On July 28, 1976, at 3:42:53.8 a.m., 118.2 degrees east longitude and 39.6 degrees north latitude -- Tangshan City, Hebei Province, China, thunder and thunder were shining and shaking in the sky.

It was as if 400 Hiroshima atomic bombs exploded violently in the earth's crust 16 kilometers above the ground, and then the entire land of North China was violently shaken, from Harbin City in the north, to Bengbu in Anhui Province and Qingjiang in Jiangsu Province in the south, to Dengkou in Inner Mongolia and Wuzhong in Ningxia in the west, and to the islands of Bohai Bay and the border in Northeast China in the east. And powerful seismic waves have long been transmitted throughout the earth at speeds and in ways that people cannot feel.

The city of Tangshan was in ruins in just 23 seconds. The sky is roaring, the earth is roaring, the earth is tearing open its unfathomable mouth, devouring the life of the spirit of all things, and at such a time, everyone knows about the earthquake!

Those Tangshan citizens who have participated in the training in Lengkou are happy, they have lived in an empty square with their whole family at night these days, or put valuables and food at hand early, and they sleep at night without closing the door or getting into the mosquito net, because the great director from Hong Kong said that closing the door is equivalent to giving up the door of life, and getting into the mosquito net is equivalent to entering the fishing net, and through more than 20 days of training experience, they have made the most correct response even in the first few seconds of the earthquake

Located in the middle of Tangshan and Qinglong County, the set of "Earth-shattering" also contacted the central government in the fastest time after the earthquake, and at 4:10 a.m. on July 28, 1976, more than a dozen liberation vehicles pulled 200 PLA soldiers, with props used during filming, and drove towards Tangshan City.

Wang Xiaohu and Lao Zhao sat in a liberation car at the front, their faces were relatively solemn, and the pace of the team's progress was not very fast, because there would be a few aftershocks from time to time, and the liberation car had to stop to avoid shocks.

Lao Zhao lit a cigarette, his fingers holding the cigarette were trembling violently, and after a long time, he said: "Mr. Wang, I haven't asked you how you know that the epicenter is from Tangshan?" ”

"You are the People's Liberation Army, and you are the deputy head of the guard regiment closest to the chairman, and you won't believe some things when you say them." Wang Xiaohu was also a little depressed at this time, he was too excited at that time, and directly blurted out the information of his previous life, and the earthquake experts had not yet figured out where the epicenter was, so he opened his mouth and said Tangshan.

"How?"

"Figured it out." Wang Xiaohu shrugged helplessly, took out a cigarette from Lao Zhao's jacket pocket, and lit it by himself, he rarely smoked, and only when he encountered an emergency, he wanted to smoke a cigarette to refresh himself and calm down his brain.

The cigarette without a filter tasted very spicy, but it stimulated his nerves a lot more soberly, "All the wealthy businessmen in Hong Kong believe in Zhou Yi's metaphysics, who doesn't have a few feng shui gentlemen, and I just know a little bit, when the earthquake pinched my fingers, I knew that there was a problem in Tangshan." ”

After hearing this answer, Lao Zhao's heart suddenly rose a ridiculous thought, if the location of the epicenter was misjudged, wouldn't it delay the entire disaster relief time?

Wang Xiaohu doesn't care whether Lao Zhao believes it or not, in short, the facts he saw in Tangshan will prove everything. When Wang Xiaohu and Jin Yong learned this thing, the first thing that came to mind was the explanation for coping with the Tangshan earthquake, no matter what, this is the best reason for an explanation after all, as for whether anyone believes it, so what? With the secret decree of Taizu, who can jump out and arrest himself to study, and those Red Guards still dare to shout and criticize themselves?

If someone insists on putting a big hat such as a crow's beak and a broom star on themselves, it doesn't matter, anyway, things have happened, everyone is shocked at this time, even after sobering up, they are also thinking about how to fight the earthquake and disaster relief, who proposed the epicenter is no longer the focus, as for the aftermath, hehe, Lao Tzu is facing [***] is also this explanation tone, can you really arrest Lao Tzu?

"My name is Zhao Gang, and I am the deputy head of the Third Regiment of the Central Guard Corps, although the Guard Regiment was incorporated into the Public Security Bureau after 69 years, we still maintain the old establishment internally, and the people call us Unit 8341."

Zhao Gang didn't know what kind of mentality he was in, so he lit another cigarette and began to say something to Wang Xiaohu about topics that didn't seem to have anything to do with it at the moment.

"Unit 8341?" Wang Xiaohu raised his eyebrows, this establishment can be described as a famous name, if it is changed in a feudal society, it is the imperial forest army next to the emperor! Although I have always guessed that Lao Zhao's military rank is not small, I didn't expect him to be such a mythical figure.

