crisis management game.
Chapter 159
Be it trainset, Fatima, or Anurag.
Gu Ji has only one purpose:
Let the central cabinet government of India come forward.
This is not just to complete the game objectives and tasks, but Assam is indeed in trouble at present.
The state government's existing emergency rescue force is simply not enough to deal with such a large-scale flood attack. If Gu Ji hadn't repeatedly emphasized that he had moved a large number of victims near the river bank in advance, I don't know how many people would be washed away by the flood!
Anurag pursed his lips in the receiver, hesitatingly said:
"The situation you predicted may indeed happen, and the situation is serious, but even if I report it to the central cabinet now, from holding an emergency meeting to making decisions and mobilizing troops from the military region, it may take half a day at the fastest, and then..."
"Minister, so I suggest that you call on hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in disaster shelters to publish disaster relief petitions on online media, and then contact the director of the NDMA National Disaster Management Agency and the secretary of the Ministry of Environment, bypassing the cabinet secretary and cabinet ministers, and directly report to the Prime Minister's Office !"
As Anurag said, India's central cabinet government is more complex than state governments.
India has a prime minister cabinet system. Under the prime minister, there are cabinet ministers and ministerial secretaries, which are equivalent to the ministers and executive deputy ministers of various ministries and commissions in our country. After the double approval of the two, the documents and reports will enter the hands of the cabinet secretary. The Cabinet Secretary is the highest head of the Indian executive branch system, directly under the Prime Minister, and is responsible for linking the Prime Minister's Office and different Indian government executive departments.
Let’s not talk about the time wasted by layers of approval.
The most important thing is that many high-ranking ministers are useless at all, especially when it comes to emergency response, they lack crisis sensitivity.
This is mainly because many of India's democratically elected ministers are political cadres from different parties, or simply came to power through the nepotism of party leaders. Therefore, it can be said that they have basically no relevant experience in managing the business of specific national departments. Even know nothing about it.
Regarding this point, Gu Ji also studied typical negative cases in the anti-terrorism emergency response course at the university.
That is the famous "11.26 Mumbai terrorist attack".
Among them, the teacher named and pointed out that the Minister of Home Affairs of India completely lacked corresponding emergency training for the CRPF Central Reserve Police Force, and the National Security Guard, that is, the Indian Special Police Force also lacked the most basic emergency response speed. It took an hour and a half to make a decision. It took 10 hours to arrive at the scene of the attack, and even made an international joke that "the special police arrived at the scene by bus", resulting in the death of hundreds of innocent people.
Gu Ji didn't want to fail this mission again, losing his arm and losing his kidney, so he could only resort to "sinister tricks".
Anurag has lived in the Indian officialdom for a long time, and he knows that it is a taboo in the officialdom to report to the higher level.
But I have to say that if you take extraordinary measures in extraordinary times, one minute faster at this time may save the life of one more victim, so I grinned and agreed.
"You have so many ways, kid! I will start to do it. You and Fatima must do our best to ensure the safety of the victims in the train. In an emergency, if you really can't, just abandon the car and run away. It's better than drowning in it alive!"
"Yes! Minister!"
Gu Ji knew that Anurag was a practical official, so he would definitely agree with his approach.
Next.
Just wait!Wait for the central government's aid to be approved!
But Gu Ji did not sit still completely. After putting down the phone, he first ordered the train to cover the red cloth with a flashlight or light source at regular intervals of 10 knots, waving it outward, and pasted a few reflective flags he bought on the window glass. so that rescue teams can easily spot them.
Then he went straight to the No. 2 compartment, which is the sanitation security compartment.
Along the way, the emergency lighting in some carriages was still there, and some carriages were severely damaged and pitch-black. Only the black faces reflected by the light of the white mobile phones of the victims could be seen.
The raging flood is still hitting both sides of the glass of the train, but it may be that the initial raging period has passed, the water level has gradually dropped, and it has fallen back to the half of the window. The Indian soldiers are still busy dealing with the water leakage in the compartment, while the victims are Under the arrangement of Fatima, the network is constantly refreshed, trying to send the disaster situation in the car to the network.
Seeing Gu Ji approaching, Fatima briefly reported the results.
"Government officials are actively seeking help from the nearby state governments. At present, only two have been contacted. Manipur has clearly refused, but Galaya has promised to send police firefighters to rescue. Because of the heavy rain, the mobile phones of the victims Without a network signal, many situations and videos cannot be sent out!"
"This is caused by the damage to the signal base station and the communication congestion caused by many people online at the same time in a short period of time. According to batches, a train compartment sends messages, and pictures are sent first. Also, take more pictures of soldiers."
Gu Ji glanced at the Indian soldier, and whispered in Fatima's ear.
Maybe it's because of the difference between men and women in India. Fatima was a little flustered by his "close" gesture, her ears turned red when she "rubbed", she lowered her head, and just fiddled with her clothes at a loss.
She didn't realize it until Gu Ji was far away.
The reason why Gu Ji asked Fatima to take more photos of soldiers is simple. On the one hand, it is to publicize the positive image of soldiers, which is equivalent to putting the Indian military region on the moral high ground. On the other hand, it is also to attract the attention of the military.
If they don't send additional troops to support them, they can only watch the nearly 120 soldiers on the train drown alive.
When you come to the vicinity of the No. 2 carriage, the carriage is lit with orange lanterns.
From the door, Gu Ji heard a lot of screams and groans. He grabbed one of the emergency female doctors who was wearing a white coat and had a red dot on her eyebrows and asked, "How's the situation?"
"It's not optimistic. At present, 8 people have died on the train, 7 of whom died of suffocation in the stampede incident, 1 person just passed away due to excessive blood loss, and the remaining 13 people were seriously injured, and 64 people were slightly injured. This carriage is very serious. The most important thing is that the medical resources in the train are very limited, tourniquets and bandages are no longer enough, and several patients are almost unable to survive and need blood transfusion as soon as possible.”
The female doctor with red dots shook her head, speaking very anxiously.
Gu Ji immediately threw down the backpack and found all the bandages, freeze-dried chitosan hemostatic dressing, and spinning tourniquet inside, leaving only two sets of hemostatic bandages for his own spare, "You list the patients who are seriously injured and need blood transfusions. When a list comes out, I will ask the soldiers to find volunteers on the train to donate blood."
