The first rebel of the Tang Dynasty

Chapter 2143 The Tranquility Before the Storm

Another day passed and everything was ready.

At this time, the entire state and county became very quiet.

Li Yin got up early, and he also went to the edge of the pier to see the sunset in the distance.

The whole sky is red, and the morning glow exudes charming brilliant colors.

The clouds in the sky are very dense.

The sea was surprisingly calm.

Li Yin looked at everything on the sea.Who knows, in the next day, this place will be a purgatory on earth.

It's going to be like the end of the world here.

Man is still too small in front of nature.

And what he can do is to reduce losses as much as possible.

At this time, the ships in the safe haven are ready.

Li Yin walked some distance away.

There are still some people out there who fortify the shoreline.

These people work very hard.

When they saw Li Yin, they all stopped their work.

Instead, he saluted Li Yin.

"Sir, you are polite!"

"You're polite!" Li Yin followed everyone and saluted.

Everyone was very happy to see Li Yin's arrival.

"How is the situation now? How long are you going to do it?"

Li Yin asked.

Someone replied: "Come on, just strengthen it in the morning."

Someone else said: "In the past, there were big typhoons here, but no one has ever stood up to take the initiative to defend. This time, the gentleman came forward and gave us experience in defending against typhoons in the future!"

In this way, Li Yin has indeed brought experience to the common people.

In the past, how did they know to do these things, but now they know.

This is a good thing.

But it doesn't stop here, and other places will follow the template here in the future.

Data from a certain place reported that one year typhoon disaster losses were the lowest in history, and the number of people affected, the number of deaths and missing persons due to disasters, and direct economic losses dropped by 61%, 95%, and 72% respectively.
It can be said that as long as the defense is in advance, the loss can be reduced by more than [-]%.

Casualties can even be reduced to a minimum.

"In the future, no matter what the disaster is, there will be corresponding defensive measures. When the time comes, I will have someone sort it out, and then publicize it to the whole Tang Dynasty."

There are five major natural disasters in the world, namely earthquakes, tsunamis, floods, typhoons and volcanic eruptions.

Except for earthquakes, the other four can be prepared in advance.

Minor natural disasters are droughts, storms, blizzards, thunderstorms, sandstorms, acid rain, hail, tornadoes, etc. Such disasters are easier to defend against.

But for the common people, they don't know when these disasters will come and how to defend against them.

Therefore, the importance of Shengtang Group has emerged.

If Li Shimin were to do this, he wouldn't be able to do it well, so he could only make up for it afterwards, but he was still in a hurry afterwards.

It would be very tragic if some officials came across and lay down directly.

"Everything you have done for the Great Tang will surely be remembered forever!" someone said.

"We wouldn't have such a good life without sir."

Someone else said.

Indeed, after Li Yin came here, there are a large number of cement houses here, and mud-tile houses are rarely seen.

Cement houses are strong and can withstand huge disasters.

How dare people think about this before.

"Okay, you guys are busy, go back early and wait for the news after you finish your work. The typhoon is estimated to stay for two hours, and the impact may reach a day."

"Yes, sir, then we are busy."

After everyone finished talking, they started working again.

And Li Yin went to the beach.

God knows what will happen next.

This typhoon is too powerful.

That night, the typhoon really came, and huge waves hit the entire state.

Under Li Yin's auspices, no one went out.

Everyone hid in a safe place and waited for the typhoon to pass through.

As soon as the typhoon passes, reconstruction work will begin.

At this time, Li Yin was in the command center, looking at the world outside the glass, the entire sky was covered with dark clouds, and the dark clouds were moving quickly.

There is a depressing and tense atmosphere everywhere.The wind whizzed by like a roaring beast.The bursts of violent wind can be heard endlessly.

All the trees are being ruthlessly shaken by the wind, and the branches and leaves are swaying wildly.Many trees were lifted up by their roots and flew into the air without a trace.

This typhoon seems to swallow everything.

There was continuous noise all around violently, and the whole area was instantly plunged into disaster.

There are no pedestrians on the street.

