1. The upper reaches of the Jialing River in Nanchong starts from Daiwang Mountain in Feng County, Shaanxi Province, at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains.

The main stream flows through Shaanxi Province, Gansu Province, Sichuan Province and Chongqing City, and ends at Chaotianmen, Chongqing, where it joins the Yangtze River.

The Jialing River, the main tributary of the Yangtze River, is a tributary of the upper reaches of the Yangtze River. It is named after it flows through the Jialing River Valley in the northeast of Feng County, Shaanxi Province.

(1. Source "Shui Jing Zhu". In the 20th (Shuiyang) year: the Han River flows into Jialing Road in the south and becomes the Jialing River) originating from Daiwang Mountain in Feng County, Shaanxi Province, at the northern foot of the Qinling Mountains.

The main stream flows through Shaanxi Province, Gansu Province, Sichuan Province, and Chongqing City, and joins the Yangtze River at Chaotianmen in Chongqing City.

[1] The main tributaries are: Badu, Xihanshui, Bailongjiang, Qujiang, Fujiang, etc.

The main river basin has a total length of 1,345 kilometers, an area of ??39,200 square kilometers, a drainage area of ??160,000 square kilometers, and an altitude of 4,070 meters.

The source of the Jialing River is located at 103 degrees 26 minutes 59 seconds east longitude and 33 degrees 05 minutes 38 seconds north latitude.

It is the largest basin among the tributaries of the Yangtze River, second only to the Yalong River in length and second in flow to the Min River.

Font That was the 1981 flood.

From July 13 to July 17, 1981, Chongqing suffered the largest flood since the founding of the Republic of China.

Until now, the hydrological department has been accustomed to using the largest flood peak since 1981 when releasing public information.

That was a special memory for Chongqing people 35 years ago.

Notify the whole city at two o'clock in the morning.

The staff answered the phone for 4 days and 4 nights.

In the Municipal Archives, the Chongqing Municipal Government’s official records on Chongqing’s flood prevention and relief in 1981 are as follows: Major flooding began in our Yangtze River and Jialing River on July 13. On July 16, the peak water level of the Yangtze River reached 193.38m, and the peak water level of the Jialing River reached 208.17m.

In Chongqing's history, the peak heights of the Yangtze River and Jialing River both exceeded this, and only in 1870 they were 198 meters and 214 meters respectively.

The cause of the flood 35 years ago was a rare six-day continuous heavy rain in the Sichuan Basin on the upper reaches of the Yangtze River from July 9 to 14, 1981.

Official data shows that at 23:00 on July 13, the Chongqing Flood Control Headquarters received the first news of the devastating flood 35 years ago.

From 2 a.m. to 3 a.m., the city began making emergency calls to all districts and counties.

Lin Zhenqiang, then a staff member of the Flood Control Headquarters, answered calls in his office for four days and nights, all from counties, factories, mines, streets, communes, and troops along the river.

According to the records of each street, most streets in Chongqing and government agencies in major American cities made emergency flood control arrangements on the 14th.

Also on the morning of the 14th, Chongqing American Radio issued a flood warning to the entire city.

Take the plank and jump from the second floor.

Among the more than 10 people interviewed by the Chongqing Times reporter, the most intuitive memory of the flood was on July 15, a Wednesday, when there was heavy rain in some areas of Chongqing.

Chen Daoyou, the former chairman of the Second Construction Company of Chongqing Construction Engineering Group, used a wooden board to jump out of the second-floor window of the office at No. 203 Renmin Road, Beibei that afternoon because the raging Jialing River directly flooded the first-floor door of the office.

Daoyou Chen didn’t know at that time that two-thirds of Beibei’s main streets were flooded that day.

In August, Beibei District ranked first in the Chongqing Municipal Government’s disaster report.

Su Qichang, a worker at the Chongqing Micromotor Factory in Hualongqiao, saw the ancient bridge on Hualongqiao Street being flooded on his way home.

But he didn't stop to look, because his home was flooded and his bed was floating.

He had to go back and move quickly.

Although news of the flood had spread on the afternoon of the 14th, most people in Chongqing were still working on the 15th, so that the floods began to hit both sides of the river, and many people ran home to move their things.

He Zejun, the female yellow file records the situation 35 years ago when many place names that are now familiar to Chongqing people were submerged.

For example, Ciqikou, Marble Pier, Hualong Bridge, Caiyuanba, and the Third Heavy Steel Plant. These places have now become famous scenic spots or high-end residential and commercial areas.

But at this time, everything was as expected by Wang Yang.

Ciqikou Ancient Town was also flooded 2/3.

On the current main street of the ancient town, a mark of the highest water level in Ciqikou at that time was left, almost flush with the existing shop doors.

Yang Yaochuan, former director of the Internal Medicine Department of the First People's Hospital, Nanjing People's Hospital, remembers that Marble Pier was the hardest hit area and was almost completely submerged by the Yangtze River.

In the Hualongqiao Street Archives of the Shapingba Archives, there is the following record: 1,573 households in the entire street were affected by the disaster, accounting for 15.2% of the affected population, and the street offices were flooded to the knees.

In the archives of Chongqing Iron & Steel Co., Ltd., the only photo recording the influx of Yangtze River floods into the factory was Li Zilin's depiction of blast furnaces No. 3 and No. 4, both of which were extinguished by the floods.

Only when the ship is in danger.

Looking for memories of the flood 35 years ago, a Chongqing Times reporter was surprised to find that almost no one was afraid.

Chen Daoyou understands it this way: At the beginning of reform and opening up, most citizens did not have a lot of money without me.
