Thunder and lightning, torrential rain. Qiao Hong got off a taxi and hurried to the hospital. In the ward, Xiao Mingliang, Lu Tao and several cadres were talking to the doctor around the bed. Qiao Hong opened the door and walked straight to the bed. Her voice was choked and she said, "What is the disease?" Lu Tao: "Don't worry, it might be malaria." Qiao Hong bent down and touched Haiying's head. Lu Tao: "The fever has subsided, so it's not a big problem." Qiao Hong: "How can you get malaria?" Xiao Mingliang: "Qingjiang is an area with a high incidence of malaria. Mosquito bites can also cause infection. Soldiers take medicine every day. Haiying may have ignored it in his hurry to go up the mountain."

Lu Tao's cell phone rang, and he hid aside to answer the call, listening, his expression changed.He hung up the phone and walked back to Xiao Mingliang, and said softly to Xiao Mingliang, "Political Commissar, the city asked us to rush over to hold an emergency meeting. Hong Feng is ahead of schedule." Xiao Mingliang nodded, and the group bid farewell to Qiao Hong and left in a hurry. Qiao Hong bent down and called softly in Haiying's ear: "Haiying, Haiying." Yu Haiying slowly opened his eyes. Qiao Hong: "How do you feel now?" Yu Haiying smiled and said, "It's okay, I just fell asleep."

"You've finally woken up!" Qiao Hong took Yu Haiying's hand, two crystal clear tears gushed out of her eyes. Yu Haiying: "How is your loan going?" Yu Haiying's words made Qiao Hong even more sad and burst into tears. Yu Haiying comforted: "Then don't run away, be careful if you move your tires." A flash of lightning pierced the night sky outside the window, casting pale light on their faces, and then a thunderstorm shut down the electricity in the hospital. Yu Haiying got out of bed, walked to the window, and listened thoughtfully to the rolling thunder, one after another.

It was raining heavily, and Xiao Mingliang accompanied Chen Ran and others to run out of the rain and get into the tent of the flood fighting and rescue headquarters set up on the embankment. The tent was very busy, and Lu Tao was holding up the phone to get angry: "Zhang Wu, what happened last time is not over yet, I can't forgive you if something happens again this time." After finishing speaking, Lu Tao hung up the phone heavily, walked to Xiao Mingliang and Chen Ran, and said, "Qingjiang Prison has been hit by floods, Zhang Wu is urgent!" Chen Ran: "Qingjiang Prison is an old cell, which has been in disrepair for a long time. With such heavy rain, there may be serious problems."

Xiao Mingliang: "Lao Lu, are you considering adding troops to Qingjiang?" Lu Tao: "You don't have enough soldiers on the embankment, where else can I go to transfer them? Well, I'll go there first and check the situation before making a decision." Said that Lu Tao was about to leave, but was stopped by Xiao Mingliang: "Old Lu, you can't leave, you have to coordinate many things in the city." Several people were at a loss when Yu Haiying's voice came from behind: "Why don't you think of me, we still have soldiers on our farm." Everyone turned around, not knowing when Yu Haiying had already entered.

Xiao Mingliang: "Haiying, you haven't recovered from your illness, what are you doing here?" Yu Haiying: "It's enough to lie down for a few days with a headache and brain fever, why is it so delicate?" Lu Tao: "Yu Haiying, you go back to me." Yu Haiying: "Where are you going? I'm going back to Qingjiang. I talked to Zhang Wu on the phone. His side is very critical. I just came back from Qingjiang, so I'm familiar with the situation." Xiao Mingliang and Lu Tao looked at each other, feeling very embarrassed. Thunder and lightning, violent wind and rain.

The alarm bell of Qingjiang Prison rang suddenly. The heavily armed officers and soldiers quickly ran out of the dormitory and surrounded the prison cell tightly. A prison guard stood on the commanding heights and shouted with a loudspeaker: "You must calm down, don't be used by bad guys, the government will not ignore you..." The shouts of prisoners in the prison continued. A command vehicle and a troop carrier drove into the yard, braked suddenly, and Yu Haiying jumped off. He arrived with the farm's reinforcements. Zhang Wu came to report. The warden also greeted him and introduced the dangerous situation of the prison to Yu Haiying. Yu Haiying, Zhang Wu and the warden walked through the long corridor while talking.All the prisoners in the prison flocked to the door, shaking the iron door vigorously and shouting.

Yu Haiying's expression was grim, and he said decisively to Zhang Wu: "Take me to the commanding heights." Yu Haiying went to the commanding heights of the prison to observe for a while, and then gave orders to Zhang Wu: "Turn on the searchlight and pull the bolt." Zhang Wu was conveying Yu Haiying's order with the walkie-talkie. In an instant, the searchlights suddenly turned on and swept across the courtyard. The light was dazzling and dizzying.Immediately afterwards, the sound of soldiers pulling the bolt of the gun sounded around the prison wall. The prisoner was shocked, and the prison suddenly fell silent.

