The fireman carried the trapped old man on his back At 11:48 on the 11th, an old man was trapped at home due to flood in qingshuijing village, Longshan Town, Fogang County, Qingyuan City. After receiving the alarm, firefighters of Fogang County fire rescue brigade immediately went to the scene for rescue. "Most of the houses are rural bungalows, which are in low-lying terrain as a whole. The water flow on the site is fast, and the water depth has reached our knees." According to firefighters, they waded across the river under the protection of traction rope according to the site conditions, put on life jackets for the elderly and take protective measures. Then, another group of firefighters tightened the rope and used the rope protection to slowly guide the elderly to move. When the road is slippery and inconvenient to walk, firefighters carry the old man on their back and move forward carefully. After about an hour of intensive rescue, the old man was safely transferred to a safe area. At 3:38 a.m. on the same day, people were trapped near Beishan dairy farm, Dongcheng Town, Yangjiang City.

Finally, three children and one adult were successfully transferred to a safe area. At 6:00 on the 11th, Zhongshan meteorological observatory upgraded the rainstorm warning in the southern area (Sanxiang, Tanzhou, Banfu and Shenwan) to red.

After receiving the call for help, the two firefighters comforted the old man's mood while wading and carrying the old man to the hospital.
