Chapter 320 The Tragic Scene of Hongqi Village

When the county leaders heard about this, they skipped the meeting and the Party Secretary personally led a large group of people over.

Just kidding, if the 'escape' story is true, all of them will probably be taken away for investigation tomorrow.

Although supplies are still scarce, it is nothing like the great famine four years ago.

If a large number of people really starve to death, then the leaders of Yuanhua County will have reached the end of their term.

Guo Hong, the Party Secretary of Yuanhua County, was extremely anxious.

When Guo Weiguo received the news this morning, his heart sank.

Although Yuanhua County is just a small county, there are many people in the area who want to oust him as the Party Secretary.

Since taking office three years ago, he has been wary of many people.

However, unexpectedly, he was dealt a heavy blow at this moment.

Guo Weiguo wasn't the only one who was anxious; the other leaders were too.

If this matter is not handled properly, their names will likely be featured in the People's Daily.

If the People's Daily really notices them, they're finished.

Given that such a major incident occurred during his tenure, regardless of the cause, the leadership team at the top will certainly not escape responsibility.

As a result, the meeting scheduled for the morning was postponed.

Guo Weiguo and his group, along with several police officers, headed directly towards Hongqi Village.

Because they had to look after their belongings, the elderly, women, and children in Hongqi Village dared not sleep at all, and sat directly on the ground, watching the people around them warily.

After the wolves came down the mountain in the morning, the villagers of Hongqi Village were covered in dust and their clothes were tattered and in a sorry state.

When Guo Weiguo and his group arrived, this was the scene they saw.

Everyone gasped.

Even a few years ago when we didn't have enough to eat, I've never seen someone dressed so shabbily.

The police officers who followed also looked at each other in bewilderment.

They were just about to have lunch when they received a message from Guo Weiguo and other leaders of Yuanhua County asking the county's public security bureau to send a few people to protect them!
Yes, it's about protection.

Although there weren't many villagers from Hongqi Village gathered outside the city, and they all looked quite weak, they were still worried about something unexpected happening, so they brought a few police officers with them.

Besides, if anything really happens, the county public security bureau can help resolve it.

With the protection of several police officers, Guo Weiguo and his companions were not afraid at all and walked directly to the villagers of Hongqi Village.

Upon seeing Guo Weiguo and his group, who were dressed smartly, and several other people who were clearly dressed as police officers, the villagers of Hongqi Village all looked bewildered.

Yang Taohua, who was closest to Chen Xiuting in the village, held her newborn grandson and looked at the Zhongshan suits worn by Guo Weiguo and the others who were leading the group. She began to ponder.

She had seen leaders dressed like this before.

Those who can get along with Chen Xiuting are either smart or kind-hearted.

And the starfruit flower possesses both of these qualities.

After confirming in her mind that Guo Hongjun and others were leaders, she directly pulled Aunt Niu, who was standing next to her, and walked towards Guo Hongjun.

Unlike Yang Taohua, Aunt Niu was not clever. When she saw Guo Hongjun and his group, who were dressed so well, her first reaction was to avoid them.

Therefore, when Yang Taohua pulled her, Aunt Niu shrank back and hid.

"What are you doing? Didn't you see their outfits? We can't afford to mess with them!"

Yang Taohua rolled her eyes and said irritably.

"Auntie Niu, when did you become such a coward!"

Aunt Niu glared at Yang Taohua, but didn't say anything in rebuttal. Clearly, she also felt she had backed down a bit.

However, Guo Weiguo and his group realized they couldn't afford to mess with them. Even though Aunt Niu admitted she was a coward, she didn't want to provoke them. Seeing that Aunt Niu was unmovable, Yang Taohua still explained in a low voice, somewhat annoyed.

“We haven’t done anything wrong, so what are we afraid of? Besides, those guys look like county leaders. With such a big thing happening in our village, we have to talk to the leaders about it.”

Aunt Niu understood what Yang Taohua meant, but she still hesitated.

"Didn't the captain already report this matter?"

Yang Taohua was so exasperated by Aunt Niu's cowardly attitude that she laughed.

“The brigade leader has reported it, but it will probably take several days for the leaders to receive the news. Do we dare to go back to the village to spend the night now? If you don’t think about yourself, you should at least think about your son and your grandchildren.”

Thinking of her son who had been bitten by wolves and her grandson who was still hungry, even Aunt Niu's hardened heart softened.

Yang Taohua's words hit Aunt Niu's sore spot.

With a determined look, without Yang Taohua pulling her along, Aunt Niu wiped her saliva directly on her face and rushed towards Guo Weiguo and the others.

Aunt Niu finally understood. Yang Taohua wanted her to play the victim in front of the leaders.

Thinking of the terrible state of her home, Aunt Niu gritted her teeth and did it!
So, Aunt Niu rushed towards Guo Weiguo with tears (and saliva) streaming down her face and wrinkles all over her cheeks, wailing loudly.

"Leaders, you must save our Hongqi Village! Our village is in such a terrible state. All the men are in the hospital, and the elderly, children, and women are too afraid to go back. You must do us a favor!"

The quiet atmosphere was broken by Aunt Niu's wailing, which immediately attracted the attention of many people.

Guo Weiguo and the others, who had clearly heard what Aunt Niu said, felt a chill run down their spines.

All the men in the village are in the hospital!
I dare not go back to the village!
Just hearing those two sentences, Guo Weiguo and his companions sensed that things were not going well.

There are some clever people in Hongqi Village too.

Seeing Aunt Niu like this, several other women also started to cry and complain.

Although the villagers of Hongqi Village were trying to elicit sympathy, they were genuinely in a terrible situation. The thought of their husbands being injured and their fear of returning home brought tears to their eyes.

When the children saw the adults like this, they started to cry too.

In an instant, the mournful cries seemed to pierce the clouds.

Some passersby stopped to watch.

If it weren't workday, there would definitely be a lot of people gathered here.

Seeing this, Guo Weiguo and his companions became even more panicked.

Several county leaders, no longer maintaining their composure, hurriedly stepped forward to inquire about the specific situation.

Half an hour later, they finally figured out what had happened.

It turns out that Hongqi Village was attacked by a pack of wolves. The men in the village were all bitten by wolves while trying to protect their families, and they are all currently in the county hospital.

The women, the elderly, and the children, fearing the wolves would come down the mountain again, dared not return. So they gathered here with their belongings.

After learning the cause of the matter, Guo Weiguo finally felt relieved.

Thankfully, it wasn't a natural disaster or a robbery.

Even so, Guo Weiguo took this matter very seriously.

After all, this was an entire village that had been driven away by wild wolves.

He looked at the police officers who had followed him and said.

"Please report this to your superiors and have them take a few people to Hongqi Village to check on the situation as soon as possible."

Then, Guo Weiguo looked at one of the young men following him and said.

"Xiao Song, contact the nearest military unit now, explain the situation, and ask them to help send some soldiers over."
