Reborn in the 1970s, remarried to a powerful but childless man, her scumbag husband is furious.

Chapter 182 The Zhang family is finally safe.

"Huo Yanchuan..." Wenrou's face lit up with joy when she saw Huo Yanchuan, and she excitedly called out to him.

She finally saw him, and seeing that he was alright, she was relieved.

Huo Yanchuan could no longer hold back. He took a few steps forward, ignoring the mud and water covering his body, and hugged the person in front of him tightly.

Gentlely held in his arms, feeling the familiar scent of Huo Yanchuan, she felt that all the hard work she had put in these past few days was finally worth it.

She couldn't help herself and reached out to hug his clothes, which were soaked with water.

Huo Yanchuan's hands were very cold, and his body had been soaking in the water for an unknown amount of time, making him look extremely weak and haggard.

Wenrou sensed that Huo Yanchuan's body temperature was so low, so she quickly had someone bring him a new set of clothes, as well as food and water.

"Quickly change into dry clothes, eat something and drink some water." Wenrou hurriedly handed him the things.

Huo Yanchuan reached out and took the clothes from her hand, and quickly changed into them.

Then he took the dry food that Wenrou had brought and ate it in big mouthfuls, followed by a few mouthfuls of water.

After he finally finished eating, he felt a little bit of strength returning to his body.

He was holding on entirely by his willpower, and even he himself didn't know how long he could hold on.

At that time, the images of Wenrou and his two daughters always appeared before his eyes.

With their support, Huo Yanchuan had a reason to persevere.

In addition, his training intensity in the army is heavier than that of ordinary people, and his physical fitness is also stronger than that of ordinary people, which is why he has been able to barely hold on until now.

But those soldiers who slack off during training, or some of the new recruits, don't have his stamina.

So far, a third of the people he brought have been swept away by the flood due to exhaustion.

How could Huo Yanchuan not be heartbroken? As the regimental commander, he watched helplessly as their bodies were swept away by the flood, unable to save them.

At this moment, my feelings of self-blame and guilt reached their peak.

They ultimately perished before the supplies arrived.

"Wife, what are you doing here?" After eating and drinking his fill, Huo Yanchuan finally felt like he had come back to life. He looked at Wenrou and asked with surprise and confusion.

They've lost all contact with the outside world, so how did Wenrou know they were short of supplies and deliver them so promptly?

"Would you believe me if I told you I had a dream?" she said gently.

Huo Yanchuan nodded. "I believe you. I'll believe whatever you say."

He knew that Wenrou could always foresee some things that would happen in the future, but he never expected that she could even foresee this flood.

Huo Yanchuan could no longer hold back and hugged her again.

"Thank you. With these supplies, we are saved." Huo Yanchuan was truly grateful to Wenrou from the bottom of his heart, grateful that she could come to his side in this life and that he had not missed her.

At this time, everyone else also received the supplies sent by Wenrou.

After eating and drinking their fill, everyone was full of energy again.

"This torrential rain should be over soon, hang in there a little longer." Wenrou calculated the time; in her previous life, the torrential rain lasted for more than forty days before it ended.

It has been raining for almost forty days since Huo Yanchuan came here.

"Yes, we'll hold on." Huo Yanchuan's confidence returned at this moment.

Seeing that Wenrou was soaked, Huo Yanchuan knew how difficult it had been for her to transport supplies all the way here, and his face was full of heartache.

"Wife, rest over there in the tent for a bit, I'll be back soon." Huo Yanchuan arranged for Wenrou to stay inside the tent, preventing her from getting any more wet in the rain.

She responded gently, and then saw him leading his men to continue their work.

Now that they have eaten and drunk their fill, their strength has quickly recovered.

Huo Yanchuan led his men in fighting the flood, while Wenrou helped him with logistical support from behind.

Wenrou's prediction was correct; she only stayed there for two days before the torrential rains that had lasted for more than a month finally stopped.

At this time, communication equipment gradually recovered.

Success was within reach, and everyone was very excited.

Once the rain stops, their work will be much easier.

As expected, the flood was finally contained three days later.

For the first time in days, everyone finally wore genuine smiles; they had successfully completed their mission.

But when they thought about the number of casualties in their unit, everyone's faces turned serious again.

They saw many drowned bodies at the foot of the mountain, including their comrades in military uniforms.

