After traveling through time, I found the country's father as a backer and became the group

Chapter 411 The scene of the past no longer exists

Huo Haocheng led a team of people into the city, and Bo Sirui and his men, in pairs, led a team to each commune to check the situation.

Huo Haocheng and his team had just entered the city. Although they were mentally prepared, they were still shocked by the shocking ruins in front of them.

This was a bustling street yesterday, but now it is occupied by broken walls and ruins. Broken bricks, twisted steel bars and scattered rubble are piled together, as if silently telling the horror and tragedy when the earthquake comes.

The collapsed house looked like it had been stepped on by a monster, leaving only an incomplete frame that was still tottering; the shattered glass from the windows, the sharp fragments, flashed a cold light under the first ray of rising sunlight.

Some of the once tall and straight trees were not spared. Some were broken in half, some were uprooted, and fell to the ground in all directions. The leaves were scattered everywhere, as if they were tears they shed as they cried for the disaster.

The air was filled with the smell of dust, making their breathing heavy.

Huo Haocheng and his men walked along the way, knocking with iron rods and shouting, "Is there anyone here? Is there anyone who can hear us?" Although they knew that the people in the city had been moved to a safe area, what if there were still people in some corner who had not been discovered? What if someone secretly ran back home at night without them noticing?

There are a total of 4 shelters set up outside Tang City, in four different locations. Yesterday, Huo Haocheng asked the soldiers and police from the four shelters to come over. At that time, if someone sneaked away, it was not certain.

They walked along the street and found the area near the school. Yesterday at this time, it was full of students chasing each other for fear of being late for school. Today, everything is gone. The collapsed teaching building buried many children's dreams and hopes. The playground was full of cracks and potholes. The trees planted on both sides also fell on top of each other in a mess. The green leaves were crushed by cement and bricks. When you get closer, you can see the green spots on them.

Huo Haocheng led his men around the school, but didn't see anyone, so they felt a little relieved.

Across the school is the supply and marketing cooperative store. The shelves inside were crushed by the collapsed wall, and the things that fell from the shelves were also crushed underneath. Some of the goods were covered in dust and it was impossible to tell what they were. The scene of people crowding together and shouting to grab things seemed like a distant dream.

Huo Haocheng and his companions stepped forward and searched among the rubble to see if there was anything still usable. At this time, no one would be able to deliver supplies to them in the short term, so they had to save as much as possible. In the rubble, they found a tattered doll, clothes torn by glass, a crushed bicycle... These were all witnesses of their previous lives, and now made people feel sad.

What Huo Haocheng and the others didn't expect was that before setting out for Tangcheng, Ruanruan had already called Huo Haoshen. So, when the earthquake occurred, Huo Haoshen and Zeng Yunye, who were far away in Yuncheng, had already loaded daily necessities from several factories that had been cooperating with Yuncheng.

This time, in addition to driving out the transport vehicles in their own factory, they also directly rented all the usable vehicles in the transport fleet. 20 transport vehicles loaded with supplies were rushing to Tang City day and night. Together with Huo Haoshen and Zeng Yunye, there were 50 soldiers including Sun Hongxin.

After Commander Gu learned of their actions, he asked Sun Hongxin to lead the team and be responsible for escorting the supplies.

Huo Haocheng's team passed through one ruin after another. In addition to seeing the entire destroyed city, they only brought back a relatively weak cat.

On the other side, Bo Sirui and Ruan Shaoke's team came to the Lijia Brigade under the commune, where they saw the villagers working together to lift a collapsed beam.

"Hurry, help!" Bosrui said, and immediately ran forward, followed by the soldiers behind him.

"The People's Liberation Army is here, the People's Liberation Army is here!" Several children who were held in their mothers' arms immediately shouted when they saw the soldiers.

"Come on, let's count one, two, three together and push hard together." Bosrui helped the young man who was holding in the middle so that he could take a short break, and then shouted to everyone.

"one two three"

"one two three"

"rise"

With the joint efforts of the people and soldiers, the beams were finally lifted up. However, after they lifted them up, they saw two old men hugging each other. Their bodies were stiff, with multiple scars on their bodies, and there were many pieces of collapsed mud beside them.

Seeing this scene, everyone felt uncomfortable.

Bosrui looked at the villagers who were sad at the moment. They looked dirty, but they didn't look like they had escaped after the earthquake. So they must have received the notice and prepared in advance to go to the shelter built in the village. But why were these two elderly people crushed to death in their own home? Bosrui didn't understand.

"Excuse me, who is the captain?" If you don't understand something, you must find out. Bosrui wanted to find the captain to find out. He didn't doubt the captain. Looking at the situation of the villagers, he knew that the captain must have informed everyone. He just wanted to ask the question clearly, and he was also afraid that someone would use the death of the in-laws to make trouble in the future.

"Comrade soldier, I am the captain, my last name is Li." The speaker was a man who looked to be in his 50s. Because he had been helping out, he was covered in dust and his hair was stained with dirt.

"Captain, I just want to know why they didn't go to the shelter?" Bosrui asked in a relatively gentle tone.

"Comrade soldier, I know what you want to ask, but I can't answer your question. Last night, after dinner, I notified everyone in the village to take all the valuables at home to the shelter to rest. At first, Uncle Zhuang and Aunt Zhuang got to the shelter with the help of my son and daughter-in-law. Moreover, when I went to bed at night, I made sure everyone was there. I went to bed only after I was sure that everyone was there.

I don't know when Uncle Zhuang and Aunt Zhuang returned home. At the latest, when the earthquake came, everyone was in chaos and there was no electricity in our village. I just shone the flashlight roughly and saw that no one was missing. After calming everyone down, we sat together until dawn. After dawn, my wife and the women in the village made breakfast together. Then we discovered that Uncle Zhuang and Aunt Zhuang were missing, and then we came here to look for them.
