Chapter 36: Indians also want to fight monsters!
The sonic boom attack of the space monster Godzilla hits a wide area. If humans within a radius of dozens of miles fail to cover their ears in time, the result will be either bleeding from the orifices, incontinence of urine or feces, or both. If you are unfortunately too close to the source of the sound, even if you cover your ears in time, it may not help... Suddenly, the entire Buddhist holy land is filled with a strong smell of blood and stench, and it is tainted like a slaughterhouse...
However, the above-mentioned unsightly scenes cannot offset the attractive temptation of huge amounts of gold. Stimulated by the extremely good news of "the arrival of the golden monster", Indian officials showed amazing efficiency. First, they appointed a Lieutenant General of the Gandhi family took charge of the expedition, and then urgently mobilized two divisions of field troops from various border areas. He also arranged for more than a hundred military aircraft to make an emergency transfer and assemble towards Bodhgaya in Bihar. . Due to insufficient transportation capacity, the officials did not hesitate to impose railway and aviation controls and requisition private vehicles...
During the entire preparation period, countless troubles were caused, especially as many as thirty plane crashes and car collisions, in which hundreds of people died one after another. In addition, many soldiers took the opportunity to blackmail the government to improve their treatment, including at least three curry meals a day. Food must be guaranteed, and we can no longer feed them animal feed and Ganges water every day... But in the end, we allowed a large number of troops to gather in the Bodh Gaya area, and finally it was somewhat like a human army gathering elites to fight monsters.
By the way, during this period, the space monster Godzilla, whom they were facing as if they were facing a formidable enemy, was still stuck in place without moving at all, and was still slowly but firmly continuing to sink. It was still more than thirty meters high when it was exposed to the ground. Yes, after three days there was less than twenty meters left...
——In other words, if the Indian military does not seize the time to take action, they will have to drive an excavator underground to fight monsters.
In addition, thanks to the chaotic news and traffic control in Bihar, even before the army was stationed in large numbers, journalists and idlers from all walks of life had already arrived like a tsunami. Their number was impossible to count. It is said that there were always There are nearly one million people - Bihar has only a land of more than 100,000 square kilometers, but has a population of 100 million, and it is the poorest state in India. As the saying goes, the poor have money and the rich have conscience. . Since the locals are so poor, seeing such a large pile of gold not far away, they are naturally so crazy that they even risk their lives...
As a result, the first batch of Indian military police who hurriedly arrived at the scene of the monster's landing were actually not tasked with fighting the monster. Instead, they set up roadblocks and barbed wire to disperse the poor and untouchables who came to hunt for gold, and to seize those who had already strayed. gold into their hands.
——Obviously, this is a very annoying job, because it ruins the dreams of many poor Indians to get rich...
So, before the battle with the Godzilla monster began, humans themselves began to fight each other. Bodh Gaya, a Buddhist holy land known as a pure place, has been experiencing various armed conflicts for a while. Among them, there are violent suppression by the military and police to disperse the gold diggers, there are also conflicts between different "thug" groups to snatch gold, and there are also military and police from different departments. The robbery and conflicts... It is said that at least thousands of people were killed as a result.
For the Indian lieutenant general who flew a helicopter to command the battle, suppressing these unruly people was just a trivial matter. How to kill the big monster that had fallen into the ground did not seem to be a headache. What really troubled him the most was The problem lies in the relationship between the central and local governments. The dispute over the ownership of the "Golden Monster" - As mentioned before, the local states in India have great power, similar to the states in the United States before the Civil War. The central government in New Delhi, the capital, cannot act vigorously and command them like an arm, so that they can obey orders. Therefore, everything can only be done through discussion as much as possible.
Now this priceless golden beast has fallen on the ground in Bihar, and Bihar is the poorest state in India. It has just suffered heavy losses due to the impact of the monster. How is it possible? Watch helplessly as New Delhi takes away all this windfall without leaving a single hair for you? In fact, after learning that this monster was huge, full of treasures, and not very destructive (it did not move after it was smashed into the soil), the crazy-poor Bihar authorities had already red-eyed and took the monster away. This gold from the stars is yours!
As a result, the central and local governments in India were fiercely fighting over this windfall. The police and militiamen in Bihar started an armed confrontation with the federal army, and it seemed that they were almost on the verge of an accident. And seeing the Indians making such a mess, other countries could not help but gradually become interested.
For example, the government of Bangladesh, which is closest to Bodhgaya, where the incident occurred, and is also very poor, said with a shy face that resisting alien monsters is the common sacred duty of all mankind and is not a matter for India alone. It hopes that India will open its borders and allow The Bangladeshi army also came to help (and make a little money on the way). A US fleet has also left the Diego Garcia Island base in the Indian Ocean and is currently cruising in the Bay of Bengal, seemingly waiting for an opportunity to take advantage of it. There was also a lot of quarrels at the United Nations General Assembly over the measures to deal with this matter... In short, the scene was really a mess. According to the harsh words of international commentators, it was "a disgrace to mankind in front of alien invaders"!
Fortunately, behind this cosmic monster Godzilla created by the "Main God System", there are actually no alien observers with ulterior motives laughing happily, only a few plane travelers near the scene looking embarrassed. It’s just embarrassing...

On the other side, in the Mahabodhi Temple, which has suffered so much, I have not had enough food or sleep for several days in a row (Godzilla has been freezing for three days and has roared incessantly, disturbing my dreams. There is a power outage and no air conditioning in the temple, and there are many mosquitoes. The temperature is 40 degrees Celsius. Wang Qiu and others, who couldn't sleep due to the high temperature and were almost harassed by thugs, finally waited for organizational backup - political commissar Guo who came with the United Nations investigation team as an attaché of the Chinese representative.
After many days, the two parties met each other, naturally they were deeply saddened and had tears in their eyes. After Wang Qiu and the others had finished lamenting all the thrilling encounters, Political Commissar Guo noticed that there seemed to be a missing person on their side, so he asked about the whereabouts of Mr. Chandra Shukla who had entertained them.
"...You mean Chandra? Oh, forget it. This guy rode a donkey and followed him to grab the gold. As a result, he was roared at close range by the monster. His eardrums were ruptured on the spot, and then he was thrown into a ditch by his mount. , broke both legs on the spot, and is still lying in the Red Cross hospital groaning! ”
"...Oh, it's really unfortunate." Political Commissar Guo shook his head, and then talked about the domestic discussion about the "Golden Monster Godzilla Incident", mentioning that some people familiar with the matter believed that the Indians took advantage of it, which was really too great. It's a pity, why not let the monster fall on China's territory? Some people even wanted to take the opportunity to label Wang Qiu and others as traitors - of course, this fallacy was naturally suppressed quickly
"...This is really...sigh...I only saw the thief eating meat, but not the thief being beaten! It hurts to stand and talk! You don't get so many hats, right? What do they think of the monster Godzilla?" ? Big gift package? I didn’t think it would cause any trouble. How much damage!" Wang Qiu rolled his eyes, "... Even the landing itself is already making people sweat! This time, the main god system is cheating and slowing down the monster directly from mid-air. Only after letting him go did nothing serious happen. If this is the case If a cosmic monster of weight and size really falls from the satellite orbit, it will not be like the ground shaking in the Japanese tokusatsu film. Even if it is not to the extent of the asteroid when the dinosaurs became extinct, at least it will be done. It is also equivalent to the Tunguska explosion. Several times the destructive power! If it triggers a volcanic eruption, changes in the earth's crust, etc., it will be enough to redraw the map, or even make a small country disappear from the earth... Normal people can't even hide from this kind of thing, where can they go? Go up? ”
