Chapter 78

The soldiers used drones to scout the path ahead.

Carefully avoiding various collapsed trees.

"Captain, I see a village ahead!"

The young soldier operating the drone suddenly said.

"But the bridge ahead is broken!"

"What?"

The captain immediately rushed to the front.

Discovering that the bridge next to the cliff had been destroyed.

He stood at the edge of the cliff.

And peered down.

A strong sound of water came up.

He saw a turbulent river rushing straight down.

This is bad.

If you fall into this thing, you'll be torn to pieces.

But time waits for no one.

He decided to try the drone-carrying-people method Zhang Wen mentioned earlier.

"You all come over first, wait a moment, I'll tie myself to the drone."

Then you send me over.

And then take them over one by one.

The captain said to the young soldier.

"Captain, you go first?"

"But it's very dangerous!"

"And I don't really know how to use this thing!"

The young soldier was only 25 years old.

Very afraid of not doing it well.

The captain comforted him: "Don't worry, I'll go first, I'm willing to take the risk, what are you afraid of?"

"Are you still a soldier!"

"What did I say when I led you all on the first day?"

"Do you remember?"

The young soldier didn't hesitate and said immediately: "Since we are soldiers, from the first day we became soldiers."

"I trust you with my back."

"If there is danger, you are willing to die for us."

"Just because we are comrades, we are soldiers."

The young soldier said with some sobs.

Hearing this, the captain laughed.

And patted the young soldier's head.

"Looks like you kid did pretty well!"

"Actually remembering it so firmly!"

"Hahaha!"

"I trust you, and you must trust yourself."

The captain said, looking at the young soldier.

Afterwards, he tied himself to the drone.

"Kid!"

"Come on!"

The young soldier rubbed his eyes.

And began to operate the drone with full concentration.

The drone flew up bit by bit.

The captain's feet also left the ground.

"Sigh, sigh, sigh, sigh, sigh, sigh!"

The captain was pure army.

This was his first time flying.

He was extremely nervous.

His hands and feet kept moving around.

The young soldier saw the drone swaying left and right.

And immediately said: "Captain! Don't move!"

"Otherwise it's hard to fly!"

Hearing this, the captain immediately controlled his body tightly.

The drone slowly passed the broken bridge.

The captain looked at the turbulent river under his feet, and the cliff, and a sense of fear arose spontaneously.

However, he knew this was the most critical moment.

He forcibly suppressed his fear.

And kept his body straight and motionless.

Letting the drone carry him to the other side.

After the drone reached the other side of the cliff, it slowly descended.

The young soldier finally heaved a sigh of relief.

Operating the drone to descend.

The moment the captain's feet touched the ground.

He almost collapsed on the ground.

Fortunately, the drone was holding him, otherwise he would have collapsed on the ground.

The young soldier immediately hovered the drone.

And shouted to the other side: "Captain! Quickly get the rope off!"

Only then did the captain react.

He hurriedly took out his knife, then realized something was wrong.

And untied the rope with his hands.

After letting himself down.

He tied the rope back on.

The young soldier saw that he had safely reached the ground.

Finally he heaved a sigh of relief.

He breathed heavily and touched the handle with his hand.

Only to find that his hands were already full of sweat.

He hurriedly wiped them with his clothes, fearing that the control handle would be soaked by sweat and cause problems.

Afterwards, he hurriedly operated the drone to return.

And slowly transported the other soldiers and military doctors in the squad over.

The captain was on the other side of the cliff.

Receiving them one by one, letting them land safely.

"Okay, everyone is over, hurry up and get on the road!"

The captain counted the people.

And immediately got on the road.

The moment they saw the village.

The squad leader saw the previous scene.

"Quickly save people!"

"Save the living ones first!"

"Yes!"

The soldiers rushed up one by one.

And began to save people.

At this time.

The young soldier operating the drone suddenly saw an infrared button on the control handle.

He pressed it cautiously.

Suddenly discovering that the video transmitted back by the drone had turned into an infrared thermal imaging view.

He exclaimed: "Captain! Captain!"

He rushed to the captain's side.

"Captain, there is thermal imaging here."

The young soldier rushed to the captain's side, explaining with excitement.

"What?"

The captain asked.

He knew how important thermal imaging was.

Thermal imaging in combat, especially at night.

Can directly see the thermal radiation emitted by people.

Making it easier to find hostile targets faster.

And in disaster relief situations, it is even more critical.

It can quickly find people who are still alive.

Greatly reducing the difficulty of disaster relief.

"Quick, quickly use the drone to scan the entire village."

"And then mark it."

The captain immediately took out the paper and pen from his pocket.

And drew a simple map of the village.

The young soldier immediately sent the drone into the sky.

Searching everywhere in the entire village.

"There are still more than 40 human heat sources."

"There are 15 suspected ones."

"There are more than 60 livestock."

The young soldier said after circling around.

"Okay, then save people quickly according to this arrangement!"

The captain said.

Afterwards.

The people in the squad used thermal imaging, by checking the thermal imaging screen.

To quickly save people.

The military doctors were on standby at all times.

By nightfall.

All the rescued villagers and soldiers gathered at the entrance of the village.

Most of the people here were grandpas and grandmas.

By night, the captain naturally couldn't just leave them alone after saving them.

Naturally, he had to give them the necessary survival supplies first.

The captain and the soldiers took off their backpacks.

Taking out the supplies they brought and some supplies from Zhang Wen's containers.

Opening them, they were barrels of instant noodles, water, and some simple tents and warm sleeping bags.

The captain also carried a thermos.

He poured water into the thermos, using the drone's battery for power.

Boiling barrels of hot instant noodles.

He walked past one hungry young soldier after another, giving the steaming instant noodles to the rescued disaster victims first.

The young soldiers set up the tents and sleeping bags first.

After cleaning up, they let the rescued disaster victims move into the tents first.

Only then did the young soldiers drink their first sip of water today.

And eat their first meal today.

And in this valley, such scenes were happening everywhere.

Moreover, the road rescue department was racing against time to use quick-drying concrete to repair various roads entering the mountains and cities.

Countless volunteers from all over the country also rushed over with supplies they bought at their own expense.

In the city and in every part of the village, there were people engaged in disaster relief.

After a night of earthquake relief.

The national highway in Rongyuan Shi had been repaired quite well.

Numerous units that learned the news immediately rushed to the national highway.

To contribute their own strength to the earthquake relief.
