Chapter 156: The Central Cabinet Government Comes Forward (Asking for a Monthly Pass)

Whether it's trainsets, fatima, or anurag.

Gu Ji has only one purpose:

Let India's Central Cabinet Government come forward.

It's not just about accomplishing the game's objectives, it's about Assam being in a real quandary.

The state government's existing emergency rescue force is simply not enough to deal with such a large-scale flood, and if it weren't for Gu Jiji's repeated emphasis on moving a large number of people near the riverbank in advance, I don't know how many people would have been swept away by the flood!

Anurag pursed his lips in the earpiece and hesitated:

"The situation you predicted is indeed possible, and the situation is serious, but even if I report to the central cabinet now, from convening an emergency meeting to making decisions and mobilizing the troops of the military region, I am afraid it will take half a day at the earliest, and it will ...... then."

"Minister, so I suggest that you call on the hundreds of thousands of victims of the disaster shelter to publish a disaster relief petition on the online media, and then contact the director of the NDMA National Disaster Management Agency and the secretary of the environment ministry, bypass the cabinet secretary and the cabinet minister, and report directly to the Prime Minister's office!"

As Anurag has argued, India's central cabinet government is no less complex than state governments.

India is the prime minister's cabinet system, under the prime minister, there are cabinet ministers and ministry secretaries, equivalent to the ministers and executive deputy ministers of our ministries, after the double approval of the two, the document report will enter the hands of the cabinet secretary, and the cabinet secretary is the highest head of the Indian executive branch system, directly under the orders of the prime minister, responsible for connecting the prime minister's office and different Indian government executive departments.

Let's not talk about the time wasted by layers of approvals.

The most important thing is that many high-powered ministers are simply useless, especially in emergency response, and lack crisis sensitivity.

This is mainly due to the fact that many of India's democratically elected ministers are political cadres from different parties, or simply come to power through nepotism among party leaders, so it can be said that they have little experience or even no knowledge of managing the business of specific departments of the state.

Regarding this point, Gu Ji also studied typical negative cases in the university anti-terrorism emergency response class.

This is also known as the "11.26 Mumbai terrorist attack".

Among them, the teacher pointed out by name 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, and it took only an hour and a half to reach the scene of the attack in 10 hours, and even made an international joke of "special police arrived at the scene by bus", causing hundreds of innocent people to die.

Gu Ji didn't want to fail this mission again, losing his arm and missing a kidney, so he could only sacrifice a "yin trick".

Anurag has lived in Indian officialdom for a long time and knows that it is taboo for officialdom to report to a higher level.

But I have to say that extraordinary measures are used in extraordinary times, and at this time, one minute faster at this time is likely to save one more victim's life, so he grinned and agreed.

"You kid has a lot of ideas! I will do it, you and Fatima must do their best to ensure the safety of the victims in the train, and it is better to abandon the train and run away if it is really impossible than to drown in it at a critical moment! ”

"Yes! Minister! ”

Gu Ji knew that Anurag was a practical official, and he would definitely agree to his approach.

Next.

Just wait! Wait for the central government's aid to be approved!

But Gu Ji did not sit still completely, after he put down the phone, he first ordered the train to regularly cover the train with a flashlight or light source with a red cloth every 10 sections, wave it outward, and paste a few reflective flags he bought on the window glass, so that the rescue team could easily find them.

Then I went straight to car No. 2, which is the health care car.

Along the way, the emergency lighting of some carriages is still there, and some carriages are seriously damaged and pitch black, and only the black faces of the victims can be seen reflected by the bright light of their white mobile phones.

The raging flood water is still hitting the sides of the glass of the train, but perhaps after the initial raging period, the water level has gradually dropped to the halfway point of the window, the Indian soldiers are still busy dealing with the leakage of the train, and the victims are constantly refreshing the network under the arrangement of Fatima, trying to post the disaster situation in the car to the Internet.

Fatima saw Gu Ji coming over and briefly reported the results.

"Government officials are actively seeking help from nearby state governments, and only two have been contacted so far, Manipur has clearly refused, but Gharaya has promised to send police and fire to come to the rescue, because of the heavy rain, the victims' mobile phones have no network signal, and many situations and videos cannot be sent!"

