Chapter 410: Washington Subway Explosion (Plus Change)
Car bombs, roadside bombs, RPGs, snipers, the Iranians quickly learned to fight urban guerrilla warfare, constantly depleting the living forces of the Americans, who did not get a single day of peace even if they occupied the cities of Iran, as they do today, car bombs almost razed the command headquarters to the ground! If it weren't for the fact that the commander of the garrison division was not in the command headquarters for the time being, he would have almost died!
The only way to bring the Iranians to their knees is to kill them all!
At the same time, what the Americans did not expect was that the flames of war did not just spread within Iran, but soon burned to the American mainland!
Washington, D.C., Metro Station. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
In the late 70s, Washington's economy was already very developed, and here, the full name is called the Washington Metropolitan Area Rapid Transit System, which is the second busiest urban rail transit system in the United States, second only to the New York subway, which has been in operation since 76. Services include Washington, D.C. and neighboring Prince George's and Montgomery counties in Maryland, and Fairfax County, Arlington County, and Alexandra City in Virginia.
In the subway station, Mike, a young man who has been tired all day, is holding a handheld game console and playing a game composed of small squares.
"Mike, I really don't understand, what's the appeal of this thing, you spent half a year's salary to buy such a game console!" Next to Mike, Mary, a fashionably dressed girl, said.
madeinjapan, this is a game console exported from the island country, due to the high tariffs imposed by the United States on the industrial products of the island country, the price of these goods is extremely high, such a handheld game console, it costs 16,000 dollars! It's twice as expensive as the most advanced computers!
Is a brick-and-block game console worth so much money? As a lover, Mary is very puzzled by Mike's behavior, and what makes Mary even more speechless is that Mike has greatly reduced his interest in himself since he bought this game console! The exercise in bed that I used to look forward to the most has now become a luxury! This Mike, since getting off work, until going to bed, has been holding this thing!
As Mary thought, Mike didn't pay any attention to her and continued to play the console, so Mary finally got angry.
"Mike, then you can live with this game console in the future, I've had enough!" With that, Mary stepped onto the subway that had just arrived, and didn't call Mike.
Mike didn't keep up, Mary felt that her heart was about to break, at the moment when the subway started, she couldn't help but look back at Mike for the last time, in the crowded subway, she only saw a flash of Mike, still holding the brick-like game console to play, every day he pulled him on the subway, tonight, is he going to play here all night?
Mary turned her head, tears falling from her eyes, at this moment, she really wanted to smash that Nintendo company! How many Americans have been harmed by the game!
In the tears in her eyes, she seemed to see that there was a superfluous thing under her feet, that thing, boxy, like a package.
What is it? She bent down to pick it up, but suddenly, she felt a huge impact, a flash of fire in front of her, and at the same time, a loud roar came from her ears.
"Boom!" The subway that was running suddenly made such a loud noise! In the explosion, the entire subway was blown up, the carriages derailed, the passengers at the center of the explosion were reduced to fragments, and the passengers in the rest of the carriages were also screaming.
The explosion reached the station, and the passengers on the platform shouted and ran outside, and Mike, who was holding a game console like a brick and playing a small square game, was still holding his head down, playing his own game, and he had just hit 7,000 points, breaking the record! I have to make persistent efforts and hit 8,000 points!
The hustle and bustle around him, the sound of explosions, had nothing to do with him, and Mike at this time put all his body and mind into the game, and for a person who was obsessed with the game, the game was his whole life.
On November 3, 79, this very ordinary day, for the residents of Washington, the capital of the United States, this day was not ordinary, it was the rush hour after work, an explosion occurred in the running Washington subway, which killed more than 100 people and injured more than 500!
The explosion quickly alarmed the government, and just half an hour after the bombing, the top American leaders, who had already returned home, gathered again at the White House.
"Stein, has the cause of the explosion been identified?" President Carter asked, "There was a subway explosion in the country, which is quite unusual."
"It's not a natural accident, it's a man-made cause." "The exact cause is still under investigation, but we know for sure that someone deliberately planted a time bomb on the subway, and we detected the chemical composition of military explosives in the air," Stan said. ”
Deliberately place a time bomb! Everyone who heard the scene gasped, this is a war against the US mainland!
"Therefore, we suggest that strict security measures be set up in all our public places, subways, buses, banks, commercial buildings and other departments immediately, because the criminals can be so easily dealt with this time, which has something to do with our lax precautions." "To prevent this from happening again, we have to be vigilant," Stan said. ”
Set up strict security measures! For an American country that advocates freedom, this will make it much inconvenient for ordinary people to travel! Imagine going out for a cup of coffee and having strict security at the entrance of the coffee shop, which would make people lose any interest! Moreover, the establishment of these security facilities will allow the United States to greatly increase its investment! For the current economy of the United States, the Iran war has seriously overdrawn the country's financial resources, and if we do this, the United States will invest even more!
"Since someone secretly planted the bomb, then we must find out who planned this operation." Carter has become calm at this time, since it is controlled by someone, as long as the mastermind behind it is found, this incident will naturally be resolved, and there is no need to walk on thin ice to impose martial law on the whole country, which will be quite unfavorable to the country.
"We'll definitely find out about it, but we speculate that behind this organization, there must be those guys in the Middle East." Stan said: "Ladies and gentlemen, the problem we are facing now is still very serious, the Iranian war with huge costs and skyrocketing casualties, do we still need to fight?" (To be continued.) )
