Crisis Management Game

Gu Gu several people discussed half of it.

Several rescuers wearing blue and black reflective waterproof coats suddenly came up from behind and asked. One of them was the square-faced Indian guy in the rubber boat who was responsible for rescuing him before. He gestured with his eyes to a middle-aged Indian next to him. Man, and Gu Ji also took the initiative to stand up, "I am."

"Hello, I am Pradhan, Director General, Operations Group, National Disaster Relief Force, NDRF."

The middle-aged man had gray curly hair and a beard. Even though he was wearing a loose rescue suit, he could still see that he was extremely muscular. After a brief introduction, he reached out and said, "Just now, when Singer suggested to me to put away the external power machine, , I was wondering when his brain suddenly became so easy to use. After asking, I found out that it was your idea. It just so happened that, under the command of the National Crisis Management Committee and the Ministry of Interior, we need to know some on-site situations from you, is that convenient?"

"convenient."

Gu Ji nodded, he was worried that he would not have a chance to get on the NDRF line.

The National Disaster Relief Force of India is affiliated to the Central Armed Police Force under the Ministry of Home Affairs. This is a very large violent organization. In addition to it, it also includes the Central Reserve Police Force (CRPF), the Border Security Force (BSF), and the Central Industrial Security Force. (CISF), National Security Guard (NSG) and other branches.

The composition of the NDRF is somewhat similar to Xia Guo's National Earthquake Disaster Emergency Rescue Team (known to the outside world as Xia Guo International Rescue Team), which is composed of disaster management experts, Indian military police, fire fighters, and hospital emergency medical care.

Among them, the experts are mainly responsible for coordination, technical guidance and support work, mainly engaged in search, rescue and support work; the military and police firefighting are mainly engaged in search, rescue and support work; the medical staff in the third part have rich experience in emergency medical treatment. During on-the-spot rescue, the three parties are integrated and will exert great power when fighting together. They are also the main force in India's rescue and disaster relief.

The main reason why Gu Ji wanted to hook up with NDRF was mainly to "gain reputation."

Because of the special features of the National Crisis Management Committee, as long as he can win the attention of Operation Director General Pradhan, his strength will naturally be spread to the ears of the committee’s senior officials. On the one hand, it will be convenient to complete new goals and tasks; on the other hand, , also to gain the initiative to save West Bengal next.

So he told the other party almost everything he knew so far.

Although Pradhan already had a general understanding of Gu Ji's abilities from various sources before arriving, when he learned that the heavy rain event had gone from analyzing and predicting, proposing diversion strategies, to protecting the lives of 10,000 people on the train, he still endured it. His pupils couldn't help but dilate, secretly horrified.

It is no exaggeration to say that the Assam disaster relief was entirely led by Gu Ji.

After listening to this, Anurag on the side also raised the corner of his mouth with some satisfaction, as if he was very satisfied with his original vision. If he hadn't forcibly snatched Gu Ji from the hands of the Minister of Agriculture and strongly recommended him, Gu Ji would have been a star. The dazzling new star may be buried.

Pradhan digested the entire process of the disaster and thought about it briefly.

"The train rescue has ended. Since Vidi said that the heavy rainfall will continue for two to three days, our next work focus should be shifted to both sides of the river. How is the current work of the state police and fire rescue teams?"

"Due to limited manpower, the transfer process is relatively slow, with only about 30% completed."

As Disaster Management Minister, Anurag has been paying attention to the rescue progress on both sides.

Assam is a remote area, and the government's financial resources are very limited. It cannot compete with the central cabinet government. It has 400 boats and boats at a glance.

"It's not too late. Let's take action as soon as possible. I will report it to the expert command team and notify the following and the military transport troops to prepare. Vidi, since you have participated in the entire process of this disaster and are very good at emergency response and rescue, Just come with us, it just so happens that I need a few locals to lead the way."

"I can do that too. I have done research on the east bank of the Brahmaputra River before, so I know the situation in nearby towns very well."

Pradhan is also a man of action, but as soon as he finished speaking, Fatima asked to join in.

Anurag hesitated.

It seemed that they were a little worried about the safety of the two of them. After all, Gu Ji and the others had just escaped from the "Death Train" and before they had time to rest, they were immediately going into the next rescue operation.

