Chapter 244: The Power of a Soldier

When it comes to rescue, my side of the story is more realistic, but most of these are from the captain's perspective. Talking about myself, I only participated in one, and that was to go to the rescue of Xiaura. Flash floods are not the same as floods, they are so fast that they can barely be stopped. And the rescue was actually a little bit of preparation, and I remember being pulled to carry sandbags in the factory at that time. At that time, it was piled up more than three meters high, thinking that there was nothing wrong. Outcome...... Destroyed in the blink of an eye.

Therefore, urban sewerage projects are very important.

.......

At this time, a large number of soldiers had gathered outside the city in March, and these soldiers were not wearing military uniforms, but wearing the most ordinary physical training uniforms, and they were also wearing life jackets.

One by one, they grabbed the safety rope and slowly approached the trapped people in the turbulent water.

Wang Aiguo looked at them and found that each of them had many wounds on their bodies, and it seemed that the rescue work was not as smooth as he imagined.

At this time, an officer dressed in armed police clothes came to the shore with a middle-aged woman on his back, and when he saw the captain, his eyes were obviously excited. So he hurriedly put down the woman on his back and rushed to the captain.

"Hello chief, I am the squadron leader of the March City Armed Police Brigade. Are you here to help? There was an incomparable excitement in the squadron leader's language.

The captain nodded hurriedly and said, "Hello, I am the captain of the East River ship." On the orders of his superiors, he came here to do an emergency maneuver. We also have the army and armed police forces in Ningcheng here. There are more than 300 people in total, where do you need help now? ”

The squadron leader showed a happy expression on his face, and hurriedly said, "Great, there is a shortage of manpower now." But why did you get over like this? ”

"Oh, the mountain road is blocked on our way here. We had no choice but to run over first. The captain explained.

After the captain finished speaking, the squadron leader was stunned at that time, and then said with a shocked face: "You guys came here?" Oh my God, how long have you been running? ”

"About three hours." The captain smiled wryly.

The squadron leader hurriedly shook the captain's hand, his eyes were full of excitement: "Comrade captain, you are really excellent. When this is over, we must treat you to a good meal. ”

"Let this go in advance, let's get down to business first."

"Okay, now you can see the situation, the water is surging so fast that a lot of people are trapped. We don't know how long the rain will last, and we don't know if the water level will rise. Therefore, we can only seize the time to move the trapped people to a safe place first. Now we are roughly divided into four units. We pushed from outside the city to inside the city, rescuing the trapped people along the way. There are three more, one outside the city at the other end, and on both sides of the city. ”

As soon as the squadron leader said this, the captain immediately understood, two of the four troops were to rescue outside the city, and two were to rescue inside the city, so that the advance would basically not miss the area.

But there is still a problem, and that is that there is too little manpower.

"We have rescued all the way, and there are no more trapped people outside. The captain asks you to lead people to advance into the city, and immediately rescue the trapped people. But I still have to warn you that the situation is very bad right now, and you must protect yourself. After the squadron leader finished speaking, he turned around and threw himself into the rescue.

Wang Aiguo looked at the back of the squadron leader leaving, and was stunned for a moment. He hadn't paid attention when he came up just now, but now he found that the squadron leader was actually barefoot, and the soles of the other party's feet showed a miserable white color.

As if seeing Wang Aiguo's doubts, the captain leaned in and whispered: "Soak in the water for a long time, plus there is a lot of gravel in the water and daily necessities washed out of the city." His shoes must have rotten, and they shouldn't have a way to restock them now, so they have to go barefoot. ”

Wang Aiguo was stunned, and then said in surprise: "But in this case, if they are infected, they will probably not even be able to save their feet." ”

"There are not so many options for many things, we are soldiers, and our duty is to protect the people." The captain also said helplessly.

Wang Aiguo was stunned, and then turned his head to look at the squadron leader.

The squadron leader is also a battalion-level officer, but at this time he is no different from ordinary soldiers, he does not command on the shore, but goes into the water with everyone to save people.

"Auntie, stay here for a while, someone will take you to a safe place later." A young man from the armed police carried a middle-aged woman on his back to Wang Aiguo's not far away.

After letting go of the middle-aged woman, the young man wanted to rush back into the water to save people. However, at this time, the rescued lady grabbed the young man.

The young man was stunned for a moment, and saw that the eldest lady wiped the young man's face with her sleeve, and said with concern while wiping the eldest lady: "Young man, take a rest when you are tired, we can still bear it." You must pay attention to safety, and you must not have any problems. ”

The young man smiled, saluted the eldest lady, and then rushed back into the water at a rapid pace.

Wang Aiguo was extremely shocked when he saw this scene in front of him, he had seen refugees abroad on TV before. When they encountered a natural disaster, their expressions were extremely desperate.

However, in China, Wang Aiguo found that even if they were besieged by the flood, those people did not panic in the slightest. Because they know that the People's Liberation Army is coming, as long as our People's Liberation Army comes, they will definitely be fine.

Thinking of this, Wang Aiguo couldn't help but feel warm in his heart. At this moment, he felt extremely relieved to wear this military uniform, because he had countless comrades-in-arms around him, countless comrades-in-arms who could trust his back.

At this time, the captain blew the whistle, and then said loudly: "Okay, we are going to start the rescue too." The heads of departments led their own departments to rescue separately, and the veteran non-commissioned officers served as team leaders and were responsible for organizing detailed rescues. Putting people's lives as a priority, but don't forget to protect yourself. Remember, we can only save more people if we live. ”

"Yes." The crowd responded.

……

Flash floods are different from floods, and floods need to be combed and stopped. However, flash floods do not need them, and the nature of flash floods is that they come and go quickly. Flash floods don't need to be blocked, and basically as soon as the rain stops, the flow will slowly recede after a few days.

Therefore, flash floods are not considered flood fighting, in theory, they should be rescued, and everyone's first priority is to rescue the trapped masses.

However, while flash floods are not as monstrous as floods, they are more dangerous than floods. Just like the flash flood they saw on the way to Wang Aiguo, there was a lot of dirt and trees in the torrent, plus a very fast speed. In this case, entering the water to save people is almost using your own life to fight for the people to survive.

In addition, when he really came to the scene, Wang Aiguo found that a lot of the heavy equipment they brought was not used at all.

If nothing else, let's talk about lifeboats. As long as this thing enters the water, no matter how much power you drive, it will definitely be swept away by the current.

At this time, the safety rope is more reliable.

Just when Wang Aiguo was stunned, the captain had already run to his side and said, "Fatty, we're going to set off too." ”

"Yes." Wang Aiguo picked up the equipment, and ran with the captain without saying a word.
