The flood affected a large area and lasted too long, resulting in the affected area of farmland reaching 334 million mu. 6.85 million houses collapsed due to floods, 4 150 people died due to natural disasters, and 29 provinces were affected, resulting in serious economic losses. It was not until September 25th that the water level in the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River fell below the warning level.
Every data is not an insignificant statistical result, but behind it is a real disaster and suffering. It is hard for people who have never experienced it to imagine how scared people can be when the flood hits their faces. Fortunately, unity and cohesion have been a fine tradition of the Chinese nation since ancient times. In order to save more people, the people's liberation army fought day and night in the front line of flood control, and Chinese people also actively donated money to tide over the difficulties.
"Man on the embankment" was the most tragic slogan of that year, and it was also a heroic hymn. Many touching stories emerged during the flood fighting. Soldiers eat and sleep on the levee, but dare not sleep for long. They got up after only resting 1 hour and continued to carry materials for emergency rescue. The old lady who is over 60 years old in Guangdong buys mung beans with the money saved and cooks mung bean soup for the soldiers every day. ...
Natural disasters are ruthless, and there is love on earth. When the flood raged, a 7-year-old girl clung to the trunk for survival instinct. She stayed up all night and finally waited for "Uncle Dai" to save her from danger. She is Jison, a peasant girl from Jiayu County, Xianning City, Hubei Province, who is known as the "little hero against floods".
The scene of Jison saving lives has been fixed in the minds of countless people in China, and it is still touching to recall after many years. The life of the Jiangshan family was originally quiet, but one night in August 1, the river bank of Pazhouwan in Jiayu County burst, and the Jiangshan family was surrounded by floods. Jison climbed on a poplar tree.
Looking at the raging flood at her feet, Jison knew that as long as she relaxed and fell, her life would be gone. People will show great strength in despair. Jison's weak body stood the test of life and death overnight. A rescue soldier on the assault boat found Jison, quickly drove the assault boat, put his arm around Jison and took her away on the boat.
Jison couldn't help crying after being reunited with his father, grandfather and sister. Her grandmother and mother were ruthlessly killed by the flood, and the dead have gone, leaving only the living sad. People marveled at Jison's strength and asked her why she persisted. Jison later gave the answer in an interview. She believes that as long as she doesn't give up, the PLA uncle will come to save her.
At an early age, Jison quietly planted a dream in her heart after experiencing danger and welcoming the joy of rebirth. She thanked the soldiers for saving their lives and worshipped their spirit of putting life and death at risk and trying to save lives. She also wants to be a policeman who serves the people and repay the society.
The growth of Jison has attracted much attention, and caring people from all sides have lent a helping hand to support Jison's study and research. Jison has been working hard. 0/3 years after the disaster, Jison was admitted to the investigation major in railway police college. Today, Jison has officially become a policeman of Xiangyang Railway in Hubei. After many years, she finally put on a five-star uniform.
Ordinary life is the most precious thing for those who come out of nightmares. Jison has not made any shocking achievements, but her present career has delighted countless people. Every weekday morning, Jison tidies up his uniform in front of the mirror. When she came to her post, she helped passengers with their luggage, answered their questions and helped them solve all kinds of difficulties.
She works silently and returns to the society with her own strength, without any negligence. Seeing passengers holding children in their arms, Jison often can't help playing with them. She will always remember how her uncles saved themselves when she was a child.
Jison said, "I am a farmer's child. The flood of 1998 has changed my life trajectory, but I know that my destiny can only be changed by myself. " Later, Jison married his colleagues, formed a new family and gave birth to a lovely daughter. The family is happy.
From Jison, we can see the tenacity of China people. She is lucky and unfortunate, but she has never been intimidated by difficulties and shadows, but has been living an active life. She grew up under the care of society, which in turn returned to society. This innocent childlike innocence makes many people feel ashamed.
1998 the flood was terrible, but in the face of the disaster, the people of China will always unite as one, and no natural disaster can crush the courage engraved in the bones of the nation. From Jison and the flood fighters, we can see the powerful force of national cohesion. After thousands of years, the Chinese nation has never been knocked down by any difficulties and hardships, but has become more and more tenacious. Everyone in China can be proud that he was born in China.
