Chapter 44 Do it for it

A large number of waiting people gathered in Fuyun County, no less than the Li'an Port on the opposite bank.

The sudden rumble, with tremors on the soles of the feet, like an earthquake, brought a silence!

The residents who were leisurely looking at the sea just now looked terrified.

Even the group of people who protested and pulled up the banners were too scared to shout slogans in front of the international media cameras.

"what happened?"

"Is there an earthquake?"

People from different countries express the same meaning in different languages.

Soon, the black crowd spread sporadic cries for help like a wave——

"The bridge is collapsing! Help!"

The command room of the sea rescue joint exercise got the news almost at the moment when the bridge collapsed.

Because the residents of Baodao kept calling 119 and 110, a large number of anxious distress calls continued to spread like emergency medical treatment. Even the National Maritime Rescue Center 12395 received a call for help, so it was immediately transferred to the joint exercise command room.

The methodical training was interrupted, and the rough seas were calm.

Anyone can feel the seriousness of the "bridge collapse" from the chaotic help-seeking on the other side.

The views of the head of the South China Sea Fleet and the rescue team are surprisingly consistent.

They made a decision without discussing it.

"Let's contact the Baodao garrison immediately."

Within 1 minute of the bridge collapse, every public call for help was occupied by howls of ghosts and wolves from Fuyun County, and the communication on the island was almost paralyzed by the call for help in an instant.

In less than 5 minutes, the live video and live broadcast of the collapsed bridge in Fuyun County appeared on the Internet.

Countless media people guarding here to film protests and wait for the South China Sea Fleet to clash with the public, all the disaster scenes were captured as soon as the camera turned.

The bridge across the water has become ruins smashed into the water.

The tin bus plunged obliquely into the mud of the river bed, muddying the clear water of the river.

Even with the low-definition mobile phone footage, you can still see many people struggling to reach the shore, struggling to catch the helping hands extended by the people on the shore.

"Now, now we are at the bridge in Fuyun County. Just now, the bridge collapsed."

"The number of victims cannot be estimated. The rescue team should be on the way. Please don't be afraid."

"We were surprised by the accident, but there is no doubt that it was caused by the subsidence caused by the bus driving over the bridge."

Putonghua, Taiwan dialect and foreign languages ​​are intertwined,

They forced a calm broadcast, trying to convey the current situation of Baodao to the audience.

Everyone said with certainty: the rescue team is on the way, and the fire police will be here soon.

However, after 5 minutes passed, they did not hear the siren, let alone see the angel in white.

The small treasure island seems to be vast, rich in resources and sparsely populated. It has been so long without any figure representing the government appearing in front of the camera.

Only the people lying on the shore crying in pain and screaming hoarsely expressed the tragic situation at the scene clearly.

The viewers who were standing in front of the network and completely unaware of the situation in Baodao felt extremely anxious as they watched the sinking bus.

When the bridge cement fragments smashed in, it was a huge echo.

They still don't understand, why haven't magic soldiers descended from the sky and dived to save people?

"What's going on? The rescue efficiency of Baodao is so low?"

"Fuyun County isn't very big, so if you just walk to call the police, it's time for the fire department to come."

"Are there any islanders, tell me how far your Fuyun County firefighters are from the incident?"

"It's not far! It's coming!"

If it weren't for the barrage reminder, the audience might not be able to spot the shadow of the rescue team from the bustling crowd.

Fortunately, the reporter who broadcast the news was professional. She held the microphone and shouted happily: "The firefighters and police have arrived at the scene to start rescue."

Unfortunately, the camera showed the group of firefighters in uniform. The first thing they did was not to jump into the river to rescue them, but to maintain order!

"Give way if you don't want help." The firefighters dispersed the surrounding people.

Several friends and relatives who lost control of their emotions rushed over and shouted, "When are you going to rescue people? Aren't you going to rescue people?"

"I will save you, the crane and the lifeboat are over there, please step aside!"

Then mercilessly push people away.

The embarrassing scene entered the live broadcast without warning.

The barrage filled the screen, and the silly white sweet residents of the mainland showed eyes that had never seen a big scene.

——Is this all right?

——I'll go, if this is our city, everyone from leaders to firefighters will be dismissed on the spot.

——Aren’t people from Baodao making trouble?Rushed up and pulled the banner to scold him to death!

——Fuck, people are struggling in the water, and the firefighters are watching the wind on the shore, what a real cooking seed oil.

