Chapter 43: Action on Rainy Night (1)

Sun Yuanchao quickly winked at me, and I ran over knowingly, took off my raincoat and put it on Ye Xiaoyan. The pouring rain immediately wet my whole body. I wiped the rain on my face and shouted loudly in the wind and rain:

"Stop messing around! Go back!"

Ye Xiaoyan's wet hair was dripping down, she was trembling in the heavy rain, but her eyes showed a stubborn look and she shouted loudly:

"No! I said I would eat, live and train with the soldiers. Now there are emergencies, so of course I will participate too!"

I said to myself: "You are going to discover the materials! You are still so proud!"

At this time, Sun Yuanchao came over and asked loudly on purpose:

"Line-ranked, what's going on?"

I looked at Ye Xiaoyan helplessly and said:

"Director Ye insisted on going with us. It rained so heavily and the mountain would slide at any time, which was too dangerous..."

Sun Yuanchao glanced at Ye Xiaoyan and said loudly:

"The situation is urgent, don't talk nonsense. The leader of the platoon will leave two soldiers and look at Officer Ye, let's set off!"

I shouted in the rain:

"yes!"

Then he turned around and shouted:

"Zhang Shaoshang! You and Song Qinghui stay with you to accompany Ye to work! It's windy and rainy outside, so don't go out!"

Zhang Shaoshang obviously wanted to participate in this operation. The soldiers knew that such an action would probably produce several more heroes. I glared at him and shouted:

"Stop talking nonsense! Execute the command!"

Zhang Shaoshang was a little unwilling to accept it, but he didn't dare to disobey the order, so he had to agree, and then walked out of the queue with Song Qinghui and blocked Ye Xiaoyan. I nodded and was about to turn around to take the team away, Ye Xiaoyan pushed Zhang Shaoshang away and shouted at me loudly:

"Lu Changfeng, what do you mean? Am I a soldier in your platoon? What right do you have to withhold me? OK! I now announce that my grassroots field trip has ended, and now I can go wherever I want! Don't worry!"

Saving people is like putting out a fire. Seeing that Ye Xiaoyan is still making trouble here, I felt anger surge in my heart. I looked at her coldly and said:

"I don't have time to talk nonsense to you! Wherever you fall in love with! Zhang Shaoshang, Song Qinghui! Join the list!"

I rejected the raincoat handed over by Zhang Shaoshang and turned around to join the list. Seeing this scene, Sun Yuanchao shook his head helplessly, whispered a few words to Wu Yanfeng, and then said loudly:

"Turn right! Run!"

Everyone fought against the simple tools and rushed out of the camp in the raging wind and rain. Ye Xiaoyan followed our team stubbornly. I looked back and saw two veterans gradually landing behind the team, running next to Ye Xiaoyan, I knew that this was something Sun Yuanchao was worried about her accident, so he specially arranged it. I don’t understand what Ye Xiaoyan was thinking. Most people were discouraged when they saw such a big storm, but she was going to suffer this crime! Women are really unreasonable!

In order to save time, we kept taking shortcuts. After a while, we entered the suburbs. The road became extremely muddy. Almost everyone had fallen and ran for only two or three kilometers. Everyone was like mud monkeys. I felt even more uncomfortable. The raincoat had been taken off to Ye Xiaoyan. The clothes all over my body were soaked in the rain within a minute. Now the mud was covered in the body, sticky and indescribable.

When I saw Ye Xiaoyan stumbled behind the queue, I couldn't help but admire her. Not to mention anything else, just a two or three kilometers of marching, most people couldn't hold on, let alone a delicate woman?

We completed the three or four kilometers of march in fifteen minutes. When we arrived in front of the collapsed house, the rescuers had not arrived yet. We were the first batch. Next to the ruins, there were only a few villagers digging in vain, and there were several relatives who seemed to be buried residents, who were crying sadly.