Seeing this, Huo Yanchuan's eyes reddened slightly. He gave those people a standard military salute and then ordered his men to continue searching for the missing comrades.

Wenrou stood beside him, feeling equally distressed.

Those were young lives, sacrificed just like that.

"If I had delivered the supplies sooner, so many people wouldn't have sacrificed their lives," Wenrou sighed.

"It's not your fault. You've done enough. If it weren't for you, many more comrades would have been swept away by the flood because they were exhausted, and I might not be standing here in good health." Huo Yanchuan reached out and hugged her, comforting her.

Wenrou knew that Huo Yanchuan must be feeling the most guilty and remorseful at this moment. He had personally brought those young people back, but what he brought back were their corpses.

Although sacrificing one's life as a soldier is inevitable, this kind of sacrifice is truly regrettable and heartbreaking.

"Commander, sister-in-law." At this moment, Gao Weidong also came over.

Seeing so many of his comrades' corpses, his face was filled with remorse.

"This time it was my fault. I didn't understand the situation in time, which led to this happening."

If he had received the information earlier, he could have minimized the losses.

"It's not your fault. Pass the order: everyone take a rest and prepare to return to the unit."

They've been searching here for three days and three nights, and none of them have slept much.

The supplies that Wenrou and the others sent have all been delivered; it's time to go back.

Their search and rescue capabilities were limited, and they could only find some of their comrades' bodies. Moreover, the bodies they found needed to be processed promptly, disinfected with bleach, and then buried in a suitable place.

After the torrential rains and floods receded, the weather gradually warmed up. Over time, these corpses would rot, and if they were not dealt with in time, they would cause an epidemic.

Huo Yanchuan also had to be responsible for his surviving comrades. They were at their mental and physical limits, so he had to bring them back as well.

"Yes," Gao Weidong replied, and then went down to instruct everyone to prepare.

In the afternoon, a car from the military region came to pick them up and take them back.

After getting on the bus, everyone was too exhausted to stay awake any longer and fell into a deep sleep.

Huo Yanchuan and Wenrou were sitting in a car. Seeing how tired he looked, Wenrou couldn't bear it.

"Why don't you lean on my shoulder and take a nap?" Huo Yanchuan hadn't slept for several days. His eyes were bloodshot, and his stubble had grown long. He looked as if all his energy had been drained, making people feel sorry for him.

Huo Yanchuan shook his head. Now, whenever he falls asleep, he thinks of his comrades who were swept away by the flood.

"You haven't been sleeping much these past few days, have you?" Although Huo Yanchuan was on the front lines fighting the floods, he had been keeping an eye on Wenrou's situation and knew that she hadn't been sleeping well either.

"I'm fine, I'm just worried about you." Wenrou said as she lay down in Huo Yanchuan's arms and hugged his waist.

These days, she hasn't had a single day without worry.

Sometimes he even dreams of being swept away by the flood, and several times he has been so frightened that he has woken up from the dream.

Huo Yanchuan reached out and hugged her tightly. The two of them embraced each other and leaned against each other without saying a word.

Political Commissar Zhao and Division Commander Tan had also heard the news of Huo Yanchuan's return with his team, so they were already waiting for them at the door.

They were aware of the situation in the disaster area, and they were surprised that their decision to send Wenrou to provide support was so correct.

If it weren't for Wenrou, their losses would have been even greater, and perhaps in the end, even Huo Yanchuan wouldn't have been able to return.

When the car finally arrived at the military base, everyone got off and gathered together.

After getting out of the car, Huo Yanchuan immediately spotted the two leaders, walked over, and saluted them.

"Huo Yanchuan has successfully completed his mission and is back to report for duty."

Seeing them return after barely escaping death, both leaders' eyes welled up with tears.

"It's good that you're back, it's good that you're back." Political Commissar Zhao walked over and gently patted Huo Yanchuan's shoulder.

"You've done very well. Go back and get some rest." Commander Tan had watched Huo Yanchuan grow up, and if something really happened to him, he wouldn't be able to explain it to his old commander.

Wenrou was standing to the side at that moment. When Commander Tan saw her, he waved to her and said, "Little girl, come here too."

Seeing this, Wenrou also walked to Huo Yanchuan's side.

