From July 18th to 20th, Hebei suffered the largest and most intense rainfall since the start of the flood season this year. Majiazhuang Township, located in Wu'an City, Handan City, Hebei Province, was hit by heavy rains. Many villages were flooded, connecting Songjiajing Liansan bridges in three villages, namely Majiazhuang, Majiazhuang and Xinzhuang, were washed away by floods. Majiazhuang Nanyao Village was seriously damaged by the flood. Two river bridges in the village were damaged, one river bridge was broken, and one bridge hole was damaged. The village was blocked, some houses and roads were washed away, and there was serious water accumulation. All crops such as corn, millet, and wheat were flooded, and there was no harvest.
What was even worse was that the power supply line in the village was struck by lightning and the power grid was cut off, making it impossible to communicate with others. After contacting the outside world, the situation of the trapped and injured people was unclear. Under this situation, firefighter Shen Zhiqiang, who was returning to his hometown to visit relatives, volunteered to lead his family and villagers to evacuate more than 100 trapped people and clear the bridge holes to eliminate the danger.

Heavy rain hit, leading the family to evacuate and rescue the trapped people
"Qiangzi, come out and take a look, it seems that the water is rising," Shen Zhiqiang's mother said anxiously to her son at about 16:00 on July 19.
How is it possible? It has been raining for several days. Why is it rising now? With doubts, Shen Zhiqiang came to the village river to check. You never know the full extent of things until you see them. It rained heavily at this time, and the upper reaches of the river was blocked by the silt washed down by the flood. Under the continuous heavy rain and flood erosion, the silt was washed away, and the water flow in the river suddenly became turbulent, and it rose higher and higher. Parked on the edge of the river The car on the bus was instantly washed away, and houses near rivers and low-lying areas were seriously flooded, with the water inside the house reaching a height of more than 1 meter.
With many years of rescue experience, Shen Zhiqiang realized the seriousness of the situation. He immediately called his parents and 16-year-old brother to go to the severely affected areas, evacuated the affected villagers one by one, and took them to his home. Because the rain was heavy and it was difficult to move, and most people in the village were not familiar with water, they carefully evacuated the trapped villagers to their homes on higher ground by supporting each other. By evening, Shen Zhiqiang's home had already received more than 10 elderly people and children. Seeing that everyone was hungry, Shen Zhiqiang went to the village canteen in the rain again and spent more than 200 yuan to buy instant noodles, steamed buns, bread, pickles, water and other food to distribute to the villagers.
The river bridge was broken. He and the village cadres climbed mountains and waded into the river to save people.
"Zhiqiang, what should I do? The bridge is broken. I wonder if those people on the other side are okay." Shen Zhiqiang heard that the only river in his village leading to the county seat The bridge was broken. This bridge connected more than 100 households in the south and north of the village. Shen Zhiqiang's family is located in the south of the village. Most of the north of the village is old houses, inhabited by some elderly people who do not want to go down the mountain to live with young people.
At nine o'clock in the evening, while the rain had subsided, Shen Zhiqiang handed over the evacuation and rescue work in the south of the village to his father and brother. Then he borrowed some nylon ropes and flashlights from the neighbors and walked along the north slope path with the village cadres. Going up the mountain, I wanted to bypass Beishan and go to the north of the village to check the damage and trapped people. But walking on the mountain road was far more difficult than they imagined. The original path was washed away by floods, landslides continued, and the road was muddy. They walked hard in the dark mountains, one foot deep and one foot shallow.
"How to get there? There is no way. The river is still a bit strong. Let's take a detour..." While walking, we met a river. Everyone was a little worried because none of them knew how to swim, so someone suggested taking a detour.
"No, if we take a detour, it will take more than an hour. The river is not very long, about 5 or 6 meters. I think we can walk. In this case, I will go there first." After saying that, Shen Zhiqiang took the nylon he brought One end of the rope was tied around his waist, and the other end was tied to a tree. Everyone helped pull the rope. In this way, he groped as he walked and brought everyone safely to the other side of the river.
"Is there anyone? Is anyone home? Is anyone okay?" It was almost 10 o'clock in the evening when they arrived in the north of the village. They started knocking on doors non-stop and moved the elderly people who were trapped in the disaster one by one.
After a busy day, all the villagers in Nanyao Village were rescued without any casualties.On this day, Shen Zhiqiang didn't rest for a moment, and it was almost dawn when he dragged his tired body home.
The river cave was blocked, and young men were organized to clear it with bare hands to eliminate the danger.
"Zhiqiang, the bridge cave in the south of the village is blocked. I am worried that if it rains heavily again, the bridge will be broken by floods." 8:00 a.m. on the 20th , the rain subsided, and the village chief Shen Haijun came to Shen Zhiqiang's house, hoping that he could help with some ideas. After listening, Shen Zhiqiang ate a few bites of steamed buns with pickles in a hurry, and then organized 4 or 5 strong men in the village to come to the river bridge in the south of the village.