"This is caused by the damage to the signal base station and the congestion of multiple people communicating online at the same time in a short period of time.

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 panicked by his "close" action, his ears turned red after a "rubbing", he lowered his head, and his hands were at a loss and he just cared for his clothes.

It wasn't until Gu Ji was far away that she reacted.

Gu Ji's reason for letting Fatima shoot more soldiers is very simple, on the one hand, it is to hype up the positive image of soldiers, which is equivalent to putting the Indian Military Region on the moral high ground, and on the other hand, it is also to attract the attention of the military.

If they don't send more troops to support, they will have to watch as nearly 120 soldiers on the train drown.

When you come to the vicinity of car No. 2, the car is lit up with orange and yellow horse lanterns.

From the door, Gu Ji heard a lot of screaming and moaning, he grabbed one of the emergency female doctors wearing a white coat and a red dot on the center of her eyebrows and asked, "How is the situation?" ”

"It is not optimistic, 8 people have died on the train, 7 of them were suffocated in the stampede, 1 person has just passed away from excessive blood loss, the remaining 13 seriously injured patients, 64 people with moderate and minor injuries, this carriage is soon insufficient, the most important thing is that the medical resources in the train are very limited, tourniquets and bandages are no longer enough, there are several patients who are about to survive, and need blood transfusion treatment as soon as possible."

The female doctor with the red dot shook her head, and her words were very anxious.

Gu Ji immediately threw off his backpack and found all the bandages, lyophilized chitosan hemostatic dressings, and spinning tourniquets inside, leaving only two sets of hemostatic bandages for his own backup, "You make a list of seriously injured patients who need blood transfusions, and I asked the soldiers to go to the volunteers in the train to donate blood." ”

When the female doctor with red dot saw these medical supplies, she was so surprised that she poked there like half a piece of wood.

The hemostatic dressing carried by Gu Ji alone is almost equivalent to 20% of the medical supplies of the entire train, and what the first responders did not expect was that his means of dealing with hemostasis were no less than that of professional medical care, and even more professional than many people present.

In fact, when Gu Ji first purchased medical supplies, the focus was on hemostasis, and other related antidiarrheal, anti-inflammatory, antibiotics and other drugs were rarely bought.

Whether it is a disaster, an accident, or an injury caused by a man-made attack, it will be accompanied by blood loss to a greater or lesser extent.

The principle of tactical first aid that he studied was "MARCH", that is, the initial treatment of the wounded in the order of controlling massive bleeding, opening the airway, ensuring breathing, blood circulation, and dealing with head injuries and hypothermia.

Among them, blood loss is the most urgent threat to the lives of the injured and must be a priority in this emergency system. In the case of the battlefield with the highest mortality rate, fatal hemorrhage accounts for about 85% of preventable war deaths and is the number one cause of death in combat trauma.

Therefore, controlling heavy bleeding is a 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 patients in the carriage and shouted: "Please everyone must work hard to persevere, the state government has sent a boat first aid team to arrive, and I will give priority to sending seriously injured patients to the hospital for treatment at that time, so you must not give up hope of survival!" ”

"Thank you, Venerable Mr. Vidi!"

"Ahem...... Mr. Vidi, you must be an apostle sent by Lord Shiva to save us, and I must thank you for your generosity! ”

As he spoke, one of the Indian uncles with a bleeding head was about to kneel down from his seat and was hurriedly stopped by the medical staff on the side.

The vast majority of the injured people here are low-caste people, and for them, they have never received such attention.

Not to mention that Gu Ji's "Vidi" himself is still a high-caste person, which is equivalent to the ancient dignitaries and dignitaries who were sympathetic to the untouchables, although it is a bit exaggerated, but for the current society of India, especially for remote areas, this is one of the realistic portrayals.

Fatima saw these in her eyes and recorded them with photos on her mobile phone and posted them online.

"Click, click......"

Before I knew it, the roof of the train and outside the window began to make a sound like fried beans.

