Chapter 14 Disaster Relief Commander
Chen Weixiong led his troops to run to Tangshan City. Of course, around every kilometer, Chen Weixiong ordered a cadre to stay here and give orders to each army entering Tangshan in the future, requiring all troops not to care about other matters, first gather at July 1st Square, and then the temporary command center will be uniformly assigned and commanded.
"I tell you, my order is for all the troops that arrived in Tangshan later! No matter what kind of troops it is, no matter how many people it has, or what cadres it leads. Do you understand?" When saying this, Chen Weixiong seemed very murderous. There was no way. If this was not the case, it would be impossible to save lives to the greatest extent in the shortest time.
"Yes!, resolutely execute the order!" Several cadres who were named answered firmly.
At this time, Tangshan City had become a hell on earth. It was an exaggeration to describe Tangshan as ruins. The entire Tangshan had been completely razed to the ground. On the way to the center of Tangshan City, July 1st Square, Chen Weixiong asked the map of Tangshan City from his adviser. He found that according to the instructions of the map, he would pass through the First and Second People's Hospitals of Tangshan City on the way to the First and Second People's Hospitals of Tangshan City.
"First Battalion Commander!"
"Come!" The first battalion commander Xue Dengke, who was running out of breath, soon appeared in front of Chen Weixiong.
"Take your battalion and quickly arrive at the First and Second People's Hospitals, find a way to open the doctor's dormitory, do your best to rescue a group of doctors in the shortest time, and then follow their guidance to dig up the hospital's pharmacy and produce a batch of drugs. Remember, the most important thing is surgical supplies. Pay attention, no matter how many doctors are rescued or how many drugs are robbed, they will be sent to July 1st Square immediately. Did you hear it?" Chen Weixiong guided that every doctor is very precious now. With them, life will have hope.
"Yes!" The first battalion commander stopped without saying nonsense.
"There are all in one battalion! Following my order, the first company and the second company rushed to the First People's Hospital. The instructor led the team to rescue the doctors in the hospital dormitory first, and then snatch out the surgical medicines from the medicine warehouse. No matter how many they snatched out, they will be sent to July 1st Square immediately! Others come with me!" In fact, when Chen Weixiong issued the order just now, the instructor of the first battalion was next to him. Xue Dengke said this just to emphasize Chen Weixiong's order.
When Chen Weixiong and his friends arrived at July 1st Square, it was still dark. There were already many terrifying citizens gathered in the square. Seeing that a troops were coming, many citizens began to pull and twitch, wanting the People's Liberation Army to rescue the people in his place first. Gradually, the originally neat queue was disbanded. When Chen Weixiong discovered the situation, the troops were intensified. In order to quickly change the status quo, Chen Weixiong did not consider marrying more and pulled out his guns.
"Bang, bang, bang." Three gunshots, Chen Weixiong fired. There was no way, he had to quickly control the situation.
"Each battalion, the company commander comes over immediately, the deputy company commander and instructor gather the troops." Chen Weixiong issued an order, and he no longer had the heart to take care of the shooting.
"Captain Wang, are there any staff officers in the regiment from Tangshan City?" Now, Chen Weixiong needs a local person familiar with the situation to be his staff.
"Political Commissar Liang's family belongs to Tangshan City." As soon as Captain Wang finished speaking, Political Commissar Liang came over: "Yes, my family belongs to Tangshan City."
"Okay, we don't have many troops now and need to use them in a concentrated manner. You can see where there are the most residents? It's best to go to the building in detail." Chen Weixiong spread the map to the ground.
At this time, the battalions and company commanders also came to their side.
Chen Weixiong didn't even raise his head and said directly: "Each company reports on the situation of personnel, and the second battalion first company said first."
"Yes! I answered..."
Before the company commander finished speaking, Chen Weixiong interrupted him: "Tell me how many people there are now!" He was a little angry. It was time to go, and he was still so dogmatic. I don't care about how many people there are in your company. I only need to guide you how many people you can give out now.
"I have 92 people in the company." The company commander became smart and gave an answer directly.
"I have 88 people in the company." Needless to say, this is the second company commander.
"I have 89 people in my company."
"I have it..."