When the red-dot female doctor saw these medical supplies, she was so surprised that she poked there like a piece of wood.
The hemostatic dressing that Gu Ji carried alone was almost equivalent to 20.00% of the medical supplies of the entire train. What the emergency personnel did not expect was that his method of hemostasis was no less than that of professional doctors and nurses, and even the processing speed was much faster than those present. Everyone needs to be more professional.
In fact, when Gu Ji first purchased medical supplies, he focused on hemostasis. Other related antidiarrheal, anti-inflammatory, antibiotics and other drugs were rarely purchased.
Whether it is a disaster, an accident, or an injury caused by a man-made attack, more or less blood loss will occur.
The tactical first aid he studied follows the principle of "MARCH", that is, the initial treatment of the wounded is carried out in the order of controlling massive bleeding, opening the airway, ensuring breathing, blood circulation, and dealing with head injury and hypothermia.
Among them, blood loss is the most urgent threat to the lives of the wounded, and it must be treated with priority in the first aid system; taking the battlefield with the highest mortality rate as an example, fatal bleeding accounts for about 85% of preventable war injuries number one cause of death.
Therefore, the control of massive bleeding is the first priority.
After Gu Ji handed over all the medical supplies to the female doctor, while helping to deal with the injuries, he turned his head to the injured in the carriage and shouted loudly: "Please persevere, the state government has sent a boat rescue team to come , when the time comes, I will give priority to sending seriously injured patients to the hospital for treatment, so you must not give up hope of survival!"
"Thank you, honorable Mr. Viddy!"
"Ahem... Mr. Vidi, you must be the apostle sent by Lord Shiva to save us. I must thank you for your generous help!"
As he said that, one of the Indian uncles who was bleeding from his head was about to kneel down from his seat and was hurriedly stopped by the medical staff on the side.
Most of the injured victims here are people of low caste. For them, they have never received such attention.
Not to mention that the "Vidi" played by Gu Ji is also a person of high caste, which is equivalent to the ancient dignitaries who are sympathetic to the untouchables. Although it is a bit exaggerated, for the current Indian society, especially in remote areas, this It is one of the portrayals of reality.
Fatima saw these things in her eyes, and also recorded them with mobile phone photos and posted them on the Internet.
"pat, pat..."
Unknowingly, the sound of frying beans began to appear on the roof of the train and outside the windows.
Gu Ji raised his head, pulled out the bright flashlight and looked out. Even through the window, he could still feel the roar of the flood. The ticking raindrops, accompanied by the sound of the wind, poured down and hit the glass like a waterfall. La" flowed down.
Fatima glanced at the time on her phone.
"It's already 10:07, the atmospheric pressure has dropped to 995 hPa, and the precipitation of the tropical depression has hit!"
"Zizi... report from compartment 56, a bright light was found outside the train, it seems to be a rescue..."
"Oh! Thank God! Help is here!"
"what--!"
……
Just as she finished speaking, the voice of soldiers reporting came from the intercom on Gu Ji's chest, but before he finished speaking, the excited cheers of the victims came from the background.
"Oops……"
He thought in his heart that something was wrong. The emergency team that rushed over at this time must be the two additional fire rescue boats sent by Anurag.
Human nature has a selfish side.
Everyone hopes that they are the first to be rescued, but when everyone learns that they are not among the rescuers, the negative emotions of "disillusioned" will burst out in an instant, and once the rhythm is formed, it will be out of control. It may even undermine his credibility and command, triggering man-made conflicts.
"Fatima, let government officials and soldiers appease the victims immediately!"
Gu Ji hurriedly commanded and ordered, quickly took off the medical gloves, and ran towards the rear of the carriage.
But no matter how the soldiers suppressed it, the survival instinct of human beings is always the strongest. Even if the distance is far away, he heard the voice from the second half of the train, and he took out the walkie-talkie again and shouted:
"Everyone! Don't cheer! Don't jump! The train can't bear everyone's collective rush! This will easily cause the carriage to be deep in mud, and it will be flooded earlier..."
Whoa-!
"what!!"
"There's water spraying in! Galava! What's wrong with you, Galava!"
Just when Gu Ji ran to the 51st carriage, the windows of the severely damaged carriage suddenly shattered amidst the cheers and vibrations of the victims, and a huge jet of water gushed in, instantly crushing a nearest victim out, with his head thrown It hit the table next to it, and the blood flowed out like a faucet turned on.
"Everyone, stop making trouble! Car No. 51! Car No. 51, someone at the scene suffered a head injury and bled into a coma. Immediately hold down the bleeding point! Wait for medical assistance! Soldiers, seal the broken windows quickly!"
Gu Ji is extremely busy.
It is necessary to reprimand the victims, contact the medical emergency team, and order soldiers to block the leaks, and at the same time, the pace cannot be stopped.
Finally, he managed to reach the rear of the carriage.
Under the red light signal of the soldiers, the fire boat emergency team slowly docked at the passageway of the 56th carriage.
through the window.
Everyone saw that there were two rescue teams, each with two assault boats and two fishing boats, a total of eight. Among them, the assault boat was a 3.8-meter-sized orange inflatable rubber boat with a small external engine, and the fishing boat was about 4 meters long. small unpowered boats.
In terms of the specifications of the assault boat, it can only accommodate 6 people at most. If the driver and the firefighters in charge of the rescue are removed, the two rescue teams can take away fifteen or six people.
Some of the more intelligent victims seemed to understand this, and the smiles on their faces disappeared a lot.
The leader of a bearded fire boat captain grabbed the handle of the train door through the aisle, and tried to communicate with the people in the train through a slight gap.
"I'm Azim, the water rescue captain of the Dispur Fire Station. We were called by the Minister of State Disaster Management. Who is Mr. Vidi? What's the situation inside?"
"I'm Viddy!"
Gu Ji asked Fatima and the soldiers to arrange for the train to be quiet, and immediately yelled against the crack of the door: "The train is still barely supported, the rain may become heavier at any time, and the train may be submerged. We need more rescue. !"
Because there were disaster victims at the scene, it was impossible for him to say nothing.
In fact, train silence is an inevitable event.
