Chapter 81 When one side is in trouble, all sides will come to its aid!
Finally...finally I can breathe a sigh of relief!
Seeing the reinforcements arriving at the battlefield, Martha, as a foreigner, felt even more moved than the Chinese themselves.
Although she personally participated in this "miracle", who would like such a miracle where one's life is hanging on one's belt? If a superman could suppress this dam in one breath, who would be willing to use their own flesh and blood to build a steel human wall?
Now the reinforcements have arrived, they have brought more people and more supplies. I can finally take a breath and have some time to rest. How can I not want to cry!
Of course, there are people who don't want to cry.
"Damn you, Old Wu. Why are you so slow? You almost killed the entire city of Chang'an. If we can't hold on, and you haven't arrived by then, can you bear the blame? Huh? Huh?"
Li Yuanzhao first breathed a sigh of relief, then grabbed the collar of the middle-aged man in front of him and scolded him angrily, his saliva flying onto the other person's face, obviously he was extremely angry.
"Ahem, Lao Li, didn't I ask someone to explain this to you? We encountered a landslide, so we had no choice but to take a detour..."
"I don't want to hear your explanation! I'm telling you right now, at least it was a lucky day today, and the dam was finally saved without any danger! If half of Chang'an City was destroyed because of your lateness, I would have waited in the underworld for you, my grandson, to come down with me, and strangled you to death once more before I reincarnate! Otherwise, I'll be so uncomfortable walking on the road to the underworld!"
"Hey, hey, hey, Lao Li, it's not such a big grudge, right?"
"Shut up! I haven't finished spraying yet!"
This scene shocked Martha.
Li Yuanzhao obviously looked quite serious, so why was he so harsh now? He was completely different from her impression of him?
Do these two have a bad relationship?
Lin Yan coughed and signaled to Martha with his eyes to just watch the show and not to worry about anything else.
It is always difficult for outsiders to understand this kind of life-and-death friendship between comrades-in-arms.
Li Yuanzhao grabbed Wu Zhenhai by the collar and kept scolding him for more than ten minutes before he stopped. The anger on his face subsided a little, and he looked a little calmer than before.
"I haven't had time to ask, how is your defense zone going?"
Li Yuanzhao frowned and asked, "Aren't you also stationed on other rivers? How come you have time to come here to support? Those rivers are not as deadly as the Orange River, but if there is any danger, we can't afford it! Did you lose your defense zone and come here?"
Wu Zhenhai laughed: "We are so close. When I heard that you needed support, I would rush over here without stopping... Well, okay, I won't tease you anymore. In fact, other brother troops came to support and replace our team's defense area, so our team is on rotation and has time, so we can come to help you."
"Do you have any brother troops to support you?"
Li Yuanzhao was puzzled. "How is it possible? There are only so many troops in Chang'an City. Each troop has its own defense zone today. How can they be randomly switched? You didn't really leave your post without permission, did you?"
Wu Zhenhai cried out in grievance: "How could this be possible? Military orders are as heavy as a mountain. No matter how stupid I am, I can't lose my own defense zone! I won't keep you in suspense. It was the brothers from Ganxi District who came to support me, and that made room for me."
Ganxi District?
Upon hearing this name, Martha was still stunned and didn't understand what was going on, but the spirits of all the Chinese soldiers, including Lin Yan, were lifted!
"Are they the brothers from Ganxi District? Are they here so quickly?"
"Don't they need to garrison there? Bah, my goodness, the rain there is definitely not as heavy as it is here, so if we need to stay, we only need to leave a part of us."
"Oh my goodness, I've been exhausted all day, but finally we have reinforcements. Now there's nothing to worry about."
The atmosphere on the entire embankment suddenly became extremely relaxed.
It seemed as if their determination to die was fake. Although the soldiers were still busy filling the dam and building the dike, they no longer seemed to be worried about any accidents. They looked relaxed and even started talking and laughing. This was another problem for Martha.
"Yan... that Ganxi District, is he very powerful? More powerful than you? Why did you become so relaxed when you heard that Ganxi District came to support you?"
Lin Yan chuckled and explained to Martha:
"Ganxi District is certainly powerful, but not in the way you think. Comrades in every district are great, and there is no distinction between superior and inferior. Under normal circumstances, if you say that the comrades in Ganxi District are more powerful than those in Chang'an District, do you believe that they can turn against each other and engage in head-on PVP on the spot?"
Martha was even more confused: "So what are they doing now..."
"The reinforcements from the Ganxi District have arrived, which means that the rescue forces from other brother war zones have also arrived! After fighting alone yesterday, from now on, Chang'an City will no longer be the only one fighting this natural disaster!"
Martha: “…Ah?”
Lin Yan smiled and said, "If you don't believe me, you can find out by clicking on any Chinese news media. Any one will do. Those reports, pictures, and videos are much more intuitive than what I can say dryly."
news?
What's so interesting about this? It's nothing more than talking about how heavy the rain was in Chang'an yesterday, how much loss of life and property it caused, and official jargon about how the government is doing its best to organize disaster relief.
As a princess of the royal family, Martha is very familiar with this news process! Is there any value in the reports of this kind of media controlled by the government?
Of course, Martha wasn't the only one who had such doubts.
Netizens in the live broadcast room were also confused.
"I went to Gudu and the news only said that China's Chang'an City suffered a torrential rain disaster that has not been seen in a thousand years, and the official departments are doing their best to rescue the disaster. Other than that, it's all garbage information, with no nutritional value."
"I'm watching NNC here. It's reporting on the front page that China's infrastructure is so bad that it was easily destroyed by a rainstorm... Tsk, if I hadn't seen with my own eyes how fierce this rainstorm was, I'm afraid I would have really believed these people's lies."
"The self-media blogger I follow did mention that this rainstorm is indeed enough to break the existing rainfall record of the entire Blue Planet. But I really didn't see any other more valuable information. Where is the report you mentioned?"
Looking at the messages in the live broadcast room, Lin Yan's face turned dark.
Wow, these foreign media really have a traditional skill. They just pick and report what they want, right?
"I said, read the domestic media, don't believe those foreign media."
Martha tilted her head.
Based on her absolute trust in Lin Yan, she chose to click on China's own online media reports.
Then, a news report interface that was completely different from the style of the external website began to flood the screen!
"Love knows no boundaries! Medical teams from more than 30 cities rushed to Chang'an City overnight to provide medical assistance."
"Blood bank in urgent need! Tibetan city residents line up overnight to donate blood to support sister cities!"
"The people's soldiers are here! Troops from many regions have arrived at the center of the disaster area and are fully engaged in disaster relief operations to assist the trapped people in resettlement and relocation."
"A number of emergency food donated by the well-known patriotic enterprise Black Elephant Group arrived at the disaster area yesterday, making an important contribution to solving the food problem of the affected people."
"The leader arrived at the disaster area of Chang'an City early this morning and gave important instructions on disaster relief work."
