[Explanation] On the evening of October 10th, under the spillway dam on the north side of the Fenhe National Wetland Park in Jiexiu City, Shanxi Province, a number of firefighters jumped into the dam outlet in turn to carry out "deepening" operations to speed up the wetland park and its neighboring wetland parks. Accumulated flood discharge rate in two villages.

  [Explanation] On October 6, due to continuous rainfall, the water level of the Jiexiu section of the Fenhe River soared, causing flooding. Large areas of water accumulated in the Fenhe National Wetland Park and surrounding villages in Jiexiu. Flooded.

  [Explanation] On the spill dam, a high-power "Dragon Suction" is pumping the accumulated water in the wetland park to the Fenhe River at a drainage rate of 4000 cubic meters per hour.

Not far away, there are more than 60 pumps of different sizes that are also carrying out flood drainage operations.

  In the past two days, the entire village's laborers, some of whom were younger, came out in the morning. They were worried and kept guarding.

  [Explanation] In order to speed up drainage, the dam below the spillway is also draining water.

However, because the concrete at the bottom of the dam outlet is thicker, the drainage speed is affected.

For this reason, Jiexiu City Water Resources Bureau asked the city's fire rescue brigade for help, hoping to dispatch firefighters to deepen the demolition of the concrete at the bottom of the dam outlet.

  [Explanation] At 16:50 that day, the assault team consisting of Zhang Didi, Gao Juntao, and Yang Jinfeng took the lead to jump into the dam outlet, where the water was waist deep. They were dressed in rescue suits and they jumped into the water immediately. Soggy.

  It was the first time that I went down with Comrade Gao Juntao. One was responsible for pressing the handle, and the other was responsible for holding the front handle. Because the current was relatively large and the current was relatively rapid, two people were required to operate it together.

  [Explanation] On the overflow dam, there were three or four villagers who jumped into the outlet of the dam along with the firefighters. They stood behind the firefighters, holding the safety rope firmly with both hands, and building a "buffer wall" with their bodies. , In order to slow down the impact of rapids on firefighters.

  I feel that the villagers are very enthusiastic, and I feel very honored to do this job, and I have the great love of the villagers.

  [Explanation] In order to minimize the time firefighters are immersed in the flood, every half an hour, a firefighter is replaced ashore to rest, and then launching work after half an hour.

  [Explanation] As the water splash caused by the drill bit gets bigger and bigger, the concrete at the outlet of the dam has dropped by more than 20 cm.

At 20:06, the task of chiseling and expanding the outlet of the dam was finally completed.

At present, the depth of stagnant floods in the village has dropped significantly.
