Yu Sui hid in the space and went to buy some old newspapers.
Many newspapers reported that the flood in a certain province was very serious. However, most of the newspapers were just text, and only a few had photos. Some people could be seen sitting on the roof waiting for rescue, and everything else was just a vast ocean. The rest of the situation was not very clear.
In the end, Yu Sui had no choice but to buy a newspaper published more than a month to two months after the incident.
Finally, there was a summary report on the disaster in these newspapers, saying that the flood caused by the reservoir collapse had affected more than 10 million people in a certain province, killed more than 26,000 people, destroyed more than 10,000 houses, killed more than 300,000 livestock, and even destroyed more than 10 kilometers of railway.
Yu Sui fell to the ground in the empty space, unable to speak for a long time.
Just from these figures, one can imagine how severe the disaster was in that province at that time!
This matter was unknown to her in later generations.
At her age, how would she know if there were no elderly people from that province around her to talk about it?
If Yu Sui had not always been aware of Yu Qiu's existence and remained vigilant about Yu Qiu's rebirth, then when she listened to the radio today, she would have just sighed like Yu Haichao and Sun Yuying, "Oh, someone was affected by the disaster in that place," and that was it.
At this moment, Yu Sui was thinking about the people who suffered from the flood and felt very sad.
She couldn't help but start thinking, how great it would have been if she hadn't stopped Yu Qiu that day!
If she hadn't stopped Yu Qiu and escaped, would she have been able to save these people in advance?
This kind of question made Yu Sui feel at a loss as to whether to sit or stand. She just felt a strong sense of guilt.
Yu Sui felt that if she didn't find the real cause of the collapse of the sixty reservoirs, she would be stuck in this matter forever and blame herself endlessly.
She began to search the replacement space for newspapers and books related to the matter.
Still can find it.
Finally, she saw in a research report that such a serious disaster would require the country to conduct a comprehensive study with the help of various new technologies thirty years later.
The country invited experts and scholars from all over the world to dig deep into the root of the incident, and found that half of the disaster was caused by special weather conditions and historically rare heavy rains, but the other half was also due to human error.
First, there was an error in the weather forecast.
There were no advanced weather observation systems in those days, and most of the time we could only observe the clouds with our naked eyes. However, this natural disaster was caused by multiple climate factors, and relying on human observation was completely unreliable. The weather forecast said there would only be light rain in the near future, but who knew it would be a rare downpour like torrential rain.
The second reason is that a large number of reservoirs and dams were built in a certain province.
As early as the construction of the various dams, some people raised objections, saying that this was not a good idea and would easily cause floods in the plains.
However... due to various ideological reasons at that time, such a proposal did not attract attention.
It can be said that the mistakes that caused this disaster were already made when the dams were built. Therefore, let alone Yu Qiu, who was determined to be a madman, trying to stop it, even if the supreme leader came, he could not change anything.
Yu Qiu simply used this topic to attract attention.
Yu Sui understood all this in detail and felt a little relieved.
But after reading these research reports carefully, I found that this disaster is more than what we see.
Due to the overall backward communication and transportation in today's society, the flood destroyed the railway, interrupted communication, and various supplies were in short supply, so it would be slow to resolve the disaster.
Yu Sui only heard a few words about the disaster victims on the radio, but in reality, they were soaking in water, struggling on the rooftops, and waiting for rescue.
If we wait like this, we will have to wait for at least ten days. Only after the rain stops and the rain has blown up some dams to drain the floodwaters can the water gradually recede.
But it is summer now, and even if the water recedes, there will still be a large number of deaths and affected lives.
Once the water recedes and the temperature rises, there is no time to deal with the dead bodies, and feces and other things are mixed in. All local water sources will be polluted and diseases will breed.
The hospital was rushed, who would save them?
Thinking of this, Yu Sui felt extremely heavy in her heart.
What should we do? Should we just watch these people die?
As a normal person, it would be fine if I didn't know these things, but knowing them but being unable to help makes me feel really uncomfortable.
The biggest disaster Yu Sui can remember was the 2008 earthquake.
She was still in school at that time, but whenever she had free time, she would watch the latest developments on TV. She cried every time she watched, and even donated all her New Year's money, just hoping that those affected by the disaster would be safe.
But nowadays, communication and internet are so backward. Even if she wants to donate money, she doesn’t know who to donate to.
Yu Sui would circle around in the space for a while, then go out of the room and circle around again.
in a hurry.
It was still raining outside, but not heavily. It looked as if it would clear up here in my hometown tomorrow, but the old newspapers showed that it would still rain in that disaster-stricken province, raining continuously and violently.
It's really like when it rains it pours. No, no, now people have no houses left and are struggling in the ocean!
Yu Sui thought about it anxiously, and read all the reports related to this incident again. Finally, she came to the conclusion that the most likely place to go for rescue in the near future was the military region in her province.
The most trustworthy people in our country are our soldiers.
So, she thought of a way to send some supplies to the relevant military regions, and have them take them away, so that they could help the victims.
Yu Sui immediately picked up her bag and went out with an umbrella.
Sun Yuying saw that she was about to go out and asked quickly, "Sui, where are you going?"
"Mom, I have nothing to do on this rainy day, so I want to go to the office to send a letter to Xia Linsheng."
"Didn't you send it two days ago?"
"Then I'm thinking about him again, isn't that okay?"
Sun Yuying and Yu Haichao looked at each other, and Yu Haichao looked away embarrassedly.
Sun Yuying looked at Yu Sui with a frown: "You little girl, how can you say such words to a man? Are you ashamed? Don't say it again in the future. Go away, you are such a bitch!"
Obviously, Sun Yuying misunderstood.
But as long as I can go out and do things, let the misunderstanding be.
Yu Sui held up an umbrella and left in a flash.
After leaving the village, Yu Sui got a motorcycle from the space, put herself in a raincoat, and headed to the county town.
All the way while driving, her mind was busy, thinking about what she could provide to the disaster area.
By the time the motorcycle arrived at the county, Yu Sui had basically decided what she wanted to donate, which were compressed biscuits, disinfectant, and flashlights.
Because these three items are in urgent need, it is also difficult to identify the era of these three items.
