Riverside police

As soon as the large troops left, the river embankment opposite the camp and the No. 3 anchorage about two kilometers away from the camp became brightly lit.

The police barge and the old antique three-story building must be converted into floating dormitories as soon as possible. The reserve officers and soldiers who do not need to go to Beihu to fight the flood, under the command of Han Xiangning, Luo Wenjiang, administrator Liu Degui and others, moved the desks and chairs on the two barges. Move ashore!

According to the previously formulated plan, the public security pontoon vessel retains the command and dispatch room on the second floor, and the old antique only retains a large conference room, which can be used for meetings and as a canteen.

Director Ge is now both a senior expert and the leader of the publicity reporting team, so naturally he has to go with the reporters and the large army. Secretary Wang and Director Ge, both senior experts, have their own division of labor. He has too much preparation work to do, so he can only go to Beihu with the fleet.

When he saw that Han Xiangning planned to transform the small conference room on the second floor into a dormitory, he not only expressed strong opposition, but also requisitioned three dormitories that were being renovated.

"Secretary Wang, what are you doing!"

"The conference room can be used for both office work and reception. As for the three dormitories, they are reserved for the publicity and reporting team."

"You are going to fight the flood. What business are you going to do and what kind of reception are you going to receive?"

“Who said we don’t need to work or receive people to fight against floods?”

Secretary Wang didn't want to explain too much to Han Xiangning, so he said confidently: "I know you are worried that the comrades will have no place to live, but it is not necessary. The second company is a floating company, there are so many ships, and there are crew cabins on board, and accommodation for the officers and soldiers of the second company They can solve the problem themselves, and when the time comes, they can even arrange for twenty or thirty people to go to their place to squeeze in."

Han Xiangning grimaced: "Even if twenty or thirty people are diverted, the dormitories on the two barges are still not enough."

"It's definitely enough. I asked Mr. Xianyu, and he said that when he got to Beihu, he would become a firefighter and perform rescue missions 24 hours a day. In fact, both the construction workers on the shore and on the water worked in two shifts. configured.”

"What does this have to do with dormitories and beds?"

"Of course it does matter. Working two shifts means that two people can share a bed. You go to work and I sleep, and I go to work and you sleep. The members of the water company have their own crew cabins, so we only need to prepare 90 beds. enough."

Secretary Wang smiled and continued: "Don't move the desks and chairs in the public security duty room on the first floor ashore. Leave them to your Changhang Logistics Support Team. Liu Degui and Zhang Erxiao will work with your Changhang Logistics Support Team when the time comes." Joint office. The two dormitories to the east of the public security duty room must be reserved for the comrades in charge of logistics in the battalion and your long-distance aviation system.

The desks and chairs in the port supervisory duty room on the first floor should not be moved ashore. They should be left for Deputy Mayor Shen and Deputy Minister Li to work. Of the two dormitories to the west of the duty room of the Hong Kong Supervisory Authority, one is reserved for Deputy Mayor Shen and Deputy Minister Li, and the other is reserved for our expert team as guest rooms. "

Han Xiangning, Luo Wenjiang and Zhang Lan were stunned for a moment after hearing this, wondering why on earth you were going to Beihu, and why they even prepared a guest room for you...

Secretary Wang didn't care so much, he took out his notebook and looked at it, and then said: "Since leaders and media reporters have to work, they can't live without office equipment. I just made an agreement with Huang Chu, and he will let your Hong Kong Regulatory Bureau send a computer. , a printer and a copier are coming over. I will go ashore later to do some work. When the modern office equipment is delivered, you can help me receive it."

Zhang Lan asked dumbfounded: "Secretary Wang, what do you need a computer printer for, and who knows how to use it?"

"Xiao Zhang, you are still doing back office work. Flood fighting is also a job. If your superiors want some reporting materials, does it look formal to type them out on a computer? As for the typists, Director Huang will arrange them, and let's talk about logistics support. There are a lot of things to do and a lot of materials to sort out.”

"Well, you are the senior expert, you have the final say!"

"Of course I have the final say on the ship and logistics. Our expert team has a division of labor. And the division of labor between me and Director Ge was approved by Secretary Ye, Mayor Qian and Mayor Shen."

"Does Xianyu know?"

"He is responsible for emergency rescue construction. He is going to the front line. He does not need to worry about these trivial matters."

"Secretary Wang, my dad is also a senior expert. What is he responsible for?"

Secretary Wang said seriously: "He is responsible for meteorological support and is in charge of the meteorological team."

Han Xiangning sneered and said: "He is the only one in the weather support team, let him take charge of himself?"

"He can train talents, such as your nephew."

"I'm not even interested in meteorology, let alone Dongdong."