Only then did Yu Haiying heave a sigh of relief, but at this moment, a gust of wind hit and almost threw him off the wall.As soon as he squatted down, there was a loud bang in the distance. Yu Haiying ran away, he knew something might have happened. Soon, a sentry called from the intercom: "Report, report, the wall in the backyard has fallen." The warden and Yu Haiying were shocked, and everyone ran to the backyard immediately. The strong wind tore a gap of more than ten meters in the prison wall! A group of heavily armed soldiers rushed towards the collapsed wall, followed closely by Yu Haiying, the warden, and Zhang Wu. Under the illumination of the searchlight, a large gap was exposed in the wall. The soldiers ran to the gap, at a loss .

The warden: "It's the middle of the night, and the rain is so heavy, it's impossible to repair the wall." Zhang Wu: "Is it okay to pull the barbed wire?" Warden: "I don't have so many barbed wires at hand now!" After finishing speaking, the warden and Zhang Wu turned their attention to Haiying. Yu Haiying pondered for a moment, and then boldly issued an order: "Zhang Wu, organize a human wall immediately, and let the comrades persist until dawn." Zhang Wu responded loudly: "Yes!" The prisoners also know that the prison wall has been blown down by the wind, and the restless prisoners are plotting an escape plan.

At the darkest moment before dawn, a few criminals sneaked out of the cell surreptitiously, and looked around the corner. A beam of searchlights swept across the wall, and the criminal was shocked by the scene before him. At the gap, soldiers wearing steel helmets and holding steel guns stood in waist-deep water, forming a human wall. The prisoners winked at each other and were about to retreat, but Zhang Wu yelled, scaring them. The light from the flashlight made the prisoner unable to open his eyes. Lin Ashan and several soldiers rushed forward to subdue them.Yu Haiying, the warden and two prison guards also rushed over. Prison Warden: "If you escape from prison, you will be charged with a higher crime. Find out which prison number they belong to, and what are their names?" A prison guard shines a flashlight in the prisoner's face. Prison guard: "He Ziqiang, Yang Kai, and Du Hai from the third cell." Yu Haiying repeated involuntarily: "Du Hai?" Du Hai's face was suddenly illuminated by the light of several flashlights, and Yu Haiying saw that it was indeed Du Hai who hit Lin Ah Shui with his car. The warden added: "It's the Du Hai who killed your soldier." Yu Haiying looked at Du Hai in surprise, and looked at Zhang Wu speechlessly. Lin Ashan stared at Du Hai with wide eyes. Yu Haiying: "What a coincidence." Prison Warden: "It turned out that he was detained in Jinlan Prison. He was transferred to us in fear that the soldiers over there would recognize him. Unexpectedly, you ran into him." Zhang Wu gritted his teeth, and said viciously: "Okay! Then we really have a narrow road to enemies!" Du Hai glanced at him, then lowered his head in fear. Warden: "Put them in the brig." Soldiers escorted several prisoners away. In the meeting room of the detachment, Lu Tao and the relevant military leaders were watching the video of the storm hitting Qingjiang on TV. Chen Ran walked up to the screen and said, "Yesterday was a thrilling night, and I finally got through it. But greater difficulties are yet to come. From the perspective of the whole city, the impact of this storm is not great, but due to the excessive rainfall, The precipitation in the Qingjiang, Taojiang and Yangjiang basins has exceeded the highest record in history. The situation may continue to deteriorate in the next few days. Therefore, I fully agree with the plan proposed by Yu Haiying from the front line to transfer the prisoners in Qingjiang Prison and at the same time Prisoners in Yangjiang Prison and Taojiang Prison in the hardest-hit areas will also be safely transferred. Comrades, this is a big move, and the Municipal Committee and the Municipal Committee have asked us to ensure that none of the prisoners can die, one can’t run away, and one can’t be lost.” Late at night, the City Hall building was brightly lit. Outside the headquarters, an off-road vehicle braked to a sudden stop, and Qin, the deputy chief of staff of the detachment, jumped out of the vehicle and ran towards the building. Lu Tao and Chen Ran were talking at the door, when they saw him ask quickly, "Deputy Chief of Staff Qin, have you found the way?" Deputy Chief of Staff Qin: "Several roads have been cut off, and cars cannot pass at all." Lu Tao: "There is no way at all?" Deputy Chief of Staff Qin: "The reinforcements will definitely be hard to get through. The only way is to inform Field Chief Yu that they will take a detour along the