The river bridge is about 13 or 4 meters long, with three bridge holes in total. The middle bridge hole is about 3 meters long, 7 meters wide and 5 meters high. The two small bridge holes next to it are about 1.5 meters, 7 meters wide and 5 meters high. , among which the big bridge hole in the middle and a small bridge hole next to it are blocked.
On one side is the rapid river, on the other side is the blocked bridge hole. If a flood suddenly strikes and the water flow increases, they may be washed away at any time. But most of the young people in the village went out to work, and Shen Zhiqiang did not care about his personal safety and organized a few young men to go to the river to escape danger.
Because they don’t have professional tools, they can only use agricultural hoes and shovels to dig bit by bit and dig out with their bare hands. To this day, Shen Zhiqiang’s hands can still see the scars from being stabbed by thorns.
The most difficult thing in the dredging process was that the large trees uprooted by the flood lay across the bridge hole and could not be removed with bare hands. They could only find a way to borrow a saw, cut off the branches one by one, and then tie one end of the wire rope to the middle of the trunk and fix the other end to the tractor body. Shen Zhiqiang's father was responsible for driving the tractor, and 5 or 6 people worked together to remove the big tree.
From 8 a.m. to 7 p.m., they started cleaning from the small bridge hole and soaked in the river for more than 11 hours before removing all the mud and debris.
"At that time, the bridge hole was tightly blocked by branches, debris, and mud. It would have been nice if there had been a chain saw at that time. At that time, I really wanted the plot in the movie to appear. My team members brought various rescue tools. Parachute into my hometown and fight with me." During the interview with the author, Shen Zhiqiang said this.
The rain stopped, and I trekked over three mountains to return to the team as scheduled.
html The 122nd was the day when Shen Zhiqiang returned to the team after his vacation. Due to lightning and floods, Nanyao Village was without electricity and Internet for several days. The flight ticket Shen Zhiqiang booked to return to Fujian on the 20th could not be refunded.
After returning to the army, Shen Zhiqiang immediately threw himself into the city's fire brigade competition training in August. He said nothing about the rescue in his hometown until August 3, when the Quanzhou Fire Detachment received a letter from Nanyao Village, Majiazhuang Township, Wu'an City. letter of commendation.
"On July 19, a flood that had never happened in a century occurred in Nanyao Village. When Comrade Shen Zhiqiang, a soldier of your army, went home to visit relatives, he actively fought against floods and rescued people, dug bridges and blockades, and evacuated the trapped people, regardless of personal safety. The glorious traditional spirit of not being afraid of hardship and not being afraid of death." The letter introduced the importance of Comrade Shen Zhiqiang in the flood rescue, and expressed gratitude and praise to the fire brigade and Comrade Shen Zhiqiang.
Shen Zhiqiang, born in March 1996, is from Nanyao Village, Majiazhuang Township, Wu'an City, Handan City, Hebei Province. He joined the army in September 2013. He is currently the driver of the Dongyuan Squadron of the Taiwanese Investment Zone Brigade of the Quanzhou City Public Security Fire Detachment in Fujian Province, and holds the rank of Corporal of the Armed Police. . Since joining the army, he has participated in more than 600 fire-fighting and rescue operations, evacuating and rescuing more than 200 trapped people. Not long ago, on June 4, the roof of a stone house collapsed in Houhai Village, Baiqi Township, Quanzhou Taiwanese Investment Zone, trapping three children. Shen Zhiqiang and his comrades rushed to the scene, used a cutting machine to break the windows, got into the house, and successfully rescued the three trapped children. Their rescue deeds have also been reported by People's Daily Online, Fujian TV Station, Strait Metropolis Daily, Quanzhou Evening News and other media.
"I went home to visit relatives for the first time in more than three years after joining the army. Unexpectedly, I encountered a flood in my hometown. This time the whole village was fine. It also benefited from the many years of training given to me by the army, which allowed me to master some emergency rescue skills, so that I played a role in this flood and had the opportunity to contribute to my hometown and serve the villagers." On August 4, when Shen Zhiqiang introduced the rescue process to the author and expressed his gratitude to the fire brigade, he received a call from his mother. Telephone.
"There is a fire, the water is rising again, and the bridge is blocked again." When hearing the news of the flood from home, Shen Zhiqiang seemed a little anxious, but because of the army's duty and combat preparation needs and the upcoming competition, he could not go home. To help, I can only repeatedly remind my family members on the phone to pay attention to safety and assist in self-rescue.
Put down the phone, he and his comrades braved the scorching sun and devoted themselves to training for the martial arts competition.