Just as each company reported, Political Commissar Liang had already circled several of the most confidential places on the map.
Chen Weixiong looked at the map and issued an order.
"I order. The current situation of the battalion and company is here... and carry out emergency rescue tasks until the command center gives you new orders, and use its best efforts to rescue everyone."
"The current situation of the first battalion and second company arrived..."...
"Do you all know?" Chen Weixiong asked loudly?
"Everything is clear!" Several company commanders answered loudly.
"Okay! I will send you tools soon. Before the tools arrive, you will use your hands to dig and bite them with your teeth, and try to save more people for me. The rescued people will mobilize them to save people with you. If there are any wounded people, send them here immediately. Remember, save them first and save them, and the movement must be fast! Do you understand?"
"I understand!" With clear instructions, the company commanders knew how to save people, and their confidence was more sufficient.
"If you understand, set off immediately. Those who don't know the way find someone to ask and arrive at the scene immediately!" Chen Weixiong's order was quickly executed. After a while, he heard the voices of the staff of each company. Soon, there were not many soldiers left in the square.
"Chief, what are we doing?" asked several battalion commanders and instructors. Seeing so many people affected, they were also very anxious.
"You? You are familiar with the positions of your companies right now. When the tools arrive, even if you carry them on your shoulders, you have to send them to the soldiers below as fast as possible." Chen Weixiong no longer cared about these battalion commanders and instructors, because these people are now lying in front of the map, paying attention to the location of his troops. Now Chen Weixiong regrets it, why didn't he get a few more maps? But he doesn't have time to think about these, because there are more work that he needs to arrange.
"Follow me as the center, the comrades from the Regiment Headquarters and Logistics Department sorted out a vacant space on the right, preparing to receive the wounded. The comrades from the Political Department are now going to me to remove the door panels nearby. They need as much as they want, and mobilize the masses to help you demolish them. It is said that it is to make more people survive!" Chen Weixiong didn't know that his last sentence, after being promoted by the people from the Political Department, quickly became a slogan of Tangshan City and quickly spread throughout the country through the media. Chen Weixiong became famous immediately.
"The Communications Company immediately set up a radio station, contact the Military Commission directly, and inquire about the situation. All surgeons and nurses in the regiment health center will immediately rest on the spot. The internal medicine doctors will now start to rescue the wounded!" Chen Weixiong knew that the wounded who could get here now generally will not be too serious, but once the disaster relief operation begins, more and more wounded people will arrive at July 1st Square one after another. At that time, the doctors will not have time to rest.
"Director Chen, we are not tired. We can start to rescue the wounded now!" A military doctor who was not old in grade spoke. Seeing the wounded everywhere, the young man's eyes were filled with tears.
"I'll let you rest immediately and rest immediately. You are the most important now. How long do you expect you to rest? You just want to rest for a while and you don't have time. You have rested now, and you say that to save more people!" Chen Weixiong almost shouted. He admired the enthusiasm of these doctors, but reason told him that this arrangement was the most effective.
A older military doctor said nothing, but found a cleaner place, took off his shoes, lay down on the ground, pillowed with Jiefang shoes, closed his eyes and started to sleep.
With unified command, efficiency has been greatly improved. When the cadres and soldiers of the regiment headquarters and logistics department sorted out the rescue area, the people from the political department also transported a large number of door panels and bed boards. After a while, the cart responsible for transporting medicines and tools also arrived. Looking at the soldiers' dust and sweat on their faces, Chen Weixiong didn't know how many difficulties they had come here after customer service, but he knew that he had to be careful when running the way he came just now.
But now Chen Weixiong has no time to care about this. He must arrange the subsequent work immediately.
When the first batch of wounded were carried over, it was already dawn, and the doctors and medicines from the two hospitals rescued by the first battalion also arrived at July 1st Square. Chen Weixiong felt much more relieved when he saw the doctors in these places. Although many of them were injured, this did not affect their enthusiasm for disaster relief. Because they knew that they were the first batch of people rescued by organized rescue.
"Dear comrades, I know that many of you still have injuries on their bodies, but you have also seen that this is the situation now. We really need you to help us help the people of Tangshan City. Thank you for your hard work!" Chen Weixiong gave these doctors a salute very seriously.