Qingjiang River, cross the Taojiang Bridge, and enter a safe zone." Chen Ran: "In this case, how far will Yu Haiying and the others have to circle?" Deputy Chief of Staff Qin: "About 125 kilometers." Lu Tao: "No, no, he doesn't have enough troops in the first place, and it's too unsafe to escort 850 prisoners around such a big detour." Xiao Mingliang interjected: "However, it's more dangerous to stay surrounded by the flood!" In Qingjiang Prison, the rain is still falling. Pointing to another point on the map, the warden said: "From Qingjiang to Taojiang Bridge, on the way we have to cross a corn field about one kilometer twice, cross a small bridge five times, and sleep in the open for one night on the way. 850 Prisoners, and there are many serious criminals, you only have these dozens of soldiers, what if there is a riot on the way? And tomorrow is August 15th, what should you do if the prisoners lose control of their emotions? And..." Yu Haiying: "What else?" Prison Warden: "Chief of Staff, I found that since the soldiers recognized Du Hai, everyone became more emotional. To be honest, I can understand the soldiers' feelings, but I'm afraid that some soldiers... " Yu Haiying: "I understand." As he spoke, he threw the pen in his hand on the map, and turned his head to look at the security zone behind him. In the security zone, there were dark crowds of prisoners, surrounded by heavily guarded soldiers, and the prison guards were counting the number of prisoners. A prison guard came to report: "The warden! When we counted the number just now, we found that He Ziqiang and Du Hai had disappeared." The warden was startled and looked at Yu Haiying. Yu Haiying: "If you can't run, you must still be in prison!" The prison cell was soaked with sewage poured down, and there were excrement, dead rats, vegetable leaves and other dirty things floating on the water. Yu Haiying and the prison guards waded across the water with the mobile team and searched the cells one by one. They found Du Hai in a dilapidated warehouse.Due to the low terrain, the water inside had already reached his waist. Du Hai climbed on the beam, holding an iron rod tightly in his hand. Zhang Wu, Lin Ashan and two soldiers stood at the door holding their guns. Zhang Wu sternly shouted: "Tell you Du Hai, if you don't come down again, I'll lock the door. It's God's will to drown you, lest you come out and hit people again!" Lin Ashan stared at Du Hai angrily. Du Hai held the iron rod and refused to come down. Zhang Wu scolded: "Okay! Just stay inside!" As he was about to lock the door of the warehouse, Yu Haiying suddenly yelled behind him: "Zhang Wu, what are you doing?" He rushed over and pushed the door open. Zhang Wu: "This bastard, he can't come out from hiding on the top, and he wants to wait for us to bring him eight sedan chairs to carry him." Du Hai held the iron rod in his hand, trembling all over. Yu Haiying glanced at the beam, then turned his head and said to his back, "Everyone, put down your guns." Lin Ashan reluctantly put down the gun. Yu Haiying: "Du Hai, come down, I guarantee your safety. This house has been soaked in water for a long time, and it may collapse at any time." Du Hai: "I won't go down! I'd rather die here than let you kill me in the wilderness." Yu Haiying: "Don't think wildly, and don't listen to rumors. We have guns in our hands. Do we have to run so far to kill you? But we are law enforcement forces and we act according to the law. The transfer is for your safety." Du Hai: "I..." Yu Haiying: "Du Hai, there are still many doubts in your case. Do you want to die so vaguely? To tell you the truth, if you want to die, I can't let you die." Du Hai seemed to be touched by Yu Haiying's words. He loosened his hand, and the iron rod fell, and he also fell from it, splashing huge water. Several soldiers rushed towards Du Hai while dripping with water. When the soldiers carried Du Hai out of the warehouse, it was already dark. As soon as Du Hai went out, he sat down on the ground, hugged his feet and moaned. Zhang Wu reprimanded: "What are you pretending to be, stand up!" Du Hai didn't move. Zhang Wu stepped forward and kicked Du Hai's ass. "Zhang Wu!" Yu Haiying walked up and glared at Zhang Wu: "Take him away." Zhang Wu looked at Yu Haiying, but didn't speak or move. Yu Haiying: "This is an order!" Zhang Wu still didn't move, neither did Lin Ashan and the soldiers. Yu Haiying stepped forward to carry Du Hai on his back, Lin Ashan behind him rushed over and grabbed Yu Haiying, bent down to carry Du Hai on his back, and walked forward, Yu Haiying followed behind. The soldiers walking behind had tears in their eyes, Zhang Wu also wiped his face with his hands, and followed them. As soon as they left, the warehouse behind them collapsed. The