Gu Ji raised his head, pulled out a strong flashlight and shone it outward, even through the window, he could still feel the roar of the flood, the ticking raindrops, accompanied by the sound of the wind, pouring down, hitting the glass and flowing down like a waterfall.

Fatima glanced at the phone.

"It's already 10:07, the atmospheric pressure has dropped to 995 hPa, and the precipitation of the tropical depression has hit!"

"Zizi...... Car 56 reported that a bright light was found outside the train, as if it was a rescue ......"

"Oh! Thank God! Rescue is coming! ”

"Ah——!h

……

As soon as she finished speaking, the voice of the soldier's report came from the walkie-talkie on Gu Ji's chest, but before he could finish speaking, the excited cheers of the victims came from the background.

"Oh no......"

He secretly said in his heart that the first aid team that rushed over at this time must be the two fire rescue boats sent by Anurag, and they couldn't save a few people at all, and he also promised the health security car to arrange for the seriously injured patients to leave first.

Human nature has a selfish side.

Everyone hopes that they are the first to be rescued, but when everyone learns that there is no one in this batch of rescues, the negative emotions of "disillusionment" will explode instantly, and once the rhythm is formed, it will be out of control, and may even destroy his credibility and command, causing artificial conflicts.

"Fatima, let the government officials and soldiers calm the emotions of the victims immediately!"

Gu Ji hurriedly commanded and ordered, quickly took off the fragrant medical gloves, and ran towards the back of the carriage.

But no matter how the soldiers suppressed, the human instinct for survival is always the strongest, even if it is far away, he heard the voice coming from the back half of the train, he took out the walkie-talkie again and shouted:

"Everyone! Don't cheer! Don't jump! The train can't withstand everyone's collective movement! This can easily cause the carriage to sink into the mud and be flooded earlier......"

Whoa——!

"Ahh

"There's water squirting in! Galava! Galava, what's wrong with you! ”

Just when Gu Ji ran to the 51st carriage, the carriage, which was already seriously damaged, suddenly shattered the windows of the car in the cheers and vibrations of the victims, and a huge column of water gushed in, instantly punching out a recent victim, and his head hit the table next to him, and the blood flowed out like a faucet that opened the floodgates.

"Everyone, stop making trouble! Car 51! In the No. 51 car, someone at the scene suffered a head injury and lost blood and fell into a coma, and immediately held down the bleeding point! Waiting for medical help! Soldiers, hurry up and seal the broken windows! ”

Gu Ji can be said to be very busy.

It is necessary to reprimand the victims, contact the medical emergency team, and direct the soldiers to plug the leak without stopping.

Finally, he finally made it to the back of the car.

Under the red light signal of the soldiers, the fire boat first aid team slowly stopped at the position of the 56th carriage through the road.

Through the window.

Everyone saw that there were two first aid teams, each with a total of two assault boats and two fishing boats, a total of eight, of which the assault boat was a 3.8-meter orange inflatable rubber boat with a small engine, and the fishing boat was a small non-powered boat of about 4 meters.

In terms of the specifications of the assault boat, it can only accommodate 6 people at most, and excluding the driver and the firefighters in charge of the rescue, these two rescue teams can take away 15 or 6 people.

Some of the more intelligent victims seemed to understand this, and the smiles on their faces immediately dissipated a lot.

The leader of the huggar fireboat captain grabbed the handle of the train door through the road, and tried to communicate with the people in the train through the slight gap.

"I'm Azim, the water rescue captain of the Dispur Fire Department, and we were called by the Minister of Disaster Management of the State, who is Mr. Vidi? What's going on inside? ”

"I'm Viddy!"

Gu Ji asked Fatima and the soldiers to arrange for the train to be quiet, and then shouted against the crack in the door: "At present, the train is still barely supporting, the rain may become heavy at any time, the train is at risk of being flooded, we need more rescue!" ”

Because there were people at the scene, it was impossible for him to say no words.

In fact, the silence of the train is an inevitable event.

