Opening up the "Songliao Canal" can "revitalize" the Liaohe RiverThe Xiliao River, which has been cut off for 25 years, is "about to dry up", when will the country come to the rescue?
The three northeastern provinces are also quite rich in water resourcesBut the biggest problem is the uneven distribution. The Heilongjiang River and the Songhua River are the largest landmarks in Northeast China, and their basins are also quite extensive.
However, the Liaohe River has become the most "water-scarce" place in the country.
The West Liao River is the largest tributary of the Liao River, and it was once called the "Great Liao River" together with the Xilamulun River, which spanned the three major provinces of Inner Mongolia, Jilin and Liaoning, and finally flowed into the East Liao River.
It was also one of the mother rivers in the Tohoku region.
But now is not what it used to be, time flies,Once its basin was as high as 1360,000 square kilometersHowever, as the years passed, the riverbed continued to shrinkIn the past, the river was reduced to a "10,000-acre desert".
For more than 20 years, not a drop of water has flowed into this place, what has it experienced?
So much so that now it has fallen into a broken situation. Could it be that you really have to rely on Songjiang to help Liao?
The plan of "leading Songliao to Liao" has to start with the famous "Songliao Canal" in those years......
As early as the Kangxi era, the Liaohe River basin was developed early, and its population was particularly large, and it was a key area in the northeast to defend against foreign enemies. On the contrary, the Heilongjiang River basin is not so prosperous.
In order to solve the problem of the northeast territory and prepare for the "Battle of Yaxa" in advance, Emperor Kangxi set out to the northeast, and this problem of water transportation is an important obstacle to the first material.
In 1683, after Kangxi returned from inspection, he immediately implemented the program of "Songliao Combined Transport". Since then, the defense strength of the Northeast has been greatly enhanced, which has also made a great contribution to the development of the Northeast region.
Since the Opium War, the Qing Dynasty has transferred a large number of troops to Guannai to support, resulting in a tragic invasion of the northeast region. At the end of the Qing Dynasty, the Japanese army and Tsarist Russia divided their territories with Changchun as the boundary, and the northeast of China fell into a critical situation.
It was not until 1906 that Xiong Xiling proposed that "the revitalization of agriculture and industry in the country really depends on the function of water conservancy." ”
Since then, the "Songliao Canal" has become a long-awaited project for the people!Xiong Xiling's plan was to dig a canal between the Yitong River and the Dongliao River to run through the two main rivers, the Heilongjiang River and the Liao River. It makes the Northeast region "connected by blood and convenient for transportation".
It is a pity that the Qing Dynasty was already unable to protect itself at this time, and had no time to take care of the great cause of benefiting the people.
In 1912, the Qing Dynasty was peerless!The plan for the canal fell into the hands of Yuan Shikai, who was subsequently appointedZhang Taiyan prepared border envoys for the three eastern provinces and took over the plan of the "Songliao Canal".
But for various reasons, the plan was put on hold. Later, it was transferred to the hands of several people again, but it was not implemented.
Yuan Shikai passed away, and Sun Yat-sen took over, in what he wrote"The Founding Strategy".The "Songliao Canal" was mentioned, but ten years later the plan was also followed by his deathIt has become a map with "no field".
After tossing and turning, the plan fell into the hands of the Japanese army after the "918" incidentThe Japanese immediately planned to carry out this great causeBut the purpose of digging the canal was to "seize resources".
At the same time, patriots also portrayed this plan in detailHowever, in the end, the construction was not started.
Later, after the founding of the People's Republic of China, the Songliao Canal plan is still a major goal in China's development process.
In 1949, the Ministry of Water Resources and the Chinese Academy of Sciences sent people to conduct field surveysIn 1959, a special meeting was held to discuss how to implement the canal plan.
But who would have thought,The Liaohe River basin has been severely ecologically damaged, the plan to build the Songliao Canal came to naught.
Seeing that the former "Mother River of the Northeast" is about to dry upThe original plan of the Songliao Canal could not be realized, and the canal could only be turned into a "life-saving river".
The reason why the West Liao River will stop flowing starts from its source......
The Xilamulun River, the Laoha River, the Wulijimuren River and the Jiaolai River are all the "ration pillars" of the Xiliao River.
