Chapter 1780 Wildfire
Kangaroo Country, located in the ocean, occupies a large island with rich products and a suitable climate.
With a relatively small population, it is also a place with unique advantages.
With the help of the economic development of the ancient Eastern country, Kangaroo Country, which sells raw materials at a high price, has always lived a good life. It was not until the whole world fell into an economic crisis that it gradually showed signs of decline and exposed various contradictions that had been hidden.
A few months ago, wildfires suddenly broke out in Kangaroo Country.
For Kangaroo Country, which is vast and rich in resources, it is normal to have wildfires.
It would be strange if there were no wildfires in a certain year.
At the beginning, no one thought it was a big deal, whether it was ordinary people or local officials, or even netizens who were watching the excitement around them.
Until the wildfires burned and burned, from one side of the mountain to the other side of the mountain, from the beginning of this month to the end of another month, the thick fog of the wildfires covered the sky and spread to the city, the flames turned into a sea of fire, and even swept through the towns close to the mountains and forests, cutting off the traffic on the road.
As the wildfires in Kangaroo Country killed people, it became a hot topic.
Everyone finally realized that the wildfires in Kangaroo Country had become so big without them noticing! The wildfires spread all over Kangaroo Country.
It even caused many forces to issue travel warnings!
Under the pressure of public opinion, the officials of Kangaroo Country naturally had to jump out to perform various performances, and they said with tears that they would definitely put out the wildfires and give the Kangaroo people a clear sky.
However, as the firefighting professionals of Kangaroo Country were invited, they were stunned to find that the firefighting system in Kangaroo Country had long been eaten away by termites, and the remaining forces could not even stop the fire from spreading. Although the slogans of those bigwigs were loud, they still couldn't do it when they had to pay real money.
The experts all blamed the others, and the chief commander of Kangaroo Country decided to leave the wildfire-affected area and go on vacation elsewhere... Oh, no, it was to calmly think about the solution.
After a long time without a solution, the top leaders of Kangaroo Country seemed to hope that the wildfires would suddenly go out, so that this embarrassing scene would pass quickly.
They even used their clever little brains to attract the attention of their own people by saying that the air quality in other regions was worse.
But this time, the wildfires did not give face to the Kangaroo Country officials.
After burning for four months, the fire did not decrease, but became bigger and bigger, and even caused more and more chain problems.
Countless native wild animals in Kangaroo Country, including the rare koala, were roasted alive, and several rare animals may even become extinct.
Conservative estimates put the number of dead animals at more than 500 million.
The miserable conditions of the animals were uploaded to the Internet, igniting people's emotions.
In addition, a satellite cloud map was uploaded, and the fire situation all over Kangaroo Country could be clearly seen from space.
So, public opinion came again.
The Kangaroo Country officials had to respond urgently again, and then made a decision to shoot and kill a large number of camels to make up for the ecological balance caused by the loss of too many other wild animals.
…………
A new wildfire area in Kangaroo Country.
Thousands of firefighters are fighting on the front line.
To be honest, they tried very hard, but it was too late when they took action.
Firefighting materials were also in short supply.
Moreover, the number of professional firefighters was very small, often accounting for no more than 10%.
However, the higher-level officials were still wasting time in wrangling, and no one was willing to dig out food from their own bowls. It took several months to discuss the dispatch of troops to assist in the rescue, and then the funding was deadlocked again.
As a result, the reputation of the top leaders of Kangaroo Country plummeted among firefighters and disaster areas.
Cursing the chief commander has become a mantra for volunteers.
However, it is worth noting that.
The wildfires in Kangaroo Country are not all natural disasters, but also man-made disasters.
As wildfires swept Kangaroo Country, the number of arsonists for various reasons gradually increased.
According to the accounts of those who were captured, some people just thought that the wildfires on TV were cool, and they could suspend school when wildfires came, so they ran to the mountains to set fires, hoping that wildfires would also hit them.
The wildfire that the firefighters were putting out was caused by arson.
"There are too many eucalyptus trees in the nearby koala reserve, and the fire can catch fire at any time..."
"The koalas over there are probably finished."
"Alas!"
The black-faced firefighter stood on the bare hilltop, looking at the sea of fire in the distance, and said bitterly:
"Tell the volunteers not to go over..."
The firefighter just reminded his teammates next to him, and suddenly his body shook, but he found that the wind suddenly changed.
The wildfire fog swept towards them like a tsunami.
"Shit!"
The firefighter cursed inwardly, picked up the walkie-talkie and shouted quickly.
If they were all professionals, he would not worry about how big a problem such a sudden change in wind direction would be.
But as the fire grew, the majority of firefighters were volunteer firefighters.
These people only earn 20 kangaroo coins per hour.
And their quality is often just that price.
Most of the firefighters who died in Kangaroo Country during this period were these people.
"It can't be put out. It can't be put out here!"
The firefighters who were evacuating all lowered their heads. Some of them had tears in their eyes and waved their fists weakly.
Others thought of the fireworks festival that was about to be held in the capital, and they couldn't help showing angry expressions.
It can be said that the fireworks festival that was about to be held in Kangaroo Country at this moment, in contrast, really hit the morale of these front-line personnel.
"Ahem!"
"If you ask me, if you can find clues that point out that the wildfire is related to the extraordinary, the higher-ups will definitely take it seriously immediately and provide continuous support."
Someone sat in an open space and shouted loudly.
In fact, this speculation has been around for a long time.
It's just that the Kangaroo Country officials didn't just follow the crowd. They wouldn't be fooled without evidence.
Suddenly, the satellite phone of the leading firefighter received the voice of the commander in the rear.
"What's wrong, is the support here?"
"What?"
"You... you're not kidding!"
Listening to the content on the satellite phone.
The firefighter showed a wonderful and exaggerated expression on his face.
However, the fire command department of Kangaroo Country, which was in a state of panic, suddenly received a call from the Commander's Mansion, informing them.
This terrible wildfire was actually related to a mysterious incident.
Some cultists seemed to have deliberately set the fire, but in fact they were trying to use the right time and place, and the resentment of innocent creatures to lift the evil seal!
Now the extraordinary forces have discovered the strange traces here and come to deal with it.
When the firefighter heard this, he opened his mouth and wanted to say something, but he couldn't speak.
However, he knew that it involved cultists and evil seals.
Those arsonists will be miserable this time.
Even if they are minors, hehe, the abnormal incident investigation department will not pay attention to those things that are worthless.
And the officials dare not shirk responsibility anymore, but I am afraid that they will immediately rush to take the lead in the fire situation in order to clear their suspicion, right?