Azim wiped the rain from his beard, 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 that I can only take 15 people, you need to make a decision as soon as possible!" ”

"Take away the seriously injured patients and children first! You guys go on, in car 3! We met ...... in the train lavatory"

Unexpectedly, before Gu finished speaking, he was rejected by the victims behind him.

"Why did you pull them first? Since they were all seriously injured and didn't have long to live, why didn't they prioritize saving those who could survive? ”

"That's right! We have waited here for so long, and we have also contributed to the repair of leakage points in the carriage, but the result is not as good as a few old, weak, sick and disabled, what kind of crooked reasoning! ”

"Honorable Mr. Vidi, please let me go first, I am also seriously ill and my blood sugar has been bad......"

"Mr. Vidi, I respect your command ability, but I think there is something wrong with this rescue and evacuation plan, government officials and social elites should be given priority to go first, these are the people who contribute to Assam, as for those low-caste refugees, you just do superficial work, I am Swaraj, I work in the office of the secretary of the state government, make friends......"

The victims of the disaster came and went, and one by one they spoke very fast, and their voices became louder and louder, and when they disagreed, they quarreled and started their hands.

Gu Ji glanced at it, leaving aside those volunteers, some of whom were people from the upper caste.

The most interesting thing is that a government official who finally grabbed him by the shoulders and led him to a corner, muttering quietly, his expression and tone full of sarcasm compared to his identity.

Gu Ji gently pulled off the other party's wrist, turned his back to the wall of the passage, turned his head to look at the victims, took out the walkie-talkie and said:

"I'm sorry, listen to me first, the state government's current rescue force is really limited, it is impossible to rescue everyone at the same time, it needs to be rescued in batches, I promise you, I will accompany you to the end, take everyone out of here, but before that, I also hope that you will not be in a hurry, to distinguish the urgency of the situation, and give priority to patients who need more treatment to leave first!"

"Mr. Vidi, since the state government has limited capacity, why do you think it can save so many of us?"

"He's just what he says! In fact, it's not up to them who are officials to decide! Maybe he'll be the first to escape! ”

"I also saw him whispering something to that thief-eyed official, he must have gotten rid of us!"

"It's starting to rain outside, so we're not really going to drown here, are we?"

"This Vidi Dali is a complete liar! I heard it all now, and I knew that the government rescue team was in the town, so it was better not to get on the train, and it was at least safer to stay at home than here! ”

Unexpectedly, Gu Ji's patient explanation not only did not convince the victims, but caused everyone to fight back even more.

He squinted, noticing that the most squirting were the first few of the first to refute, including the secretary's office he had refused.

And Fatima on the side was so angry that she blushed for a while, and was blue for a while.

"Shut up! Do you want to hear what you've said? From the first day of the rainstorm, Vidi has been running around, thinking about how to save everyone, if he hadn't predicted the disaster in advance, we might have been flooded; The rescue team is deployed in the town, not because there is a problem with the transfer strategy, but because the current disaster situation in the town is more serious, and the flood level is close to six meters. ”

"And how many people can stay in a building that is more than 6 meters old in a town? Let's think about it again, the first time the flood came, was Vidi the first to remind everyone, was he the first to stabilize the chaotic carriage, was he the first to stand up and command everyone to plug the leakage and save the wounded? If such a hero could be slandered as a sinner, even the god Shiva in heaven would be angry! ”

It may be that Fatima's fierce tone wakes everyone up, or it may be that the last sentence of "Lord Shiva" evokes the conscience of the victims.

At this time, a shriveled uncle with a curly hair and a tattered orange robe, with his hands folded, knelt in the stagnant water.

"Call God by name, God bless! When the goddess of the Ganges descended from the snow-capped heavenly realm, Shiva, in order to prevent the water from flooding all beings too violently, personally took the water with his head, and let the Ganges flow between his hair for thousands of years, and then flow back to the human world after buffering......"

What he is talking about is the mythical story of Lord Shiva's self-sacrifice, which is intended to refer to Gu Ji being the embodiment of Lord Shiva's spiritual power to save the common people.

After hearing this, many people lowered their heads in shame.

Let's think about it carefully, everything is just as Fatima said, from the train accident to the present, Gu Ji has indeed been at the front, if it weren't for him, I'm afraid the train would have been flooded a long time ago.

