At night, the troops were evacuating in an orderly manner.
Often after such a disaster, if the soldiers left during the day, they would attract the attention of the local people, who would line the streets to see them off, taking out the best things they had and trying their best to give them to the departing soldiers.
Because on this land, it is because of these brave people who are not afraid of sacrifice that the lives and safety of more ordinary people are protected and their lives are stable.
This kind of close relationship between the people and the country has lasted for thousands of years on the land of China and has been integrated into the blood of every individual.
All experienced troops would quietly leave in the dead of night, trying not to attract the attention of the crowd.
In addition, the troops will specially arrange for new recruits who have just joined the army or are performing a mission for the first time to stay and leave during the day, so that they can deeply experience that everything everyone has contributed will be warmly responded by the people.
They worked hard and everyone felt it.
Zhao Weidong gathered all the soldiers and determined the number of people. Then the soldiers carried shovels on their shoulders and left in an orderly manner.
For fear of disturbing the people's rest, the footsteps were particularly light when leaving.
They had walked in on foot a week ago, so now they had to walk out on foot as well. The entire mountain road was filled with soldiers in military uniforms heading to the headquarters to meet up.
It took several hours of walking in the dark night.
When they were about to approach the urban area of Qingcheng, a soldier accidentally discovered a wounded person on the side of the road.
Zhao Weidong got the news and walked over quickly, and heard a woman groaning in pain.
“Ah… Save me… Save me… Save me…” The woman fell to the ground, unable to stand up. Her bulging belly was particularly obvious, her breasts were very big and round, and the soles of the shoes on her feet were worn out. It was unknown how much she had walked before.
Such a pregnant woman, in the middle of the night, fell down on the roadside.
If Zhao Weidong hadn't happened to pass by with his troops, no one would have noticed it even that morning.
After the pregnant woman saw Zhao Weidong, she recognized him as the commander of the army and quickly asked for help, "Comrade... Comrade Commander, save me... I'm about to give birth... Save me..."
She felt cramps in her stomach, which were obviously labor pains.
There was no one in their unit's medical company, let alone someone who could deliver a baby, so Zhao Weidong could only squat down to understand the pregnant woman's condition.
Zhao Weidong asked, "Why are you here alone?"
Just hearing this question, the pregnant woman's eyes turned red and she started crying, "It's gone... it's all gone... No one in my family is left, I'm the only one left... I'm the only one left... and there's the baby in my belly..."
"I'm about to give birth... There's no doctor in the village... No midwife... That's why I came out alone..."
"I heard from a young soldier that there is a temple on Mount Qingcheng... There are doctors in that temple who can deliver babies... I want to go there..."
"Comrade Commander, please... please take me there... There's no one at my house... There's no one there..."
Hearing about what happened to the pregnant woman made people's noses sore and the young soldiers' eyes immediately turned red.
However, some people wondered, "Why would there be a midwife in a temple? Blood is not allowed in Buddhist places."
Zhao Weidong frowned deeply, apparently confused.
The pregnant woman became excited when she heard it. "It's true! It's true! I heard it from a young soldier in our village. I didn't hear it wrong. Comrade Commander, I only have one baby in my belly. I must give birth to him. Please -"
Zhao Weidong's eyes darkened and he said decisively, "Arrange a stretcher."
