Chapter 24: Heavy Rain
Luo Yao doesn't understand astronomy, but the sky is foggy, which makes people feel a little panicked, afraid that it is going to rain.
Really.
Tick, tick......
Before the second half of the night, it began to rain in the sky, and at first it was light, and everyone didn't pay attention to it, but then it became heavier and heavier, and it was raining again.
A rainstorm came unexpectedly.
All the campfires in the camp were extinguished by the sudden rainstorm, and nothing could be heard between heaven and earth except the sound of the torrential rain hitting the ground.
In order to protect against the cold, the tents were quite sturdy, but under the heavy rain, many of them were damaged, and many people were drenched in their sleep.
"Not good!"
Luo Yao's eyes suddenly widened, and he said to Liu Jinbao: "Old Liu, you quickly inform everyone to get up, and immediately move to the eastern slope, quickly, I will go to Deputy Captain Wang!" ”
"Lao Luo, what's wrong?" Liu Jinbao was startled, he didn't know why Luo Yao suddenly ordered him to do something, and he still transferred.
"I don't have time to explain to you in detail, you do as I say, and inform Li Fu that they must be fast, all the necessary materials must be abandoned, and they must leave here within ten minutes......" After speaking, Luo Yao had already rushed out of the tent and rushed towards the direction of the military tent of the deputy captain Wang Yueqing!
Liu Jinbao was stunned for a moment, but in the end, he gritted his teeth and chose to believe Luo Yao, this may be a matter of human life, and it is a big deal to be confined!
"Vice Captain Wang......"
The guard at the door actually failed to stop Luo Yao, and directly let him break in, but Wang Yueqing was startled and almost pulled out his gun.
Because of this sudden rainstorm, how could Wang Yueqing be able to sleep, he got up early, and called the main persons in charge of the team over.
At this moment, they are meeting in his military tent to study whether to transfer immediately, or wait for this rain to pass, or wait for dawn before moving.
Everyone was divided, and suddenly a person broke in, startling everyone.
Shen Yu, who was sitting under Wang Yueqing, saw that it was Luo Yao, and quickly stood up and raised his hand: "Don't be nervous, it's our student." ”
"Deputy Captain Wang, please transfer immediately, the flash flood will come soon!" Luo Yao wiped the rain from his face, regardless of the other people in the tent, and said directly.
"Torrents?"
When Wang Yueqing heard this, he was startled, and the place where they camped was chosen to be a low-lying place sheltered from the wind, once the mountain flood washed down, this place instantly became Zeguo.
When the time comes, these people will become underwater ghosts.
"Alarmist, although this campsite is not a commanding height nearby, the terrain here is flat, even if it rains heavily, flash floods will not form in a short time!" Chief instructor Xie Liqiu stood up and pointed at Luo Yao and shouted.
"Chief Instructor Xie, believe it or not, once the flash flood is carried by the mudslide, when the time comes, we will not be a problem of falling into the soup chicken, but all buried in the mud, can you afford this responsibility?" Luo Yao couldn't take care of it, this was more than 200 lives.
His words may not be listened to, but the orders of the headquarters are different.
"Luo Yao, how do you know that there will be flash floods and mudslides?" Shen Yu asked solemnly.
"I heard it." Luo Yao said, it is a matter of human life, and he can't take care of it, he will hear well that this special skill will be exposed sooner or later.
"Hear, ridiculous, what else could there be but the sound of rain outside?" Xie Liqiu seemed to be very dissatisfied with Luo Yao's rude behavior, and said angrily, "Besides, why can you hear it, but others can't hear it, stop talking nonsense here, hurry back to your post, and spread this kind of rumor again, I will lock you up!" ”
"There are five minutes left, if you don't leave, I'm leaving, don't blame me for not reminding you!" Luo Yao turned his head and left, staying for one more minute would be more dangerous, so he wouldn't stay and be buried with these people!
"Stop, bastard, stop him......"
Luo Yao had already rushed out of the military tent, and the guards at the door didn't stop him if they wanted to, it was like nothing.
"This Luo Yao is too lawless and undisciplined, when he arrives in Linli, I must beat him with thirty whips!" Xie Liqiu was extremely angry, a small student actually contradicted himself like this, where did he put his face!
The military tent suddenly fell silent, and at this time, it was dark outside, and it was pouring rain, even if he wanted to hold Luo Yao accountable, he couldn't find anyone for a while.
"Listen ......"
Suddenly, someone pointed out, and his tone was very hurried.
The teacups on the marching table began to shake......
All of you here are veterans and have rich experience, but I haven't encountered this situation, and I've heard about it, and everyone's faces have changed.