"The water levels on both sides of the river are still growing wildly due to heavy rains. The environment is extremely complex. How about I contact the Minister of Police. He will come from Dispur soon. He knows the situation there best and can provide you with information. A lot of important information.”

"It's too late, Minister. Time now is as precious as gold. If we delay it any longer, I'm afraid the people won't even have a place to hide!"

But Gu Ji is not a reckless person. After experiencing many checkpoint crises, he certainly understands the importance of information.

Why he was able to save so many people before the flood broke out in the second round was because he relied on the information he collected in the first round!

"But the minister is right. The situation on the river bank is complicated. We really need experienced command from the rescue front line to avoid detours and casualties. So I have a proposal to set up a three-level command structure, that is, shore commanders and formation commanders. and boat commander.”

“The shore-based commander is composed of ministers from the state emergency response command, and is mainly responsible for providing on-site information, action plan suggestions, real-time coordination and communication with the military region’s logistics force, medical rescue, and the Central Crisis Management Committee; the formation commander is composed of General Pradhan The officer serves as the on-site commander responsible for the formation movement, search and rescue, return, etc., and reports the rescue progress to the shore commander in real time, and adjusts the rescue details in a timely manner."

"Finally, there is the boat commander, who can divide the boat formation into several small teams, or can be specific to each rubber rescue boat. He mainly leads the team or the boat to complete the search and rescue, cooperation, emergency response and other tasks designated by the formation command. , In this way, the rescue time will not be delayed, and a large amount of experience command can be provided in a timely manner to the rescue front line."

After Anurag heard this, his eyes suddenly lit up.

Pradan also took a breath of air and stared at Gu Ji's face, looking a bit like looking at a monster.

Gu Ji's plan is equivalent to adding an extra layer between the expert command team and the boat force.

It seems to be more complicated, but it actually solves many pain points.

Because although their expert command team has very rich experience in disaster management, they lack sufficient understanding of the disaster scene environment in Assam. The formulation of many plans requires first contacting the state emergency response headquarters. Not only does it slow down decision-making, but it's also easy to get messed up.

This shore-based commander plays an important role in "connecting the previous and the following", making the entire rescue process smoother.

Even though it is just a simple addition, it requires strong professional rescue technology and experience support. Not to mention that the situation is urgent and it is difficult for ordinary people to calm down and think.

But Gu Ji came up with such a fantastic solution almost without thinking.

Fatima learned on the train that he knew how to rescue by boat, so it was not surprising. In addition, Gu Ji really showed too many special talents along the way. Even if he now said that he was the incarnation of Lord Shiva, she would still be surprised. Wouldn't be surprised.

Soon, the "three-level command structure" plan was unanimously approved by the state government's senior officials and the expert command group, and was even reported to the Central Crisis Management Committee. After all, who among the senior officials of the state government would not like to show their faces in rescues, anyway? You don’t have to risk your life on the front lines, you just need to use your mouth.

As Gu Ji was the main proposer of the plan, he also showed very professional rescue skills.

So Pradhan was specially assigned to the boat unit as the commander of the 14th detachment, and was in charge of 27 kayaks.

After Fatima and Gu Ji changed into water rescue suits, they came to the boating unit to claim their members.

Among them was the square-faced Indian guy named Singh.

Unexpectedly, in just ten minutes, Gu Ji, who was still being rescued just now, would become his "leader" in the blink of an eye.

Gu Ji glanced at everyone in the detachment. Relying on the knowledge bonus of the Flood Rapids Specialization Mark, he quickly had a formation plan in his mind:

"Since the shore command post has not yet been formed and the specific plan orders of the expert command group have not been issued, I will tentatively decide on the formation of our 14th formation. We will use the '3+9' mode and divide the 27 rubber rescue boats into There are 9 teams, each team consists of 3 rubber boats and 9 team members, 3 people per boat, and each team has a team leader, do you understand?"

"Ming, I understand..."

Everyone answered one after another, and only Singer's voice seemed the loudest.

Fatima whispered to the side:

"Vidi, these people don't seem to obey your arrangements."

"It's okay. Once you get to the scene, you'll understand."

Unexpectedly, Gu Ji didn't care. After all, these people can join the Indian National Disaster Relief Force. They are basically the elites of the police and fire fighters in various states. They don't understand their abilities like Pradhan, and they don't have a high regard for his nature. Very normal.

