Time always flies, especially when things are urgent.

It seems like just a blink of an eye, April has passed.

For Chen Nian's safety, his superiors persuaded him to leave several times, but Chen Nian refused every time.

It's not because he insists on "standing with the majority of people" pedantically, but because his intuition tells him that the crisis will be successfully overcome.

The possibility of such a "miracle" happening does not exist.

Although the probability is very small, you have to fight for it.

Inside an airport.

Chen Nian stood in front of a Mi-26 helicopter with obvious regret in his eyes.

He looked at Chen Guo standing aside and said:

"You have to be honest, I'm still an old man, you can make this kind of thing."

"Moreover, the Mi-26 was produced thirty years ago, but even now, it is the world's top and most advanced large transport helicopter."

"You can imagine how developed the Soviet military industry was at that time."

"It is a pity that such a powerful country, which had the opportunity to carry the banner of human unity, fell like this."

"Not only did it fail, but there was no successor."

"Aren't we?"

Chen Guo asked mockingly.

".I'm talking about immediate family members. We and him are at best brothers with different surnames, and we are the ones who have had big conflicts."

"Forget it, let's not talk about this - are all the planes in place? How many are there in total?"

"There are a total of 6 Mi-26s, and there are nearly 40 helicopters of various types transferred from various places. According to previous estimates, as long as there is no large-scale damage to roads or buildings, these helicopters should be enough, and at most

It’s just a matter of flying more sorties.”

Chen Nian looked around and saw that the entire airport was full of helicopters. The scene was quite spectacular.

The only fly in the ointment is that these helicopters are of all kinds of strange shapes and colors. The only one that is relatively neat is the Mi-26 parked in a row.

This also reflects China’s current weakness in the helicopter field.

It is no exaggeration to say that in these days, China, even if it empties its wealth, cannot put together a complete army aviation regiment.

Thinking of this, he asked again:

"How is our own heavy-lift helicopter project going? Is it going well?"

"It seems to be going smoothly so far, and there are basically no obstacles encountered. But of course, it is impossible to make it in time."

"For this project, we will definitely not be able to use our own heavy-duty helicopters."

"I didn't expect to use it right away."

Chen Nian replied calmly.

He reached out and touched the red-painted fuselage of the Mi-26, thought for a moment and then said:

"The cabin dismantling work must be started as soon as possible. At least two aircraft must be dismantled and specially used for large machinery hoisting purposes."

"If an uncontrollable situation occurs and the large machinery deployed there is not enough, whether new equipment can be brought in quickly will determine whether many people can survive."

"Understood, we have communicated with each other, disassembly is not difficult, and can be solved in one day."

"That's fine."

Chen Nian nodded slightly, and then continued to ask:

"Have the action personnel been arranged? What reasons will be used and who will coordinate?"

"Organizations at all levels are responsible for it. The personnel have been arranged. The reason is designated as an exercise. We have done publicity and preparation in the early stage, so there is not much problem in organizing it."

"The only trouble now is that there is indeed a certain amount of panic among the people, thinking that we are going to war."

"But there's nothing we can do about it. Let's choose the lesser of two evils. Once we've passed this level, we can explain it slowly."

"Well, I'm not professional in this area, so I won't participate in the discussion."

…

Do reasons matter?

In fact, it is not important at all. The reason why it is designated as an exercise is just to slightly enhance the persuasiveness.

Chen Guo's words of "explain slowly after passing this level" may sound a bit perfunctory, but in fact, this is the best way to deal with the aftermath.

Seeing Chen Nian's slightly anxious expression, Chen Guo reached out and patted his shoulder, then comforted him:

"Don't worry, we have been preparing for a long time."

"Everything is going according to plan."

Chen Nian sighed and said:

"hope so."

this day.

For Chen Nian, this is a day that will never be forgotten.

On this day, Chen Nian strangely lost the nervousness he had before, and instead felt an indescribable sense of loneliness.

He knew the source of this loneliness very well - because in the world he now lived in, there was no one else who could deeply experience that heart-wrenching memory like him.

He cannot speak to others.

But more than anything, I'm glad.

Thinking of this, Chen Nian calmed down.

In the emergency command room, everyone nervously stared at the big screen in the center of the command room.

According to Chen Nian's opinion, this work adopted a novel visual presentation method.

Each area and each unit enters information into the system in advance to create a file, and imports it into a simple program preset in advance.

The program is connected to major operators and is authorized to capture SMS messages through dedicated number segments.

In this way, all front-line executors at the lower level only need to remember a few simple passwords to quickly report on-site situations to the headquarters.

At this moment, what is displayed on the big screen is the collected and summarized information.

The "Started" rate is 100%, the Completed rate is 0%, and the Executing rate is 69%.

The completion rate is low, but that's not because there's something wrong with the execution.

In fact, this is a plan deliberately made by organizations at all levels after discussions.

The warm-up time is very long, but the actual action time is very short, maybe only a few minutes.

And these few minutes are just stuck at the moment when the crisis arrives.

Such a strategy can be said to be radical, but it also represents the executives' complete confidence in the organization.

This kind of self-confidence allows them to take a risk and use the most extreme solution to try to save everyone's life, without having to consider the so-called trolley problem.

In the seat closest to the big screen, a middle-aged man with gray hair stared at the screen with a stern expression, silently calculating the data on it.

After thinking briefly, he asked:

"Have you acted in advance for the elderly, the weak, the sick, the disabled and other groups with limited mobility?"

"It's done, the lower-level menu can be seen, and the completion level is 100%."

The executive secretary replied from the side.

"This part of the plan is in separate rows, and the buffer time reserved is relatively long."

"Okay. How are the equipment and personnel prepared?"

"It's on standby and ready for action at any time. In addition, our troops stationed there are also ready and their equipment is on board."

"Where are the supplies? How is the situation at the local warehouse?"

"All local warehouses have been reinforced and are supervised by dedicated personnel arranged by us. There are sufficient supplies. We currently have 5 days of supplies in reserve. The supply chain has been opened. If needed in the future, each warehouse can be replenished with supplies within 6 hours.

"

"In the most extreme case, these supplies can enter the disaster area entirely via air routes, and the average daily delivery volume can meet the needs of 2 million people."

Hearing this, the white-haired man nodded slightly.

Afterwards, he checked the execution of all tasks again. After confirming that there were no errors or omissions, he took a deep breath and said:

"Everything is ready."

"Next, it depends on the performance of the geological shield over there."

The executive secretary opposite nodded slightly and said:
