Chapter 176: The Ming Dynasty Stampede

Hearing the shopkeeper's words, everyone was shocked and stood up one after another, and Li Ruolin and other female dependents couldn't help but hide their mouths and shout. Wu Wei grabbed to the railing and looked in the direction pointed by the shopkeeper, his eyesight was excellent, and at a glance he saw that there was indeed a bridge in the distance, spanning both sides of the Bianhe River, and the honor guard of the prince of King Fu was lying on the bridge deck. The bridge was crowded and chaotic, and there seemed to be people in the river beside the bridge constantly fluttering and calling for help!

Wu Wei felt a sigh in his heart, he had seen the stampede in Xincheng Xin Chinese New Year's Eve cheng Chinese New Year's Eve in 2015, and the media at that time carried out intensive reports on it in all aspects, and the tragic scenes at the scene are still vivid. In front of you is Kaifeng Street, which is a place where cars and horses converge and crowds are dense, and the honor guard of the prince of King Fu is a large number of people, all the way to the vast line, almost occupying the entire street! The bridge in the distance is very narrow, if the upstream people can't avoid it, it will attract a stampede, and the consequences will be unimaginable!

In these years, there is no media news, and the government's experience in dealing with such emergencies is estimated to be completely none, and at this moment, Wu Wei is the only one who knows the consequences of the crowd trampling and how to deal with it!

What to do? Wu Wei's mind suddenly raced rapidly, recalling all the relevant handling experiences he had seen on TV and the news about the stampede, at this time, the most important thing should be to quickly end the chaos of the crowd, carry out orderly evacuation, uh, and emergency treatment of the injured

But in an occasion of at least thousands of people at the scene, unless a powerful department such as the armed police force intervenes, it is not easy to control the chaos!

This situation is somewhat similar to the scene of the collapse of a large army on the battlefield, and it is as easy as calming people's hearts. There will be no such thing as defeat like a mountain.

"Sit down, sir, while I go over and investigate." Since he was sideways, he couldn't stand idly by, Wu Wei, a good young man from the 21st century, made a decision in an instant, arched his hand to Li Chong, and instructed Zhao Wenzhuo: "You take two people to stay here to protect Miss Madame." Seeing that Zhao Wenzhuo responded, Wu Wei's eyes turned to Lao Huang again, nodded slightly at him, and threw the soft belt on his chest to the back of his head with his right hand, feeling that his posture was very chic. Lang said: "Go." Let's take a look! Without waiting for Li Ruolin and the others to react, they had already taken several guards to "kick and kick" all the way downstairs.

The incident happened suddenly, and it was only a moment from discovering that the situation was different to making a disposition, and the shopkeeper did not expect Wu to be so decisive. I was stunned. stared at his back. He opened his mouth, but said nothing.

Li Ruolin frowned slightly, and the anxiety in her eyes was full of anxiety. got up and hurriedly chased over, but saw Zhao Wenzhuo and two guards guarding the staircase, no matter how anxious and angry she was, she just smiled bitterly. Li Ruolin had no choice but to hold on to the railing and shouted downstairs: "Be careful!" ”

Wu Wei turned his head and waved his hand upward, grinned, showed six white teeth, and turned far away, leaving Li Ruolin stunned.

Wu Wei took a few personal guards, went out, and rushed to the accident place, and the leader of the personal guards, Lao Huang, had already received orders, and glanced at the pedestrians on the side of the road, and urgently recruited the soldiers of the Ansai battalion who recognized them, and when they arrived at the bridgehead, four or five more people were added to the team.

I saw a chaos everywhere in my eyes, there were crowded crowds everywhere on and off the bridge, a crying and screaming sound calling for children and daughters, although the honor guard of the prince of Fu Wang was numerous, it also seemed to be lonely in the crowd, and he was stuck on the bridge deck and could not advance or retreat. From a distance, I saw the elephant being trapped in the middle of the bridge, surrounded by attendants and horsemen on both sides, all of them fierce and vicious, punching and kicking around, struggling to beat the people who were shouting and shouting with the scabbard and whip in their hands, lest they collide with the car of the prince, but as for the life or death of the people, they did not care.

The crowd on the bridge deck was already crowded, and at this time panicked and avoided, and it was even more chaotic, and there were constantly people who were pushed to the point that they couldn't stand on their feet, screaming and falling into the water, and some were squeezed down by the crowd, and the sound was weakened after a few calls for help in the crowded stampede.

The crowd of people at the head of the bridge is more crowded than on the bridge, here is a main road in Kaifeng City, the pedestrians on both sides are not clear, and the crowd of people on both sides of the bridge is surging, which aggravates the danger to ten. As far as the eye can see, dozens of people have fallen into the water under the bridge, fluttering and struggling on the surface of the river, just like dumplings in the next pot, and the situation on land is even worse, the crowd is raging, and I don't know how many people have been pushed and thrown to the ground!

Bianhe River is a small tributary of the Yellow River, from west to east across the entire Kaifeng City, the river is not very wide, the water flow is also gentle, if someone falls into the water by chance, the people on the shore are not embarrassed to help, but at the moment there is a chaos in front of them, everyone is standing unstable, taking care of themselves, only afraid of being pushed to the ground or squeezed into the water, and where can anyone take care of to save others!

Wu Wei and his entourage hurried slowly, and finally rushed to the periphery of the crowd, and when they saw the situation in front of them, they did not dare to rush into the middle of it. Wu Wei glanced around, saw a stone pier nearby, immediately jumped up, looked around, and almost understood a little in his heart.

