Chapter 938: Rescue on the Road

Li Yi frowned and sat in a car, listening to the radio. This car was a passenger bus or a minibus. They were all people rushing to the disaster area. These people were all going to rescue, the kind of spontaneous organization. , followed by several trucks, all of which were filled with instant noodles, snacks and the like.

This group of people were originally part of a rescue team. Later, the rescue team was disbanded. It was the kind of idle rescue team in the scenic area. Once there were fewer people, it would be difficult to do business in the scenic area. No one went to visit the river, so they naturally There was no income, but when they heard that such a serious flood happened in Danzhou next door, of course they responded immediately.

We are all compatriots from the same province, how can we ignore death?

So in a hurry, I asked for money from my own pocket, bought two cars of food and drinks, and then rented a minibus. A total of more than 20 people headed to the disaster area in a mighty manner.

Li Yi saw the banner they posted and organized the rescue voluntarily. They were recruiting people at the time. He was standing in the most conspicuous labor market. Li Yi, who had just stepped off the plane and planned to find a car to go to Danzhou, naturally took a ride. He was just a free ride. He was going to Danzhou to help anyway, so it would be better if they were with him.

"Currently, the rescue work is being carried out in an orderly manner. All officers and soldiers in the city are doing their best to withstand the pressure on the river dam. However, the shortcomings of insufficient rescue forces in the city are gradually becoming apparent..."

"The neighboring cities of Tianquan and Hezhou have mobilized a group of rescue forces and are rushing to the disaster area. According to reporters' on-site reports, the amount of precipitation this time is the most unbelievable since the founding of the People's Republic of China..."

"The footage uploaded from the helicopter in front of us shows that almost 70% of the entire Danzhou has been submerged by floods. The deepest point is about two meters, and the average water level is 150 centimeters..."

Listening to the voice coming from the minibus radio, Li Yi's face gradually became more serious.

This situation does not sound optimistic, especially since the rescue force is insufficient. I don’t know how many people are still trapped in the entire Danzhou City. Maybe the situation is already very dangerous!

The atmosphere inside the minibus was also very serious. At this moment, a middle-aged man with gray temples, sitting behind the driver, turned around and said to everyone: "In the current situation, I don't need to say that everyone should Everyone understands that this time it’s not just a little fight! It’s all serious!”

"Our Henshui River rescue team has been disbanded for nearly five years. We didn't have to come here because we are not real fire officers and soldiers, but we are all from the Dragon Kingdom! We don't have much money on us, and we don't even have supplies. All the money is tied up with the capital, which others may not know or care about, but if we can save one person, we will do our best to save one person!”

No one had any intention of shrinking back. Li Yi carefully observed that there were twenty-two people in the car besides himself, some old and some young. The oldest middle-aged man looked to be in his forties, and the rest were all in the car. They were in their thirties, and there were several young people in their twenties. Their faces had heavy expressions, and they could express a bit of nervousness from time to time. It was obviously their first time encountering such a situation.

The middle-aged man said in a deep voice: "Although we are going to save people and what we are doing is a good thing, we can't risk our lives rashly. Everyone has their own families to support, so we can't just do it casually. do not care!"

"For those of you who have no experience, there is no need to be nervous. Although we old guys are not flexible in our legs and feet, we still have some skills. I heard that our Henshui River here in Tianquan is about to open again, and you are all rushing to the rescue team. We all understand this, so I can rest assured that I will leave it to you!”

The few young people nodded one after another. They were all going to the scenic spot that was about to open in Tianquan. Although the job of the scenic spot rescue team did not have a high salary, it was relatively good. It is also a relatively stable job.

Li Yi sat in the last row, closing his eyes and falling asleep. In fact, he couldn't fall asleep at all, because the situation there was so worrying.

At this time, someone came and sat down next to Li Yi. Li Yi subconsciously opened his eyes. It was the middle-aged man who just spoke.

"Young man, aren't you from Danzhou?

You don't look like you're from Tianquan, why did you come with us? "

Li Yi smiled politely and said: "I am a businessman and I also got a batch of supplies from my hometown. Don't I want to come here first to see how the supplies should be handled?

And I have a friend who is also in Danzhou, and there is also a branch in Danzhou. I was really worried, so I came over to have a look..."

Hearing this, the middle-aged man suddenly understood, nodded, and said: "My name is Li Changchun. I am from the rescue team of the scenic spot in Tianquan. I have been running a car repair shop in the past few years."

Li Yi frowned and said, "My name is Li Yi. What do you mean, have floods like this happened before?"

Li Changchun sighed and said: "It happens every year. Danzhou is a place with a lower terrain than our Tianquan. It is easy for water accumulation and the like to happen. There are also incidents of dykes bursting, but this time it is It’s a once-in-a-century situation that’s just out of control!”

"I have an old friend who works as a firefighter here, but ever since I found out about this, I haven't been able to contact him at all! He must have been extremely busy!"

Li Yi nodded and said in a deep voice: "In that case, most of the rescue forces should be at the place where the embankment burst. Have you decided where to go first?"

Hearing this, Li Changchun said in a deep voice: "We plan to go directly to the river and distribute the supplies first, and then a few of us will take the equipment and go to the city to take a look. Most of the people are in the city. Their safety is a problem. There should be no need to worry now. After all, high-rise buildings are relatively sturdy. We will focus on the suburbs, which are all small houses and poor families. There is a large area of ​​the old city where all are old two-story buildings. These places are most likely to have trouble! "

Hearing this sentence, Li Yi immediately realized the seriousness of the problem.

The old town of Danzhou is adjacent to the newly built Lianhua Plaza. Because part of the old town has been demolished and a new commercial street is being built, Lianhua Plaza was chosen at the junction of the old town and the central area!

"Then I'll go with you, lend a hand, and see if I can find my friend!"

Li Changchun had no reason to refuse, so he nodded and agreed directly.

"Don't be impulsive, take your time, maybe we can help find your friends!"

Of course, impulsiveness would not happen to Li Yi, but he still nodded.
