After intense discussions, the on-site command team came to the conclusion: first, the rescue must be carried out immediately, there is no time to wait for the construction machinery to be in place, and second, a person needs to wade through the water to deploy the cable.

The only way to use a cable to build a zipline and transfer the trapped people out one by one.

The water is turbulent and the water depth reaches 1.6 meters, and it is extremely difficult to reach the trapped building without relying on one's own strength. You need people who are very good at water, and you need people who are very strong. Even then, it could not stabilize the flow of water that could wash away the car.

Li Shuai immediately said, "I can only dive over, find a few big stones to tie up, and dive over against the ground." ”

"This, more than fifty meters away, Li Shuai, I'm afraid I won't be able to dive for three or four minutes, right?" Su Pingguo was taken aback, and hurriedly said, "This, this won't work at all!" ”

Some people may be able to do more than two minutes of sneaking under quiet water, but this is a torrent with a strong current, let alone three or four minutes, and there is no one who can carry it for two minutes, not to mention dragging dozens of pounds of stones!

"Down, down!" A soldier exclaimed.

The northeast corner of the trapped house began to collapse, and the impact of the water flow was one factor, and the water infiltration into the wall reduced the stiffness of the wall, and it began to collapse at this time. The officers and soldiers watched the houses collapse and could do nothing, their eyes were red and their teeth were solid.

At this time, unless a miracle happens, there is no way back.

The trapped houses began to collapse from the northeast corner, and the solid-fortified concrete buildings were as fragile as tofu blocks, falling down piece by piece, and then quickly washed away until they disappeared without a trace.

The collapse came to an abrupt halt, and no more serious incidents occurred after the collapse of the piece in the northeast corner.

The hearts of the officers and men, which were gradually falling, were suddenly raised, and hope was rekindled in their eyes.

Li Shuai no longer hesitated, and yelled, "Find a stone!" Tie it solid with a backpack rope! ”

No one objected to Li Shuai's plan.

"Handsome, I'll come." Su Pingguo dragged Li Shuai aside and whispered, "Your injury is not good yet, let me be injured." ”

Li Shuai suddenly smiled and said, "Guo'er, it's not that I look down on you, even if I don't get hurt well, Lisuo is better than you." What is your anaerobic diving score? Is there three minutes? ”

"Nope." Su Pingguo shook his head.

Isn't this nonsense, can you do three minutes of anaerobic diving casually, and professional divers are just that, right?

Li Shuai said solemnly, "I can, so you can rest, show me the safety rope, if I don't float up for more than three minutes, you can quickly drag me up, do you know?" Lao Tzu's more than 100 catties are all entrusted to you. ”

"I'm going to drag you back even if I'm dead!" Su Pingguo's eyes were red, and he said heavily.

The 100-pound stone was wrapped in a raincoat and tied with a backpack rope, and then a slipknot was made out of the backpack rope, leaving a length of two meters. Li Shuai took off his clothes and only wore underwear and vests, and the few soldiers who approached were stunned, and under the light, he could clearly see that Li Shuai had many scars on his body, some of which could be said to be shocking. Li Shuai quickly tied the slipknot around his waist, tied the safety rope, and picked up a hundred catties of stones with one hand and walked underwater.

The officers and soldiers watched as Li Shuai was quickly submerged.

The current was still turbulent, Li Shuai was gone, and if it weren't for the safety rope slowly moving forward, the officers and soldiers would not be able to stand at all. Su Pingguo, who was responsible for controlling the safety rope, and several other soldiers with the greatest strength couldn't say anything at all in their throats, and the hands holding the safety rope trembled slightly, and they had a strong desire to pull the rope to pull people out, but the duty of the soldiers always reminded them that they couldn't move, and they definitely couldn't move until they rescued the trapped people, unless it was more than three minutes!

Su Pingguo glanced at the countdown every few seconds, and the time was walking second by second, and the safety rope was still slowly extending forward.

For a moment, the safety rope did not move, and Su Pingguo thought that he was hallucinating, but soon found that it was really not moving. He subconsciously wanted to give an order to drag people up, but found that the time had not yet reached three minutes!

Su Pingguo was about to collapse, and the huge psychological pressure made him have a headache!

"Platoon commander! Drag it up! One of the recruits couldn't bear it anymore and said with a crying voice.

Su Pingguo's hands trembled more and more.

"Staff Officer Zhu! What to do? Su Pingguo asked Zhu Wei loudly.

Zhu Wei stared at his watch, more than fifty seconds before Li Shuai asked for three minutes, and he was also hesitating.

