This is unexpected!
No one had expected this to happen!
Dong Xuebing felt his head is about to explode as he looked at the buried tour bus. He cursed under his breath and ran towards the County's leaders. Now, there are more than three to four trapped tourists buried under the sand. A few rescue team members, including Hui Tian Village Station's officers, are also buried under the sand. Dong Xuebing is panicking as one of his men had just died. Public Security Bureau Chief Liang Chengpeng and the rescue team leaders quickly ran over to Mayor Xie and Secretary Cao's convoy.
"Mayor Xie, what should we do now?"
"It's too dangerous here. You should move to a safe place first!"
"That's right. There might be more landslides, and it's not safe here!"
The accompanying officials advised Xie Huilan to leave as soon as possible. At this time, they must ensure the leader's safety and must not let anything happen to her. But Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and stared at the direction where the tour bus was drowned in the sea. Cao Xupeng, who was standing beside her, had no intention of retreating. The people trapped in the tour bus are still not rescued, and if they leave now, how are they going to answer to the villagers?
Liang Chengpeng sighed. "I'm afraid we can't save them."
A woman was crying from afar. "Save my son! Someone, save my son! "
A middle-aged couple grabbed a few rescuers by their arms. "My daughter is still inside! Save them! Hurry up and save them! "
"My husband is also inside!"
But no one from the rescue team dares to go up. In this situation, if they wanted to dig out the bus and open up a rescue route, the best way would be to use a forklift or other rescue vehicles. But first of all, not to mention whether the rescue vehicles would be able to drive over, the time spent on the road was the biggest problem. The bus was in a sealed environment, and the air inside was probably not going to last long. If someone else went up to dig, the continuous flow of gravel and sand from the mountain would be enough to make it difficult for them to move. Everyone came in a hurry, so they didn't bring any rescue equipment!
Moreover, with such a huge impact just now, it was uncertain whether he was still alive or not.
Rush up? That's risking their lives!
Liang Chengpeng had ordered his men to call for the rescue vehicles, and when he got back, he said. "The rescue vehicles will take at least an hour to arrive."
Xie Huilan said with a straight face. "It's too late!"
Cao Xupeng took a deep breath and said, "That's right. Even if the oxygen in the car can last for an hour, the sand outside will definitely seep into the car through the windows. The air left will only get lesser and lesser. I'm afraid it won't even last for fifteen minutes. When the rescue vehicle arrives, it will be too late!"
Liang Chengpeng said, "Then now …"
In the heavy rain, the cries of the rescued civilians were exceptionally clear.
Xie Huilan immediately said. "Save them! Save them now! "
Liang Chengpeng's eyes twitched. "Mayor Xie!" It was not that he did not want to save people, but he could not treat the lives of the rescue team members as a joke. The weight of the sand and stones that flew down from the mountain was very heavy, and some were even the size of a football. It was enough to be fatal. If he rushed up without any equipment, the consequences would be unimaginable!
Xie Huilan replied firmly. "I don't care what methods you all use! Even if he dug with his hands! Dig him out for me! "
Cao Xupeng gritted his teeth and said, "Saving them is more important!"
Since the leader had spoken, Liang Chengpeng couldn't do anything even if he had any objections. He made up his mind and ordered, "Find two police officers with better physical fitness! Save them! "
Dong Xuebing looked around. "Where is Liu Dahai?"
Chen Fa ran over with his face covered in dirt. He was stunned when he heard that and quickly looked around. "Chief Liu was here just now?"
He shouted for Liu Dahai a few more times, but no one answered. Dong Xuebing's face changed. "Old Liu is also trapped in the bus? Damn! " The scene was too chaotic, and everyone was wearing raincoats. No one could tell who was in the bus. The only thing Dong Xuebing could think of was Liu Dahai, who had participated in the rescue earlier, and was trapped in the bus. Dong Xuebing gritted his teeth and shouted. "Old Chen! Pick two people to go rescue them! Hurry! "
"Yes, Sir!"
