Chapter 276 Humanitarianism
"The water has really gone down, folks, come and see!"
Yesterday, the woman said that the flood would recede in three days, but they still didn't believe it.
But in just one night, it dropped three or four meters.
Upon hearing the news, the affected people rushed out.
"God has opened his eyes, and we are saved."
The cheers were deafening and sweat was pouring down.
Even if both sides don't know what the situation is on the other side.
But everyone knows that they are building a life channel.
The faster the river recedes, the more chances there are for those on the other side to survive.
Countless laborers were working outside with pickaxes to dig canals.
Seeing such a scene, not only the people over there would not believe it, even the foreign merchants floating in the sky would not believe it.
Looking through the telescope, I saw that the laborers' hands were covered with blisters and their shoes were torn, but they kept waving.
If they had the chance, they would really like to meet this princess who mobilized all the people.
Unfortunately, they are foreign merchants from northern Xinjiang, not southern Xinjiang.
And this time, they also guessed why the Su family clerk wanted to take them on a free flight tour.
Before they were invaded by the Northern Rong, they traveled along the land Silk Road with the intact Nanling.
Now, the arrival of more than a dozen small countries only made the three kings have some concerns.
If the emperor did not allow her to be rescued, the news would immediately spread to more than a dozen small countries in the surrounding area.
He said that the three kings were tyrannical and unjust, and that they would not save the people themselves, nor would they allow others to do so.
Whoever comes forward with this idea will be cursed by the world. That princess is really quite interesting.
Such a funny idea.
However, it is also a helpless move.
Who said this is marginal politics?
If one is not careful, he will be suspected of treason.
But with so many merchants and dignitaries from small countries witnessing it with their own eyes, it would be difficult for the three kings to come out and be despised.
Three days
It really was just three days.
After selecting the flood discharge channel, they acted in unison and pushed forward vigorously, almost before the deadline.
It was as if the civilians who were mobilized in the three states were afraid that their princess would be accused of breaking her promise.
It took only three days to dig a long canal.
Even though the skin on their hands was rubbed raw, they had no complaints at all.
In the end, they lived up to the princess's trust.
However, according to reports from people in southern Xinjiang, the situation there is still not optimistic.
The reason is simple: there are no tools and no drainage ditches.
The floodwaters in the low-lying areas could not be drained away and accumulated in small patches.
But the people here cannot get through.
Allowing a hot air balloon to cross the airspace without diplomatic channels is already a violation of the law.
If there were no airspace laws here, he would have been convicted long ago.
After hearing about the situation over there, the people here who have been paying close attention to this matter have become extremely worried.
There were some poor people with quick legs who rushed to the border with the neighboring state, hoping to make a living there.
But they were ruthlessly pushed back by the Beirong soldiers stationed there.
They threatened that since they were grateful to their God for saving them, they should ask the God to sprinkle sweet dew on the willow branches, so that the dead trees would come back to life and the destroyed fields would become fertile.
Otherwise, if you go somewhere else, you will bring disaster.
The Beirong people were a nomadic people, and every time a natural disaster struck, a large number of cattle, sheep and livestock would inevitably die of disease.
Even if the people in those two states survive, it will still bring danger to other places.
Although there was no direct order from the King of Beirong, they still followed the border sealing measures they would take when encountering floods.
…
After the river receded, the bodies left behind had not yet been buried.
The voices and smiles of their loved ones are still before their eyes, but they no longer have the chance to survive.
They wanted to step forward and argue with the barbaric Beirong soldiers, but they were too weak and were no match for the strong men.
Looking at the ruthless faces of the Beirong soldiers, the people did not want to endure this unfair treatment any longer.
Just when they were about to risk their lives to find a way to survive for their children, the radio rang again.
It is said that medicine and food have been placed at the border town line to help them get through this difficult period.
All the survivors cried bitterly.
Even their way to survival was ruthlessly blocked by the enemy soldiers, and they thought they could only fight with all their might.
Without caring about their sadness, they took the radio and walked back quickly.
I was afraid that if I was a step slower, it would be taken away by those Northern Rong soldiers.
Fortunately, the Beirong soldiers never thought that so many of them would survive, so they did not take any precautions at all.
They have no way to retreat. If the Beirong soldiers dare to compete with them for food, they will fight them to the death.
Meanwhile, soothing words continued to blare from the radio.
Divide them into ten districts, with 100,000 people in each district. In one district, form a team of 1,000 people each, for a total of 100 teams.
The team leader elects the district chief and collects relief supplies according to regulations.
After the captain is elected, there are the following tasks.
1. Divide the team members into groups, with some responsible for building houses, draining floodwaters, and other tasks.
2. Logistics staff, medical staff, kitchen cleaning and other miscellaneous items.
3. Breeding personnel will be explained later.
4. Cremation and burial of corpses must be carried out strictly in accordance with the requirements.
The remaining personnel who have not been assigned tasks are allocated to the elderly and children.
Even if they didn't understand, they knew that this woman wanted to save them.
Whether it's one day or two, they need to survive.
Therefore, the exhausted victims automatically distributed themselves on the road according to instructions.
Since they are from two states, they need to be divided into five districts in each state.
On the way back, the radio gave clear instructions over and over again without getting tired of it.
Perhaps it was the will to survive that allowed them to complete the partition quickly on the road.
Actually, it’s very easy to do.
It can be based on the previous village or county town.
One person is selected from a thousand people, and the one hundred people who are selected will then nominate another person.
This is the district chief.
There are ten district heads in total.
This is not difficult... It's not difficult...
Bao Er withdrew his telescope from the hot air balloon and sighed silently, "There really are a million people..."
After saying that, he felt a little regretful, thinking that he shouldn't have said that, and slapped himself hard in the face.
"I saved so many people. If I knew about this, I would say I didn't bring shame to them."
But, with so many people...how can we take full responsibility?
He sighed again before ringing the walkie-talkie.
Of course, this wireless phone can only contact intelligence stations a few kilometers away.
In order to promptly inform the princess who is six thousand miles away of the situation, intelligence personnel are still needed to convey the message.
It's their fault that all the electric and radio cables they laid were destroyed.
It was all in vain.
Three states!
Just thinking about it, he felt sorry for the princess.
I don’t know how the princess can bear such great pressure.
Bao Er waved his hand to let everyone return, watched as order was slowly restored below, selected a captain, and moved towards the supply location.
At the same time, the situation on the front line has been brought to the screen.
No rendering, no retouching.
The people of Nanling, who are worried about their other compatriots, can see the situation on the other side directly.
While the "documentary" was being played, Su Shengsheng also made an appeal at the radio station.
She just made a statistical analysis based on random checks.
Now there are really one million victims waiting to be rescued, which makes her feel heavy in her heart but also relieved.
It is also due to the geographical location of that place. Unlike Quzhou and Wenzhou, where there are many lakes, the flood situation is not so serious.
The continuous heavy rain gave them the opportunity to run to higher ground.
The Nanling River burst its banks because of a sudden rise in water levels upstream.
It's a blessing in disguise.
