XCMG Emergency Rescue Team Completes Mission with Honors
On September 5, the Flood Control and Drought Relief Headquarters of Inner Mongolia Autonomous Region held a farewell ceremony for flood rescue teams at the People’s Government of Tokto County, Hohhot. XCMG Emergency Rescue Team and other teams that provided support to Inner Mongolia were presented with honorary banners and certificates.
Since August, persistent heavy rainfall caused water levels in the Dahei River system, a tributary of the Yellow River, to rise rapidly, leading to a critical flood control situation. The disaster drew nationwide concern, and XCMG immediately answered the call, swiftly deploying its professional resources to protect public safety.
In accordance with the unified deployment of the Ministry of Emergency Management, XCMG Emergency Rescue Team promptly activated its emergency response plan. A skilled team and advanced equipment were assembled, and they raced day and night to the front lines of the rescue operation.
On August 12, the first group of four rescue team members arrived in the disaster area with two vertical drainage and water supply emergency vehicles. They worked alongside rescue forces including China Anneng to carry out full-scale drainage operations. According to incomplete statistics, they drained a cumulative total of 1.74 million cubic meters of water, effectively reducing the threat posed by upstream flood discharge to farmland.
From August 12 to August 31, after operating continuously for 220 hours, the team was urgently redeployed.Time was life as torrential rain continued to fall. A second group of six XCMG members rushed north on August 21 with three additional pieces of equipment to provide reinforcement.
The ten team members worked in shifts, quickly entering a round-the-clock operation mode. Without hesitation, they trudged through mud and deep water, rolling up their pants to lay hoses and adjusting their operational plans based on real-time conditions. To prevent pumping operations from eroding the embankments, they used rubber boats to navigate into the center of the flooded farmland, securing hoses with professional precision to minimize potential risks—showcasing the strength of technical rescue capabilities.
Late at night, the pumps ran at high speed while the rescue team persisted in their efforts amid challenging conditions. Working in two shifts, they braved wind and rain to regularly clear filters, check vehicle status, and maintain efficient drainage. After more than 460 consecutive hours of operation and a cumulative drainage volume of 3.4196 million cubic meters, XCMG fulfilled its solemn commitment to "safeguarding lives through innovative solutions" with reliable equipment and dedicated perseverance.
When disaster strikes, help comes from all directions.We pay tribute to every individual who marches forward amid the storm.
We honor every act of courage and sincerity in times of peril.
