[Explanation] At 0:00 on July 12, the water level of the Xingzi Station, the iconic hydrological station of Poyang Lake, reached 22.53 meters, exceeding the historical extreme value of the flood level of 22.52 meters in 1998. The flood situation is grim, and it is urgent to fight the flood. Since accepting the mission on July 8, officers and men of the Jiangxi Corps of the Armed Police have fought for 7 days and nights in various dangerous situations in the province. In the days of fighting floods, the armed police officers and soldiers who fought hard were particularly sensitive to the two numbers "98".
At 8 a.m. on July 13th, the Fuzhou Detachment of the Jiangxi Corps of the Armed Police received an order and quickly dispatched 50 anti-flood squads to the Fengfu Lianwei to start rescue work.

I have a deep memory of this flood, because every time a flood occurs, the people’s property interests have also suffered a great loss. Now as a party member and a soldier, here I am guarding the safety of a party, and also in our hometown. Groups of people like us are guarding our hometown. We must do our best to ensure that the dam is absolutely safe.

In 1998, Lin Liqiang, who was only 12 years old at that time, watched the fish pond and four houses in his home flooded but could do nothing. Twenty-two years later, he and his comrades on the front line of fighting the floods together guarded the safety of the lives and property of the people in the disaster-stricken areas in Yugan.

In 1998, the flood flooded my hometown. At that time, I was still young and could only watch the flood raging without help. Today, I am an armed police officer and I joined the team to participate in this anti-flood rescue mission, which has fulfilled my wish for more than 20 years.
