Chapter 534: I Swear to Death and Use My Body as a Human Wall

The commander-in-chief interrupted Gao Shiwei's words and said in a cold voice, "The dredging of the downstream cities is very important, but there is no delay here! There are not enough people in the armed police and firefighters. If the flood cannot be stopped before the city is dredged, not only will this county be flooded, but the latter will be flooded. Several cities will also suffer from pond fish!"

"Think about it, how many people are affected and how many innocent lives are lost in this way? How much property will the country lose? The people's hard work and hard work will be wasted all their lives. Can you afford this responsibility?!"

Gao Shiwei had a serious face and solemnly roared: "Please rest assured, Chief, I promise to transfer the troops before this afternoon. If I can't do it, I will jump into the flood to block the hole!"

The commander-in-chief stared at him sternly, and said coldly, "Before this afternoon at the latest, people must be in place, otherwise, I can only order to bring the whole city together! Once the flood comes, fill my old bones first. into the water."

"Yes!" Gao Shiwei shouted: "Guaranteed to complete the task!"

The commander-in-chief waved him back and continued to inspect the dam.

Gao Shiwei called an orderly, took the satellite phone, and dialed directly.

"Lan Zhiguang, life is at stake, what the hell are you doing? Hurry up and report, where are you?"

He yelled into the phone.

Lan Zhiguang reported loudly: "Reporting to the chief, we encountered some trouble. The road we came here was blocked by the collapse of the mountain torrent. We are trying to clear the road with the soldiers of the Red Arrow Brigade. It may take a while..."

Before he could finish speaking, he was interrupted by Gao Shiwei's cold drink.

"Don't tell me this nonsense, before this afternoon, no matter what method you use, you must come to me! If you don't arrive, I will bring the military headquarters to battle in person, and the commander-in-chief will also mobilize the people, this You can't afford the responsibility, and neither can I!"

Lan Zhiguang was taken aback: "The commander-in-chief wants to bring the people into battle in person? Chief, are you kidding me?"

Gao Shiwei was so angry that he almost threw the phone angrily: "You're kidding me! You fucking use your brain, okay? Bar!"

"This sentence, tell Fang Changlin as it is, there is no way, you have to gnaw it with your teeth! If you really let the people go into battle, we will bear the name of eternal infamy, do you understand?"

"Understood!" Lan Zhiguang's face was solemn: "We will arrive with all our strength."

"It's not all strength, it's a must! Definitely!"

"Yes!"

Time is lost, and the morning time has passed in a flash.

The drifting rainstorm has not turned smaller, the water level is still increasing, and even the upstream area has ushered in a wave.

Although the wave head is only a meter high, it looks insignificant, but in a big flood, it is enough to kill people.

This is called Hongfeng, and it is also the most dangerous existence in the flood!

Seeing that the troops had not yet arrived, the commander-in-chief could no longer sit still.

Once the flood peak completely hits, the dam just built may be destroyed in one fell swoop.

At that time, the flood will break through the dam, and the county behind it will turn into a vast ocean, and it will all be over.

"Everyone, come with me."

The commander-in-chief took off his poncho, put on a safety life jacket, and took the lead in roaring: "Let's fight today, use our body as a human wall to block the flood peak, and swear to live and die together with the levee! Even if we all sacrifice, we can definitely hurt one of the people!"

"Yes!"

Everyone at the scene roared in unison without any hesitation.

They took off their raincoats, put on life jackets, and followed the commander-in-chief to the dam despite the heavy drifting rain.

Dengdeng!

Gao Shiwei rushed out to stop in front of the team, and roared tragically: "Commander-in-chief, there are 1,143 people in the Southeast Military Region counting from me, and we are not dead yet! Before the troops arrive, by We rushed to block the flood, even if we used our bodies as a human wall, as long as the flood did not recede, we would swear to death.”

After speaking, without waiting for the commander-in-chief to reply, Gao Shiwei gave a solemn salute and turned to face the senior generals behind him.

"Everyone follow me, as long as you can breathe and move, all of them will go to the embankment. Even if we die here today, we must block the flood!"

"Yes!"

Everyone, all of them are united and shouted.

They took off their clothes, put on life vests, and rushed to the embankment with Gao Shiwei without hesitation.

The commander-in-chief withdrew his gaze and commanded with a grim expression: "Go, notify the county magistrate, and organize the young and middle-aged people in the city! In an hour, if they can't stop the flood, we will go again!"

"Yes!"

...

An hour has passed.

But Gao Shiwei and the others did not return, and it seemed that the situation was getting worse.

The commander-in-chief organized the personnel and was about to rush to the scene for rescue when unexpected news came from the rear.

A large-scale army and vehicles rushed towards the embankment.

Hearing the news, the commander-in-chief finally let go of his dangling heart and braved the heavy rain to meet him.

I saw military vehicles approaching from the blurry water curtain. When the vehicles stopped, a large number of soldiers in camouflage jumped out of the vehicles.

"Hahaha! Okay, okay, our troops are finally here!"

"With so many people, the levee has been saved. As long as the flood is blocked, the people will be saved."

Countless people cheered and shouted excitedly, and even hugged each other excitedly.

In the team, the two colonels trotted to the commander-in-chief and stopped, standing at attention and salute: "Report, Lan Zhiguang, commander of the ninth division of the Southeast Military Region, report to the commander-in-chief!"

"Fang Changlin, brigade commander of the Red Arrow Brigade of the Southeast Military Region, report to the chief!"

The commander-in-chief asked, "How many people did you bring?"

"We received an order from Chief Gao to gather all the troops of our division and the Red Arrow Brigade, including logistics, a total of more than 13,000 people, and also brought a large amount of flood-fighting materials, all in the car!" Lan Zhiguang reported loudly.

The commander-in-chief said excitedly: "Okay! Hurry up and replace your high chiefs, it's up to you to keep the embankment. This is related to the life and death of tens of thousands of people in the city, so be sure to stick to me!"

"Please rest assured, chief, and ensure that the task is completed!"

Lan Zhiguang and Fang Changlin shouted excitedly: "As long as we are here, we will never let the flood break through the levee! People are on the levee, and when people are not there, the levee will also be there."

The two saluted vigorously, then flew back to the troops, instructing their respective teams to unload various materials from the vehicles and transport them to the embankment quickly.

Lan Zhiguang is the division commander, and the Ninth Synthetic Brigade has also been upgraded to the Ninth Synthetic Division. There are also special engineers and boat bridge teams in the army. He can be described as an expert in water conservancy engineering.

Boom!

Under the command of the two, many armored vehicles with heavy loads slowly drove up the embankment.

The vehicles cooperated with each other, bang dong dong, and drove a lot of steel bars into the dam.

These steel bars form a square matrix on the embankment.

The other soldiers picked up sandbags one by one and kept filling in these reinforced squares.

With the interaction of steel bars and sandbags, the new levee built will become stronger and more defensive, so that it can last longer under the onslaught of flood water.

Everyone united, and rolled up their arms together.

Coupled with various flood control equipment and materials, after more than an hour of rescue and reinforcement, the most dangerous section of the levee was finally relieved.
