Chapter 735: Arrest! Fight the flood! Neutral!
Cao Dongfang didn’t know whether Europe would go to war or not, he only knew that he had to lead the army to provide disaster relief.
The floods in the south were caused by heavy rains.
Because we knew that Cao Dongfang had a certain ability to provide disaster relief, and the army also needed disaster relief, heavy rains began to fall in mid-June.
The water levels of several major rivers are rising, and according to weather experts, floods are inevitable.
Especially in the six southern provinces, the affected area will be very large.
Under the leadership of Cao Dongfang, 80,000 soldiers began to fight against the disaster and provide disaster relief.
Cao Dongfang traveled between several provinces, absorbing water from the rising rivers and injecting it into the sea or the rivers in the north where there is less water.
It goes back and forth like this, except for returning home once every seven days, it is constantly absorbing water to lower the water level.
Eighty thousand soldiers were also deployed to various locations to reinforce the river embankments.
Cao Dongfang's efforts have been very effective. At least there have been no major floods or dam breaches in various places.
By mid-July, the houses and fields of the local people had been saved.
Cao Dongfang took advantage of the occasional light rain to go to Europe to cause trouble, which was even bigger than flood control.
If they fight, as long as we plan well, this war will be of great benefit to us.
Cao Dongfang didn’t know whether there was such a flood control incident in history, he only knew that it was really fucking tiring.
Not to mention the soldiers, I myself was very tired. Running back and forth every day was not something a human could do.
By the end of July, with the strong help of Cao Dongfang, the water levels of various rivers were basically under control and rainfall was decreasing.
The expected floods did not occur, and these provinces and cities survived the floods, with all kinds of losses minimized.
Everyone was very happy because the whole country knew about it thanks to the reporters' reports.
The credit goes to these soldiers, and few people know the role of Cao Dongfang.
It’s just that when a meteorological expert thinks the water level is not right, there is a small question to ask.
The people involved just laughed and said, "I don't know. I only know that the flood water has receded and there will be no flood. Our soldiers have made great contributions."
I said to myself, 'I know why? I won't tell you!'
In early August, Cao Dongfang returned to Beijing and started working in the ministry and an inspection bureau.
The Inspection Bureau started arresting people, and there are three major supervisory departments, not just to purify the air.
There is still money to be made.
Everyone has a portion of the stolen money, and it is not allowed to prevent people from receiving it or donating it on the spot.
You must take it away openly, and no one cares what you do in private. This is also the rule, and everyone is no exception.
There are a lot of people this time, more than 20,000 people can be arrested across the country, and 13,000 people have handed in the stolen goods.
Don't do it again.
With so many people, it is estimated that the review can be completed by the end of the year.
......
While Cao Dongfang is busy, the Russians and the Americans are not idle either.
The Russians and the Americans will definitely go to war sooner or later. Cao Dongfang just doesn't say much in the department. He just likes everyone else, looking forward to watching the fun.
The idea is good, but the Russians and the Americans are not stupid. Both sides hope that my country will join them to fight against the other side.
Envoys from various countries have come to our country one after another, but the relationship with Russia is not good. The two sides only have diplomatic relations at the level of chargé d'affaires, and the consul has frequently made appointments to meet with our senior officials.
Because the United States has established diplomatic relations with Western countries, ambassadors from various countries visit every now and then.
We have repeatedly emphasized to all countries that we will only engage in economic development and will not help any party fight a war!
We will not change because of any party. All countries have seen this and we will not join any party.
They were a little worried, but more relieved.
The number of talented people coming to see our senior management has decreased, which makes me feel a little more reassured about our country.
There are still some precautions, but Cao Dongfang did not take it seriously. However, many reporters asked us to hold a press conference to clarify our position.
Everyone understands what it means.
After the disaster relief, Cao Dongfang held a press conference on behalf of the country.
The theme is that our country is engaged in economic development and will not join any war.
This is a commitment made by our government to the world.
Several major countries in the world are relieved, it seems that my country will really not participate in the war. Only the Russian bear is still a little worried.
It’s just that ordinary people in the country don’t seem to agree, and think that our country should send troops to beat them.
The army beat the hairy bear, cut off its five limbs, and chopped off its paws to steam and eat.
The Eagle Sauce Navy has captured it, and we're going to keep the eagle for fun, kill the rooster for meat, use the cows to plow the fields, and keep Hans the cat from Mark as a pet.
