Xiao Zhen received an emergency notice to return to the team in early August, made arrangements for the follow-up, and had a meal with his parents at their home in Taipingshan. When he left, he left a note in his father's study, stating that if anything happened to him, all his assets would be merged into the family trust.
Who can tell what will happen tomorrow or in an accident? After Xiao Zhen returned to Jinshan base and successfully experimented with the method of quickly closing the iron cage with his comrades from the research institute, he notified Lao Qin to organize his comrades at the base to practice.
He had Director Jiang of the Science and Technology Commission report the new method to the military headquarters in Beijing, and then it was quickly distributed to all military regions.
Xiaozhen also sent a report to the chief flood control commander, Uncle Yang, stating that the river embankment and tributary main embankments had passed comprehensive acceptance in April, and all the people relocated from low-lying areas had been resettled.
Despite such abnormal weather, after the main stream and major tributaries in the middle and lower reaches withstood the test of the flood peak, at least the big cities and major cities along the river were safe. However, the country is too large, and some unexpected small tributaries still presented dangerous situations.
Xiao Zhen and his troops from the Jinshan base were asked to go to Zhenjiang to rescue the trapped people.
Xiao Zhen drove back to Huamei Aerospace by himself, installed emergency medical equipment and lifting equipment on 20 M911s in the warehouse, and then took 20 heavy civilian helicopters to his uncle Yang's command center to be deployed.
Xiao Zhen drove an M911 himself, contacted Lao Qin, caught up with the troops, and took two comrades from the medical team to fly directly to their mission area in Zhenjiang.
Xiao Zhen turned on the search and rescue radar and flew at low altitude. When he saw people flooded to the roof, he hovered and lowered the steel cable. After his comrades descended the rope, they immediately put the people into the hanging basket. Xiao Zhen and his comrades tirelessly transferred the trapped people back and forth.
The M911 refueled four times that day. On the fifth refueling, the engine overheated and the alarm sounded. Xiao Zhen listened to the helicopter and followed his comrades in paddling the rubber boat with a strong flashlight. Xiao Zhen used a loud speaker and said: "Fellow villagers, we are the People's Liberation Army. We are here to rescue you. Don't panic. Let the injured, the elderly, children, and pregnant women get on the rubber boat first."
Xiao Zhen and his comrades were busy until dawn that day. Xiao Zhen's voice was hoarse and he didn't know how many people they had rescued and relocated.
After the latter could no longer make any sound, Xiao Zhen's comrades continued to shout and were busy and orderly transferring.
Until Lao Qin ordered him to take a short rest, and asked him to drive the M91 to search and rescue after dawn.
Xiao Zhen found an open space at the on-site command center, took off his life jacket and slept in it.
Xiao Zhen heard the assembly call in a daze, then quickly got up, put on his life jacket, and hurried out to gather.
Arriving at the assembly point, Lao Qin began to mobilize the troops: "Comrades, please rest. I know you have been very tired from yesterday until now, but as the people's soldiers, the time has come for the Party and the people to test us. There are still trapped people in the target mission area who need to be evacuated..."
After Xiao Zhen and the random pilot checked the helicopter, they started it again, reunited with the air rescue team and set off again.
On the seventh day of the mission, the soldiers of Jinshan Base moved to another mission area, and after another ten days of intense rescue work, the mission was completed.
Xiao Zhen did not stop, and followed his Huamei helicopter rescue team to the Songhua River in Northeast China for rescue as ordered.
After Xiao Zhen arrived in the Northeast, he was assigned two crews to a single aircraft. During his rest time, Xiao Zhen joined his comrades from the brother units in reinforcing the embankment. This time, the skin on Xiao Zhen's shoulders and back was sunburned and peeled.
In this way, Xiao Zhen and his comrades were either flying helicopters to evacuate the people urgently, reinforcing the embankments, or riding speedboats to rescue and transfer the people.
Since August, Xiao Zhen received an order to return to the base and stand by. At the same time, all IKEA's storage bases opened their warehouse doors and provided free supplies to the disaster-stricken areas.
Xiao Zhen also handed over the right to allocate materials from various places to his uncle Yang's flood control headquarters.
Some IKEA stores have replenished their stocks as many as five times. What was unexpected this time was that the Northeast region was the hardest hit.
IKEA's storage base in Northeast China has replenished its stocks more than five times, and some of the stocks were not replenished in time.
Xiao Zhen asked the cargo plane of Nanyang Trade to communicate directly with his Uncle Yang and then load the supplies and airdrop them together with the cargo plane of the Air Force.
While Xiao Zhen was on the ground, he flew a helicopter to more remote areas for search and rescue. He made full use of the method of quickly closing iron cages, which played a positive role in flood control in the Songhua River and Nenjiang River.
After the military announced victory over the flood, the main force quietly evacuated by transportation in the early morning. The vehicles of some comrades who were left behind were surrounded by enthusiastic crowds and moved forward slowly.
Xiao Zhen and the Huamei Helicopter Rescue Team were temporarily stopped at a school playground in Changchun, and were also stuffed with eggs and bacon by the enthusiastic crowd.
Xiao Zhen persuaded the masses, "We are the people's soldiers. We have a rule that we won't take a single needle or thread from the masses..."
Lao Qin, who was accompanying them, saw that the crowds were gathering more and more, which was not a solution. Together with the local comrades, he finally persuaded the enthusiastic crowd to a safe distance. Xiao Zhen immediately called on the comrades from the Army Aviation to take off quickly together, and only then were they able to leave.
After following the Army Aviation's relay team to fly 20 911s back to Huamei Aerospace on Chongming Island, Xiao Zhen discussed matters with the Army Aviation's leadership.
In the evening, we entertained our comrades who had fought together in the flood control at the Paradise Hotel. That night, we sent buses from Huamei and Baixing Industrial to take our comrades from the Army Aviation Corps back to their respective bases.
Xiao Zhen and his father's Huaguang and Huasheng donated 200 million yuan to the flood relief efforts, provided more helicopters and cargo airdrop equipment, and IKEA Retail opened up to supply nearly 2.3 billion yuan of various supplies.
Xiao Zhen was happier looking at the plaques of "National Advanced Unit for Flood Control and Rescue" for Huamei Aerospace and Meiyijia Retail, which made him happier than if his financial enterprises had earned an extra 10 billion yuan.
However, Xiao Zhen asked Director Jiang for half a month's leave. His sister burst into tears when she saw the skin on her brother's back and shoulders peeling, and his mother was even more distressed.
Only his father patted his brother on the shoulder and said, "These are what your eldest brother should do. After all, he is a soldier!"
His younger brother Xiao Duo looked at his elder brother's rotten back and scabbed and broken shoulders, tears welling up in his eyes.
His grandmother felt so sad when she saw his rotten back. Isn't her genius grandson a scientist? Why did he also go to fight the flood?
"Grandma, I'm still a PLA soldier. If I put on this uniform and encounter something like this, I'll go to the front line.
"Okay, okay, it's okay now. I'll drive a large helicopter to search and rescue!" Xiao Zhen said to comfort the old lady.
His father and mother also tried to persuade the old lady. After Xiao Zhen comforted his old lady, he took a bus back to Zhenyuan.
When Dr. Kang applied ointment on his back, he asked him if it was worth it and said that he didn't have to do that.
Xiao Zhen said that since he was a Party member and a member of the People's Liberation Army, he must be at the forefront. Dr. Kang said, "You are still a 20-year-old child!"
