Chapter 180 The Truth About Flash Floods
This is the horror of natural disasters.

Human life is as humble as weeds in front of the flood.

Creak——!
A sudden voice from behind interrupted Gu Ji's contemplation. He turned his head, his frowning brows were gradually flattened, the corners of his eyes continued to widen, and his two eyeballs protruded tightly.

It was a blue cargo ship more than 60 meters long and 10 meters wide. It was pushed obliquely by the waves of the flood, and with a bang, it hit the office building next to it, like a sharp knife, inserted into the building. The intrusion made the building seem to be crumbling, and a large piece of glass on the upper floor was also shattered, exposing the screaming crowd inside.

"what--!"

One of them was pushed down from upstairs by the panicked crowd behind him because he couldn't dodge in time, fell into the water with a plop, and disappeared.

incredible.

Ships appear in urban buildings, and the disaster scene in the movie "The Day After Tomorrow" actually happened in reality!
Before the end of the physiological fear expression, Gu Ji forcibly turned his head. Taking advantage of the headwind caused by the impact of the ship, he grabbed the edge of the rubber boat, threw the hull upright with all his strength, and then quickly climbed to the stern in front of the external propeller. , grabbed the starter handle, stood up and pulled desperately.

Boom, boom...

"hurry up……"

He has been working continuously for 36 hours since he made the bombing plan for the dam yesterday morning, without closing his eyes.

As India's most elite disaster relief force, their own survival rate is higher than that of ordinary people.

Under the gloomy sky, as many as a dozen military helicopters and transport planes came and went, responsible for rescue and delivery of supplies. Not to mention the people of Calcutta, even the rescuers of the disaster response force had never seen the "overhead "There are still such lively times.

So as long as these residents of North Calcutta can survive the first wave of flood peak and huge waves, many people will survive.

As time goes on, the number of deaths in the lower left corner starts to grow more and more slowly.

"The power of a five-meter-high flood is terrible..."

Now we have to do everything we can to save people!
Gu Ji stared at the ever-increasing death toll. In less than a minute, another seven or eight people died in the flood, and it was about to break through the 1 mark.

……

The amount that the disaster relief fund can really be used for the people may still be unknown.

Later, even the Indian Army and Navy joined in, thanks to Fatima. If she hadn't followed the gourd and posted the video of the catastrophic flood in Calcutta on the Internet, which caused a sensation, the Prime Minister would not have suddenly transferred the Navy temporarily. Came over to help, and even organized a national disaster relief donation online.

After being hit by the flood, most of the infrastructure facilities in the town were severely damaged, and the mobile phone has been in a state of no signal. He handed another satellite phone to Gu Ji, "I have reported the situation to the disaster response command They will be in charge of contacting the air force base for support, Vidi, we will split up into two rescue groups, I will be in charge of the direction along the Hooghly River, and you will be in charge of the west side, gather at the lower reaches of Nancheng District!"

Unexpectedly, there was a shout from behind, and then a lifebuoy tied with a safety rope was thrown in the air, and it landed on the side of the Indian uncle.

Isn't the sudden rise in the water level caused by the glacier break, which in turn triggered the continuous failure of the dam?

Gu Ji couldn't help grinning, and hurriedly controlled the steering rudder.

"Don't blame yourself, your method is very effective, and the three of us survived because of it."

"Go back and tell the minister for me, and say that I will go back to Assam to investigate the cause of the flood!"

"Captain Pradhan, we should now gather the scattered boat formations as much as possible, and find a way to salvage the refugees floating on the water in the early stage of the flood!"

"Vidi, now that the disaster in Calcutta is under control, shall we go back to New Delhi to report to the Director and the Prime Minister?"

"I'm sorry, Captain Pradhan. When the flood was photographed, they were all caught up in the undercurrent and scattered. Only I was tied to the boat by the safety rope and was not thrown out of the rubber boat."

The so-called "accumulation makes more", in the past 20 years, India has suffered an average of 100 billion U.S. dollars in economic losses due to disasters every year. During the period of 2021-2022 alone, the central cabinet has continuously allocated more than 2900 billion rupees to the SDRF state-level disaster response fund, which is about Xia Guoyuan has 240 billion yuan, part of which is used to build infrastructure, part of which is used to purchase ambulances and other rescue equipment, and the remaining nearly 50% is used for disaster relief and compensation for the people.

