Chapter 38 wildfire

That mountain fire had never happened in decades, and the troops were ordered to march into the mountain late at night. As the news officer of the division, Liu Dong immediately went to the front line of fire fighting with the troops.The police communication company of the division agency has not received the order to fight the fire, and they stand by on the spot.Looking at the military vehicles passing by one after another, Tian Cun felt as uncomfortable as a cat biting a dog.A soldier in peacetime is waiting for this moment to dedicate himself to the country and realize his heroic dream.Seeing the brother company rushing to the front line of disaster relief in full armor in solemn solemnity, Tamura and his soldiers could only watch helplessly.

The fire alarm kept coming, and those who stayed behind in the division seemed to be able to smell the burnt smell of the mountain fire, as well as the scorching flames. At noon, the cafeteria opened on time. For some reason, all the soldiers did not move their chopsticks, and just quietly looked at the food on the table.When Tamura walked into the cafeteria, he noticed this atmosphere. He glanced at the cafeteria and said loudly: What's the matter? What's the matter with you? No one answered his words, he walked past each table, and in an instant, he was moved by these soldiers, who were asking him to fight in a hunger strike.The company commander is on vacation, and he is acting as the deputy company commander now. He is the highest military officer of the police and company.More than a hundred pairs of eyes were looking at him in unison, and he was also staring at the soldiers in front of him.

A platoon leader stood up and said: Company commander, why don't you let us go to the front line?Let's fight. The soldiers shouted together: Let's fight. Another veteran stood up and said, "Smell the smell. The fire has reached our door. We don't have the heart to eat." The circles of Tamura's eyes were red. To tell the truth, he was more anxious than these comrades. He saw others rushing to the front line to fight the fire one after another.The sea of ​​fire is the battlefield, what an exciting moment that is, fighting with the wildfire is also a life-and-death battle.

The atmosphere of the soldiers begging for battle in front of him infected him. He ordered the secretary of the company department to bring some sets of hairdressing tools. He was the first to sit on the chair and said to the secretary: "Shave all my hair off."Then he said to those soldiers: Those who want to go to the front line of firefighting, line up for a haircut. Soldiers scrambled to line up in front of him. In the afternoon, more than 100 officers and soldiers of the police company stood neatly in front of the division gate, holding hats in their hands, and their bare scalps shone brightly in the bright sun.The people who stayed behind all looked at them with strange eyes, and the one standing in front of the queue was the acting company commander Tamura.

A military off-road vehicle came back from the courtyard. After the vehicle passed quickly in front of the queue, it suddenly stopped with a sudden brake.The car door opened, and the teacher got out of the car.He gave the team a majestic look, his eyes fell on Tamura's face, and he said in a low but angry voice: Whose idea is this? Tian Cun stepped out of the queue, took a step forward and said, "Master, the Police Company is asking you to fight." The soldiers in the team also shouted together: Let's fight! Master Liu glanced at these bald soldiers, and he saw a kind of desire and anxiety in their eyes.He didn't say anything, turned and left.After a while, several military vehicles rumbled to the queue of the police communication company, and the leading officer shouted loudly at Tian Cun: "Company Commander Tian, ​​why are you still standing there?"get in the car!

The soldiers climbed onto the truck amid cheers, followed by the division hospital convoy. The division commander came back from the front line and arranged for the division hospital to go to the front line for fire fighting. The wounded have been carried down one after another.When they arrived at the front line of fire fighting, people realized that the mountain fire was bigger than they expected, with a radius of hundreds of kilometers, not only soldiers from the 13th Division, but also soldiers from other fraternal units.Afterwards, they learned that in order to put out the fire, the military region had mobilized the strength of three group armies.

The ravages of wildfires are more tragic than wars. Looking from a distance, there are raging flames everywhere. The sound of fire is like thunder rolling across the sky, and the air is filled with a scorching smell. The task of the police communication company is to cover the division hospital and rescue the wounded.The hospital became a veritable field hospital. As soon as the tents were set up, the wounded were brought over one after another, and the fire was followed. They could only carry the wounded and rushed out.The dean of the division hospital immediately divided the division hospital into several temporary rescue teams in order to rescue the wounded as soon as possible.So, several teams rushed to different ambulance places immediately.

