Chapter 210: Special Salute!

The speed of the stuffy tanker is not fast, and solemnly thinks that this thing may only be a few tens of kilometers per hour.

Although the conditions are not comfortable, they are not uncomfortable either.

After all, it was a heavily trained soldier, and it was much more comfortable to stay in a stuffy tanker than in a makeshift tent in the field.

It's that peeing is a big problem.

Before getting on the bus, the leader of the brigade had already made it clear that due to the urgency of the task, there would be no stops along the way, and it would be driven until the point.

The journey is long, it is estimated that it will take 20 hours, and it is obviously not good to urinate in the carriage.

However, there are always more solutions than difficulties.

Soon, the soldiers invented an alternative solution - whoever wanted to pee had a comrade pull his belt behind his back, then unchained his trousers, pulled out the man's weapon and snorted outward.

He doesn't know the specific destination, and he doesn't need to know the specific destination.

Because it is the duty of a soldier to obey orders.

Don't ask what you shouldn't ask, don't know what you shouldn't know.

Even if this train is headed for the battlefield, no one will retreat.

Of course, everyone was about to go to northern Hubei Province to participate in a flood fight.

Everyone's hearts are more or less excited at this time, and no one knows what they have to face.

Twenty hours is a long time, and a short time.

Soon, after entering northern Hubei Province, the dark clouds in the sky were thicker than those seen at the sea training ground before, almost no part of the place was dry, it was raining everywhere the train passed, and several times before passing through the culvert, I saw that there were engineers busy, as if they were reinforcing the slope to prevent collapse.

The air, unconsciously, became tense.

At 4 a.m., at an unknown train station, the train finally stopped.

The iron chain across the door of the stuffy tanker was removed, and the squadron leader Zhou Huping held an electric horn and shouted below: "Get out of the car!" Get out! ”

Everyone put on their backpacks, put on life jackets, picked up shovels, and jumped out of the car.

The entire train station was full of soldiers in life jackets.

"Don't stop here, take it out of the station! Take the out-of-station assembly to the designated location! ”

Apparently, the radio room at the railway station had been requisitioned by the troops, and instructions were heard on the radio.

Zhuang Zheng quickly followed his comrades-in-arms, gathered and ran outside the station.

Outside the station, after standing in a waterlogged open space for about 30 minutes, a car drove in the rain, and the lead car had a white and red sign next to its license plate - flood fighting.

After receiving the order to board the vehicle, he solemnly climbed into a Jiefang-brand military vehicle, drove to the national highway in the dark, and once again headed for an unknown location.

The road was very muddy, and the police car with the traffic police in front of the convoy flashed red and blue police lights to open the way in front of the convoy.

Soon after leaving the station, there was water on the road, and the wheels were boiling the water, making a gurgling sound.

Solemnly lifted the tarpaulin and stuck his head out.

In the dark sight, it was pitch black all around, only the lights on the road were bright, and there were military convoys everywhere, and it was not known how many troops had been sent here.

Only occasionally will you see some local vehicles, but they are driving in the opposite direction and disappearing into the far side of the road.

After about two hours of staggering in the car, the convoy was slow and occasionally a little jammed because the road ahead was washed away by the water, and the makeshift appearance had to be carefully passed.

After more than ten hours of training, coupled with the exhaustion of the previous sea training, many people have fallen asleep on their backpacks, and in the dark, there are bursts of snoring.

I can't tell why, but I can't sleep.

Sleepy like a naughty child who refuses to go home, can't be coaxed back, squints for a while with his eyes closed, and is still energetic when he opens his eyes.

Finally, it was early in the morning, and the sky was bright.

Solemnly lifted the tarpaulin behind the rear of the car, wanting to see the situation outside.

When the scene outside the car came into a solemn sight, he was taken aback.

"Oh my God!"

He couldn't help but scream, and the scream woke up many people.

"What's wrong?"

"Look!"

Everyone crowded to the back of the carriage and looked around.

Every soldier was stunned by the sight in front of them.

Only then did I know that this flood fighting and rescue was completely different from the situation when I was a recruit in Tieba Company before when I helped N Town repair the reservoir access road!

It's a difference between heaven and earth, and compared to the situation here, the situation of the passage of the reservoir in N Town is almost like that of a child.

It was the most heart-wrenching scene he had ever seen.

Outside the car, on the plains, patches of yellow muddy water were everywhere, flooding farmland and crops, and the whole area seemed to be soaked in water.

Everywhere there were people covered in mud, in twos and threes, some carrying dirty furniture and sundries on bicycles, with their heads bowed, and their distracted eyes showed helplessness and sadness.

There seemed to be a lot of people in the distance, constantly stacking sandbags on the side of the road, and in addition to soldiers wearing military uniforms like themselves, some were ordinary people.

The torrential rain was like a whip, the rice paddies were flooded, the houses collapsed, the roads and bridges were washed away, and between the chaotic heaven and earth, only some rooftops, treetops and lonely crooked telephone poles were left behind......

The desolation of the sight made the mood become the same as the weather, and gradually became gloomy.

The rain was still falling wildly, and it didn't seem to stop.

The solemn heart hung in the air, rain was not a good thing at such a time.

That will bring more water.

I have seen some footage in the news of the squadron every day, and since June, the flood control work on both sides of the Yangtze River has not stopped.

However, when he was really there, he found that he could not describe this tragic situation in words.

Suddenly, there were a few children standing on the side of the road, who looked like students, but they were not carrying school bags.

At this time, the school has long been closed......

"Look! Another PLA uncle is here to help us! ”

One of the little girls pointed to their military vehicle and shouted to her companion: "So many uncles of the People's Liberation Army! ”

Then, the passing partner actually stood on the side of the road and gave a Young Pioneer salute to the military vehicle team.

All the soldiers in the car, their breathing suddenly became heavier.

Suddenly, the seventh Luo Xiaoming stood beside the car, silently raised his right hand, and gave a military salute.

Immediately afterwards, all the soldiers, including Yan Yan, raised their right hands.

Salute!

This is not a salute prescribed by any of the ordinances, and it is not even in accordance with the ordinances.

Zhuang Zhuang didn't know why Lao Qi saluted, but he knew why he saluted.

That little girl and her little friend may not be the first time they have seen the PLA.

They salute as a sign of trust.

"Uncle PLA is here......"

This simple sentence made the hearts of a whole group of soldiers known as iron-blooded men sour, and a feeling of being trusted and entrusted by others surged from the bottom of their hearts like spring water.

The convoy continued to drive forward, but the car behind blocked the view, and solemnly could not see the little girl and her little friend soon after.

Sitting back in the car, the relaxed atmosphere of the train had long since disappeared without a trace.

There was a heavy atmosphere in the air, and outside the car, the scene of the country of Wanli Ze still flashed outside the car like a movie slideshow.

For a long time, Lao Qi sat in the corner of the carriage, and said in a low and resolute voice: "Brothers! It's time for us to go for it! ”
