Datang: My father is the head bodyguard

Chapter 323 Ganzhou Earthquake

For half an hour, Yuchi Baoqi's lion's head flipped up and down until it became a dog's head, while Li Shimin's lion's tail was leisurely and motionless.

Finally, amidst the boos, Yuchi Baoqi and Li Shimin's temporary lion dance show finally came to an end.

Li Shimin was fine. As soon as Yuchi Baoqi took off his lion head and lion dance costume backstage, he was sweating.

Wang De was almost dying of anxiety, and Wei Tong and the officials nearby were also very anxious.

Wei Tong walked over quickly and helped Yuchi Baoqi put the lion's head beside him: "There is an earthquake in Gan, Yong, and Liang, news just arrived."

Yuchi Baoqi didn't have time to feel tired, so he grabbed the telegram and read it, frowning for a moment.

"Come on, Wei Tong will come with us. Wang De and the remaining officials will find Empress Changsun and the eldest princess and take them to the Governor's Mansion, as fast as possible!"

Yuchi Baoqi sweated too much and was a little exhausted, so he didn't care anymore and directly bought two blue bottles from the system and rushed to the governor's house.

Wei Tong called to Yuchi Baoqi: "The British Lord is going this way. There are too many people on the street and the horses can't run. There is a path here."

What else could they say? Yuchi Baoqi and Li Shimin quickly turned around and followed Wei Tong down the path, led the horses through, and then rode to the Governor's Mansion.

Yuchi Baoqi passed by Baoli Trading Company's shop and shouted inside: "Take the telegraph machine to the Governor's Mansion!"

Regardless of whether they heard it or not, Yuchi Baoqi flicked his horse's reins and followed Wei Tong and Li Shimin galloping towards the Governor's Mansion.

The officials in charge of the telegraph machine in the Governor's Mansion were already too busy at the moment. Telegrams came one after another like rain from the sky.

When the officials saw Wei Tong, Li Shimin and Yuchi Baoqi, they were relieved. "Mom, I don't have to die from overwork today. I have a backbone."

Li Shimin picked up the translated message and read it. Li Chengqian did a good job in supervising the country. He convened ministers immediately to discuss relief matters. The first batch of supplies was already being loaded on trucks and ready to be sent to the disaster-stricken areas.

After a while, the steward of Baoli Trading Company came over with a team of clerks carrying the telegraph machine. After quickly installing it, they stood by and stood by.

"Master, there was a disaster telegram sent from Ganzhou, but when we contacted and reported it again, there was no response. Probably..."

Yuchi Baoqi stretched out his hand to stop the steward and said: "The signal is interrupted. All we can do now is to do our best to rescue. It is useless to talk more."

Yuchi Baoqi began to use this telegraph machine to distribute instructions: "All commercial bank managers within a straight line distance of [-] kilometers from Ganzhou quickly inventory supplies and gather manpower to carry out disaster relief operations in the disaster-stricken areas. First-hand information on the disaster-stricken areas must be sent back!"

"Except for those in the Rakshasa Kingdom, all the troops of the Mighty Heavenly Army should be dispatched. There is no need to leave anyone to guard Zhuangzi. They should set off immediately."

"The Hanhai Protectorate is responsible for notifying all the Tianwei Army of the Rakshasa Kingdom, including the commander-in-chief Yuchi Jingde, to take a ride to provide disaster relief."

"The Western Region Construction Corps has entered a wartime situation and overproduced all military and civilian supplies. Regardless of all costs and difficulties, it has produced disaster relief supplies and sent them to the disaster areas."

Li Shimin's telegraph machine was also crackling and sparks were popping up: "Fang Qiao! Allocate money! If you don't have any money, go to the bank to get it for me! Fundraising in Chang'an! Be sure to send out the first batch of supplies overnight!"

Li Shimin turned to look at Yuchi Baoqi: "Are you going to send troops there?"

Yuchi Baoqi almost wrote nonsense on his face: "Except for cooking utensils and other essential items for marching, I will not bring any other armor or weapons. We will strive to reach the disaster area as quickly as possible!"

Officials from the Railway Department entered the room without any announcement: "Your Majesty, British Prime Minister. The emergency train is ready and can leave at any time."

Yuchi Baoqi pointed to the manager of Baoli Trading Company: "Go and load all the strategic reserves that Qizhou City can use into the trucks. Send someone from the Railway Department to follow you, and you have to be fast!"

Li Lizhi and Queen Changsun also arrived. Wang De had already told them about the matter. Li Lizhi was anxious to return to Chang'an and go to the academy to mobilize students who knew how to provide disaster relief to go to the disaster-stricken area.

Yuchi Baoqi asked Li Shimin to go to Baoli Trading Company after handling the court affairs, and he would wait for him there.

Yuchi Baoqi arrived at Baoli Trading Company and copied a Zhuangzi-made car directly from the system in the unloading area in front of the warehouse. The system charged a copy fee of [-] points.

Five barrels of gasoline come with the car and are placed in the trunk. Yuchi Baoqi started the car and drove directly to the Governor's Mansion. Li Shimin happened to leave the Governor's Mansion and go to Baoli Trading Company to find him.

"Where did the car come from?"

Yuchi Baoqi waved to him: "It's just a coincidence that it arrived in the past two days. The two of us will drive back to Chang'an to take charge of the overall situation. The queen mother and Li Zhi will follow the train back."

Li Lizhi didn't care about that and just opened the door and got into the car. Empress Changsun did the same and sat directly in the back seat.

Yuchi Baoqi didn't say much: "You have to fasten your seat belts in the back seat too, and drive fast this time."

Nearly a thousand kilometers, fortunately, we were driving at night and there were no people on the road. Yuchi Baoqi kept honking his horn all the way, scaring away the wild animals along the road. He stepped on the accelerator until his toes were stuffed into the gas tank.

The fuel gauge of the inline eight-cylinder engine showed a visible drop. Empress Changsun and Li Shimin were a little afraid of such a fast speed at first, but they got used to it later.

After staying up all night driving and being exhausted from the lion dance, Yuchi Baoqi gradually became unable to do what he wanted. Li Lizhi quickly called out to Yuchi Baoqi to stop: "Stop the car and let me drive."

Yuchi Baoqi also listened to the advice and stopped quickly. Empress Changsun also moved to the front row. Yuchi Baoqi lay directly on Li Shimin's knees.

"Call me when it's time. I'll take a moment."

Li Shimin gently patted Yuchi Baoqi's chest with his hand to comfort Yuchi Baoqi, while he looked out the window and wondered what he was thinking.

Yuchi Baoqi quickly fell into sleep. In his dream, he returned to modern times. The time was about noon and almost afternoon, and the sun was very dazzling.

This is a quiet street with few people on the road, probably because it is too hot. In the dream, he seemed to have no physical body and could move around at will.

Yuchi Baoqi walked into a school and found that most of the students and teachers were taking a lunch break. In each class, there seemed to be only two or three boys who usually liked to fight and were whispering.

Just when Yuchi Baoqi was confused, the ground shook violently, the buildings shook like jelly pudding, and many houses collapsed and shattered.

Suddenly, the peaceful afternoon was torn apart by screams, the sound of houses collapsing, and unknown huge noises.

Yuchi Baoqi wanted to rush into the school class to save people, but when he touched the student's body, he passed right through.

He is just an insignificant observer and there is nothing he can do about it.