"To be honest, your identity scares me!" Wang Xiaohu did not hide the surprise in his heart, and said with a wry smile: "It turns out that I have been enjoying the treatment of the national leadership level for the past month, and I am protected by more than 30 of your Zhongnanhai bodyguards. ”

"Huh." Zhao Gang grinned bitterly, not angry at Wang Xiaohu's teasing, he continued: "Telling you this, I just want you to make preparations, when we get a foothold at Tangshan Station, we will go to Zhongnanhai, and the leaders are afraid that you and your people will be persecuted by some people." ”

"I know how to do it." Wang Xiaohu sighed, and said after a long time: "My people, as well as my shooting equipment, will be closely guarded, and they will not turn on the camera to shoot things that should not be filmed." ”

"How do you know?" Zhao Gang looked incredible, the order issued by the central government was indeed like this, on the grounds of protecting the safety of Hong Kong film companies, let them go to Zhongnanhai for a few days, lest they shoot things indiscriminately during this sensitive period. Unexpectedly, Wang Xiaohu directly said the answer, could it be that he is really a god?

"I said, I can pinch and calculate." Wang Xiaohu pretended to smile mysteriously, as if he had guessed what Zhao Gang was thinking, and said this sentence that Zhao Gang could no longer explain with scientific evidence, and could only relieve the turbulence in his heart by smoking violently.

"Zhou Yi's thing may not be accurate every time, I haven't calculated it accurately once before, but every time I calculate it in the past half a month, it's more accurate, fuck, it's evil." Wang Xiaohu scolded, then closed his eyes and said, "Tell me when you arrive in Tangshan." ”

Wang Xiaohu stopped talking, he was so tired these days, his body and mind were in a state of high tension, and he really fell asleep.

Several liberation cars pulled 100 PLA soldiers and the crew of "Earth-shattering", driving quickly on the way to Tangshan, 1 km behind them is following the team of people and horses to run forward, running in front of another 100 PLA soldiers, they tightly protect the crane, bulldozer and various props used in filming, behind this batch of PLA are thousands of village cadres and villagers in Qinglong County, they all spontaneously went to Tangshan for disaster relief.

At the same time, the eight major military regions also received an order from the central government to immediately organize the backbone elite troops to go to Tangshan at full speed for disaster relief; before they entered Tangshan, a detailed and effective earthquake prevention plan was sent to the hands of the representatives of the major military regions, and the earthquake commanders of the major military regions immediately summoned all the backbone cadres on the advancing cars, comprehensively conveyed this earthquake prevention plan, and ordered all units to carry out earthquake relief in accordance with the contents of the plan immediately after entering Tangshan!

On the roads leading to Tangshan, smoke and dust filled the air, and the 100,000 disaster relief troops of the Chinese People's Liberation Army marched to the earthquake-stricken areas at night. From time to time, radio cars rocking whip antennas send communication signals to the troops.

Countless Jiefang-brand trucks full of soldiers, one after another, honking their whistles and forming a long queue on the muddy roads, as if "in the early days of the war", the target was Tangshan, a city that had almost become flat.

After the Tangshan earthquake, the whole army and the whole people launched a vigorous earthquake relief campaign around a detailed plan in all aspects.

When the 100,000-strong army was still running on the highway, Tangshan was spasming, aching, and waking up. The black rain after the earthquake poured down towards the ruins.

Like many major earthquakes in history, the endless torrential rain seemed to weep for the victims in the ruins, but there were so many tears that they were helpless and desperate, and the clammy rain poured on people's faces, and it was impossible to distinguish whether it was rain or tears.

The drafter of the earthquake plan, at this time, was sitting on the liberation truck and fell asleep, even if it was pouring rain, the aftershocks could not wake him up, he was too tired, and the high tension for 28 consecutive days made him very weak.

Encountering a bridge that was broken into several sections, the PLA soldiers took the march forward, and the engineering troops immediately started the road widening work, at this time, the smooth road is time, is life, and the important surname of the entire earthquake relief is self-evident, these concepts have been deeply implanted in their minds with the 20-day filming, almost no one needs to order, they will take the initiative to solve the problem when they see it, and the first "lifeline" is going on simultaneously.

"Head Zhao, there has been news on the set that several hospitals in Qinhuangdao have set up temporary operating rooms there, with 53 surgeons in place and 130 accompanying nurses on standby to deal with the victims in Tangshan." Xiao Sun ran over to report to work.

Zhao Gang nodded, "What is the situation with the other major military regions?" ”