next day, the sun was shining brightly, and the sun was like a fire. Outside the tent, soldiers were running on the embankment with their bare arms carrying sandbags, and Xiao Mingliang was among them. An SUV drove up, followed by a truck.Lu Tao jumped out of the car and ran to Xiao Mingliang, and they walked into the tent while talking. Several soldiers moved the mineral water tanks and placed them in the tent. Lu Tao: "Yu Haiying called just now. They have safely withdrawn from Qingjiang Prison and are on their way." Xiao Mingliang: "The reinforcements can't get through now, it's not easy for him to go this way!" He said, grabbed a military water bottle on the table and handed it to Lu Tao, but Lu Tao didn't pick it up. Lu Tao: "I've already brought you mineral water, what are you still drinking?" He took out two bottles of mineral water from the box while talking, and handed one bottle to Xiao Mingliang. Xiao Mingliang: "You are really sending charcoal in the snow and an umbrella in the rain. I have solved the problem here, what about Haiying? Lao Lu, today is August 15th, can we think of a way to send them some mooncakes and water? past?" Lu Tao: "I will contact the Air Force and I will definitely find a way to complete the task." There was a burst of thunder, Xiao Mingliang and Lu Tao looked out, and the sky was filled with dark clouds. The rain hit the windshield with huge splashes, and the downtown was blurred in the torrential rain. Lu Tao was driving anxiously, and the car radio reported the weather situation: "Tropical storm No. 8 will make landfall from the south tonight. There will be a strong rainfall process in this city, which is expected to last until tomorrow morning..." Just as the off-road vehicle was about to drive into the gate of the detachment, a woman holding an umbrella reached out to stop the vehicle. Lu Tao stopped the car, and the woman came over, it was Qiao Hong.Lu Tao quickly opened the door of the passenger seat and let Qiao Hong in. Lu Tao: "My God, what are you doing standing here in such heavy rain?" Qiao Hong smiled, but didn't speak. Lu Tao: "Stay well at home. There is nothing wrong with Yu Haiying. Don't run around with your stomach full! If something happens, won't Yu Haiying eat me when he comes back?" Speaking of Lu Tao starting the car, Qiao Hong reached out and twisted a car key, and the car turned off. Qiao Hong asked, "Where are you going?" Lu Tao: "I'll take you home." Qiao Hong: "I have an urgent matter with you, you must find a way." Lu Tao: "Let's talk at home if we have something to do." Qiao Hong: "I don't want Luo Jing to know about this, let alone Yu Haiying." Lu Tao jokingly said, "What's the matter? You're so mysterious, and you're already like this. It's impossible for us to have any more affair, right?" Qiao Hong said with a serious face: "Don't be serious, I don't have the heart to joke with you." Hearing Qiao Hong's words, Lu Tao also became serious, and said, "Qiao Hong, Hai Ying is not at home, just tell me if you have anything to say." Qiao Hong: "Hey, my company is in some trouble now, and there is a problem with funding." Lu Tao: "What's the problem, is it serious?" Qiao Hong: "My building has just been half built, and now I have no money to pay for the project. If I don't pay the salaries of the construction team, they will withdraw. But now the bank has been rectified, money is tight, and I can't borrow money. Come on. If the building is not completed, it will become an unfinished building, let alone sold, and then not only will the original bank loan be repaid, but I may even have to go to jail." Lu Tao lit a cigarette and smoked it. Qiao Hong: "Now everyone is busy fighting the flood. If there is still a way, I really don't want to cause trouble for you. I thought real estate was exciting, but I didn't expect it to be so fun." She started crying. Lu Tao threw away the cigarette and said comfortingly, "Don't cry, if crying can solve the problem, let's cry together." Qiao Hong cried and said: "If this difficulty can be overcome, I swear I will never engage in real estate." Lu Tao: "Don't be so pessimistic, how much money do you really need?" Qiao Hong: "It's urgent, I need 300,000 yuan." Lu Tao: "I thought it was 30 million yuan. Is this kind of money really a big deal?" Qiao Hong immediately stopped crying. Lu Tao: "It's up to me. You go home and stay, don't let your little one get frightened." After speaking, he started the car and disappeared into the rainy night. After the rain, the sky was clear and the road was wet and muddy. The team escorting the prisoners went upstream along the embankment.He Ziqiang helped Du Hai walk in the team, and Du Hai looked back in horror. Lin Ashan was holding a gun at the bottom of the slope, staring at Du