"Water, electricity, roads, etc. have been connected, and post-disaster reconstruction is being carried out in an orderly manner." On August 4, the author contacted Zeng Yao, the leader of the rural revitalization team of Caidong Village, Qingshan Township, and the Guidong County Animal Husbandry and Fisheries Affairs Center and Songping Forest Farm. Affected by Typhoon No. 3 "Gemei", from July 26 to 29, there was a flood situation in Qingshan Township, Guidong County, and the flood situation in Caidong Village was particularly serious, with road collapses, landslides, serious damage to infrastructure, water, electricity, roads, telecommunications, and networks were all interrupted, and contact with the outside world was lost for a time. At 2 o'clock in the morning of the 27th, Zeng Yao, who was doing business in the county seat, and Chen Zhigang, the party secretary of Caidong Village, marched to Caidong Village in the rain overnight.
Advance to the color hole. (Photo by Chen Zhigang) due to the heavy rain, X005 County Road Shatin to Qingshan Road 35 kilometers, landslides continued, many roadbeds were hollowed out, the road was full of stones and branches washed down from the mountain, the road became a river, and the asphalt on the road was washed away. Zeng Yao and Chen Zhigang were cautious all the way, and one of them always paid attention to the slope situation and the falling trees on both sides of the road; One person drives cautiously. Zeng Yao and his entourage, with the assistance of the danger elimination teams of Shatin Town and Songping Forest Farm, cleared the trees and bamboos that fell in the middle of the road, and opened a passage in the collapse with great difficulty to pass. It took 8 o'clock in the morning to arrive at Songjia Village, which was a one-and-a-half-hour drive, but took 6 hours. At the house of Guo Niansheng, the party secretary of Songjia Village, Zeng Yao and Chen Zhigang hurriedly drank some porridge, made a brief report to the township government, and then packed their bags and ran to Caidong. On the more than 20 kilometers of road from Songjia Village to Caidong Village, there are more than 30 landslides, landslides, and roadbed hollowed out, and cars cannot get in, and it is difficult for people to pass. The two of them risked landslides at any time, separated by more than 10 meters, one in front to explore the road, one to observe in the rear, or to climb over with both hands and feet, or to step on quicksand and wade past, or to drill or climb over the trees that block the middle of the road, and where they really can't pass, they climb the mountain to open up the road and make a detour. After nearly seven hours, Zeng Yao and Chen Zhigang arrived at the home of Zhong Linsheng, a villager of the Duliao Group at the entrance of Caidong Village, at 3 p.m. on the same day. "Chen Xiaowen and I will go to the Hankeng group, you and Zhong Jigeng will go to Caidong, and Zhao Chuansong will go to the Qiuping group, find out the disaster situation first, and then meet and summarize it at night." Zeng Yao and Chen Zhigang changed into Zhong Linsheng's dry clothes, picked up two mouthfuls of food, and went their separate ways to work. The Hankeng Formation is the most remote group in Caidong Village, about 10 kilometers away from Zhonglin Shengjia. Due to the blockage of the landslide, Zeng Yao and Chen Xiaowen could only go on foot, climbed the landslide and waded through muddy water, and finally came to the Hankeng group. They inspected the disaster situation one by one, comforted the affected people, reminded them to pay attention to safety, and inquired about the situation of material reserves.
Zeng Yao calmed the crowd and learned about the situation at the temporary resettlement site. (Photo by Chen Xiaowen) "The two of you will move to Chen Jiaquan's house first. "When I came to Zhong Guilin and Zhong Shengming's house, I found that there was a collapse behind the two houses, which was very dangerous, Zeng Yao said firmly." The houses of the two brothers, Chen Xiangbo and Chen Xiangting, completely collapsed. "The small square in the village is flooded!" "The base of Chinese medicinal materials - the peony medicine garden was washed." …… Seeing the "devastation" left behind by the flash flood in Caidong Village, Zeng Yao and the villagers of Caidong could not hide their sadness and shed tears. At 12 o'clock in the evening, Zeng Yao and Chen Xiaowen returned to Zhong Linsheng's house covered in mud after checking the damage to the Hankeng Group, and summarized the damage situation in Caidong Village with other groups.

"Fortunately, there were no casualties!" But when I think of the people of Caidong who were affected by the disaster, I think of how to feedback the disaster situation of Caidong to the township? What should we do next? He pondered it over and over again, and couldn't sleep all night. At 6 o'clock in the morning of the 28th, Zeng Yao learned that Zhou Linfeng, a cadre from Zhixiang Township, rushed to Caidong Village at 4 o'clock in the morning and brought a satellite phone. So, Zeng Yao immediately used a satellite phone to report the situation in Caidong to the township.
