However, in the early morning of July 28, a catastrophe is about to happen, making many families like Wang Shubin in Tangshan City, become shattered.
Late at night, busy people all day long, have been lying in a comfortable bed into dreamland, the streets and roads also returned to the calm, no daytime hustle and bustle, before the hospital bed, Wang Shubin's wife, but also lying on her husband's side asleep.
"Earthquake, run ah", sleeping people were shouting to wake up, at this moment, Wang Shubin, only feel the whole hospital in the violent shaking, the whole person and the bed as if to be arched up, the fear of the psychological emergence of the; a moment, the ward into a piece of rubble, before the eyes of all the darkness is shrouded in the darkness, and can not see the fingers.
Shouts and cries for help filled the entire dark space, "Shubin, save me!" A faint cry for help came into Wang Shubin's ears, very close but blocked by the collapsed concrete slab; his wife's voice made Wang Shubin become anxious, and he tried to get up to look for it, but his body could not move.
It turned out that the collapsed beams did not hurt him, but was blocked by the bed planks of the hospital bed, bed planks and the ground in a narrow area, surrounded by cement and bricks, like a closed "coffin", very depressing.
Wang Shubin grasping the stones, while following his wife's voice creeping forward, slowly his wife is only a stone's throw away, but Wang Shubin's palms are digging through the bleeding, or can not go further, the darkness Wang Shubin stretched out his arm from the gap in the groping, and can only touch his wife's one finger tip.
This distance has turned into a heavenly separation, his wife's fingers slowly become cold, and his voice is weak; it turned out that his wife's lower body was smashed by the cement board, and she has long lost her intuition, and with the loss of blood, her life is also gradually fading away.
After his wife finished her speech, there was no more sound,
Wang Shubin couldn't believe what happened in front of him, and kept asking himself: "What's going on here? Yesterday, they were all fine.
At this moment, Wang Shubin how to hope that all this quickly end, how to hope that the darkness in front of the emergence of a ray of light, how to hope to be able to live to see their lovely daughter.
The Tangshan earthquake's impact on the region's large, wide range of rare; north of Heilongjiang's Manchuria, south of Henan's Drift River, east of Bohai Bay, west of Ningxia's Mingzui Mountain, 14 provinces, municipalities, autonomous regions, more than 2 million square kilometers of land inhabited by hundreds of millions of people are subject to fluctuations!
The earthquake occurred at the same time, the earth in Zhongnanhai, Beijing, was also affected by the waves, at this time Mao Zedong has long been seriously ill, just take sleeping pills to sleep, when the earthquake came, the security guards with the body of the Chairman of the head, the other people to bring quilts to grab the corners, respectively, to prevent the roof from falling down on the things hit the Chairman.
Soon, the report on the earthquake in Tangshan, was sent to Mao Zedong's bedside, in the difficult to read the report, the original sick Mao Zedong a long time, staff from the side of the sneak peek at the Chairman, saw the tears from his cheeks fell.
At this time, Mao Zedong's condition deteriorated, and his speech became very difficult, the secretary asked to read the report to Mao Zedong, was refused, after insisting on reading the report, the Chairman of the side of Hua Guofeng instructed: "As soon as possible to go to Tangshan, on behalf of me to sympathize with the people in the disaster area, and resettlement of the victims of the life." This report also became Mao Zedong's life, signed the last document of the Central Committee of China ****.
A huge disaster, attacked the sleeping Tangshan, a city with a population of one million people, instantly razed to the ground, nine out of ten houses in the city collapsed, power lines, communication equipment, all interrupted, Tangshan completely lost contact with the outside world, turned into a lonely city!
After the earthquake, the people who survived, one after another, climbed out of the rubble, not caring about the body's injuries, with tears in their eyes to rescue their families and neighbors; troops stationed in Tangshan, but also in the case of their own suffering from severe trauma, quickly organized the surviving warriors, to carry out self-help rescue each other, in the rescue forces came before the first put into the rescue and relief, treatment of the injured and guarding the important targets of the The first thing you need to do is to get a good deal of money to pay for it.
The earthquake occurred at the same time, is located in Tangshan City, 15 kilometers northeast of the Steep River Reservoir, by the earthquake and the waves, the main dam longitudinal fracture of 1,700 meters, horizontal fracture of more than 50, although not dike, but also precarious, the Steep River Reservoir, the bottom of the reservoir is nearly ten meters above the city, the storage capacity of up to 36 million cubic meters of water, once the aftershock came to the collapse of the dam in a few moments, the city of Tangshan will become a piece of the ocean!
The Steep River Reservoir has always been used for irrigation, water supply, power generation, and benefit to the people, at this time like a sword hanging over the heads of millions of people in the city of Tangshan, at any time, may bring about a catastrophe to Tangshan.
At the moment of crisis, a company of artillery regiment in Tang received an order to quickly form a rescue squad, rushed to more than ten kilometers away from the Steep River Reservoir, their task is: "to rush in the aftershock before the arrival of the open gate to release the water".
When the soldiers arrived, the reservoir dam suffered serious damage, the fishery and the family dormitory house collapsed, the reservoir management office courtyard house was also cracked, 16 employees and their families were all killed.
