Chapter 88: Retrograde Epicenter (1)
Xiao Yuan didn't eat in the afternoon today, he came back from the attached courtyard, he just sat in this pavilion in a daze, Zi Yan knew that today was the day of the earthquake between Haiyuan and Guyuan, and she also quietly accompanied him.
On the wooden table of the pavilion was a piece of paper that read: "According to the measurement of the seismic station of Midu Medical University, the longitude and latitude of the epicenter of the earthquake in Huaxia were electrified in Midu Province, Tengyue Province, Yunnan
36 degrees north latitude, 105 degrees east longitude
Source depth
20 km
Magnitude
8.8 on the Richter scale
Epicenter intensity
12 degrees
At 20:06 on December 16, 1920 (the ninth year of the Republic of China), Guyuan County and Haiyuan County in Gansu Province were the epicenter locations.
Micheng, thousands of miles away, finally felt the seismic waves of the global earthquake, and Zi Yan already felt unsteady on her feet, reaching out to hold on to the table in the pavilion. The water surface of Ssangyong Sea Pool was swelled by the earthquake.
"It's time to come or it's coming, hey! Baby! Let Junko hand it over to her eldest brother-in-law and electrify the whole country! I don't know how many people will pay attention and will go to disaster relief.
But we will not sit idly by, we will definitely go, led by you and me, and we will set off tomorrow.
You go and ask the fourth brother to prepare the pack horse and medicine, I will organize a rescue team of the Medical University, let the student union, the professor will move, and the affiliated hospital of the Medical University will also have doctors and nurses. "
"Junzi, Junzi come here" was shining a horse lantern on the shore of Shuanglong Sea Pool, using a harpoon to pick the fish Junzi, and when the earthquake occurred, he also fell down, when he heard his sister-in-law call him, patted the ash on his ass and ran from the road to the pavilion.
Zi Yan carefully picked up the note and checked it under the lantern again, confirmed that it was correct, and then handed it to Junzi: "Quickly hand this over to your aunt and father, and send it out quickly, so that you can save many people."
Junko took the note and rode on his horse and ran in the direction of Micheng, at this time the school behind Junzi suddenly came out of the hustle and bustle, and Junko looked back and saw that a string of lights was walking towards the lake pavilion of Shuanglong Haitan.
The people of the seismic observation team were the most excited because they had recorded the earthquake completely and came to Mr. with the data.
Xiao Yuan glanced at the data, and then substituted the data into a simple calculation formula, and obtained a data similar to the parallel universe he was in.
The students took the data he gave and asked, "Sir, what can we do if the epicenter didn't kill and injure countless people?"
"Retrograde, advance to the epicenter for disaster relief"
The hardships of the road, covered in yellow mud, five hundred mules and horses approached the epicenter step by step under the leadership of Daddy and Ma Laohan, and the two old men walked cautiously in front. The pack caravan was long, and the mules were hurrying along the way.
The two-pole flag fluttered in the cold wind, one was the flag of the Kindness Huaxia Charity Association, and the other was the Miyi Great Rescue Association, Xiao Yuan rode on the Buddhist green horse, looking at Zi Yan who was tightly wrapped in front.
Xiao Yuan knows that this is about to go out of Sichuan into Longnan in Gansu, here is the house that has been damaged by the earthquake in Wenxian County, Gansu Province, there are a small number of houses collapsed, and enter the county seat of Wenxian County in the north of Guanjiagou to burn the pass, it is one of the famous Xiongguan in Wenxian County, it is extremely steep, it is the fortress of Yinping Ancient Plank Road, and the ancient battlefield of the Yuan Dynasty soldiers and horses fought and killed by fire.
Qing Dynasty poets Beidi and Li Mengyang's poem "Fire Burning Pass" said: The gully borer often keeps electricity, and the mountains are deep and the clouds are brewed. There are still traces of fire, endure reading the inscription! The ancient people were less inhabited, and the frost was cold and wild. That's too much, who wants to smell the hard work.
