The sudden outbreak of SARS almost brought the entire world to a standstill.

The construction of the Yangtze River Bridge is very important. The investment is so huge that it cannot be stopped easily. Either the materials cannot be transported or the personnel cannot be in place. Although the work has not stopped, it is almost like a stoppage.

On the normally busy river, there are now few boats in sight.

There are also no cars on the shore roads.

All Han Xiangning can do now is follow the requirements of his superiors, take care of his own people, keep an eye on his own door, check each construction area, and confirm that there are no outsiders and no one has a cold, fever or cough, and there is nothing else to do.

Exercise has become the main theme of these engineering command staff.

The venue on the shore is large enough. Some people play shuttlecock, some play badminton, and some skip rope. She originally wanted to go back to the dormitory on the barge and take a nap, but instead she was pulled over by her female colleagues from the headquarters to exercise together, playing badminton until she was sweating profusely.

"Han Bureau, phone number!"

"Here we come." Han Xiangning handed the racket to Xiaoyun, leaned over and picked up the towel hanging on a chair, wiped the sweat and said with a smile: "You go on, I'll answer the phone first."

"Bureau Han, keep your word and come back after answering the phone."

"OK."

Han Xiangning smiled and quickly walked into the communication room of the prefabrication site.

My phone is low on battery, plug it in here to charge.

She thanked the guard in the communication room, unplugged the charging cable, picked up her mobile phone, and walked out of the communication room. She sat on a bench and basked in the sun. She held up her mobile phone and asked lazily: "Uncle Ge, why did you remember to call me?" Is there something wrong?"

The Hong Kong Industrial Park has also been shut down these days.

Although superiors require that economic development should be carried out while preventing and controlling the epidemic, the epidemic in Hong Kong and the mainland has directly affected import and export trade. Enterprises in the park have fewer and fewer orders, and even if there are orders, it is difficult to make goods. Export sales.

Nowadays, everyone talks about SARS in a disgraceful way. The general environment has changed. There is nothing we can do about it.

Lao Ge has nothing to do these days. He can only sit in his luxurious office drinking tea, watching TV, and calling relatives and friends to chat.

He picked up the remote control, turned down the TV volume, and then leaned over to the phone that was on speakerphone and said, "It's okay, I just don't feel reassured. I called to ask."

"What are you worried about?"

"It's an epidemic. Zhang Erxiao just called and said that someone in Donghai has also been diagnosed! Your parents, your mother and Han Han should pay attention. It's best to come back to avoid SARS. We don't have SARS in Binjiang."

"They would like to come back, but where can they get it now?"

"Can't come back?"

Han Xiangning explained helplessly: "I called them in the morning and they said that although the kindergarten is on holiday, the teachers ask the children to stay at home and not to go out of the market in the near future. If they go out of the market, they must report to the school. Besides, if they are at this juncture, When we come back, Binjiang will be in trouble."

"That's right. It's better not to move around at this time."

"We have several engineers here from Donghai. They just don't want to cause trouble to the headquarters, so they can only work by phone or online."

"Working by phone or online?"

Although the epidemic is terrible, it can also promote the development of science and technology.

Han Xiangning looked in the direction of the engineering headquarters and smiled: "Our headquarters and the three major construction units are all connected to the Internet. The day before yesterday, we invited a telecommunications company to come and build a multimedia conference room for remote meetings on the Internet. We also installed six The video phone on the Internet is the same as the video phone in the isolation hospital reported on the TV news.”

Lao Ge asked curiously: "Will it cost a lot of money?"

"I don't know. I'm not responsible for logistics."

"Where did Xianyu go? I can't get through on my cell phone. Has he contacted you?"

Han Yu "missed" and had been "missing and out of contact" for nearly a month.

We have never been able to contact him. We only know that he was deployed by the army to perform classified tasks and was probably related to the navy.

Han Xiangning was also worried, but it was useless. He could only pretend to smile and said: "I can't get through either, and he hasn't contacted me. He only knows that there is an urgent mission in the army, and Commander Yu from the East China Sea Base called me personally. , reassured me that nothing would happen to him. Commander Chen of the Military Division also called me yesterday and told me about the confidential mission Saner was going to perform. He asked me if I had any difficulties at home. If there was a military division, he would help solve it. ."

"Isn't it because of SARS?" Lao Ge asked worriedly.

"No, he is very well and cannot be infected. Besides, he was quarantined for seventeen days before going on any confidential mission, and he didn't notice any physical discomfort."

"It's fine if you're not infected with SARS, but you can't be infected. From the news, this disease is really difficult to treat."

"He definitely didn't get it."

While they were chatting, the announcer on the TV suddenly broadcast a piece of news very heavily.

"Dear viewers, this is broadcast from Xinhua News Agency BJ on May 2, 2003. According to information provided by the Navy, recently, a conventionally powered submarine of our Navy crashed due to mechanical failure while conducting training in our territorial waters east of Neichangshan. Unfortunately, all 70 officers and soldiers were killed. The Military Commission, the headquarters and the leaders of the relevant troops attached great importance to the handling of the accident, expressed their deep condolences to the martyrs who died, and expressed cordial condolences to their relatives. The submarine has now been towed back to the port, and the aftermath is being properly handled..."

