Chapter 1344 Wounded
After some discussion, this was the only way to proceed, because the floor slab pressing down on it could not be safely moved by manpower. If something went wrong, there was a risk of another collapse below, which would compromise the safety of the men below.
After discussing the matter, everyone decided to dig from the side and rear, so that they could treat his trapped leg as soon as possible and buy more time for rescue.
The next question was who would go in to rescue the injured. Everyone was eager to go in, but in the end, Fu Yancheng shouted, "Obey orders!"
Most of his comrades who were searching and rescuing in this area were not yet married, so he naturally had to take responsibility in such a dangerous situation.
This rescue was really difficult; an hour had passed and they had only crawled forward less than two meters.
For the wounded trapped underground, time is life. Not only was Fu Yancheng anxious, but the group of people assisting outside were even more worried, as there was always the possibility of aftershocks, and they dared not imagine the consequences.
Fu Yancheng dared not stop for a moment in order to buy time. His face and arms were covered in scratches, and sweat was running into his eyes. He could only close his eyes and rub his shoulder, but the space was limited. Only those who suffered knew the pain. It took more than two hours to finally get behind the person. There was blood under the leg that was being pressed down, and the person was now almost unconscious.
After much effort, they finally managed to clear away the rubble under her legs, using nearby objects for support. They quickly applied some simple hemostasis to the wound on her leg, and then pinched her other uninjured leg to keep her conscious. Only then did they try to pull her back little by little.
It wasn't until half an hour later that the person was finally rescued.
Just as they lifted the person onto the stretcher, the mother and child who had been waiting nearby rushed over: "My son, how are you?"
Just as she finished speaking, an aftershock struck. Seeing something fall behind the woman, Fu Yancheng reacted quickly, shielding her with his bare hands. The falling stone grazed Fu Yancheng's back as it landed.
At this point, everyone realized what was happening and quickly evacuated the area.
Once everyone reached a safe area, Ma Wuliang, who was standing next to Fu Yancheng, asked anxiously, "Battalion Commander, how are you?"
After asking, she noticed that Fu Yancheng's back was stained with blood: "Doctor, doctor."
Hearing the shouts, some of the medical personnel from the unit who had come on the mission with him rushed over with their medical kits. Seeing Ma Wuliang supporting Fu Yancheng, they asked, "Where are you hurt?"
Ma Wuliang said in a loud voice, "Our battalion commander has a back injury, quickly take a look at him."
The nurse went to the back and, after examining the injury, said, "It's not convenient to treat this person here. Quickly get them to the medical point up ahead."
There was an aftershock here, and the air is full of dust. If we were to handle the situation here, the risk of infection would be too great.
Fu Yancheng originally wanted to say that they should just deal with it here, as they still had to go on the search and rescue mission, and time was of the essence. However, Ma Wuliang immediately understood his meaning: "Commander Fu, you haven't slept for days. This injury is more than just abrasions. I'll take you to the medical station."
After saying that, she lowered her voice and whispered in his ear: "Your sister-in-law is looking forward to your early return. Your back is badly scraped, and there is a very deep cut. Don't try to be brave."
Before Fu Yancheng could say anything more, Ma Wuliang called over a comrade: "Come and lend a hand, get Fu Ying to the medical point."
It's true that Ma Wuliang wasn't exaggerating; his back injury was really quite severe.
