Chapter 229: A wave of unsettled waves rises again

Solemnity is awakened by mosquitoes.

Smack-

Rising from the wet spot, he reached out and slapped him on the neck again.

In the dim light, the mud in the palm of his hand was stained with several slapped mosquitoes, and around the mosquitoes was a circle of blood.

The fourth flood peak had just passed in the afternoon, but fortunately the breach had been blocked in the morning, and the embankment and sub-embankment had been reinforced.

When the flood peak passed, all the troops involved in the battle received orders to rest in place and not return to the camp.

Because accidents often occur when they think they are at their safest, although the flood peak has passed, the water flow is still very fast, and the upstream still rains continuously, and no one waits until the next flood peak will form.

In the event of an accident, at least 2,000 officers and men will be on guard here, and they will be able to rush to the front line at any time to rescue the emergency.

Standing up solemnly, the rain cloth under him was slippery and wet, and it felt very weird.

Looking around, in the woods not far from Zidi, and even on the piles of sandbags that had been packed for backup, there were their comrades sleeping everywhere.

Zhuang Yan never thought that he could fall asleep in such an environment, there was mud everywhere, mosquitoes were flying, and almost all the soldiers slept in life jackets and vests.

There is no point in changing clothes, maybe the next moment you will start to reinforce the embankment frantically, maybe the next moment you will have to rush again, maybe the next moment you will find that a certain section of the embankment is seeping water and needs to be repaired, maybe the next moment, a certain overwhelmed embankment will suddenly collapse and burst.

Majeredom now finally realizes what it means to be called a battlefield.

There's no bullets here, but it's a battlefield.

The embankment is still brightly lit, and the troop generators around the woods have arrived, and a high-power lamp is erected every few tens of meters, heading towards the embankment.

The military and civilians have formed a patrol team to patrol back and forth on the embankment in this area, and if they find any danger, they will immediately issue an alarm as quickly as possible.

It's quiet now, only the buzzing of mosquitoes can be heard.

The solemnity is overwhelming, and even the most highly trained soldiers are helpless to deal with these little mosquitoes.

He took out a cigarette and a lighter from under his camouflage uniform.

In order to release the water, solemnly wrapped a plastic bag around the cigarette.

It's a pity that the bag broke.

The water soaked the cigarette to a thin pulp.

"Hell!"

When I needed cigarettes to repel mosquitoes the most, I was gone.

Solemnly sighed.

"Solemn."

Beside him, there was a sound not much louder than the cry of mosquitoes.

solemnly turned to the side and looked, it was actually an old daze.

The old confused took out a plastic bag wrapped in several layers and handed it to Zhuang Yan.

solemnly took it and opened the plastic paper, and there was a pack of cigarettes lying inside.

"How do you have smoke?" Majest was amazed.

Old Confused is a non-smoker.

The old confused whispered, "I bought it." ”

"If you don't smoke, why do you buy cigarettes?" Solemnly asked.

The old confused said: "Smoked mosquitoes, when mosquito coils, I can't carry a bag of mosquito coils in my clothes, right?" Anyway, if it is lit and sprayed everywhere, mosquitoes will not dare to approach. ”

Zhuang Yan couldn't help but cover his mouth and smile, gave a thumbs up and said, "Talent!" ”

He pulled out one, lit it, and returned the rest to the old confused.

The two of them lit cigarettes and looked out at the embankment not far away in the woods.

"Solemnly, you said that we will fight the flood this time, when will we go back?"

"I don't know, I have to ask those flood control experts." Zheng Zheng said: "However, on the side of GA County, the engineer company of the Tashan army has buried 20 tons of explosives and is ready to divide the flood at any time, and it is said that if the water level in Shashi exceeds 45 meters, the embankment will be blown up immediately to divide the flood, otherwise it will not be able to carry the ......."

"Didn't you carry the fourth flood peak yesterday?" The old confused said, "I heard that along the Yangtze River, our whole army has mobilized nine divisions of troops to station, plus the local armed police, the provincial military district, and the flood fighting team of non-governmental organizations, it is estimated that there are more than 200,000 people, right?" Withstandable. ”

"I hope so, don't you go to evacuate the people in the flood distribution area two days ago? That day, our group met a local people, sent their family to the county seat, and quietly went back again, saying that the fish pond had taken out a loan and raised fish, even if the people escaped, the fish was gone, and he would rather die with his own fish......"

The old confused fell silent, smoking a cigarette and not speaking.

