this shouting, no one ran away anymore. At this time, the golden sun was shining and the autumn wind was bleak, and I felt a sense of desolation and solemnity. Suddenly, the last few hundred people also immersed themselves in facing the hundreds of people on the embankment.
Thousands of sacks rushed over, but no more noise was made...
But it was said that Xue Xiang was carrying two sacks and rushed to the gap first. When he got closer, he found that the cross-sectional area was not large, only a one-meter-long gap, but the rushing water was leaking like a vast ocean.
If it is not blocked immediately, then break away
He was afraid that he would never be able to recover. Xue Xiang rushed forward, without hesitation, grabbed the two sacks in his hands and threw them towards the fracture. The sacks fell into the water, and with a brush, they seemed to be beaten.
The white dragon rushed away without even a splash.
In an instant, Xue Xiang's expression suddenly changed. Before he could say anything to stop him, Fang Laoshi, Feng Kaishan, and a dozen young men running at the front all threw sandbags at the cross section. There were supposed to be more than a dozen of them.
The sacks fell together and were able to block the not-so-wide opening. But clinker, these many sacks did not stop even for a moment when they reached the break, and were washed into the sandy field downstream.
At this time, Xue Xiang was completely confused. With such a water flow, unless it was a motorcycle, it would be possible to hold it steady, but there was not even a trolley at the moment. How to talk about a motorcycle? What should I do? What should I do? Is it really powerless?
Are you going to die?
Xue Xiang stood still, and countless sacks were dropped, but they were all washed away. Suddenly, Xue Xiang vaguely felt that the berm under his feet began to shake again. In an instant, his eyes turned red, and he made a decision.
.However, without saying a word, he withdrew the rope that was as thick as an ear and an arm on the berm. He exerted all his strength with both arms and shouted loudly, and actually tore the rope off.
Xue Xiang pulled out a piece of cable more than ten meters long, tied it with a fist around his waist, and tied it with a live buckle. Then, he took a dozen sandbags from the hands of the young man who followed closely, one on the left and one on the right.
Both sides of the waist are stacked thickly
Thick sandbags, and then tied the two sandbags tightly with cables, pumping force into his legs, bringing Qi to the Dantian, shouting "get up", he actually dragged the group of sandbags weighing more than a thousand kilograms, and moved step by step towards the gap.
go.
By now, even a fool knows what Xue Xiang is going to do.
Yes, Xue Xiang is trying to block his eyes with his body. Only in this way can there be a chance to block the gap and win valuable time for throwing the bag. To say that Xue Xiang does not necessarily have a noble sentiment or a great moral character,
If you count them carefully, there are quite a few minor flaws, but there is one thing that Xue Xiang always maintains, and that is the conscience of pitying the poor and cherishing the weak. rq!~!