Guanjiagou Wuli Pass, there are the ruins of Wuliguan and Wang Xingzu's tomb where Fu Youde's subordinate general Wang Xingzu died in battle during the Ming Dynasty.
Came to the gate of Wenxian County, at this time Wenxian County magistrate Li Xiangguo had already welcomed him there, the scene was very warm, Li Xiangguo tightly held Xiao Yuan's hand and said: "Mr. Xiao, the whole country is praising you, they all call you a national soldier, I am the county magistrate of Wenxian Li Xiangguo, today I saw Mr. style, fortunately!"
I came to introduce Mr. Han Dingshan, the principal of Wen County High School, Zhang Haiguan, the president of the Chamber of Commerce, and Han Chong, the police chief.
I have a small table of food in the back hall of the county government, please enjoy the gentleman, this is the order given to me by the governor, he said that the gentleman is the holy hand of the national doctor, is the national scholar, and should be seriously received.
The people of the whole country are watching him, and the governments of the South and the North hope that he will stay in a safe place. ”
"County Magistrate Li, you're polite, can you find a place for us to rest, we don't need to go into the city, tomorrow we have to rest for a full day, we will go directly to Guyuan and then to Haiyuan."
It's already hell on earth, but there is not much relief for the Chinese people, and your province doesn't want to save it? After the animal tax, we want to try to get there as soon as possible. "
"I asked the police chief Han Chong to press the platoon, and when my husband didn't arrive in Wenxian County, we donated a sum of money to buy food and send it to the epicenter.
Director Han, the prepared things were sent to the colleagues of the Medical University, so that they could have a meal, and show the hospitality of our Gansu people. "
"It's County Magistrate Li, Han Zhong will definitely live up to your trust, be a good landlord, and not let down the colleagues of the Medical University."
"County Magistrate Li is also a caring person!"
"That was also the first initiation of the Medical University, we followed, Mr. Xiao is not please appreciate, but also on behalf of Gansu thank Mr. Thank you for your love to our Gansu."
"County Magistrate Li, please lead the way, then I will be disrespectful,"
Xiao Yuan and County Magistrate Li walked on the bluestone paved streets, with shops on both sides of the street, all kinds of shouts, and the sounds of buying and selling, which seemed to be very lively.
The county seat of Wenxian County has experienced vicissitudes, thousands of long years, the city has been relocated several times, and the county seat has been built four times: the county seat before the Tang Dynasty is in Xiyuan Village, which is the county seat of Qushui County in history, that is, the old city of Wenzhou in ancient times, and there are still the ruins of the city wall of Qushui County and Wenzhou in the Western Wei Dynasty; In the third year of the establishment of Tang Dezong (782 AD), the county seat of Qushui in Wenzhou was moved to Shangcheng today; In the fourth year of Hongwu in the Ming Dynasty (1371 AD), the Yuan soldiers broke through the city of Wenzhou, changed Wenzhou to Wen County, and moved the city to the current "Suocheng" (named after the "Thousand Households" under the military control of the Ming Dynasty); In the sixth year of Chenghua in the Ming Dynasty (A.D.), the "county seat" (named after the county government) was extended, and three city walls were built.
Chengguan Town, the window of Wenxian County, is full of scenery and scenic spots, and there are many cultural relics and historic sites. Historically, four of the "Eight Views of Wenxian County" (Xiaoji Wentai, Xiyuan Spring, Qingni Waterfall, and Praying Mantis Sunset) are all near the county seat. There have been many literati and sorcerers chanting songs, and there is no shortage of swan songs for the ages.
The Qing Dynasty poet Li Guoshi's poem "Spring in the Western Yuan" said: The scenery of the West Garden is very good, and it is prosperous to take advantage of the leisure to travel. The sun is warm and the peach is brocade, the breeze is sunny and the willow flowers are fragrant, the marsh fish turns over the jade, and the trees surround the village birds and make springs. The straw is both on the cang, and the wild man hits the soil and is happy.