The streets with blurred vision, wind and rain everywhere, and a large number of UFOs.

Objects flying everywhere were propelled by the typhoon, tumbling endlessly in the air, as if they could not stop.

All the people were terrified, and everyone was praying to the sky that the typhoon would be lighter.

But this time because Li Yin made preparations in advance.

Let everyone feel the strength of Li Yin.

If it weren't for Li Yin, how many people would have been caught in the typhoon right now.

And that's just the wind blowing ahead.

And down, a lot of rain poured down from the sky.

The rainwater seemed to be poured on the ground, splashing water.

Huge amounts of rainwater flooded the area.

After a while puddles and rivers formed.

The stagnant water on the street has gradually spread over the ankles, and even some low-lying places are already as tall as a person.

The river began to rush.

And long ago, the water in these rivers had been emptied. If this was not done, the whole city might turn into a water city when the rain came.

The sound of the howling wind gradually increased, like ghosts crying and wolves howling.

Then the whole roof started to shake,
From time to time, there was the sound of things breaking.

There is no longer a safe perimeter in the entire region.At this time, it is only possible to be safe under a solid concrete house.

In the face of absolute power, human beings can only choose to hide and wait.

The whole city was destroyed in an instant, and the lives of the people were disrupted, but Li Yin persisted and went through this natural test with everyone.

The common people listened to the broadcast about the typhoon through the radio.

The entire city was without electricity, and only the radio worked.

And Li Yin also stepped up publicity.

And appease the hearts of the people.

As long as two hours, this disaster will definitely pass, and then, a lot of efforts will be needed to rebuild.

In the Taiji Palace, Li Shimin asked the officials around him.

"Is Li Yin back yet?"

The official immediately said: "I haven't returned yet, and I'm still guarding there."

"Is there any news from Shengtang Group?"

"There is no news coming back for the time being."

At this time, Concubine Yang suddenly appeared, holding a radio in her hand.

Because everything there has no electricity and the signal is extremely poor, it has become very difficult to broadcast on TV.

Fortunately, there is still a radio.

Li Shimin asked: "What's the matter?"

"Listen, Your Majesty, this is the report from Taizhou."

Only then did Li Shimin listen quietly.

"This station reported that the typhoon has reached level [-], because under the guidance of Mr. Zili, the local area has reinforced the main buildings and cut some trees, which has reduced the damage of the typhoon to a certain extent, but At present, the typhoon has just landed, and the wind is gradually strengthening, and the loss is unknown."

"The common people have now been resettled to a safe place. Here we advocate that everyone should not go out unless necessary, and wait for the typhoon to pass before going out, so as to prevent unnecessary impact on the disaster relief work. Prior to this, Shengtang Group invested a lot Manpower and material resources, as well as the imperial court have also invested a lot of officers, soldiers and financial resources. Next, Mr. Zili will make overall plans to rebuild after the disaster. I hope the people can understand and join in the reconstruction work together."

……

Next, Li Shimin heard something about the loss.

At this time, his brows were tightly wrinkled.

It is an important port of Datang and one of the bases of Shengtang Group.

If there are a lot of losses there, it will be a huge blow to Datang's economy.

So we have to intensify the rebuilding work.

Regarding this point, Li Shimin still attaches great importance to it.

And Li Yin is already on the front line, as an emperor, how can he stop paying attention to it.

In addition, the Shengtang Group is also neutral to the court's broadcast, and it is a very fair report.

Concubine Yang said at this time: "It's still very tense there, why don't we put in more effort? To ease the pressure of reconstruction."

Li Shimin thought for a while and said, "I also have such a plan. I can send more personnel there. Especially the military forces from the counties and counties that are not affected by the disaster. Let the Ministry of Industry and the Ministry of Households participate in it."

The Ministry of Works is mainly responsible for returning to work, while the Ministry of Households can transfer funds for disaster relief.

"Your Majesty is wise, I think that we can encourage the common people to participate together. It means that the common people in the neighboring prefectures and counties will carry out the reconstruction work together."

Concubine Yang said so, and Li Shimin agreed.

