Chapter 549： The flag fluttering in the wind and rain

Beside some collapsed houses, ragged parents are very anxious, shouting to the children trapped in the house to make them hold on.

Looking around, people are scattered everywhere in the town.

The usually vibrant town with tens of thousands of people is now full of chaos.

They are at a loss, do not know how to deal with disasters, what should they do?

In the face of floods and natural disasters, how small and humble manpower is!

In front of the ruins of a broken school, an old teacher picked up his textbook from the ground.

Today, it should be his last class before retirement. He is full of awe and emotion for this profession.

But a flood struck and broke everything, the school collapsed, and the classrooms turned into rubble.

Even the textbook in his hand was soaked by the flood, and half of it was gone.

Boom.

The old teacher sat on the ground with a desperate and depressed face, crying bitterly as he watched the past paradise turn into rubble.

Suddenly, a bright red floated in front of him, which made him stunned.

The school flagpole collapsed long ago. Where did the red flag come from?

Thinking he was wrong, he stood up slowly while supporting the stone next to him, took off his glasses and rubbed it, then put it back on and looked over.

Not far away on the hillside, sure enough, a bright red flag was waving in the wind, clearly visible.

The old teacher was taken aback, but the next scene surprised him even more.

Under the bright red flag, a pair of soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms appeared, and gradually occupied the entire hillside opposite.

It was like a scene of tens of thousands of horses galloping, and the banner sailing against the wind and rain seemed to rush towards them with unprecedented hope.

"Military flag? That's a military flag!"

The old teacher was so excited, tears burst into his eyes instantly.

Standing tremblingly, he straightened his body. He exhausted all his strength and shouted in a hoarse voice: "The troops are here, it is the country's troops! We are saved, folks, we are saved..."

Shouting and shouting, the old teacher couldn't stop crying.

But this.

It is tears of joy and excitement, but also tears of hope!

Hearing his voice from a distance, the residents of the nearby town were stunned, looking towards the opposite mountain.

When they saw the endless camouflage uniforms and the military flags flying in the wind and rain, everyone couldn't stop crying.

"It's really a troop!"

"Our troops are here!"

"Haha, it's saved! The troops came to save us!"

At this moment, everyone was cheering and shouting.

"Don't be afraid, children, hold on, the uncle soldier is here! I believe they will come to rescue you soon, you must hold on, don't give up..."

Next to the collapsed house, the two parents were very excited and encouraged their children.

The news spreads ten times, ten thousand times.

Soon, the whole town was boiling.

The arrival of troops is to bring them the greatest hope.

In the magical land of Long Country, no matter how many natural disasters occur, how difficult it is.

They must be the first to appear, no matter how desperate they are, as long as they see the flying flags and troops, they all symbolize hope.

The people's ranks must be fully trusted by the people!

This is impossible in any country in the world.

Perhaps, they are usually unknown and no one pays attention.

But as long as the country needs it, it must be them who stand at the forefront of the masses.

You don't need to remember their names, just know that they are the people's army.

In today's peaceful and prosperous world, they are the country's most shining stars!

Lu Yu led a large army and quickly rushed into the town.

Standing on the heights of the ruins, Lu Yu shouted: "From now on, the teams will be led by their respective captains to disperse. If you see the fellow townspeople who need help or are trapped, please help solve them immediately! Give you half an hour to clear out the town. Rescued the victims."

"Yes!" everyone roared and scattered.

Lu Yu looked around: "Who is the mayor?"

"I am! I am the mayor, I am here..."

Immediately, a voice came from the side, and a middle-aged man came running over, panting.

Lu Yu glanced at him and jumped off the stone: "Are you the mayor? You need to follow my orders next!"

The other party nodded repeatedly, and grabbed Lu Yu's hand excitedly: "Chief, are you finally here? The people in our town have been trapped for three days. There is no food or drink. If no one cares, we can't support it. Going down, I thank you on behalf of the folks..."

"Okay, you are too kind."

Lu Yu hurriedly said: "Now, listen to me three things, you must do it for me, I can save you all."

The mayor immediately became serious: "The chief, you said, as long as I can save everyone, I will do it!"

Lu Yu calmly analyzed: "I received the news when I came. In less than three hours, this place will face a second round of flood peaks. If it is washed away again, everyone here will be in great danger."

what!

The mayor's complexion changed drastically, his face was full of horror.

The previous round of flood peak crossing had already caused heavy losses in their town. He will never forget that scene in his life.

If another flood strikes, God knows what will happen?

The entire town was turned into rubble, and there was no place to hide. Tens of thousands of villagers might be washed away by water.

Lu Yu looked at him solemnly: "Now, time will be very fast, so the first thing you must do is to gather the people in the town as soon as possible and give them food! The second thing is to help me evacuate, I'm here. When passing through a highland, the terrain is so high that the flood should not be able to flood it. You temporarily hide there."

While talking, point to the route of coming.

"My people will help you, but you must also help us publicize. We all work together to protect the elderly, women and children first, and transfer everything that does not fall to safety!"

"Chief, don't worry, even if you give up this old life, I will do it!" The mayor nodded vigorously.

"It's not that serious. It's just for you to publicize and leave the desperate thing to our soldiers."

Lu Yu nodded slightly: "In addition one last thing, I would like to ask you a question, where is your dam here?"

The mayor said: "The dam is just upstream, about seven or eight kilometers away from our town..."

He specified the location of the dam for Lu Yu in detail.

Lu Yu noted the direction and nodded.

Time brooks no delay. Lu Yu didn't want to delay too much, so he handed over the command of the transfer of the townspeople to He Zhijun.

He himself took He Chenguang, Wang Yanbing, and other hundreds of people from the a brigade and rushed towards the upstream dam.

In fact, Lu Yu was uncertain whether it would be useful to take multiple people.

But in the face of natural disasters, there are too many people and few people, so it doesn't matter much.

In the face of the monstrous ferocious flood, the power of mankind is so small that it can be ignored.

He can only ensure sufficient strength as much as possible, and then... do his best to obey the fate!
