Chapter 221 Too tired
The soldiers of the Third Squadron got out of the car and found that their camp had changed its location.
Because a few days ago, the teaching brigade temporarily stationed on the campus of a middle school, but a few days later, the third squadron returned here and the teaching brigade's position was moved.
This move was moved to a hillside less than 500 meters away from the embankment where the 1st Division was strictly guarded.
After unloading the luggage, everyone planned to take a shower. Because time was in a hurry when I went to Paizhou, I didn't expect to stay there for four days, so no one in the entire squadron brought his luggage.
During the four days in Paizhou, I almost had less than five hours of sleep every day. When I woke up, I went to search and rescue, and when I came back, I fell asleep. I didn’t have time to take a shower.
Zhuangyan felt that the clothes on her body now had a smell of salty fish, and the sour smell was simply indescribable.
The most uncomfortable thing is to count the crotch, which is itchy and smelly. If you urinate and open your crotch, you will even dislike yourself.
The bathing place is next to a well beside the nearby common people's fields, surrounded by blue and white plastic cloth, and the natural bathing room is in the middle.
Of course, there is nothing to dislike about this kind of condition. After all, when it comes to recruits, it is not much better to take a bath in the open-air bathhouse of the recruits company in the Third Battalion.
After taking a shower and changing into clean training uniforms, Zhuangyan felt that she had finally come back to life.
Since yesterday, the rain seems to have stopped. Although the sky is still gloomy, it is better than rain.
The big guy sat next to a pile of rocks beside the tent chatting, waiting for a new task to arrive.
Yang Songlin walked to Zhuang Yan and sat down, exhaled a long sigh and asked, "Zhuang Yan, is there any cigarette?"
"You master asked, can I say, can I say?" Zhuang Yan took out a pack of cigarette from his pocket, tore open the seal, smoked one and handed it to Yang Songlin, and asked again: "I said, aren't you not smoking?"
Yang Songlin lit a cigarette, took a sip and said, "I used to smoke, but later because of my martial arts practice, my father didn't let me smoke, so I quit. It's been several years."
As he said that, he took a deep breath and coughed slightly.
"Be careful." Zhuang Yan said, "Why are you getting started again now?"
Yang Songlin said: "I don't know, I just want to smoke, maybe I'm tired."
Smoothing smoke silently, remembering the four days of sleepless pursuit of rescue, the entire Third Squadron, let alone soldiers, even the squadron cadres were all disabled.
"Songlin, do you still remember how many people you saved?"
Yang Songlin shook his head: "I don't remember, who still remembers? Do you remember?"
Zhuang Yan also shook her head: "I don't remember it either, so how can I think so much..."
Yang Songlin sighed: "Yes, there is no time to think about these things, solemnity, I just thought about when this damn flood will pass earlier..."
Zhuang Yan nodded and said, "Yes, so many people have been sacrificed and so many ordinary people have been flooded. How could there be such a broken thing in this world? "
Yang Songlin said: "We practitioners of martial arts and qi emphasize natural skills. From the perspective of traditional martial arts, any martial arts has both yin and yang. If the balance is broken during the practice, then they will become possessed by the devil."
Solemn and confused for a while, he couldn't help but interrupt him and said, "Don't talk nonsense, I said Songlin, can you say something I can understand?"
Yang Songlin said: "Do you know how the flood was triggered?"
Zhuang Yan remembered the knowledge in the geography class, so he said: "The damage to the natural environment, soil erosion, and severe deforestation..."
"Yes, this is the punishment for angering nature." Yang Songlin said: "Including building fields around lakes, affecting flood storage capacity; encroaching on rivers, resulting in poor flow, etc. Now it is said that a market economy is needed, and everyone has raised the construction of houses around lakes, which further aggravated the reduction of lake area. When heavy rainstorms form flood peaks, it will cause heavy losses..."
Zhuang Yan was stunned when he heard this. He didn't expect that Yang Songlin, a martial arts practitioner, would have such insights towards nature.
It really fits the saying that people should not behave like appearance.
The two were chatting when they suddenly saw slogans coming from the door of the temporary camp.
Then, the officers and soldiers from the first and second squadrons lined up and walked in with slogans.
The scholar should treat each other with admiration for three days after separation.
Usually, everyone was training in the same brigade and they even had a familiar face, but this time, Zhuang Yan couldn't recognize anyone.
