“Good!”

In Wang Ye’s house, a loud shout was heard, giving Wang Ye’s mother a fright. Then, she complained,”What’s good about it? Your son jumped into the flood, and you’re still shouting good?”

Wang Jian Jun hurriedly smiled apologetically.” Isn’t that exciting? And they’re safe now!””

Yes, he only cheered when he saw Wang Ye being pulled up in the replay. He was actually just as nervous before.

Especially when he saw Wang Ye jump into the flood without hesitation, his heart clenched.

If he didn’t know that Wang Ye would be able to save them safely in the end, he wouldn’t have been so calm just now.

After comforting his wife, Wang Jian Jun continued to watch TV.

When they saw the interview with Wang Ye and heard him say that he didn’t want his parents to worry, they were shocked.

Wang Jian Jun’s eyes teared up a little.

“Brat, why didn’t you think about this when you were jumping just now? Now that you’re talking about this…”

Wang Jian Jun mumbled. His expression seemed to be smiling, but his eyes were red as if sand had entered them.

Xu Xiao Feng ignored him.

Just now, Wang Ye had just finished saving people, and the scene changed.

Now, it was Wang Ye’s interview. Even though she had already watched it once, she still didn’t want to miss her son’s interview.

Although she couldn’t see her son’s face because of the mosaic on Wang Ye’s face, this didn’t affect the concern in her eyes at all.

Wang Jian Jun lit a cigarette to ease the tension in his heart and watched the interview on TV.

When she heard Wang Ye say the last sentence,”I’m scared! But he is my comrade, my platoon leader. Our lives are tied together. I must save him!”

At this moment, Wang Jian Jun shouted again,”Okay!

ini

At this moment, the pride on his face was beyond words.

These words were too well said.

Even if he wasn’t a soldier, even if he was already in his forties, when he heard Wang Ye’s words, he had the urge to go to the battlefield and become a soldier.

But it was only for a moment.

Very suddenly, his body that was originally excited to stand up suddenly froze.

Because he suddenly thought of something.

He turned his head and looked at his wife, whose eyes were still locked on the television, but the light in her eyes was unfocused. It was obvious that she was missing her son.

“Honey, why do I feel like our son is too serious about being a soldier?!” he suddenly said.”

“What about being too serious?” Xu Xiao Feng didn’t think much about it after her thoughts were interrupted. She replied in a bad mood.

H

No, I mean, don’t you think our son is too much like a soldier?”

” Nonsense. Isn’t he a soldier?” Xu Xiao Feng said agitatedly again.

After saying this, she stood up.

She was prepared to drink some water to calm herself down.

But as soon as he got up, Wang Jian Jun spoke again,””No, you misunderstood me.

I mean, we wanted our son to be a soldier for two years and come back. We just wanted him to enter the army and reform himself.

But look at him now. He doesn’t look like he’s going to be a soldier for just two years.”

” What?” Wang Jian Jun was getting more and more anxious as he spoke. The excitement and pride he had before were all gone.” Look at his actions and words just now. They are the will and thoughts of a real soldier.”

Do you think he’ll really return after two years?”

Xu Xiao Feng froze.

She stood in front of the sofa and turned around to look at her husband in shock.

Indeed, the couple had been to Wang Ye’s army before, and they had always been proud of Wang Ye’s change in the army.

However, from the beginning to the end, the husband and wife had never thought of letting their son be a soldier for the rest of his life.

They only had one child. He was wealthy and had worked hard for his entire life. He was still waiting for his son to inherit his career.

They had even discussed it after returning from Wang Ye’s army.

After Wang Ye served in the army for two years, the couple would spend another year or two grooming Wang Ye to take over and help him find a wife at the same time.

Then, the couple could retire and enjoy life.

After Wang Ye got married and had children, they could also help take care of his grandchildren…

They were imagining their futures and had even planned everything out.

but now…

“It.. It shouldn’t be…Being a soldier is very tough!” Thinking of his son’s performance just now, Xu Xiao Feng’s voice was very weak and even had a trace of anxiety as she looked at Wang Jian Jun and said this.

After all, she was a woman. She was usually swift and decisive in the company, and there were many times when she did not go back on her word.

However, when it came to her son, when it came to such matters, she still placed her backbone on her husband.

However, this question was raised by Wang Jian Jun. If he wasn’t worried, he wouldn’t have said this.

“Sigh… This brat!”

Wang Jian Jun smiled bitterly and sat down on the sofa again.

Looking at the other news images of the flood fighting and rescue on TV, he felt an inexplicable feeling in his heart at this moment.

A son that he could not lift his head up in the past had become a child that he was proud of after he was sent to the army.

But now, this son of his made him feel like he was flying a kite. It was not easy for the kite to fly into the sky, it was as if the strings were cut.