But since 20 years ago, the flow of these rivers has decreased dramatically, coupled with a decrease in precipitationThe flow to the Xiliao River is less than half of the original flow.
The upper stream is not powerful, the lower stream is ruthless, who will die if the West Liao River does not die?In the eyes of most people, the interruption of the Xiliao River is".The northerners did not protect well
Although this sentence is aggressive, it is always "rough and unreasonable". In recent years,Frequent human intervention in the river is also the most important reason.
Mankind will one day learn a lesson from what it takes from the natural environment. "Xiliao River" is the best example of this sentence.
For many years, humanity has been trying to surviveLarge-scale "interception and water intake" in the upper reaches of the river to build various projectsDue to the excessive water consumption of "barrage" and "drinking water", there is no excess water flowing downstream.
PlusIn order to "protect water resources", Chifeng City has continuously increased fish scale pitsAll natural precipitation is trapped in the mountains to irrigate vegetation.
Due to the development of many "high-water-consumption" projects in the upstream area, the already insufficient water resources of the Liaohe River have been damagedRegions located downstream are also facing water shortages.
It is no exaggeration to say that the "tragic state" of the Xiliao River today is inseparable from the over-construction of industry and agriculture by people in the upper reaches.
Well, in order to save the nasty areas,How likely is it to introduce "Songshui into the Liao River"?If this plan is realized, what will be the impact on both places?
The annual runoff of the Liao River is 12.6 billion cubic meters, but the flow of the Songhua River is as high as 76.2 billion cubic meters. Judging from the data, it is indeed a feasible way to transfer water from the Songhua River to the Liao River!
The people also often call for opening the "Songliao Canal" as soon as possible, so that the people in the downstream areas can use the Songjiang water, and at the same time, the voice of "opposition" is also particularly loud.
What is the reason behind this "life-saving project" that has not been realized?
The Songhua River is the largest tributary of the Heilongjiang RiverAs we all know, Heilongjiang not only flows into China, but also an international river.
If the Liao River is intercepted and rescued in China, it will lead to a decline in the water volume of the lower reaches of the Heilongjiang River. So once the water of the Songhua River is mobilized,It is bound to cause some troublesome international disputes!
It is precisely because of various reasons that the "Songliao Canal", which has been conceived countless times before, is still only at the point of "talking on paper". Although it can't be realized, people yearn for it.
But my country is not going to sit idly byThe West Liao River was cut off and the downstream areas were short of waterSit back and watch.
Since the Songhua River can't be moved, then we will divert water from other rivers soon!At this time, the Qiuer River in Inner Mongolia became the most suitable "candidate".
Since this river is feasible, then our craftsmen will do what they sayA project called "Attracting Talents to Liao" is located in the blueprint of the northern part of our country.
Construction began on this project back in 2019, and it has becomeOne of the largest water conservancy projects in Inner Mongolia so far.
Now it has been 4 years since the start of construction, and China's "infrastructure madness" has opened up all the river tunnels in this project. It can be said that it has now arrived".Everything is ready, just wait for the water to be released"That's it.
After 56 months, the completion date is numbered. According to the speed of the craftsmen**, it willIn mid-December this year, the entire line was completed.
When the project is completed,The water will divert an average of 4 water per year for the Liao River5.4 billion cubic meters.
Perhaps in the eyes of most people4.The 5.4 billion cubic meters of water diversion is simply a "small thing" for the Liaohe River.
However, China's construction has always pursued the policy of "doing what we can", that is, after meeting the water consumption of the local river basin, the excess water resources will be transferred to other areas. In short, we cannot "tear down the east wall and make up the west wall".
The water resources of rivers in various parts of China shoulder the important responsibility of the ecological environment of their basins, and it does not mean that any river with sufficient water flow can be used to build "water conservancy projects".
Doing so willfully will not only damage the local ecological environment, but also may produce more cascading reactions.
Therefore, do not arbitrarily hope that the state will build all kinds of water conservancy projects, because the projects built in our country are all orders issued after long-term planning and repeated investigations.
However, with the support of "Suishui", the Liaohe River will definitely be able to improve the situation of broken flow to a great extent. It is believed that in the near future, the Xiliao River, which has been silent for 20 years, will be able to regain its vitality.
