the world is at stake

"According to the drawings, this platform has a control room and a maintenance room. There are spare diesel generators and batteries in the maintenance room." Zhou Qingfeng said, "We can live here temporarily."

The control room is easy to find, just to the side of the platform.Inside is extremely old railway signaling equipment.In the maintenance room are diesel generators and power distribution equipment produced in the 60s.

The generator still works, but no diesel.Zhou Qingfeng still used the 'Land Warrior' as a power supply to connect to the power distribution equipment, so that the control room can work normally.

"There is electric heating equipment here." Zhou Qingfeng is not interested in the railway equipment in the control room, but is concerned about the attached living equipment.

One wall of the control room is a schematic diagram of rail transit, and there is a small picture of the platform structure.Fuhrman came over and took a look, "There is a residence with a bathroom, as well as a kitchen and a bathroom."

"This is prepared by the Soviet Union for a nuclear war." Aunt Ilya said proudly: "It's normal to have these."

Fuhrman chuckled, "The United States also has them, and the equipment is even better."

This old man once experienced the 'Capitol Hill Riot' with Zhou Qingfeng, and he can be regarded as a survivor of the nuclear bomb attack.He said something, which made Aunt Ilya very angry.

Several former 'mi-24' crew members were fiddling with a set of radio equipment in the control room.They tuned a channel casually, and heard someone playing a message repeatedly in English, French and Russian.

"Mr. Zhou Qingfeng of 'Holy Light', please return the items you got from Mr. Savelli before nine o'clock at night, otherwise we will have to carry out an indiscriminate nuclear bombing on the whole city.

This will determine whether the 'European Will' will remain a powerful force in the future, so don't underestimate our determination to fight to the death.We are waiting for you at the consulate in St. Petersburg, otherwise there will be no winners in this world. "

The voice came from the station's public address system, and the entire underground space echoed these words.The voice had no emotion, just repeated mechanically.

Everyone in the team looked at each other in blank dismay, only Fuhrman raised his hand and glanced at his watch, snorted and laughed, "The Frenchman is going to do his best, but the time is almost up."

Chapter 22

St. Petersburg, City Hall.

This place used to be called Smolny Academy, a women's college founded by Catherine II.During the October Revolution, Lenin announced the victory of the armed uprising here, 'all power belongs to the Soviets'.

At this moment, the city hall was in chaos.Surrounded by the federal guards, Pu Dadi hurriedly took the elevator into the deep underground nuclear fortification.

During the march of the team, there are heavily guarded heavy-duty explosion-proof doors at intervals as barriers to ensure the safety of government officials during a nuclear war.

But it is useless to have safety in place. If there is a nuclear explosion, the whole city will be destroyed.

Emperor Pu asked and reprimanded the military and political personnel around him loudly, demanding that the "nuclear explosion broadcast" be investigated and dealt with as soon as possible to find out the terrorists hiding in the city.

Officials of the Federal Security Service and the Internal Affairs Bureau were also sweating profusely.They trotted to report how many "illegal radio stations" that broadcast automatically had been found, and how many terrorists had spread out.

Walking and walking, Pu Dadi was about to enter the underground bunker command center but stopped, taking deep breaths with frustration and unwillingness.

The atmosphere froze, and the guards and officials couldn't understand what was going on, but no one dared to ask.

"Yeruofu." Emperor Pu called out his name.

A middle-aged man with an ordinary appearance came up from behind the crowd.

"You all step back and go 50 meters away." Pu Dadi ordered the others.The attendants around were even more confused, but they heard Emperor Pu shout angrily: "Get out of here."

Seeing that the emperor was in a bad mood, the guards and officials quickly retreated.Only Yezhov stood close and waited for orders.

But Pu Dadi sneered at himself first, and asked in a low voice: "Is Martha just complacent at the moment, waiting to see my mission fail?"

Ye Ruofu's expression was dull, and he said dully: "Savili's death was too unexpected, no one thought that Zhou Qingfeng could join forces with the remnants of the Soviet Communist Party.