"Then there's no other way. He has no one to worry about but himself. I'm leaving first. I have a lot of things to do."

What can happen to you?

You are just looking for trouble, and you are just causing trouble for us.

Just as Han Xiangning was wondering what Secretary Ye and Mayor Qian were thinking, they actually let them go to Beihu together and entrusted them with important tasks, when Wu Chu's call suddenly came from the intercom.

"Han Chu Han Chu, I am Lao Wu. Please answer when you receive it."

"Received, received, Wu Chu, please speak."

"Please quickly look at the drafts of the public security barge and the management committee barge and calculate the tonnage quickly. We are forming a fleet. The drafts and tonnage of the two parallel ships must be as balanced as possible, otherwise it will affect the push efficiency."

"Okay, I'll take a look right now and make calculations after reading it."

What is being organized is a double-gang push fleet, that is, unpowered barges and barges are tied together with cables to form a double-row, multi-section "one-stop" fleet.

A high-power tugboat pushes up behind the fleet, and a high-power tugboat pushes up against the left or right side of the front barge. The tugboat in front can not only make the pushing fleet sail faster, but also adjust with the tugboat pushing behind it. The course of the fleet.

As for why the tugboat is not allowed to tow directly in front of the fleet, it is because even if a high-power tug like Linggang Tow 001 is used, the fleet's speed on the water will not exceed 6 kilometers per hour.

In comparison, pushing is more efficient.

As long as two high-power tugboats are pushed forward, the fleet planned to be fully loaded with 25,000 tons can reach a water speed of 10 to 12 kilometers per hour, which can increase the speed by 40%.

The total voyage from Sanhe to Jingzhou is about 1,550 kilometers, and the logistics support fleet and transport fleet can only arrive within five to six days if they are organized into a push fleet.

Forming a fleet is not as simple as tying unpowered barges and barges together with cables or wire ropes. There are strict requirements for the draft and load of each ship, and the resistance of the fleet when sailing must be reduced as much as possible.

Even when grouping, it should be neat and uniform.

For example, the "two dragons" fixed together in parallel, the center line must be straight, and the tugboat must be aligned with the center line when it is on top of the back...

Han Xiangning didn't dare to waste a moment and hurriedly picked up the flashlight to look at the water line.

At the same time, Anchorage No. 3 has become a water base for large-scale barge operations and command fleet formation.

A large amount of equipment and supplies need to be loaded onto the ship, and it is too troublesome to wait to pass through the lock. Moreover, there are not so many self-propelled ships to be found at the same time, and there are not so many tugboats to tow them.

I originally planned to go to the Jianghaihe Port for loading, but the Jianghaihe Port is not only a port, but also the channel for the Jianghai River to enter and leave the Yangtze River. Towing so many unpowered barges and pontoons will affect the navigation of cargo ships entering and exiting the Yangtze River and inland rivers.

Several terminals in Linghai Port are still under construction, and only a few prototypes have been revealed. Loading and unloading operations will not be carried out until at least this time next year.

Wu Haili and Gu Pengfei discussed it and decided to take advantage of the existing transportation infrastructure and equipment and ask the Lingda Automobile Ferry Company for assistance so that all equipment and emergency supplies would be transported by car first.

The trucks sent by the military division in the afternoon came in handy. They pulled the equipment and materials that could be hauled to Lingda Automobile Ferry. Under the arrangement of the Lingda Automobile Ferry General Dispatch, they drove the trucks that had been incorporated into the reserve battalion as soon as possible. The ferry and steam ferry transported the convoy filled with various equipment and supplies to anchorage No. 3 and berthed on the left side of the floating crane.

Lingdadu 22 is a side-drive ferry. There are very few buildings on the deck and they are on the left side of the deck, which will not affect the hoisting operation.

The crane drivers and floating crane dock workers on the floating crane ship either use the crane to load the equipment and materials on the truck directly onto the barge berthed on the right side of the floating crane ship, or set up two belt conveyors more than 30 meters long. , delivering bags of supplies directly to the cargo hold of the barge.

The efficiency was also very high. In a short while, the nine tons of rice just purchased from Longgang Rice Industry were loaded onto the comprehensive supply ship.

When working on the river, safety comes first.

Supervision 39 and Binjiang Public Security Bureau 002 are flashing lights and sirens, guarding the upper and lower reaches of the operating waters.

Only when you stand high can you see far.

Wu Haili, deputy battalion commander and commander of the second company, stood in the crane cab of the floating crane, overlooking the floating gas station towed by Linggang 001 from Bailong Port. He raised the intercom: "Stationmaster Li, I am Stationmaster Li. Wu Haili, please answer when you receive it."