"Give up Staff Officer Zhu! Li Shuai is afraid that it will not work! Su Pingguo roared.

Zhu Wei gritted his teeth and was about to give an order.

One of the soldiers shouted, "Move! The rope moves! ”

—————

Once again, the safety rope slowly stretched out of the trapped house.

The hearts of the officers and soldiers that were about to jump out slowly let go.

More than a dozen lights shone in the direction of the safety rope, but there was no trace of Li Shuai for the time being, but the position of the front end of the safety rope was unswervingly moving towards the trapped house, step by step, meter by meter.

The moment Li Shuai suddenly emerged from the water, the officers and men were so excited that tears flew and they cheered loudly. Li Shuai climbed up to the third floor and untied the safety rope to tie up the wall between the window and the door frame, so that a sloping zipline was completed. The safety rope is also a zipline, made of two thumb-thick nylon ropes, which is quite strong and can bear the weight of several adults at the same time.

The two elderly people and the women and children who were trapped were crying in the hallway, and great fear took over their hearts, and they could clearly see that death was approaching as they looked at the torrential flood.

Seeing Li Shuai appear, as if seeing a savior, the young woman rushed over with her child in her arms: "Comrade of the People's Liberation Army, Comrade of the People's Liberation Army!" Save my son first, save my son first! Please! ”

The child cried in horror in his arms.

"You hold the child, carry it to me!"

Li Shuai took off the strap on the young woman's body, quickly knitted a soft hanging basket and hung it around her neck, and then took the child over. Strangely, when he took the child, the child suddenly stopped crying and looked at him with wide eyes. After Li Shuai fixed the child in a soft hanging basket to make sure that no matter how he struggled, he comforted the young women and the elderly, saying, "Don't worry, we will definitely rescue you!" ”

Hanging the hook on his waist on the zipline, Li Shuai went down slowly, and with a light glaring at the corridor guardrail, the person slid down in the air. From high to low, in the second half, most of Li Shuai's body was soaked in the water, and he held the child high with both hands, and when he was about to arrive, Li Shuai was almost submerged, and the child who was held high by him did not touch even a drop of water.

Su Pingguo rushed up with a few soldiers to respond, first picking up the child and then pulling Li Shuai up. Su Pingguo dragged Li Shuai aside and said solemnly, "Leave it to us next!" You're tweaking! ”

Li Shuai didn't do it, and this back and forth just now had consumed all his strength. It is not easy to sneak more than 50 meters in three minutes with a weight of 100 catties under water. He sat down directly in the place, and immediately a soldier brought clothes to help him put them on, and quickly brought food, and the two soldiers watched him to protect him.

With the zipline, the rescue went much smoother, and the three powerful non-commissioned officers climbed along the zipline, and then picked up the people one by one, which was only more than five minutes before and after. When the last non-commissioned officer lifted the safety rope and broke away from the zipline, the trapped building finally could not support it, and it collapsed with a bang in the water, and the dust raised was quickly pressed down by the drizzle, and when the dust settled, only some wreckage of the building was exposed to the water.

It can be seen that the water level has risen.

The very thrilling rescue made everyone break out in a cold sweat one after another.

The most difficult "mountain" was brought down, and the rescue operation in the boundary village was declared over. No civilians were injured, and two of the troops were wounded, both of whom were soldiers of the independent platoon of female recruits.

Li Shuai led the troops back to the temporary settlement site to rest, and the female recruits, who had consumed a lot of physical strength in a very short period of time, sat on the ground and gulped down hot instant noodles. Cooking trucks are constantly making hot food to give priority to the affected people. The supply capacity of a cooking squad was limited, and the officers and men of the unit were unable to eat hot food in time. But everyone has long been accustomed to it, and the cooking class skillfully adopted the fastest method - boiling instant noodles in a large pot, and a pot can be made in a few minutes.

"I've never eaten such delicious instant noodles." Hang Weiwei said vaguely while taking a big bite.

He Biting said, "Yes, today's instant noodles are particularly delicious. ”

"It's so delicious, it's a delicacy in the world." Hang Weiwei killed a bowl of instant noodles in two minutes, and a soldier in the cooking squad added the pot one by one, and added it when he saw that someone's bowl was empty.

Hang Weiwei began to eat the second bowl, and soon a strong sleepiness hit her, her eyelids were very heavy, and her movements of eating noodles became slower and slower, and she slowly fell asleep against the wall, still holding the bowl in her hand, and the instant noodles in the bowl were still steaming.