When they saw the People's Liberation Army coming, they all came to meet them as if they saw a savior. A middle-aged man in his forties held Sun Yuanchao's hand tightly and said:

"Comrades in the People's Liberation Army! You came too timely. I am the branch secretary of this village. There are three villagers here buried under the collapsed houses. Several of us are at a loss!"

Saving people is like putting out a fire. Sun Yuanchao didn't say nonsense, and said directly:

"Comrades! It's important to save people! Be careful when digging, so as not to hurt the people below! Start working!"

At the command of Sun Yuanchao, all the people in the company immediately picked up tools and rushed towards the ruins. Several soldiers carefully installed waterproof batteries and connected several high-power emergency lights. The place was as bright as day. I looked at it. The house here should have been built on the mountain, but the rain might have been too violent tonight. The mountain behind the house had landslides, and the whole house was buried. Now we can only vaguely see the roof, and the other places were covered with soil. But the heavy rain was still falling. I saw that there were still scattered stones falling down in the mountain behind, which means that a large-scale landslide may occur again here. We must rescue people before the landslides, otherwise the buried villagers would have no hope of survival, and most of the people in our company were likely to be buried.

Thinking of this, I was shocked and sweated. I shouted while shoveling soil with a shovel:

"Comrades, be careful! This mountain may collapse again!"

As soon as he finished speaking, a stone as big as a sea bowl rolled down quickly and smashed towards Liu Zhao who was working hard. He was approaching without realizing the danger, and was still digging hard. I shouted:

"Squad leader, please dodge it!"

While shouting, I rushed over. The distance between us was not short. According to normal circumstances, when I rushed there, Liu Zhao had already been hit by a stone when I rushed there. But I used Longteng true energy without realizing it. I rushed to Liu Zhao at a speed that ordinary people could not imagine. At this time, the big stone had reached Liu Zhao's head. If I didn't take effective measures, seeing that the posture could smash Liu Zhao's head, I had no time to think about it. I pushed Liu Zhao away and then quickly retreated. However, the stone was too close to us. After I pushed Liu Zhao away, it had reached the top of my head. Although I retreated very quickly, the stone was still hit on my lower abdomen.

The stone should have fallen from a very high place. Its kinetic energy is very high. Although I had been prepared for a long time and poured the dragon's true energy into my body, I still felt like I was hit hard by a huge hammer. I bent my waist reflexively and fell on the muddy ruins. I didn't say a word, so I quickly got lucky to relieve the pain and treat the trauma.

Liu Zhao, who was pushed to the ground by me, just turned around at this moment. When he saw this scene, he shouted heart-wrenchingly:

"Land platoon!"

Then he rushed over with his hands and feet and ground. He kept shaking me and asked loudly:

"Lu Pai! How are you?"

Then he turned around and shouted in a hoarse voice:

"Sanitation officer! Where did the sanitation officer die? Come here soon! Our platoon leader is injured!"

When I heard his crying voice, I couldn't help but feel moved: This guy is not so cold and hard on the surface!

I stood up slowly and shouted:

"Squad leader, why are you calling out? I'm fine!"

Liu Zhao suddenly turned around and saw me standing there, he shouted in surprise:

"Lu Pai, you're fine! I'm scared to death!"

Suddenly he muttered to himself in confusion, and said while gestured with his hands:

"Impossible! I saw such a big stone hitting your belly with my own eyes! Lu Pai! I'd better ask the sanitary to come and show you!"

After saying that, he turned around and called for someone. My stomach still hurts slightly, but I don’t want to be shocked. Moreover, I believe that no matter how powerful the health care staff in the company is, it is impossible for me to get better immediately. I might as well rely on my Longteng true energy to make it easier. I quickly called Liu Zhao and said:

"Stop! Squad leader, come back for me! Why do you ask people to do such a small matter? I didn't see everyone busy! Work quickly, if you bury one more minute, you will have a little more danger of death!"

After saying that, I held back the pain and pretended to be nothing. Liu Zhao looked at me hesitantly for a while. I guess he didn't dare to disobey my words, so he picked up a shovel and started shoveling soil.