The truth about flash floods in Assam...

This is also normal. A national-level disaster involving a multi-state area often consumes terrible government finances.

And he had the Army throw in a lot of life jackets and buoys from the start.

Pradhan also understood the principle of "golden rescue time", so he pulled a satellite phone from his tool bag.

Gu Ji opened his eyes, unable to believe that he was woken up by the notification sound of the game system.

The eruption time of the flood was only about an hour.

Gu Ji took the initiative to lean the boat next to the Pradhan rubber boat, "And we alone are not enough, and the military's helicopter rescue is needed!"

"Is there any good news?"

Cooperating with people who understand is smooth.

Don't underestimate a life jacket, a bag of rice, and a box of bottled water.

Really dozed off to send pillows.

Because the catastrophic flood in Kolkata caused too much harm, the Indian cabinet will definitely find someone to take the blame and quell public grievances, so it will be a matter of time before these people are arrested; Corruption has no sense of substitution.

"I'll leave it to you to handle the reincarnation. I have other things to go back to Assam to deal with."

[Sub-line objective: obtain the cooperation success of the Mountain Division Special Frontier Force! 】

In the evening, the heavy rain finally began to subside, which undoubtedly made the search and rescue much easier.

"Viddie, are you awake?"

It was as if there had never been a flood attack at all, but these buildings were built in the midst of the raging river.

After taking the last batch of refugees in his hands to Matan Park in the central city, Gu Ji found a tent area temporarily set up by the government, plunged into it and lay down.

Perhaps it was the instinctive reaction of the muscles in the 13% crisis environment that successfully saved his life.

Under the blessing of the torrential rain, the flood intensified. The wind and waves crashed towards the surrounding buildings like a wall. Cars drifted with the current like boats. Almost all the low-lying houses in the northern and central urban areas were flooded. A few dozens of houses and buildings are lowered, and the rough water flow is separated into pieces of white waves.

Just as Gu Ji was thinking about where to start, there was a sudden sound of hurried footsteps in front of the tent.

Speaking of this, Fatima paused intentionally, with a sly smile on her face, "I have even better news!"

Whether it's close-range combat training at sea or the flood and rapids specialization mark, it comes with the driving skills of water rubber speedboats.

The other missing persons either separated from the ship and fled elsewhere, or were temporarily trapped somewhere.

[Open the hidden target: Find the truth about the flash floods in Assam! 】

His idea is very simple. First, take a special plane from the special border troops back to Sam. By the way, I would like to ask about the situation in the Himalayas, because the 57th Mountain Division of the Fourth Army of the Indian Army was originally responsible for stationing the mountains 40 kilometers north of Dispur. The half-waist is responsible for training recruits and maintaining an offensive and defensive posture. It is one of the three strongest frontier troops of the Indian Army, so it must know some changes in the mountains.

In the subsidence period, the current will no longer be as turbulent as before, and the deep water level will remain at about five meters. Although it seems that the water search and rescue in Calcutta is more difficult than that in Assam, in fact, because the former is During the day, with the cooperation of military helicopters, and most of the people wearing reflective life jackets and buoys, it is simpler and smoother.

In the blink of an eye, Gu Ji instinctively leaned back.

[Ultimate goal: prevent the tropical storm and its secondary disasters from attacking India, and control the death toll within 157 successfully! 】

"Wake up, this sleep is too long, how is the search and rescue going?"

"what!"

Stretching, the exhaustion all over his body seemed to disappear. While rubbing his sleepy eyes, he thought about the meaning of the hidden mission.

"Help, Gulu... help..."

Theoretically speaking, the highest fatality rate in floods is drowning, followed by being hit by objects, stabbed by sharp objects, and then electric shock.

Just when Gu Ji was trying to get the refugees to cooperate with him in using the "O" type centrifugal rescue.

According to the standard sea state level, the wave height is 4-6 meters, and the storm wave shape on the flood peak is already a level 6 huge wave. This may be more common near the coast, but it is very exaggerated in inland rivers.

Throughout the morning, Gu Ji and Prada were busy searching and rescuing the whole city.

In less than half an hour, Gu Ji gathered 100 or [-] rubber rescue boats near Dongxiang, and searched and rescued more than [-] refugees. When they arrived at the agreed place, he and Pradhan found nearly [-]% of the rescue boats. Formation staff.

