    It is large, wide in area and lasts for a long time, forming a see-saw situation on the north and south banks of the middle and lower reaches of the Yangtze River. In the first half of August, heavy rains moved to the upper reaches of the Yangtze River and the Han River.

    Upper midstream. Because the middle and lower reaches of the lake depression were full before the upstream flood arrived, the catharsis was blocked when the upstream flood went eastward, thus forming a catastrophic flood that has not been encountered in a century.

    Hubei province was particularly badly affected. Hubei "has seven departments and a Jianghan belt."

    See Qing Dynasty historian Zhang Xuecheng "Hubei Tongzhi Inspection and Preservation Manuscript"), known as "Zeguo" in history, the territory of the rivers are crisscrossed, the lakes are dotted, and the area along the river and lake is low-lying, therefore, in the 1954 flood, Hubei Province was particularly seriously affected by the flood.

    On August 5 7, 1975, a historically rare heavy rainstorm occurred in the Zhumadian area of central and southern Henan Province. The total precipitation in 3 days at the center of the storm was 1605 mm, with the maximum precipitation in 24 hours and the maximum precipitation in 1 hour.

    Among them, the 1-6 hour heavy rain set a record in the history of our country. The "8 July" rainstorm caused the dams of two large reservoirs and many small and medium-sized reservoirs to collapse almost simultaneously, and the flood flooded rapidly, which may have caused the greatest loss of life and property to the Chinese people after liberation.

    The torrential rain continued overnight, causing the reservoir to swell so much that the dam was eventually washed away by the river. Pouring down.

    It is recorded that the maximum instantaneous flow of the reservoir at the time of the rupture was 10,000 cubic meters per second, and 100 million cubic meters of flood water poured downstream within 6 hours. After the dam burst water enters the river, it rushes downstream at an average speed of 6 meters per second, forming a water flow with a head of 5-9 meters and a width of 12-15 kilometers between the dam and the Beijing-Guangzhou Railway in a straight line of 45 kilometers.

    More than 10 million people were affected and more than 20,000 people were killed. Zhumadian has become a vast ocean, and the economic loss is as high as nearly 10 billion yuan. More than 60 reservoirs have collapsed, making it the worst and most serious tragedy in the world.

    In 1998, China suffered the largest floods in its history. At that time, China had to divert floodwater to the Yangtze River basin and central regions to protect the city and the industrial towns along the Yangtze River. The situation is particularly critical in Wuhan, the capital city of eastern Hubei province, which is bisected by the Yangtze River and vulnerable to flooding.

    One of the reasons for the more severe floods in 1998 was the timing and distribution of rainfall. In 1998, rainfall was concentrated in July and August, covering much of eastern China, with most cities receiving as much as 400 mm of rain in a week.

    Personally, I think it was during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression - in 1938, the Yellow River was diverted, in order to prevent the Japanese army from invading Zhengzhou westward, Chiang Kai-shek ordered to open the Yellow River embankment at the mouth of the garden in Zhengzhou, causing floods to block the Japanese army. The whole river flows southward again, along the Jialu River, the Yinghe River, and the Whirlpool River into the Huai River. The flood was overflowing, and the victims were everywhere.

    It was not until 1947 that the Yellow River returned to the north and entered the sea from Kenli County, Shandong.