Hai solemnly. Du Hai quickly avoided his gaze, He Ziqiang touched him, and said softly: "Did you see that, they are green-eyed when they see you, I'm afraid your boy's journey will be in bad luck." Du Hai looked at He Ziqiang, did not speak, and continued walking. He Ziqiang: "If you still believe what they say, that is coaxing people to die without paying for their lives." Du Hai walked forward suspiciously. At noon, everyone was still walking hard on the muddy road. An elderly prisoner passed out, and the soldiers stepped forward to carry him on his back. Some prisoners at the back of the line supported each other, and it was very difficult for them to walk. Yu Haiying, who was covered in mud, came forward from the back of the team and gave an order with a walkie-talkie: "Zhang Wu, order everyone to throw away the extra luggage and move forward lightly." "clear." Zhang Wu turned on the walkie-talkie, climbed up a high slope and shouted: "Throw away the extra things, throw down the extra things." Soldiers and prisoners threw things on the side of the road. He Ziqiang and Du Hai took the opportunity of throwing things to sit on the stone by the roadside and took the opportunity to rest for a while. Zhang Wu ran over and shouted, "Du Hai, what do you want to do? Go back to the team." He Ziqiang: "Boss, he sprained his ankle and can't walk." Zhang Wu: "Do you still want me to carry him if he can't walk? You, help him away!" He Ziqiang hurriedly helped Du Hai into the team, and the team continued to move forward. Yu Haiying walked up to Zhang Wu, and the two talked while walking. Yu Haiying said: "Zhang Wu, we must restrain our emotions now. Think about more than 800 prisoners and we only have dozens of soldiers. Once they don't cooperate, it will be difficult for us to complete the task. We can't remember to eat or not Hit, the last time I was punished, it was because I was not calm and brought my emotions to work, this time I can't make such a mistake again!" Zhang Wu reluctantly nodded.At this time, a helicopter roared overhead and circled in the air.Yu Haiying hurriedly shouted on the walkie-talkie: "Deputy Director He, light up the fire!" In an open space, three pillars of smoke rose instantly. The helicopter circled for a while and began to throw packages down. The soldiers who picked up the package cheered. The prisoners also burst into excitement and commotion, which was stopped by soldiers with live ammunition. At dusk, the escort team arrived at a corn field. Yu Haiying said to Zhang Wu, "This corn field is one kilometer long, and we must pass through it before dark. Zhang Wu, has the security team been dispatched?" Zhang Wu: "It's in place." Suddenly, there were three gunshots not far away, and Yu Haiying and Zhang Wu's nerves suddenly tensed up, and they turned and ran towards the gunshots. On the edge of the cornfield.There was a commotion in the ranks as people fled toward the cornfields, and soldiers were trying to stop them. Yu Haiying and Zhang Wu ran over, but the prisoners were still yelling. Zhang Wu roared: "Squat down, all squat down." Most of the prisoners squatted down, but a few were still hesitant, mingling with the prisoners and refusing to squat down. Zhang Wu raised his gun and aimed at a row of corn in the distance. Bah!Bah!Bah! One by one the corn was bloomed. Zhang Wu roared: "Whoever dares to make trouble, be careful!" The prisoners all crouched on the ground. river bank.The two prisoners crossed the cornfields and jumped into the river, followed by the pursuing soldiers. Yu Haiying ran to the river and found that Du Hai was running towards the river, and was thrown down by Lin Ashan who was chasing up from behind. Lin Ashan grabbed Du Hai's neck forcefully. Du Hai said with difficulty: "Strangle me to death, this is an opportunity." Lin Ashan gritted his teeth, and gradually let go of his hand. He restrained himself, and slowly pulled Du Hai up. Du Hai had a look of astonishment. Soldiers dragged a prisoner out of the water and collapsed on the ground.Two soldiers ran over, regardless of their comrades, to rescue the prisoner. This scene deeply shocked Du Hai. On the bank, two more soldiers jumped into the river and swam towards the middle of the river. In the middle of the river, a soldier is still struggling to hunt down a fugitive.A huge wave hit, and the soldiers and prisoners were washed away together. Yu Haiying made an emergency call with a walkie-talkie on the shore: "Commander, Command, I am Qing Jiang. One of our soldiers and criminals was washed away by the flood. Please rescue us urgently..." Flood Control Command.Hearing Yu Haiying's call, Lu Tao hurriedly replied: "The situation has been cleared up. I will organize a search and rescue immediately. You must act according to