"Are you so sure that there will be a major earthquake in May that is no less than the Tangshan earthquake?" Looking at Lin Hongfei and the information that Lin Hongfei handed over to him, Dongfang Zheng's brows were twisted into deep Sichuan characters, "You should know very well that even if there is an analysis report made by the National Earthquake Network, no one can say for sure about this kind of thing, if your prediction is wrong......"

Dongfang Zheng did not continue, he believed that Lin Hongfei knew very well that once his prediction was wrong, for him, this mistake would be absolutely fatal.

Just now, Lin Hongfei urgently found him and reported to him some abnormal situations found by AVIC Second Group in Shudi enterprises: animals are uneasy, groundwater is abnormal, etc., it seems that there may be an earthquake recently.

There is a possibility of an earthquake in Shudi, and the central government actually knows about it, which is determined by the special topographic structure of Shudi, but he didn't expect that the first person to report to the central government was not the National Earthquake Administration, but Lin Hongfei.

"I know what the old man said," Lin Hongfei nodded, why didn't he know what the old man said? "At the very least, there is a theoretical basis for my prediction, that the Indian Ocean plate is subducting into the Eurasian plate, causing the rapid uplift of the Tibetan Plateau. Mount Everest is rising every year, and this has been proven. ”

According to the data of the National Earthquake Administration over the years, it can be determined that the plateau material flows slowly to the east, and the eastern edge of the plateau is extruded eastward along the Longmen Mountain tectonic belt, encountering the tenacious resistance of the Si & Sichuan Basin, resulting in the long-term accumulation of tectonic stress energy, which has reached a very high degree and may be triggered at any time, and once this strong tectonic stress is triggered. The most likely location to be triggered is the area of Longmen Mountain, North & Sichuan to Ying&Xiu area. ”

"This area happens to be the transition zone of the brittle toughness of the earth's crust, once an earthquake occurs, the depth of the epicenter is only 10 to 20 kilometers, close to the surface, it is a standard shallow earthquake, and it is also the most destructive earthquake such as thrust, dextralwind, and extrusion faults, which lasts for a long time, so the damage is huge and the impact is strong. The head of the National Earthquake Administration personally told me that it was a private discussion. It is possible that the magnitude of this earthquake will reach 8. ”

Level 8? Dongfang Zheng's face turned a little pale: the Tangshan earthquake that broke out in 1976 was only 7.8 magnitude, how much damage did that earthquake cause to the country? Tangshan City, where the earthquake occurred, is still located in the North China Plain, which is economically developed and has convenient transportation, but if it is true that Lin Hongfei said that there is an earthquake in these places, the traffic will inevitably be interrupted, and how will the disaster relief activities be carried out?

"If it really happens. What we do, although we still can't avoid huge losses. Wouldn't it be nice if we could have minimized the losses as low as possible in the first place? Equally. Even if the facts can prove that my guess is false, even if I lose my official position, I am happy in my heart. Lin Hongfei's tone was very heavy, only he knew what he said, and what he said was not a prediction, but a fact that would definitely happen. That's what he said, and that's what he really thought.

"I need to immediately ask the comrades of the National Earthquake Administration about the situation," the level of 8 completely frightened Dongfang Zheng, and he no longer dared to slack off. When he turned his head to look at Lin Hongfei again, his gaze had become gentle, "No matter what, you are also kind, I promise, as long as the National Earthquake Network can confirm that there is indeed a very high probability of a major earthquake of extremely high magnitude in Shudi in the near future, I can't blame you anyway." ”

"I'd rather the earthquake didn't happen." Lin Hongfei smiled bitterly and said.

Dongfang Zheng responded, "But no matter what, it's always right to be prepared, and your heavy helicopter must speed up production, you are right, in case of such a disaster, the huge role of the Z-13 cannot be replaced." ”

————————————————————————

Lin Hongfei did not know how the leaders would choose, but the second group of AVIC suddenly received an order, and the order to produce the Z-13 heavy helicopter with all its might explained everything in silence.

Zhang Jianliang, captain of the Army Aviation Brigade of the Shungeng Military Region, received an inexplicable military order: He flew to the Rongcheng Military Region with his four Z-13 heavy helicopters and all the Z-13 crew members in training, and practiced with the Army Aviation Brigade of the Rongcheng Military Region and explored the use and application of the Z-13 in disaster relief and rescue when a major natural disaster occurred in Shu.

At the same time, four other Z-13 heavy helicopters to be delivered by AVIC No. 2 Group also received them in the Rongcheng Military Region.

