152 Weeds
…
In the evening, the remnant sun was like blood, and the sky was still shrouded in fiery red clouds, shining on this city covered in bruises and holes.
The once-noisy and magnificent metropolis has been repeatedly ravaged by war and reduced to a ruin with nothing.
Hundreds of thousands of tons of steel cannonballs shot into the sky and the Zetari battleship fell to the ground, carrying terrifying kinetic energy under the action of gravity, smashing nearly a thousand large or small craters on the ground.
Under the self-weight of the battleship of nearly a tonnage, the construction of human beings poured with steel and concrete is no more reliable than a castle on the beach.
Every building in the city has been severely damaged, and Wall Street, the world's financial center and a financial powerhouse full of the magic of money, has been smashed by the wreckage of a huge warship, becoming a huge crater with a radius of nearly a kilometer.
Broadway, which borders Wall Street, was once a bustling street full of buildings and high-rise buildings, but was attacked by war and fell to the mortal world. A leak in a gas pipeline ignited a raging flame that ran through Manhattan.
Central Park, surrounded by tall buildings, is surrounded by dense woods that have been set ablaze by artillery fire. Hundreds of bombs and fragments of warships fell here, and from a distance, the debris dotted the sparkling surface of the lake, like a thousand islands.
Destruction is easier than construction, and cities that humans have spent hundreds of years building have been destroyed in war. The bloody wreckage on the road and the black smoke rising into the sky all tell the cruelty and ruthlessness of war.
Life is like the weeds in the wasteland, burned by fire, and will grow out of the dirt and be renewed.
Humans who survived the war began to carry out post-war rescue.
Groups of sappers drove bulldozers converted from armored vehicles along the main road towards the center of the city. These soldiers moved by hand and with machinery to remove obstacles on the road, quickly restored the city's traffic, and also opened up the lifeblood of the city.
130,000 army soldiers swarmed along the criss-crossing paths and marched in an orderly manner towards the city center. With the army as the organization, mankind retained strict discipline and scientific organization, and effectively controlled the order of the city.
Armed with anti-Zetari armor-piercing weapons, the Marines advanced quickly, using overwhelming firepower to clear the ruins of the remnants of ZetaSwiss soldiers and rebellious criminals, gradually recovering the paralyzed city.
The city was punctuated by the sound of sparse gunfire, the crackling of burning flames, and the occasional roar of collapsing buildings.
Under the guidance of senior firefighters, firefighters dressed in eye-catching yellow costumes were busy around the burning building, quickly clearing out the fire barrier and controlling the spread of flames.
At this time, the six gates of the special department also entered the city with the assistance of the army and began to clean the battlefield. They searched the ruins for the remnants of weapons left behind by the Zetari Legion, so that these high-tech dangerous items would not be left behind in the civilian population.
White-clad medics were busy rescuing the charred corpses from the rubble, and if they were lucky enough to find survivors, the grieving crowd would erupt in joy.
After receiving emergency treatment, the survivors were quickly transported to the rear ambulance center for treatment.
The rescue center is located in the suburbs of New York, which was originally a barren plain, but now colorful tents are neatly distributed on the ground, dense and boundless.
During the war, humans used the military supplies stored in the base to set up thousands of temporary living tents here to house New Yorkers who were evacuated in an emergency.
The alien civilization of Zetari uses space-time wormholes to launch a lightning-fast attack on humanity from the other side of the universe. The war broke out so quickly that humanity was caught off guard and forced to choose to fight the enemy in the metropolis of New York, which has a population of 10 million.
Life is so small and insignificant in the face of war.
New York City, which originally had a population of nearly 10 million, experienced the invasion of war, and finally succeeded in evacuating less than 3 million citizens. Nearly five million civilians were killed under artillery fire in the Battle of New York.
In addition to searching for survivors, another important task for the army to enter the city is to search for medicines and medical equipment.
The ambulance center has already received nearly 100,000 seriously injured people, and it is already overcrowded. Stocks of medical supplies have also been depleted, and countless wounded have been denied effective medicines and treatment, and have been left to die wailing in agony. The passing of life happens all the time.
Those who survived had to come to terms with the grief of losing their loved ones and worry about the future in fear. There was inexplicable fear and despair on everyone's face.
The human toll is so great that if the war continues, these human beings who have fled the war may collapse with despair and grief.
From time to time, soldiers with loaded guns and ammunition patrol the shelter to maintain order. Police and civil affairs staff are constantly entering and exiting each tent to register for news of survivors.
Loudspeakers were erected at intervals of 50 meters in the center of the tent, and an impassioned female voice was loudly announcing the news of the victory in the war.
The base, which was originally as silent as a dead field, was like a drop of water splashed into a hot oil pot, and suddenly the hustle and bustle became turbulent. From time to time, survivors come out of their tents, look up at New York in the fire, and unconsciously burst into tears.
At this time, Matthew, the "Light of Victory" who was described on the radio and news as leading mankind to victory in the war, accompanied Ororo and Thor, the god of thunder, to Liberty Island near New York Harbor.
Stormgirl Oloro has a super ability that can control the weather and cause a storm, but in terms of damage done, Stormgirl can't even match an artillery company.
Therefore, during the war, Stormgirl Oloro was required by Matthew to continue her studies as an employer, and was strictly forbidden to participate in combat.
In this regard, Matthew's explanation is that Storm Girl's ability is more of a strategic force that transforms nature and changes the world pattern, rather than fighting, and she represents a new hope for the future of mutants and humanity, which is more important than simply dying on the battlefield.
I saw that with the joint spell of Thor and Storm Girl, the clouds over New York Harbor gradually converged, forming a super cyclone with a width of ten kilometers.
The storm swept through the water vapor in the air, getting darker and darker, and there was a faint rumble of thunder in it. Eventually, it condensed into water and poured into the burning city of New York City in torrential rain.
A little bit of clouds and rain will be harvested, and the earth will be clear again. The rain washed over the land and extinguished the flames that still burned in the city.
In the rain, the largest human migration is taking place in an orderly manner. The American troops assembled in New York began to return to their respective defense zones one after another.
The U.S. military suffered heavy losses in the Zetari Blitzkrieg, with more than 60 percent of its military forces and bases wiped out by Zetari antimatter bombs, and the military defense force was effectively on the verge of collapse.
In addition to military power, what is even more terrifying is the burning flames of Wall Street, the financial empire, which has put the policies and ambitions of US financial hegemony on the ground. Without the guidance of Wall Street financial predators, the dominant role of the United States in the international monetary system will inevitably be sidelined.
Even if the military campaign against the Zetarians is victorious, the double defeat of military and financial hegemony will drag the invincible United States into the abyss of destruction.
This is a problem that has to be faced.
The U.S. Navy fleet set sail for all sides, and hundreds of countries around the world sent emergency humanitarian aid to New York arrived in New York by land, sea and air.
For a time, thousands of sails raced in New York Harbor, covering the sky and the sun.