Due to the impact of the earthquake, the power facilities were destroyed, the generator in the plant was also smashed, more than 40 tons of gates can only rely on manpower to open, a flesh and blood and the steel beast of life and death struggle to open the curtain.
In front of the huge machine, human power seems so small, due to the large lifting equipment was smashed deformation, the winch shaking becomes very difficult, four fighters a breath of up to shake forty laps, and the gate lift a centimeter needs 60 laps.
Aftershocks continue to occur, busy disaster relief warriors and grain of rice not into the winch shaking exceptionally difficult, at this moment the rescue officers and soldiers of the heart have no other idea, they only know that the reservoir below, is thousands of lives, including their own families, comrades and friends, they only have a belief, that is, open the gate to release the water, the defense of Tangshan!
After a full eight hours of hard work, the two heavy gates were finally lifted to the standard position, the flood water from the discharge channel safely discharged, after the rescue of Tangshan, finally avoided a catastrophe.
The strong Tangshan people, through self-help mutual rescue, many people are out of danger, but the homes were destroyed, hundreds of thousands of people lack of food and water, medical supplies are extremely scarce, a large number of injured waiting for medical treatment, the people are sleeping on the streets, the people trapped under the rubble of the pain of the moaning, every minute someone was pushed into the door of death.
All the people who survived the earthquake hope that the state can understand the tragic situation in Tangshan earlier, and quickly send the People's Liberation Army rescue team to save their loved ones and friends buried under the rubble!
July 28, 1976, 10:00: Beijing Military Region, the front of the leading personnel to arrive; 11:30: Beijing Military Region, a tank division of the leading troops to arrive; 12:00; Beijing Military Region, an artillery division of the leading troops to arrive; 14:30; Beijing Military Region, an anti-aircraft artillery division of the leading troops to arrive.
At this time, the people of Tangshan have been looking forward to the People's Liberation Army for a long time, the mood is complex, it is an indescribable emotion "crying with a smile, laughing with crying", the people of Tangshan always believe that the People's Liberation Army will definitely come to their aid, which is the people's trust in the government!
After arriving at the disaster area, anxious young officers and soldiers, immediately put into the battle, with the God of death to snatch life, their only rescue tool is a pair of hands, picking stones, lifting the floorboards, pulling the steel bars, and soon warriors' hands became bloody.
Because Tangshan is a heavy industrial city, the building is mostly composed of concrete and steel structure, it is difficult to lift with just one hand, and the rescuers lack of lifting equipment, the rescue work is difficult to carry out.
In order not to make the rubble under the injured by the second injury, the soldiers can only use the most primitive way of rescue, selected more thin warriors, from the gap to open a life channel, aftershocks constantly, overhead brick cement kept falling, it is difficult to dig through the channel many times to be covered, which is the pain of hardship only the pro can feel.
At this moment, buried under the rubble of the coal miner Wang Shubin, after eight days and seven nights of digging, opened up a 250-meter-long channel, this dark eight days, Wang Shubin has been carrying the promise of his wife, he must live out, to find his daughter, to fulfill the promise of his wife, to the vivacious daughter to raise an adult; when a hoarse inquiry into the ears of the Wang Shubin When a hoarse voice of inquiry came into Wang Shubin's ears, Wang Shubin's mood was thrilled, this sentence of inquiry is like the sound of heavenly laziness, opened the door to another world, the darkness of a faint illumination, gave life once rekindled hope!
Disaster relief work carried out nearly eight days of time, to be able to survive under the rubble of the possibility of getting lower and lower, one after another cold remains were carried out, the mood of the PLA fighters became heavier and heavier, in the tentative questioning, Wang Shubin's response to the presence of all the people are thrilled to have to say that Wang Shubin can survive is really a miracle, but also to the search and rescue personnel, and to add a lot of confidence.
A large number of injured people were rescued, the hospital in Tangshan City has long been overwhelmed, drugs, gauze used up, can only pull down the curtains, table simply stop bleeding. Many medical personnel with injuries to treat the wounded, often in the operating table to fight dozens of hours.
Nurse Li Ailing head injury blood, in the injured old man injection, the old man intolerant said: " girl you are injured, but also for me to play the needle, this needle you give yourself to play on the bar, I'm old, early and late death can be, don't give my old man to play
The nurse said, "I'm not sure if you are a good person. "The words just fell, tears can not stop flowing down.
The troops and local medical teams across the country are urgently driving into the disaster area at the same time, the rescue operation is facing a huge difficulty, that is, the need to save the people about more than seven hundred thousand, greatly exceeding the Tangshan and the surrounding counties to bear the scope of a lot of hospitals appeared to be a doctor to take care of dozens or even hundreds of cases.
In response to this grim situation, the Party Central Committee made a decision on the 30th, the country urgently mobilized a large number of planes and trains, the Tangshan casualties to the national transfer, the history of a rare, nationwide transfer of casualties.
This fully reflects the determination and cohesion of the Chinese government in the face of a major disaster, and the Chinese people will not be crushed by any disaster!