"Yes, yes, you are right. This disaster really caught people off guard."

"Your Majesty, Shengtang Group is indeed relatively advanced in resisting disasters. We should establish some cooperation with them." Concubine Yang said again.

"Indeed! I will let all the ministries and Shengtang Group carry out in-depth cooperation on this matter."

Li Shimin said so, he also knew the importance of this matter.

In the future, there will be typhoons not only in this place, but also in other coastal areas.

And not only typhoons, but also other natural disasters need to establish a prevention mechanism and add a rapid reconstruction mechanism.

This is very important.

Then, the whole court moved.

Not only the imperial court reacted quickly, but also many non-governmental personnel began to mobilize donations, and some people spontaneously went to the disaster area to rebuild the disaster area.

The actions of these people are rare and valuable. They don't ask for anything in return, and they want to be a good Tang Dynasty.

……

Regarding these matters, Li Yin, who was in the disaster area at this time, was frowning and watching the disaster ahead.

Obviously, the current disaster is a little bigger than what I imagined.

This kind of typhoon changes rapidly, and sometimes its movements are even more chaotic. It obviously weakens, but when it really comes, it becomes stronger again.

If Li Yin hadn't made a good defense in advance, the loss would only be greater.

It is equivalent to building another area.

Looking at the destroyed area, Li Yin fell into deep thought.

It will take about an hour before the wind dies down.

At this hour, I don't know how much damage will be caused.

Then someone walked in.

"gentlemen."

"what happened?"

"Currently, the typhoon has caused nearly a hundred houses to close down, and nearly a thousand trees in the village have been uprooted. No casualties have been caused so far."

No casualties is the best result. If the property is lost, it needs to be repaired. If people die, there is nothing left.

"Okay, let's test again, then make regional loss statistics, and allocate rescue forces after the typhoon passes."

Li Yin said again.

"Yes!"

Then someone else walked in.

"Sir, currently a thousand helicopters have departed from Chang'an and are expected to arrive in an hour!"

"Very well, next, arrange for them to rescue once the typhoon has passed."

After the typhoon comes, some people will be trapped on isolated islands, and there will be floods around the houses. Many people will be trapped, and helicopter power is the fastest and best way to rescue these people.

What Li Yin dispatched is not limited to these, and a large number of ships will conduct search and rescue at sea.

Everything is fully prepared.

Just wait until the time is up to get in.

Then a lot of news reached Li Yin, and Li Yin began to make further arrangements.

These arrangements are very important.

……

Soon, after an hour, the typhoon moved northward, and because of the obstacles of the mountains, it began to weaken.

It won't be long before it disappears.

However, the damage it has caused is already evident.

After the typhoon, the whole land is like ruins.

This is the power of nature, everything becomes quiet and desolate.

The baptism of the strong wind turned the original world into chaos.

Trees fell and many houses lost their roofs.

The street lamps on the street were also swayed by the blowing.

An entire area was devastated, with houses collapsing, power lines snapped, roads washed out, properties destroyed and fields flooded.

Fortunately, there were no casualties among the people, which is a blessing in misfortune!
After the typhoon, a breath of new life is spreading.With Li Yin's knowledge, people helped each other.

And Li Yin also asked everyone to rescue immediately, although there is still a little wind influence behind, although there will be a lot of rain in the back.

But the biggest threat has disappeared.

As long as there is no wind, there is nothing to worry about.

All rescue forces are fully in place.

People began to rebuild their homes.Construction vehicles are busy transporting building materials, and the roar of reconstruction echoes in the empty streets and alleys.

Under the auspices of Li Yin, everyone carried out the disaster relief work in an orderly manner.All obstacles to rescue work will be removed.

Two days in a row passed.

The entire area is no longer in ruins like before.

Everyone finally had a happy expression on their faces.

And this rescue will cost countless time and wealth.

However, the loss of recovery is even greater.

When the rescue reached the last day, Li Yin left without notifying everyone and returned to Chang'an.

He hadn't slept well for three days in a row, and fell asleep as soon as he returned to the tenement building, and didn't wake up until the next afternoon.
