However, time was of the essence and the mission was important. They could only speed up!
Right now, all the soldiers on the battlefield were busy building fortifications.
Even though the wind was howling and the rain was pouring, they were still as straight as a pine tree.
“Listen, our mission is… Guard this place for 48 hours!” “Do you have the confidence to complete it?” “I promise to complete the mission!”
“I promise to complete the mission!”
“I promise to complete the mission!”
For a moment, everyone shouted.
“Very good! I believe in you! You are the soldiers led by Captain Qin! They are soldiers that I brought out! We can’t let him down!”
“If I can’t complete the mission, I’ll be the same as you guys. I won’t have the face to see him again, and I won’t have the face to wear this military uniform!”
“So, no matter what the price is! Even if you die of exhaustion or sudden death, you have to die on the dam to block the flood! Do you understand?”
Zhou Qing said to the Battle wolf.
“Understood!”
“Understood ! ”
The Battle wolf knew what Qin Yuan had just done, but now that their mission was urgent, even if they were worried, they could only suppress their worries.
All they could do now was complete the mission.
Even if they had to die, they had to complete this mission!
They could not embarra.s.s Battle wolf or Qin Yuan.
Especially Leng Feng. After seeing Qin Yuan’s actions with his own eyes, he was greatly moved!
That kind of spirit deeply touched him.
“Next, I’ll a.s.sign you tasks. You all follow the instructions and complete them!”
“Team 1, you will be responsible for loading and carrying sandbags. Squad
Seven, you will be responsible for hitting wooden stakes.”
“Bring a thousand brothers with you.”
“Move out!”
“Yes, sir!”
Following Jiang Fan’s order, some members of Team 1 carried a bunch of empty sandbags to the bottom of the dam and began to pour sand into it at a crazy speed.
The others began to hit wooden stakes on top to block the sandbags to prevent them from sliding down after being hit by the flood.
“Team 2, immediately lead the other troops to set up flood defenses around this area!”
“Yes, sir!”
After saying that, the other members of team 2 immediately walked towards the other brothers who had just come to support them.
Now that they had a lot of manpower, they were a little more relaxed. However, time was still tight. They had to complete the mission as soon as possible. For a moment, the entire dam was surrounded by many figures.
They were no heroes now.
They were just soldiers!
A pure soldier!
Wherever they were needed, they would be there.
That was all.
In other countries, almost everyone believed that the duty of a soldier was to fight on the battlefield and kill enemies for the country!
Of course, for those capitalists, being a soldier was just a job.
You don’t give me a salary and want me to go to the battlefield to kill enemies for the country and the people.
Sorry, wash up and sleep!
You’re so great. If you have the ability, go!
To them, either you give me a high salary and benefits, or I like to be a soldier and look for that kind of exciting life.
Otherwise, you have no reason to send me to the battlefield to die!
This was their purpose in becoming soldiers!
It was impossible for them to go to the forest to put out the fire and fight the flood in the disaster area!
They would proudly tell you that we are here to fight on the battlefield with guns, not to carry sandbags for you!
However, in the East, there was such a strange country.
The soldiers of this strange country knew how to fight wars, put out fires, fight floods, and save all disasters.
They received an allowance of a few hundred yuan, but they proudly did work that others were willing to do for tens of thousands.
When the country was in trouble, they would charge forward without any complaints.
They didn’t want money, and they wouldn’t even touch a needle or a thread from the common people.
When others asked them why they worked so hard, they would only tell you humbly and proudly: To serve the people!
There were more than 200 countries in the world. You definitely couldn’t find any country’s soldiers who were more stupid than them!
However, they were so silly that they were adorable! Glorious stupidity!
But they were so silly that it made one’s heart ache!
Even so, there were still many so-called public knowledge and nationalistic youths in society and on the Internet. Some even thought that they were superior and that soldiers should serve them like this. They were trying their best to refute and criticize them.
Some people thought that since you took our tax money, you had to serve us. This was your duty.
F * Ck you!
You want me to risk my life for a few hundred yuan? Ask anyone in society. Would anyone be so stupid?
You pay taxes, and they fight to protect the country. It’s only right!
But did you give them money for disaster relief and other services? They had a few hundred yuan each month. Did they need to risk their lives?
Your boss gave you so much salary and told you to die. Would you go? Are you going or not? Are you going to die or not?
Your life is your life, but their lives are not?
You have parents, children, brothers and sisters. Are they born orphans?
These people would never understand the meaning of a Chinese soldier’s existence!
They would never understand what the true mission of the Chinese soldiers was!
The torrential rain was still falling, and the flood was still wreaking havoc.
Each wave was higher than the previous, and each wave was stronger than the
previous!
The first line of defense was still being built. Everyone was desperately loading sandbags, carrying sandbags, and hitting wooden stakes to block the gap!
Thunder rumbled and the wind howled.
All the commoners shut their doors tightly at home, not daring to go out.
The people were afraid of being blown away by the wind, afraid of being washed away by the flood, afraid of being drenched by the heavy rain and catching a cold.
However, these soldiers were humans.
They were afraid.
No one was not afraid of death.
Battle wolf’s was still alright, but those brothers in the regular troops were just new recruits who had just joined the army this year.
However, when you wear this military uniform, no matter how afraid you are, you must overcome it!
Otherwise, if even they were afraid and retreated, who else could this country rely on? Could this country still exist?
They were the first and last line of defense for the motherland!
Anyone could fall, but not them!
This was the duty and mission of a soldier!
The spirit of the army that could only be nurtured on this piece of land!
The yellow flood water surged down the dam like a crazy beast, roaring crazily, wanting to break through all restraints.
“One, two, clang!”
“Again! One, two, clang!”
Rhythmic shouts came from the dam.
They shouted slogans and beat the wooden stakes with their hammers to secure them on the outside. Then, they threw sandbags into the middle of the wooden stakes and kept pressing them inward to prevent them from being torn apart by the flood!
The soldiers at the side were all tied up with safety ropes. Otherwise, they would be swept into the flood if the waves came down.
Once you entered, the terrifying flood would instantly wash you unconscious.
Time slowly pa.s.sed.
Everyone was fighting.
No time to eat!
Sleeping, no time!
They had to hold on until all the villagers in the middle and lower reaches had safely evacuated.
At this moment, not only were the members of Battle wolf performing exceptionally well, even the regular soldiers were doing their best to do what they could!
At this time, the pa.s.sion and spirit of the Chinese soldiers were everywhere. The spirit of their ancestors was still pa.s.sed down from generation to generation!
“The amount of rain is still too much!”
At this moment, Long Xiaoyun said to Zhou Qing while she was busy.
According to the amount of rain, their speed would still be unable to catch up!
“No matter what, we have to defend it, because if we can’t, the consequences are unimaginable!”
“We have to think of another way as soon as possible!”
“If Captain Qin was here, would there be a better way?
At this moment, Zhou Qing thought of Qin Yuan. In the past, as long as Qin Yuan was around, he would not have any worries because Qin Yuan could always create miracles!
However, now that Qin Yuan was seriously injured, they could onlv do their
best to stop the flood..