Qing Dynasty poet Liu Dayou poem "Waterfall Qingni" said: A group of flying springs and cliffs, I wonder that the sky is falling on the Milky Way. Qianxun is practiced in the green mountains, and 10,000 pearls are sprinkled with green rose. The vocal cords are breezy and autumnal, and the shape shakes the bright moon and the night is cold. Shengyou seems to have climbed to a fairyland, looking at the white clouds and singing from afar.
Xiyuan Spring, Dishui Cliff Waterfall, Mr. can visit here, you can also see the ancient "Qushui County", "Wenzhou City" one spot" Han Dingshan followed Xiao Yuan to the side of the history of Wenxian County, the scenery was introduced.
"Mr. Han has a good memory, I studied science, and my memory of words is not as good as Mr. Han's, but Mr. Han's words let me have a full understanding of Wenxian, thank you Mr. Han for your introduction."
"Mr. Xiao is polite, I have a reluctant request in Dingshan, can Mr. come to our high school tomorrow to give a speech, this earthquake makes everyone panic, I know that this is mainly because I don't know about earthquakes.
Chinese people say that Mr. is a master of earthquakes, and even Westerners are in awe of Mr. Earthquake's knowledge! Listening to Mr. Narration will definitely eliminate the ignorance of many people. ”
"Come and pick me up at ten o'clock tomorrow morning, I'll go with you to Mr. Han, this is very good, Mr. Han's idea is worth promoting, you reminded me, chatting and chatting to the county office!"
Li Xiangguo used a mutton shabu hot pot to entertain Xiao Yuan, which was affordable and elegant.
"Mr. Xiao, our Chamber of Commerce and the government organized a batch of materials, which is the county magistrate Li himself donated a month's salary, and took the lead in donating a sum of materials, and the businessmen of the Chamber of Commerce also rushed to donate a sum, and there are also donations from the residents of Chengguan Town, we have replaced it with materials The day after tomorrow and you will go on the road together, Mr. Xiao, you look good."
"It's all for the people of Haiyuan Guyuan, let's go together if we have nothing to do!"
"Mr. Xiao, it is said that the confirmed death toll has reached 100,000, the victims lack food and clothing, the wounded have no one to treat, the province has been doing its best to provide disaster relief, this is also the decision made by Mr. Qianli to help the province, not only the province, the whole country is Mr. took the lead after the beginning, Gansu people say that Mr. is the heart of China.
I heard that the 100,000 oceans of Beiyang ** disaster relief materials have been shipped, ready to be transported to Xi'an, and then transported by mules and horses, the southern government in Shanghai, Guangzhou, organized people to donate, donations will buy ready-to-wear money and food, will also be shipped from time to time, Mr. Xiao, this is all after you founded the Mi Yi University to go thousands of miles to the disaster area, it has attracted the country's attention to the disaster area.
In the past few days, the newspapers have said that Mr. Xiao's medical university has brought the kindness of the Chinese people, and the whole country is contributing to the disaster victims, thank you! Thank you! After speaking, Zhang Haiguan stood up and bowed to Xiao Yuan.
"President Zhang, you wait for us!" County Magistrate Li stood up and said, "Come and give Mr. Xiao a toast, sir, please accept the thanks of our Wenxian people, and I, Li Xiangyuan, will do it first." After speaking, County Magistrate Li drank the wine in one gulp. The rest of them did the same.
Xiao Yuan also saw the humanity of these people of the Republic of China, in such a situation, the good thoughts of Huaxia are still full of the blood of the people, and they are willing to use their meager income to save their compatriots in the depths of fire.
What they are missing is the retrograde, taking the lead. A civilization that has existed for 5,000 years will not be destroyed by a catastrophe, it will be reborn from the ashes and soar into the sky.