Azim wiped the rainwater off his stubble, looked at the length of the train, and shook his head, "There are too many people in the train, and the rescue team is all staying in the town now, I will report the situation to the director , but this time I am afraid I can only take away 15 people, you need to make a decision as soon as possible!"
"Take away the seriously injured patients and children first! You go forward, in the No. 3 carriage! We will meet in the train bathroom..."
Unexpectedly, before Gu could finish his words, he was rejected by the victims behind him.
"Why pull them first? Since they are all seriously injured and won't live long, why not give priority to those who can survive?"
"That's right! We've waited here for so long, and we've also worked hard to fix the water leaks in the carriage. The result is not as good as a few old, weak, sick and disabled. What kind of nonsense is this!"
"Honorable Mr. Vidi, please let me go first, I am also seriously ill, my blood sugar has not been good..."
"Mr. Vidi, I respect your commanding ability, but I think this rescue and evacuation plan is inappropriate. Government officials and social elites should be given priority. These are the people who have contributed to Assam. As for Those low caste refugees, you just need to make a show, I'm Swaraj, working in the office of state secretary, make friends..."
The disaster victims came and went, talking very fast one by one, and their voices became louder and louder. If there was any disagreement, they would argue and fight.
Gu Ji took a glance, leaving aside those volunteers, some of them were people of higher castes.
The most interesting thing was a government official who finally took him by the shoulder, took him to a corner, muttered in a low voice, his expression and tone were full of irony compared with his identity.
Gu Ji gently pulled off the opponent's wrist, turned his back to the wall of the passageway, turned his head to look at the victims, took out the walkie-talkie and said:
"I'm sorry, everyone. Listen to me first. The current rescue power of the state government is really limited. It is impossible to rescue everyone at the same time. It needs to be rescued in batches. I assure you that I will stick with you to the end and will Take everyone away from here, but before that, I also hope that you will not be in a hurry, you must distinguish between the urgent and the urgent, and let the patients who need treatment leave first!"
"Mr. Vidi, since the state government has limited capacity, why do you think you can save so many of us?"
"He just said it nicely! In fact, it's not up to officials like them to decide who to take away! Maybe he himself will be the first to escape first!"
"I also saw him whispering something to that wicked official just now. He must be trying to get rid of us!"
"It's starting to rain outside, we're not really going to drown here are we?"
"This Vidi Dali is a complete liar! I heard it just now. I knew that the government rescue team was in the town. I might as well not get on the train. At least staying at home is safer than here!"
Unexpectedly, Gu Ji's patient explanation not only failed to convince the victims, but aroused even greater counterattacks from everyone.
He squinted his eyes, and noticed that those who sprayed the most were the first batch of rebuttals, and among them was the secretary's office that he rejected.
On the other hand, Fatima blushed and turned blue with anger.
"Shut up! Do you want to listen to what you have said! Vidi has been running around since the first day of the rainstorm, thinking about how to save everyone. If he hadn't predicted the disaster in advance, maybe we would have It was submerged by the flood; the rescue team was deployed in the town, not because there was a problem with the transfer strategy, but because the current disaster situation in the town is more serious, and the flood water level is close to six meters. May I ask whose house is higher than this height?"
"And how many people can stay in a building over 6 meters in the town? Think about it again, is it the first time the flood came, was Vidi the first to remind everyone, was he the first to stabilize the chaotic carriage, Is he the first to stand up and direct everyone to stop the leak and save the wounded? If such a hero can be slandered as a sinner, even the god Shiva in the sky will be angry!"
Maybe it was Fatima's stern tone that woke everyone up, or maybe it was the last sentence "Lord Shiva" that aroused the conscience of the victims.
At this time, a shriveled old man with curly hair and white hair, dressed in a tattered orange robe, knelt in the stagnant water with his palms folded.
"Call the name of God, and may God bless! When the goddess of the Ganges descended from the snow-capped heaven, Shiva, in order to prevent the flood from flooding all living beings, personally took the water from his head and let the Ganges flow through his hair for thousands of years. After buffering, it will flow to the human world..."
What he said was the myth of Shiva's self-sacrifice, and he meant that Gu Ji was the embodiment of Shiva's spiritual power to save the common people.
After hearing this, many people lowered their heads in shame.
Think about it carefully, everyone, everything is just as Fatima said, from the accident on the train to the present, Gu Ji has indeed been at the forefront. Without him, the train would have been submerged long ago.
Gu Ji took this opportunity to raise his tone.
"Don't worry, everyone. I have reported to the central cabinet government through three channels. I believe that the army will soon send a large number of air and water troops to rescue everyone. As for the fraudulent identities of the first batch of rescued people you are worried about, I welcome everyone to personally supervise. But if someone maliciously sows discord among the people, puts hats on them, labels them, and engages in confrontation, then don't blame me for taking coercive measures against you!"
He said the last sentence word by word, a cold and fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he deliberately touched the fire ax in the side pocket of the backpack with his right hand, which immediately made the men who deliberately provoked shudder.
The Indian soldiers looked at each other, and stood up on their own initiative, staring sternly at the disaster victims, as a support for Gu Ji.
As soldiers, they know very well that they must be strong at this time, otherwise in a closed environment, once the people form a rebellious mentality, power will split.
By now.
Great morality, personnel force, government appointment, on-site command authority, medical food resources.
With everything in Gu Ji's hands, those disaster victims naturally didn't dare to make trouble anymore.
He quickly ran back to the No. 3 car with Fatima.
One advantage of this old-fashioned train in India is the air vent!
That's right, similar to the earliest domestic green leather trains, there is actually no air conditioning. In summer, the only way to dissipate heat is to rely on fans, and the vents are set up in the bathroom to dissipate the smell.
"Everyone be careful!"
Gu Ji made a reminder, and yanked the bathroom door open with force, and there was a "crash", a large amount of sewage mixed with a disgusting stench rushed towards the face.
This is because the water pours up through the squatting hole at the bottom, and the smell must be unpleasant.
Fortunately, he was wearing underground waterproof overalls, and the government and soldiers, including Fatima, had already put on rubber boots and waterproof coats.
Gu Ji stepped on the iron edges on both sides of the toilet, pulled out the fire axe, replaced it with the end of a crowbar, and forcefully opened the vent on the top.