What does this mean exactly? Zhang Jianliang turned this inexplicable military order around and looked at it repeatedly: If it weren't for the three bright red seals of the Central & Central Military Commission, the Shungeng Military Region Headquarters, and the Shungeng Military Region Political Office above on this strange order, it would be enough to show that this order was true.

Since the order is true, there is nothing to say, and the soldier regards obedience to the order as his duty, and after the authenticity of the order was reconfirmed through the military's confidential communication system, Zhang Jianliang no longer had any doubts in his heart.

At this moment, Ma Maosheng, the captain of an army aviation brigade of the Rongcheng Military Region, was also muttering to the military order that had just arrived.

Three days later, four Z-13 heavy helicopters took off from the Shungeng Military Region and headed for the destination of the trip: the station of a certain army aviation brigade of the Rongcheng Military Region.

At the same time, Shu Province has also received a notice from the central government that May is the "Provincial Disaster Mitigation Month" in Shu Province, and the whole province should conduct drills on rescue and self-rescue in the event of major natural disasters, especially the skills of earthquake prevention and disaster relief...... In the notice to the relevant leaders of Shu Province, it was emphasized that this matter should be grasped as a political task and effectively implemented, and every county and city in the province should go to war, and the slightest prevarication and perfunctory behavior should not be allowed.

The stern wording of the notice frightened many people, and no one knew what the Central Committee was smoking this time, but no matter what kind of wind it was pumping, the three heavy words of "political task", "supervision working group" and "recorded in the archives" all made the officials in Shu feel the strong will of the central government: In this matter, we must go all out, and whoever dares to shirk the blame is joking with their official hats!

No one dares to joke about their official hats, although many local officials have complained about the central government's decision to "pat their heads", but since the central government has decided so, what can we say? The little arms still can't twist the thighs, right?

……………………

The feelings of the local officials were not strong, but Ma Maosheng, captain of the Army Aviation Brigade of the Rongcheng Military Region, and Zhang Jian, captain of the Army Aviation Brigade of the Shungeng Military Region, had a heavy conscience: The order given to them by the Central Military Commission was very simple: Before mid-May, they should master the driving skills of the Zhi-13 at any cost and regardless of the life of the machine!

As for the 4 Z-13s that were just delivered in mid-April, they didn't care about running in well, and they used them desperately after getting their hands on them.

Since receiving this order, Zhang Jianliang and Ma Maosheng's gloomy faces have not changed brightly, and the army rarely gives such orders, but once this kind of order is issued, it means that something big will happen...... A straight-13 cost nearly 10 million US dollars, who is not a baby general careful care and run-in, according to the current use intensity, these 8 straight-13 even half of the design life can not be used to scrap.

Finally...... Is there something big going on?

Concerned people soon discovered that the density of trains from the Republic to Shu Province had increased much more than before, more than three times more than before, and they did not know what the Chinese were desperately transporting to Shu Province.

Whether it is the Il-76 transport aircraft purchased or leased, the An-124 strategic transport aircraft leased from the Antonov Design Bureau of Ukraine, and the only four Y-20 large transport planes that have just been preliminarily finalized and have not yet begun small batch production, they are all flying desperately, constantly assembling from all over the country to several airports in Shu Province, and after unloading the goods, they don't even take a break and return to the take-off place again, and so on......

The frequent take-offs and landings of the republic's military transport planes caused great consternation in some surrounding countries, and Vietnam was initially a little worried: Is this a sign that the republic is going to do something to itself? Later, when the intelligence gradually came back, the Vietnamese side was relieved: Well, this is not a ...... to deal with us We have to deal with it with such fanfare......

Vietnam is not worried, it is India's turn to worry, this self-proclaimed "third military power in the world" country was beaten up that year, it was a little sensitive to the number "third", now seeing the "frequent military transfers" on the part of the republic, and even the Yun-20, which has just been preliminarily finalized, has been dispatched, and the entire Indian population was suddenly terrified, and the then Indian prime minister's urgent visit to China, in addition to bringing a large amount of business cooperation ideas, the most important thing is to find out: Chinese, what are you planning to do?

Back then, you were known as the "third player", and we were honest after we took our turns, although we quarreled from time to time, but this is something that everyone understands, we gentlemen don't do anything, it's not right for you to do this......

Even the Americans were frightened, and George W. Bush asked the Republic through the U.S. Embassy in China if the Republic "needs help?" ”

No one thought that our act of urgently dispatching disaster relief materials would cause unease in the surrounding countries, and for a while, the busy and anxious leaders also felt a little crying and laughing. (To be continued......)
