Chapter 288
Disasters always come so suddenly
"Then I'll leave too." When the man's eldest brother saw the man leave, he also walked out with his family.
He has always been very supportive of his younger brother, and when he saw his younger brother made the decision, he quickly stood up.
Following the veteran's move, several people came over with their families.
But in a village with hundreds of households, only a few families came out, which is far from enough.
"Transfer these people first, and then we will slowly work on the others."
The soldiers could only ask people to move their belongings from the homes of those who were willing to move to a safe place.
Not many people left that night, but the soldiers did not dare to leave. They all camped outside the village, ready to be on standby at any time.
The next morning, the villagers' faces were filled with disdain.
Didn’t they say it would rain heavily starting today? Where is the rain? The sunflower seeds have blinded my eyes, so how can there be rain?
"You don't have to stay here. We won't move." The village chief walked up to the soldiers and persuaded them.
He also knew that soldiers were very busy, so how could he keep watch over them all the time?
"Protecting you is our mission. Please evacuate immediately." An officer continued to persuade the village chief.
But the village chief just laughed it off and went to work.
Then everyone in the village got up and went to work in the fields in groups of three or four.
The officer's eyes turned red, and he didn't know how to persuade these ordinary people.
But at this moment, the sky quickly darkened, and the rising sun was quickly covered by dark clouds.
Then the mountain wind began to blow.
"Move with us immediately." The officer was keenly aware that something was wrong. If these people moved with them at this time, it would still be in time.
"It's going to rain. That's great. My corn will finally be saved this year."
"Yes, rain, rain, rain hard, the heavier the better."
…
But the villagers still didn’t leave. Wasn’t it just rain? It’s not like they haven’t seen it before.
The officer looked at the thunder in the sky with a frown on his face. If before he was just trying to complete the mission, now he could feel the danger.
It was broad daylight, with constant thunder and lightning. It must be a heavy rainstorm.
The village in the mountains relies on the mountains. If a mudslide comes, it will be completely destroyed.
"Get ready immediately and help the villagers move." The officer also had rich experience. He immediately ordered his men to start helping the villagers move. At this time, the villagers could no longer do what they wanted.
"Yes." The soldiers immediately began to go to the villagers' homes in batches.
"Crash!" Heavy rain poured down from the sky directly after a thunderclap. It really fell directly without any process of raindrops at all.
The villagers had just insisted that they would not move no matter what, but now they were frightened by the heavy rain.
They had seen many heavy rains, but this was the first time one as heavy as today's.
"Move immediately." At the officer's command, the soldiers helped the elderly, the weak, women and children to rush to a safe place, while the men followed behind, driving the chickens, ducks and pigs at home.
But the mountain road that was fine yesterday has now become very muddy. If you are not careful, you will fall to the ground, and then your already wet clothes will be covered with mud.
In the end, the soldiers simply carried the elderly on their backs and held the children in their arms as they walked through the rain. Their upright figures moved many people.
The village chief was really regretful. Just a moment in the morning he was still swearing that the soldiers were worrying too much. How could it rain when the sun was so bright?
Now he's been completely slapped in the face.
"I, I, I! Hi!" The village chief wanted to say some words of apology to the officer, but he couldn't say anything. Whatever he said at this moment would be so pale.
"It's bad. There's already a minor mudslide at the foot of the mountain. There are more than a hundred families there, all taking shelter at home. No matter how much we shout, they ignore us."
At this time, a soldier ran over hurriedly, wiped the rain off his face, and reported anxiously.
"I'll go." When the village chief heard this, he finally had a chance to use his skills. He immediately followed the soldiers to the back of the village. Those people were even more stubborn than he was.
"Boom." Another series of thunder explosions, making people's scalps numb.
The soldiers were well-trained and took those people to a safe place.
The officer and the village chief came to the mountain and saw a muddy yellow water flowing down from the mountain, and the water was becoming thicker and thicker.
"Move immediately, don't take shelter from the rain, come out now, everyone, come out." The village chief shouted at the top of his lungs.
He also saw the mudslide and his brows were tightly furrowed.
"Dear fellow villagers, please come out immediately. It is very dangerous here and there may be a landslide." The officer ordered the soldiers to shout towards the more than 100 households.
But after the shouting, few people came out, and even after the village chief shouted, no one responded.
"Village chief, we are not stupid. We don't stay indoors on rainy days, but mess around outside."
Someone couldn't stand it anymore and went to the window and shouted at the village chief.
"Break the door." The officer didn't care about anything else at this moment. He saw that the mountain had begun to shake.
"yes."
So the soldiers started to smash the door with what they had.
With a "pop", a large piece of mountain flowed down and directly submerged the few farmhouses in the innermost part.
"ah!"
Some villagers who were still evacuating screamed in fear when they saw their houses being swallowed up in an instant.
"Li Ergou, Wang Muchui, hurry out! It's collapsed! It's collapsed! A mudslide is coming."
Someone screamed.
At this time, the villagers on the mountainside became anxious and quickly opened the door to see what was going on, but another piece of the mountain had fallen down...
"You guys leave quickly, we will take the chickens and ducks." The officer said to the villagers.
The villagers were anxious at this time and started to drive away the pigs, chickens and ducks...there was a lot of crying and shouting.
The rain was getting heavier and heavier, and it was hurting more and more when it hit my body.
It was pitch dark. At the end of the day, only half of the villagers had been relocated. The other half were now trapped by the landslide and could not get out.
The officer asked someone to report it and requested additional resources, especially since there were many injured people and medical personnel were needed.
In the research institute, Dean Li received a call and was completely shocked.
Didn’t they say there would be a week of heavy rain? It's already so tragic on the first day. We need to seek medical resources immediately and need a lot of medicine.
The Northwest is particularly large, but there are very few hospitals. In the area where the collapse occurred, the nearest place is only a health center.
