Chapter 172 The conflict escalates (thanks to the leader of Lumia)

In fact, this is not the first riot that has broken out in West Bengal.

As early as May 3, 2021, after the election results were announced in West Bengal, India, large-scale riots and conflicts broke out in the state. The violence was particularly serious in at least 6 regions in the state. The residences of about 100 political staff from both political parties

It was attacked and destroyed. According to the British Broadcasting Corporation, at least 17 people were killed and many others were injured in the conflict. This became the famous May 3 Indian riot conflict.

Fatima, who works in Assam, is well aware of the horror of riots.

In 2019, a large-scale riot occurred in her state that lasted for a week. At that time, the central cabinet government urgently mobilized 50,000 troops to suppress it. The Indian Army's Eastern Command dispatched a total of 36 columns to forcibly quell the riot.

This is also the reason why the Assam government was previously unwilling to let the army intervene in the rescue, because the army and the people themselves had their own faults.

And what's happening now is more than just civil riots and conflicts.

Gu Ji's side has the army, and the local villagers' side has the district government and police. In other words, this riot will escalate into a military-police conflict at any time!

When military-police conflicts break out in any country in history, the consequences are unpredictable.

This is also the reason why Gu Ji immediately took control of Marlowe's gun. You must know that the nerves of the military and police on both sides are highly tense at the moment. Once they hear the sound of gunfire, if they are not careful, it may turn into a full-scale firefight.

When the shuttle sweeps over, at least a dozen of these villagers will be killed or injured, so their responsibility will be huge!

But just standing there without resisting is not the answer.

"Come on! Ah——!"

"Also, Fatima, you should immediately report the riots to the central cabinet and submit the list of all officials involved in the Midnapur district government. The cabinet intelligence system will definitely take action to solve the problem, Colonel Swaraj.

…”

Unexpectedly, as he spoke, the direction of the wind changed again. A district government official fanned the flames behind his back. The villagers' emotions were once again aroused, and the curly-haired young man continued to grab rocks and throw them at them.

Ranat in the purple turban gritted his teeth and reprimanded.

"Great! It's the riot police support from the General Manager's area!"

Gu Ji glanced at the riot police formation and shook his head, "Are you carrying equipment such as water cannons? These few people can't withstand the collision of seven or eight hundred people. Immediately organize a three-level emergency response team from nearby areas.

, all three police forces in nearby areas and remote towns mobilized riot police to concentrate police forces to maintain order. In addition, three fire trucks were mobilized to use water cannons to drive away the villagers!"

How could Gu Ji let this loophole go?

Just when Fatima was surprised to see the support, she did not expect that a single word from the Midnapore District Police would turn the good momentum into something worse.

He first spread his hands to show that he was not threatening, then pressed the loudspeaker button and shouted:

But now Gu Ji just wants to find Swaraj and Marlo.

"You want to use armed suppression? Colonel! Don't do this! It will only make things worse!"

When the last few words were shouted out, many villagers suddenly woke up and reacted. When they looked back, they were the district government officials in suits and leather shoes, holding umbrellas.

"It's the same today. Blowing up the Farakka Dam may affect your residence and farmland, but what will be saved is the lives of nearly 50 million people in the five counties in the downstream area. I know that you may

They will say that the towns downstream have nothing to do with you, and there is no need to pay for strangers."

In the chaos, Gu Ji heard someone calling him. When he turned around, he saw Fatima running over with a middle-aged government official wearing a purple turban, "Vidi, this is the chief secretary of the West Bengal government, La.

Nat is here to coordinate the Farakka Dam blasting plan!"

After a few words, Chief Secretary Ranaut was stunned, because Gu Ji told him all the ideas he was thinking about, and he was more rigorous.

This time, he did not choose to ignore it, but immediately shouted: "Fatima! Light! It's you! That curly-haired man in dark purple clothes, twice, you hit me twice, you don't have to believe me,

But I am standing here without any weapons to discuss with you. Why do you have to attack me? Don’t you know that this is breaking the law? Why do you want to provoke state authority? Are you a vested interest in hindering the plan? Does anyone know anyone?

he?"

"Don't come over yet!"

Suddenly, countless objects fell down, clanking, some fell directly into the water on the ground, some hit the riot shield, and some fell on the front of the car. The hood was smashed one after another, and the windshield was shattered.

There was a loud crash and it shattered into a spider web, with the sharp tip of the stone embedded in the dense cracks.

"A government lobbyist! He only cares about what he says sounds nice. If I really want you to give up your home, are you willing?"

"Look, everyone! This is the face of the central cabinet government! They are stalling for time! At the same time, they want to catch us all! Blow up the dam and destroy our homes! We will fight them!!"