Especially the chief instructor Xie Liqiu, he was born in Huangpu, started from the grassroots platoon commander, and has extremely rich experience in marching, what is this voice, can he still not guess?
Was it really a flash flood?
"Quick, notify everyone, immediately move to a high place, take as many materials as you can take, and discard those that can't be taken away!" As the team leader, Wang Yueqing, the deputy captain, made a decision and gave the right order, if something happened to the people here, it is estimated that I don't know how many heads will fall to the ground.
It's been at least three minutes late!
I could have brought more supplies with me, but now, I had to abandon them and run desperately to the heights, when a light on the eastern hillside illuminated the sky, like a morning star, guiding the helpless crowd in the darkness in a safe direction.
"Don't panic, everyone, look at one by one, and watch ...... under your feet"
Liu Jinbao listened to Luo Yao's words and called the students up, at first everyone didn't believe it, but Li Fu listened, and took the lead and ran out without saying a word, and when others saw it, they all ran with him.
On the girl's side, Gong Hui was the same, put on a robe, rolled up her things, and rushed out of the tent, and the others hesitated, and when they saw the male students running out of the tent one after another, they had to follow out......
The scene was chaotic.
A few minutes later.
A faint black line enveloped the earth and trees, and with a roaring sound, it poured down towards the valley where they were camping.
On the hillside, looking at the surging mudslide not far from their feet, their faces turned pale, and if they took another step at night, they would all be buried in it.
Especially if it was Wang Yueqing and others who felt afraid, it would be enough for them to die, if the entire team was wiped out, the loss would be great.
If it doesn't work out, the special training class may die abruptly.
The rain gradually stopped in the second half of the night.
Half of the materials carried with him were buried under the mudslide, and even if they were cleared out, whether they could be used or not, it was a matter of two questions.
The tents were almost all washed away, but fortunately there were still a few spare ones, and a flat place had been found on the hillside to erect them, at least so that the people who were drenched in the rain had a place to shelter from the rain.
Many people have been drenched in this rainstorm, soaked inside and out, and if they had been wearing them, they would have frozen to death if they did not starve to death on this cold day.
Everyone had a feeling of the aftermath of the catastrophe, too much to hang, if it were a few minutes too late......
"Distribute all the wine we carry, everyone at least take a sip, gather gasoline, except for important documents, all those that can be used to light the fire, and get over the current difficulties first!" Wang Yueqing gave an order categorically.
"Did the radio get out?"
"There's one, you can use it." The communications soldier hurriedly reported.
"Immediately send a telegram to Boss Dai, the rest of the department is camping in the vicinity of Jinjiling near Yiyang, there was a sudden rainstorm in the middle of the night, and a flash flood broke out, fortunately Luo Yao of the cadet team warned in time, and was spared, but the materials were seriously damaged, and there was very little left, and the department suffered from rain, hunger and cold......"
……
Jiangcheng, an apartment, in a luxurious suite.
At about three o'clock in the morning, Dai Yunong was awakened from his sleep by a rapid knock on the door, and hurriedly got out of bed, approved a coat to open the door.
This place is known only to his secretary Mao Qiwu.
"Yu Nong, something happened, Wang Yueqing encountered a mudslide caused by heavy rain in Jinji Ridge in Yiyang, and the materials were lost, so they asked for rescue!" Mao Qiwu took out an urgent telegram from his briefcase and handed it to Dai Yunong.
"What about people?" When Dai Yunong heard this, his mind turned white, and he asked eagerly, in this special training class, he took out all the money he had saved so hard, poured a lot of effort into it, and the instructor lineup equipped with it was luxurious.
"The loss of personnel is not big, but on such a cold day, it is raining, if you wait until dawn, I am afraid that many people will fall."
"Which unit of the national army is stationed in Yiyang?" Hearing that the loss of personnel was not large, Dai Yunong's face recovered a little, and he immediately asked.
"Yiyang now belongs to the rear, and there is only one local security regiment stationed there, which force is it, and I still need to check it?"
"Then hurry up and check, and immediately call the headquarters of the Ninth Theater Commander after finding out, and ask the Theater Command to assist in the rescue!" Dai Yunong ordered.
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
"You immediately organize the purchase of a batch of supplies and send them to Yiyang as soon as possible, especially medicines, wound medicines and cold medicines, you must prepare more."
"Understood."
Dai Yunong picked up the telegram again, looked at it carefully, and found a name, Luo Yao, it was this guy who actually warned in advance and avoided heavy losses in the team's casualties, this little guy made a meritorious service.
He remembered.
