Chapter 455 ? The Soldier’s Character Remains Unchanged
Chapter 455: The soldier’s character remains unchanged
After a while, Li Zhan felt that the legs were no longer his. He had every reason to believe that the temperature of the river water was close to freezing point.
A middle-aged man came down and said in a rough voice, "It's important to save people! Comrades from the People's Liberation Army! We are all fine!"
The people behind him all echoed and walked down.
When Li Zhan saw this, he no longer hesitated and pulled the rope towards the vehicle where the incident occurred. Fortunately, the river was a little shallower in the middle, with a large concave riverbed. The water was only up to his knees, which served as a staging area. Several cars adjusted their headlights to shine down, illuminating the scene brightly.
Captain Bai was very anxious when he saw Li Zhan wading in the water. He knew who Li Zhan was. When he accepted this pick-up mission, his superiors repeatedly emphasized that absolute safety must be ensured. If Li Zhan's level was not too low, he would probably send another guard staff to escort him.
As a low-level important pilot in the Air Force, Captain Bai felt the importance of being a "guest", so he was very energetic.
Captain Bai knows how valuable pilots are. If there is any damage in order to save people, it may be a huge loss for the air force. Moreover, he cannot bear this responsibility. However, the situation at hand was obviously difficult to change. As a last resort, he could only continue to contact the local public security and fire departments and report to his superiors. But in this messy situation, there is no good solution for a while.
After learning that the public security fire rescue convoy was blocked on the road, Captain Bai rolled up his sleeves and helped on the spot. Nothing is more important than rescuing people first. Waiting for the police and fire rescue convoy to arrive, there will be no water to quench the thirst. And he must follow Li Zhan closely to prevent anything from happening. Captain Bai vaguely knew that the flight experts invited by the Li Zhan Military Region from other military regions were to conduct rated flights at the Zhongnan Field Station, which was very important. If the inspection and acceptance work of the station is affected due to scratches, the superiors will be held accountable and the guard area will have no choice but to walk around.
More and more people came to participate in the rescue work, and several vans were even emptied to accommodate the wounded waiting for the arrival of ambulance vehicles. Before the rescue force arrived, people stood by and extended a helping hand to the medium-sized bus that was involved in the accident. The addition of three active-duty soldiers played an extremely critical command and guidance role.
In a short period of more than thirty minutes, Li Zhan led his party members and comrades to rescue the last wounded person from the carriage. After quickly checking the conditions of the thirty-one passengers, Li Zhan breathed a sigh of relief. Except for the seriously injured driver and two passengers, no one else was seriously injured, and it was fortunate that no one died.
However, the bus carrying 31 passengers rolled onto its side and fell into the river, which still alarmed the provincial departments. The provincial departments reported the matter to the national departments in accordance with regulations. However, the rescue operation on the scene was very fast. Before the instructions from the relevant national departments came down, all All trapped persons have been rescued.
Shortly after the rapid siren sounded, a large number of rescue vehicles appeared, including those from the traffic police department, fire department, health department, and even interview vehicles from the TV station. Dozens of vehicles finally arrived at the scene and quickly took over the handling of the scene. , the first thing is to clear a channel to send the wounded to the hospital.
Ten minutes before this, a detachment sent by the nearby Air Force Engineering Battalion had approached the scene, but their presence was no longer necessary, so they withdrew to the camp under the latest order. No one in the area knew that this unit was the first rescue force to respond and arrive at the scene.
After a busy day, when people focused their attention on the drivers and passengers of other vehicles who spontaneously carried out rescue operations, and began to understand the rescue process of these temporarily organized non-professional rescue teams, everyone mentioned that the three active-duty rescuers were The soldiers organized everyone to work together and carry out timely rescue. However, when everyone turned around to look for them, they found that the three active-duty soldiers had already disappeared.
After confirming that they were no longer needed at the scene, Li Zhan and the other three quietly retreated. Lao Badao, who turned off the police lights on the Central Network, quietly left the traffic jam after a gap was opened.
Li Zhan, who was sitting in the second row, was changing clothes. He was soaked from head to toe.
Captain Bai said to the driver Xiao Zhang, "Turn the heating on to the maximum."
Xiao Zhang replied, "It's already at the highest setting. It will take some time for the temperature to come up."
Li Zhan Dong's whole body was shaking uncontrollably, and his lips and face were blue. He forced a smile and kept his voice as steady as possible, saying, "It doesn't matter, we pilots do a lot of cold-resistant training, and I I used to work in Beiku, where the temperature in winter is even lower."
"Major, the cold in the north is different from the cold in the south, and you have just been soaking in the river water that is close to freezing point for more than half an hour. You must take the time to recover your body temperature." Captain Bai said seriously, he was really afraid of Li Zhan If he was frozen, his superiors would blame him for not completing the mission successfully.
Li Zhan said, "It's indeed a bit tough, but I can still bear it."
He quickly changed out of his clothes, put on his winter desert camouflage uniform, and wrapped himself in Captain Bai's military coat for a while before gradually regaining his limbs. When he saw the time, it was past ten o'clock in the afternoon, he said, "No way. I arrived on time, I will explain the situation to my superiors, Xiao Zhang drives slowly, and I will squint for a while."
So Li Zhan succeeded in catching a fever.
Three days later, the female aviation doctor transferred from the Second Division from northern Guangxi came to give Li Zhan an injection. While making preparations, she said, "Teacher Li, take off your pants."
Li Zhan obediently took off his pants. After a hot female aviation doctor in his twenties and seventies put an injection in Li Zhan's butt, he said, "It's the last injection, Teacher Li. Your recovery ability is so fast. You’re in great shape.”
