Chapter 0520 Violence with violence
More than a thousand years ago, the royal family of the Dragon Ting Empire announced their abdication and established the Longting Republic under the persuasion of the first generation of the President of the Censorate. Since then, the national strength of the Longting Republic has gradually become stronger. After so many years, the Republic has become the most powerful country in the world. None of them, it is the most powerful country. All the original territorial disputes have been resolved, especially in the past three hundred years, whether in national strength or military, the Longting Republic has reached the world's first place. Even in the face of the entire Western Empire Alliance, the Republic can still be invincible. If there were no Longting Era, the disaster in 2008, the Longting Republic might still be as strong as ever!
However, it was the spring of this year that a sudden plague pushed the Republic into a desperate situation.
In April 2008, in a small town south of Xishu Province, Longting Republic, a little boy named Nie Loach suffered a high fever one night and was sent to the town hospital by his parents. However, only three hours after he was sent to the district, the little boy had a high fever and lost his life. Almost when the boy was sent to the hospital, more and more people were in a fever and coma in the town. When the boy passed away, at least more than a hundred people were sent to the hospital. However, at this time, even the nurses and doctors in the hospital felt uncomfortable.
The local government reported it as soon as possible, and the government also sent your doctor and the army to rescue him as soon as possible. However, when the members of the government department arrived, the disease had spread all over the place. Not only in this small town, but also in hundreds of kilometers, there were constant reports of fever and hospitalization. The number of people was increasing, and the epidemic was getting worse. In just three days, this extraneous high fever disease had spread to Nanyun City.
This is also the largest city in the south of Western Shu Province. It is a city with a population of hundreds. The serious situation is beyond everyone's imagination. The Republican government sent a large number of experts, scholars, doctors, and nurses to the epidemic-stricken areas, and even sent a large number of troops to block various channels. All people in the disaster area were isolated. No one knew that this disaster would be so sudden, let alone that the spread of the disaster would be so serious.
More and more people are dead and more and more people are infected. On the fifth day of the outbreak, some people in a subordinate county in Nanyun City riots under the instigation of those who are interested in their lives and have been trying to break through the defense line of the army. Such violent conflicts have given the great test of the Republic's soldiers. If you don't shoot, you should suppress them. These people may break through the blockade line with the virus and bring the epidemic to the people behind them. But if you shoot, you should suppress them, these people are all citizens of the Republic. They are soldiers of the Republic, so how can they shoot at their own citizens?
At first, the commander of the army asked soldiers to use tear gas, anesthesia bombs and other weapons to stop the people of these riots. However, as the epidemic became more and more serious, more and more people joined the riots, especially when a large-scale epidemic infection occurred in Nanyun City, more people joined the riots and wanted to rush through the army's defense line and reach a safe area. As he had no choice, the army fired the first shot, and a tragic but helpless suppression kicked off.
Just the day after the army fired at these mobs who tried to break through the defense, some people with ulterior motives began to accuse the bloody and brutality of the Republican government, began to accuse the government of incompetence, and began to flash anti-government. More and more people joined the march, and even many people in the country who did not know the truth also launched the march.
On the third day of the anti-government march, Miaojiang, which had always been in harmony with the government, completely declared independence. The contemporary Gu King even sent a large number of witch doctors to spread to various regions of Miaojiang to help the people of Miaojiang resist this epidemic. Such incidents completely shocked the whole world.
Miaojiang and Western Shu Province are close to each other, and even some areas of Western Shu Province are affiliated with Miaojiang. Over the years, due to Miaojiang's regional relations and some special reasons, the government has had very little influence on it. However, when thinking of the powerful military and the direct control of Miaojiang's food, no one expected that Miaojiang would directly declare independence.
This is simply forcing the government to use force against the entire Miaojiang River.
However, the Republic's government cannot really use force against Miao Xinjiang at this time. With the Republic's military force, if it wants to destroy Miao Xinjiang, it only needs to send an air force to bomb for dozens of hours. However, those people of the Republic are after all. If it is not necessary, who would be willing to bear such a stigma and issue an order to attack?
As for letting the army enter Miaojiang to suppress it, not to mention that it is difficult to march on a large scale in Miaojiang, the Gu masters in Miaojiang are enough to wipe out an army. Gu technique is the most unpredictable thing. This is also the reason why the Republic has always tolerated Miaojiang. A Gu master may completely lose its combat effectiveness, let alone Miaojiang is the place where all Gu masters come from. How many Gu masters are there in Miaojiang? This is a question that no one can answer. Letting the Republic's soldiers enter Miaojiang with complex terrain is simply a death sentence.
