In the medical tent, Wei Zhao heard the noise outside and his expression changed slightly, but returned to normal after a moment.
He glanced sideways, and watched quietly through the opened door curtain as Li Xiulan was escorted away. Then he turned around and continued to treat the wounds of the wounded in front of him with a serious look on his face.
Everything was as normal as if nothing had happened.
-
The military truck was bumpy on the road for a day and a night. Many people vomited along the way, their faces turned pale and their conditions were worrying.
Especially some girls in the art troupe, who have slightly weaker physical constitutions, their faces are full of fatigue and anxiety.
They are afraid that with this condition, what will happen if they get to the front line and become a burden to others?
The car drove for a long time and suddenly stopped abruptly.
Amid the whistling wind, the driver's curse could be heard faintly: "We can't go any further now. There's water up ahead because of the heavy rain. The river has washed away the embankment and the road is completely blocked. We can't get through!"
Hearing the sound, everyone leaned out to look.
Jiang Xiachu was sitting nearby and saw the situation outside at a glance. He couldn't help but gasp and frowned.
At a glance, the front was filled with muddy and turbulent river water. The original road had been washed away and was in a mess. Only a pile of dead branches and leaves mixed with mud and some rocks remained.
A younger girl was so frightened by the scene that she almost cried, "It's over, I can't get through this, what should I do..."
The other girls were also shocked. They thought the heavy rain was bad enough, but they didn't expect that the accumulated water would destroy the embankment and collapse the bridge when they crossed the river.
Jiang Xiachu looked serious, clenched his fists, and his heart began to beat fast.
We have come this far, we must not back down because of this.
While she was thinking about countermeasures, the PLA soldiers leading the team in front had already started to act quickly. They were packing their bags in an orderly manner, jumping out of the car one by one, and preparing to cross the river directly.
"Comrades, since the bridge has collapsed and we can't pass, let's just wade across the river!" The leader at the front of the team put on his backpack, turned to look at the soldiers behind him, and shouted in a loud voice.
As soon as his voice came out, the hearts of the others became more determined and they responded one after another.
"yes!"
"yes!"
There was no fear or hesitation on the soldiers' faces. They walked forward without saying a word, their eyes full of determination and resolve to cross the river.
Seeing this, Jiang Xiachu took a deep breath, his heart full of admiration for the PLA soldiers. He packed his bag and jumped out of the car.
Seeing this, Lin Qingli and Qin Ningqian also got out of the car with their bags on their backs.
Seeing this, the remaining girls in the car also hesitated.
After a while, a girl suddenly spoke up: "Comrades, don't be afraid. If even the soldiers can get through, then we can too! We've come this far, is there any reason to turn back?!"
As soon as he finished speaking, the others echoed him, their tone quite excited: "Yes, the conditions of the soldiers on the front line are even worse than ours, and they have never mentioned giving up. Should we give up? Are we worthy of wearing this uniform?"
The girls nodded, encouraged each other, followed Jiang Xiachu out of the car, and stood behind the team of PLA soldiers.
Jiang Xiachu followed the PLA soldiers and took the lead in walking forward, stretching his legs and stepping into the rushing river.
As soon as Jiang Xiachu stepped into the river, the cold water instantly soaked her legs. The biting cold made her shiver.
But she gritted her teeth and persisted, walking forward step by step, enduring the cold.
Seeing this, the other girls also followed Jiang Xiachu. They linked arms tacitly and stood in a tight team.
However, the impact of the river water was far greater than they had imagined. The wind blew, a huge wave came, and a girl in the middle of the team was suddenly swept away. She suddenly slipped and was knocked down by the river and was instantly washed several meters away.
"Help!" Her cry for help made everyone's heart jump to their throat, "Save me!"
When Jiang Xiachu saw this scene, his heart instantly rose to his throat and he became extremely nervous.
The other girls were afraid of being washed away, so they quickly filled the vacancy left by the girl who was washed away and held hands again in an instant.
At this moment, everyone was more careful, fearing that they would be washed away, and they held on tighter.
Jiang Xiachu turned around and looked over against the wind, shouting, "I'm at the front, leaving won't affect everyone's team! I'm going to save her, everyone hold hands, don't get separated again!"
Her voice was a little blurred by the strong wind, but the girls still heard it clearly and nodded in agreement.
Jiang Xiachu then let go of everyone's hands and swam quickly towards the girl.
She was not actually that selfless, but after careful consideration, she was the most suitable person to save people.
At that time, even if she was blown away, she could hide directly in the space, at least there would be no danger.
Jiang Xiachu quickly swam to the girl and grabbed her arm tightly.
Seeing this, Lin Qingli hurriedly led the team to carefully walk towards Jiang Xiachu, his face anxious, "Xiachu, come to me, hold my hand!"
She stretched out her hand desperately towards Jiang Xiachu, her face flushed red, and she wished her hands were two meters long.
Fortunately, everyone's concerted efforts were effective. Soon Jiang Xiachu came over with his men, dragging his tired body and bringing them back to the team.
