Chapter 903 Some people are human, some are not
At 7:30 in the morning, the rain gradually subsided.
Sirens blared across the sky above the city.
With a loud bang, the whole earth seemed to be shaking.
The rushing flood rushed towards many streets of the county town like a ferocious beast.
Fortunately, some major areas of the county town had been built with sandbags in advance to create curves and thick walls.
When the raging flood hit these walls, it was all directed in another direction and did not engulf every corner of the county.
As the flood discharge began, several economically developed regions and cities around the lake, which had various light and heavy industries, finally received great relief.
The flood was directed into the county town of xx in a targeted manner, and with its own strength, it greatly relieved the siege for many other areas.
But it was just a relief. For a short period of time, the drainage and sewage systems of the surrounding cities remained paralyzed.
Most underground garages and underground facilities have been flooded.
Fortunately, the road systems in these cities were not completely paralyzed.
As the congestion is gradually cleared, things will be restored as soon as possible and order will return to normal.
Near noon, the rain gradually stopped, and most of the farmland, orchards, first-floor shops and residences in xx County, including roadside cars, were submerged in floodwaters.
The entire county seemed to have sunk a lot, and its roots were all buried in the loess.
Looking down from the sky, the roads are almost invisible, and even the bridges seem to be vague.
The city seemed to have been paused, and no one was in sight.
Only the kayaks were still floating above.
At this time, Wang Yuansong was ordered to rescue and evacuate some civilians who did not have time to evacuate.
Of course, there are some stubborn ones who were unwilling to leave before, saying they would live and die with the house, but now they are begging to get on the boat.
Wang Yuansong's kayak had a motor installed at the back. Seeing this person carrying people, dogs, boxes and notebooks onto the boat, he immediately spoke out to stop them.
"This is an emergency rescue, there's limited space on the boat, and there are several families waiting for us ahead!"
"How can others get on the boat and sit with all your luggage?"
The lady holding the poodle gave Wang Yuansong a blank look and didn't care.
"If there's not enough room, can't you call another boat?"
"These are our family's valuables, so of course we have to take them with us."
"What if we leave and a thief sneaks back into our house and steals all our valuables? Right, honey?"
While speaking, the lady did not forget to tease the poodle in her arms. She did not look like the poodle that had suffered a disaster and was waiting for rescue. It was clearly like she was ordering a servant around.
During the previous evacuation, Wang Yuansong clearly remembered that this family refused to leave.
It’s just because their family built a three-story villa themselves, so there is no need to evacuate.
But in the end, because it was located in a low-lying area, the flood directly reached the second and half floors.
In the end, they had no choice but to climb to the roof of the third floor and kept shouting for help.
Seeing that the woman's son was still moving the suitcases onto the boat and the boat was getting deeper and deeper in the water, Wang Yuansong finally got angry.
He threw a suitcase back at me and said, "You don't understand what I'm saying, do you? No one else is allowed on board except humans. Put the dog down too!"
The woman was also angry: "What do you mean? Do you know what I do? Do you know who my uncle is? How dare you talk to me like that?"
There was also a squadron instructor on board who quickly tried to smooth things over: "Comrade, comrade, calm down, calm down. It's true that there's limited space on the boat. There are two elderly couples on the rooftop ahead waiting for us to pick them up."
"With all that stuff loaded, the boat will be too heavy. How will people get on board?"
The woman's son pushed the instructor hard and said, "Whether others go up or not is none of my business. Aren't you serving the people? Now I ask you to protect the people's property. What's wrong with that?"
"That's it!"
The lady rolled her eyes sarcastically.
Even the dog in her arms started barking at Wang Yuansong and the instructor who was trying to smooth things over.
Fuck him!
If it weren't for discipline, Wang Yuansong would have wanted to push these people into the water!
At this moment, a wave suddenly came from behind, causing the hull to twist and turn.
As a result, the instructor lost his balance and the boat capsized.
All the luggage inside sank to the bottom of the water, and the lady and her dog also gulped down a lot of water.
Wang Yuansong and his companions took great pains to pull the people out of the water, but in the end they were unable to save their luggage and belongings.
"Oh, I told you not to pretend so much, not to pretend so much, but you just wouldn't listen!"
"Look, the boat has capsized, and everything has sunk to the bottom of the water. What a fuss!"
The two of them sang the same tune and put all the blame on the lady's family.
After experiencing the experience of falling into the water, this group of people all became much more obedient.
Even if I am angry, I dare not express it.
I was afraid that there would be another wave and if I couldn't keep the boat steady, I would fall over again.
The water has already reached halfway up to the second floor. It must be several meters deep at least. If you can't swim, you will die if you go in.
Seeing that the group of arrogant people were all silent, Wang Yuansong winked at the instructor, who immediately started the boat and headed towards the old couple squatting on the roof not far away.
......
Rescue requires certain skills.
Although those who act unreasonably are a minority, we must deal with them when we encounter them.
Small boats shuttled back and forth on the road, some helping with rescue, some transporting supplies, and some providing medical support, each performing its own function.
These ships also provide more security and peace of mind to the people trapped in residential buildings without water, electricity and food.
At least they know that the country has not forgotten them and is always lending a helping hand.
Soon, Wang Yuansong escorted everyone on the boat to a safe area.
This was originally a mountain, but it was flattened due to economic development and turned into a large upward slope.
So, this is the highest point in the county, and a comprehensive home building materials plaza is built on the highest point.
There is a lot of space inside, enough to accommodate some ordinary people.
Wang Yuansong docked the boat and led the people into the south gate of the building materials plaza.
On the way, the family of the lady holding the dog kept muttering and even threatened to ask Wang Yuansong to compensate them for their financial losses.
It was said that the suitcase was filled with brand-name bags and clothes, as well as some expensive jewelry, which totaled hundreds of thousands of dollars.
Wang Yuansong simply ignored it as if it were a donkey's fart.
This is how society is. Some people are human beings, but a small group of people cannot be considered human beings.
Soldiers have the responsibility to protect the people, but if there are bad apples among the people, they have ways to filter them out.
Soon, Wang Yuansong led everyone into the resettlement area, where there were already quite a few people.
Wang Yuansong even saw a group of familiar figures. A group of soldiers shaped like "mud monkeys" were sitting on the ground eating boxed lunches. The man in the lead, covered in mud, was Qin Feng, Qin Zhengwei.
He was just about to step forward to say hello and thank Qin Feng and others for racing against time on the embankment to buy time for the evacuation work, thus ensuring the smooth completion of the flood discharge plan.
Suddenly, Wang Yuansong stopped because he saw three figures covered with white cloth against the wall next to Qin Feng and others.
He suddenly felt as if his heart was being squeezed by an invisible hand, and even his breathing became difficult.
Only then did he realize that the eyes of the group of soldiers sitting on the ground were all red.
They cried while putting food into their mouths.
But the more I chewed this food, the more bitter it became, and the harder it became to swallow...