It was a circular air vent with a cover on it. When it was covered, there were only four finger-thick slits for exhausting the air. After all were opened, it was enough for one person to pass through.
Rainwater hit his face along the vent.
At this time, people from the fire brigade also climbed to the top of the train through the side, and the captain Azim spoke with an unbelievable tone.
"My God, how did you manage to keep such a long train buried in flood waters?"
"Maybe it's God's blessing."
Gu Ji didn't bother to explain too much, now the injured should be transferred as soon as possible, "Many seriously injured patients have lost a lot of blood and are very weak. When you transfer from the top to the assault boat, you must be careful. It is best to tie the safety rope set!"
After reminding the firefighters, he asked Fatima to put the nearby suitcases and supplies on the bottom of the bathroom, so that it would be easier for the injured to pass through the vent.
The victims of the disaster in the No. 3 carriage next door just lay at the door, looking "poorly" at those who were favored by the god of luck and could leave the train, at least they would no longer have to stand in the muddy water.
In the process of transporting the injured.
The phone in Gu Ji's pocket vibrated again, and he told Fatima to keep watching. When he connected, it was Anurag, the Minister of Disasters, "Minister, is there any news?"
"That's right, the director has already met with the Prime Minister with the information. Your move is really powerful. Now the incident about the flood in northern Assam in the media has been listed on the hot news in India. New Delhi TV, "India Today" website After the incident was reported, the Prime Minister became angry on the spot, reprimanding the cabinet ministers such as the environment and water conservancy for their ineffectiveness. It is estimated that the higher authorities will contact the train to communicate the situation soon, and you must seize the opportunity.”
"Thank you for the minister's efforts, this is saved!"
Gu Ji deliberately amplified his voice and told the words to the onlookers. When these people heard the word "rescue", their hearts were filled with hope again.
Not long after, the conductor's voice came from the intercom:
"Zizi, this is the train set. The director of the National Disaster Management Bureau wants to know the details of the train. Mr. Vidi, I'm afraid I'll trouble you to come here!"
"it is good!"
Gu Ji had been waiting for this moment for too long, he hurried towards the rear of the train, the conductor's office seat is usually in the middle of the train, or next to the dining car), usually in carriages 8-11.
Arriving in the No. 10 carriage, several conductors in khaki uniforms stared at Gu Ji with big eyes, as if they didn't expect the man who dealt with the train crisis to be so young.
And the first middle-aged Indian man with a mustache with two horizontal stripes on his shoulders shook the black wired walkie-talkie in his hand and handed it over, "The signal may sometimes be bad, so you have to repeat it a few times when you hear the noise." all over."
"Okay, I'm Vidi Dali, can you hear me?"
"You are the disaster deputy commissioner strongly recommended by Anurag? Tell me, what is the current situation in the train..."
"I'm very sorry, Director. We really don't have much time. I need a leader who can give decisive orders to talk to me. Sending messages back and forth to discuss will only waste golden rescue time!"
When Gu Ji said these words, the train conductor at the side almost choked to death, so he could only forcefully cover his mouth and cough.
That's the head of the central cabinet government!
In addition to the prime minister, cabinet secretary, cabinet minister, and ministerial secretary, the most powerful official of the national branch!
Unexpectedly, there was a laugh on the phone. The director of the National Disaster Management Bureau did not seem to be angry. Then the call went blank for two seconds, and the person on the other end of the receiver changed, with a much lower and more serious voice.
"I'm Cabinet Secretary Gao Ba, you can tell me directly if you have any questions."
"Mr. Gauba, can you make a decision? I remember that the Cabinet Secretariat is only responsible for IAS Indian administrative services and civil servants under the government's business rules. It seems that they cannot be transferred to the army."
"We are holding an impromptu meeting of the National Crisis Management Committee in New Delhi, with the Home Secretary and Air Force Deputy Chief of Staff next to me."
Hearing that the military was involved, Gu Ji was relieved.
In fact, he also heard the implication of the cabinet secretary's words. He was actually saying: "The only senior central cabinet official you can contact at present is me. Is it possible that you still want to talk to the prime minister directly?"
"Mr. Gaoba, we are facing an extreme crisis. Disasters at the level of major floods are threatening the lives of 120 civilians, 31 army soldiers, and [-] government officials in Assam. The heavy rainfall brought by the current tropical depression The water level is constantly rising, and there is a possibility of submerging the car at any time, and the state government rescue team is unable to distract now..."
"I understand the situation. I will send four more rescue teams from the National Disaster Relief Emergency Force, with about 4 rescuers. The Air Force will send a transport plane, five helicopters and two teams of navy frogmen to the disaster area. The estimated time is 200 hour. 1 minutes, landed at Dibrugarh Airport."
The cabinet secretary is worthy of being the head of government, the prime minister's top think tank.
As soon as Gu Ji finished reporting the data, the other party immediately designed corresponding rescue measures. It seemed that he was very experienced, but maybe because he was in the capital, he still didn't pay enough attention to the crisis of the scene.
In particular, there is one piece of data that he hasn't figured out yet.
"Mr. Gaoba, may I ask how many additional boat troops are dispatched, especially the number of rubber rescue boats!"
"What exactly do you want to say?"
"Flood environment, top current travel, motorized rubber boats should be used as the main battle equipment, and according to the international standard for rubber rescue boats, an inflatable rescue boat with a total length of 3.8m and a protective floor, matching power 15-30, and the number of passengers is controlled. For 5 to 7 people, if you choose an inflatable rescue boat with a total length of 4.2m and a protective floor, the matching power is 30 to 40 horsepower, the number of passengers is controlled at 6 to 8 people, and the front and rear speeds are both at 50KM per hour."
"Based on the Air Force's maneuver response, the landing preparation time of the transport plane, and the distance to the nearest disaster evacuation center, we only have one and a half hours of rescue time at most, which is the number of trips, so at least 400 rubber boat rescue boats must be dispatched, and 30 horsepower A 4-deck boat is generally equipped with 2 people, that is, a commander, a lifeguard and a driver, and a 1-horse 1-deck boat should be equipped with 40 people, that is, a commander, a lifeguard and a driver. Take half the value of each, and a total of at least 5 people must be dispatched!"
These days I seize the time to make more!rush!