Now the French also follow Martha's example and want to bury all the chosen ones with them.In the absence of certainty that this is a threat, we can only assume it is true. "

"The customs at the port is useless at present. I am not surprised that a nuclear bomb has really been brought in." Emperor Pu clenched his fists angrily. "Only Martha's psychic powers can confirm the situation in the shortest possible time."

Ye Ruofu immediately understood what his leader wanted to do.He looked up at his watch, "It's less than eight hours before the time limit set by the French. Even if we find Martha, she will definitely not help."

Emperor Pu is currently the one with the most manpower and the strongest strength among the selected candidates.But his task is to maintain the stability of St. Petersburg.Once the nuclear explosion occurs, he will be out of the game directly.

"Is there nothing we can do?"

"We can only try our best, but the possibility of failure is very high."

Ye Ruofu was facing Emperor Pu with neither flattering nor fearful expression.The latter let out a long sigh, knowing that things got out of control the moment he seized power from Martha, and now he was just tasting the bitter fruit of failure, and everything was irreversible.

As a veteran of the turmoil in the political arena, Emperor Pu hated him so much that he blatantly shouted: "If a nuclear explosion really happens, none of the chosen ones will be able to benefit from this melee.

Notify the 'fraternity' and 'low key club' liaisons.

They'd better dissuade the French, or I don't mind taking them with them.Anyway, I'm in an underground nuclear bunker, and a 300-megaton hydrogen bomb can't kill me. "

Hey... this is nuclear bundling.

But Ye Ruofu still poured cold water, "Your Excellency, you are currently only the deputy prime minister in charge of the economy, and you have not fully grasped the military power. Even if you have the military power, it is unrealistic for the Strategic Rocket Army to send a nuclear bomb to St. Petersburg."

Indeed, nuclear retaliation is to hit the enemy's forehead.Who would throw it at the second largest city with a population of several million?

The emperor really couldn't give such an order, his face turned blue and white after being stunned, and he could only walk into the nuclear war bunker deep underground in resentment.

At this moment, it wasn't long before Zhou Qingfeng entered the K13 underground military train station.In the central control room of the abandoned station, the electronic tube radio with an external antenna received a deterrent notice of the 'European Will'.

When the others were nervous and confused, Fuhrman approached Zhou Qingfeng and asked in a low voice, "What did you take from Savelli?"

Zhou Qingfeng shrugged, "After Savelli's death, the highest level of time and space authority he mastered fell into my hands temporarily."

The highest level of time and space authority is like the permanent seat of the United Nations. Only with it can it be called a "big hooligan" and has double veto power.

Zhou Qingfeng's level of time and space is not enough, just like China with limited strength in the 90s and [-]s, often had to abstain from voting in the general meeting.Compared with the other four that can vote 'for' or 'against', he can only protect himself.

If the French who control the "European will" lose this authority, they will end up in the status of Japan, Brazil, and Germany in the United Nations-the membership fee is not reduced, but they cannot effectively protect their own interests.

But a power can only have one highest authority, otherwise it will be separated.

At the beginning, the "Brotherhood" got two copies, and had to freeze one of them secretly in Juarez, Mexico.In the end, Zhou Qingfeng, who was running around, was taken advantage of.

This space-time authority is actually a hot potato.If the French don't get it back within 24 hours, the 'will to Europe' will disintegrate.

If Zhou Qingfeng fails to seal it up or hand it over to another selected person within 22 hours, this thing will be randomly assigned to a lucky or unlucky person, which will bring unpredictable situations.

When he was thinking about how to solve the current problem, Martha's voice suddenly entered his mind, "Victor, where are you?"

'Mind Search' is similar to a group chat on the Internet. It can find people, but it is not easy to determine the location of the other party.

Zhou Qingfeng didn't reply, Martha continued: "I'm in an underground fortification called D6 in Kalinin District, you'd better come here within five hours."

"Huh? Martha, shouldn't you hide well? What do you mean by revealing your position?" Zhou Qingfeng was very confused.

"Because a group of Frenchmen broke into my hiding place. There were dozens of people and several metal boxes. I think they really want to blow up the city of St. Petersburg."

Wait... Zhou Qingfeng felt that there were too many elements in these words, "The French broke into your hiding place. Did they find you?"

"No, I'm watching them."

