Binjiang Police Affairs-Chapter 927 - 620: There Are Rules for Publicity!

The night was deep, but the military tent set up on the embankment was brightly lit.

Hao Qiusheng was forcing himself to stay awake, organizing the officers of divisions temporarily without emergency tasks and those not required to lead patrols for embankment risks, to review the process of handling the major danger at the Old Temple Gate and summarize the shortcomings in the emergency engineering.

Hao Qiusheng only had to be responsible for emergency construction.

Han Yu was not only responsible for emergency construction; on the way, he had to ensure the safety of the main forces, emergency equipment, and materials. He hadn't slept well for days and could not hold on much longer. After dinner, he forced himself to take a bath once ashore, and then collapsed in the tent, sleeping soundly.

It's worth mentioning that Zhang Erxiao was even more exhausted than Han Yu. He actually fell asleep while briefing the logistics support personnel about the next day's work, dozing off against the seat of the off-road vehicle.

His logistics support work was meticulous, earning the respect of everyone in the camp, high and low.

The banks were full of mosquitoes, and if he were moved to a tent with a mosquito net to sleep, it might wake him up. Everyone wanted him to sleep more and worried he would be awakened by mosquitoes, so they voluntarily took turns to help him drive away mosquitoes.

Deputy County Magistrate Wang of Lingjiang County, though very tired and sleepy, did not dare to rest just like that.

The flood peak was sent off, but the danger didn't leave with it.

Several dangers appeared on the Yangtze River embankment in the Lingjiang section, and there were even more dangers on the inland river embankments. At this moment, thousands in the county were involved in emergency efforts.

More importantly, when the floodwaters recede, it is just as dangerous as when the flood peak arrives.

For instance, certain embankment sections that were scoured and hollowed out by the rapid floodwaters during the flood peak could hold up somewhat when water levels and speeds were high. If the waters receded suddenly, there would be no water pressure to support them, making the hollowed out sections prone to collapse.

In short, the Linghai Reserve Camp, as this fresh force for flood prevention and emergency response, cannot leave at this time!

Deputy County Magistrate Wang looked at Deputy Mayor Shen, who was yawning, with anticipation and asked with a bitter face, "Mayor Shen, can you leave tomorrow?"

"I don't want to just leave like this. Needless to say, those two excavators, if they could work a few more hours, could prepare more earthworks and build more cofferdams for you. But we are reserve forces now, military orders are like mountains. Since our superiors redirected us, we cannot linger even for a moment."

"I'll report to Secretary Zheng, and ask him to call the City Flood Control Command for instructions."

"Alright, as long as the superiors agree, it wouldn't be a problem to work not just a few more hours, but even a few more days."

"Thank you."

"There's no need to thank us. You are in the middle and upper reaches of the Yangtze River, we are at the Yangtze River tail. We all drink from the same river. You are Lingjiang, we are Linghai. We share the name Ling, and we are as close as brothers. Can we stand idly by when our brother is in trouble?"

"Thank you, thank you, Mayor Shen."

Deputy County Magistrate Wang was moved to tears and took out his phone to call Secretary Zheng, choking up.

Secretary Zheng couldn't believe it was true and immediately called the City Flood Control Command for instructions, asking them not to withdraw the Linghai reinforcements, even making it clear that the nearly one million people of Lingjiang would never agree.

However, no matter what he said, it was of no use.

The superiors reiterated only two things: first, the Linghai Reserve Camp must leave, and second, he should look at the big picture!

Secretary Zheng had no choice and was on his way to the Old Temple Embankment with County Magistrate Li.

He and County Magistrate Li were carrying banners and the official seals of the County Committee and Lingjiang County People's Government, here to personally present banners to the brotherly City Committee and Municipal Government, which had been of great help, and the Linghai Reserve Camp, which had contributed much. They wanted County Magistrate Li to represent the Lingjiang County People's Government in signing and sealing the Linghai Reserve Camp's Old Temple emergency project's completion documents.

Talking about engineering documentation, Master Yao was most troubled.

When Director Ge initially suggested organizing engineering documentation, he found it interesting.

But now Director Ge actually requested six copies of the engineering documentation: one for the Lingjiang County Committee and County Government, one for the 105th Army 404th Division managing the Linghai Reserve Camp, one for the Changhang Bureau, one for the Yangtze Flood Control Headquarters, one for the Beihu Province Flood Control Command, and one to be archived back in Linghai later.

This was six full sets, not six pages.

A complete set of engineering documents, totaling over forty pages, required considerable content to be filled!

Fortunately, the Road and Bridge Company had two brothers who could do the documentation, and Master Xu eagerly assisted, otherwise relying on him alone to organize until dawn wouldn't make it sorted.

While Master Yao was organizing engineering documentation, inwardly considering how Salted Fish, upon waking, should find two people back home specifically (to do the documentation), Director Ge was in the tent of the propaganda group, holding a meeting with Reporter Wang and other media reporters, and publicity officers from various units.

"Can't mention Binjiang?"

"No."

"What about Linghai?"

"Not allowed either!"

Old Ge turned to look at Master Dai sitting next to him, speaking seriously and earnestly: "Folks, from the moment we entered the Beihu Province's boundary, we could no longer be the Linghai Reserve Camp of the Jiangnan Province Military District Army Reserve Division Binjiang Reserve Group. Instead, we must accept the leadership of a certain Air Force unit, becoming a Jiangnan Province Military District Reserve Camp under their command."

Reporter Wang from the Binjiang Daily was at a loss, asking: "Accept the leadership of a certain unit's reserve camp, how are we supposed to report on this?" 𝚏𝕣𝕖𝚎𝚠𝚎𝚋𝚗𝐨𝐯𝕖𝕝.𝕔𝐨𝕞

"I know such reporting will confuse the readers, but due to confidentiality and publicity discipline, it can only be reported this way."

Old Ge sighed, helplessly making a comparison: "All of you must have seen the People's Liberation Army Daily; irrespective of which unit is being reported on or publicized, the unit name only mentions up to the First Level military region. For the Provincial Military District, it's only specific to which Province, and further down it becomes a certain unit."
