Volume 1 Chapter 306 Choose One
"Natural disaster, how can we resist it!!!"
No matter how strong the soldiers were, they couldn't help but tear up and collapse at this moment.
Gu Tingxiao rubbed his face and looked at his comrades and commanders such as the regiment commander and deputy regiment commander.
"I'll do whatever you say."
Sheng Wanze smiled, his eyes filled with sadness and determination.
"For the country and the people, at worst, after this is over, I will take off my military uniform and kneel down to apologize to my family!"
Sheng Wanze's words made everyone feel uneasy.
They know what choice they should make.
As a soldier, everything is for the people!
"Why are you all being so negative here?"
Gu Tingxiao took a deep breath. If God wanted this, he would resist to the end.
He wants to see who wins and who loses!
Even if he loses, he will lose without regrets!
"Comrades from the city have half a day to arrive. We only need to block the water outlet in the village within half a day."
"Then we'll have time for the family compound."
"This battle is not only for the country and the people, but also for yourselves!"
"stand at attention!"
The soldiers straightened up and looked at Gu Tingxiao.
"I'll give you half a day to block the water outlet in the village!"
"This is an order! Can you do it?"
"able!"
"able!"
"able!"
…
…
The soldiers were all excited, and the sound seemed to break through the sky!
"action!"
The soldiers immediately joined the disaster relief work. The village chief's son saw this scene from behind and lowered his head.
If it weren't for saving the villagers, the families of these heroes wouldn't be in danger.
And all the men in the village are cowards!
Are they worthy of the efforts of these heroes?
“Can I join in?”
Gu Tingxiao heard a young voice, turned around, and saw an 18-year-old young man standing behind him.
"I...I am strong and can help."
"How old?"
“18!”
The 18-year-old young man looked at Gu Tingxiao with passion in his eyes, and the 28-year-old Gu Tingxiao smiled.
"Whether it's moving things or carrying sandbags, I can do it!"
"I work in the fields every day to earn centimeters. I'm very strong!"
Gu Tingxiao looked at him, saw the familiar passion in his eyes, and said nothing.
"I really can, I'm so strong!"
"It's very dangerous down there. You could die at any time."
"I'm not afraid! This is my village, and I want to do my part."
"My home and my family are all here. It's worth it even if I die."
"What's your name?"
"Jung Yong-eun!"
Zheng Yongen looked at him nervously, but he didn't dare to meet the soldier's gaze.
"Help me carry the sandbags to the foot of the mountain for the soldiers."
When Zheng Yongen thought there was no hope, he heard Gu Tingxiao's calm and reliable voice.
"yes!"
Zheng Yongen yelled and hurried to help carry sandbags.
The water at the foot of the mountain was up to his waist, but Gu Tingxiao still protected his safety.
Gu Tingxiao picked up a sandbag in one hand and walked towards the foot of the mountain.
Zheng Yongen turned around and looked at his tall and reliable back as he walked forward regardless of everything, and felt admiration in his heart.
It seemed as if I had found a sense of belonging and direction in my heart. I have never felt this way in my 18 years of life.
"Captain! The rain is getting heavier!"
“Speed up!”
The soldier who was blocking the water outlet at the front was unable to stand steadily due to the water and almost fell down.
Team leader Fang picked him up and said, "You go to the back and pass the sandbags. I'll do it!"
"Captain, I can."
"This is an order!"
"yes!"
Gu Tingxiao carried two sandbags and went straight to the front, replacing the soldier at the front.
"The people at the back should switch with the people in the front! Take turns to rest!"
"yes!"
The villagers on the mountain looked at the soldiers below and felt indescribable feelings in their hearts.
The village chief looked around and found his son carrying a sandbag, and his eyes turned red unconsciously.
"Captain! Many soldiers are frozen!"
Gu Tingxiao turned his head and looked at his comrades who were soaking in the water with pale faces, his teeth were chattering from the cold.
"Switch with the person behind you!"
"Take turns!"
"yes!"
Gu Tingxiao took the sandbags and piled them on top of each other layer by layer.
The soldiers couldn't stand the weather and had to soak in the water. Some of them couldn't stand and fell down.
"Are you okay?"
The fainted soldier was helped up and looked back to see the able-bodied men in the village.
"Why did you come down the mountain? It's very dangerous here!"
"We're here to help!"
More and more villagers entered the water and took the sandbags from the soldiers.
"Right! We're here to help!"
"You guys take a break! We'll do it!"
Hundreds of men in the village came, the youngest was 16 years old and the oldest was 50 years old.
"you……"
Everyone was a little surprised, looking at the villagers with eyes filled with indescribable feelings.
"This is our home! We must protect it!"
"Everyone, quickly replace the soldiers and let them rest for a while!"
The villagers took over the work from the soldiers one by one and helped the soldiers who could not hold on any longer to go up the mountain to warm themselves by the fire.
"Ting Xiao, the villagers are here to help."
Sheng Wanze used his body to support the sandbag at the water outlet and was somewhat surprised by the villagers' actions.
Gu Tingxiao glanced back and said, "Tell everyone to speed up! The family compound is still waiting for us!"
"Everyone, speed up! The family compound is still waiting!"
Some soldiers who couldn't bear it anymore instantly perked up when they heard the words "family compound".
What’s there to be afraid of about the cold! What's there to be afraid of if you catch a cold! What's there to be afraid of?
None of these are as important as having family members come!
———
Sheng Wanyan opened the door and frowned as she looked at the water outside that had accumulated up to her calves.
He hurried out and knocked on the door opposite, anxiously.
"Yan'er, it's raining so hard and there's water outside, why did you come out?"
Grandma Sheng was a little surprised to see her, and Sheng Wanyan hurried to find Pan Yue.
"sister in law!"
"Yan'er, what's wrong?"
"Take grandpa, grandma and Hu Zi to the tube building."
"ah?"
Pan Yue didn’t understand what Sheng Wanyan meant. Why would they go to the tube building in the heavy rain?
"Sister-in-law, it's raining so hard and the water is so deep..."
"The village was flooded, and I'm afraid this place won't be immune."
When Pan Yue heard her words, his hands trembled and the things in his hands fell to the ground.
"You mean! Flood!"
Pan Yue's voice was trembling, and Grandma Sheng and Grandpa Sheng widened their eyes when they heard it.
"Our home is here, and everything is here!"
"What will happen to the things at home after we take them away?"
Grandma Sheng looked at the things in the house, all of which were the result of their hard work.
“People are the most important!”
Pan Yue came to her senses immediately and hurriedly picked up Hu Zi.
"Yes! Grandpa and grandma, people are the most important!"
"Take Hu Zi and Yi Yi to my mother's house first. Yan Er and I will come back later to get some important things."
As soon as Pan Yue finished speaking, Political Commissar Xie and Pan's father rushed back.
"Quick! Everyone, go to the tube building!"
Pan's father came into the house and gave his house key to Pan Yue.
