The Red Era: The Crowd in the Siheyuan

Chapter 490 Arrangement of Disaster Relief Mission
Seeing that the neighbors were laughing at him, Liu Haizhong's face turned even darker.

But he also knew that what He Yuzhu said was right. Liu Haizhong knew best what he had done over the years. It was not an exaggeration to say that he was hated by heaven and people.
There must be a lot of collapsed houses in the city now. If he goes out and asks the neighbors to bury them, the murderer will never be found.

As for getting angry with his neighbors, he didn't dare to do that now.
The houses outside collapsed, and the houses in the courtyard collapsed as well. Then, it would not just be him who would be buried, but the whole family might be buried inside.

By then, there will be no evidence and it will be a waste of life.

When He Yuzhu arrived at the middle courtyard, he heard Yi Zhonghai talking about the earthquake shelter. When he saw He Yuzhu coming from the backyard, he gave orders directly.
"Zhu Zi, hurry up and take everyone to build an earthquake shelter. If the weather changes suddenly, many people will catch a cold.
This is no small matter.”

He Yuzhu certainly knew that a great disaster would inevitably be followed by a great epidemic, but the Siheyuan was only a small corner of the city of Beiping, so there was no need for him to interfere too much.

"Uncle Yi, I still have to organize the militia to help with the disaster. You and my dad can watch over the yard.

It's no secret that every household has wood. I know you stole it when you were building the air-raid shelters. Don't hide it, take it all out."

Seeing that He Yuzhu knew about the wood they had taken from the air-raid shelter, the neighbors couldn't keep it a secret.

If He Yuzhu is serious, he will definitely be accused of fleecing the public, and he will be in a dilemma.

"Yes, yes, Zhuzi, don't worry. We will definitely not hide anything. Don't worry."

"Yes, yes, Zhuzi, don't worry. Leave the Siheyuan to us. I guarantee nothing will go wrong."

Seeing the neighbors vying to express their opinions, He Yuzhu didn't say much. He wouldn't really send them to the police station for such a small matter, otherwise, who knows how many people would suffer.

When they arrived at the front yard, they saw everyone standing in the middle of the yard in a daze. Yan Bugui was holding the TV series without saying a word. He Yuzhu could only arrange the matter of the earthquake shelter first before going out.

After this delay, the militiamen from Maoer Hutong, who were close to the area, had already arrived at the gate of the courtyard one after another after being notified by He Yuejin and Xu Wenzhao.
When they saw He Yuzhu coming out, they all greeted him quickly.

"Captain He!"

"Captain He!"

……

He Yuzhu didn't waste time talking to them and gave orders directly.

"It's good that you're here. Come with me now. Let's take over the radio station and make a city-wide broadcast to call on all the militiamen in Beiping to help with the disaster."

"Yes! Captain He."

Then, He Yuzhu looked at He Yuejin and the other man and said,
"Yuejin, go and inform your aunt Hongying and Aunt Zao. Wenzhao, go and inform Director Wang and Director Zhang and ask them to organize disaster relief.
When you are done, go back to help mom and grandpa. Don't run outside unless necessary. Do you hear me?"

"I know, Dad. I promise not to cause you any trouble."

Seeing his son nodded in agreement, He Yuzhu said nothing more and hurriedly went to the radio station with the militiamen.

The reason why He Yuzhu used radio after the disaster was,
It was because wireless communication technology was not well developed at that time. Most of the broadcasting systems in Beijing were still wired broadcasting, that is, fixed loud speakers.
If everyone had a smartphone like in the future, he would have to ask the militia to run and notify them.

After broadcasting the disaster relief broadcast, He Yuzhu first went to see the seriously ill leader, and after getting authorization, he led people to Tiananmen Square to set up a temporary command center.
Not long after,
After hearing the broadcast, the captains of various teams who had arranged for the disaster relief work of the militia in their jurisdiction all came to Tiananmen Square.

Not only the militia, but also the leaders of various departments in Peiping came here after hearing the broadcast.
The committee is no exception.

It's just that those people in the committee are good at destroying things, but if you ask them to build things, they will be at a loss.
So He Yuzhu didn't count on them and directly declared martial law in Beijing.
"Comrades, I will not waste my words with you. I have been authorized by the leadership to be fully responsible for disaster relief work in Peiping during this period, so I declare that Peiping will be temporarily under military control.

Arrange the tasks below.

First, the militias went to the homes of ordinary people to help them build earthquake shelters so that they could have a place to live.

While arranging rescue personnel, they also had to carry weapons and cooperate with the police station comrades to patrol the streets to prevent anyone from taking advantage of the opportunity to cause trouble.

If this happens,

First, they will be warned. If they do not listen to the advice, they will be arrested. If they dare to resist with force, they will be shot on the spot. "

"Yes, Captain He, we will complete the mission resolutely!"

Seeing the militia and public security comrades finish their tasks and leave, He Yuzhu looked at the comrades of the committee.

"Director, this is an extraordinary period. The work of the committee should be suspended for the time being, otherwise it will easily cause misunderstandings."

Several comrades on the committee also knew that He Yuzhu first assigned tasks to the militia and then came to them, and he was not discussing it with them at all.

Although he felt uncomfortable, he had the authorization from above.

No matter how unwilling you are, you have to obey orders.
Otherwise, there would definitely be many people who would be willing to give their workers a round of shots to avenge the humiliation they have suffered over the years.

"Okay, Deputy Director He, we will go and inform the comrades below and ask them to listen to the instructions for a few days. At the same time, they will cooperate with the militia in disaster relief and building earthquake shelters."

Seeing those people on the committee gritting their teeth and agreeing, He Yuzhu no longer cared about them.
Anyway, they are just some grasshoppers in autumn and they can't jump for a few days.

Then, He Yuzhu looked at the comrades from various departments in Peking.
"Someone has already taken care of the disaster relief work, but as the saying goes, after a big disaster there will be a big epidemic.

Comrades in the health department must immediately organize doctors and nurses in the city to set up hospitals in open areas of each urban area in accordance with field combat standards to facilitate the treatment of the injured.

All material supply departments immediately organized disaster relief supplies.

Things like wood, nails, plastic film, and dry straw should be prepared as soon as possible so as not to delay the construction of the earthquake shelter.

There is also the issue of eating.
Tomorrow morning may be a little urgent, but we must ensure that the people can have a hot meal at noon and stabilize their emotions.

Of course, remember to collect food coupons. If you don’t have food coupons, ask the street office to register.

Also, don't hide anything, raise the issue if you encounter it.

If you cause unnecessary casualties among the people, I will not listen to anything you say."

Seeing He Yuzhu's vigorous and resolute style, the comrades in various departments were shocked and their work attitudes, which had become extremely lax over the past 10 years, subconsciously became more restrained.
"Yes, Director He, I will ensure that the task is completed."

Looking at the empty temporary headquarters, Zhou Yiming asked with some concern,
"Captain He, it's a bit inappropriate for you to force them to do their job like this today. After the disaster relief is over, they will definitely cause trouble for you.

It will be difficult to deal with it then.”