the original plan." A car and a truck drove into the courtyard of the detachment one after another. The banner of "Salute to the officers and soldiers fighting the flood" was hung on the truck. Qiu Yongxing and two TV reporters got out of the car, and several cadres came to greet them. Qiu Yongxing: "Where is your team leader Lu?" Cadre: "There is an urgent mission. He went to the navy to contact the ship and will be back soon." Qiu Yongxing turned around and organized employees to unload instant noodles from the car.At this time, an off-road vehicle stopped quickly, and Lu Tao jumped off, stepped forward to shake hands with Qiu Yongxing, and said, "Boss Qiu, did you send so many things?" Qiu Yongxing: "Supporting the officers and soldiers fighting against floods is a little bit of my heart! Sending goose feathers a thousand miles away is more important than gifts." Lu Tao: "There is no difference in the affection for the soldiers!" After finishing speaking, he pointed to the instant noodles in the car and said to the reporter: "Don't just shoot us, you should shoot more instant noodles." Lu Tao pulled Qiu Yongxing aside and said, "Boss Qiu, you are really good at it. You can't forget to advertise even if you show your love." Qiu Yongxing said with a smile: "Where, where, the detachment leader asked me to come, it is to give me a chance, of course I want to make things bigger, so that the detachment leader can look good!" Lu Tao: "Boss Qiu, you are really a sensible person. I called you, but I actually need to trouble you with a small matter." Qiu Yongxing: "If you have something to say, just say it!" Lu Tao: "I want to borrow some money from you." Qiu Yongxing put away his smile and asked, "How much?" Lu Tao: "Not much, 300,000." Qiu Yongxing's face changed suddenly, he hesitated for a long time, and then said: "Captain Lu, to tell you the truth, now the country's money is tightened and loans are frozen. My funds are all thrown on the construction of the commercial city again, and I am also a mud bodhisattva." If you cross the river, you can't protect yourself." Lu Tao: "Forget it, Boss Qiu, a starved camel is bigger than a horse. For such a big boss, 300,000 yuan is nothing to you!" Qiu Yongxing: "Captain Lu doesn't know that it was a bubble economy in the past, and 300,000 was only worth 3 yuan. Now that the bubble has burst, 300,000 is 30 million! I have a friend who is engaged in real estate. I want to jump off a building for 100,000 yuan!" Lu Tao's face darkened, and he said, "I understand, Boss Qiu recognizes money but not people?" Qiu Yongxing: "Detachment Captain, I didn't mean that. It is indeed difficult. How about it, I will lend you 50,000 yuan first." Lu Tao: "According to your calculation just now, the 50,000 yuan is equal to 5 million? I'm afraid I won't be able to pay you back in the future!" Lu Tao turned and left. Yu Haiying's house.Qiao Hong sat absent-mindedly on the sofa and watched the news of "Flood Fighting and Emergency Rescue" broadcast on TV. Suddenly, she heard movement in the corridor. Next to the phone, he hesitated for a moment and picked up the phone. On the off-road vehicle, Lu Tao was answering the phone. Lu Tao: "Oh, it's Qiao Hong...Haiying is fine. A soldier and a prisoner were washed away by the water. We are searching for rescue, so don't worry about it...What? Go back to Beijing!...I said you just Don't mess around, I can definitely solve the money issue." While speaking, the car drove into the courtyard of the detachment. Han Fei was about to get on his bicycle and go out when the off-road vehicle stopped in front of him. Lu Tao jumped out of the car, Han Fei pushed his bicycle to meet him, and said, "Detachment Captain, I'm not late, I've been waiting for you here for a long time." Lu Tao: "We are contacting the navy to save lives. Why wait a little longer?" Han Fei smiled helplessly and said, "Of course, flood fighting comes first." Lu Tao: "Everyone is busy fighting the flood now, but you are leisurely, riding a bicycle to exercise?" Han Fei smiled wryly: "Fitness? It's fine if you don't see hell. Detachment leader, if you hadn't taught me to be honest, I might have already entered the account by now." Lu Tao glanced at Han Fei in surprise, and asked, "What's going on?" Han Fei: "What else can happen? The bubble economy burst, the state withdrew the funds, and my buildings have become unfinished. Now I am penniless, and I have become a pauper again." Lu Tao fell into deep thought. He wanted to borrow money from Han Fei, but seeing Han Fei's land, he probably wouldn't be able to pay 300,000 even if he was killed. Han Fei asked: "Detachment Captain, it's windy and the waves are high, what do you want from me?" Lu Tao hesitated for a moment and said, "It's nothing. Many