"Yan Chuan, you married a good wife. If it weren't for her insistence on transporting supplies for you, the losses would have been much more severe than we anticipated. She deserves a great reward this time."

Commander Tan looked gentle, his eyes full of admiration.

"This is a true example of a military family member; she is a woman who is just as capable as any man. Well done!"

When Wenrou heard Commander Tan praise her so highly, she didn't dare to take credit and humbly said, "It's all what I should do."

"You should go back and rest first. We'll give you a few days off so you can spend some time with your families," Commander Tan said.

"Yes." Huo Yanchuan looked at Wenrou and stood at attention in response to Commander Tan.

On the way back from the army, Huo Yanchuan reached out and tightly grasped Wenrou's hand, as if it were all a dream.

Wenrou looked at the family compound getting closer and closer. Since she came here, she never thought that one day she would miss the days in the family compound so much.

This is their home; they've finally come home.

"Let's go home," Wenrou said to Huo Yanchuan.

Huo Yanchuan echoed her, "Yes, let's go home."

Apart from Huo Yanchuan and Wenrou, everyone else had already gone home.

Once they entered the residential compound, they could see Li Xiuying and Jiang Yan waiting for them at the entrance from afar.

"Aunt Xiaorou, Uncle Huo!" Jiang Yan ran towards them excitedly when he saw them.

Jiang Yan didn't know that Wenrou left that night. When he woke up the next day, Wenrou was already on her way to the disaster area.

Upon learning this news, Jiang Yan, at a young age, took on the responsibility of supporting the family, helping Li Xiuying with chores and taking care of his three younger sisters every day.

He watches the news every day, trying to learn more about the disaster area, and silently prays that Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan will return soon.

He certainly wanted to be gentle with them, but in order not to worry Li Xiuying, he could only keep it to himself.

How could Li Xiuying not know? Seeing Jiang Yan's sensible manner, she felt bad too.

Wenrou used to say that Jiang Yan was precocious, and Li Xiuying now realizes that he is indeed much more sensible than other children, sometimes so sensible that it breaks your heart.

"Xiao Yan." Wenrou watched him run towards her and reached out to hug him.

"I knew you would come back safely. Come in quickly, the food is ready, you must be hungry." Li Xiuying felt sorry for Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan when she saw their tired faces.

"Yes, thank you, Mom," Huo Yanchuan said.

With him and Wenrou not around, Li Xiuying had been helping to take care of his two children, so Huo Yanchuan's thanks were well-deserved.

Wenrou led Jiang Yan inside, and after taking a hot shower and changing into clean clothes, she finally felt better.

Huo Yanchuan also took a shower, changed his clothes, shaved his beard, and cleaned himself up before coming out.

"Have Xiaorou and Yanchuan returned?" Wen Jiguang and Liu Xiaoyu rushed over upon hearing the news.

Seeing that Wenrou and Huo Yanchuan had returned safely, the two were finally relieved.

"Big brother, sister-in-law," Wenrou greeted them when she saw them.

"It's good that you're alright, it's good that you're back."

These days, Wen Jiguang keeps a radio in front of him while he works, so that he can hear news from the disaster area in a timely manner.

Hearing that so many soldiers had sacrificed their lives in the disaster area, he was also worried about whether Huo Yanchuan and Wenrou would be alright.

Now that they've finally returned, he feels much more at ease.

"Everyone must be hungry, come and eat." Liu Xiaoyu helped Li Xiuying bring the food out of the kitchen.

At this moment, the family finally sat together and enjoyed a reunion dinner.

After dinner, Huo Yanchuan and Wenrou went inside and lay down on the bed to fall asleep. The others knew they were tired, so they didn't disturb them.

Next door, Zhu Chao also returned at this time. He and Gao Weidong were in charge of the perimeter this time, so they didn't encounter any dangerous situations.

To his surprise, as soon as he entered the room, a small child ran out from inside.

Zhu Chao was taken aback, wondering why there was a child in the house, a little boy who looked to be only four or five years old.

"Mom, Xiaomei," Zhu Chao called out as he entered the house.

Hearing the sound, Sun Mei was startled and quickly came out of the house. When she saw Zhu Chao, a hint of guilt flashed in her eyes.

She heard that the situation in the disaster area was serious and that many soldiers had sacrificed their lives.

She hadn't heard from Zhu Chao for so long, and thought he had also...
