Binjiang Police Affairs Chapter 955 636: A Wealth of Talent! (Part 2)

"There's no ti to send soone to familiarize themselves with the river and road conditions now. It's best to arrange for an experienced comrade to co over. Better safe than sorry, in case you face a major ergency on your side, having a guide ensures we can provide tily support."

"Secretary Han, I don't even know how to thank you all..."

"What's there to thank? We're here to handle ergencies."

Great kindness needs no thanks, and there's no ti to express gratitude now.

Master Yan nodded and asked the question that the county leaders were most concerned about: "Secretary Han, the evacuated citizens have many inconveniences outside. They miss ho dearly. Secretary Yuan and County Magistrate Huang commissioned to ask you, when can the evacuated citizens return ho?"

Yesterday afternoon, Master Xi said we needed to wait 21 hours.

Now 12 hours have passed, and from the progress of the ergency work and the recent consultations with Master Xu, Master Yao, and Master Sun, the breach is basically under control.

Han Yu weighed the situation for a mont, then looked up and said, "They can go ho now."

"That's great. I'll go out and call Secretary Yuan and County Magistrate Huang to report."

"Director Ge, we also need to report to the City Flood Control Command. Please call Mayor Shen."

"Alright."

Just as Master Yan and Old Ge walked out of the tent, Feng Qingsong sat down and asked, "Commander, what are we doing today?"

Han Yu, while inviting him to have breakfast, smiled and said, "We're like a firefighting team now, continuing to deal with the current ergencies while waiting for the Command Center to dispatch us."

"That's typical police talk as soon as you open your mouth."

"Speaking of which, we have quite a few public security police in our battalion. Although the Road and Bridge Company is the main force for our battalion in dealing with ergencies, in fact, our battalion wasn't ford based on the Road and Bridge Company. It was ford based on water police, Changhang navigation police, Port Supervision, Customs, Fishery Administration, and other water law enforcent units, especially on the foundation of water rescue teams."

"Commander, does that an we're half colleagues?"

"Pretty much, I often deal with your Navy."

"Really?"

"Truly, I've run errands and done odd jobs for your Navy, escorted submarines in and out of the Yangtze River, visited an observation station on a small island in the East Sea, and even accompanied city leaders to visit the Linghai Boat nad after our Linghai."

Seeing the Navy Major's delighted expression, Han Yu added with a smile, "There was an elder who watched grow up, sharing your last na, Feng. He was also in the Navy, once the youngest ship captain and the youngest deputy division commander."

Feng Qingsong curiously asked, "Which fleet was that senior from?"

"East Sea Fleet, but he transferred early on and served as the director at the Binjiang Branch of the Yangtze Port Supervision Bureau for many years, later transferred to Hanwu, and after that to Cosco, now he's retired."

"Retired?"

"Yes."

There are many things to do next.

Han Yu didn't have ti to chat further, finished his bowl of porridge, and got to the point: "Captain Feng, even though your team has few people, you will play an important role in the upcoming ergencies. You must use this strength where it counts!"

"Commander, how are we even considered strong? Not to be laughed at, we don't even know what we can do?"

"There is much to be done."

Han Yu put down his chopsticks and said quite seriously and solemnly, "The water level remains high, the dike is subrged, and there will be more and more piping risks. If leaks can be found in ti, yesterday's afternoon collapse could be averted. Locating leaks and sealing them requires diving, so you must be prepared ntally to be on standby as 'firefighters.'"

Feng Qingsong responded promptly, "Yes!"

"The water level can't stay this high indefinitely; it will recede eventually. The weather is so hot that when the water level drops, there's a chance that the dike will crack, and that's equally dangerous. At that point, we'll need you to dive and check below the water's surface for cracks."

"And then?"

"We'll formulate ergency response plans based on the actual situation. When needed, you'll dive to repeatedly inspect, and maybe even assist in ergency asures."

Han Yu paused, then continued, "Compared to cracks in the dike, cracks in structures like reservoirs and gates made of reinforced concrete are more dangerous. Particularly, reservoir dam cracks are very serious. The dam is high, and the water pressure is imnse, which makes safeguarding efforts more difficult.

Our Linghai Developnt Zone has brought in an underwater engineering company. I called Mayor Shen this morning. Mayor Shen has asked the company's boss who is very supportive of our work, and he has arranged for an experienced underwater construction expert to co by plane to guide us."

"Also a diver?"

"Not just a diver, but also soone who has left your Navy."

"That's great."

"As for simple cracking ergencies, we have several ergency plans and even brought a set of grouting equipnt. Later, I will have Master Sun find you. He's an expert in construction. You two can discuss whether to assign a few people to form two special teams for cracking ergencies."

"Alright."

...

After arranging work for the diving squad, Han Yu did not take ti to bathe or sleep and, along with Master Dai and Yang Jianbo, walked to the tent set up by the 132nd regint.

So warriors were washing up, while others squatted on the dike having breakfast.

Han Yu asked Battalion Commander Wu not to gather the warriors, but stood in front of everyone with a smile and said, "Comrades, I am here to recruit. We urgently need comrades with special skills. As long as you et our employnt standards, you can stay, which ans after five days you won't need to swap defenses with the main unit."

Yesterday, the military commander said to pull out part of the 132nd regint to assist the "Hong Kong Garrison" in ergencies, and everyone was very happy and excited.
