The raging flood was terrifying.

Weeds and clothes were floating on the turbid water, rushing towards the sandbags one after another with great momentum.

Two soldiers were sitting in horse stance, leaning their backs against sandbags, as waves mixed with rain water came one after another.

The soldier looked bitter, but still gritted his teeth.

"Oh no! The sandbags here are about to fall!"

The supporting officers were in a panic. When they heard that someone needed help, they immediately picked up sandbags and ran away.

The sandbags here were knocked over by the big waves just now, and the exposed area immediately became a drain for the accumulated water.

Once this place is washed away by the accumulated water, all previous efforts will likely be wasted.

A soldier carried a sandbag to block the gap, but his arm was scratched by the iron sheet in the water.

The soldier's arms suddenly lost strength, he yelled in pain, and the sandbag was immediately submerged by the pouring water.

His clothes were stained with blood, but he didn't care about the pain in his arm.

Crouch down and grope in the water.

"Where are the sandbags? Where are the sandbags?"

Qi Tongwei pulled him up and said, "Leave it to me. You go and take care of the wound first."

But the other party shook his head repeatedly and said, "You definitely can't handle it alone, let's do it together."

The opponent's wounds were torn open, and blood was flowing down with the rain. In this gray dawn, it looked particularly terrifying.

Another soldier also said worriedly: "Brother, why don't you go and have a rest."

Qi Tongwei picked up the sandbag from the water with one hand.

Each sandbag weighed more than 100 pounds. Qi Tongwei held the water-soaked sandbag in one hand and carried another sandbag on the other shoulder, and it was surprisingly easy.

Qi Tongwei withstood the impact of the accumulated water and blocked the gap with two sandbags. Several people breathed a sigh of relief at the same time.

But suddenly, the soldier in front of him who was supporting the sandbag with his back felt his calves go weak, his vision went dark, and he immediately knelt on the ground.

"Xiao Yan! Are you okay?"

The sandbag on his back was swaying under the impact, but Qi Tongwei did not hesitate at all and pushed it up resolutely.

No matter how the wind and rain attacked, Qi Tongwei remained unmoved.

This lasted for more than an hour, and the rain gradually became lighter, and finally turned into a drizzle.

Qi Tongwei's face was pale at this time. He had not rested for 24 hours.

Due to the continuous heavy rain, supplies were scarce, and the hot lunch boxes originally prepared for them were intercepted at the foot of the mountain during transportation.

After being delivered up through untold hardships, it was tragically washed away by the accumulated water.

Many soldiers have fainted from exhaustion, and some have been called away to rest and take turns to provide rescue services.

When Fan Tianlei rushed over, he saw Qi Tongwei with his eyes closed, standing still.

The waves on his back hit the sandbags, and after being intercepted, they unwillingly poured down on Qi Tongwei's head.

But Qi Tongwei insisted on not moving.

Fan Tianlei suddenly felt that Qi Tongwei was more hardworking than he had imagined.

"Qi Tongwei, come down and rest for a while, and let someone else take your place." Fan Tianlei said.

But looking around, all he saw were exhausted soldiers. Who could replace him?

"It's okay, I can."

Fan Tianlei sighed and said distressedly: "You haven't eaten yet? I'll bring you some food."

"No, I can't eat now."

"Captain, do you know when the flood will be released?"

Fan Tianlei shook his head. "The leaders are already communicating, and I think there will be an answer soon."

Qi Tongwei also knew that releasing floodwaters was not as simple as it sounded.

This is equivalent to distributing the accumulated water in one place to other places for drainage.

Then the areas where the flood is released are likely to be damaged again.

In the absence of a better answer, we can only choose sparsely populated areas as flood discharge areas.

Minimize losses as much as possible.

Qi Tongwei suddenly thought of the little boy who was only four or five years old, living with his grandmother, but whose fate was changed by this sudden disaster.

"Captain, how is the child?"

"Alas, he has been transferred to the city hospital. His hand is completely necrotic and needs to be amputated."

Qi Tongwei was very sad.

He is only five years old.

There is such a bright future waiting for him, but natural disasters and man-made disasters are really a nightmare for mankind!

A moment later, a young soldier came running over and said, "Lieutenant, you should take a break. I'll do it. I've just rested."

As if afraid that Qi Tongwei would worry, he also emphasized, "I am young, I recover quickly, and I have good physical strength."

Qi Tongwei didn't insist and exchanged places with him.

Immediately afterwards, Qi Tongwei picked up the sandbag and pushed it up again. Wherever there was a need, Qi Tongwei would be there.

Fan Tianlei looked at him, feeling both distressed and proud.

This is what a Xia country officer looks like!

The rain gradually stopped and the sky gradually brightened.

Several excavators cleared the obstacles on the road. The decades-old trees could have grown into good timber, but they became obstacles that everyone hated.

The road had just been cleared and a line of cars that had been waiting for a long time drove straight towards us.

They brought some steamed buns and pickles and distributed them to the soldiers who had been busy all night.

Qi Tongwei took the steamed bun and sat on the ground, feeling exhausted.

This is truly high intensity, and is completely different from previous training.

Although he had not yet reached his physical limit, he was already exhausted and panting.

Looking at the snow-white steamed buns, the desire to eat them was imminent, but his hands seemed to be out of control, and he brought them to his mouth slowly and mechanically.

He wolfed down three steamed buns, choking so much that he patted his chest and stretched his neck.

Just as I recovered a little, I heard someone shouting, "Oh no! My child fell into the water!"

Qi Tongwei immediately put down his food and rushed over first.

"Sister, please don't worry. Where did the child fall?"

The woman was both scared and anxious. She opened her mouth and screamed for a long time, pointing at the pile of sandbags and jumping in panic.

"The child fell into the water?"

He immediately used thermal imaging skills and saw a child splashing in the water ten meters away.

He said "Don't worry" and then jumped into the water.

The two people who arrived later only saw a figure jumping into the water.

Qi Tongwei swam over in a few seconds, grabbed the child's clothes, and lifted his head out of the water.

The child coughed violently a few times and tossed and turned in his sleep using his hands and feet.

"Help, help!"

"Don't move, I'm here to save you."

The child looked seven or eight years old. After hearing the sound, he gradually calmed down.

Qi Tongwei quickly swam back to the shore, and two soldiers carried the child up.

The woman was so frightened that she hugged her child tightly, tears streaming down her face.

"You scared me to death. I told you not to go this way, why didn't you listen?"

The woman wiped her tears and sincerely thanked Qi Tongwei over and over again.

Qi Tongwei half-knelt down and took the child's hand: "Promise uncle that you won't play by the water, okay?"

"The water is too deep, you could be in danger."

The little girl lowered her head in fear, "But the family photo is gone."