While urging, he pulled the starter handle repeatedly, and at the same time, he had to hold the hull to keep his balance and not let himself be swept down by the water waves.

Da da da……

Looking back, I didn't expect it to be Pradhan.

"help me!"

Gu Ji responded, put his backpack on his hands and prepared to go to the special border forces, "Where did Marlowe go?"

"Reach out and grab the handrails on the side of the boat! Quick!"

In mid-July 2010, heavy rains raged in the northeast of Xiaguo, floods in the east of Jiangji Province, and three streams of floods in Qiankou Town, Yongxian County converged at the same time, forming a catastrophic flood that was rare in a century, and the height of the flood wave was piled up to five meters. The Falaka Dam is a full 7 kilometers long, which shows how terrifying the amount of water the Hooghly River has brought in!

Gu Jizheng was worried that he would not have the opportunity to return to the northern part of Assam, so before Fatima could finish speaking, he hurriedly left the sentence and ran to the camp where the military area was stationed.

"Thank you, honorable sir!"

Of course, judging from the previous "secret backstab" by the Ministry of Finance and Taxation on compensation.

I guess he couldn't make it through.

This made Gu Ji can't help but have an illusion.

Sure enough, as soon as Gu Ji steered the rubber rescue boat out of the alley, he saw three or four refugees from the slums floating on the water. Among them, a man and a woman were wearing life jackets, and another uncle was holding a broken tree trunk, " Don't move around, you must wait for me to pass!"

"Because the Falaka Dam was not blasted in time, causing a catastrophic flood in Bangnan, the cabinet government was furious, and the Prime Minister ordered a thorough investigation of the Ministry of Finance and Taxation and the Midnapur District Government. I heard that relevant personnel have been taken by the Central Bureau of Investigation this morning. gone!"

Pradhan tugged at the noose around his waist, then glanced at a tall and thin rescue soldier beside him, "Kapil, you go and help on Vidi's boat!"

If it weren't for the waves of crises that stimulated his nerves, Gu Ji would always be on high alert.

Two men and women wearing life jackets climbed onto the boat easily, but the uncle who was holding the wood never dared to let go, for fear that he would lose his grip and fall into the water.

"Yes, the S103 tropical storm has completely dissipated. There is no continuous precipitation, and the water in southern Bengal is slowly receding. The rescue work is going smoothly, but..."

It was Fatima who spoke. Gu Ji tore open the zipper of the tent, but unexpectedly, he was blinded by a bright light rushing towards him, "Is the sky sunny?"

Finally, after an unknown number of attempts, the gasoline engine suddenly made a "rumbling" sound, and the hull seemed to have regained its power, and it jumped backwards.

"Videe, thank God, I knew you would survive. What about the other rescuers on board?"

Unexpectedly, Gu Ji didn't show any excitement after hearing this.

But just as he turned his head to look in the direction, a black shadow suddenly stabbed in front of him.

"I met Colonel Swaraj just now. He said that the demolition and disaster relief mission of the army has been completed, and he is preparing to escort the remaining equipment and explosives back to the 4th Army Base in Assam..."

Judging from the previous experience of completing hidden missions in levels, it is impossible to complete by guessing alone. It is necessary to find insiders or substantive evidence, such as Gillian in the Ryder Airport level, such as the special amine derivatives in the underground building level. things.

"Colonel, Marlowe, wait for me!"

He increased the throttle to turn the bow of the boat, cut diagonally through the turbulent water, and glided to several people.

"it is good!"

The roar of the gasoline engine was right next to his ears, and the turbulent water waves from the oars splashed on the back of his head. In front of the suddenly constricted pupils, a black shadow brushed seven or eight centimeters in front of his nose, sweeping dangerously and dangerously, and he hurriedly looked back. , it turned out to be an iron frame on a collapsed gray concrete pole. If he didn't react in time, he would probably end up pierced by a steel bar in his chest!
Fortunately, I chose the emergency hedging mark at the beginning.

Fortunately, the two Mi-17/171 transport helicopters had just activated their blades, and Gu Ji stopped Marlowe before he boarded the plane.

After showing why and why, Marlowe took a look at Swaraj.

Unexpectedly, the two people looked at each other with a special meaning, as if there was some secret hidden in the Himalayas in northern Assam.

and many more……

Is the flash floods related to special border forces?
