Chapter 2 The sea water at an altitude of 10,000 meters
"But please believe that the Party and the government will never abandon every one of its people. We will do our best to minimize the losses. According to scientists' predictions, after the collision, a series of tsunamis and earthquakes will be triggered. Therefore, all coastal people must withdraw more than 200 kilometers. Now a large number of People's Liberation Army have been going to various cities to organize evacuation. Please do not panic, and must obey management and evacuate in an orderly manner. At the same time, I declare that the whole country has entered an emergency combat readiness. If someone takes the opportunity to loot, plunder other people's property or other criminal acts, the police and the military have the right to solve the problem on the spot -"
Just two days before the order was issued, a coastal defense force near the coastal county had received an emergency notice, requiring 90% of the officers and soldiers to set out to assist the police in coastal counties and surrounding areas to carry out secret missions, and the remaining troops must quickly evacuate the defense zone within two days.
The People's Liberation Army Major General and Commander of the Coastal Coastal Defense Force Zhou Xingguo's brows have been locked in the past two days. His troops have been practicing maritime counterattacks and rapid military responses over the years. However, they did not expect that all of these would be useless and his troops would be evacuated. Today, he already knows the causes and consequences. Just as the information obtained in the early stage, the asteroid is indeed about to hit the earth.
"Ah! Natural disaster! Humans have been practicing self-confrontation, and seem to have forgotten other enemies besides humans, but what should come will always come." Zhou Xingguo muttered to himself.
"Report to the Commander! The 611 Regiment, the 612 Regiment has arrived at the designated location and is assisting the local police in carrying out their mission. The Chief of Staff asked me to ask you whether other troops will evacuate the military zone now."
"Tell the Chief of Staff to let him lead all the officers and soldiers to evacuate first. I will stay the last. I will evacuate after the people of the coastal counties evacuate."
"this------"
"Go quickly and tell the Chief of Staff that this is an order."
"Yes!" The correspondent soldier has a standard attentive posture.
When the announcement was issued, Meng Fan was still chatting with several colleagues in the factory. The divorced old fried dough stick Ma Anshan smiled and made Mingzhu joke: "Mingzhu, you don't have a boyfriend yet! It's the end of the world, why are you still so guarding? You should know what it feels like to be a woman. I will help you with it if I want you to say so." Mingzhu's cheeks flushed.
"Go and go, I won't look for someone like you if I want to find one. Who doesn't know that Mingzhu and Meng Fan are a pair!" Wu Hainan couldn't stand it anymore.
If we talk about the relationship between Meng Fan and Mingzhu, it is indeed closer to others, but it has never been confirmed. Meng Fan feels that Mingzhu is always close to him, but what about him? His parents are outside the city and he rents a house in the city. Therefore, the conditions for marriage are not mature, so he did not confess his love to Mingzhu.
Mingzhu looked at Meng Fan with a blushing face. Meng Fan was about to speak when Emperor Zhou called: "Meng Fan, have you evacuated?"
"What are you going to withdraw?" Meng Fan was a little confused.
"What, don't you know yet, aren't you watching TV? The government has issued an announcement. What I told you last time will happen in 45 hours. All coastal residents have to withdraw 200 kilometers. My father also sent military vehicles to pick me up."
"What?" Meng Fan was stunned for a moment.
When Meng Fan and others walked on the street, the street was already crowded with people, and the roadside was full of policemen and soldiers with guns and ammunition. Military trucks were unconditionally picking up and dropping off residents, but the items they brought were strictly controlled. Only one box was allowed for one person. Later, only one person was allowed to get on the car and all the luggage had to be discarded.
The streets were getting more and more chaotic, and more and more people were driving wildly. Car accidents occurred from time to time, and traffic jams were severely congested on the highway. Later, people who disobeyed management and created chaos were shot on the spot, and the order was temporarily stabilized.
Meng Fan hurriedly turned on his phone and found that he had turned off at some point. It must have been an hour ago that he had received the phone from Zhou Tianzi and then ran out of battery! He hurriedly found a backup battery to replace it. As soon as the phone was turned on, he saw n missed calls, all of which were called by his parents from other places. It seemed that they already knew what to announce, so they were very anxious. Meng Fan's hometown is Zaozhuang, Shandong, and because of school, he chose to find a job in another place.
He immediately called home: "Hey! Dad, don't worry, I'm already on the way to the mainland, yes! Yes! Mom! Don't worry about me, I'm with many friends, yes! We will take care of each other, yes! You and Dad must pay attention to your health and wait for me to go back to find you. Okay, goodbye Mom and Dad, well, Dad--I really miss you very much, goodbye!" On the other end of the phone, Meng Fan's parents took turns to compete for the phone. Meng Fan's tears had already flowed down as he spoke. Now that it's so messy outside, he is actually not sure that he can withdraw in time. He was thinking in his heart: "Mom and Dad, Xiao Fan loves you, I will definitely live hard."
