Chapter 193: The Impact of the Explosion
The four people in the car didn't have the idea of meddling, and they didn't want to watch the excitement.
So after reaching an agreement on the attitude, Ding Ning hit the steering wheel, stepped on the accelerator to the end, and drove back to Chen Xin's shelter quickly.
Fortunately, the high-speed rail station was not far from Chen Xin's shelter, and soon the four of them returned to Chen Xin's shelter.
After parking the car and getting out of the car, Li Yulong asked Chen Xin with a nervous face: "Brother Chen, what is going on?" Was that really an explosion? ”
"It's hard to say whether it was an explosion or not, but it's certainly not the sound of a meteorite falling." Chen Xin's face was also very serious at this time, he thought about it and said to Li Yulong: "Xiaolong, you better hurry up and take your people back, remember to close the door of the shelter after you go back, don't open the door if you have nothing to do, and call the police if you have something." ”
"Okay, I'll listen to Brother Chen!" Li Yulong didn't have any temper at this time, and directly agreed.
After reminding Chen Xin to pay attention to safety, he returned to the city with his men who had been waiting outside Chen Xin's shelter just now.
Watching Li Yulong leave, Chen Xin also closed the door of the shelter.
As the door of the heavy nickel-chromium alloy steel was locked, Chen Xin was relieved.
"Ah Xin, what the hell do you say is going on? Could it be ......" The look on Qin Lan's face was a little solemn, and she asked Chen Xin.
Her professionalism as a SWAT officer had already made her hear that it was an explosion, and in connection with what had happened recently, she naturally had some guesses.
Chen Xin's expression hesitated slightly, he was not sure whether the explosion was caused by the terrorists that Qin Lan had guessed, but he still said to Qin Lan: "It may be, so I will close the door for the time being, and before confirming that it is safe, Ah Lan, you and Xiao Ding had better not go out." ”
"Okay." Regarding Chen Xin's decision to temporarily close the shelter and not go out, Qin Lan replied affirmatively, and Ding Ning on the side also nodded.
Although for Qin Lan, she really wanted to bring that group of terrorists to justice and avenge her sacrificed comrades, but she was by no means a reckless person.
Qin Lan clearly knew that it was impossible for her to fight against a group of terrorists on her own, and her current task was to protect Chen Xin, and she couldn't leave Chen Xin's side until she completed this task.
What's more, before she figured out what was going on, even if she wanted to go out to catch the terrorists, she didn't know where to catch them, and the explosion just now was so abrupt that she couldn't tell where the sound came from.
The three of them agreed and returned to the inside of the vault.
At this time, Ding Ning grabbed Chen Xin and asked him, "Ah Xin, what do you think the explosion just now will be something that blew up?" ”
"It's hard to say, there's so much that can be fried." Chen Xin couldn't make a judgment on what caused the two explosions just now: "It may be that terrorists attacked shelters in the city, or that the city government is encircling and suppressing terrorists, and it is more likely that terrorists are attacking somewhere else...... There were so few clues to the two explosions that I couldn't tell what was going on. ”
"Then I'll contact my dad and ask what's going on?" Ding Ning's first thought was her father, who was the captain of the SWAT team.
Chen Xin shook his head slightly, stopping Ding Ning's move: "Wait a minute, if something really happens, Uncle Ding is busy now, and you can only make trouble for him if you contact him now." ”
Hearing Chen Xin say this, Qin Lan also said in agreement: "Yes, Ah Ning, no matter what caused the explosion just now, even if it is not a terrorist, the team is busy now, you contact the captain at this time, and he doesn't have time to say anything more to you, so let's wait a while." ”
Seeing that Qin Lan and Chen Xin both said this, Ding Ning also gave up the idea of contacting Uncle Ding immediately, but he was still very worried about the situation in the urban area: "If only I could know what happened." ”
"It's not that easy! There is no radio in the city right now. Chen Xin couldn't help but shake his head.
It stands to reason that after the disaster, although the TV signal was gone for various reasons, there should always be broadcasting, but I don't know why the city government has not resumed broadcasting, so that Chen Xin now has no channel to know some news.
There was no new information, and even if the three of them discussed, they couldn't get any results, and finally chatted casually about their own opinions, and they didn't talk about this topic again.
——————————————————
At this time, the encirclement and suppression of terrorists in the urban area had ended.
Although the terrorists detonated a bomb at the entrance of the city government shelter, because the city government had been prepared for this for a long time, and the entrance of the city government shelter was also heavily guarded, the bomb that was supposed to be taken into the shelter and detonated was blocked from the door, and the terrorists who attacked the city government shelter were also suppressed by the special police, armed police, and military who had been ambushed in advance.