The lazy attitude of the firefighters angered the inland people in front of the live broadcast screen.

The people of Taiwan seem to be used to it, and they are still anxiously waiting for the crane and lifeboat to arrive at the scene.

Firefighters are people too, and firefighters are just a job.

Without the assistance of machinery and equipment, and without boats, how could it be possible to go into the water to save people.

None of the reporters who were live broadcasting the scene raised any doubts, and none of them rushed to speak out.

There are even foreigners standing in front of the camera, calmly replaying the disaster that happened before them, without being confused by the behavior of the firefighters.

He said: "We can be sure that the collapse of this bridge was caused by the South China Sea Fleet military exercise-"

"The fleet is coming ashore!" The sudden shout overwhelmed all the noise in my ears.

Far away in front of the TV, thousands of kilometers away from abroad, you can hear the surprise and amazement contained in the Chinese.

The reporter who reviewed the disaster seems to have waited for excellent material.

He ran with the crowd with a microphone in his hand, and said excitedly: "Now the South China Sea Fleet is taking advantage of the chaos to land on the island. The audience can feel the anger and criticism in the face of this disaster!"

The media climax came surprisingly simply.

Everything that can trip China is a victory for them to rejoice.

It doesn't matter how many victims are soaked in the river.

It doesn't matter how many fire brigade and government officials are on the shore.

The most important thing is to say "China!", which arouses the anger of everyone, and becomes the target of all contradictions!

The hands of international photographers are shaking.

Exciting.

Even if he faces a missile or a gun right now, he will achieve immortal glory after his death.

They can even imagine.

In the next five or ten years, the news footage that I personally broadcast will become precious information, so that China will no longer be able to refute the facts in the face of the truth!

However, they are ready to film the moment when the war is on the verge of breaking out.

But all I saw was iron-gray warships docking quickly, and every soldier who disembarked had a medical cross armband on his arm!

The foreign journalists who witnessed all this cursed inwardly: they have to put on a show after landing on the island.

However, this group of soldiers, who they saw as a show, assembled and moved forward in a well-trained manner, and there were even stretchers and medical boxes behind them.

The arrival of the South China Sea Fleet has already caused panic among the islanders. Now that the soldiers are moving forward in groups, many people rushed over like crazy and shouted, "What are you doing?"

Not only shout, but also stop.

The main force of the protests showed a slapstick attitude, ready to make the "conflict" a reality.

But they didn't expect that they were stopped by the soldiers on the edge of the team before they blocked the way with their bodies.

"Don't worry, folks, we are here to save people."

"Don't panic, don't panic, don't worry, fellow, we will definitely be able to rescue everyone."

"Back, step back, step on your foot."

While declaring their purpose aloud, they stopped the group of crazy islanders and cleared a passage to ensure the passage of the follow-up team.

Surprisingly skilled and daring islanders could only watch as this well-trained team rushed to the site of the bridge collapse.

This has not yet fired guns or cannons, and the crisis has been resolved with bare hands.

The islanders who had no fighting power were dumbfounded, as if they had become onlookers welcoming the South China Sea Fleet.

The helicopter passed overhead, bringing up a gust of wind, and they only had time to roar——

"Who, who is your hometown!"

The rescue drill in the South China Sea turned into an island rescue.

These soldiers stationed at the sea are still omnipotent soldiers of the Chinese People's Liberation Army on land.

It took less than 4 minutes for the fleet to dock and line up to go down the river.

They reached the shore at a rapid march, went down the embankment, and set up inflatable rubber boats on the way into the river!

The panicked residents around saw this neat and quiet team, and the helicopter had already hovered over the top of the submerged bus.

Several rubber boats approached the collapsed bridge.

They didn't care that the color of the military uniform was unfamiliar, and many people were happy to tell them.

"The army is coming, our army is coming."

The islanders who have seen the lazy and leisurely appearance of countless Baodao local troops hate iron for steel.

"Fart, those are mainland soldiers!"

Residents of Baodao have never seen such a quick rescue team.

It took less than a minute from when they showed up to when the first victim in the bus was rescued and transported back.

The previous panic and fear turned into praise.

So fast, so reliable, the troops from Baodao were not used, so as not to delay the real rescue force to save lives.

"Reporting to the command, the rescue team has rescued four people who fell into the water, carried out the rescue and sent them to the ambulance from Baodao. The rest of the trapped people, because the bus was collapsed and deformed by the bridge, got their hands and feet stuck, and their lives are not in danger. .Now apply to cut the bus, please instruct!"