Gu Ji took this opportunity to raise his tone.

"Don't worry, I have reported to the Central Cabinet Government through three channels, I believe that soon the army will send a large number of air and water troops to save everyone, as for the identity of the first batch of rescued people you are worried about falsifying, I welcome you to personally supervise, but if someone maliciously provokes public relations, deducts hats, labels, and engages in confrontation, then don't blame me for taking coercive measures against you!"

The last sentence, he said it word by word, a cold fierce light flashed in his eyes, and his right hand deliberately touched the fire axe in the side pocket of the backpack, and suddenly saw that the men who deliberately provoked trouble shuddered.

The Indian soldiers glanced at each other, and also took the initiative to stand up, staring at the victims with stern faces, which could be regarded as supporting Gu Ji.

As soldiers, they know that they must have a tough hand at this time, otherwise in a closed environment, once the people form a rebellious mentality, there will be a division of power.

So far.

Righteousness and morality, personnel and force, government appointments, on-site command, medical and food resources.

It's all in Gu Ji's hands, and those victims naturally don't dare to make trouble anymore.

He took Fatima and ran briskly back to car No. 3.

One of the good things about this old-fashioned train in India is the vents!

That's right, similar to the earliest domestic green trains, there is actually no air conditioning, and you can only rely on fans to dissipate heat in summer, and the vents are set up in the bathroom to disperse the smell.

"Be careful, everyone!"

Gu Ji reminded him, and pulled the bathroom door open, and with a "bang", a large amount of sewage mixed with a disgusting smell came to his face.

This is because the flood water poured up through the squatting hole at the bottom, and it must have smelled bad.

Fortunately, he wore underground waterproof overalls, and the government and soldiers, including Fatima, had already changed into 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 the crowbar, and forcefully pinned the vent at the top.

It was a circular vent with a lid on it, and when it was covered, there were only four finger-thick gaps for exhaust air, and when all of them were lifted, there was enough for one person to pass through.

The rain ran down the exhaust and hit him in the face.

At this time, the people of the fire brigade also climbed to the top of the train through the side, and the captain Acim spoke in disbelief.

"Oh my God, how did you manage to keep such a long train from being submerged in a flood?"

"Maybe God is protecting you."

Gu Ji was too lazy to explain too much, and now he should transfer the injured as soon as possible, "Many seriously injured patients have lost too much blood and are very weak, you must be careful when transferring from the top to the assault boat, it is best to tie a safety rope sleeve!" ”

After alerting the firefighters, he began asking Fatima to pad nearby suitcases and supplies to the bottom of the restroom, making it easier for the injured to pass through the vents.

The victims of the No. 3 car next door were lying at the door, looking "pitiful" at those who were favored by the god of luck and could leave the train, at least no longer have to stand in the muddy water.

In the process of transporting the wounded.

The phone in Gu Ji's pocket vibrated again, and he asked Fatima to continue staring, and when he connected, it was the Minister of Disasters, Anurag, "Minister, is there any news?" ”

"That's right, the director has met with the prime minister with information, your trick is really powerful, now the media about the flood in northern Assam, has been on the Indian news hot search, New Delhi TV, "India Today" website, etc. have reported the matter, the prime minister also got angry on the spot, reprimanded the cabinet ministers such as environment and water conservancy for ineffective work, it is estimated that the above will soon contact the train to communicate the situation, you must seize the opportunity."

"Thanks to the minister's efforts, this is saved!"

Gu Ji deliberately amplified his voice and told this sentence to the onlookers, and when these people heard the word "rescue", their hearts once again ignited a raging hope.

It didn't take long for the conductor's voice to come over the intercom:

"Zizi, this is the train group, the director of the National Disaster Management Bureau wants to know the specific situation in the car, Mr. Weidi, I'm afraid I will trouble you to come over!"

"Good!"

Gu Ji has been waiting for this moment for too long, he hurriedly ran towards the rear of the car, the conductor's office seat is generally in the middle of the train, or next to the dining car), usually 8~11 carriages.