Chen Fa immediately called two officers over, and a few villagers passed the shovels to them. The two officers from Hui Tian Village Station were scared, and their hands were shaking when they received the shovels. But when they remembered Liu Dahai and the rest were still trapped in the mud, they mustered up their courage and rushed forward without hesitation. They stepped on the edge of the mud and walked forward with difficulty.
This was not a mudslide. The sand had slid down from the surface of the mountain, and it was still hard.
Although the sand was up to their calves, it was still enough for them to stand.
One of the police officers stepped on the thick layer of sand and wobbled.
Dong Xuebing and the rest were looking at the two officers with their hearts in their throats!
It was still raining, and the sky was foggy. This showed how heavy the rain was. The slope of the mountain was extremely unstable. There had just been a landslide. Now, some of the sand and stones on the surface were all exposed. When the heavy rain washed them down the mountain, they rolled down the mountain. It would be fine if the impact was five or six meters, but many of the stones rolled down from tens or even hundreds of meters away. The impact was so great that it was unimaginable!
One step …
Three steps …
Five steps …
Before the police officer could take eight steps, something happened!
A piece of gravel rolled down from the top of the mountain. Dong! There was a muffled sound of flesh hitting flesh. Before anyone could see it clearly, the police officer screamed and fell into the mud while holding his leg. His body sank into the mud and began to sink slowly. The surface of the mud was still relatively soft, and there were some uneven pits in some places. The police officer pushed against the mud to stand up, but he pressed against a pit and sank again with a whoosh!
When the police officer behind him saw this, he hurriedly took two steps forward to pull him back.
But the next moment, four to five rocks rolled down the sand. Bam! Bam! Bam!
One rock hit the officer's ribs, and the other hit his head. The officer fell to the ground, and no one knew if he was dead or alive!
Dong Xuebing panicked. "Pull them back! Quick! Quick! "
Liang Chengpeng also shouted. "Go!"
A few villagers and people from the fire department covered their faces to protect their heads as they hurriedly ran forward to save people. Some people did not even step on the mud as they were afraid of being swallowed by the mud. Some people were also stuck in the mud and could not even move their legs. Only five people went to the place where the two police officers had an accident. After a lot of effort, they finally pulled the two police officers back. Both of them had broken bones, but fortunately, they were still alive.
No one dares to go forward after seeing this scene.
That is risking their lives! That is suicide!
Xie Huilan's face changed. "Go again!"
Liang Chengpeng saw no one was moving and ordered. "Xiao Li! You go! "
That officer's face changed, and his face changed. But he cannot ignore Chief Liang's orders. He had no choice but to step forward. He is a skinny man, and his body did not sink too deep into the mud. One meter … five meters … eight meters … he is getting closer to the bus. But just when he was about to reach the bus, Xiao Li disappeared!
"Xiao Li!"
He had fallen into the mud pit!
Liang Chengpeng's face turned red. He saw two hands struggling on the surface of the hole, trying to climb up. But the sand is very soft, and it's like a mudslide. It's impossible to climb up. When Dong Xuebing and Liang Chengpeng shouted for help, Xiao Li's hands softened, and he stopped struggling.
Another officer from the Public Security was sacrificed!
Liang Chengpeng's eyes turned red. Xiao Li is the one who picked this officer, and if he did not ask him to help, he will also …
A rescue team member shouted. "We cannot go any further!"
Someone else added. "That's right. The people in the bus might not make it!" Everyone is afraid they will be the next one.
Cao Xupeng had just called the County's Party Secretary, Xiang Daofa, to report the emergency. He got out of his car and shouted. "Party Secretary Xiang had given instructions! We must save everyone! " He paused for a while and continued. "We cannot force our way out! The rescue vehicles will not arrive! Hurry up and think of another way! "
No one said a word.
What else can they do now? Unless someone goes up to dig the bus out! If not, there is nothing they can do!
But two people had died, and who dares to go up?
