National Highway 18

There are more than 30 kilometers away from the city of Yizhou City. This place is completely surrounded by mountains. The National Highway walks along the mountain side, with a cliff on one side and a steep wall on the other. This is the most dangerous section of National Highway No. 18 in Bashu Province.

At this moment, on the side of a slightly wider road, this place has become a temporary construction site. A dozen military tents have been built next to it along the national highway and occupying one side of the national highway. This is the command center for the most advanced earthquake and earthquake relief in the Wenshu earthquake, and the highest-level command center. Because, Premier of the State Council, Comrade Leng Yunfei, Vice Premier, and Comrade Nie Guowei are here at this moment.

In the tent, the Prime Minister's eyes looked a little deep and red, which was obvious that this was a feature of no rest.

At this moment, inside the tent, in the middle, on the long marching table, there is a route map of the Yizhou section of National Highway No. 18.

Next to it, an officer with the rank of general was reporting to Premier Leng: "Chief, according to satellite remote sensing data tests, the rest of National Highway 18 has been cleared at present, and only the ten kilometers of the distance between them is left. According to the budget of the engineering force, at least ten hours will be needed."

As soon as he heard this news, Leng Yunfei's face changed suddenly. The general who reported to him immediately said: "Chief, the most important difficulty is that the construction range is too narrow. It is difficult for construction machinery to get in."

Mr. Leng's face looked a little ugly. Since he arrived in Bashu, General Shen Jiantao, the commander of the Tianfu Military Region, Mr. Leng said in a deep voice: "Try every means to go in. The sooner you go in, the earlier you make an appointment, one second earlier, the more life you may save."

As he said that, Mr. Leng stood up and looked at Shen Jiantao with a solemn expression. He said in a deep voice: "Ten hours, this is absolutely not possible. The work surface is too narrow. You can take the measures. I only have one result for any means or any price. Within three hours, I will draw a passage and open up the lifeline of Yizhou City. It is the people who raised you. Now, the people have suffered a huge disaster, so you can do it yourself."

Speaking of this, Shen Jiantao knew very well that he had issued a death order. Then, he nodded with his feet and said, "Prime Minister, please rest assured that the Tianfu Military Region will be up and down. He will do whatever he wants and make sure that this lifeline will be opened within three hours."

After Shen Jiantao went out, Nie Guowei came up next to him and whispered: "Prime Minister, go to bed first. From yesterday afternoon to now, you have not had a rest for nearly forty hours..."

Mr. Leng waved his hand and sighed, "Old Nie, don't say what you mean. I understand. However, at this time, it is not the time to rest. We still know nothing about the situation in the severely affected areas. Judging from the situation reported by Zhenbang, at present, Yizhou City has no power and water cut off, food and medicine are lacking, and large-scale engineering equipment and rescue forces are lacking, so I can't sleep."

Since I learned the news, President Leng boarded the plane and arrived in Bashu, he has not gone to bed. During the day and at night, President Leng inspected various disaster areas, talked to the local people, and calmed the emotions of the people. At night, President Leng convened meetings from all parties to discuss and deploy disaster relief work. It has been more than 40 hours, and even young people can't stand it, let alone an old man in his seventies.

At this moment, in another tent, the commander of the Tianfu Military Region was convening a meeting of military chief officers from various troops under the military region.

Shen Jiantao's face was quite serious, looking around everyone, and said in a deep voice: "Comrades, just now, the Prime Minister has given the final order to die. We must open the traffic line within three hours. For this reason, I issued a military order to the Prime Minister to ensure that the task is completed within three hours. Here, I would like to emphasize again that those present, whether they are generals or soldiers, tell everyone. If they open the passage, it means victory. I will remember you for me!"

After the words came to an end, the military chief of staff and Lieutenant General Ye Jianshe said, "Commander, the problem now is that the work cannot be carried out. We are also clever women who can't cook without rice."

Shen Jiantao waved his hand and said in a deep voice: "The work surface is narrow, this is not a reason. I will send my order. If the work surface is not enough, I will smash the work. Ten kilometers of roads are constructed in sections along the way, and construction machinery and equipment with strong off-road capabilities are rushed in. On-site placement measures are taken for the excavated earth and stones, along the slope protection on the roadside, or on the edge of the cliff. In short, no matter what method you use, what I want is the result. I remember it, within three hours, I will draw a passageway."

Three hours passed in a flash. When the pointer of time pointed to eight o'clock in the evening, finally, on National Highway 18, the soldiers of the Hetianfu Military Region Engineering Corps, who were repairing the highway in Yizhou City, successfully met. Deafening applause and cheers broke out.