Arriving at the No. 10 car, several conductors in khaki uniforms looked at Gu Ji with big eyes, as if they didn't expect the man who was dealing with the train crisis to be so young.

The first middle-aged bearded Indian uncle with two horizontal shoulder epaulettes shook the black wired walkie-talkie in his hand and handed it over, "The signal may sometimes be bad, and you have to repeat it several times when you hear a noise." ”

"Okay, I'm Vidi Dali, can you hear me?"

"You're the Deputy Commissioner for Disasters that Anurag strongly recommended? Let's talk about the current situation in the train......"

"I'm very sorry Director, we are really running out of time, I need a leader who can give decisive orders to talk to me, and to talk back and forth to discuss, it will only waste golden rescue time!"

When Gu Ji said this, he was so frightened that the train captain on the side almost choked to death, so he could only forcibly cover his mouth and cough.

That's the head of the central cabinet government!

In addition to the Prime Minister, Cabinet Secretaries, Cabinet Ministers, and Secretaries of Ministries and Commissions, the most powerful officials of the State Division!

Unexpectedly, there was a laugh on the phone, and the director of the National Disaster Management Bureau did not seem to be angry, and then the conversation was blank for two seconds, and the other end of the receiver was changed, and his voice was obviously much lower and more serious.

"I'm Cabinet Secretary Gaoba, if you have any questions, you can tell me directly."

"Mr. Goba, can you make a decision? I remember that the Cabinet Secretariat was only responsible for the IAS Indian administrative services and civil servants under the government's business rules, and it seemed that it was not possible to transfer to the army. ”

"We are holding an ad hoc meeting of the National Crisis Management Committee in New Delhi, with the Secretary of the Interior and the Deputy Chief of Staff of the Air Force right 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, in fact, he was saying: "The only senior central cabinet official you can contact at present is me, is it possible that you still want to talk directly to the prime minister?" ”

"Mr. Goba, we are in the midst of an extreme crisis, the flood is threatening the lives of 10,000 civilians, 120 army soldiers, and 31 government officials in Assam and the train, and the state government rescue team is now powerless to ......be distracted by the heavy rainfall brought by the tropical depression that is causing the water level to rise and threaten to flood the carriages at any time."

"I understand the situation, I will send four additional rescue teams of the national disaster relief and emergency force, about 200 rescue personnel, and the air force will send a transport plane, five helicopters and two teams of naval frogmen to the disaster area, and the estimated time is 1 hour and 20 minutes, landing at Dibrueger Airport."

The Cabinet Secretary is worthy of being the head of government, the prime minister's top think tank.

Gu Ji had just finished reporting the data, and the other party immediately designed the corresponding rescue measures, and it seemed that he had a lot of experience, but perhaps in the relationship of the capital, he still lacked enough attention to the crisis of the scene.

In particular, there was one piece of data that he hadn't figured out yet.

"Mr. Gaoba, may I ask how many additional boat troops will be dispatched, especially the number of rubber rescue boats!"

"What exactly do you want to say?"

"Flood environment, top fashion, should be motorized rubber boat as the main combat equipment, and in accordance with the international general rubber rescue boat standard, a total length of 3.8m inflatable rescue boat with a protective bottom plate, matching power 15 ~ 30 horses, the number of passengers controlled at 5 ~ 7 people, such as the selection of a total length of 4.2m inflatable rescue boat with a protective bottom plate, matching power 30 ~ 40 horses, the number of passengers controlled at 6 ~ 8 people, front and rear speed are 50KM per hour."

"According to the Air Force maneuver response, transport aircraft landing preparation time, the distance to the nearest disaster shelter center, etc., we only have one and a half hours at most rescue time, that is, three trips, then at least 400 rubber boat rescue boats will be dispatched, and 30 horses 4 deck boats are generally equipped with 2 people, that is, 1 commander and lifeguard and 1 driver, 40 horses 5 deck boats should be equipped with 3 people, that is, 1 commander, 1 lifeguard and 1 pilot, we take half of the value, a total of at least 1,000 people must be dispatched!"

I'm taking the time to change these days! Rush!