Shi Lan was assigned to a team of five, including two doctors and three nurses. A squad from the police communication company was assigned to this rescue team, and they were responsible for rescuing and transporting the wounded. When Shi Lan got into the sea of ​​fire to look for rescue targets, she realized that she had been separated from the rescue team.There are fierce wildfires everywhere, and there are fire fighters everywhere. She doesn't feel lonely in it. Everywhere she goes, she tries to shout: Do you have any wounded here?Where are the wounded? A soldier stretched out a pair of burned hands, and she hurriedly bandaged them.Someone's leg was cut by a branch, and she hurriedly wrapped it with a first aid belt, but no one was willing to go to the line of fire.They didn't say a word, and used their bodies and hands to block the wildfire.

Shi Lan ran from here to there, and rushed to the place where the fire was the fiercest. She knew that the wounded there needed her more.Just as she was scrambling left and right, she ran into Tamura.Tian Cun's face was blackened, his clothes were still smoking, and only his teeth were white. He was chasing a raging fire dragon with his soldiers. When Shi Lan came over, he also saw her.Shi Lan handed over her mask, and Tian Cun took it, patted her on the shoulder, and said: I found that you are making rapid progress, and you are about to become a real warrior. Shi Lan didn't want to joke with him at this time, so she said to him: "Who is injured here?"

Without looking back, Tamura said: No, you can look elsewhere. Shi Lan turned around and ran towards another sea of ​​flames. Tamura shouted loudly behind her: Shi Lan, be careful-- Shi Lan didn't know what to answer, but her voice was swallowed by the sound of fire and wind. None of them thought that this hasty meeting would be their farewell forever. Liu Dong was surrounded by wildfires.He is a news officer, and he hangs out wherever the fire is the fiercest.With a camera hanging on his chest and an interview book in his hand, he shuttled through the sea of ​​flames alone, using the camera to record scenes of touching scenes of risking his life.

When he went deep into the flames alone, he was swept into the flames by a burst of flames.At that moment, he experienced the word "sea of ​​fire" for the first time, and he was instantly enveloped in flames. He subconsciously touched the camera hanging around his neck, took off his shirt, and wrapped it around his hot body. Camera and interview with Ben, climb up a tree.The fire quickly ignited the tree, and he could only lift the package in his hand as hard as he could. It was at this critical moment that Tian Cun found Liu Dong who was besieged by the flames.He yelled: Liu Dong, hold on.After finishing speaking, he rushed towards the sea of ​​flames, followed by two soldiers behind him. Liu Dong was already in danger, the flames that jumped up to the top of the tree burned Liu Dong's body, and the tree was already crumbling.Just as Tian Cun rushed over with the soldiers, Liu Dong and the tree fell down.Liu Dong fainted. Tian Cun picked up Liu Dong and rushed towards Huo Haihai together with the soldiers who came with him.He couldn't care less, he only had one thought, to save Liu Dong.He ran towards the fire, and a wave of heat rushed over his head and face. He had nowhere to hide. He felt his eyes go dark, and then his eyes felt a burning pain, leaving only a thick fog in front of him.He didn't stop, dragged Liu Dong and ran forward, fell down, got up, staggered and continued to run forward, and finally rushed out of the flames. When Tian Cun and Liu Dong were sent to the field hospital, Tian Cun did not know that Shi Lan had died. Shi Lan rushed out of the sea of ​​flames with the wounded on her back. When she was evacuating to a safe area, she encountered a resurgent mountain fire and was trapped in a ravine.She rushed left and right with the wounded on her back, and was finally swallowed by the wildfire. When people found Shi Lan, the wounded were still under her body, and at the last moment, she seemed to want to use her body to cover the wounded.People can no longer identify their bodies, but their identities can only be identified from the remaining relics. Tian Cun was living in the hospital when he heard the news of Shi Lan's sacrifice.His eyes were burned, and gauze was wrapped around his eyes and head.When people carried Shi Lan's body back, he groped and hugged Shi Lan, muttering in his mouth.The setting sun stretched his shadow very long, he murmured farewell to his lover, no one knew what he said.Suddenly, under the astonished eyes of everyone, he tore off the gauze from his eyes, crying and shouting: Shi Lan, let me take another look at you, why can't I see you—— His sad and helpless screams echoed in people's eardrums for a long time. Later, Tamura was admitted to the General Hospital of the Military Region. The ophthalmologist concluded that his cornea was burned, and his existing vision was only 0.1.To restore vision, the cornea must be replaced. Liu Dong's injury was not serious, only mild burns, and he was discharged from the hospital soon.But after he knew about Tamura's situation, he felt extremely heavy.
