Chapter 90: Wildfires
On the main road in the village, people come and go.
Under the scorching sun, a group of bear children armed with plastic swords, toy guns, and Balala's little wands are standing in a military posture.
Ye Rong turned into a militia instructor and walked around in front of the queue, scolding twice from time to time, "Stand up for me!" β
"Stand upright!"
"Take a break!"
"Let's go!"
"Cheer me up! The future of the Motherland is yours! This country needs you to protect it! You must love the country, love the people, do your best and die to fight for the Chinese nation...... We are Chinese, we are proud! We must learn from the revolutionary martyrs, not afraid of hardship, not afraid of tiredness, not afraid of sacrifice......"
"Pay attention, when you walk the right step, swing your arms like lightning and kick your legs like cannonballs!"
ββ¦β¦β
Seeing this scene, the villagers passing by almost couldn't help but shake their heads, "This Ye Rong is crazy again......"
Hearing such a voice, Ye Rong began to practice in actual combat.
Suddenly, the villagers pointed their fingers taunting and yelled at the bear children: "If he is the enemy, what should we do?" β
"Kill!"
"Put him in prison!"
"Wow ha, I've been a man who aspires to be the King of the Pirates since I was a child! Killβ"
A group of bear children rushed to taunt the villagers, used toy knives and guns, captured the enemy, and then escorted them to Ye Rong's side, scolding him to kneel......
If you meet a female villager, there will be some different plots.
"Instructor! We've got a female spy! Enjoy! β
"Female spy, you have to serve our instructor well! Or we'll beat you! β
ββ¦β¦β
Over time, no one in the villagers passing by dared to laugh at Ye Rong for going crazy!
β¦β¦
It has been five days since Ye Rong led a group of bear child militiamen to dance with guns and sticks.
Ye Rong was very pleased......
Because this group of bear children is already like a division of tigers and wolves!
Dare to touch the verbal provocateur, and the army of tigers and wolves will instantly turn into a furious army!
It's been five days.
The Mid-Autumn Festival and National Day holiday is coming to an end today, and Ye Rong's small militia regiment will basically start school tomorrow.
Today, it's the final training.
It's also time to test the results......
"Little comrades!"
"Today is the last day, so I'm not going to train! We want to show the villagers the results of our training! β
"Stand in array! Look to the rightβ"
"Stand upright!"
"Countβ"
"Today will be our military parade. Walk along the main road of Sangzhuang, walk together! β
"One-two-one, one-two-one......"
Under the leadership of instructor Ye Rong, a group of bear children or carrying plastic knives formed a big knife team. or carry a toy gun to form a marine, or hold a Balala's little wand to form a magic unit, and so on, and so on, and march in a neat pace......
"Salute!!"
Met the villagers, accompanied by Ye Rong's slogan. The small militia all saluted.
The villagers were frightened, and they flashed far away, in case they were caught and beaten by Ye Rong's small militia again...... The key is that you can't fight back yet, a group of five, six, seven or eight year-old kids, if you dare to fight back, he dares to cry and break his throat!
After Ye Rong's troops walked away, the villagers dared to whisper, "This Ye Rong feels simple, and he has a lot of fun with a group of little kids." β
"Yes! My children have been badly taught by him, and he said that he would arrest my daughter-in-law and serve the instructor! β
ββ¦β¦β
Afternoon.
Ye Rong led the notorious team to inspect it. Eventually, back to the original training ground.
Looking at the messy bear child, he nodded in praise, "Not bad!" You're all good! I declare now that you are already qualified militia fighters! In the future, we must carry forward the spirit of the militia! Love your family, love the people, and love the country! And defend what we love, even without fear of sacrifice! β
After some praise, Ye Rong continued to announce, "Now, disband!" Go back to your own house. Rest well and go to school tomorrow! β
"Yayβ"
One by one, the little comrades-in-arms heard that there would be no more training, and they all became excited.
After all, for their small bodies, Instructor Ye Rong's training. It's still very harsh and hard.
But after the cheers......
When it comes to going to school tomorrow, they quit one after another!
Compared to going to school, it seems that playing like this is more fun!
For a while, there was mourning all over the field.
"Instructor, we don't want to go to school, we want to follow you and continue to be a militia!"
"How does this work?"
Ye Rong shook his head. Strict education, "reading, learning, learning knowledge, is also very important, knowledge changes fate, for the rise of China and study, but also to serve the motherland." β
"Okay then......" The words of the instructor, the little militia was trained for five days, and they were still able to listen.
Ye Rong finally said: "Disbanded!" β
"Hey......"
Just when the little militiamen sighed and hung their heads and were about to leave the training place forever and leave the dear instructor, a sharp-eyed slightly tall little boy suddenly pointed in the direction of the back mountain and said in surprise: "Look, why is the back mountain smoking?" β
The other children also looked at the back hill and wondered, "Is someone burning straw?" β
"Possibly."
Hearing the children's discussions, Ye Rong also looked up......
I really don't know if I don't see it, and I'm shocked when I see it!
That's not burning stubble at all!
Where the smoke is coming from the back mountain, Ye Rong once went to the back mountain to pick walnuts, knowing that it was the 300 acres of forest that Ye Guang's family had returned to forest!
The forest is smoking!
It's a forest fire!