I held back the pain in my lower abdomen, shoveled a shovel of soil, and threw it out with all my strength. When I looked up, I saw Ye Xiaoyan looking at me not far away. Her eyes seemed to show a kind of fanaticism, a bit like a wolf that had been hungry for a long time finally caught a rabbit. I looked at her in confusion and shouted:

"Director Ye! If you step back a little, it's too dangerous here!"

Ye Xiaoyan stood stubbornly and shouted with a smile:

"I can't. If I were in the distance just now, I wouldn't have seen this wonderful scene of the platoon leader sacrificing his life to save the warriors!"

I shook my head with laughter and cry, ignored this crazy woman, lowered my head and shoveled up a shovel of soil...

After ten minutes of quick work, the soil above the ruins was cleaned up, revealing the collapsed houses. The space inside the houses were also filled with soil, but the missing persons were still not found. Seeing the scene in front of him, everyone knew that these three villagers were in danger. Stones of different sizes fell down from time to time on the mountain, and it was obvious that the landslide was about to occur again.

Sun Yuanchao gritted his teeth and shouted:

"Comrades, don't give up! Let's continue looking!"

After saying that, he led the way to move the broken beam. When the soldiers saw that the company commander had done it themselves, they also raised their sleeves and joined the rescue ranks.

I was about to rush forward, someone from behind gently pulled my clothes. When I turned around, it was Ye Xiaoyan. There was a slight smell of concern in her eyes. It was raining heavily. She asked loudly:

"Platform Commander Lu, I see you were hit by a stone just now. How do you feel now? It doesn't matter?"

Although I don’t have a good impression of her, I can’t be ungrateful, so I looked at her gratefully and said:

"No big problem! Thank you! Officer Ye! Time is tight, I'll go and save people first!"

After saying that, I rushed to the ruins again.

The next work was even more difficult. The soil mixed with stones kept sliding down. We wore gloves and nervously searched for traces of survivors in the ruins. The roof was slowly moved away, and there was still a tight mud below. In fact, the chances of the villagers' survival were very slim. It was more than half an hour before the incident happened. No one could survive in such an environment for half an hour, but we still did not give up searching. Sun Yuanchao ordered the village party secretary to find several big baskets, and everyone quickly cleared the messy stones and soil in the house.

Some people didn't carry tools and couldn't wait for the villagers to pick them up, so they just used their hands to scatter. Time passed by minute by minute, and the rescue operation still did not make any progress. At this time, even the village party secretary gave up, and he said to Sun Yuanchao:

"Comrades in the People's Liberation Army, I don't think there is any hope. They can't survive even if they look at it. Look at it, it may fall down here. Otherwise, the troops will go back first! We will dig ourselves when the sky clears up..."

Sun Yuanchao wiped the water from his face with his hands, glared at him and shouted:

"How can that be done! It's not certain that people are dead now. As long as there is a glimmer of hope, we will not give up!"

After saying that, he turned to everyone and shouted:

"Comrades, work harder, and when you go back, there will be hot noodles waiting for everyone!"

At this time, a noise came from the area in which we were responsible. I hurriedly ran over and saw that the soldiers of the second squad finally found someone. I looked over and saw that there was a dirt covered with soil and one hand exposed outside the soil layer. I shouted excitedly:

"Comrades! Dig quickly! Be careful not to hurt people!"

After saying that, I threw the shovel and digged the soil with my hands near the hand to prevent the shovel from hurting the villagers. I knelt on the ground, regardless of the pouring rain, and quickly digged it with my hands. The soil here was relatively loose. In addition, I used a certain amount of Longteng true energy when I tried hard, so the speed was very fast. However, some sharp stones mixed in the soil quickly worn out the thick gauze gloves, and a little blood was flowing out of my hands. However, due to my joining, our progress accelerated a lot and we quickly dug out the entire arm. Finally, the head of the villagers in distress was exposed in the air. The villagers' face was covered with mud and their eyes were closed. I reached out to explore his breath and had no breathing anymore. We quickly dug out his whole person from the soil.