"F-!"

At this time, a sharp whistle sounded, indicating that the troops began to take official action.

Following the instructions of their respective formation commanders, everyone rode in a transport vehicle in groups despite the heavy rain, ran to the equipment storage point, and quickly rushed into the stagnant water pushing the rubber boat and external power engine respectively.

More than a thousand rescue teams were dispatched at the same time, and the scene was quite spectacular.

As it continued to deepen, until the water level reached a certain height, everyone dispersed and boarded the boat one after another, started the power engine, and with the roar of the internal combustion engine, hundreds of orange reflective rescue boats began to draw a line in the flood. The triangular wave heads towards the banks of the Brahmaputra River in the north.

"Three boats in a group! The flood is turbulent. Pay attention to the collision avoidance rules. When traveling in formation, the distance between the boats should be at least 10m to prevent them from colliding or capsizing due to waves!"

Gu Ji took the waterproof loudspeaker issued by the logistics and shouted to the rescue commander of his formation.

The reason why he chose this formation is that he believes that the three-rubber boat model is the most suitable for the current crisis environment. According to the risk level of the water area, the "3+9 plan" is most suitable for high-risk waters such as rolling dams downstream, boiling lines formed by falling water slopes, and tumbling currents. Undertake difficult rescue tasks such as disaster investigation, personnel evacuation, and rescue of people in distress.

The place where the flood spread was not far from the river bank, and the rubber boat was equipped with sufficient power. In about fifteen minutes, the boat team had entered the center of the flood. The rapid water roared like a group of frightened wild horses. Rushing towards the northeast, it is unstoppable.

The surrounding trees were blown to and fro, and the entire wild forest seemed to have turned into a marsh. Based on the surrounding tree canopy, Gu Ji estimated that the current water level was already five meters high, and this had not yet reached the river bank!

One after another, he could also see the state government rescue team retreating from the front.

Gu Ji heard from the exchange of shouts from both parties that the villages and towns around Guwahati had been completely submerged by floods, and only a few taller buildings were still struggling to support them. Fortunately, when the transfer was originally carried out, the first batch of arrangements was for the shore. There were high-risk victims on the border, so there were not many casualties.

Currently, the trapped victims are concentrated in the second batch of towns near the river basin such as Dispur, and the water level has also risen to nearly 78 meters.

About five minutes later.

Gu Ji finally saw the shadow of the town in the telescope, or in other words, it could no longer be called a town, because the roofs of the original small buildings had long turned into small "isolated islands", with a large number of victims crowded together and covered with clothes. Carrying a large piece of waterproof canvas, some people simply carried a wooden basin on their heads, accompanied by roaring sounds, with frightened and uneasy expressions on their faces.

They are as desperate as the victims trapped in the train. They can only watch the water level rising little by little, swallowing up their living space, but they can do nothing.

"The water ahead is turbulent, everyone, pay attention! Let's start assigning tasks..."

As it happened, the shore commander was established, and after communication with the expert team, a specific rescue plan was finally formulated, and Pradhan issued the tasks one by one.

There are three main types of tasks:

First, evacuate and relocate people who are or may be threatened by floods;

The second is to search and rescue missing persons who fell into or were trapped in water;

The third is to rescue people trapped due to secondary disasters such as flash floods, mudslides, and building collapses.

The difficulty of the tasks is exactly in order, from low to high.

Most of the detachments have been assigned task one, which is to evacuate the victims trapped on the roof and take them away from the flood, while being careful not to let anyone fall into the water.

Perhaps seeing that Gu Ji's previous rescue knowledge and skills were not low, Pradhan arranged a second task for him that was neither too difficult nor too difficult.

Compared to the former.

His mission requires him to search for people in relatively "out-of-the-way" places. Not only do these places have to be separated from large groups, but they often also have certain unknown risks. He may have to get off the boat and dive in, in case the building collapses during the search, or If there is an undercurrent, you will be trapped or even capsize.

The really most difficult task was task three of the formation led by Pradhan himself, which was to rescue people from mudslides and landslides. That was really a job done with your head in your belt.

But it's worth mentioning.

In the search and rescue mission assigned to him by Pradhan, two people were highlighted:

The Chief Minister and the Minister of Water Resources!
