The mountain village in the distance looks a little hazy in the smoke and rain, especially the dark sky, but fortunately, the problem is not very big at present.

"Immediately send someone to scout the terrain, send someone to check inside the mountain village, and then find a place around where you can shelter from the rain, see if there are caves or something, if you can find some branches that are not wet by the rain, it would be better. We're probably going to spend the night here tonight, and we're going to have to make a fire. ”

"The temperature in the mountains drops very quickly in the rainy season, and the soldiers brave the rain to travel for a day, although they are all strong guys, but if they don't make a fire at night, there will be problems." Li Yuanjia wiped the rain from his face and gave an order.

The soldiers who received the order quickly divided into several teams and went to reconnoiter and check the situation separately, and when Li Yuanjia followed the large army to the outside of Shanhuai Village, he looked at the raging river and was a little shocked.

The terrain of Shanhuai Village is on the south side of the canyon, and Li Yuanjia is on the north side, the canyon turns a corner in this place, and the location of Shanhuai Village is just relatively flat, which is suitable for establishing a village, but after the two sides extend out, there are cliffs, and the road out of the mountain is the one they came.

Their only access to the outside world was a stone bridge over the river.

Normally, the flow of water in this river is not large, but now this heavy rain and the torrential rain upstream have caused the water of the whole river to swell at least several times, and a lot of muddy water has begun to overflow the stone bridge.

If this continues...... Once the stone bridge was washed away, Li Yuanjia looked at many houses on the opposite side that were not much taller than the stone bridge, and no one knew how long those houses could be carried.

The mountain village on the opposite side could only be resigned to fate, and when it looked up, the mountain village on the opposite side was shrouded in dim mist, like a hideous monster.

"Command! The 1st Battalion quickly looked for a settlement in the surrounding area and cut down the surrounding trees to see if they could drive some wooden stakes on both sides of the stone bridge and add railings to cross the bridge! The third battalion followed me in to save people! Be kind enough to persuade all the people out of their homes, they are in a position that is too dangerous. ”

"Yes!" Everyone received the order and immediately began to act.

Just when Li Yuanjia was about to step on the stone bridge to cross the river, suddenly a huge "boom" sound resounded throughout the valley, Li Yuanjia and the others suddenly raised their heads and looked in the direction of the sound, only to see that about a thousand meters away from Shanhuai Village, upstream of Shanhuai Village, a hillside that was originally dark gray under the dim evening sky suddenly collapsed a large piece of yellow-brown soil.

Countless boulders collapsed straight down, and dense trees rushed down in the majestic dirt and boulders, silting up most of the entire river!

The terrifying sound continued to echo in this valley, and the huge sound made many people in the opposite mountain village let out a frightened roar, and the cries of children kept coming!

"Everyone! Save! Li Yuanjia's face changed suddenly, and his whole face changed, because of this situation, he had learned this knowledge when he was studying some natural disaster rescue courses, those boulders, soil, and trees did not completely block the river, although most of them were blocked, but there was still water flowing down slowly!

However, in the case of such a torrential rain, when the river water accumulates to a certain amount, the blocked mud boulders and trees will be directly washed away, and the flood peak formed at that time, I am afraid that there will be nothing left in the mountain village opposite!

Manpower was too small in the face of such a force of nature, and the only way now was to move everyone to higher ground before that temporary levee was breached.

"Wang Tian!" Li Yuanjia said loudly.

"Here! You led ten people, and now immediately rush back to Huilong Township overnight, and tell all the downstream along the river to be ready to accept the flood peak! Remember, if you are slow to inform, maybe there will not be one or two people who die. ”

"Die to complete the mission!"

When they left in a hurry and rushed back the same way, Li Yuanjia took a deep breath, I hope they don't have problems, they are in a hurry at night and it is such a heavy rain mountain road, in the absence of lighting, it is almost no different from moving forward in the dark.

Although they brought some special torches stained with grease and rosin, there were not many of them, and Li Yuanjia didn't know how far they could go.

He is not worried about the location of Huilong Township, where the terrain is higher from the river valley, and it is all carefully selected, this flood peak is not a big problem, and such a long distance has also attenuated, but there are still a few villages on both sides of the river at a distance from Huilong Township.

Those villages are also at risk, especially as some villagers along the river have to be evacuated.

"Everyone, go into the village to save people!" Li Yuanjia gave the order.

Except for the soldiers who had already left to find some caves and other places to shelter from the rain, everyone else began to quickly take advantage of the river's decline and began to cross the river. Quite a few people didn't even take the stone bridge, but ran straight over the riverbed.

The villagers in the village were awakened by the loud noise, and when Li Yuanjia and them arrived, this time it saved them the process of persuasion, and as soon as they said it, all the villagers were willing to evacuate with them.

There was even good news, the village elders said that there was a cave not far from the mountain road they had come, where they could take shelter from the rain.

Shanhuai Village is not a small village, there are more than 100 households, Li Yuanjia led all the soldiers to disperse and rush into every family's house, but soon they encountered new problems.

"Commander, there is a situation here." Li Yuanjia walked deeper into the village, and several soldiers next to him rushed out.

"What's wrong?"

"They...... They wanted to take the family's cattle, as well as some tattered furniture, the iron pot they had just bought, and the bedding. The soldier reported quickly.

"This ...... This regiment leader, it's not that they don't know what to do, it's just ...... This is the family wealth that the family has saved for most of their lives, and the head of the regiment will take the mother-in-law and the baby together, and carry these things by yourself. A man in his twenties and thirties who looked like he was in his forties and fifties rushed over and almost knelt down for Li Yuanjia.

Looking at the hopeful gaze in this man's eyes, Li Yuanjia wanted to say that people are more important than money...... But he couldn't say it, because now he wasn't the same person he used to be who didn't know anything.

He now knows very well that for many people...... Cattle and iron tools are more important than their lives...... Because these things are really saved by them for a lifetime or even several lifetimes, and if they are gone, their family's life may be gone.

Breaking a family is worth a lot, that's what I'm talking about.

"Move! Order everyone, help them all move out, and bring only valuable livestock and iron tools! Other clay pots and the like can be burned at any time and give up directly! Li Yuanjia shouted decisively.

At this time, time is life, rather than persuasion, it is better to do it directly!

He suddenly understood that sentence, in this life, helplessness is often the main theme.
