Chapter 129 Going to the Front to Fight the Flood
Afterwards, Chen Fan and his group took a rubber boat.
Shuttle among different districts.
The water in some residential buildings has spread to the second floor, and those residents on the first and second floors had to move to the stairwell to sleep.
But diet has become their big problem.
But Xia Guo's folk custom is that when one party is in trouble, all parties support it.
If there are people who hoard goods at home, they will prepare meals and ask them to eat, and some even ask them to live in their own homes.
As for Chen Fan and the others, they delivered supplies to different units.
There were also some sick old people and children, Chen Fan and the others also transferred them to the hospital.
So busy until three o'clock in the morning the next day.
The fire brigade received another call, saying that they needed to build a flood protection enclosure at the dam where the embankment broke.
That would require a lot of manpower!
But the top priority is, where can I find so many people?
Obviously people in residential areas also need care.
There are more monks than meat, and the current rescue soldiers are like those meat waiting to be divided.
Chen Fan said to the other party: "Leave this kind of thing to us."
The person in charge saw Chen Fan's expression at the scene of the disaster relief, and felt extremely ashamed that he had questioned Chen Fan in the first place.
He was even embarrassed to look into Chen Fan's eyes. He could only stare at Chen Fan's scarred hands and said: "I can't let you carry out such dangerous tasks anymore. You have done enough."
However, Chen Fan said: "Now is the time for employing people. If you continue to look forward and backward like this, you may not know how many people will die because of this flood."
Chen Fan looked at the other party, his eyes full of urgency and stubbornness.
"Trust us! We can definitely solve it!"
The other party sighed: "I really don't know how to thank you for your hard work."
Chen Fan did not be polite to the other party and took the team members to the destination in a bus.
Along the way, everyone found an opportunity to catch up on sleep.
No matter how bumpy the road conditions were, it didn't affect them at all.
This kind of exhaustion is completely different from the exhaustion they experienced during training.
The current tiredness is heavy, like pressing down on thousands of lives.
As soon as Chen Fan and the others got out of the car, they were stunned by the sight in front of them.
This is the battlefield!
A battlefield without gunpowder, but full of cruelty!
"Another sandbag was washed away in the southeast corner. Please remember to place the sandbags firmly."
"There is another gap at the No. 3 position on the west side, find someone to fill it up!"
"Is there any location at No. 4 on the east side?"
The scene was a mess.
Carloads of sand were unloaded aside, some soldiers frantically filled the bags, while others were responsible for sealing them.
"Hurry up! It's not enough now!"
Everyone felt like the soles of their feet were on fire, and no one dared to stop.
Chen Fan clapped his hands: "Wang Yanbing, you bring 6 people to fill the sandbags. Remember, don't fill the sandbags completely, only three-quarters of them are fine. The seal must be tightly sealed, and the bag must not be loose. , we can’t do useless work.”
Chen Fan continued to look at the other group of people: "You block the dam with me! Everyone, cheer up!"
Everyone shouted in unison: "Understood."
Chen Fan clapped his palms: "Move, move!"
All of a sudden, everyone joined the battlefield.
While others carry one bag at a time, they carry two or even three.
Everyone seemed to be desperate, and rushed forward one by one.
"Here, this location is already leaking and needs to be repaired immediately."
The sandbags in Chen Fan's hands never stopped. They were either picking up sandbags or carrying sandbags.
As special forces, Chen Fan and his team were more than twice as fast as the others.
Even Wang Yanbing and the others loaded sand faster than others.
Just enough to meet the needs of Chen Fan and others.
But the heavy rain continued.
At this time, hailstones fell even more, and the hailstones the size of beans crackled down.
Chen Fan speculated that according to the current trend, the heavy rain would last at least three more days.
Three days!
It can make the crops fail, and it can also slow down the economy of the entire city.
But they had no other choice but to rush forward against the sandbags again and again.
I don't know who sang the line "We are soldiers"
This sentence is like giving them a shot in the arm in such an environment.
Use your identity as your belief, as your own belief, and support yourself to persevere.
Immediately afterwards, thousands of songs gathered into a vast ocean.
Everyone spontaneously joined in the chorus, and Chen Fan sang while carrying the sandbag. He even felt that he had inexhaustible strength all over his body.
Many reporters recorded this scene, and it was the live broadcast of that night.
Even the host choked up: "This is the country we live in, and this is the group of soldiers who have been silently protecting us behind the scenes. Maybe we didn't even know their names in the end, but it's just like the background in this photo. There will always be someone who will use their body to cast a copper wall and an iron wall to protect us!"
Coincidentally, the photo they chose happened to be the photo left by Chen Fan and the others at the earthquake site.
This news was also seen in the earthquake-stricken areas.
Those who had just escaped from the earthquake were also praying for the flooded city.
"Hopefully they'll make it through."
"As long as there are soldiers, we are not afraid of anything."
"Yes, soldiers are our strength, etc., do you think this person looks familiar?"
The video screen is far away from the scene, and they can't see who the specific people are, they can only see blurred outlines.
But there is an outline, even if they become pixel people, they can remember it!
"Isn't this Chen Fan?"
Later, they found more familiar people in this video.
"This is Wang Yanbing."
"I saw Li Erniu and He Chenguang."
"Is that Gao Yuan who is limping and still filling sand?"
The red blood cell team that rescued them gathered here again.
They couldn't believe that red blood cells had inexhaustible energy.
But when they realized this, their noses were sour.
"They are real heroes! They don't see themselves at all, they care about the disaster victims!"
Everyone prayed silently in their hearts: "I hope that these heroes who are dedicated to the victims of the disaster will be safe and healthy."
This is the most simple feeling, the most sincere blessing!
However, Chen Fan and the others fought the battle against the flood for a full eighteen hours.
Finally, eighteen hours later, they received good news: "The water level in the city has dropped! Most of the water on the road has receded."
Their work also came to an end, and everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they saw that the surrounding sandbags were one meter higher than the current water level.
"It's finally over now, no matter how high the water is, it can't be higher than it is now."