Gu Ji has only one purpose:
Let the central cabinet government of India come forward.
This is not just to complete the game objectives and tasks, but Assam is indeed in trouble at present.
The state government's existing emergency rescue force is simply not enough to deal with such a large-scale flood attack. If Gu Ji hadn't repeatedly emphasized that he had moved a large number of victims near the river bank in advance, I don't know how many people would be washed away by the flood!
Anurag pursed his lips in the receiver, hesitatingly said:
"The situation you predicted may indeed happen, and the situation is serious, but even if I report it to the central cabinet now, from holding an emergency meeting to making decisions and mobilizing troops from the military region, it may take half a day at the fastest, and then..."
"Minister, so I suggest that you call on hundreds of thousands of disaster victims in disaster shelters to publish disaster relief petitions on online media, and then contact the director of the NDMA National Disaster Management Agency and the secretary of the Ministry of Environment, bypassing the cabinet secretary and cabinet ministers, and directly report to the Prime Minister's Office !"
As Anurag said, India's central cabinet government is more complex than state governments.
India has a prime minister cabinet system. Under the prime minister, there are cabinet ministers and ministerial secretaries, which are equivalent to the ministers and executive deputy ministers of various ministries and commissions in our country. After the double approval of the two, the documents and reports will enter the hands of the cabinet secretary. The Cabinet Secretary is the highest head of the Indian executive branch system, directly under the Prime Minister, and is responsible for linking the Prime Minister's Office and different Indian government executive departments.
Let’s not talk about the time wasted by layers of approval.
The most important thing is that many high-ranking ministers are useless at all, especially when it comes to emergency response, they lack crisis sensitivity.
This is mainly because many of India's democratically elected ministers are political cadres from different parties, or simply came to power through the nepotism of party leaders. Therefore, it can be said that they have basically no relevant experience in managing the business of specific national departments. Even know nothing about it.
Regarding this point, Gu Ji also studied typical negative cases in the anti-terrorism emergency response course at the university.
That is the famous "11.26 Mumbai terrorist attack".
Among them, the teacher named and pointed out that the Minister of Home Affairs of India completely lacked corresponding emergency training for the CRPF Central Reserve Police Force, and the National Security Guard, that is, the Indian Special Police Force also lacked the most basic emergency response speed. It took an hour and a half to make a decision. It took 10 hours to arrive at the scene of the attack, and even made an international joke that "the special police arrived at the scene by bus", resulting in the death of hundreds of innocent people.
Gu Ji didn't want to fail this mission again, losing his arm and losing his kidney, so he could only resort to "sinister tricks".
Anurag has lived in the Indian officialdom for a long time, and he knows that it is a taboo in the officialdom to report to the higher level.
But I have to say that if you take extraordinary measures in extraordinary times, one minute faster at this time may save the life of one more victim, so I grinned and agreed.
"You have so many ways, kid! I will start to do it. You and Fatima must do our best to ensure the safety of the victims in the train. In an emergency, if you really can't, just abandon the car and run away. It's better than drowning in it alive!"
"Yes! Minister!"
Gu Ji knew that Anurag was a practical official, so he would definitely agree with his approach.
Next.
Just wait!Wait for the central government's aid to be approved!
But Gu Ji did not sit still completely. After putting down the phone, he first ordered the train to cover the red cloth with a flashlight or light source at regular intervals of 10 knots, waving it outward, and pasted a few reflective flags he bought on the window glass. so that rescue teams can easily spot them.
Then he went straight to the No. 2 compartment, which is the sanitation security compartment.
Along the way, the emergency lighting in some carriages was still there, and some carriages were severely damaged and pitch-black. Only the black faces reflected by the light of the white mobile phones of the victims could be seen.
The raging flood is still hitting both sides of the glass of the train, but it may be that the initial raging period has passed, the water level has gradually dropped, and it has fallen back to the half of the window. The Indian soldiers are still busy dealing with the water leakage in the compartment, while the victims are Under the arrangement of Fatima, the network is constantly refreshed, trying to send the disaster situation in the car to the network.
Seeing Gu Ji approaching, Fatima briefly reported the results.
"Government officials are actively seeking help from the nearby state governments. At present, only two have been contacted. Manipur has clearly refused, but Galaya has promised to send police firefighters to rescue. Because of the heavy rain, the mobile phones of the victims Without a network signal, many situations and videos cannot be sent out!"
"This is caused by the damage to the signal base station and the communication congestion caused by many people online at the same time in a short period of time. According to batches, a train compartment sends messages, and pictures are sent first. Also, take more pictures of soldiers."
Gu Ji glanced at the Indian soldier, and whispered in Fatima's ear.
Maybe it's because of the difference between men and women in India. Fatima was a little flustered by his "close" gesture, her ears turned red when she "rubbed", she lowered her head, and just fiddled with her clothes at a loss.
She didn't realize it until Gu Ji was far away.
The reason why Gu Ji asked Fatima to take more photos of soldiers is simple. On the one hand, it is to publicize the positive image of soldiers, which is equivalent to putting the Indian military region on the moral high ground. On the other hand, it is also to attract the attention of the military.
If they don't send additional troops to support them, they can only watch the nearly 120 soldiers on the train drown alive.
When you come to the vicinity of the No. 2 carriage, the carriage is lit with orange lanterns.
From the door, Gu Ji heard a lot of screams and groans. He grabbed one of the emergency female doctors who was wearing a white coat and had a red dot on her eyebrows and asked, "How's the situation?"
"It's not optimistic. At present, 8 people have died on the train, 7 of whom died of suffocation in the stampede incident, 1 person just passed away due to excessive blood loss, and the remaining 13 people were seriously injured, and 64 people were slightly injured. This carriage is very serious. The most important thing is that the medical resources in the train are very limited, tourniquets and bandages are no longer enough, and several patients are almost unable to survive and need blood transfusion as soon as possible.”
The female doctor with red dots shook her head, speaking very anxiously.
Gu Ji immediately threw down the backpack and found all the bandages, freeze-dried chitosan hemostatic dressing, and spinning tourniquet inside, leaving only two sets of hemostatic bandages for his own spare, "You list the patients who are seriously injured and need blood transfusions. When a list comes out, I will ask the soldiers to find volunteers on the train to donate blood."