"The riot control brigade of the General Administration District Police Station, form a strong double row with shields, move forward——!!"

Fatima and others were relieved.

There were chaotic sounds of footsteps, shouts, and beatings of sticks.

Hearing Fatima stand up and exclaim, Gu Ji hurriedly stopped and quickly dodged. His strong figure looked like a nimble leopard in the rain, his arms covering his face and neck, and he instantly avoided the falling objects.

Gu Ji calmly took note of the curly-haired young man who hit him. He was not disturbed by the wine bottle at all, but continued to shout calmly:

"Don't be nervous, everyone. I am Vidhi Dali, a disaster management specialist assigned by the central cabinet. We are not here to conflict with you, but to solve the safety hazards of river dams and to protect your lives.

Property is safe!”

The villagers asked me, I asked you, and whispered, and they all said that they had never seen this curly-haired young man.

The first time Gu Ji shouted, several soldiers, including Fatima and Maro, fired their bright flashlights.

Fatima looked back and saw a series of motorcades with flashing red and blue lights.

Gu Ji hurriedly escaped.

After getting along several times, Swaraj and Maro also saw Gu Ji's skills and agreed to let him take temporary command. However, for safety reasons, Maro still asked the soldiers to take a military tactical helmet from their equipment bag.

"Don't be deceived by rumors, drive them away together! Don't blow up the dam!"

"It's the police!"

Although Gu Ji had served as a soldier, he was still a civil servant after all. However, in the face of such a confrontation between the two sides, a highly tense environment, and the attacks of the villagers, he not only did not panic, but he was able to compose such a persuasive idea so calmly.

The language is simply terrifyingly calm, completely unlike what a twenty-seven or eight-year-old can achieve.

The scene that was a tense confrontation just now exploded like a powder keg.

"Yes! Don't be deceived by his sweet words! Drive them out!"

Gu Ji had the experience of being a negotiator in the bomb level, coupled with the experience of delivering the city's emergency speech on behalf of the mayor in the World War II level. Now he can handle large-scale crisis scenes, not to say it is easy, but at least he can command.

Ruoding has a quick mind, and that line came to him from "The Wandering Earth".

The curly-haired young man did not expect that Gu Ji could target him in such a large crowd under the heavy rain. Facing the bright light focused on him and the series of questions, he was unable to answer at all. He was like a mouse at this moment.

, hurriedly trying to get into the cracks among people to hide.

Gu Ji put on his protective gear, carried a waterproof loudspeaker, and walked out from behind the pickup truck.

"I don't know him either."

Perhaps it was Gu Ji's calm and sincere attitude that touched the softness of humanity in the hearts of the villagers.

really.

"Mr. Vidi! When you asked us for riot police support, I already considered that there would be riots, but I didn't expect that such a violent conflict would break out! Damn it!"

"I don't think I've seen this person before. Do you know him?"

Fatima, Swaraj and others felt horrified in their hearts.

Fatima had cooperated with him many times and had already obeyed his orders. She directly called the cabinet secretary.

Actually.

"never seen it……"

If he was really stirred up by his emotions, seven to eight hundred people would pounce on him and hit him with a stick, and he would be crippled even if he didn't die.

"Vidi!"

It turned out to be a wine bottle.

"Don't you understand the truth of the matter? They say that the national cabinet government will only hide behind. Please look back and see who is hiding behind you now!!"

"Don't get excited, everyone. I know you don't want to believe me, but at least believe in the cabinet and the country. The rescue in Assam a few days ago is the best example. I am a personal participant. You can read it in any news online.

We found out that if the country had not taken timely action, an entire train of us might have been drowned by the flood."

At this time, a burst of light came from not far away.

"But there is a saying that says, 'Initially, no one cared about this disaster. It was just a wildfire, a drought, the extinction of a species, and the disappearance of a city, until this disaster was closely related to everyone.' If

One day, when you become a downstream town, will you expect the people upstream to help you?"

Gradually, the expressions of many people became less angry than before, and some old people's arm muscles holding the sticks also relaxed.

"Vidi, you misunderstood. I don't really want to attack civilians. I just send out helicopters to scare them. Otherwise, the force of these riot police officers alone will not be able to stop them for long!"

"Vidi! Vidi!"

As soon as Gu Ji heard that the other party was preparing to dispatch a helicopter despite the risk of a crash in heavy rain, he immediately thought of the two sets of "attack" anti-tank missiles attached to the Mi-171. If they were to be bombed, a large number of innocent villagers would die.

His ultimate mission was also in vain!

"Yes! Don't listen to him. The central cabinet does not understand the local difficulties at all. They will only hide behind the scenes. Only our regional government will care about everyone's livelihood!"

This is the agent hired by the Midnapur District Government, the one who leads the way!