Liang Chengpeng, Dong Xuebing, and the rest looked at Xie Huilan. Mayor Xie's eyelashes twitched and said. "Evacuate the people to the County first. Send the injured to the People's Hospital, and the rest will head south. Find a safe place further away from the mountain. I will stay here to command and wait for the rescue vehicles!"
Chen Fa interrupted. "I had just received news that the road back to the County is blocked by a few trees."
Xie Huilan said. "Then park the bus far away! Before the rescue vehicles arrive! We must clear the road! "
Cao Xupeng immediately shouted. "Mayor Xie! How can we do that? You should evacuate too! "
Xie Huilan waved her hand. "Don't say anything. Secretary Cao, bring the people away!"
"Mayor Xie!"
"Mayor Xie!"
"… leave now!"
Liang Chengpeng had no choice but to evacuate the people and ask his men to drive the minibus to a safe place a few hundred meters away. There are a few trees and mud in front of them, and it's not easy for the minibus to pass. Furthermore, this place is far from the mountain, and it's still safe for the time being. Liang Chengpeng parked the minibus at the spot, and a few villagers started to clear the road. Because a few family members were still trapped in the mud, two couples and a few elderly people refused to leave no matter what, so they stayed at the scene, crying and wailing.
Liang Chengpeng, Cao Xupeng, and the rest of the leaders did not move. If Mayor Xie does not leave, they will not leave.
Xie Huilan shouted. "Old Cao! Old Liang! Bring the people away first! "
At this moment, Cao Xupeng and the rest could tell that Mayor Xie is different from others. Usually, the impression Mayor Xie gives Cao Xupeng and the rest is that she is smiling, beautiful, and powerful. But other than that, Cao Xupeng and the rest could not tell anything about her. But this time, Mayor Xie's fearless attitude had touched them. The Mayor will not leave before the hostage is rescued. Not everyone has this attitude!
Rumble!
A few more loud bangs were heard! The ground under their feet is shaking!
But they don't know if there are landslides at other places, or another landslide is coming!
Hearing that voice, everyone's face suddenly changed. Some officials immediately retreated to the distance with Jiang Liushi's minibus, where it was still very safe.
Xie Huilan shouted coldly. "How many times do you want me to repeat myself?! Go! "
An old woman walks over shakily. "Mayor Xie! My grandson is still in the car! When the rock hit him, he was thrown to the back of the car! I beg you all! I beg you all! He is only ten years old! Please save him! Please save him! "
Xie Huilan consoled her. "The rescue vehicles will be here soon! I believe they will be fine! "
A middle-aged couple was crying. "The rescue vehicles will not make it in time! We can't make it in time! Please save them! Don't go! Don't go! We will kneel before you all! Sob … sob … sob … " Plop! Dong Xuebing and Dong Xuebing knelt on the rain-soaked road. The wife cried and kowtowed to Xie Huilan and Dong Xuebing. The husband also wiped his tears and kowtowed again and again. After two kowtows, his head is bleeding!
"I will also kneel before you!" The old lady and the rest of the relatives also kneeled on the ground!
"Save them! Sob … sob … sob … My daughter is dead! I don't want to live anymore! "
"Xiao Juan is still in the car! Sob … sob … Xiao Juan! Xiao Juan! "
"Mayor Xie! Show some mercy, please! Sob … sob … I beg you! "
Everyone was agitated and shouted for Xie Huilan to call for reinforcements. But two officers had died, and the sand and rocks are still rolling down the mountain. If she calls for reinforcements to dig up the bus, more than two officers will die. Everyone's life is important.
The scene was a complete mess!
Xie Huilan is considering driving the minibus over the mudslide to block the falling rocks and sand. Although it is difficult to do this, they must not abandon anyone. That's why Mayor Xie insisted on staying at the scene to command. Cao Xupeng, Liang Chengpeng, and the other leaders dare not to leave and said they will stay behind to help. But the civilians can't wait and want Mayor Xie to send people to dig up the minibus. Xie Huilan knelt on the ground and kowtowed. Loud noises could be heard from the top of the mountain, and the landslide could happen anytime!