"I received it at the gas station. Please tell me, Chu Wu."

"How much oil do you have on board? Please report the gross tonnage and draft."

"I only have diesel and a little lubricating oil here. The diesel is 685 tons, the lubricating oil is less than two tons, the total tonnage is about 900 tons, and the draft is two meters and three meters."

Gu Pengfei, deputy commander-in-chief of water navigation safety, who was huddled in the corner of the cab, immediately wrote down the data.

Wu Chu looked back and asked, "No gasoline?"

"Wu Chu, it's not like you don't know who on the river can fill up gasoline. Our gas station hasn't filled up gasoline for several years."

"But we have three off-road vehicles, the three that Mr. Hao and his friends drove there. They will not be without oil by then. You should think of a way quickly and prepare two or three tons of gasoline."

"I can only use big oil drums to haul it to the company. I can't free up the oil tank here."

"Hurry up and contact your company. Your company must have large oil drums. I will arrange a car for you to pull them."

"No problem contacting you, but there's something I want to ask."

"What's up?"

"How will the oil be settled in the end?"

"Go to the administrator and ask the administrator to find Huang Chu."

"What if Huang Chu doesn't admit it? Wu Chu, it's not that I don't support flood control. If I really don't support it, we won't move. You know the situation of our gas station. Our oil tanker was towed from the time it was built to Bailong Hong Kong has never moved its nest, this is the first time!"

"I know, don't worry about the oil money. Xianyu has used so much oil from you before, but when did he not give you money? He won't make it difficult for you, and he won't make it difficult for your leader."

"Okay, I'm relieved now."

"One more thing."

Wu Haili looked over at the water plant ships and cooking boats that were being marshalled, and said: "To ensure safety, Director Gu and I decided to put your oil tanker at the front. Next to you are the barges loading stone, and behind you are a few loading ships. Steel pipe fasteners and barges carrying non-flammable and explosive equipment.”

Station Commander Li said without hesitation: "It doesn't matter. We obey orders and follow instructions. If we are asked to take the lead, we will take the lead."

"Why are you taking the lead? It's as if you can drive to Beihu by yourself."

Wu Haili smiled and said bluntly: "Director Gu and I are worried about your fire safety. Stationmaster Li, let me make it clear to you. If there is a fire in your gas station, we will disconnect the cable as soon as possible. , let your gas station be separated from the fleet!"

Stationmaster Li asked with a wry smile: "Then what should we do?"

"Let's see if we can save ourselves first. If we can't control the fire, jump into the river immediately. The alert and guard team will launch rescue operations in time, and Linggang Tuo 001 will also launch rescue operations in time."

"You want us to jump into the river?"

"If you don't jump into the river, do you want to live and die with your oil tanker?"

"Okay, we'll take care of fire safety."

"It's not just you who need to pay attention, we will also pay attention. We will arrange to send a fire supervisor to your ship later."

"That's pretty much it." Stationmaster Li finally felt a little more at ease. After thinking about it, he asked curiously: "Wu Chu, Mayor Shen and Xianyu should have arrived in Jiangcheng by now, right?"

"Arrived early, now we are on the Jianghe Expressway."

"Did they see the general?"

"See you."

It's really rare and strange. The commander of a provincial military region is usually a major general. A major general is only equivalent to a provincial leader, and may only be equivalent to a deputy S commander.

Wu Haili has worked in the Hong Kong Supervision Bureau for so many years and has met several provincial leaders. He said lightly: "It's raining over in Jiangcheng. Xiaoyu called and said that the provincial military commander and political commissar didn't want them to get wet in the rain, and they didn't want to be delayed. They didn’t have time to get out of the car and line up. I just got in the car and said a few words to them, then cleared the way in front of them and sent them all the way to the entrance of Jianghe Expressway.”

Stationmaster Li had watched Xiaoyu grow up and asked, "Did Xiaoyu say anything else?"

"He said that the Port Authority's big truck was loaded with so much equipment and supplies that it couldn't drive very fast. It started to rain again. Although there were military division vehicles clearing the way in front and police cars behind, the convoy was still traveling at a very fast speed. It’s very slow and can only maintain 60 kilometers per hour. It may be difficult to get there within 24 hours.”

"We should be able to drive faster when the rain stops."

"It won't get up soon even if the rain stops."

"Why can't you get up quickly?"

"There is no expressway from Hefei to Hanwu. Xiaoyu called Mr. Hao. Mr. Hao said that the road condition from Hefei to Lu'an is not very good. After passing Lu'an, you have to cross the Dabie Mountains, and the mountain road is more difficult to walk. Normally. Under such circumstances, the more than 300 kilometers from Hefei to Hanwu will take 13 hours to drive."