It was impossible for Wang Ye to know about his father’s worries. Moreover, he didn’t have the time to think about them now.

The heavy rain in Xi Guang continued.

It was as if the sky was leaking, and the rain did not stop for an entire day.

At the very least, it would turn into a light rain occasionally, but it would turn into a heavy rain again not long after.

Wang Ye was still in the disaster area.

The entire county in the disaster area had basically no water or electricity.

If they wanted to obtain information from the outside world, they would only be able to obtain some information from the local flood control headquarters.

Of course, Wang Ye’s appearance on television was actually a big deal, at least for the 4th Company and Wang Ye.

Therefore, the higher-ups also informed the 4th Company of this news. At the same time, they also let Wang Ye know after dinner.

However, he only knew.

Wu Jian Feng said to Wang Ye,”You were on TV this afternoon. It’s a pity that we didn’t see it. But when we get out, we can watch the replay.”

Although Wang Ye was surprised by the speed of the local television station, he didn’t think too much about it. He only asked,”Did you censor me like how we agreed?”

Then, he received a reply from Wu Jian Feng. He didn’t know either, but he should have called.

This made Wang Ye very anxious.

However, he could not care about this now.

After dinner, the 4th Company continued to join in the flood fighting and rescue work.

This time, they were not moving the people.

He carried sandbags and helped to dredge the drainage system in some areas of the county.

For the next few days, Wang Ye didn’t suffer from any of the troubles after appearing on television.

Because they were in a flood fighting environment, no one cared about this matter at all.

Or rather, where Wang Ye was, no one could see the news.

There was no water or electricity.

Moreover, Wang Ye’s current comrades were all so tired that as long as they had time to rest, no matter where they were, whether they were standing or sitting, or even eating, they would fall asleep after eating a few mouthfuls…

Under such circumstances, who was in the mood to care if Wang Ye was on TV or not?

In addition, at this time, many reporters were rushing around the disaster area.

Being on television was not a rare thing at all.

“Comrades, let me tell you a very heavy news!”

On the evening of the 4th, just as the reinforcement work on a river embankment had been completed and the 4th Company was about to retreat for dinner and rest, the instructor took advantage of this time to stand in the middle of the officers and soldiers and spoke with a heavy expression.

“1 just received the latest news. As of 7 pm tonight, there are more than 3 million people affected by the disaster in 42 counties and cities in the entire Xi Guang Province.

Among them, according to preliminary statistics, 51 people had died and 2 were missing.

In addition, more than 11,000 houses have collapsed, nearly 200 hectares of crops have been damaged, and 15 dams have been damaged…”

Everyone clenched their fists when they heard the data brought by the instructor.

“How did this happen? We were clearly already working our hardest!”Someone punched the ground.

“That’s right!”

Wang Ye felt a little powerless when he heard this voice.

He had already given it his all, but in just five days, so many people had died.

Moreover, Wang Ye knew that the true death toll might not be just 51, because this was the preliminary statistics of the current disaster.

Right now, there was chaos everywhere, and many data could not be accurately calculated.

However, no matter how many people there were, at least 51 people were confirmed dead.

He leaned against the wall of the mud pit that was dug out behind him.

Wang Ye lay there motionlessly, his eyes looking at the pitch-black sky with a little listlessness.

The rain had stopped for a day.

However, many places were still raining.

At the same time, even if the rain stopped, this disaster would not end so quickly.

The rain was still fermenting, and some of the dams that had exceeded their capacity were still struggling to hold on.

Not to mention the danger of the dam breaking, the subsequent flood discharge would also be a huge test.

To be honest, Wang Ye had never dreamed that he, who had returned to the 4th company in a good mood, would encounter such a thing.

He didn’t even have an impression of this year in his memory, but now, it left such a deep impression on Wang Ye.

“Alright, everyone, cheer up. We’ve done our best.

The people of the country have seen this, and we know it in our hearts.

In the face of great disasters, it was impossible to not sacrifice.

Just like what we said, this is a battle.

War was always accompanied by bloodshed.

What we need to do now is not to be sad. What we need to do now is to eat as soon as possible.

Tonight, our 4th Company has no mission for the time being. Eat and rest well. Only then will we be in a better condition to save more people tomorrow!”

The instructor was boosting morale. His words were short but very useful.

The soldiers, who had been grief-stricken by the news he brought, immediately went over to take the lunchboxes.

Everybody ate in big mouthfuls.

Wang Ye was also the same.

He was hungry. It was almost nine o’clock in the evening. He had eaten at one o’clock in the afternoon and had been working since then. Even if he had twice the strength of an ordinary person, he would not be able to take it.

After all, he had been doing his best.

Right now, he also needed to quickly replenish his strength and then have a good sleep.
