Chapter 503 Villagers Seeking Help
But just as the villagers were working together to rescue people, they suddenly heard a loud bang from the back mountain.
Everyone turned around and their expressions changed.
"Oh no, the mountain collapsed."
"It's mud and rocks. Hurry, go and inform the people living at the foot of the mountain and tell them to run."
"Captain, it's too late."
In the middle of the night, except for those who came out to rescue people, everyone else was sleeping, especially the elderly and children, who were all at home.
Now that the mudslide came, they couldn't escape even if they wanted to.
Seeing that the mudslide had reached the village and was about to cover the houses at the foot of the mountain, those who lived at the foot of the mountain were furious.
They ran towards the foot of the mountain, shouting loudly: "No! No!"
But how could the mudslides pay attention to the villagers' shouting? They followed the predetermined track and rushed towards the village.
Wherever it passed, both houses and farmland were covered.
The villagers watched the mudslide approaching little by little, and they forgot to move and react.
"What are you still standing there for? Run!" The captain looked at the stunned villagers and shouted loudly.
Hearing the captain's shout, everyone suddenly woke up as if from a dream and ran towards the mountainous area.
As for the people he had saved halfway before, he could no longer care about them. After all, nothing was more important than his own life.
They also want to save people, but they don't want to risk their own lives.
Fortunately, we have rescued several families just now, and as for those who have not been rescued, there is nothing we can do.
The mudslide moved very fast. In a blink of an eye, it had passed through most of the village, and many houses were buried by the mudslide.
The team leader led everyone to stand on a high place and kept praying that the mudslide would stop and not move forward.
I don’t know if the mudslide heard everyone’s prayers, but it finally stopped when it was about to reach the village’s threshing ground.
Seeing the mudslide stop, everyone couldn't help but breathe a sigh of relief. Most of the village had been submerged by the mudslide. If it continued, the whole village would be destroyed.
"Captain, what should we do now?"
"Ask your superiors for help."
Now they have limited manpower and have no other choice but to ask for help.
"Okay, I'll make the call." The accountant said as he walked towards the village office.
He only walked a few steps and then stopped again because he remembered that there was a power outage and he couldn't make the call.
Since they couldn't make a phone call, they could only ask people to leave the village for help. So the captain organized several villagers to leave the village and split into two groups, one to the nearby troops and the other to the commune for help.
The villagers braved the rain and came to the army for help with difficulty.
After receiving the villagers' request, the guard on duty immediately reported to his superiors.
The situation was urgent, so the guard made calls one by one, and finally called Commander Qi's home.
Commander Qi, who had just finished a meeting and had not slept for much time, had to get up when he heard the phone ringing.
When he learned that it was nearby villagers who were asking for help, he immediately asked his signalman to find a few regiment commanders.
When Si Nanzhao and others came to the division commander's house again, after learning that they were going to rescue their fellow villagers, several regiment commanders volunteered.
After thinking for a while, Commander Qi said to Si Nanzhao, "Captain Si, please take the people over there."
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, Si Nanzhao first went back home to tell Yun Bei, and then went to the homes of Chen Cheng and other battalion commanders and called them up.
Si Nanzhao planned to bring the entire group over so that they could rescue the villagers better and faster.
Since there was a mission, the battalion commanders did not delay and told their families and immediately returned to the army with Si Nanzhao. Then they called up the soldiers in their battalion and headed to a nearby village overnight to rescue people.
When the captain saw the People's Liberation Army coming, he immediately stepped forward and explained the situation to everyone.
Si Nanzhao and his brothers were heartbroken when they saw half of the village buried in mud and stone. He gathered his brothers together, gave them a few instructions, and then asked everyone to start rescuing people.
At this time, Chen Cheng came to Si Nanzhao and said to him: "Captain, many villagers are injured, what should we do?"
"I'll ask Xiao Liu to go over and call your sister-in-law over."
Xiao Liu was Si Nanzhao's orderly. After receiving the order, he immediately rushed to the family compound.
She hasn't slept since Si Nanzhao told Yun Bei that a nearby village was buried by a mudslide.
She went straight into the space and began to prepare some life-saving medicines.
When Xiao Liu went back to look for someone, Yunbei was already carrying a medicine box and talking to Fu Guang.
She wanted to go save someone, but she was not sure about Fu Guang, so she wanted to give him some instructions.
"Sister, don't worry. I will stay at home and not go anywhere." Fu Guang sensibly asked Yun Bei to go and save people. If he was not young, he would have wanted to go with them.
"Okay, if you're hungry, come to my room. There's food inside." Yun Bei didn't know how long he would be gone, so he took out a lot of food from the space.
If Fu Guang is hungry, he can fill his stomach without having to go to the cafeteria.
To be honest, the water hasn't receded yet, and Yunbei is very worried about Fu Guang going to the cafeteria alone.
"understood."
After Yunbei had finished instructing Fuguang, she heard a knock on the door, so she went to open it with her medicine box on her back.
When she saw that it was Xiao Liu who came, she immediately asked, "Xiao Liu, did the head of the group ask you to come?"
"Yes, sister-in-law. The commander asked me to pick you up. Many villagers in the village over there are injured and need medical treatment."
"Let's go." Yunbei closed the gate and went to the nearby village with Xiao Liu.
When she arrived, Yunbei realized that the mudslide had occurred in the village where she often went to buy vegetables.
Under Si Nanzhao's organization, the injured were gathered together. Si Nanzhao asked his men to set up tents on the village's drying ground and put the injured in the tents.
Xiao Liu brought Yunbei to the tent and prepared to leave.
Yun Bei saw that there were quite a few injured people, and immediately said to him: "Xiao Liu, tell your team leader to send a few people to help me."
"Okay, sister-in-law."
Xiao Liu found Si Nanzhao and told him Yun Bei's request.
Si Nanzhao immediately called a few soldiers and took them to the drying yard. Seeing that Yunbei was already busy treating the wounds of his fellow villagers, Si Nanzhao stepped forward and said, "Wife, if there are not enough people, just tell me."
"Okay, go ahead and do your work. Be safe."
"it is good!"
Si Nanzhao nodded and went back to the scene.
The rain was lighter now, and they had to rescue the buried person as soon as possible, otherwise, if time went on for too long, the buried person would definitely not be able to hold on.
Si Nanzhao then continued to rescue people, and Yunbei also continued to rescue people.
As more and more villagers were injured, Yunbei again asked for more help.
