Zhu Yusheng and Xiao Hu led a relatively neat formation among the dark buildings and started marching in the water up to their ankles. Although the number of teams on the road was much smaller than during the day, there were more than 100 teams setting out in the dark.

One of them.

It was noon, and the thick clouds that reached the rooftops of high-rise buildings made the sky look like dusk. They finally arrived at the entrance of the highway in the south of the city. At the entrance of the wide highway, several teams were already resting here for lunch.

Just when everyone was pouring the water out of their shoes and thankful to finally be able to rest on dry ground, the sky began to rain. Zhu Yusheng put on his raincoat and leaned against the guardrail of the highway to eat the heat of the rain.

food.

The highway built on the embankment is much higher than the endless green farmland around it. The avenue behind the rain curtain stretches towards the city in the distance. Looking at the shadows of buildings in the clouds and rain in the distance, it seems that you can still hear the sounds between the buildings.

Echoing the muffled thunder of the tide.

Xiao Hu next to him suddenly pointed to the farmland next to him and shouted:

"Brother Yu Sheng, look quickly!"

He looked in the direction of Xiao Hu's finger and saw that the lush farmland in the distance was turning black as if it had been brushed by a huge brush. Soon, with the sound of water splashing, the farmland in front of him was being wiped out by a jet of black.

The water curtain quickly covered the area. The first tide was not high, and the green crops washed over by the tide could reappear in the dark water.

But when the second wave of tide came, no trace of green could be seen anymore. And the sound of lapping on the embankment gradually became louder, and even water splashed on them.

Several military jeeps roared through the rain curtain and braked suddenly before stopping in front of the highway intersection gate. The mud on the vehicles continued to flow down.

The few soldiers who got out of the car were covered in water. They looked panicked and said something to the officers in front of the gate. Although their voices could not be heard, it was clear from their expressions and body language that the situation was similar to what was happening in the city.

The matter is relevant and very urgent.

"Brother Yu Sheng! What is this..." Before Xiao Hu could finish speaking, the waves splashing from the farmland under the embankment that had been covered by the black tide hit him directly. There were waves in the surrounding farmland.

There was a loud sound, and the sound coming from the foggy shadow of the building in the distance sounded like a loud bell.

A sharp whistle sounded, and several officers stood on the steps of the gate with loudspeakers and shouted:

"Everyone evacuates immediately! Pay attention to order! Evacuate immediately!"

Zhu Yusheng and Xiao Hu quickly gathered a team and ran to the gate. Although there were many teams in front of the gate, all the teams passed the gate in an orderly manner under the command of people who had undergone long-term military training in the crisis era.

.

A dozen trailers with two or three trailers hanging on them have been parked in the large open space on the other side of the barrier. Some of the trailers are double-layer trailers used to transport cars. A guardrail is welded around the periphery of the trailers.

They are all transport vehicles that were urgently modified after the electromagnetic pulse.

Lines of teams are being stuffed onto the pallets, with each person only having enough room to stand, and each pallet is stuffed like bundles of enoki mushrooms in the market.

More trailers with long trailers were coming from the highway. They could not turn around and could only draw a large arc around the open space and then parked in the open space. The team whose name was called quickly squeezed in again.

Go up.

Zhu Yusheng anxiously counted the number of teams and the remaining trailers in the open space, while the non-commissioned officers leading the teams around him were all doing the same thing.

"Brother Yu Sheng, look!" Xiao Hu interrupted him with a horrified cry.

He looked back impatiently, and was surprised by the tide pouring in from the gate. After the frothy black water surged through the narrow gate, it gathered into a surface again, and the water head pushed forward until

Zhu Yusheng's feet stopped. He and Xiao Hu looked at each other, and the surrounding team began to become restless.

At this time, a military vehicle drove out of the gate, and a man with the rank of colonel climbed on the roof of the vehicle. He shouted loudly with a loudspeaker:

"Everyone, stay calm and obey the command. This is just the tide. We have time and enough tow trucks to move everyone out! Please stay calm and obey the command!...."