Meng Fan, Wu Hainan, Mingzhu and others made an appointment to evacuate together, and there was a way to take care of him. Meng Fan quickly ran back to his nest and packed up the things at home. There were many memorable things in the rental house, and Meng Fan was reluctant to throw them away. He hesitated for a moment and couldn't help laughing at himself: life might be gone, and there are still things outside. He packed some of them and ate and drank. Fortunately, he prepared a lot of these things in the past two days. He took two more pieces of clothes and put them in a big bag, and rode an electric bike to the agreed place.
The traffic was very congested. Meng Fan rode an electric bike faster than a car. He soon arrived at the agreed location and saw Wu Hainan's father waiting with a bitter face. It turned out that his car was hit by a rushing BMW. "Let's get off the car and walk, bring only food and water, and throw away the rest of the things." Meng Fan suggested.
A group of dozen people embarked on the road to the west. Seeing that the expressway had been blocked by the military and the military did not allow cars to pass. Everyone had to board the bus and military trucks temporarily mobilized by the government to go west. If anyone had any objection, then go find the soldiers' guns to reason!
There are many people who are reluctant to evacuate, and some staff are persuading them, but some people are very stubborn and do not believe that there is such a powerful natural disaster.
The car blocked in front of the highway intersection was pushed directly into the ditch by soldiers with bulldozers, including various famous sports cars. "Oh my god! My baby car." A man in his thirties shouted in pain, but he did not dare to go forward to argue, because just now, a person who blocked the road and refused to get off the car was corrected.
"Zhou Emperor, Emperor," Meng Fan suddenly saw a familiar figure in the crowd. It turned out that the military vehicle that picked up Emperor Zhou had broken down, and he was unable to evacuate safely before the army blocked the road.
"Meng Fan, it's really you. I thought I was dazzled!" Emperor Zhou said excitedly: "Come on, you guys go with me!"
With the help of Emperor Zhou, Meng Fan and others successfully boarded the military chariot going west.
There were only ten hours left before the impact time, and a military defense zone along the coast seemed empty, and the officers and soldiers had almost retreated.
"Commander Zhou, let's go quickly! If you don't leave, it will be too late!" Guardian Xiao Sun said anxiously.
"I heard that when there were still many people in the coastal city before they evacuated, the municipal party secretary and mayor fled in a helicopter."
"It seems like this is happening!" Xiao Sun Mo said brittlely.
"Such a person should be arrested and shot!" Zhou Xingguo said hatefully.
"Commander Zhou, I just called and asked. Your son is already on the way west, but it is not easy to get there. Should I send a helicopter to pick him up?"
"No, this cannot be done. Helicopters should be used in places where it is most needed. So many children of the people are huddled together to escape. Why is my son not good? He has grown up, and I believe he has the ability to protect himself." He did not expect that his words would save his son's life.
Zhou Xingguo was a stubborn person. He insisted on leaving on a special plane with the people from the scientific research and testing team after the impact occurred.
Meng Fan fell asleep in the bumpy military vehicle. Since he got the exact news, he lived in tension and confusion like everyone else, and he was as tired as everyone else.
Suddenly there was a huge vibration on the ground, and the car suddenly stopped. Someone shouted, "The landslide in front." In fact, it was not a landslide. It was the vibration just now that the stones on the mountain rolled down. A military vehicle in front was smashed into the cliff on the side on the spot.
At this time, someone brought a miniature mobile phone to release the official news: the asteroid slows down when entering the Earth's atmosphere and splits out several small meteorites, which will hit different places on the Earth's surface.
It turned out that the moment of the collision had already arrived. The people in exile still didn't understand what this meant to them.
Meng Fan and Emperor Zhou both got out of the car, and saw dawn, dazzling meteors passing by.
"So beautiful!" Mingzhu praised.
Meng Fan and Emperor Zhou were both silent. No one knew whether this was the last beauty.
The plane of the scientific research and testing team was flying on the way to evacuate to Beijing, and Zhou Xingguo was also on the plane. The people in the testing team were discussing the possible impact of the huge vibration that occurred ten hours ago on the earth.
Suddenly, the aircraft radar tested and something was approaching rapidly in the upper right corner of the plane. "What is that?" Dr. Li, a climate expert who was accompanying him, came over.
The size of unknown objects is amazingly large. "Is it sea water?" Dr. Li suddenly said something very shocking.
"Doctor, what are you kidding? Although we are not very high, we are nearly 10,000 meters long. How could there be sea water?"
"Of course there wouldn't be there before." Dr. Li shook his head and said, "But it's not necessarily the case now. For example, if you throw a stone into a basin of water, water will always splash out from the basin. If this basin of water is the Pacific Ocean and this stone is an asteroid, how terrifying would that drop of water be."
Everyone was so shocked that they couldn't speak.
In order to avoid the sea water, the plane quickly pulled up to the left, and suddenly an object hit the right wing of the plane violently, and it turned out to be a shark frozen into ice.
