Chapter 1831: Chapter 1831: Rescue
Her guess was correct; all three letters were sent up, connected to the flood, the higher-ups were very concerned about this matter and organized related personnel for discussion overnight.
The next day, three teams composed of geological environment monitoring and geological exploration personnel departed from Capital City to Sichuan Province, beginning on-site environment monitoring and geological survey sampling.
Meanwhile, documents were issued to local government departments, notifying them to prepare for emergencies. Various units also received tasks for geological disaster drills, which included fire and earthquake escape drills at schools, malls, factories, and densely populated areas.
It was required that local governments, units, and departments actively cooperate to implement this task, and the higher-ups dispatched more than a dozen inspection teams to various places to supervise and inspect.
Two months later, multiple monitoring point data showed abnormalities, especially the situation at groundwater monitoring points was particularly obvious, and data was promptly reported upwards.
In the early hours of May 11th, notifications were issued at various levels, mandating the evacuation of areas within 50 miles of the region with abnormal monitoring data by noon on the 12th, with local party members and cadres playing an active role.
It was another war without gunfire; leaders at all levels took action, from notifications to urging, then persuading, finally enforcing, and by noon, most people had evacuated, leaving only a small group of stubborn individuals unwilling to leave.
Ultimately, the cadres could only relocate these people to relatively flat areas and temporarily advise them not to return to their homes, though some remained indifferent.
As in the past, not a second off, first, the glass on the windows shattered with a bang, followed by the earth shaking and mountains quaking, the sky collapsing, then heavy rain began to fall, leaving those who hadn’t left utterly stunned.
The flat area where they were located was instantly buried by the remains of collapsed houses, leaving no chance to escape.
Luo Qiao was among the first to sign up for the medical aid team; they flew to Mianyang and then followed the officials transporting supplies to the disaster area.
Although early warnings were issued, and most people evacuated, some did not pay enough attention, merely moving from their homes to flat areas outdoors. Some were injured by debris from collapsed houses, and others by stones rolling down the mountains. Meanwhile, aftershocks continued to occur.
Honestly, it’s impossible to have no casualties; being able to evacuate so many people within a day and a half is already remarkable. Now a large number of troops have started rescue operations.
Before boarding the plane, Luo Qiao called Xu Shifan, instructing branches to prepare donations and materials. The top priority was disaster relief and transporting supplies.
So, when she landed in Mianyang, a large amount of relief supplies was already loaded onto trucks and dispatched from various locations. This time, all branches under Yipin, including overseas companies, promptly took action.
No matter how strong one is, being on-site is unbearable; it’s different from what one sees on television, truly heartbreaking to the point of suffocation. Wherever you go, all houses are collapsed, evacuated people patting their chests with lingering fear, all extremely grateful to the government, with some later joining the rescue efforts.
Later, rescue units and groups arriving from various places also began search and rescue operations. Luo Qiao and her team treated injured individuals sent over in the temporarily set-up tents.