...

Yizhou City.

At this moment, the electricity in Yizhou City had completely stopped, and the power supply and transmission lines were completely destroyed in this earthquake. At night, the entire Yizhou was in a darkness.

At this time, a full 32 hours had passed since the earthquake occurred. At this moment, the Prime Minister entered the epicenter of the Wenshu earthquake.

Nie Zhenbang, who received the news, was now leading the surviving leading cadres of Yizhou City to wait at the Yizhou Square.

In the square, there was silent. The people who had experienced a major disaster were sitting on the ground or standing, and their eyes were all looking at the Prime Minister.

At this moment, except for more than a dozen diesel generators roaring, there was no other sound.

Premier Leng's face looked very solemn and sad. Looking at Nie Zhenbang, President Leng stretched out his hand and said in a deep voice: "Comrade Nie Zhenbang, thank you for your hard work. On behalf of the Central Committee, I would like to thank you for your efforts and for not being afraid of sacrifice. How is the resettlement of the affected people?"

After speaking, Nie Zhenbang said, "Prime Minister, at present, the surviving people in the urban area of ​​Yizhou have been placed in the Yizhou Citizen Square, Yizhou Sports Center, and the playgrounds of several colleges and universities and high schools. The people's emotions are still stable, but now there are many problems, such as food and drinking water, and there are a large number of lack of medicines, medical devices and equipment, and medical staff. This is the most fundamental problem. Many seriously injured people cannot get effective treatment due to the limitations of medical conditions."

Mr. Leng nodded, looked around the people in the square, and said in his usual peaceful voice: "Comrades, fellow villagers of Yizhou City, I am Leng Yunfei. I am here to visit everyone. On behalf of the Party Central Committee, the Government Council, and General Manager Shen, I express my deep condolences and cordial condolences to the disasters that everyone has endured. If the house collapses, we can still repair it again. As long as people live and people live, there is hope. As long as we are united, I believe that we will be able to overcome the difficulties and overcome this major natural disaster."

Next, under the leadership of Nie Zhenbang, General Leng and his party came to the medical district again. Nie Zhenbang introduced: "Prime Minister, at present, 80% of the houses in Yizhou urban area have been turned into rubble and ruins. Now, many people are injured. We have set up medical tents on the square and the stadium. Now, the diesel generators concentrated in the city are given priority for medical units. The current difficulties are that the rescue engineering equipment and machinery are seriously insufficient and food and water are lacking. In the past two days, most of the people have not eaten much, and in a few days, I am worried that there will be big problems."

Listening to Nie Zhenbang's report, President Leng's face suddenly sank. Turning his head, President Leng said to Su Jue, Secretary of the Bashu Provincial Party Committee behind him: "Comrade Su Jue, now, be sure to organize manpower and transportation forces immediately to transport food, water and medicines urgently needed in the disaster area. The roads in the entire Bashu Province and the whole province will be given priority to disaster relief vehicles. For trucks transporting materials, police cars must be guaranteed to lead the way. Be sure to transport materials as quickly as possible."

Next, the group walked to the resettlement site of the victims in the square. Here were several tents built with colorful strips. The entire tent was filled with half-aged children, the oldest, no more than twelve years old, the youngest, and the hungry children.

The group entered the tent, and several female policemen in police uniforms stood up. Nie Zhenbang introduced: "Prime Minister, these children are separated from their parents during the earthquake, or their parents and relatives have already died in the earthquake. Now, the conditions are limited, so they are temporarily concentrated here."

Hearing this sentence, Mr. Leng's eyes were filled with tears. He walked forward. Mr. Leng had already squatted down and hugged a child, a girl, and a boy, both of whom were about eight to ten years old.

Both of these children have been sure to have lost their relatives. From the initial confusion and helplessness to the present, these children have been silent in sorrow.

Looking at the child, Mr. Leng stretched out his hand, gently wiped the child's tears, and whispered: "Child, don't cry. The government will take care of you, your life and your studies. Although you have no parents, in this society, there will be more people who care about you and help you. We must all be strong."

He stood up, but Mr. Leng still hugged his two children tightly, looked up at the people around him, especially to Nie Zhenbang, "You must do a good job in psychological comforting orphans in the disaster area, and have detailed plans and plans. For children of separated parents, you must try your best to help them reunite. For those who have relatives, you must also do a good job in corresponding work. For orphans, you must give out 120% of love to ensure that the lives and learning of these children are not affected." (To be continued.
