Han Yu patted Old Cao on the arm, thought for a moment, and then said very seriously and sincerely, "Uncle Cao, you guys are the main force for our battalion's soil transportation. When we get to the flood-fighting frontline, we'll be relying on you!"
Old Cao scratched his neck and grinned, "You've come to the right place for soil transport, but we're not leaving today. Master Sun told us to wait a while and go to the Lingda Car Ferry to load the trailers onto the ferry."
"Master Sun might not have made it clear. The trailers will go by water while you guys will travel by bus."
"We're taking the big bus too?"
"It's mainly a safety consideration. If you go earlier, you can get familiar with the roads and terrain. Once the trailers arrive, you can get right into action."
"Then there's no need to bring the trailers inside."