When the red-dot female doctor saw these medical supplies, she was so surprised that she poked there like a piece of wood.
The hemostatic dressing that Gu Ji carried alone was almost equivalent to 20.00% of the medical supplies of the entire train. What the emergency personnel did not expect was that his method of hemostasis was no less than that of professional doctors and nurses, and even the processing speed was much faster than those present. Everyone needs to be more professional.
In fact, when Gu Ji first purchased medical supplies, he focused on hemostasis. Other related antidiarrheal, anti-inflammatory, antibiotics and other drugs were rarely purchased.
Whether it is a disaster, an accident, or an injury caused by a man-made attack, more or less blood loss will occur.
The tactical first aid he studied follows the principle of "MARCH", that is, the initial treatment of the wounded is carried out in the order of controlling massive bleeding, opening the airway, ensuring breathing, blood circulation, and dealing with head injury and hypothermia.
Among them, blood loss is the most urgent threat to the lives of the wounded, and it must be treated with priority in the first aid system; taking the battlefield with the highest mortality rate as an example, fatal bleeding accounts for about 85% of preventable war injuries number one cause of death.
Therefore, the control of massive bleeding is the first priority.
After Gu Ji handed over all the medical supplies to the female doctor, while helping to deal with the injuries, he turned his head to the injured in the carriage and shouted loudly: "Please persevere, the state government has sent a boat rescue team to come , when the time comes, I will give priority to sending seriously injured patients to the hospital for treatment, so you must not give up hope of survival!"
"Thank you, honorable Mr. Viddy!"
"Ahem... Mr. Vidi, you must be the apostle sent by Lord Shiva to save us. I must thank you for your generous help!"
As he said that, one of the Indian uncles who was bleeding from his head was about to kneel down from his seat and was hurriedly stopped by the medical staff on the side.
Most of the injured victims here are people of low caste. For them, they have never received such attention.
Not to mention that the "Vidi" played by Gu Ji is also a person of high caste, which is equivalent to the ancient dignitaries who are sympathetic to the untouchables. Although it is a bit exaggerated, for the current Indian society, especially in remote areas, this It is one of the portrayals of reality.
Fatima saw these things in her eyes, and also recorded them with mobile phone photos and posted them on the Internet.
"pat, pat..."
Unknowingly, the sound of frying beans began to appear on the roof of the train and outside the windows.
Gu Ji raised his head, pulled out the bright flashlight and looked out. Even through the window, he could still feel the roar of the flood. The ticking raindrops, accompanied by the sound of the wind, poured down and hit the glass like a waterfall. La" flowed down.
Fatima glanced at the time on her phone.
"It's already 10:07, the atmospheric pressure has dropped to 995 hPa, and the precipitation of the tropical depression has hit!"
"Zizi... report from compartment 56, a bright light was found outside the train, it seems to be a rescue..."
"Oh! Thank God! Help is here!"
"what--!"
……
Just as she finished speaking, the voice of soldiers reporting came from the intercom on Gu Ji's chest, but before he finished speaking, the excited cheers of the victims came from the background.
"Oops……"
He thought in his heart that something was wrong. The emergency team that rushed over at this time must be the two additional fire rescue boats sent by Anurag.
Human nature has a selfish side.
Everyone hopes that they are the first to be rescued, but when everyone learns that they are not among the rescuers, the negative emotions of "disillusioned" will burst out in an instant, and once the rhythm is formed, it will be out of control. It may even undermine his credibility and command, triggering man-made conflicts.
"Fatima, let government officials and soldiers appease the victims immediately!"
Gu Ji hurriedly commanded and ordered, quickly took off the medical gloves, and ran towards the rear of the carriage.
But no matter how the soldiers suppressed it, the survival instinct of human beings is always the strongest. Even if the distance is far away, he heard the voice from the second half of the train, and he took out the walkie-talkie again and shouted:
"Everyone! Don't cheer! Don't jump! The train can't bear everyone's collective rush! This will easily cause the carriage to be deep in mud, and it will be flooded earlier..."
Whoa-!
"what!!"
"There's water spraying in! Galava! What's wrong with you, Galava!"
Just when Gu Ji ran to the 51st carriage, the windows of the severely damaged carriage suddenly shattered amidst the cheers and vibrations of the victims, and a huge jet of water gushed in, instantly crushing a nearest victim out, with his head thrown It hit the table next to it, and the blood flowed out like a faucet turned on.
"Everyone, stop making trouble! Car No. 51! Car No. 51, someone at the scene suffered a head injury and bled into a coma. Immediately hold down the bleeding point! Wait for medical assistance! Soldiers, seal the broken windows quickly!"
Gu Ji is extremely busy.
It is necessary to reprimand the victims, contact the medical emergency team, and order soldiers to block the leaks, and at the same time, the pace cannot be stopped.
Finally, he managed to reach the rear of the carriage.
Under the red light signal of the soldiers, the fire boat emergency team slowly docked at the passageway of the 56th carriage.
through the window.
Everyone saw that there were two rescue teams, each with two assault boats and two fishing boats, a total of eight. Among them, the assault boat was a 3.8-meter-sized orange inflatable rubber boat with a small external engine, and the fishing boat was about 4 meters long. small unpowered boats.
In terms of the specifications of the assault boat, it can only accommodate 6 people at most. If the driver and the firefighters in charge of the rescue are removed, the two rescue teams can take away fifteen or six people.
Some of the more intelligent victims seemed to understand this, and the smiles on their faces disappeared a lot.
The leader of a bearded fire boat captain grabbed the handle of the train door through the aisle, and tried to communicate with the people in the train through a slight gap.
"I'm Azim, the water rescue captain of the Dispur Fire Station. We were called by the Minister of State Disaster Management. Who is Mr. Vidi? What's the situation inside?"
"I'm Viddy!"
Gu Ji asked Fatima and the soldiers to arrange for the train to be quiet, and immediately yelled against the crack of the door: "The train is still barely supported, the rain may become heavier at any time, and the train may be submerged. We need more rescue. !"
Because there were disaster victims at the scene, it was impossible for him to say nothing.
In fact, train silence is an inevitable event.