Although the terrorists showed a fierce will to fight to the death, they were quickly eliminated due to the lack of weapons and the closed gates of the city shelter.
The few remaining living mouths were deliberately left behind by the SWAT officers to obtain information.
Just watching his subordinates clean up the battlefield, Uncle Ding and the commander of the armed police force had ugly faces, and even the officers from the army on the side also had a blue face.
Everyone should be happy to be able to eliminate the terrorists in this way, but after the terrorists detonated the bomb during the previous battle, the second explosion in the distance made everyone understand that these terrorists in front of them were nothing more than smoke bombs thrown by the other party, and the other party also attacked other places.
"Have you found out? Where the hell did the explosion happen? Uncle Ding looked at the political commissar beside him and asked him seriously.
The political commissar nodded with an ugly face, and said in a low voice: "It is a railway bridge leading to Hubei Province, and the terrorists blew up the bridge." ”
"What?!" Uncle Ding's face changed suddenly, and he obviously realized the seriousness of the problem: "Didn't you remind the comrades on the railway before that we must strictly ensure the safety of the railway?" How could the railway bridge be blown up? ”
Hearing this news, the faces of the armed police commander and the officers of the unit on the side suddenly changed, and their expressions became nervous.
Uncle Ding is not nervous, most of the city's current supplies rely on external inputs, and the railway is the lifeline of the city's surviving 200,000 people, once this lifeline is blocked, the city's 200,000 citizens will be seriously affected.
"What about the damage to the railway bridge? Can it be fixed? Uncle Ding asked the political commissar.
However, the political commissar shook his head: "At present, the specific situation is not clear, the comrades from the railway and Lao Zhang's team have already rushed to the scene." ”
Hearing the political commissar say this, Uncle Ding didn't say anything more, and the armed police commander and the officers of the unit on the side were also silent.
It's just too much of an impact.
The ensuing emergency meeting undoubtedly confirmed this point, and the blown railway bridge seriously affected the smooth flow of railways between Hubei Province and the city.
Although the flow of materials between Hubei Province and Hunan Province can also take the railway in the direction of Wuling, this is undoubtedly a big circle compared with walking from this city, which seriously affects the transportation of materials between the two provinces.
According to the results of the on-site assessment by the railway staff, it will take at least seven days to repair the railway bridge, even if it is a 24-hour continuous rotation.
Seven days is not an irresistible period for the city government, and the existing reserves of the city's various shelters are enough to last two weeks, and during this time, as long as the railway bridge is rushed, the supply of materials can be restored, so in terms of materials, the city government is not worried about this.
It was coal that really worried everyone involved.
In the aftermath of the disaster, all of the city's electricity came from thermal power from thermal power plants, which consumed a lot of coal every day.
In the past, because the railway was still open, there would be a special train to transport coal from the direction of Hubei Province every three days to bring the necessary coal to the city, so although the coal consumption was not small, the city government was still able to have a slight surplus, and the reserve was enough for about five days of coal.
This is to be used in case of emergency.
But it is clear that even if it is saved, this batch of coal will not be able to last for seven days.
"Can the province support some coal?" The officials of the city government looked at the officials from the provincial government, and at this time, they could only ask the province for help first.
"Yes, but it will take some time to deploy, and it may take the comrades in the city to overcome the difficulties first." Of course, there is no such time without support, but it takes time to bring supplies from other places.
The leaders of the city government were satisfied with this result, so several key leaders made a decision after discussion.
"The comrades on the railway side must rush to get through the railway as quickly as possible, and the city government will give you the greatest support if there is any difficulty, and you must give you materials and people, but you must do it in six days...... No, in five and a half days, rush to open the railway! At this time, the mayor also didn't care whether his order was inhumane or whether the comrades on the railroad could complete it, so he directly gave the death order.
The leaders of the railway could naturally understand why the mayor gave such an order, so they replied very seriously: "Guarantee to complete the task!" ”
At this time, it was obvious that there was no need for long-winded articles, but actual actions, so after making assurances, the railway official left the conference room and arranged for people to start repairing the railway bridge.
However, although the railway bridge is guaranteed to be repaired in five and a half days, the city government still needs to prepare for the worst.
"From now on, all departments must go all out to ensure that the restoration of the railway bridge can be completed on schedule! At the same time, from now on, in addition to the necessary electricity, each evacuation center will begin to take measures to reduce the power generation of power plants, and ensure that the coal used for heating in each evacuation station and the basic power generation of power plants will be used during this time. "The mayor made the final decision.
