These events naturally reached the ears of people in Tan County and Xu County immediately.
They were filled with remorse. They were also engaged in rescue efforts, but they were severely understaffed.
They went to find the Miao people, but the Miao people were busy, as they also had tasks to complete.
Right now, Tan County is in Daobeizhai, hoping that the two chief chiefs of Lanmiao and Huamiao will send 3,000 people to other villages for disaster relief.
But--
Before the chief of the Blue Miao tribe could even speak, the walkie-talkie hidden in his raincoat crackled to life in the heavy rain.
"Chief Chief, Chief Chief, several villages in front of Daobei Village are about to be flooded. The power lines have been cut in the river."
"Listen up, all of you! Forget about the house, quickly send someone who knows about electricity to cut off the main power supply."
"Yes, I'll do it right away."
"Chieftain, Chieftain, we've found the blockage. We've checked, and as long as it's cleared, the floodwaters can be released." The voice on the walkie-talkie was different; it must be from somewhere else.
The chief of the village stared at the heavy rain and shouted, "Check immediately and clear the water. But remember the instructions of my future Miao king: everyone who goes in must wear life jackets and tie ropes around their waists. Those on the shore, listen up: if you see anything wrong, pull those who have gone into the water up immediately. Human life comes first!"
"Understood, Chief Chief."
"Chief Chief, Chief Chief--"
Another Miao voice came through the walkie-talkie: "This side of the canyon has collapsed, and the houses have collapsed too! But we evacuated early, so there were no casualties."
"Move quickly, move quickly..."
…
The chief and his men were too busy to talk to Tan County; all the thousands of Miao people here were busy with their own affairs.
In the rain, every Miao person passing by was wearing a raincoat and water shoes, as if they were facing a formidable enemy.
In contrast, in Tan County, very few people wore raincoats, because the raincoats in the shops were snapped up the moment the rainstorm hit.
But when Tan County and the others saw this scene, they felt terrible.
Because these are all their responsibilities, but the Miao people do them themselves, and they take care of the rescue and response themselves.
On the cement road over there, trucks drove in an orderly fashion, and many Miao women braved the heavy rain to carry vegetables they had picked from the fields.
These are all destined for Rongjiang.
"Tan County--"
Lan Miao and Zhao Akang's wife ran over, wiped the water droplets from their faces, and said:
"Although the Blue Miao and Flower Miao branches have tens of thousands of able-bodied Miao people that can be mobilized, most of them are already on assignment. If you try to find the two chief chiefs now, it's one thing if they don't have time, but even if—"
“Even if they have time, they can’t just send Miao people out randomly, because they’re afraid it will affect Achen’s overall plans.”
"So if you need to borrow someone, you should still ask Ah Chen."
Shen Weixun's words were simple and clear.
Tan County knew that the Miao people were too busy to handle everything, but he didn't expect that so many Miao people would all have arrangements made.
So he didn't waste any time and made arrangements for his subordinates as he walked back.
This time, Tan County truly learned what the consequences of disobedience meant.
But when they reached the cement road, the scene before them shocked them once again.
Because they saw hundreds of Miao women washing, sorting, packing, and loading the picked vegetables onto trucks.
Several Miao people were also giving instructions from the side using walkie-talkies:
"Give the orders to everyone who is preparing the vegetables. We have enough manpower here. Wash the vegetables clean before packing them up."
"Package them properly, and clearly label which ones cannot be squeezed!"
"Also, immediately arrange for 500 men, anyone who can cook and prepare meals, to ride horses and go first. Those who go first should take the most urgently needed Miao medicine to the front lines—"
…
When Tan County and his colleagues saw the scene of thousands of people working busily, they watched as the various Miao leaders made arrangements using walkie-talkies.
Their eyes were red!
"Tan County, this—"
The people in the government office weren't made of iron; although they were unprepared, they witnessed many heartwarming scenes.
Tan County hadn't expected the Miao people to be so good at coordinating things.
“Elder Seven, Elder Seven, I am the elder of Yinjiao Miao Village. We need Miao doctors, we need Miao doctors, there are more than a dozen people injured.”
Tan Xian suddenly heard a voice on the walkie-talkie. He turned his head and saw an old Miao man wearing a raincoat on the embankment. It turned out to be the seventh elder of the Miao clan.
The elder of the Seventh Clan, holding a walkie-talkie, said loudly, "I heard you. Have them contact you immediately."
“The purple seedlings and the silver-horned seedlings need a Miao doctor. Contact them immediately and send someone over to treat the wounded.”
Miao medicine, emergency rescue, road clearing, logistical supplies, emergency response, ...
The Miao people had arranged everything, including all of that.
But just as Tan Xian and his group were about to leave to find Mu Achen, a voice came from the walkie-talkie in the hands of the Seventh Elder.
"Elder Seven, Elder Seven, I am the commander of the Miao army. The county road from Tianfeng to Rongjiang is blocked due to severe landslides. Achen orders that three thousand Miao people from Tianfeng be mobilized immediately to clear the road and ensure that supplies are delivered on time."
"Received! Tell Ah Chen that it has been received and will be arranged immediately."
“Five ethnic groups, five ethnic groups, in the south of the county town, the Miao branch needs support, the Miao branch needs support, at least five hundred people, requesting support.”
"Received, received, will arrange immediately."
…
In various parts of Tianfeng, the scenes that have unfolded in the past few days are all heartwarming and inspiring.
The Miao people are everywhere.
Their first priority was to save their Miao people.
As for non-Miao people, those who are willing to listen to the Miao people will work together to overcome the difficulties; those who are not willing will not be forced.
As for those who spoke rudely to the Miao people, the Miao people naturally ignored them.