"Chief, don't say it anymore. We know what we do, and why you first think of saving us. Those who didn't say it were all flesh and blood. We know what to do!" A man who obviously looked like a hospital leader said this excitedly. Then, before Chen Weixiong could say anything, he turned around and said to his colleagues.
"Comrades, do you know why the PLA chose to save us first? It is because we are doctors, we can save more people! We must be worthy of the Party, the people, and the People's Liberation Army that saved us! Don't gather here, immediately divide the subjects and groups, find our own place, and we start working!" In that era, if we want to be a leader, political level was the first priority. Obviously, the person who speaks now has an extraordinary political level, and the words he says are a bit good.
Chen Weixiong, the leader of the group, listened silently to what the hospital leaders said, and his arms raised were never put down. Looking at the people who were ragged clothes, who had just been rescued from the broken walls, quickly turned into doctors who rescued others, giving people the feeling that they were acting in a drama, but this drama was performed in real life.
Chen Weixiong's eyes were a little blurred. He secretly wiped it out and then issued an order when he turned around.
"The battalion commanders and instructors of each battalion will be assigned tools immediately. All medical staff in the regiment will bring first aid kits and necessary medicines, and follow up with the battalion commanders and instructors in groups, distribute the tools to various rescue points, and at the same time, deal with the wounded nearby urgently. Take action now."
The doctors in the group who were resting on the ground just now climbed up and searched for the first aid kits and tools they needed from the middle jeep in the group. During these two hours, these doctors began to understand what priorities mean. They understood that their biggest task now is to use as much of their professional knowledge as possible to rescue more affected people.
At this time, the Communications Department of the regiment had already answered the call from the Military Commission.
"Chief, the call from the Military Commission has been answered. It is the second-ranked leader. The chief asked you to answer the phone." The newsletter is famous and reported.
Chen Weixiong hurriedly ran to the side of the radio station and took the phone call.
"Are you the leader of the 305th Regiment?" A familiar voice came out on the phone. Chen Weixiong heard that this was the voice of Comrade Hua Guofeng.
"Reporting to the head, I am Chen Weixiong, Director of the Direct Engineering Department of the X Army."
"Report the situation in Tangshan!" The leader was also anxious.
"Now the entire Tangshan has been razed to the ground. I brought the 305th Regiment into Tangshan City at 4:15 am. I have divided the 305th Regiment into several extraordinary people. Now we are actively rescuing the masses. The report is completed." Chen Weixiong stood straight and his expression was very excited. At that time, it was a great thing to be able to hear the voice of the Party Central Committee.
"Okay! Good job! Now I tell you that Tangshan is the center of this earthquake. You can take the 305th Regiment to Tangshan so quickly. On behalf of the Party Central Committee, I would like to express my gratitude to you! Now I authorize you to all the troops who come to Tangshan to participate in emergency rescue and disaster relief, and you are responsible for unified command of the militia. Your radio station must always be kept in touch with the central government. I will notify you if there is any change at that time!"
"Yes! Please rest assured, the leader, and ensure that the task is completed!" Chen Weixiong stood even more straight.
"What else do you need now? I'll have someone to arrange it for you right away!"
"The report leader, we now need medical equipment and medicines, mainly surgical medicines, and we also need large machinery. Before these things come, we need a large number of jacks and hacksaws." What Chen Weixiong said was all the contents of his plan. Now it's just a copy.
"Okay, I will prepare it for you soon. Remember, let the soldiers develop their revolutionary spirit of not being afraid of hardship and not being afraid of death, and make more contributions to the rescue of the people of Tangshan City!" Comrade Hua Guofeng explained.
"Yes, I will definitely instruct all the commanders and fighters participating in the war to do as required by the central government!" Chen Weixiong said loudly.
"Okay, that's it!" The phone hung up.
Chen Weixiong tidied up his clothes, turned around and saw that almost everyone was looking at him.
"Comrades, the Party Central Committee just called. Tangshan was the center of this earthquake. The leader asked all our commanders and soldiers to exert their revolutionary spirit of not fearing hardship and not fearing death, and to do their best to help the people of Tangshan! We must do everything we can to save more people!"
Chapter completed!