Standing in the command room, everyone breathed a sigh of relief when they heard the report clearly.

It took too long for the bridge to collapse, and there were still ships under it, so they thought it was too late.

Fortunately, the river is still shallow. After the boat was smashed, it can still float on the river. The bus that fell into the water was in an upside-down state. Most of the people who fell into the water, waiting for rescue, curled up on the side of the boat or bus, not daring to move. , or got stuck, injured his limbs, and couldn't move, so he was trapped until now.

No deaths is the greatest good news.

The commander replied concisely and without any hesitation: "I agree to cut the bus, act immediately, and report the situation ahead in real time."

The life crisis was lifted, but everyone's faces were not easy.

The soldiers felt uneasy because the accident endangered the safety of the people.

But those who were doing the construction work on the spot knew how serious the risks and hidden dangers were behind the collapse of the bridge.

Weng Chengxian sighed and said, "Treasure Island is located in a typhoon belt. In the past few years, there have been news that the bridge has been unmaintained for a long time, and there are risks. Who knows..."

"They've been doing bridge maintenance and probably haven't had time to repair the bridge in Fuyun County."

Lifeng has studied the situation of bridges in Baodao.

Those bridges whose construction life is claimed to be as long as 70 years have experienced raging typhoons, and most of them are extremely fragile.

In recent years, roads have been closed and bridges repaired one after another. There is not much news, but at least Baodao is aware of the situation and has not ignored it.

But he didn't expect that the bridge in Fuyun County would be so unstoppable.

Before the typhoon came, it was destroyed by the crowd of onlookers, which is simply unimaginable.

"It doesn't necessarily mean that it hasn't been repaired in time." Yin Yiqiao's opinion is completely different from that of Moderate Pai.

He said: "The local architects in Baodao often have high knowledge, but their building operation and maintenance management capabilities are extremely poor. If their maintenance attitude is the same as I know, then the bridges they maintain may not be able to Take it lightly."

"Hey." Thinking of Xia Yingjie's face, Qu Fei could imagine the bridges in Fuyun County, "As far as their three-legged cat skills are concerned, I would suggest overturning and rebuilding all the buildings that the Island Research Institute has handled!"

Disaster is in front of us, and any possibility seems inevitable.

Taiwan's experience of typhoons is often accompanied by news of dozens of broken bridges.

In the end, it all came to an end in the midst of scholars and officials fighting each other.

Li Feng looked at the picture sent back by the drone on the monitoring screen.

Bad bridge wreckage and chaotic crowds, it's a hellish scene for those who do the bridge work.

Before he could say anything, Yin Yiqiao's phone vibrated crazily.

Yin Yiqiao walked out of the command room and answered the channel: "Grandpa, it's all right. The people in our fleet have already passed, and there is no news of death for the time being."

Yin Zhili is far away in England, so he can't feel at ease at all.

The time difference between Britain and China does not prevent the TV station from starting late at night and broadcasting the news of the South China Sea Fleet rescue drill in real time.

British TV specially invited military review experts to aggressively analyze the situation of China's landing on Treasure Island on TV.

There are no pictures, but in their mouths, it seems like a war has started, and the water is in dire straits.

There was no good news on the Internet either.

The international media almost attacked the bridge when it collapsed, and even believed that the missile launched by the South China Sea Fleet was a conspiracy.

"The public opinion is in chaos now." Yin Zhili said in a tired voice, "It's good that people are fine."

Yin Yiqiao is well aware of the style of the British media.

I am afraid that in the hearts of those people, everything has turned into a bloody battle to suppress the demonstrations.

If you are not Chinese, no matter how you explain it, you will not be able to make it clear to foreigners: China is really not afraid of demonstrations, let alone protests from Taiwan.

Looking at the calm South China Sea, Yin Yiqiao said with a smile, "Let them mess up, we'll do as long as we don't."

Grandpa's old laughter came from the mobile phone, "I am relieved to hear you say that. I have been to Baodao in the early years, and the architecture and bridge technology there are relatively backward. Progress, but something went wrong. Who designed and built that bridge?"

A collapsing building would be a disgrace to the designer.

Yin Yiqiao has no doubt that after this incident, those who designed and built the bridge will be too scared to sleep and will be refused cooperation by the entire international community.

"Right now we don't know." He wasn't familiar with Formosa Architects and wasn't interested in hearing about the builders of a collapsed bridge.