Looking at the pictures on the news and thinking of the submarine rescue and life-saving projects carried out by Han Yu's reserve team, Lao Ge was stunned, and then said eagerly: "Ning Ning, hurry up and watch the CCTV news channel!"

"What news are you watching?"

"The news being broadcast may have something to do with Xianyu, and Xianyu may have gone there!"

"Where have you gone?"

"You'll know just by looking at it!"

Han Xiangning wanted to know where her junior had gone. After hearing what Lao Ge said in such a hurry, she quickly returned to the communication room of the prefabrication site, said hello to the guard, and switched the black and white TV in the communication room to the news channel.

If you don’t know it, you will be shocked when you see it. The announcer on the TV is broadcasting a message of condolences from Chairman W of the Chinese Y Army!

"Relatives of the officers and soldiers killed in the Navy's submarine No. 361: I am shocked to learn that all the officers and soldiers in the Navy's submarine No. 361 were unfortunately killed while performing a training mission. I express my deep condolences and extend my cordial condolences to you. The officers and soldiers of the Navy's submarine No. 361 bear in mind the sacred mission entrusted by the party and the people. mission, faithfully performed military duties, and made important contributions to national defense and military modernization.

They unfortunately died in the line of duty and sacrificed their lives for the country, which was a heavy loss to the People's Navy. They are indeed good sons of the people and loyal guards of the motherland. Their heroic names and achievements will never be forgotten by the motherland and people..."

An accident occurred on a submarine, and 70 officers and soldiers died!

Those were 70 living lives, directly related to 70 families. Han Xiangning couldn't believe it was true, and was stunned for a moment.

At this time, the phone rang again.

Looking down at the caller ID, it turned out to be the caller from Binjiang Development Zone Armed Forces Minister Feng Qingshan.

Han Xiangning quickly pressed the call button, and as soon as she raised the phone to her ear, she heard Feng Qingshan say solemnly on the other end of the phone: "Bureau Han, have you watched the news?"

"I'm reading it."

"Your Korean team may have gone to the North Sea Fleet. I'm really afraid of what will happen. My submarine rescue and rescue project had just made some progress when something big happened. 70 officers and men were sacrificed at once, which means that all the officers and men on the boat were killed. !”

"Minister Feng, is the news talking about nuclear submarines?"

"Conventional, not nuclear submarines."

"How could so many commanders and combatants be sacrificed if it wasn't a nuclear submarine?" Han Xiangning couldn't help but think of the Russian Navy's Kursk.

Feng Qingshan clearly remembered that before the Spring Festival, a working group from the Navy Headquarters came to the regiment to inspect the progress of the submarine rescue and rescue project. Staff Wu from the headquarters once asked two submarine captains from the front-line troops at the dinner table, including the Development Zone Reserve Battalion and Han Yu. Reserve officers, do they feel at ease?

The two captains were very moved at the time and truly regarded the development zone reservists as comrades who could be trusted with their lives.

However, less than half a year later, something happened to submarine No. 361. Among the two captains who came to the reserve camp in the development zone at that time, one was from the North Sea Fleet.

When his comrades were killed, the development zone reserve battalion, which specialized in submarine rescue and rescue, failed to provide any help. Feng Qingshan was heartbroken and choked up and said: "As long as it is a submarine, it is very dangerous."

Han Xiangning could understand Old Feng's mood and said after a moment of silence: "Minister Feng, are you sure that Salted Fish may have gone to the North Sea Fleet?"

"Our reserve camp in the development zone specializes in submarine rescue and life-saving. When such an accident occurs, it is normal for the superiors to ask the Korean Bureau to go there. They may even want to use this method to let us accumulate experience in submarine rescue and life-saving. After all, no one has ever done it before. Never encountered it.”

"The cost of this lesson is too high."

"Yes, I just called Commander Wang to ask for instructions and report, and I will convene a meeting with the entire battalion in the afternoon."

Han Xiangning reminded: "There is an epidemic outside. Is it appropriate to gather at this time?"

"What is the epidemic? No matter how important epidemic prevention and control is, how many lives of dozens of comrades are important?" Feng Qingshan took a deep breath, clutched his cell phone and said: "Han Bureau, do you know what the head of the East China Sea Fleet said about our development zone reserves? Camp?"

Han Xiangning calmed down and asked in a low voice: "What did the chief say?"

Feng Qingshan said solemnly: "The leader said that our battalion has a great responsibility. He said that we carry the lives of the frontline submarine force officers and soldiers on one shoulder, and the property of the people of the motherland on the other shoulder. He hopes that our battalion can form combat effectiveness as soon as possible."

"I understand, but we must also pay attention to prevention and control."

"I know."

"Hang up first. I want to call Director Feng. Director Feng is well-informed. Director Feng will definitely know whether Xianyu went to the North Sea Fleet."

"Okay, Director Han, if you have any news, remember to tell me."

"Okay, I will inform you as soon as there is any news."

Han Xiangning walked out of the communication room of the prefabrication field. She was not in the mood to exercise with her female colleagues in the headquarters. She returned to the office on the second floor of the public security barge and went to the door to dial the old leader's phone number.

What made her even more shocked and surprised was that Director Feng whispered before she could finish her words: "Xianyu is indeed there. He was urgently transferred by the headquarters to participate in the accident investigation. Jiang Zxi and Hu Zxi both went, At this moment, Xianyu and other members of the investigation team are reporting the progress of the investigation to the two Chairman Z."