No general understands giving such an order easily.
However, Miaojiang must not be allowed to continue in chaos like this. Miaojiang has been the territory of the Republic since ancient times, and no one is allowed to be independent. The Republican government immediately held an emergency meeting to discuss how to deal with the Miaojiang incident. In just one hour, several sets of countermeasures against Miaojiang independence have been planned, including the control of the epidemic.
The entire republic was operating at the first time, and a large number of troops went to the Miaojiang area. Their primary task was not to attack Miaojiang, but to blockade and block all routes from Miaojiang to the territory. It would never allow anyone with the epidemic to enter the territory at this critical moment, causing greater panic.
Now, even if there is no evidence, the top government officials agree that the time of this plague is inseparable from the Gu masters in Miaojiang.
The entire Miaojiang is adjacent to Western Shu Province, which has become the most popular province. At the same time, due to the plague, ordinary people in Western Shu Province are also panic. Many people have begun to prepare for how to leave and take refuge. Of course, more people can only pray and pray that such patients suffering from the epidemic will not appear locally.
However, sometimes the sky is still eyeless. Just half a month after the outbreak of the epidemic, a patient suffering from an epidemic situation appeared in a hospital in Huadu, the most prosperous city in Xishu Province. In just two hours, the patient passed away and did not give the doctor time to rescue him. Fortunately, the news was blocked as soon as possible, otherwise I still don’t know how much chaos it caused.
But it’s okay to have one or two. When the students of a class in Huadu No. 3 Middle School collectively had a fever, this matter could no longer be hidden. The people of Huadu were in panic. Some people with ulterior motives also began to spread rumors everywhere, saying that the government would quickly block the road to the outside world of Huadu and prevent them from leaving, etc. The Huadu government immediately sent all police officers to arrest the spreaders. Not only the police stations, the Censorate, and the army stationed in Huadu, they also sent some soldiers to assist the police in arresting the spreaders.
However, the power of rumors is terrible. Once this spark is ignited, it is easy to start a prairie fire. In just one day, hundreds of violent conflicts have occurred in Huadu. Some smashed shops, some took the opportunity to rape women, and some even directly waved their weapons to attack the police. The huge Huadu was about to fall into great turmoil.
At this time, Miao Xu, who had already known about these things, was standing in the lobby of the Qingyue Association headquarters with a gloomy face. When he came here just now, he happened to meet several men who took advantage of the chaos to rape a mother and daughter in the street. The girl was only eleven or twelve years old. The angry Miao Xu personally killed the beasts who took the opportunity to cause trouble on the spot. However, such things have been happening in every corner of Huadu for a while. With the strength of the government, it is impossible to completely avoid it. After all, most of the soldiers stationed in Huadu have been transferred to the front line.
Looking at Mo Yufei, Li Zhengdong and others in front of him, Miao Xu made his first voice after the incident: "Go, send all the brothers in the city to help the government maintain order, kill anyone who dares to spread rumors in public, kill anyone who dares to create chaos in public, kill anyone who dares to take the opportunity to rape women, kill anyone who dares to destroy order!"
Hearing Miao Xu's solemn voice, several big men who had just been promoted opened their eyes widened. One of them was more courageous and plucked up the courage to speak: "Will this be a little too cruel?"
"When using heavy dictionaries in troubled times, the government needs a reputation. Let's do things that are inconvenient to them..." Miao Xu's voice was surprisingly cold. The boss shivered immediately and never dared to say a word again...
With the attack of the Qingyue Association gang members, many rumor makers were killed as soon as possible, and many people who took the opportunity to rob, rape, and other chaos were cut into pieces by members of the Qingyue Association.
Huadu, who was about to fall into great turmoil, was pulled back by Miao Xu with the most iron and violent means. Although this also caused deeper fear among ordinary people, in general, the chaos was stopped.
After all, it is impossible for the police to kill people at will, and it is impossible for the police to understand the various places in Huadu like these gang members living at the bottom. They always have too many inconveniences in doing things, which also creates opportunities for those reactionaries who create chaos. Only when the evil spirits of the Qingyue Society were born can the uneasy elements be completely suppressed.
This may be what is called violence against violence...
