Immediately after that, Division 315 (Military Region 5) mobilized dozens of officers, soldiers and specialized vehicles to the scene to coordinate with local forces and people to organize reinforcement. Soldiers urgently patched the broken positions, used hundreds of sandbags and rocks to block water, and reinforced the embankment in heavy rain and strong winds.