veterans have come back to fight the flood. I haven't seen you. I'm worried that you won't be able to keep up with the situation!" Before the words finished, Lu Tao's cell phone rang. He turned on the cell phone, and the voice of the officer on duty came from the cell phone: "Detachment Captain, I have something important to report to you." Lu Tao: "Say!" Under a big tree, Yu Haiying took a walkie-talkie to answer the news from the headquarters: "After our search and rescue, the soldiers and prisoners have been found!" Yu Haiying: "How are they doing now?" Walkie-talkie: "There is no danger to life, the condition is stable, please rest assured." Yu Haiying said excitedly: "On behalf of all escort officers and soldiers, I would like to express the highest respect to the comrades who participated in the search and rescue. Thank you, thank you!" The soldiers behind us also shed tears of excitement. Yu Haiying: "Tell all the soldiers and prisoners that the two missing people are safe." Zhang Wu picked up the walkie-talkie to convey the news. Yu Haiying wiped the sweat off his forehead, and suddenly his body shook.Lin Ashan had sharp eyes and quick hands, and quickly stepped forward to support him, and asked, "Sir, what's wrong with you?" Yu Haiying: "It's okay. I'm just a little tired. Let me lie down." Lin Ashan and the soldiers around him quickly supported Yu Haiying to lie on the ground. There was a full moon hanging in the sky, and Yu Haiying was filled with emotion and said, "Hey, today's moon is really round!" A cadre: "Chief, hurry up and distribute the mooncakes to the soldiers." Yu Haiying: "These mooncakes should be distributed to the prisoners first!" Cadre: "To them?" Yu Haiying: "At this time, prisoners are most likely to be homesick." Zhang Wu: "Then... we soldiers are also homesick." Yu Haiying hesitated for a moment, and immediately continued: "Explain to the soldiers first, and then compensate them double after completing the task." Zhang Wu: "After all this, we are not even as good as prisoners. We gave them water and mooncakes, so let's just give them the guns." Yu Haiying sat up at once, and said seriously: "Zhang Wu, don't spout nonsense. Under special circumstances, everything must obey the needs of duty. Giving mooncakes to prisoners is good for stability. The stability of prisoners is good for our duty, so it must be given. Comrade Ladies and gentlemen, 850 prisoners are sleeping in the wilderness with no walls and no power grid. String, understand?" Although Zhang Wu was reluctant, he had nothing to say. In the open space, the prisoner lay in darkness. The soldiers carried the boxes and distributed the mooncakes to the prisoners. Some prisoners were holding mooncakes in both hands, reluctant to eat them. Some prisoners held moon cakes and looked up at the sky. Some prisoners lay on the ground and cried. Weeping came from the dark crowd. They looked up at the moon and ate moon cakes, feeling a little bit uncomfortable in their hearts. The moonlight was like water, pouring down on the ground full of stagnant water, shining pieces of silver light.In the silent night, a sentry suddenly shouted: "Stop!" Yu Haiying hurriedly got up and walked over. The two prisoners wanted to move forward, but the soldier pulled the bolt and said loudly, "If you don't stop, I will shoot." The two prisoners squatted down holding their heads. Yu Haiying crossed the cordon, walked up to the prisoner, and asked, "What do you want to do?" Du Hai raised his head and glanced at Yu Haiying, but didn't dare to speak. An elderly prisoner held up a few months of biscuits in his hand and said, "Leader, you are so kind to our prisoners that many of us can't eat them. Take these months of biscuits back and eat them." Yu Haiying: "We have received your wishes. Go back and tell everyone. It is better to cooperate with us in our work than to give us mooncakes." The two prisoners stood up slowly, bowed to Yu Haiying, and turned to leave. Yu Haiying suddenly shouted: "Du Hai, come with me." Holding the moon cakes, Du Hai nervously followed Yu Haiying to the tree, and Yu Haiying asked, "Who proposed to deliver moon cakes to us?" Du Hai: "Spontaneously." Yu Haiying: "Then why did you send mooncakes?" Du Hai: "I can't eat it." He said and handed the mooncake to Yu Haiying. Yu Haiying: "Okay, let's eat together." Yu Haiying took the mooncake, broke it in half, and handed half to Du Hai, who was too nervous to take it. Yu Haiying: "Take it, don't be afraid, I just want to chat with you." Du Hai took the mooncake and nodded. Yu Haiying: "Sit down." After Yu Haiying finished speaking, he sat on the ground, and Du Hai also sat down slowly. Yu Haiying: "You must be very regretful about hitting someone with your car?" Du Hai nodded. Yu Haiying: "Did