Chapter 287: Under natural disasters, how can any eggs remain intact?
Because of the simultaneous occurrence of heavy rain and backflow of Yinjiang River, landslides and mud-rock flows were also triggered. GJ is already rescuing the official base of Shancheng, but the heavy rain is too heavy and the water cannot be drained out. It is estimated that the entire Yinjiang River will be greatly affected. The survivors living near Yinjiang River may have been affected and are gone!
The mountain city now is no different from hell. Not only are there countless casualties, but even many of the rescue soldiers have lost their lives inside.
This group of survivors left the mountain city before the landslide and mudslide occurred. When they left the mountain city, it started to rain heavily. They were lucky and survived.
Lu Xingtang and others were in a very heavy mood. They did not expect that the natural disaster in the mountain city would be so serious. It seemed that the mountain city had become a dead city.
"Do you know how many survivors in Shancheng have been safely evacuated and gone to other places or the Lancheng base for shelter?" Lu Xingtang asked.
One of the survivors said, "We don't know the exact number. When we left, there were still many survivors who did not leave, and we don't know if they survived! But before we left, most of the survivors had left, and they were faster than us!" As long as they left the mountain city, even if they walked slowly, they would be away from the backflow of river water and the invasion of storms in the mountain city. Even if it rained in Sichuan Province, they would have a great chance of survival and the death toll would not be particularly large.
Lu Xingtang gave them some food and asked them to save some and go to the Lancheng base. The Lancheng base would definitely take them in and let them survive.
The survivors were stunned when they saw the food. They didn't expect that 15 years after the end of the world, there were still people willing to give them food. This kind of generous behavior only happened in the end of the world and only appeared in soldiers.
Everyone clutched their food tightly, their eyes reddened. "Hurry up and get to Lancheng Base! Lancheng Base is waiting for you! Perhaps after a while, you'll run into people who've set out from Lancheng Base to help Shancheng Base!"
The survivors all cried. They immediately packed their food, carried their supplies on their backs or shoulders, and headed towards Lancheng.
After watching the survivors leave, Lu Xingtang and the others immediately discussed the current situation. Because there was a heavy rainstorm accompanied by thick fog in the mountain city, and no one knew when it would stop, the plane definitely could not fly to the mountain city to investigate the situation. They were now quite far away from the mountain city, and it was very unrealistic to walk there.
It would be nice if the heavy rain stopped and the thick fog lifted.
It was impossible for Lu Xingtang to stay here and wait for the thick fog in the mountain city to dissipate and the heavy rain to stop. Instead, he asked the pilot and two other people to stay here and wait. He gave them a fully charged walkie-talkie and asked them to rest first and fly to the mountain city later. If the natural disaster situation in the mountain city improved, they should immediately return to the Lancheng base and tell Su Cheng about it. He would ask Su Cheng to arrange vehicles and supplies to rush to the mountain city, and they would wait for them in the mountain city.
The pilot and the other two disagreed somewhat, thinking that it was inappropriate for the base commander and the deputy base commander to risk their lives to enter the mountain city. They asked them to wait for a while and they would all go into the mountain city together to check the situation. It wouldn't matter if they waited a little longer.
Lu Xingtang was determined that they must separate: "Hold on to the walkie-talkie. The channel of this walkie-talkie and the one in my hand are already matched. You can contact me when you get to the mountain city. Don't worry about not being able to find me!"
Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo could not be refused, so they had to watch Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo leave. Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo each rode a mountain bike and carried a backpack. When they met survivors, they would ask about the situation in the mountain city. The information they asked was the same: the mountain city was suffering from a severe disaster brought by storms and river backflow.
After riding for three hours, they could no longer ride. The water level of Yinjiang River rose sharply. Lu Xingtang and his friends could not determine the water level, but it had already submerged many houses. The mountains and cities were all flooded.
It was difficult for them to ride their mountain bikes. The road was full of cracks, gravel, broken branches, soil with grass, etc. There was water in the cracks. They put the mountain bikes into the space and took two large bamboo poles, tapping the ground as they walked, especially the puddles and cracks in the road, for fear of accidentally falling into the cracks!
"We haven't reached the mountain city yet. Sichuan Province has been affected so badly, and the situation in the mountain city is even more miserable!" Lu Xingtang frowned.
"Under natural disasters, nothing can escape unscathed. Let's just do what we can!" Ji Yanmo said, "Just be careful and walk slowly!" The two of them collected supplies as they walked. There weren't any large items, just large rocks, broken trees, and roots, which they stored in their space to use for burning fires or building bases. They also stored broken concrete pavement in their space. While it wasn't very useful, they could use it to pave roads in the future, making it easier to walk on than a dirt road.
After walking for about an hour, they met the survivors. The survivors were sitting on the ground, covered in dirt, without any energy, but their eyes were full of desire for life.
After a quick look around, there were about 11 survivors, three of whom were soldiers. The soldiers were lying on the ground with red faces and black clothes, but their exposed skin was covered with wounds. Lu Xingtang knew at a glance that they had high fevers due to inflammation of the wounds.
One of the survivors was staring at the soldier lying on the ground, smacking his lips constantly, and the thoughts in his eyes were self-evident. Lu Xingtang's eyes turned cold and he walked over immediately: "Are you all survivors who escaped from the mountain city base?" The survivors were not in good condition, but they were much better than the three soldiers.
The survivors looked at Lu Xingtang and Ji Yanmo weakly, "The mountain city base has been destroyed, and the mountain city has also been destroyed. Don't go to the mountain city base, go to the Lancheng base." This was because they thought they were going to the mountain city base.
Lu Xingtang's eyes softened. "I'm the commander of Lancheng Base. I've come here specifically to learn about the situation at Shancheng Base. We've already arranged for assistance to Shancheng Base. Now that you've left Shancheng Base, head all the way to Lancheng Base. If you meet anyone from Lancheng Base on the way, you can ask them for supplies!"
Then Lu Xingtang took out his backpack and took out a lot of rice balls and a bottle of water from it. The survivors were stunned by the identities of Lu Xingtang and his friends. The moment they saw the rice balls, they couldn't help but grab them from Lu Xingtang's hands and ate them up voraciously.
Lu Xingtang took out all the rice balls from his backpack and gave them the cooked sweet potatoes and potatoes. "Eat slowly. Although we didn't bring much food, it's enough for you to eat until you're half full."
"Thank you!"