It turns out that the Laoshizi Shangtu Bridge in front of him spans both sides of the Bianhe River, which is a thoroughfare that communicates the north and south of Kaifeng City, and it is quite crowded in ordinary times, and the car driving team of King Fu is quite crowded, and the crowd is not reasonably evacuated, so he only uses violent means to forcibly open the road, and when the situation is out of control, he still cares about self-preservation, so that he does not hesitate to push people into the water, which is the culprit who causes the chaos in front of him!

And the soldiers of Kaifeng Mansion to maintain order are too small, and they are too busy to take care of themselves in the crowd, so how can they care about how to maintain order.

Kaifeng Mansion is in Beicheng, attached to Xiangfu County, responsible for the scene is a county in a green robe to preside over the history, on the side of the anxious jumping feet, can't stop shouting Zhang Luo's men to evacuate the people, in case of collision with the prince of the car, but it is lonely, and it is very helpful!

The inferiority of the current situation is beyond Wu Wei's imagination, the situation is really critical, there is no room for it, and the catastrophe is only in an instant!

Wu Wei's heart sank, why was Nima so unlucky, the worst case was met by himself!

Looking around, there were almost a dozen of his subordinates, pouting, making a gesture, and said loudly: "There is an order!" Everyone shouts with me, to the north! Then he drew his saber on the stone pier, swung it vigorously to the north, and roared loudly: "To the north!" ”

Everyone was slightly stunned, and immediately reacted, and shouted in unison with Wu Wei: "To the north!" And obeyed Wu Wei's order, drew his sword out of the sheath, stood in a row side by side, across the middle of the road, leaning forward slightly, blocking the crowd of people from the north who were constantly surging towards the bridgehead.

For a large number of people, these few dozen or so people are just a drop in the bucket, but Xueliang's blade is the most convincing at all times. Seeing that there were more than a dozen big men in the middle of the street holding sharp blades, where did anyone dare to approach again, the crowd from the south was suddenly stagnant. The people in front hurriedly followed the shout and turned around and retreated in the direction of the north gate, and those who were close to them shouted together for fear of not being able to retreat quickly: "To the north, to the north!" "Oops, who stepped on my foot!" "He's big, he's big, wait for me!" The noise of the scene suddenly became a few points higher, if it weren't for the fact that all the guards were strong men and their voices were in unison, they really couldn't cover it!

Under the deterrence of the Ansai guards, the crowd from the south was first blocked and stopped, and then slowly retreated in the direction of the north gate, and the pressure was suddenly eased!

Seeing that this move was effective, Wu Wei jumped off the stone pier, squeezed south to the side of the Tsing Yi Dianshi, grabbed his arm, and shouted loudly: "Hurry up, don't be stupid, quickly ask your people to shout with us!" ”

Nadian Shi had seen the situation here, but he hadn't reacted yet, and at this time, he was yelled at by Wu Wei, and he didn't have time to think about it, so he immediately shouted to his subordinates to move closer to him.

The number of soldiers in the government service workshop was originally small, and they were scattered everywhere, where could they be gathered for a while? Nadian Shi was so busy that he was sweating profusely, and he only gathered more than a dozen people, and he followed the example of the people of Ansai, standing side by side, leaning on each other to prevent them from being scattered, and waving and shouting vigorously with the blades and iron rulers he held, driving the crowd northward.

Although the number of people was insufficient, under Wu Wei's measures, the soldiers of the Ya Servant Fang gradually stabilized their positions, and new people continued to join, and the crowd under the Hedgehog Bridge finally moved slowly and gradually evacuated to the north. Seeing that the situation was a little slow, Wu Wei hurriedly ordered his subordinates to avoid the road and let the crowd pass. Just kidding, it's not fun for these many people to rush over together, saving people is saving people, don't lose your own life, it's not worth it.

There must be a lot of people in the crowd who have been squeezed to the ground, and they can't take care of it now, and they can only be rescued by evacuating the crowd as much as possible, and there are people who have fallen into the water in the river, and they don't know how long they can hold on, so they can only ask for more blessings.

Having said that, he still had to do his best to save a few more people, Wu Wei ordered Lao Huang to lead people to collect ropes, bamboo poles and other things along the shops on the street, and at the same time ordered several other guards to blow whistles and order the soldiers scattered in the Ansai camp to move closer to his side.

The Ansai battalion is very different from any other army in this era, not only is it strictly disciplined and trained hard, but also the literacy and literacy campaign implemented by Wu Wei has made the learning atmosphere in the army quite strong.

It is said that Wu Wei used an artificial respiration method when he rescued Li Ruolin from the water last time, which attracted everyone's attention at that time, and in order to avoid being slandered as a disciple, Wu Wei also included modern first aid methods such as artificial respiration into compulsory courses. The whole Ansai battalion worships Wu as a god, and he naturally learns the life-saving method he teaches the most diligently and seriously, which can be said to be everyone's will.

Moreover, the whistle of the Ansai camp is not blown indiscriminately, there are laws for the length and slowness, and it is used to transmit military orders on the battlefield and assemble the team on weekdays, and everyone memorizes the meaning of it. I only heard Wu blowing three long whistles for several guards on this side, which was the number of troops gathering on the battlefield, and hearing this signal indicated that there was an emergency, and the nearby combatants must move closer to the whistle-blower.

Sure enough, as soon as the whistle stopped, I heard short whistles coming from all over the crowd one after another, it was the soldiers of the Ansai battalion scattered everywhere! (To be continued......)
