Chapter 173 This kind of happiness hurts a bit 1
Lou Xi gently kissed her hair, her movements were gentle, but her tone was firm, "I like you, love you!"

Ye Xingchen froze suddenly, her heart beat faster, but the expected sweetness was not there. She subconsciously frowned, not understanding why, she raised her head and quickly expressed her heart to him, "Me too!"

Lou Xi was also taken aback, there was not much joy in his handsome appearance, but his heart became heavier, and he clenched her hand tightly.

Both of them don't understand why, but they both understand that if they like or love something, they look forward to it when they don't say it, but after they say it, it becomes a promise, a promise for a lifetime, and never give up.

If they were ordinary office workers, there would be nothing wrong with these words, but they are not. He has his tasks, and she has hers. In this devastated disaster area, love is by no means empty words, but a kind of The responsibility is to take care of each other.

"Battalion commander, sister-in-law, it's getting late, let's rest!" Li Yi suddenly walked over rashly.

Lou Xi's face darkened, and Ye Xingchen quickly retreated from his embrace, very embarrassed.

Li Yi touched his nose, very depressed, he was kind!

"That...battalion commander, sister-in-law, I've made the floor bunk, specially prepared for you, go to sleep!"

Lou Xi's expression softened slightly, as if he was satisfied with his arrangement.

Ye Xingchen looked embarrassed, want to sleep with him?Although it is not just the two of them in the tent, it still feels quite embarrassing!
Lou Xi felt that this was the best, took her hand, and walked directly into the tent. Before Ye Xingchen could stand still, he was dragged in by him. He was about to speak, but suddenly stopped talking.

In the tent, several soldiers had already fallen in disorder on the ground, all of them were sleeping soundly, breathing steadily, and snoring one after another, making people dare not disturb a single bit, they were really too tired, so tired that even A nap becomes bliss.

Li Yi also followed into the tent, pointed to the corner, and whispered, "Battle Commander, sister-in-law, that's for them, go there quickly!"

The two small floor mats are piled up with messy things. It is impossible to keep warm, but it makes people feel very warm.

"Come on!" Lou Xi said in a low voice.

Ye Xingchen couldn't resist such warmth, so he nodded slightly.

The two walked around the soldiers on the ground lightly, walked to the corner, and lay down gently.

Lou Xi took off her coat and covered her body, Ye Xingchen tugged lightly to cover it for him, and the two quietly embraced each other and fell asleep.

I was really tired and sleepy, but after I fell down, I couldn't fall asleep, or rather, I couldn't bear to sleep.

She leaned on his shoulder and met this side after going through hardships, but she didn't know where he would go after dawn, so she subconsciously clung to him, at least for this night, he was by her side.

"Go to sleep!" He ordered in a deep voice.

She closed her eyes forcefully, raised the corners of her mouth, turned over slightly, and adjusted a comfortable posture, but something in the pocket of her jacket suddenly clicked her, and she opened her eyes again.

"What's wrong?" he asked concerned.

Ye Xingchen sat up gently, unbuttoned his white coat to reveal the clothes inside, and took out two rings from the left breast pocket of his jacket, which were their wedding rings.

He can't wear any jewelry, so he hasn't worn the wedding ring since he bought it, and she has hardly ever worn it, because it is inconvenient to wear a ring for patient examinations or operations, so this ring has been kept. Fell, but before leaving that night, she turned out the ring, put it in her pocket, and kept it close to her heart. She hoped that this would bring good luck to both of them.

She handed the female ring to him, and said softly, "I'm not in the military camp now, can you put it in your pocket, isn't it a violation of the rules?"

Lou Xi took the female ring and rubbed it gently with her fingertips, feeling a soft feeling in her heart. After thinking about it, she said domineeringly yet gently, "There is no such rule, but I will admit it!"

He put the ring in his pocket, which was also on the left chest, closest to the heart.

Ye Xingchen raised his lips slightly, and put away his men's ring again, happiness filled his entire chest.

The next morning, before dawn, the soldiers started rescue operations again. This is already the fifth day after the earthquake, and the situation in the disaster area is still very serious, because the golden 72 hours of rescue have passed, and they were buried in The hope of survival for the masses underground is getting slimmer and slimmer, and every extra piece of soil they dig can give the wounded a little more chance of breathing and life.

The physical strength of the soldiers has long been exhausted, but the support team has not arrived for a long time, because the road to E City has collapsed again, and motor vehicles are basically unable to move forward. It is reported that hundreds of officers and soldiers of a certain motor division are rushing on foot. Due to the bad weather, a paratrooper reconnaissance company failed to carry out the parachute reconnaissance mission as planned, and the parachute operation was forced to cancel. The military region was reassigned by the deputy commander to rush to repair the only mountain road day and night. The support troops can go deep into the front line of the disaster area, and the people in the disaster area can have hope.

More than half a day passed, and they finally received good news. The road was successfully repaired, and support troops and more medical teams, as well as more medicines, food, quilts, tents and other materials, would be shipped there.

In addition, the Second Artillery has deployed hundreds of officers and soldiers from various national defense construction sites to form a large-scale construction machinery unit, carrying heavy excavators, loaders and other machinery, and is rushing here. If this is the case, the search and rescue operation will be greatly accelerated.

In this way, the situation in the disaster area will improve, and the soldiers of the special brigade will be evacuated soon, because they have more important tasks to perform. Lou Xi will lead the other nine people to carry out the secret mission according to the original plan. The rest of the people will continue to stay in the disaster area, but not in this area anymore. They will go to places that are more dangerous, more difficult, and more needed.

Before the arrival of the rescue team, the disaster area still operated according to the previous procedures, but the affected people began to move one after another, gathering near the medical point, and when the trucks came in, they would be moved to a safer place.

Some of the masses lost their relatives, some lost their lovers, and some lost their children in the earthquake. There are all kinds of situations, and they themselves have suffered injuries to varying degrees. They collapsed, and their instinctive desire to survive made them impatient when they heard that the support troops were coming. The armed police soldiers organized the order on the scene to prevent crowding or any accidents.

Soldiers of the People's Liberation Army continued to dig, searching for survivors. A high school student was crushed under the gravel, with half of his body exposed. He was already dying, but still alive. The high school student's mother was rescued first, and rushed towards him crying. , the soldiers quickly pulled her away, the medical staff were busy, Ye Xingchen just let go, and grabbed the woman, another doctor squatted down to check the situation of the high school student, breathing very weak , but it will take some time for the soldiers to completely dig out his body, so the doctors decided to give the high school student a drip first, to replenish his strength, and then gave the needle. Ye Xingchen helped hold the hanging bottle, and left himself I donated half a bottle of water to him, and fed him to drink. The soldiers worked together and tried various methods, and finally rescued the high school student, put him on a stretcher, and immediately sent him to the tent for continued treatment. It was quite lucky. Because the rescue was timely, the water was replenished in time, and the medication was timely, there was no danger to his life. Unfortunately, he had to have his limb amputated.