The soldiers of the 1st and 2nd Squadron were just fished out of the mud. They were wearing life jackets and could no longer see the original color. The camouflage uniforms and liberation shoes were wrapped in a thick layer of mud, and the face...
Is that the face of a normal person?
It was even dirtyer than the big black face of the harlequin singing on the stage, leaving only two tired eyes exposed...
The captain of the first squadron simply said two, and the team quickly disbanded.
"Liu Jianli!"
Zhuang Yan finally recognized someone he knew.
Liu Jianli from the third squad of the first squadron, they had met before in that rescue operation to survive in the wild.
"Sovereign..." Liu Jianli threw the shovel tiredly, regardless of how dirty the ground was, and sat down on the ground.
Anyway, it won't be dirtier than your own clothes.
"You guys just got off from the dam?"
"Yes, it's been two consecutive days." Liu Jianli said: "Is there any water? I've drunk all my water."
Zhuangyan quickly handed the kettle hanging on her body to Liu Jianli.
Liu Jianli unscrewed the lid and tilted his head and kept drinking.
"Please take it easy and drink it slowly, but no one is snatching you!" Zhuang Yan was surprised to see Liu Jianli's appearance.
He could also guess that the rescue would be very tiring, but he didn't expect that he would be so tiring.
"Comfortable-" Liu Jianli put down the kettle and burped for a long time. Suddenly, the water in his stomach choked and sprayed out of his nostrils!
"Ahemhem—"
He coughed from a distance.
Zhuangyan hurried up and massaged his back.
"Fuck, you are a thirsty ghost reincarnated!?" He couldn't help asking: "Do you have no water to drink when you go to rescue?"
Liu Jianli stopped coughing, tilted his head and looked at Zhuang Yan, just like looking at aliens, and said, "These few days, your third squadron has been lucky. We have followed the guys from the engineering battalion to carry out rescue. We are all crazy. Now all the people in our division have been spread out on the Jingjiang embankment. We must be responsible for strengthening the embankment that has been raised by more than 100 kilometers, more than 100 kilometers... Commander Tao of the military region has issued a dead order to keep the guard. We haven't closed our eyes for two consecutive days. Water? Yes, but we don't have time to get it..."
Zhuang Yan remembered the tragic situation he saw in Paizhou, looked gloomy and said, "If possible, I would rather do it here like you... Do you think going to Paizhou would be better than here?"
Liu Jianli didn't answer, and the solemn answer was actually a thunderous snoring sound.
In these few seconds, Liu Jianli was able to fall asleep!
Zhuangyan looked at Liu Jianli leaning against the pile of stones, as if she woke him up, but she couldn't bear it.
How tired this is to be like this...
But sleeping here is absolutely not good, so Zhuangyan can only awaken Liu Jianli.
"Are you up, hurry up and change your clothes, go back to bed to sleep, sleep here will make you feel rheumatoid!"
Liu Jianli was suddenly promoted and looked around in a daze. The soul seemed to be out of his body and not coming back yet.
"Well... Damn, I actually fell asleep..."
Zhuang Yan quickly stuffed half of the cigarette into his mouth and said, "Bit the cigarette, take a few puffs, hurry up and go to take a shower and go to bed!"
After Liu Jianli left, Zhuangyan looked at Yang Songlin beside him and said, "It seems that we have a long fierce battle to fight next."
Yang Songlin said: "I heard from someone that it is going to blow up the dike and dig the flood."
"Blast the dam?" Zhuang Yan was startled, "Who did you hear?"
"There are talking everywhere. On the way back from a shower just now, I heard a few ordinary people crying on the side of the road. I paid attention and seemed to say that they would be diversion of floods these days, and they were unwilling to leave..."
"Flood Diversion?" Zhuang Yan did not have a clear concept of flood diversion, so he asked: "What is flood diversion?"
Yang Songlin, who has been in southern Hunan since childhood, also lived by the river, so he is much more solemn and clear about the flood diversion ratio.
"It is to blow up the embankment, let the water flow into the designated area, lower the water level, and reduce the pressure on the embankment on both sides of the Yangtze River. This will protect some important areas and avoid greater losses. Flood diversion is the last step. Before the most dangerous time, who will divide the flood..."
This is the first time that Zhuangyan, who grew up on the beach, heard the explanation of the word "flood diversion".
According to Yang Songlin, wouldn’t that be a big place to flood?
He remembered Paizhou again.
The tragic situation in Paizhou is still vivid in my mind.
He definitely doesn't want to see the second time.
While thinking about it, I suddenly heard a whistle.
