That night, the reconnaissance company and the teaching brigade gathered together and added a pork stir-fried pumpkin for dinner. Due to the arrival of Deputy Chief of Staff Cui Gaoyi, the two old enemies gathered together and squeezed into the temporary awning built by the teaching brigade for dinner.

During those days, heavy rain kept falling and the sky never cleared again.

Zhuang Yan still follows the veterans to the beach to learn swim and mudflat tactical subjects, etc. Every day. Unlike on the land, even the tactical movements have to be reviewed again by the sea to get used to the special terrain here.

The navy's ship brigade sent a lot of landing crafts and cooperated with the entire division to conduct subject drills for landing operations.

The first time Zhuang Yan saw so many tanks in his life, and it was also the first time he was riding a landing craft.

Of course, like any previous military subject, the freshness and stimulation at the beginning were quickly worn out under repeated and repeated high-intensity training, replaced by endless fatigue.

Zhuang Yan's skin has been taken off twice, but fortunately, her grades in swimming subjects have improved greatly.

The first five-kilometer armed swimming was swam solemnly for four hours but it was not docked. In the end, I was cramped and sent to the assault boat.

After today's training, he can travel the entire journey in about three and a half hours.

Swimming is a subject with high skills. As long as you have a basic physical fitness, what is left is how to learn the most labor-saving and fastest swimming posture, how to learn to avoid various waves and undercurrents in the sea, and know when to slow down, instead of swimming forward desperately, resulting in exhaustion.

This summer in early August, Zhuang Yan wrote a letter to her home at the training ground, briefly saying that she had learned to swim now, and then at the end of the letter, she still wrote "Mom and Dad, I love you."

However, no one expected that while Zhuang Yan and his troops were conducting sea training on the southern seashore, a disaster was quietly approaching the ancient country.

That night, the wind and rain remained the same.

In the temporary tent of the brigade headquarters, three squadron leaders, including Wen Zhixing, Zhou Huping, Liu Jianwei, and Li Bin, were sitting on the stool beside him, drinking tea with a hot tea jar.

"This ghost weather makes it rain every day, it's so annoying!" said Liu Jianwei.

Zhou Huping held a local newspaper and looked over and over again, thinking: "To be honest, the newspapers said that there were floods everywhere these days. A few days ago, Jiujiang broke down..."

Wen Zhixing held the teacup, took a sip, and said, "Instructor Wang called me the day before yesterday. He said that the flood fighting teams organized by local troops and cadres and masses are everywhere in his hometown, and even he volunteered to help."

Wang Chenglin's hometown is from northern Hubei Province. He will be transferred to a job at the end of the year, so he went back to visit his home first. It is said that his wife asked him to go back to contact his workplace, so he did not participate in the sea training.

"I heard that the fourth peak is coming soon, this time is even more violent than the previous three times, 63,200 cubic meters/second..." Zhou Huping moved his eyes from the newspaper and looked at Wen Zhixing: "I remember that the hometown of Instructor Wang seems to be on the edge of the Yangtze River. I don't know if he is fine."

Wen Zhixing still stared at the front, holding a teapot in his hand and slowly drank tea, saying slowly: "It's okay, Lao Wang..."

Before he finished speaking, the phone on the table suddenly rang.

Wen Zhixing glanced at the people present, and everyone had an ominous premonition in their hearts.

Finally, Wen Zhixing walked over and grabbed the microphone.

"Hey, this is the teaching brigade..."

That night.

When Zhuang Yan and his comrades were listening to the drizzle of rain in the tent, talking about their ideals in life, and forcing others to take out photos of their partners to enjoy together, a rapid whistle sounded throughout the temporary camp.

"An emergency gathering!"

"Is it possible that the strong wind and rain will pull us out to sea for training?"

"Just do it. I haven't tried doing sea training overnight yet. It's so satisfying!"

...

Everyone began to quickly put on their camouflage uniforms, put on their hats and rushed out of the tent to gather.

When we got outside, the cold rain quickly poured people through.

Zhuang Yan suddenly discovered that it was not the teaching brigade that was blowing the emergency assembly whistle, but the entire huge sea training ground and all nearby units were blowing.

Something big happened!?

Zhuang Yan realized that the entire division's direct team was urgently combining.

This is certainly not a trivial matter.

"From now on, immediately dismantle the barracks and daily necessities, hand over all combat supplies such as weapons, tactical vests and gas masks to the brigade headquarters for safekeeping, take out all the engineer shovels, and each squad, each person ensures that there is one. After each squadron has dismantled the temporary tent, packed it and put it in place, and there will be people from the logistics forces coming to collect it and hand it over to them for processing."

Standing in front of all the students in the brigade, Wen Zhixing's camouflage hat was hung with a rain curtain like an eaves, and his hands kept lit in the air, emphasizing every word he said.

"Bring your raincoats, rain cloth and other essentials, make sure you can't miss them, and then stand by on standby. After four hours, a car will come to pick you up. Each squadron will strengthen the connection with the brigade headquarters and board the bus according to the established plan!"

It was just a brief speech, but Zhuangyan had already heard the tense atmosphere.

Without weapons, this is definitely not a military mission.

Recently, TV news always says that all parts of the country have encountered floods that have not been encountered in a century, and rescue and disaster relief are everywhere.

Could it be because of this?

"Big Mouth, do you guess we are going to fight the flood this time?"

After disbanding, he returned to his campsite and asked Wang Dazui while stuffing his quilt, raincoat, etc. into his backpack.

Wang Dazui shook his head and said, "I don't know, but I think it's 80%."

Xu Xingguo said: "I think it is definitely the case. People from my hometown have sent letters. Although we are preyed on the Yangtze River, there are relatives on the side of Jiujiang. It is said that the atmosphere is very tense, and the whole city has mobilized to fight against the flood."

Soon, the temporary barracks and tents of the entire brigade were all dismantled.

Zhuang Yan and the others were taken to a clearing on the roadside nearby, sitting on a backpack in a raincoat, waiting for the car.

At this moment, there was a tense atmosphere on the road, with green military vehicles passing by everywhere, and I don’t know where to go.

Soon, the reconnaissance battalion was also taken to the open space.

The dark soldiers were waiting silently in the rain.

No one was going until he was going, and some soldiers could guess the general reason.

Flood fighting and rescue?

Zhuangyan had no idea about these four words before.

He didn't even know what he could do after he went there.

The cadres and district captains of the squadron were the busiest. They were constantly called to attend small meetings, and then arranged vehicle numbers and ride orders, etc.

In less than an hour, a long dragon appeared on the road and slowly stopped on the shoulder of the roadside.

"Everyone should obey the command and wait for your squad leader to get on the car! Don't worry, don't get on the wrong car!"

The squadron leader Zhou Huping, holding an electric horn in his hand, walked from the front of the convoy to the end of the convoy, shouting all the way.

Soon, starting from the first squadron, one district team and one truck were all boarded soon.

The car drove slowly along the road. When passing through the town, solemnly discovered that the entire division had already started moving, and soldiers gathered and waited for boarding everywhere. There were also cadres running around. Occasionally, a 212 jeep passed by the convoy quickly and disappeared into the night.

Many residents of the town stretched their heads out of their private buildings and kept looking to the side, not understanding why these soldiers from the army left in the middle of the night.