"Thank you, thank you for your hard work." Li Zhan thanked him with a smile and put on his pants.
The female aviation doctor said, "The chief of staff will be here soon. You have a good rest. If you feel uncomfortable, just press the call bell. I will rush over as soon as possible."
"No need, it's just a fever, don't make it so grand." Li Zhan said with a smile.
The female aviation doctor smiled and said, "You are now a national treasure, and the division attaches great importance to it, otherwise they would not have transferred me all the way from northern Guangxi."
After winking and smiling at Li Zhan, the female flight doctor took the tray and left. Isn't it? The aviation doctor personally does the work that the nurse does. This is not a little bit important.
"How is your recovery going?"
The sound came first before anyone arrived. Tang Guozheng came, looking like a township cadre with his hands behind his back. He said as he entered the door, "The pilot rating work at Zhongnan Station has been postponed for three days because of your bravery. I plan to come to the site for inspection of the first battle of the military region." Because you change, look how awesome you are."
Li Zhan quickly sat up and said, "Chief of Staff, I can fly tomorrow."
"Whether it's possible to fly will have an exact report from the aviation medical team. It doesn't matter what you say." Tang Guozheng pulled up a chair and sat down. "I've understood the situation. You don't need to go into the river at all. Take ten thousand steps back. He said that when two armies are facing off, you can’t just put the commander in charge at the beginning. You are acting without consideration."
Li Zhan explained, “I didn’t think much about it at the time, and I didn’t expect the crowd to be so awesome.”
Waving his hand, Tang Guozheng said, "Let's not talk about it anymore. The Dansha Garrison District asked whether to provide your information to the local department. After all, you are not from the Second Division or even from this military region, so I want to ask your opinion."
Li Zhan said decisively, "Of course I won't. It's just that there is no need to publicize it in a big way."
"You haven't watched the news these days?" Tang Guozheng suddenly frowned and asked.
Li Zhan looked at the simple but comfortable ward and said, "No, there is no TV to watch and no one delivers newspapers. What's wrong, Chief of Staff? What happened outside?"
"Ice and snow disaster."
Tang Guozheng said, "Most areas in the south have been affected by ice and snow disasters. Traffic in many places has been paralyzed and passengers have been stranded. More than one million passengers have been stranded at major railway stations such as Guangzhou and Nanjing. The transportation volume during the Spring Festival this year has decreased compared with the same period last year. The ice and snow disaster has seriously affected the normal production and life of the local area, especially as the Spring Festival is approaching."
He pointed at Li Zhan, "The whole country is fighting against ice and snow disasters. The local government attaches great importance to the matter of the bus falling into the river. Your deeds will definitely be publicized as a major example, and the troops are also very willing to do so." To launch such a poster child.”
Provincial leaders will be held accountable if more than six people were killed in a safety accident. The 31 passengers who were trapped in the bus when the bus fell into the river later found out that several of the seriously injured people might have died if they had not received timely treatment. He died of his injuries.
When the relevant local departments were frightened, they conducted an in-depth investigation and commended the personnel who spontaneously extended a helping hand at the scene and carried out rescue operations. Then Li Zhan and other three people surfaced. Captain Bai and Xiao Zhang returned to the security area agency. He didn't say anything until the relevant local departments came to visit him based on the clues provided by the masses. Only then did the head of the garrison area discover that his soldiers had quietly done a good deed that was very influential in the national news and public opinion. This was a big deal. The army quickly took action and together with the local propaganda department began to strike while the iron was hot to introduce the two typical models, Captain Bai and Xiao Zhang.
So Li Zhan also faced such a good thing.
Tang Guozheng said sternly, "This is no small matter. It is said that the Spring Festival Gala has added a link, which is to select the typical representatives of all walks of life who have performed well in the ice and snow disasters as national media representatives."
Li Zhan had no idea that a small thing in his opinion would have such a big impact.
But he said hurriedly, "No, no, no, no, old commander, I don't need to publicize it. It will be difficult to explain when seven first-class meritorious officers are dug out of the army."
Tang Guozheng wanted to say, didn't that prove that you are an outstanding representative of the Air Force, but he swallowed the words as soon as they reached his lips. Yes, none of the seven first-class merits are suitable for publicity. Besides, it is estimated that not many people believe this is true.
Isn't it a joke that the army has won seven first-class merit awards in just three years?
Moreover, Tang Guozheng vaguely guessed that Li Zhan had probably worked in some undisclosed units, which could not be publicized.
Tang Guozheng patted his knee and said, "What a pity. It's a good publicity opportunity."
When he thought that Li Zhan's establishment was not in the Second Division or even in the military region, Tang Guozheng decisively stopped talking. If you talk too much, it will easily make people think that the leaders of the Second Division are snobbish - they will push forward when there are benefits but have no responsibility.
Tang Guozheng would never think this way if he were facing other people, but he was facing Li Zhan. Everyone in the division is aware of Li Zhan's deeds. As time goes by, the fact that Li Zhan "bought a wife" and was driven away by division commander Qi Hong spread more and more widely, and the impact was on the leaders of the second division. Li Zhan generally has some sense of guilt. When facing Li Zhan, he will involuntarily think of what happened back then, and naturally he will involuntarily think about "fear of Li Zhan misunderstanding".
Li Zhan didn't think much about it. To him, the so-called publicity opportunity was really not important at all. He said, "I haven't been idle these days. Old commander, since the test flight and rating pilot at Zhongnan Station are in line, Two into one, combined with the latest development trends of the army, I have an immature idea."
"what idea?"
