Chapter 153: Millions of Troops Fight Against the Flood Demon
The flood fighting task continues, and the rain has not weakened as time goes by, and even tends to intensify.
The soldiers on the front line have been fighting continuously for a day and a night, and they have reached the limit both physically and mentally.
If the flood trend cannot be controlled, they will not be able to build a new round of flood defense lines.
"Police officer! What on earth did the Meteorological Bureau say? This damn rain keeps stopping? Why is the water level still rising?"
The heavy rain continued for three or four hours, and the water level continued to rise.
The teacher looked at the endless expanse of water and cursed in his heart.
"Commander, according to the news from the Meteorological Bureau, it will rain for at least another three hours."
The police officer shouted back.
The sound of wind and rain was so loud that even if the distance between him and the commander was only half a meter, his voice would have to be extremely loud to be heard.
"Damn it! It's going to rain for three more hours? Then the second flood control line can't stop the flood!"
"Connect me to the highest military district. It's absolutely not possible to continue like this. We must find other ways as soon as possible!"
The teacher shouted cursingly.
Soon, he got in touch with the head of the highest military region.
"Hey! Hey! Chief, can you hear me?"
The sound of wind and rain was so loud that the teacher could hardly hear the voice on the other end of the phone, so he could only shout at the top of his lungs.
"It's raining endlessly, and I'm worried that the second flood control line will soon be unable to stop it!"
"My soldiers have been fighting for a day and a night! They can hardly hold on any longer!"
"If we don't think of any other way, all my soldiers and the people in the middle and lower reaches will have to finish it off!"
After reporting the situation to the superior, the division commander stopped and waited for the other party's reply.
"Ah? What did you say? Louder, I'm not in a good place!"
"Rush to build a third flood control line? We can't rush to build it! My soldiers can't hold on any longer!"
"Flood discharge? Do you want to evacuate all the people in the middle and lower reaches? Okay! Okay! Let's do it!"
The division commander hung up the phone with a heavy face, and a dozen regiment leaders gathered around him at this time.
"Teacher, what do you say above? Do you want us to continue to hold on?"
The leader of the group asked anxiously.
"If you don't defend, it's his grandma's fault. Who can defend against such a huge flood? Go and tell the brothers to keep half of the people and continue to raise the second flood control line, and send out the rest!"
"According to the current flood situation, we only have 24 hours at most. Within 24 hours, we must evacuate all people in the middle and lower reaches to safe areas!"
"After all personnel have evacuated, the dam will begin to release water. If the water is not released in time, the dam will burst and the consequences will be disastrous!"
"Let all brothers take action now! Prepare for evacuation!"
"yes!"
More than a dozen regiment leaders responded loudly, and then quickly left, came to where their regiments were, and began to issue orders.
Tang Ming and the soldiers in his class were also assigned to carry out evacuation tasks. Soon, they followed other soldiers, got on military trucks, and began to rush to the villages and towns in the middle and lower reaches.
along the way
, this rain has been going on for nearly half a month.
As a result, the weather became extremely cold, and the cold wind blew into the car from outside. The soaked soldiers were all shivering and their teeth chattered.
The raindrops hitting the faces of the soldiers were like countless blades scratching them.
Soon, Tang Ming and the others came to a small town.
The water on the street is already half a meter deep, and the doors and windows of every house are closed. The street is full of blown billboards, downed trees, garbage, and debris.
"Everyone get out of the car!"
Soon the truck stopped on the street and someone whistled and shouted for them to get out.
The soldiers quickly jumped out of the car and stood on the street full of sewage.
When the people inside the house heard the noise, they stood at the windows and looked out curiously.
The heavy rain hit everyone, and the rain curtain made it almost impossible to open their eyes.
The leader looked at the crowd and shouted loudly: "Comrades, because the rain is too heavy, it is no longer possible to build flood control lines to stop the flood."
"So our superiors asked us to quickly organize the evacuation of people in the middle and lower reaches. Time is tight. We only have 24 hours."
"Within 24 hours, we must evacuate all the people in the middle and lower reaches, and then the dam will start to release water."
"Now, let me assign tasks to you."
When everyone heard the leader's words, they all stood ready.
"First Platoon, you are in charge of the western area of the city."
"Second Platoon, I will hand over the east side of the city to you."
"The third platoon is responsible for the north of the city, and the fourth platoon is responsible for the south."
"Remember, you must go door-to-door to inform and check, and make sure everyone has evacuated safely."
"Once the flood is released, the entire town will be submerged by the flood. If you are trapped by then, the consequences will be disastrous."
The chief said loudly.
"yes!"
Soldiers from each platoon responded loudly, and then quickly rushed towards their respective areas of responsibility.
