People on both sides of the valley fell into grief.On the mountain on the north side of the valley, all the people, led by the villagers, found a cave to shelter from the rain, and one by one fires were lit.

But most of the soldiers and regiment political commissars stood guard at the entrance of the cave, and the political commissars looked at the distance worriedly. Although it was pitch black there, only a few shadows could be seen vaguely, and nothing else could be seen, but the regiment , only he knows the true identity of the leader.

That is the prince of Datang!

During this period of getting along, he has almost forgotten the identity of the other party. He is no different from ordinary soldiers like them, but now he suddenly remembered.

It's just such a prince of the Tang Dynasty, but he does the same things as them every day.

Until, the political commissar saw a bright flame on the hillside far away from the other side, which suddenly became extremely conspicuous in the dark night.

In an instant, everyone cheered.

"It's okay, the leader is okay!" Many soldiers shouted excitedly.

The worry on the political commissar's face finally eased away. If there is a fire, it proves that there are people. The regiment leader and the others should be fine, but they just evacuated to the highest point.

They should also be able to see the flames they created, and the flood peak in the river has completely passed, although the water level of the river is still high.

But it should fall tomorrow. If it stops raining tomorrow, there should be a way to take the group leader and the others over.

Everyone spent an uneasy night in anxiety. There was not enough firewood in the second half of the night, so they had to throw some wet branches outside the cave to avoid the rain and burn them to prevent smoke from entering the cave.

After the smoke was almost roasted, they tried to find a way to get the wood into the cave, and everyone barely survived the night.

When the sky began to brighten outside, a voice that made everyone happy came over, "The rain has stopped!"

After sleeping in a daze all night, everyone woke up instantly, and most of them ran out of the cave. When they came out of the cave, everyone was stunned.

The place where Shanhuai Village was originally located on the opposite side is like the earth dragon turning over, no, it is more terrifying than the earth dragon turning over, because there is nothing left there.

Except for the things they brought out yesterday, the entire Shanhuai Village has completely disappeared. The terrifying flash flood mixed with gravel and branches formed a flood similar to a mudslide, washing everything away.

Houses, trees, fields, and roads were all gone, and some poultry and livestock that hadn't been taken away yesterday were all washed away.

Everyone was amazed at the devastation wrought by the mighty force of nature, too powerful, and human power too small.Many women wept softly, not knowing whether it was the joy of remaining alive after the catastrophe, or the sadness of the destruction of their homes.

The water potential of the river seems to have dropped compared to yesterday, but there is nothing left of the stone bridge. It is not easy to cross the river now with this water potential.

If they didn't come out yesterday, they would be like those things that were washed away, and no one in the village would survive.

Thinking of this, everyone was full of gratitude, and looked at the soldiers around them with gratitude.

At this moment, two soldiers on the opposite mountain ran towards this place frantically. Seeing this, the political commissar couldn't help but feel uneasy for a while, and he rushed directly to the river.

The river in the canyon was not wide, and when he rushed to the river, he heard two soldiers on the opposite side shouting sadly: "Political Commissar, the head of the regiment died, and the head of the regiment was buried in Zhang Goudan's house yesterday!"

The political commissar's eyes darkened, and he almost fell over!But he held back and asked loudly, "Did the house get washed away?"

"No, the house has collapsed, the team battle is under pressure, we need tools!" two soldiers shouted loudly.

"Go, call the people in the village and ask them where the water is calm and we can cross the river." The political commissar ordered directly, holding back his grief.

All the soldiers who got the news were stunned, the regiment leader...is gone?In their minds almost immediately came to the head of the group leader who was a bit hip-hop and full of majesty. Although he had high demands on them, he was a very good person in private, and he often told them some things. The story of the rich and powerful in Chang'an.

He also told them that when they returned to Chang'an City, they would invite the whole group to drink while they were resting.

Now... the head of the regiment is gone?

Everyone was a little unbelievable and bewildered, and the villagers of Shanhuai Village were equally unbelievable and apprehensive. The commander of these soldiers is gone?To save them?

Then...they...all of them looked over worriedly.

What they didn't expect was that the political commissar after appeasing the soldiers came over and said softly, "Fellow folks, do you know where the river is smoother? We're going there and bring our regiment leader to the river." come out."

There is no anger, no anger, no blame on others, still a gentle voice, kind address, and the same respectful tone.

All the villagers fell silent.

"I know, I'll take you there." A 20-year-old boy from the village stood up.

"I'll go too!" Every villager stood up.

"No, no, just tell us where we can go." The political commissar hurriedly said.

"Sir, let them go. If we don't go, we are too inhuman." The old village chief also said in a low voice.

The political commissar paused and did not refuse.

They quickly found a place with a gentle current, and all of them crossed the river and went straight to Zhang Goudan's house.

When they arrived, several soldiers were already digging with bare hands, and Zhang Goudan's family was also helping in a daze.

"Political commissar." Seeing the political commissar approaching, three of the soldiers who were not too old hugged the political commissar and cried.

"Okay, don't cry! You are soldiers of the Tang Dynasty, you bleed but don't shed tears! Now tell me what's going on." The political commissar said loudly.

The three soldiers held back their tears, while the squad leader next to him told what happened yesterday.

"Sir, it's... I'm sorry for you, kill me for the commander's life." Zhang Goudan next to him said silently.

"What nonsense!" The political commissar yelled directly, and then waved his hand: "Save people first! You need to see people when you live, and you need to see corpses when you die."

All the soldiers rushed over immediately, there was not much soil covered here, and the shape of Zhang Goudan's house could barely be seen, so with so many people, they quickly pulled away everything outside. .

When they tore off the last piece of broken mat outside, something that no one expected happened. They seemed to be alarmed by something, and a piercing cry came from the ruins.

Everyone was stunned for a moment, then suddenly rushed over with surprise on their faces, digging along with the sound of crying.

When the ruins were opened and the situation inside was revealed, everyone was silent.

A hunchbacked figure was bent in the corner of the wall. His body had been smashed into a disfigurement. Blood stained the soil beside him brown. His neck was already bent, but his body managed to prop up a space. In that space, that child Zhang Goudan was crying unharmed!
