Chapter 48 Crisis Resolved

Late at night, except for the sound of wind and rain, there is a silence like death between heaven and earth.

Xu Yishan accepted Lao Sun's opinion, but he did not press the detonator.

In the early morning, the rain became much lighter and the wind stopped.

Lao Sun looked at the sky that was slowly quieting down and said with a sigh of relief: "As long as the rain stops falling, the danger may be eliminated. Fortunately, it didn't explode."

Xu Yishan doesn't think so. God will change his face at any time in this bad weather. A brief tranquility does not mean that the danger has passed. The more this seemingly safe and sound, the power it bursts out is often caught off guard.

"You can't take it lightly." Xu Yishan reminded Lao Sun: "Lao Sun, you can work harder and take your brothers to patrol the embankment."

Lao Sun nodded and said, "Okay, Mayor Xu, I will leave a few people to watch with you here."

Lao Sun took his men to patrol the flood control embankment, and there were only Xu Yishan and two militiamen who looked exhausted on the rainbow bridge.

As the town armed forces minister, Lao Sun is very good at work.

Whether it is the annual recruitment work or the routine militia training, Hongshan Town led by Lao Sun has always been at the forefront of the county.

Under Lao Sun, there is a militia team that is always available. This team is composed of retired veterans and young people in the town. Lao Sun often takes them to conduct military training. The training intensity and training requirements are no less than professional soldiers.

Duan Yanhua once despised Lao Sun and scolded him for being full and having a peaceful and prosperous era. He was worried about nothing.

Duan Yanhua and Lao Sun could not pee in the same pot, which is an open secret that everyone in the town knows. The power gap between the two people is very large. Duan Yanhua is the top leader of Hongshan Town, and Lao Sun is just an armed minister.

The town armed forces minister is actually a marginal person. If it weren't for the annual recruitment work, many people would have forgotten that there was such a department in the town.

Lao Sun wanted to transfer from Hongshan Town and work under Duan Yanhua's nose, but Duan Yanhua refused to let him go, so he had to turn his sadness back into a river.

Watching Lao Sun walk away, Xu Yishan asked the people around him for a cigarette and lit it.

He didn't smoke at first, but at this moment, he needed a cigarette to numb himself.

He sucked it down in one gulp and coughed violently.

The militia next to him laughed at him and said, "Mayor Xu, you can't smoke and waste cigarettes. Smoke is a fairy grass."

"What a god." Xu Yishan replied with a smile, walked aside, took out the phone and called Chen Xiaoqi.

As soon as the phone rang, Chen Xiaoqi answered.

"Wife, have you slept?" he asked with a smile. He had a wonderful feeling now. As long as he called Chen Xiaoqi's wife, he felt extremely comfortable all over.

"Xu Yishan, are you dizzy? You don't even look at what time it is now."

"You answered the phone so quickly, you must have not fallen asleep." Xu Yishan whispered: "Are you thinking of me?"

"I miss your head." Chen Xiaoqi cursed: "Xu Yishan, has your bridge exploded?"

"No." Xu Yishan glanced at Hongqiao and whispered: "Lao Sun's opinion, wait and see. It is best not to explode the bridge unless it is absolutely necessary."

Chen Xiaoqi sighed and said, "Xu Yishan, you are not dizzy yet. You are about to explode this bridge, and you will finish it."

"But if Hongqiao endangers the safety of Hongshan Town, I will definitely blow it up."

Chen Xiaoqi didn't move anymore. After a while, he said: "Xu Yishan, I have thought of a way to solve the problem of eating. But it definitely cannot meet your requirements. If you eat 100,000 people, you can cook me and share it with them, and you can't even drink a single bite of soup."

Xu Yishan smiled and said, "Who dares to cook my wife? I will cook his 18 generations of ancestors."

Chen Xiaoqi told him that she had already called in the Women's Federation that early tomorrow morning, women in the county would unite, and have money and work hard to prepare lunch boxes and various grains to Hongshan Town.

Moreover, she also revealed a more important information. She asked someone to find the troops stationed in Maoshan County and asked the troops to send people to support the local area.

The troops have agreed that they will arrange more than a dozen marching vehicles to Hongshan Town for support tomorrow morning.

When Xu Yishan heard this, he shouted happily: "Wife, you are my dearest and beloved wife of Xu Yishan. You have helped me a lot."

Chen Xiaoqi snorted: "Don't be too happy too early. Xu Yishan, I only have one request. Please do it well and don't make any trouble."

After hanging up the phone, he smiled and the roaring waves of Honghe in front of him turned into bright fireworks blooming in his eyes.

The militia looked excited and asked him, "Master Xu, have you called your sister-in-law's wife?"

Xu Yishan asked him in surprise: "How do you know?"

The militia laughed and said, "You just now, your voice is so high, and you shout at your wife. We can hear it clearly."

Xu Yishan smiled and said proudly: "Do you know who my wife is? Let me tell you, I will envy you so much. My wife is Chen Xiaoqi, the most beautiful county flower in Maoshan County. Have you heard of it?"

The militia looked at each other and said, "Master Xu, you really make us envious. My sister-in-law is a beautiful woman. Everyone knows that if you don't like to hear, your wife is the dream lover of countless people."

Xu Yishan smiled and said, "You just dream."

After chatting for a few words, Xu Yishan asked the militia to rest for a while, and he just stared at the detonator.

The militia happily went to find a dry place to sit. At the head of the Hongqiao Bridge, only Xu Yishan was guarding the detonator.

The wind completely stopped, the rain gradually stopped, and a trace of white like a fish belly appeared in the sky.

It's going to dawn.

This night, it was like a fierce battle, and everyone was exhausted.

After the inspection, Lao Sun came back and told Xu Yishan that the levee was stable and no pipe surge was found. Moreover, the flood was at least one meter away from the top of the levee.

Lao Sun analyzed that if the rain stopped falling, the flood would soon recede.

Once the flood recedes, Hongshan Town will be safe.

Xu Yishan didn't see this way. He reminded Lao Sun: "No one should take it lightly before the danger is completely lifted. Lao Sun, you must insist on patrolling the embankment every half hour."

Lao Sun nodded and said, "Okay, please ensure that you complete the task."

It was finally dawning and the surroundings were hazy.

After a night of heavy rain, Hongshan Town seems so beautiful and refined.

The heavy rain washed the dust clean, and the towering buildings in the distance looked particularly bright.

The most luxurious community in Hongshan Town - Huangjin Community, has several of the tallest residential buildings in the town. At this moment, in the twilight morning light, the Golden Community is becoming more and more prominent.

Lao Sun said gladly: "Luckily we didn't blow up the bridge last night."

Xu Yishan smiled bitterly and said, "Thank God, God bless Hongshan Town."

In the distance, figures have appeared.

The people in Hongshan Town who had been evacuated overnight began to appear one after another.

Last night, some of them stayed on the Jiaoshan overnight, while others found a high place to hide. The sudden and urgent evacuation made them feel like they were a different world.

Lao Sun looked at the figure that appeared and smiled bitterly: "Mayor Xu, next, you may be very sad."

Xu Yishan asked him in surprise: "Why am I sad?"

Lao Sun glanced at Hong He who was rolling and sighed: "The danger was relieved, and your troubles are coming."