Azim wiped the rainwater off his stubble, looked at the length of the train, and shook his head, "There are too many people in the train, and the rescue team is all staying in the town now, I will report the situation to the director , but this time I am afraid I can only take away 15 people, you need to make a decision as soon as possible!"
"Take away the seriously injured patients and children first! You go forward, in the No. 3 carriage! We will meet in the train bathroom..."
Unexpectedly, before Gu could finish his words, he was rejected by the victims behind him.
"Why pull them first? Since they are all seriously injured and won't live long, why not give priority to those who can survive?"
"That's right! We've waited here for so long, and we've also worked hard to fix the water leaks in the carriage. The result is not as good as a few old, weak, sick and disabled. What kind of nonsense is this!"
"Honorable Mr. Vidi, please let me go first, I am also seriously ill, my blood sugar has not been good..."
"Mr. Vidi, I respect your commanding ability, but I think this rescue and evacuation plan is inappropriate. Government officials and social elites should be given priority. These are the people who have contributed to Assam. As for Those low caste refugees, you just need to make a show, I'm Swaraj, working in the office of state secretary, make friends..."
The disaster victims came and went, talking very fast one by one, and their voices became louder and louder. If there was any disagreement, they would argue and fight.
Gu Ji took a glance, leaving aside those volunteers, some of them were people of higher castes.
The most interesting thing was a government official who finally took him by the shoulder, took him to a corner, muttered in a low voice, his expression and tone were full of irony compared with his identity.
Gu Ji gently pulled off the opponent's wrist, turned his back to the wall of the passageway, turned his head to look at the victims, took out the walkie-talkie and said:
"I'm sorry, everyone. Listen to me first. The current rescue power of the state government is really limited. It is impossible to rescue everyone at the same time. It needs to be rescued in batches. I assure you that I will stick with you to the end and will Take everyone away from here, but before that, I also hope that you will not be in a hurry, you must distinguish between the urgent and the urgent, and let the patients who need treatment leave first!"
"Mr. Vidi, since the state government has limited capacity, why do you think you can save so many of us?"
"He just said it nicely! In fact, it's not up to officials like them to decide who to take away! Maybe he himself will be the first to escape first!"
"I also saw him whispering something to that wicked official just now. He must be trying to get rid of us!"
"It's starting to rain outside, we're not really going to drown here are we?"
"This Vidi Dali is a complete liar! I heard it just now. I knew that the government rescue team was in the town. I might as well not get on the train. At least staying at home is safer than here!"
Unexpectedly, Gu Ji's patient explanation not only failed to convince the victims, but aroused even greater counterattacks from everyone.
He squinted his eyes, and noticed that those who sprayed the most were the first batch of rebuttals, and among them was the secretary's office that he rejected.
On the other hand, Fatima blushed and turned blue with anger.
"Shut up! Do you want to listen to what you have said! Vidi has been running around since the first day of the rainstorm, thinking about how to save everyone. If he hadn't predicted the disaster in advance, maybe we would have It was submerged by the flood; the rescue team was deployed in the town, not because there was a problem with the transfer strategy, but because the current disaster situation in the town is more serious, and the flood water level is close to six meters. May I ask whose house is higher than this height?"
"And how many people can stay in a building over 6 meters in the town? Think about it again, is it the first time the flood came, was Vidi the first to remind everyone, was he the first to stabilize the chaotic carriage, Is he the first to stand up and direct everyone to stop the leak and save the wounded? If such a hero can be slandered as a sinner, even the god Shiva in the sky will be angry!"
Maybe it was Fatima's stern tone that woke everyone up, or maybe it was the last sentence "Lord Shiva" that aroused the conscience of the victims.
At this time, a shriveled old man with curly hair and white hair, dressed in a tattered orange robe, knelt in the stagnant water with his palms folded.
"Call the name of God, and may God bless! When the goddess of the Ganges descended from the snow-capped heaven, Shiva, in order to prevent the flood from flooding all living beings, personally took the water from his head and let the Ganges flow through his hair for thousands of years. After buffering, it will flow to the human world..."
What he said was the myth of Shiva's self-sacrifice, and he meant that Gu Ji was the embodiment of Shiva's spiritual power to save the common people.
After hearing this, many people lowered their heads in shame.
Think about it carefully, everyone, everything is just as Fatima said, from the accident on the train to the present, Gu Ji has indeed been at the forefront. Without him, the train would have been submerged long ago.
Gu Ji took this opportunity to raise his tone.
"Don't worry, everyone. I have reported to the central cabinet government through three channels. I believe that the army will soon send a large number of air and water troops to rescue everyone. As for the fraudulent identities of the first batch of rescued people you are worried about, I welcome everyone to personally supervise. But if someone maliciously sows discord among the people, puts hats on them, labels them, and engages in confrontation, then don't blame me for taking coercive measures against you!"
He said the last sentence word by word, a cold and fierce light flashed in his eyes, and he deliberately touched the fire ax in the side pocket of the backpack with his right hand, which immediately made the men who deliberately provoked shudder.
The Indian soldiers looked at each other, and stood up on their own initiative, staring sternly at the disaster victims, as a support for Gu Ji.
As soldiers, they know very well that they must be strong at this time, otherwise in a closed environment, once the people form a rebellious mentality, power will split.
By now.
Great morality, personnel force, government appointment, on-site command authority, medical food resources.
With everything in Gu Ji's hands, those disaster victims naturally didn't dare to make trouble anymore.
He quickly ran back to the No. 3 car with Fatima.
One advantage of this old-fashioned train in India is the air vent!
That's right, similar to the earliest domestic green leather trains, there is actually no air conditioning. In summer, the only way to dissipate heat is to rely on fans, and the vents are set up in the bathroom to dissipate the smell.
"Everyone be careful!"
Gu Ji made a reminder, and yanked the bathroom door open with force, and there was a "crash", a large amount of sewage mixed with a disgusting stench rushed towards the face.
This is because the water pours up through the squatting hole at the bottom, and the smell must be unpleasant.
Fortunately, he was wearing underground waterproof overalls, and the government and soldiers, including Fatima, had already put on rubber boots and waterproof coats.
Gu Ji stepped on the iron edges on both sides of the toilet, pulled out the fire axe, replaced it with the end of a crowbar, and forcefully opened the vent on the top.