Chaos!
It's all chaos!
Dong Xuebing was furious when he saw this scene. "Hui Tian Village Station! Get over here now!"
Chen Fa heard what Dong Xuebing said and immediately leads his men over. "Chief Dong, what should we do now? Who should we listen to? " Mayor Xie had asked them to leave, and the civilians are asking them to rescue them. But Chief Liang is not letting them leave! His men do not know what to do!
Dong Xuebing stared at Chen Fa. "Who do you think we should listen to?"
Chen Fa quickly replied. "We will listen to you!" The rest of the officers also replied.
"Ok!" Dong Xuebing points to the side. "Those civilians are crying on the ground! They are the rescue team! The Public Security Bureau! Including all the County's Leaders! I will give you all five minutes! Bring all of them to the bus and send them away! Go and hide near the minibus! Listen up! Don't leave anyone behind! Send all of them away! "
Chen Fa paused. "Mayor Xie and Secretary Cao …"
Dong Xuebing's face changed. "Don't you understand? What do you mean by don't leave anyone behind? "
"Yes! I understand now! "
After receiving Dong Xuebing's orders, everyone boarded another minibus and drove it to the middle of the County's leaders. After that, the officers from Hui Tian Village Station started to drag the civilians onto the minibus. One of the civilians refused to leave and tried to jump out after being carried onto the minibus. But Chen Fa reacted quickly and handcuffed him to the minibus!
Liang Chengpeng shouted angrily. "Chief Dong! What are you doing?! "
Dong Xuebing ignored him and shouted. "Bring all of them onto the bus! I will bear the responsibility if anything happens! "
Everyone was shocked to see Liang Chengpeng and Cao Xupeng being dragged onto the minibus forcefully by the officers!
Dong Xuebing treats his subordinates well, and everyone in the station can tell. When there are benefits, Chief Dong will think of them. When there are difficulties, Chief Dong will be the first to help. Now, all the officers in Hui Tian Village Station trust Chief Dong more than Chief Liang and the Mayor. That's why even when Chief Dong orders them to drag Liang Chengpeng and Cao Xupeng away by force, they did not resist. If it were the officers from other stations, they will not be so united.
This is Dong Xuebing's soldiers!
This is Hui Tian Village Station!
A heart-wrenching cry was squeezed out from the car window!
"I am not leaving! Xiao Juan! Xiao Juan! "
"My son is not out yet! What are you all doing?! Ah?! Sob! Leilei! "
"Save him! Please save him! Don't go! Don't go! "
"Oh my god! Sob! Sob! Sob! Someone save my grandson! "
In the end, even Xie Huilan was asked by a female officer to board the minibus!
Xie Huilan narrowed her eyes and looked at Dong Xuebing. "Do you know what you are doing?"
Dong Xuebing replied. "I know! I am sorry, leaders! I have offended you today! "Dong Xuebing turned and shouted." Chen Fa! Drive! "
A minibus and a few police cars started moving.
Chen Fa saw Dong Xuebing did not move and stuck his head out from the minibus. "Chief Dong, get in."
Dong Xuebing took a deep breath and waved his hand. "You all can leave."
Chen Fa and the officers from Hui Tian Village Station were shocked. "Chief Dong! What are you trying to do? "
Xie Huilan also looked over and stared at Dong Xuebing's eyes. Liang Chengpeng and Cao Xupeng could guess what Dong Xuebing was trying to do and were stunned. "Xiao Dong!"
Dong Xuebing replied emotionlessly. "Hurry up and drive!"
Chen Fa gritted his teeth and shouted. "Motherf * cker! Drive! "
Everyone was shocked to see Chief Dong, whose hands were still bandaged, bending over to pick up a shovel and walk towards the buried bus!
Everyone was shocked by this scene!!