"You think the metal box is a nuclear bomb?"

"It's supposed to be a small nuclear weapon. I can't think of anything else they'd take so seriously other than that."

"Why didn't you inform Emperor Pu?"

"I will not have any more cooperation with that traitor."

"What do you want from me?"

"I don't know where you are, but do you want to be blown up? The French probably got more than one nuke, and if they put one in every district of the city, you'd probably get killed too.

But as long as one of them is removed, at least our own area will be safe.After all, it is impossible for the French to get dozens or hundreds of nuclear bombs. "

As soon as Martha reminded him, Zhou Qingfeng was frightened into a cold sweat.

The Frenchman was really in a hurry, obviously planning to carry out an underground nuclear explosion.Compared with air nuclear explosions and surface nuclear explosions, underground nuclear explosions are like artificial earthquakes.

Since the explosive power is held underground, the damage range of the seismic wave will be larger.As long as there is a crack in the ground buildings and infrastructure, it will be over.

But Zhou Qingfeng is underground right now.When a nuclear explosion occurs, the underground structure is easily distorted.For example, once the explosion-proof door entering K13 is stuck, he is likely to be trapped and unable to get out.

Martha continued: "The number of these Frenchmen and their equipment make me a little troublesome. If you don't come to help, I will find another place to hide."

"Wait." Zhou Qingfeng took out the underground blueprint given by the World War II veteran, and was surprised to find... "D6? I'm in the Red Guard area, and this ghost place is less than five kilometers away from me."

The underground facilities in St. Petersburg are as dense as a cobweb, criss-crossing and varying in depth.It is impossible to search every corner to find the French in a short time.

If Zhou Qingfeng hadn't had the 'Land Warrior', it would have been difficult to break through just powering the explosion-proof doors that have lost the support of the power grid.There was no one else around him, so he could only discuss with Fuhrman.

The old man came up with an idea, "Since it's not convenient for us to go there, we might as well let Martha come over. She definitely doesn't know our current situation. If she can't come over immediately, I'm afraid there will be problems."

This is a seemingly risky but relatively safe approach.

Martha didn't object to this request, she just asked, "Where are you?"

"At platform K13."

"K13? An underground military train station? Are you also underground? The underground road network structure diagram in my hand shows that that place should be abandoned and closed. The two sides are blocked, so I can't get through."

"The D6 area you are in belongs to the personnel living area of ​​the underground fortification. Find a combat readiness maintenance passage marked 115, which can directly reach the K13 platform. This maintenance passage may be blocked, you have to find a way to open it"

Martha's mind link stopped for a while, and after about ten minutes, she asked again: "Victor, where did you get this information? The blueprints I got from the Municipal Engineering Department at a great price are not what you say casually." Tell me in detail."

"Have you found pit lane 115?"

"It really exists, and it hasn't been blocked. It's just that there are a lot of debris piled up in the passage. But there is no mark on the map in my hand. Wait for half an hour, and I will come soon."

After the communication was over, Zhou Qingfeng asked Aunt Ilya to turn off the lights in the central control room of the platform.Everyone prepared their weapons. He himself wore a 'Land Warrior', held an AK-74M, and aimed at the direction where Martha might appear.

About ten minutes later, the sound of footsteps came from the dark subway tracks. It was very slight, but it spread very far.Immediately afterwards, a faint light appeared in the darkness and quickly approached.

The 'Land Warrior' has its own thermal imager, and a red bright spot appears from a few hundred meters away, and it gradually turns into a human form.Martha came very quickly. Like Zhou Qingfeng, she had seen enhancements, and she could be said to be walking like flying.

When he got closer, Zhou Qingfeng could clearly see that the woman was wearing a Russian army winter combat uniform, holding a PKM machine gun with a strong flashlight strapped to it.She was not wearing a cap, but she was wearing a breathing mask.

Martha stopped suddenly when she got close to [-] meters, and said on the consciousness link: "Victor, stand up, I heard your movements."

It was old man Fuhrman's cough that gave him away.Zhou Qingfeng turned on the shoulder lights, making the dark track as bright as day, and said: "It's not convenient for me to move, come here by yourself."