Before the officer finished speaking, a second wave of waves roared through the gate and rushed into the open space. This time the tide directly submerged their feet.

"You! Take your team and get in the car quickly!" A roaring voice came from behind.

Zhu Yusheng looked back and saw an officer pointing at him angrily.

"What are you doing? Take your people and get in the car quickly. Boarding must be completed within three minutes, hurry up!" the officer pointed at a trailer that had just stopped behind him and yelled.

Zhu Yusheng and Xiao Hu immediately directed their team to run to the trailer. Xiao Hu directed the young and strong men to go directly to the upper level from the ladder, while Zhu Yusheng stood in front of the trailer's springboard, waving his arms and commanding his men.

Get in the car.

More than 800 people were crammed into the three-car trailer in less than three minutes. The people at the end of the queue climbed onto the back of the trailer, and then Zhu Yusheng and Xiao Hu put away the springboard and jumped on. The trailer was powered by a dull diesel engine.

It started slowly with a roar, and a new wave of water rushed into the gate, making a loud noise, and all the glass in the toll station cabin of the gate was smashed.

The incoming tide made the queue still waiting for the bus become crooked, and the officer standing on the roof stumbled and almost fell. As the trailer accelerated onto the highway, the situation in front of the gate became blurred in the rain curtain.

Blurred.

In the end, all they saw was that the tide rushed through the barrier gate like a dam opening, and the spray of water almost blocked the entire barrier gate. The already messy queue in the open space suddenly looked like sand washed away by waves on the beach.

Fall apart.

The trailer coming from behind blocked his sight. Zhu Yusheng, who was in shock, clung to the railing of the trailer, his helmet on the retracted springboard and gasped for air. A stream of water hit him, and his mouth was filled with bitterness.

The smell of sea water.

When he looked up, his eyes widened at the horrific sights around him. The low farmland on both sides of the highway had turned into a swamp, and the dark seawater was rolling up and down with the advance of the tide. Although the water surface was still some distance from the road shoulder,

distance, but the huge waves caused by the tide line hitting the embankment can cover almost the entire road.

The entire highway was like driftwood in the storm, and the waves and tides ravaged them wantonly. The team that was still moving on foot on the highway was thrown to the ground like dolls in the huge waves, and they could not get up just after they got up.

After walking a few steps, a second wave overturned them. In the meantime, some people even fell down the embankment with the retreating sea water.

The ferocious tide hit the embankment and raised a huge palm-sized wave. Accompanied by the roar of the car engine, it rushed from behind again. The trailer following closely behind was completely blocked by the water curtain at the moment the wave passed by.

Zhu Yusheng clung to the railing tightly and let the sea water shake the car with a loud splash.

After the huge wave passed, Xiao Hu beside him asked with a pale face:

"Brother Yu Sheng...the comrades who are still behind us, do they still have a chance to withdraw?" There was sadness in his words.

Zhu Yusheng put on a somewhat forced smile on his face and nodded slightly:

"Our evacuation position has been very far back, and there is basically no one behind us. The vast majority of people can evacuate to a safe altitude smoothly, there is nothing to worry about! And you see, there are several trailers behind us.

Just follow."

Xiao Hu stretched his neck to look at the trailer behind him in the mist and rain, nodded, and showed a simple smile on his face. Zhu Yusheng turned his head and sighed deeply, the world around him was already shrouded in rain curtains,

All that could be seen was the turbulent black sea.

He knew in his heart that the Pujiang estuary is a super urban agglomeration with a population of more than 300 million, and the location where they evacuated was not the center of the urban agglomeration. Judging from their evacuation route, evacuation time, and the speed of the tide, at least there were

One-third of people cannot evacuate areas that will be flooded during high tides.

(Happy National Day to all my friends! May your life be better and better, and may our motherland become stronger and stronger!)
