Chapter 216: Falling into the water in distress

"Uncle......

solemnly breathed a sigh of relief and stepped forward to help the middle-aged man up.

"Do you think this will work, let's stay with another comrade-in-arms and try to move out of the position, the young and strong villagers here let the children, the old people and the women get on the boat first, and I will accompany the rest of you here......"

His gaze swept over everyone.

Several middle-aged men who had been anxious to squeeze onto the boat lowered their heads.

"This eldest sister Jiang is going to lead the way, and the other two are our comrades-in-arms of the Zhouqiao Army, they want to drive the boat, and the two of us will stay!"

He pointed to Wang Datong.

Wang Datong nodded, and also said: "Yes, yes, yes, the two of us stay, you can rest assured, the troops will definitely come back, believe us." ”

The rest of the young and middle-aged people also nodded, and everyone slowly got out of the way.

Zhuang Yan and Wang Datong hurriedly sent the old man and children on the hillside, as well as a few women to the boat.

Nine adults and three children were crammed into the boat, and there were three younger, stronger men on the shore.

Huang Hanrui sat on the side of the assault boat and nodded vigorously at the solemnity: "Solemn, don't worry!" I will be back soon! ”

With that, the motor roared, and the assault boat slowly turned and penetrated, and soon disappeared into the night.

When the assault boat left, Wang Datong saw that there was no one around, and asked solemnly in a whisper: "Are you sure that the boat will definitely find us?" ”

Yan Yan didn't even think about this at all.

Although he was holding the map and Jiang Wenying was leading the way, the lights were dark, and the flood almost submerged all the landmarks, so there was no way to search for a fixed area according to the original plan.

I opened it indiscriminately before, and I just accidentally saw the fire here.

"Nope." He said solemnly and in a low voice: "Don't shout with your big mouth. ”

Wang Datong pursed his lips, didn't say anything, and followed the solemn onto the hill.

Several people sat by the fire, silently waiting.

No one spoke.

Except for the rumbling of the water, and the occasional muffled sound of something striking from a distance, the silence was terrifying.

Zhuang Yan didn't know how to open his mouth to comfort these people.

They have no land, no dealers, no houses, and even some people's relatives are uncertain, and they solemnly feel that they are not qualified and have no way to make them feel at ease.

For solemnity, the night was long.

The water was still rising, and this small hill, which was not high, was soon left with less than ten square meters of space for people to sit.

Those who stayed here had apparently begun to become more and more anxious.

The boat has been gone for an hour and has not returned......

"They ......" the middle-aged man who had been crying before suddenly asked, "Will you come back...... You can't find us, can you? ”

"No!" Zhuang Yan can only hold on hard-headed now, he can't show his timidity, otherwise the scene will be chaotic.

"We soldiers never give up on our comrades-in-arms, let alone you people, they will definitely come back!"

"But this water ......," the middle-aged man looked behind him, and the flood water had spread less than two meters away.

Zhuang Zhuang thought about it, took off the life jacket on his body, and handed him to the middle-aged man.

"Take it!"

"You ......" The middle-aged man didn't expect that the soldier in front of him would actually hand him the only life jacket on his body.

Life jacket.

In the Great Flood, this is the only hope of survival.

"We've practiced swimming, and we're going to be fine!"

looked back at Wang Datong and said, "Isn't it?" ”

Wang Datong also took off his life jacket and handed it to another citizen.

"Take it." He said.

There are only three ordinary people, and now two of them have life jackets on them.

The middle-aged man's hands on the opposite side trembled a little, and after a long time, his tears suddenly flowed down and said, "People's Liberation Army...... The PLA is the greatest ......"

Time flies by, bit by bit.

The ship, still not in sight.

The water began to completely submerge the hill bag less than five meters high, and Zhuang Yan and others were all soaked in water below their ankles.

"Standing on top of the chicken coop, you can still stand up for a while!" Wang Datong said.

Several people quickly climbed onto the chicken coop and stuck to the broken brick wall less than a meter high.

"It's over...... Now...... It's all over......" The middle-aged man was a little overwhelmed, and his mouth muttered: "I'm unwilling, if my wife and children don't die...... They may have been rescued and are waiting for me on the shore......"

The indescribable feeling in his solemn heart, now, really facing danger, he suddenly regretted why he didn't write a letter to his parents.

At this point, he realized that he had too much to say to his father.

For so many years, he has been-for-tat with his father, but he wants to tell his father that he is not shocked and hates him......

Although he learned to swim more than a week ago, he was only a junior brother after all, and in the face of the extremely fast flood, he had no bottom in his heart.

The water had already overflowed to the chicken coop, and the solemn feet had been completely immersed in the water.

The little animals, which had lost their shelter from the land, were once again approaching the chicken coop.

Snakes, rats, frogs, and toads......

No one cares about that anymore, and it's nice to get out alive.

Huang Hanrui's ship, why hasn't it arrived yet?

It's been an hour and a half......

Are they lost?

Now that the fire had been extinguished, there were no obvious signs, and it was so dark that even if a ship passed by, you couldn't see yourself if you were too far away.