you really drink too much on the day of the accident?" Du Hai looked straight at Yu Haiying, not knowing how to answer. Yu Haiying: "No matter how much you drink, you should remember how many people were in the car, right?" Du Hai stood up suddenly and looked at Yu Haiying in horror.Yu Haiying seemed to feel something, and stood up accordingly. Yu Haiying: "You really don't remember?" Du Hai: "Leader, just...just me." Yu Haiying emphasized his tone and asked, "Are you really alone?" Du Hai: "I swear." Yu Haiying: "Some people swear every day, but it can't stop him from lying every day. But let me tell you, the truth can't be fake, and the fake can't be true. No matter what you say, I can still feel that you have something in your heart." Du Hai said excitedly, "I don't have anything on my mind. I deserve what I deserve. If I hit someone with my car, I should go to jail." Yu Haiying looked at Du Hai and said, "Du Hai, do you know who the soldier who carried you out of the prison today is?" Du Hai looked at Yu Haiying and shook his head. Yu Haiying: "It's the brother of the soldier you killed." Du Hai was stunned for a moment. Yu Haiying added: "And he also knows that you hit him with a car." Du Hai collapsed on the ground. On a summer night, insects buzzed like a tide, and the Armed Police Hospital was immersed in silence. Lu Tao jumped out of the car with his purse in his arms, hurriedly walked through the corridor, and walked into the ward.Qiao Hong was lying on the hospital bed, and the news about the search and rescue of soldiers and prisoners was broadcast on TV. Luo Jing sat beside her and peeled apples. Lu Tao exclaimed, "Oh my God! Luo Jing's phone call scared me to death. Is there nothing wrong?" Luo Jing: "It's nothing serious. The doctor said that Qiao Hong was a little nervous and under too much mental pressure, which caused her stomach pain." Lu Tao walked to the bedside. Lu Tao: "It's fine as long as it's fine, it's fine as long as it's fine. Qiao Hong, look at how dedicated our family Luo Jing is. After the child is born, we must recognize a godmother." Qiao Hong nodded with a wry smile, and said, "Sister-in-law is tired." Lu Tao asked: "Have you eaten yet?" Luo Jing: "Qiao Hong, she doesn't want to eat anything now." Lu Tao: "She doesn't want to eat anything, so you don't make it? Her favorite food is the lotus seed and white fungus soup you made. The car is waiting below, go back and make it." Luo Jing nodded. Qiao Hong: "Don't bother sister-in-law." Lu Tao: "Let her go, otherwise she won't feel at ease if the child calls her godmother in the future!" Luo Jing smiled: "That's right, that's right." She said and left. Seeing Luo Jing close the door and leave, Lu Tao said, "Qiao Hong, today is August 15th. Yu Haiying called me from the front line and asked me to send you mooncakes on behalf of him and the frontline officers and soldiers." Qiao Hong was listless: "What moon cakes are you giving me? I look like a moon cake now!" Lu Tao: "Don't be so pessimistic." As he spoke, he took out a paper package from his purse and handed it to Qiao Hong. Qiao Hong took it over and looked at it. There were stacks of hundred-yuan bills neatly stacked inside, and asked, "Where did you get it?" Lu Tao smiled and didn't say anything. On the bank of the Taojiang River, two assault boats were approaching, and the convoy was already lined up neatly on the opposite bank. Yu Haiying looked into the distance with binoculars. The warden said: "More than 800 prisoners plus our people, just these two small boats, will it take a monkey year to get through?" 于海鹰:“我想好了,老弱病残和不会游泳的上船,其余的游过去。我派人侦察过了,水流不急,河面也不宽。” 监狱长疑虑重重,问:“这能行吗,如果犯人趁机逃跑怎么办?” 于海鹰:“河岸两边重兵把守,冲锋舟在两旁护送,我想问题不大。” 监狱长还是疑虑,说:“犯人一下水,那可是什么鬼点子都想得出来,万一……” 这时一个士兵跑来报告。 Yu Haiying asked, "What's the matter?" 士兵:“有犯人闹事儿,说要和我们谈判。” 监狱长:“谈什么?” 士兵摇头答:“不知道。” 警戒线内。几名士兵押着杜海、老年犯人和一名中年犯人走了进来。 于海鹰和监狱长严肃地站在他们面前。 监狱长严肃地问:“你们想干什么?” 老年犯人:“领导,你误会了。我们知道这河不好过,我们当中有的人也在打过河的歪点子,他们是谁我们都知道。” 中年犯人:“我们是代表多数的犯人向政府争取个立功的机会。” 于海鹰:“你说具体点儿。” 老年犯人:“我们打算组成护卫小组,把几个打歪主意的人分散开,配合你们过河,请政府相信我们。” 于海鹰:“杜海,你怎么不说话?” 杜海望着于海鹰,扑通一声,跪在他面前,说:“这一路上我给你们找了很多麻烦,对不住了。请领导相信我们,给我们一个机会吧。” 于海鹰和监狱长对视一眼,上前将杜海扶了起来。 长长的囚犯队伍排列有序,两旁站着持枪的武警。 一个狱警站在高处,手持喇叭正在喊话:“……希望你们不要辜负政府对你们的信任,按照执勤武警的统一指挥,有序过河,争取立功,争取减刑……” 一批批武警登船。 一批批犯人下水。 冲锋舟载着一批犯人驶向对岸…… 冲锋舟上站着持枪的武警,河面上一批犯人泅水过去…… 一艘冲锋舟向对岸驶来,于海鹰站在船头…… 过完河,已是黄昏,犯人正在有序地登车,杜海走到车前突然停住了脚步,回头望去。 于海鹰站在不远处也向这边张望。 士兵催杜海赶快上车,杜海请求士兵带他去见于海鹰。 士兵押着杜海走到于海鹰面前。 于海鹰看着杜海,问:“我知道你会找我的,有话你就说吧。” 杜海迟疑着。 于海鹰对押解的士兵说:“你去吧。” 士兵走后,杜海仍沉默寡言。于海鹰又说:“杜海,你应该相信我。” 杜海突然开口问:“你能救我吗?” 于海鹰:“只要你把实情告诉我,只要你没撞人,我就能救你。” 杜海正欲张嘴,远处传来陆涛的喊声。 于海鹰扭头望去,看见陆涛陪着陈然向这边走来。 杜海看见陈然,慌张起来,说:“我……我先走了。” 于海鹰:“我会去找你的。” 杜海在士兵的押送下离去。 于海鹰上前与陆涛、陈然握手。 陆涛:“我们刚从大堤下来,陈市长非要亲自来接你。” 陈然握着于海鹰的手,亲切地说:“老于,你辛苦了。” 犯人一个不少地全部登上了车,卡车押送犯人从他们身边一辆接一辆地离去。 于海鹰将目光移向一辆卡车,卡车上的杜海向于海鹰张望着,他的眼里流露出疑惑和期望……