"However, it will soon be known."

The rapid rescue capability of the South China Sea Fleet far exceeds the sense of responsibility of the local rescue forces and firefighters on Baodao.

No matter how Baodao brags to the outside world, they have strict discipline and responsibility.

In the face of the facts, they have no room for rebuttal.

However, international public opinion is indeed as chaotic as Yin Zhili said.

Major international news newspapers and TV stations all used "Chinese warships landed on Treasure Island" as a gimmick, wantonly linking today's joint rescue drill with the bridge accident.

Those forced contacts will never say clearly: "The collapse of the bridge was premeditated by the South China Sea Fleet."

They only need to cut out the fact that the South China Sea Fleet rescued people quickly, and selectively report on the South China Sea Fleet's drill. At the same time, the bridge on Baodao collapsed and the fleet landed on the island.

A conspiracy theory can be planted in the hearts of ignorant and fearless audiences.

"I can guarantee that this is not an accident. After all, the bridge made of steel and concrete collapsed."

"A conspiracy, definitely a conspiracy. Now the fleet must have taken over Treasure Island, and in the future Treasure Island will be controlled just like the mainland."

"After watching Wilson's live broadcast, I believe that many people, like me, were shocked by the combat capabilities of Chinese warships. An army like this, not to mention flattening the treasure island, even the ocean-going United States is easy."

Comments on this matter on the Internet are full of worries like a world war.

Some people even boldly speculate that in future history books, there may be a sentence "China ignited the lead of World War III on the grounds of landing on the island for rescue".

There are not a few international students and Chinese who feel angry when watching these discussions.

Obviously, the original live broadcasts of China News Channel and international news media are on the Internet. Why are these anti-intellectual humans who are enemies of China talking like a war is on!

Unreasonable!

The Internet has become a battle between patriots and foreigners.

However, the South China Sea Fleet stood still, completed the rescue, quickly returned to the ship, and even completed the remaining rescue exercises.

Online viewers have had their day with ups and downs.

While watching the forum friends angrily criticize foreign countries, they are talking nonsense and fighting.

While watching the mighty and majestic South China Sea Fleet, they calmly picked up the "workers" who fell into the water.

I am afraid that in this world, only this army has done earth-shattering things and can turn around and return to peace, hiding its achievements and fame.

No matter how the international public opinion clamored, they all completed the drill step by step, and by the way -

"South China Sea Fleet Joint National Rescue Center Maritime Rescue Exercise Press Conference"

Major domestic media flocked to the event.

They all want to know how the South China Sea Fleet will evaluate today's landing on the island, and how they will view the frightened criticism of international public opinion.

At the press conference, representatives of the South China Sea Fleet, the National Rescue Center, and the South China Sea Tunnel Project Team sat in their own seats.

When the news started, the respective responsible persons reported on the results of today's exercise.

The South China Sea Fleet focuses on cooperating with the rescue work of serious accidents in bridges and tunnels in the South China Sea Strait.

The National Rescue Center is responsible for allocating all rescue resources to ensure zero casualties in the South China Sea Tunnel.

The Nanhai Tunnel project team started from the consideration and planning of the drill plan, and talked about the possible construction accidents of this high-profile bridge.

The three spokesmen were experienced in many battles, and their tone was unhurried, without the slightest excitement of having been on the treasure island to rescue disasters.

Their report materials have always revolved around the South China Sea Tunnel, as if the Baodao collapse accident was nothing more than an insignificant episode, not as important as the simulation exercise of this tunnel.

Visible anxiety in the news media.

The South China Sea Tunnel is indeed important, but there are ups and downs in the world, and they urgently need official speeches to fight back, so as to correct all fallacies and rectify China's name.

Finally, the spokesperson of the Nanhai Tunnel Project Team said: "The bridge collapse on Baodao is also part of our emergency plan."

As soon as the words came out, the whole audience was chattering and discussing endlessly.

But the spokesperson ignored their surprise and slowly explained: "The South China Sea Tunnel spans the South China Sea and directly connects to Baodao. Whether it is in the construction process or after the tunnel is completed, the South China Sea Fleet, the National Rescue Center, Li'an Only the full cooperation of various departments in Hong Kong and Taiwan can ensure that today’s tragedy will not happen in this tunnel.”

"In the face of disaster, the interests of the people are above all else."

The calm tone of the press spokesman was like that peaceful rescue.

"The rescue that Baodao can't do, we will do it for it."
