Summary

In 1913, relentless rains caused the Yangtze River to overflow, flooding entire villages and leaving families stranded for weeks. With no warning systems and limited resources, people relied on courage, quick thinking, and each other to survive. This episode shares real moments from one of history’s lesser-known floods—and the strength it took to rebuild afterward.