The common people of our country have suddenly become warmongers. Cao Dongfang and his people are too "conservative".
It's impossible to do that.
Our country is not strong enough and cannot even be a neutral country. Many people do not understand this.
......
While fighting the flood, Cao Dongfang took the time to sow discord among the Eastern and Western forces in the country of the Third Brother!
After coming back, we simply used the human flesh fireworks, a specialty of our country, to see the effect.
If one is not enough, try three. One will always be enough.
At that wall, Cao Dongfang also started to make trouble. If an Easterner ran to the West, it would be considered illegal immigration, which was not allowed. The sentries would shoot.
If the Mao Bear sentries open fire, let the Western troops fire back. Many wars are started at the front.
Rather than the orders of the rear government.
Cao Dongfang also used spies from both sides in various countries to do things such as assassinating important figures of the other side and attacking valuable targets of the enemy.
Cao Dongfang basically did everything in the beginning, but now spies from both sides do it and he just watches.
Cao Dongfang understood that both sides wanted to fight a war.
From the restraint of both sides before April to the large-scale espionage operations in August.
Without the consent of the top leaders, Cao Dongfang would never believe it.
The most important thing is that Western countries have begun preparing for war, and another 33 people from the United States have entered Europe.
The freighter also provided large-scale military aid to Western Europe, including twenty tactical mushrooms.
The Eagles' national debt has increased, shipbuilding is accelerating, and their military factories are also producing arms on a large scale.
The sky over Europe was filled with smoke, and the war was about to break out.

"The disaster relief work in the East has been completed. It's not easy to invite you for tea. Let's go. Han Yan, Ma Hua and Minister Lu are all here!" Ma Kangri said in the car.
"I'm a bit busy. I don't want to do it. I just came back two days ago. Let's go!"
The teahouse that Ma Kangri mentioned was not far away. It was a converted courtyard house with only eight rooms, six of which were used to receive guests.
There were quite a lot of people on that Sunday in early August. There were guests in all six houses. The three Ma Huas were also in one house, drinking tea and waiting for Cao Dongfang.
"Han Yan, long time no see! Hello, Ma Hua, Lu Fang!" Cao Dongfang walked into the room and saw the three of them.
"Cao Dongfang, it's not easy to see you. If it weren't for Ma Hua inviting me to have tea, I wouldn't be able to see you!"
"I've been a little busy at work this year, so I don't have much to do on weekdays. It's been 25 years since we last met, and you've become more beautiful and have a good life. Congratulations!" Cao Dongfang said with a smile.
"You haven't changed much since you were in junior high school!"
"Everyone sit down and chat while drinking tea!" "What kind of tea does Dongfang drink?" Lu Fang asked a few people.
"West Lake Longjing!" Cao Dongfang replied.
Ma Hua, "Dongfang, is the flood serious this time? The army has been dispatched. The TV said that the river embankment has been saved and the flood has receded. You have been at the scene for more than a month!"
"The water is very strong, mainly because of the heavy rainfall. It is normal to have floods with heavy rain for more than ten days. It is the same with the five days of heavy rain we have had!"
"It should be quite a big deal. The army has dispatched 8 people. This is quite a big move!" Lu Fang knew about this.
Cao Dongfang, "How is Lu Fang doing in the Development and Reform Commission in the past six months? Is your work going well?"
"There are more things to do and less time to go out. There are too many documents, all of which are planned projects from various places, waiting for approval and money!"
“So you review, everyone looks at it, the power is decentralized, there are people in each region, you don’t have to take care of too much yourself, and there are also financial matters, it’s not that you get money just by approving.
Major projects are approved quickly, and other things depend on mood. It is different from the Ministry of Construction. Han Yan, you are still in the industrial park, responsible for a few!
"The industrial park is under the jurisdiction of our department. It's good to be a deputy director or a director. Just do your job well.
The children are grown up, and life is going well. I am not a very ambitious person, not as good as you and Lu Fang. "Han Yan smiled.
Ma Hua, "It's OK for a woman to be just fine. Dongfang was forced to be a minister by the country, and Lu Fang was forced to be a minister by his family. It's best to live a happy life!"
Han Yan, "Cao Dongfang, the country forced you to be a minister. I really didn't know that!"
"It's not forced, they just wanted me to be the deputy minister, not to be in charge of anything, just to deal with national security. I agreed, and then the old marshal forced me to be the minister!"
“That’s how it is!”
