Chapter 902: No Looking Back, Risking Life
"Special Operations Company, Commando Team, everyone assemble!"
"Listen to my orders. Those of you who are not only children and have siblings at home, step forward!"
As soon as Qin Feng finished speaking, twenty or thirty people took a step forward and left the original team.
Qin Feng asked again: "Those who have never been married and don't have a wife or children, please step forward!"
This time, half the people took a step forward.
Qin Feng continued: "Those who have been admitted to D, take a step forward!"
Finally, seven warriors stood in front of Qin Feng.
Among them are Long Tianye, Fan Dalei, Chen Zilong, Zhao Yang and others.
Qin Feng took a deep breath and said to the seven soldiers, "Now, you will follow me to carry out a very dangerous mission. Jump into the water with sandbags to block the pipe burst!"
"Although there will be a rope tied around your waist, that rope cannot guarantee our lives."
"Once you go down, you might not be able to come out, but the people need us right now, so I hope you'll have the courage to join me in the water!"
"Yes!"
No hesitation, no question.
All seven soldiers were ready to sacrifice themselves and immediately tied themselves up with ropes.
They were prepared to split into two groups, four people in each group, and risk their lives to block the pipe leak.
This is not a swimming pool, nor is it a small pond in the wild. The huge lake has become turbulent due to heavy rainfall, and there are undercurrents surging underneath.
If you are not careful, you will be swallowed by the rapids. Even if you are a good swimmer, if you encounter this situation, you will die as long as you are swept under the undercurrent.
"Zhengwei, let me go, let me go!"
"Count me in, I'm a good swimmer!"
Those who were not selected rushed to take on this dangerous job.
Li Jiasheng was even more determined to replace Chen Zilong, on the grounds that he had been at the sea training ground and could hold his breath for a longer time.
But Chen Zilong declined with a smile, and his reasons for refusal were very sufficient.
This has nothing to do with how long you hold your breath. The water is filled with a lot of mud and sand, and choking on a mouthful of water will make you feel like swallowing a razor blade.
Therefore, letting these people who don’t have too many concerns die can prevent more people from being sad.
Anyway, he has a younger brother at home. Although he did not join the army, he can still take care of his parents in their old age.
"Qin Feng, we'll go with you."
Xu Bei and Yuan Feng were also ready to go into the water with Qin Feng.
In the end, Qin Feng agreed to let Xu Bei follow, but rejected Yuan Feng.
Because he has children, a lover, and concerns.
Yuan Feng was furious: "You don't have any family? No worries?"
Qin Feng explained: "I'm different. I was the one who came up with this idea, so I have to take the lead myself. Otherwise, wouldn't that make me a coward? Besides, you know my abilities. Neither earthquakes nor fires took my life."
"What can a mere flood do to me?"
Without saying anything more, he ordered each member of the first group to hold two sandbags and go into the water with him.
One end of the rope was tied to everyone, and the other end was tied to the stone pier behind.
At the same time, to be on the safe side, someone will be arranged to pull it.
Prevent people from choking on water, undercurrents, or exhaustion, so that they can be pulled up at any time.
At the same time, in a relatively safe area in the distance, the reporter saw this scene from afar and immediately asked the cameraman to turn the camera over.
"What are they doing?"
"Why is one person holding two sandbags with a rope tied around his waist?"
"I heard earlier that there's a breach under the dam and it could burst at any time. Are they planning to jump into the water to plug the breach?"
"Oh my God, are they trying to save their lives? It's dangerous to even stand on the dam in this situation. If they jump into the flood, they'll have to dive so deep. What if they get sucked into the undercurrent..."
Qin Feng, holding a sandbag, was the first to jump into the water.
Following closely, the rest of the people also jumped into the water one by one.
The female reporter who saw this scene couldn't help but cover her mouth with her hands.
She never imagined that these soldiers would jump into the turbulent water without hesitation, only tied with a simple safety rope.
They did this just to buy more time for the local people to evacuate.
"Take a picture, this scene must be taken!"
The rest of the working group also had red eyes.
The local area has a lot of rainfall and has experienced floods in the past, but not to this extent.
At that time, as long as the soldiers showed up, the problem would eventually be solved.
Therefore, what they interviewed and recorded at that time were all the busy and hard-working figures of the soldiers.
But this scene really gave them too much shock. Those shirtless soldiers jumped into the water with sandbags in their arms without hesitation, almost risking their lives to block the gap.
This kind of scene must be seen by everyone, so that every citizen of Yan Country knows how hard the people who protect them are fighting.
......
The water was murky, had a lot of impact, and was filled with a lot of mud and debris.
After Qin Feng went down, he felt a lot of resistance.
In addition, as the water continues to hit the dam, the reaction force will form a backflow tide.
This backflow would also pull their bodies, making the frightened people in the water unable to tell east from west, south from north, and even more unable to determine the exact location of the gap.
Qin Feng's perception and body coordination were the strongest among everyone. He felt as if there was a vortex under his feet pulling him down, so he speculated that this might be the gap.
So he tried to find a way to continue diving, and when he reached a rough location, he threw the sandbag there.
The others still couldn't figure out the exact location at this moment, and everyone was holding their breath to their limit.
Qin Feng could only find a way to guide others, find the right position, and throw the sandbag over.
The first round of operations was not very useful, and the sandbags did not fall precisely on the gaps.
Immediately afterwards, Qin Feng and others prepared to go ashore to catch their breath, and the second group of people came down.
But just as they were floating up, an accident occurred and another flood peak came.
Huge waves surged in from afar and hit the embankment heavily.
The impact was so loud that the wall made of sandbags was pushed back a little.
It was not until the people outside risked their lives to pull the rope up that it appeared, and they were shocked to find that there was no one at the other end of the rope!
"Someone was swept away by the water!"
"I'll go save you! Round two, get in the water!"
After Qin Feng got ashore, he roared.
Then, together with the second group of people, they went into the water again.
He left the task of plugging the gap to others, and he wanted to find the people who were taken away.
At this time, the water level rose again and had broken through the flood control dam made of sandbags, and was continuously flowing out.
The soldiers walking on the embankment may be washed away by the water at any time.
Now they have to quickly block the gap and evacuate everyone to a safe place, otherwise something might happen.
With Qin Feng away, Qiu Guohai became the on-site commander. As the water level continued to break through the levee, he could only carry out emergency evacuation of the soldiers in the dangerous area of the levee.
Soon, Qin Feng emerged from the water and swam towards the shore with a soldier who had fallen into a coma.
At this moment, the water seeping from the surrounding farmland began to decrease.
It seems that the pipe leakage gap under the dam has been successfully blocked...