"If you hear the sound of a motor later, remember to blow the whistle!" Solemnly said to the middle-aged man, pointing to the whistle tied to his life jacket, "Then they will come over to us." ”

Before the middle-aged man answered.

Suddenly, the earthen wall under his feet finally could not withstand the impact of the flood, and all five people fell into the water with a bang.

"Later, if we get swept away, remember, swim that way!" Wang Datong shouted at everyone, pointing to a few poplar trees not far behind him, "As long as you hold on to the trees, you will be saved!" ”

Solemnly look around for something that can be used as a floating object, even if it's a piece of wood.

It's a pity that there is nothing......

The water has reached the abdomen.

Suddenly, a wave hit, Zhuang Yan and Wang Datong, and a few ordinary people were directly washed out a few meters away by the flood......

"Solemn! Go downstream with the water! Wang Datong was the first to get out of the water, and he was looking for solemnity everywhere.

Wheel-water, he is better than solemn.

However, there was no solemnity around, only two ordinary people wearing life jackets floating and sinking next to them and drifting into the distance.

"Paddle! Grab the tree! Otherwise, you will die! ”

Wang Datong said as he desperately swam towards the trees that had been determined.

Solemnly dazed and swept into the water, he was caught off guard by two mouthfuls of turbid river water, and finally surfaced.

Half a month ago, if I encountered this situation, I would definitely die.

Now, he was suddenly glad that he was carried into the sea by Lao Qi with a backpack belt.

He suddenly understood a truth, although the squad leaders and officers in the army looked rough, they were actually saving themselves.

They use all kinds of coercive means to force themselves to learn various skills, in fact, they want to prevent themselves from dying in vain at certain critical moments.

"When you go back, you must invite Lao Qi to go to the small shop to have a good meal of dace and boiled noodles!"

Fortunately, it has been more than six hours since the levee burst, and the current is no longer as rapid as when it first burst, and it has become relatively gentle.

Although the solemn armed swimming is not excellent, but in this case, it can also protect itself.

But physical strength is limited, you have to hold on to the tree, without the tree, sooner or later you will drown in the flood zone.

From a distance, he saw Wang Datong floating on the water, about thirty meters in front of him, swimming towards the agreed position of the tree.

"Chase!"

While paddling solemnly, try to align your rafting route with a few poplar trees.

"Follow me!" Wang Datong heard the solemn voice behind him, and he didn't dare to stop or turn his head, for fear of missing the location of a few trees.

There is only one chance, and I don't know how long I will drift before I can find another tree.

In case you can't find ......

Waiting for you can only be a dead end.

Solemnly used all his strength, and he felt that he was now more energetic and better swimming than when he was swimming.

Death is like a beast hidden in the darkness behind it, as long as you relax and are not careful, you will pounce out of the darkness and swallow yourself in one bite......

Wang Datong was the first to catch the poplar tree.

Several other ordinary people were caught by him when they passed by, and one tree was properly arranged.

A veteran is a veteran, and in terms of psychological quality, Wang Datong is more calm than solemn.

This is due to the fact that he has already participated in sea training and has good swimming skills.

Thankfully, God willing.

Majesque did not miss a few poplar trees, he grabbed one of them and clung to it.

Suddenly, he felt something move in his chest.

When I looked down, my scalp tingled.

It's a couple of toads and a snake.

He didn't care to be afraid, so he quickly pushed these things away with his hands, and then climbed up the tree, and found a tree to barely step on.

"Are you alright?"

"It's fine!"

"I ...... I'm still ......."

The three ordinary people were already so frightened that they were trembling.

"Now, we can only wait......" Wang Datong looked around and smiled helplessly.

Solemnly remembered the whistle and said to the middle-aged man in the life jacket: "Remember, when you hear the sound of the motor, blow the whistle." ”

Before he could finish speaking, the middle-aged man suddenly began to whistle.

Dididi——

A crisp, shrill whistle echoed above the dark water.

"What are you doing!?" Solemnly asked.

The middle-aged man said, "I hear the sound of the motor!" ”

"Really!?" Zhuang solemnly hurriedly pricked up his ears and listened carefully.

Sure enough, the sound of a motor really came to my ears.

However, it didn't look like the sound of an assault boat's motor.

"It's a helicopter!" Wang Datong pointed to the sky and shouted loudly.

A dark shadow with a few small lights flashing appeared in the night.

"We're here!! Come and save us! The middle-aged man waved to the sky for the first time.

Solemn smiled bitterly: "It's useless, they can't hear the ......"

The last time I was in the mountains to rescue a squadron and a team, I saw a helicopter up close.

The sound of air currents and propellers near the helicopter can drown out everything, let alone the sound of being at an altitude of 100 meters.

The searchlight under the belly of the helicopter swept around the water like a bright pillar of light.

The middle-aged man was unwilling, picked up the whistle and blew it violently.

The solemn can only pray now that the pilot or flight attendant of the helicopter can see himself and a few other people on the water.

Or maybe there will be a miracle and they actually hear the whistle below?

A few minutes later, though, reality brutally slapped the solemn face.

The miracle did not happen, and the helicopter circled nearby for a while, turned around and flew somewhere else.

The surroundings were once again plunged into silence and darkness.

Everyone's hearts are cooler than the rivers around them.
