Chapter 274 Awarding Merit
There was no one outside the room, so the two of them left Gu Yuanping's house and walked downstairs.
The atmosphere in the entire military stronghold was very depressing, and no one had a glimmer of hope in their eyes.
It was as if this earthquake had also wiped out their hope of survival.
When they saw them coming down, most of the soldiers and medical staff recognized them and greeted them.
Even if you don’t know Han Ying and Lu Yuan, you will know the big dog next to them.
Almost all the soldiers and medical staff in the resettlement site knew that there was a very powerful dog that assisted the rescue team and saved countless people.
A soldier brought them their thermal insulation suits, two sets of protective clothing and a pack of masks.
"The deputy base commander told me to go find him after you get up and to make sure you put on protective clothing before going out."
He just told me to go find him, but didn't say where the deputy base commander was.
The main reason was that when Gu Yuanping gave him instructions, he did not tell Han Ying and the others where to find him.
"OK, thanks."
Lu Yuan took the heat-insulating suit, the two sets of protective clothing and the mask and said.
After a day of high temperatures, the bodies had begun to rot, and it was very necessary for the search and rescue personnel to wear protective clothing and masks.
Even if we search and rescue at this time, the chance of finding anyone alive is very small.
However, the people at the base were still unwilling to give up on the few people who were trapped underneath and were holding on to hope and waiting for rescue.
The horribly high temperature and dry air meant that neither of them had any appetite.
But I will lose my appetite even more after the search and rescue work continues.
So the two forced themselves to eat a piece of compressed biscuit and drink half a bottle of mineral water.
Han Ying took out a special protective suit from her backpack for the dog.
Han Ying has modified many of these special protective suits herself.
What I’m afraid of is that if the day comes when the need arises, it will be too late to modify it, so I will take it out and tinker with it in my spare time.
"I made it during the poison fog. I didn't expect it would come in handy now."
Ignoring the strange looks from others, Han Ying put on the protective suit for the dog, but still gave an explanation.
Then they put something made by Lu Yuan around its neck, which was a bit like the shackles worn by prisoners in ancient times.
It's just an empty frame, very light, used to fix the mask for dogs.
The outfit that the dog wears at night is even more eye-catching than the one he wears during the day.
Although the daytime outfit was ugly, it still looked quite impressive.
This one at night is not only ugly, but also a bit funny, but it is safe and can prevent germs.
However, considering that this was the battle suit specially prepared for it by the boss, the dog didn't want to take it off even though he was disgusted. He just stood there obediently and let Han Ying play with it.
After dressing Tangyuan, Han Ying suppressed the smile.
After putting the thermal insulation clothing into the backpack, she and Lu Yuan began to put on protective clothing.
The two of them naturally didn't know where Gu Yuanping was, but the dog could smell it.
I think Gu Yuanping also thought of this, which is why he explained it to that person just now.
Following Tangyuan, we came to Area A, which is a shared rental area.
It is the most densely populated area in the base, but the earthquake happened at night and many people were out working.
Only about half of the people are left in their rented houses.
I counted them along the way and found that a total of 5 buildings collapsed in area A.
There were ruins everywhere, and the two men and the dog quickly found Gu Yuanping.
At this time, he was driving the crane himself to assist in the rescue.
Han Ying and the others did not wait for Gu Yuanping to calm down, but directly participated in the rescue work.
Gouzi is the most important part of the whole event today.
There are several life detectors in the base, but each of them has defects of one kind or another.
Otherwise, there is no way to distinguish whether the buried person is dead or alive.
Or they are easily disturbed by the surrounding environment and sounds.
Either the detection depth is not deep enough, which may easily lead to omissions.
Therefore, the role of glutinous rice balls is really huge. They can accurately determine whether the person buried below is dead or alive, and where he is.
The rescue team breathed a sigh of relief when they saw Han Ying and Lu Yuan coming with the dog.
Because they had been out for more than an hour, and so far they had cleared several piles of rubble, but had not saved a single living person.
Although the bodies in the ruins also need to be cleared out, of course living people are more important at this time.
The first priority is to save lives.
The military dogs in the base were also dispatched.
Half of them stayed inside the base, and the other half were taken outside by the base commander to participate in the rescue work.
But these military dogs are not professional rescue dogs, and the role they can play in rescue is limited.
Therefore, we still have to rely on Tangyuan.
"Go ahead."
Han Ying patted Tangyuan's head and said.
The dog took the order and rushed out, running to the edge of the ruins and sniffing here and there.
Five more bodies were dug out from the rubble, but not a single one was alive.
Then Gu Yuanping came down directly from the crane. When he saw the dog, he knew that Han Ying and Lu Yuan were coming.
It was Lu Yuan's turn to go up to the crane, and Gu Yuanping continued to direct the work.
The rescue work lasted for more than 5 hours, and a total of 7 people were rescued.
More than 500 bodies were unearthed.
The living people were taken to temporary medical centers for treatment, but no one was sure whether they could survive.
Most of the bodies were badly decayed and could not wait to be claimed so they were taken away for unified disposal.
The rescue team was forced to take turns to rest, so as not to fail to rescue anyone and end up sacrificing themselves.
Han Ying, Lu Yuan and the dog went into the rest area, took off their protective clothing, sprayed their bodies with disinfectant, and then sat down to rest.
There are no soft and delicious hot steamed buns to eat outside, and everyone only eats compressed biscuits with mineral water.
Even if you have no appetite, you have to force yourself to swallow it.
Tangyuan eats the dog food and canned dog food that Han Ying brought over, and no one would envy it.
The two of them were munching on compressed biscuits when Gu Yuanping came over and sat down next to them.
"Thank you both for your hard work. You have been of great help this time, especially this dog. The base wants to award it a second-class meritorious dog medal."
As Gu Yuanping said this, he wanted to reach out and touch Tangyuan's head, but it nimbly dodged him.
Are you kidding? Can anyone touch its dog head?
"Deputy Base Commander, I refuse!"
Han Ying put down the compressed biscuit she was chewing and refused without any hesitation.
"The welfare and treatment of the second-level meritorious dog..."
Gu Yuanping didn't expect Han Ying to refuse so quickly.
"It is my responsibility to raise Tangyuan. Lu Yuan and I will do our best to make sure it lives a good life. When the base needs it, we will help as much as we can."
"But if the deputy base commander insists, we will go back now. I think we should have this freedom, right?"