However, she is not the only one, Niu Jun's camera captured this touching scene. The 20-odds female soldiers, who had completely lost their image, sat against the wall, because the room was given to the common people, and they ate the taste of sky-high food with cheap instant noodles in their hands, and then fell asleep against the wall with their mouths half open in a very short time, and many people did not finish the bowl and noodles in their hands......

The young woman, who had settled her children and came out with bottles of mineral water to find hot water, was stunned when she saw the female recruits sleeping against the wall in the corridor on the first floor. Under the light, these female recruits were embarrassed, their camouflage uniforms were all mud, wet, and their faces were full of mud marks, and it could be seen that they were all young, eighteen or nineteen-year-old girls, they were sleeping with their mouths half open and they looked particularly ugly, but there was no better sleeping posture than this.

Several female soldiers, perhaps feeling the cold, subconsciously curled their bodies and hugged their arms.

The young woman took a picture with her mobile phone, she couldn't stand it anymore, and saw Zhu Wei discussing the next step with several squad leaders over there, and immediately ran over and said, "Comrade, why do you let them sleep there, it's so cold outside, their clothes are still wet." Why let them eat instant noodles and let us eat, you can't treat them differently! ”

"Oh, yes, we have a limited supply of cooking trucks, so let's have some instant noodles to cushion our stomachs first. It doesn't matter where we sleep, we're used to being soldiers. After Zhu Wei explained, he left with a few squad leaders, and there was still a lot of work to be done.

The young woman stood there in silent tears.

Li Shuai came out of the medical point, and Chen Xue'er trotted over with a big bowl of instant noodles, "Hurry up and eat something to pad your stomach, Chen Xiao is okay?" ”

"Comminuted fracture of the right knee, not a big problem. Wait for the ambulance to come and take you to the hospital. Li Shuai said that he took half a minute to brush and finish a large bowl of instant noodles.

Chen Xueer said, "I called the hospital, Li Fengxiang is out of danger, and his head is fine, but I'm afraid it will take a period of time, and I can't say for three or five months." ”

"I see." Li Shuai's face did not change, but he breathed a heavy sigh of relief in his heart.

Chen Xueer wanted to speak, but stopped.

Li Shuai asked, "Is there a new order?" ”

"Yes." Chen Xue'er said in a deep voice, "The situation in the urban area is more serious than expected, and other troops will not be able to catch up in a short time, so the disaster relief headquarters has ordered all the troops who have completed the task at hand to support the urban area." There are people from the relevant local departments here who have come to take over, and they are already on the way. ”

Li Shuai asked, "When and where do you want to arrive?" ”

"We are in charge of the old area in the south of the city, which is very densely populated, the sewer system is old, and in some places the water has reached three meters, and vehicles cannot enter at all, so rubber boats or assault boats are needed. The Disaster Relief Command asked us to arrive at 6 a.m. Chen Xueer said.

Li Shuai looked at the time, at 4:30 in the morning, he said, "Let's sleep for another ten minutes, gather at 4:40 and set off." ”

"Okay, I'll go get the vehicle ready now." Chen Xue'er went quickly.

Su Pingguo ran over and observed Li Shuai a few times, "Are you okay?" ”

"What can I do?" Li Shuai asked rhetorically.

Su Pingguo whispered, "Those scars on your body are scary enough, the previous troops are too perverted, and besides, you kid is dishonest enough." ”

"I still go around saying I'm a good diver? Don't talk nonsense, set off in ten minutes, did you get an order? Li Shuai said helplessly.

"Of course, my soldiers are already preparing, just waiting for you." Su Pingguo pointed over there, and the male recruits of Su Pingguo's platoon were recuperating.

Li Shuai nodded slightly, "The physical strength of female soldiers is not as good as that of male soldiers, let my soldiers sleep for another ten minutes." ”

"Okay, don't worry, I'll definitely be there before six o'clock." Su Pingguo said.

Looking at the row of female recruits who were sleeping against the wall, who could bear to wake them up. However, a command is an order, no matter what state you are in.

Before the ten minutes were up, the squads began to shout the order to assemble, and the female recruits woke up suddenly and quickly got up and lined up. Li Shuai had to go over in advance to sort out the troops, and after announcing the order, immediately carry out the rearmament work. The female recruits did not have any resentment, and they prepared quickly.

A few minutes later, the mixed mobile detachment lacked a squad and drove to the new position again, and Zhu Wei took a squad to stay behind to guard the people, waiting for the local people to come over and complete the handover, and then go to catch up with the large troops.