"Hey, are you all awake?" Wang Dazui suddenly got up from the ground, "You don't call me when you smoke, and you are a revolutionary comrade-in-arms, it's not interesting enough!" ”

The old confused handed the cigarette to Wang Dazui, Dazui lit the cigarette, sprayed a smoke ring, and said: "You don't know, last night at dinner, the captain and Deputy Commander Huang and the deputy head of the Tashan Regiment chatted there, I eavesdropped when I passed by, it is said that the No. 2 head of the Central Committee personally came to Jingzhou Defense Headquarters, and asked for a report on the flood situation every hour. ”

Suddenly, there were a few confused exclamations around several people, and someone was vaguely heard shouting again: "It's broken...... Fast...... Fast...... Come on! ”

The few people who were nervous suddenly jumped down.

"Holy! What's the break!? Majest almost didn't jump up from the ground.

"It's okay, it's okay!" Wang Dazui waved his hand solemnly and motioned for him to sit down, "Scolding, it's Liu Ruiyong, who is talking in his dreams!" ”

After speaking, he moved his position and pushed Liu Ruiyong.

"Hey! Stop dreaming! You kid is shouting so nonsense, and I'll say later that you're lying about the military. ”

Liu Ruiyong was woken up by Wang Dazui, opened his eyes and looked at the sky, as if his soul had not returned to his body.

It took a while before he sat up and kept wiping the sweat from his forehead.

"Have you had a nightmare?" Solemnly asked.

Liu Ruiyong looked at the rest of the people and said, "Yes, I dreamed, I dreamed ......."

"Dream of a levee breach, right?" Wang Dazui pointed in the direction of the embankment: "It's okay, the embankment is fine." ”

Liu Ruiyong breathed a sigh of relief, shook his head and said, "If you don't sleep, you're scared into a cold sweat." ”

"Don't you guys want to sleep? Don't want to sleep on the side, don't go to other people. Lao Qi suddenly sat up half a body from the crowd, looked at a few soldiers under him, and stared at a pair of eyes and warned: "Let you sleep, if you don't sleep, you may have to rescue during the day, don't you want to live?" ”

"Can't sleep, squad leader." Said solemnly and truthfully: "It's a little cold here. ”

Luo Xiaoming's tone eased a little and said, "If you really don't care, just go to the side, and the others will have to sleep." ”

Several people quickly stood up, trying to get out of the grove and move outside.

As soon as he walked out of the woods, there was a sudden rush of whistles in the air.

Then, the sound of the electric horn sounded.

"Teach the urgent assembly of the brigade! Assemble in the open space in front of the Temporary Headquarters! ”

The whistle woke up all the officers and soldiers on the ground.

Almost reflexively, everyone stood up in a daze, and immediately picked up their shovels and rushed towards the temporary headquarters after hearing the location of the assembly point.

The temporary headquarters was erected yesterday, a small tent, in which communication equipment such as walkie-talkies and radios are placed.

At present, the telecommunications support has kept up, and the flood-fighting units along the line have been distributed with mobile phones, walkie-talkies, and radios, and military telephones have been set up in many temporary command posts to facilitate communication.

Captain Wen Zhixing ran out of the makeshift tent with a pair of rabbit eyes, and like the other soldiers, he also stayed up all night here last night.

Standing in the queue, solemn and the others were a little confused.

The embankment in front of me is fine, but why did you suddenly gather urgently?

"There is a dangerous situation in the downstream section of the Minle Embankment, and it was the chief who ordered us to rush over there immediately to support!"

Hurriedly spoke, and the captain waved his hand.

"Get on board!"

Yesterday more than a dozen trucks were filled, and today the people of the car battalion have replaced them with new ones.

In this flood fight, all the old bottoms of the troops were taken out, and the cars were not supposed to be cars, they could block the water, and they were willing to fill everything in.

Everyone lined up and climbed into the truck one by one.

Sitting in the rickety car, before the departure time, the cooking team threw several boxes of instant noodles and mineral water into the compartment of each truck.

That's the breakfast.

But it's better than nothing.

Everyone uses Lao Qi's set - sprinkle it on the dough with a seasoning bun and gnaw it dry.

The car drove all the way, and the officers and soldiers gnawed all the way.

Suddenly, the car creaked and stopped.

"Arrived?" Solemnly stunned.

The soldier at the rear of the carriage lifted the tarpaulin and suddenly shouted: "! ”

Zhuang Zhuang hurriedly stretched out his head to look out, and when he saw it, he was also startled.

Under the wheels, the boiling water began to spread and reached the position of the axles.

"Can't drive anymore, get out of the car!" The driver shouted in the cab.

Soon, Zhou Huping's voice came from the ground: "The third squadron gets off!" Right away! ”

Everyone pushed open the tailgate and jumped down one by one.

After getting out of the car, solemnly saw the panoramic view of the surroundings.

He gasped.