Martha approached again, hearing the whirring of the ventilation fan, she took off the breathing mask and laughed 'wow', "Victor, this dress is good, you can always do something that is beyond my expectations Come on."

Facing Zhou Qingfeng in black armor, Martha circled around like Lilia.She looked at the other people in the team and laughed at herself: "There are more and more people around you, and they are better than me."

With the bonus of 'Land Warrior', Zhou Qingfeng can gain an overwhelming advantage in close combat and speed, so that he no longer has to worry about losing control of the situation.

Martha was able to come here in person, which also made the situation she told a little more believable.

"Tell me about those Frenchmen." Zhou Qingfeng asked.

"What can you say? They set up hundreds of small high-power radio stations to broadcast everywhere in the city, but apart from your name, they did not disclose their own information.

The media in the city publicized that this was terrorist psychological warfare, and announced that the police would definitely catch the suspect within 24 hours.The citizens were a little panicked, but there was nothing they could do.

As for the group of Frenchmen who broke into my hiding place, there were more than thirty of them, and they occupied an underground warehouse and held it firmly.

The entrance to the warehouse is small, and infrared-sensing anti-personnel mines are installed.The opponent considered the possibility of dealing with a strong attack.It is impossible for me to charge hard, there is no way to take them. "

While Martha was talking, Zhou Qingfeng handed her a few pages of hand-painted drawings, asking to point out the exact location occupied by the Frenchman.Martha frowned after reading it, and took out a stack of drawings from her backpack for comparison.

After the comparison, Martha frowned even more, "Victor, where did you get these hand-painted drawings? The drawings are quite professional, and some details are not even marked on the drawings of the Municipal Engineering Department."

"From the builders of these underground works."

Martha looked at the people behind Zhou Qingfeng, "Who is it? We need someone who is familiar with the underground environment now."

"Unfortunately, he died." Seeing Martha pointing out the location of the Frenchman, Zhou Qingfeng looked carefully at the blueprint, and whispered: "On my blueprint, this is not an underground warehouse, but a barracks."

It is difficult for ordinary people to imagine how much effort the great powers put into fighting a nuclear war.It was trying every means, digging holes in mountains, digging ground and building buildings at the expense of ten thousand dollars.

Many underground spaces are so large and well-equipped that they are like a city without sunlight.

The entrances and exits of the fortifications can even be driven in by tanks and planes. It is a basic operation to station tens of thousands of troops inside and provide food, drink and lazards, which is too trivial.

If it is a warehouse, it only needs to have an entrance and exit.But if it is a barracks, the necessary ventilation, power supply and water supply and drainage facilities are necessary, and there are a lot of auxiliary facilities.

After confirming the difference in the blueprints, Martha also realized the way to get close to the group of mysterious French guys, "It's ridiculous, those French guys bought the same batch of blueprints as me, and they all thought it was a strong warehouse.

It now appears that they chose the wrong place. "

Chapter 23 A good show

Underground of Kalinin district, d6 area.

The dark environment is like a deep cave, cold and silent.

This is more than 50 meters above the ground.On the horizontal plane, 50 meters is just a distance you can move with just a few strides.But underground, it represents insurmountable difficulties.

Bazel resisted the idea of ​​taking off his breathing mask, put the light of the emergency light as far as possible in front of his eyes, and tried his best to see the power wiring in his hand.

Area d6 is a small part of the underground fortifications, but it has not been abandoned.But after the disintegration of the Soviet Union, the troops stationed in Eastern Europe were withdrawing, and the poor soldiers at the grassroots level were starving to death. Who would station in such a ghostly place?

Not only is there no one underground, but the power supply facilities have also been cut off.

The wire in Bazel's hand was connected to a substation on the ground.All he had to do was turn on the ventilation system, because the cylinders of the breathing mask alone wouldn't last long.

But respirators bought on the black market are inferior.After entering the ground wearing a mask, Bazel noticed that the lenses inside the mask were fogging up.This obstructed his vision and made work very difficult.

"Bazel, how long will it take? It's just a connection. You've been tossing around for almost an hour." Henry, the leader of the team, walked over with a gun, his words full of dissatisfaction.