It was a circular air vent with a cover on it. When it was covered, there were only four finger-thick slits for exhausting the air. After all were opened, it was enough for one person to pass through.
Rainwater hit his face along the vent.
At this time, people from the fire brigade also climbed to the top of the train through the side, and the captain Azim spoke with an unbelievable tone.
"My God, how did you manage to keep such a long train buried in flood waters?"
"Maybe it's God's blessing."
Gu Ji didn't bother to explain too much, now the injured should be transferred as soon as possible, "Many seriously injured patients have lost a lot of blood and are very weak. When you transfer from the top to the assault boat, you must be careful. It is best to tie the safety rope set!"
After reminding the firefighters, he asked Fatima to put the nearby suitcases and supplies on the bottom of the bathroom, so that it would be easier for the injured to pass through the vent.
The victims of the disaster in the No. 3 carriage next door just lay at the door, looking "poorly" at those who were favored by the god of luck and could leave the train, at least they would no longer have to stand in the muddy water.
In the process of transporting the injured.
The phone in Gu Ji's pocket vibrated again, and he told Fatima to keep watching. When he connected, it was Anurag, the Minister of Disasters, "Minister, is there any news?"
"That's right, the director has already met with the Prime Minister with the information. Your move is really powerful. Now the incident about the flood in northern Assam in the media has been listed on the hot news in India. New Delhi TV, "India Today" website After the incident was reported, the Prime Minister became angry on the spot, reprimanding the cabinet ministers such as the environment and water conservancy for their ineffectiveness. It is estimated that the higher authorities will contact the train to communicate the situation soon, and you must seize the opportunity.”
"Thank you for the minister's efforts, this is saved!"
Gu Ji deliberately amplified his voice and told the words to the onlookers. When these people heard the word "rescue", their hearts were filled with hope again.
Not long after, the conductor's voice came from the intercom:
"Zizi, this is the train set. The director of the National Disaster Management Bureau wants to know the details of the train. Mr. Vidi, I'm afraid I'll trouble you to come here!"
"it is good!"
Gu Ji had been waiting for this moment for too long, he hurried towards the rear of the train, the conductor's office seat is usually in the middle of the train, or next to the dining car), usually in carriages 8-11.
Arriving in the No. 10 carriage, several conductors in khaki uniforms stared at Gu Ji with big eyes, as if they didn't expect the man who dealt with the train crisis to be so young.
And the first middle-aged Indian man with a mustache with two horizontal stripes on his shoulders shook the black wired walkie-talkie in his hand and handed it over, "The signal may sometimes be bad, so you have to repeat it a few times when you hear the noise." all over."
"Okay, I'm Vidi Dali, can you hear me?"
"You are the disaster deputy commissioner strongly recommended by Anurag? Tell me, what is the current situation in the train..."
"I'm very sorry, Director. We really don't have much time. I need a leader who can give decisive orders to talk to me. Sending messages back and forth to discuss will only waste golden rescue time!"
When Gu Ji said these words, the train conductor at the side almost choked to death, so he could only forcefully cover his mouth and cough.
That's the head of the central cabinet government!
In addition to the prime minister, cabinet secretary, cabinet minister, and ministerial secretary, the most powerful official of the national branch!
Unexpectedly, there was a laugh on the phone. The director of the National Disaster Management Bureau did not seem to be angry. Then the call went blank for two seconds, and the person on the other end of the receiver changed, with a much lower and more serious voice.
"I'm Cabinet Secretary Gao Ba, you can tell me directly if you have any questions."
"Mr. Gauba, can you make a decision? I remember that the Cabinet Secretariat is only responsible for IAS Indian administrative services and civil servants under the government's business rules. It seems that they cannot be transferred to the army."
"We are holding an impromptu meeting of the National Crisis Management Committee in New Delhi, with the Home Secretary and Air Force Deputy Chief of Staff next to me."
Hearing that the military was involved, Gu Ji was relieved.
In fact, he also heard the implication of the cabinet secretary's words. He was actually saying: "The only senior central cabinet official you can contact at present is me. Is it possible that you still want to talk to the prime minister directly?"
"Mr. Gaoba, we are facing an extreme crisis. Disasters at the level of major floods are threatening the lives of 120 civilians, 31 army soldiers, and [-] government officials in Assam. The heavy rainfall brought by the current tropical depression The water level is constantly rising, and there is a possibility of submerging the car at any time, and the state government rescue team is unable to distract now..."
"I understand the situation. I will send four more rescue teams from the National Disaster Relief Emergency Force, with about 4 rescuers. The Air Force will send a transport plane, five helicopters and two teams of navy frogmen to the disaster area. The estimated time is 200 hour. 1 minutes, landed at Dibrugarh Airport."
The cabinet secretary is worthy of being the head of government, the prime minister's top think tank.
As soon as Gu Ji finished reporting the data, the other party immediately designed corresponding rescue measures. It seemed that he was very experienced, but maybe because he was in the capital, he still didn't pay enough attention to the crisis of the scene.
In particular, there is one piece of data that he hasn't figured out yet.
"Mr. Gaoba, may I ask how many additional boat troops are dispatched, especially the number of rubber rescue boats!"
"What exactly do you want to say?"
"Flood environment, top current travel, motorized rubber boats should be used as the main battle equipment, and according to the international standard for rubber rescue boats, an inflatable rescue boat with a total length of 3.8m and a protective floor, matching power 15-30, and the number of passengers is controlled. For 5 to 7 people, if you choose an inflatable rescue boat with a total length of 4.2m and a protective floor, the matching power is 30 to 40 horsepower, the number of passengers is controlled at 6 to 8 people, and the front and rear speeds are both at 50KM per hour."
"Based on the Air Force's maneuver response, the landing preparation time of the transport plane, and the distance to the nearest disaster evacuation center, we only have one and a half hours of rescue time at most, which is the number of trips, so at least 400 rubber boat rescue boats must be dispatched, and 30 horsepower A 4-deck boat is generally equipped with 2 people, that is, a commander, a lifeguard and a driver, and a 1-horse 1-deck boat should be equipped with 40 people, that is, a commander, a lifeguard and a driver. Take half the value of each, and a total of at least 5 people must be dispatched!"
These days I seize the time to make more!rush!