And it seems that the fire is not small, Sangzhuang is far from the back mountain, and Ye Rong needs more than half an hour to drive a tricycle, at least more than ten miles! At such a distance, the smoke can be seen clearly, which shows that the fire is very large!
Now it is autumn and the weather is dry, and the grass and trees withered earlier due to the higher terrain in the back mountain.
If so...... It feels very serious, the fire will grow when it encounters the wind, and the 300 acres of Ye Guang's mountain forest will probably be burned clean!
And the country protects the ecology, if this kind of thing really happens, I am afraid that it will be earth-shattering, and maybe it will alarm Beijing and be broadcast on the news......
"Quick!"
Ye Rong didn't dare to be sloppy, and immediately began to order, "The little militiamen are all back." All assembled! β
After the assembly is completed, the task is quickly assigned, "Girls, now hurry up and go door to door and ask for help." Go up the hill to fight the fire! β
"Yes!" A group of girls with little balala wands quickly run away to complete the mission.
Ye Rong drew out some of the younger ones, "You go and help them girls, you have a big voice." Running and shouting on the road in the village. β
"Yes!"
"The mountain behind is on fire! Everyone, go put out the fire! The little boy shouted and ran, shouting all the way through Sangzhuang.
Ye Rong continued to assign tasks, "You go and inform Ye Guang's family!" His woods are on fire! β
"Yes!"
"You go to the police, call the fire!"
"Yes!"
"The older ones are the ones who are a little older, get in the car with me! Go up the hill to fight the fire! β
Ye Rong drove a tricycle and distributed a water container to each person, including a washbasin, a bucket, and pots and pans......
More than half an hour later.
Ye Rong led six children around 10 years old to arrive at the scene of the Houshan fire in the first batch!
The trees in front of you are lush and green, but the smoke is thick and the visibility is not very high.
I feel choked on my breath.
I can't see the flames yet......
This is already the best-case scenario!
There was smoke. It shows that it was not blown away by the wind, there was no wind, and the fire did not spread so quickly.
The lack of flames means that it is relatively safe.
Before figuring out the real situation, Ye Rong didn't dare to send a few children in to fight the fire.
Human life is at stake, and safety comes first.
"...... like this"
Ye Rong assigned the children an absolutely safe task, pointed to the path to the left under his feet, and said: "This path leads to the abandoned Menling Kiln Village, this village has no villagers now, and it was all contracted by Ye Guang with 300 acres of mountain land and the village back then. When the land was farmed, in this abandoned village. It is regarded as a temporary residence by Ye Guang, so there is water and electricity. You, then, are responsible for finding water. β
"Yes!"
After the children went to find a water source, Ye Rong turned on the compass on his mobile phone. Look for the direction, avoid getting lost in the smoke, and then alone, facing the smoke, rushed into the woods where there is no day and no direction.
Choked and coughed all the way, Ye Rong went about 500 meters deeper. Only then did I finally find the flames!
The flames were not in the canopy, nor were they more than a meter high, they were all on the ground.
Because there is no wind, it is relatively safe.
Ye Rong approached the fire and took a closer look, due to the high altitude of the mountaintop, autumn came early, the fallen leaves on the ground piled up, and the grass and trees withered. But after all, it is early autumn, the fallen leaves are not completely dry, and the withered grass and trees still have a lot of water.
Therefore, the burning fire is not very strong, it does not burn as high as the canopy, and it only climbs slowly on the ground, and produces a lot of smoke.
In this case, Ye Rong is still more willing to see it......
The next step is to determine the extent of the fire.
Ye Rong ran roughly around the flames, and after visual inspection, estimation, and step volume, it was about two or three acres of land.
The leaves of the trees within the area of the fire were blackened and curled, and the trunks were also black, but there was no sign of burning.
Even some of the green grass and trees on the ground were not burned much.
The fire just burned out in a dry position, spreading one path after another, and then continued to smoke ......
Ye Rong could only secretly exclaim, "Great! β
This situation is really very good, there is not much danger, and it is relatively easy to extinguish the fire.
Of course, it is not realistic to rely only on Ye Rong and a few children to completely extinguish the flames and eliminate the early warning. When the follow-up villagers arrive, or even the fire alarm firefighters arrive, can the firefighting be completed.
And Ye Rong and a few children can only control the fire as much as possible before they arrive, and they can't let the fire continue to expand and spread! This is already the greatest solution to the crisis!
Ye Rong detected the basic information of the fire, and then began to return the same way.
As soon as I got back to the tricycle, I happened to see a few children holding a basin with water in it.
When they saw Ye Rong, they said excitedly: "Instructor, we have found a water source!" β
"Great!"
Ye Rong assigned the task again, "The six of you are now divided into three groups, two people in each group. The first group greeted the villagers who came to the rescue on the main road and pointed out the location of the fire and the water source. The second group took the empty basin and continued to fetch water. The third group, bring water and follow me to fight the fire! Don't get into the smoke without my permission, it's easy to get lost, and even your life is in danger. You two follow me to fight the fire, you must be careful, always follow me, don't lose it. β
"Yes!"
At this moment, six children who are only about 10 years old, in the face of being ordered in danger, actually have a sense of mission and responsibility, and even their blood is boiling, and their hearts are beating wildly!
Needless to say, this will be a heroic deed that they will never forget and even be proud of for a lifetime!
