rebirth of change

The capital of the southern country is in the south of Zrenjanin, about the same distance as Timisoara. The road is full of low mountain and forest landforms. Under the joint impact of the Danube and Tamish River, you can still see it along the way. To several vast fertile fields.The crops in the field are growing vigorously under the irrigation of abundant water. From a distance, they are green and lush.It's just that if you take a closer look, you can find that a lot of weeds have grown between the crops in the field.Now that the country is in crisis, and their own destiny and life are in jeopardy, how can farmers have the mood to take care of those crops carefully.

The railway bridge and highway bridge over the Tamish River have been broken, and Chen Kangjie and the others are still walking on a deserted path.In fact, there is still a railway from Zrenjanin to the capital that is open. On the one hand, it has to detour to the east and cross the canal twice, which doubles the distance. On the other hand, the train has been suspended. The southern authorities It is impossible to run a train for them.

The reason why the railway is still connected, but the train stopped is because the southern country does not want to cause additional losses, so it simply shows weakness to NATO.At the same time, it can be regarded as a kind of precaution. If there is a temporary emergency need, it can also be used to transport troops or equipment. If the railway is still busy, or NATO wants to suppress the southern government, this detoured main railway line may be given to If it is destroyed, the loss outweighs the gain.

During this period of time, the southern country has not yet entered the rainy season, and the sky is clear every day. Sitting in the car, Chen Kangjie is full of thoughts. It is ironic that people cannot live and work in peace and contentment in such a fertile land and such a clear sky.

After passing Zrenjanin, Chen Kangjie could clearly feel that the towns he passed had suffered much more damage from the war. You could see the wreckage of many military vehicles on the road. Wreckage piled up under the ridge, and some barrels were broken.Saifu Kailin has also basically become a ruin, and it is difficult to see a complete building. On the road leading to the city, there are glaring craters left by shell explosions everywhere.

Around noon, Chen Kangjie and the others safely arrived at Pancevo, the eastern gate of the southern capital. This is the most important town to the east of the southern capital. Two railways entering the capital converge here, and three roads converge here.

As soon as you arrive in Pancevo, you will see many scars. As the east gate of the capital, Pancevo not only has a relatively complete industrial foundation, but also a relatively large military camp.Under normal circumstances, the urban population living here is 6 people, and 12 people if including the suburbs. However, according to the Southern Red Cross officials who accompanied Chen Kangjie along the way, the number of people staying in Pancevo is less than 3 people.

Chen Kangjie knows why there are less than 3 people. Pancevo was originally a transportation hub, and there is a river port on the Danube River. Industries include oil refining, oil processing, aircraft, automobile and motor manufacturing, wood processing, textiles, glass, etc.However, the shadow of industrial production is completely invisible now. The oil refinery, oil processing plant, motor manufacturing plant, automobile manufacturing plant and other enterprises have all become ruins. Even the road checkpoint that Chen Kangjie and the others passed by has completely collapsed. On the simple Danube bridge built by the engineers, the busy river port was empty, but two small warships turned into lighthouses.

The road bridge connecting Pancevo to the capital can only see straight piers still standing in the beautiful Danube River. The bridge deck is no longer there. You don’t have to think about it.

Looking at the quiet and blue river, Chen Kangjie thought of "The Blue Danube" written in 1866 by the famous Austrian composer Johann Strauss Jr., known as the "King of Waltz". The full name should be "Beautiful Blue Waltz by the Danube", and the title of the song is taken from the repetition of the last line of each paragraph in a poem by the poet Carl Beck: "You are sentimental, you are young, beautiful, gentle and kind, like a minefield The gold glistens, and true love wakes there, by the Danube, by the beautiful blue Danube. Sweet flowers soothe the shadows and wounds of my heart, and the barren bushes still bloom, and the nightingale sings, By the Danube, by the beautiful blue Danube."

The music expresses the softness, beauty, elegance and dignity of the Danube River. Just listening to the music can remind people of the scene of carefree boating on the Danube River, as if the spring is full of spring and refreshing.Although this world-famous song, known as the second national anthem of Austria, was written about the section of the Danube in Vienna, the listeners will not be limited by the region. In people's imagination, the entire Danube should be so magnificent and varied.It's a pity that Chen Kangjie felt a kind of desolation by the river, the mother of Europeans. The pieces of golden light refracted by the river water seemed to be countless teardrops.The Danube seems to be weeping, grieving, for the countless people it has nurtured.

Between Pancevo and the southern capital, relief camps have been set up for poor people whose homes have been destroyed.The blue tents were set up in a mess in the field, just like the current southern country.

Seeing the convoy of the International Red Cross passing by, crowds of people poured out of the rescue camps on the roadside. They hoped that the convoy could stop and distribute the items it carried to them.It's a pity that they were disappointed. The convoy didn't stop here, but went in and headed towards the capital city.These expectant people could only stand on the side of the road and pay attention to the convoy under the support of the military and police.

Chen Kangjie really wanted to stop, especially when he saw those children with blank expressions and scattershot eyes.Obviously, the children here are not as optimistic as those in Zrenjanin, and perhaps there are some lost relatives around them.Under the blow of grief, it is difficult to put a smile on their faces.These children may not yet understand that their homes will be destroyed in this way.Even in their sleep, they would be woken up by the violent explosion and the flames.

It's a pity that Chen Kangjie couldn't act alone on the way. Besides, even if he stopped, so what?Can he stop this from happening?Can it change their lives instantly?Can you really give them confidence?Everything is unknown, everything is unknown.His sympathy can only be loaded, and he can move forward along the rolling of the wheel. In front, there are more victims.

Entering the southern capital, the scene made Chen Kangjie even more shocking.It seems that the capital of the southern country is no longer a colorful city, everything is gray, even though the bright sun is still hanging in the sky.Ruins and broken walls can be seen everywhere, and there are scattered rubble everywhere.It was not winter, but many people were wrapped in coats or quilts curled up in the corner of the roadside.In the distance, there were two puffs of black smoke desperately flying towards the sky, as if they were going to use their anger to blacken the unfair blue sky.Chen Kangjie knew that it must be somewhere that was bombed and the gang hadn't been extinguished yet.

The continuous bombing has seriously affected the process and efficiency of fire fighting. Chen Kangjie even imagined whether the fire police in the city can still work normally?

The southern capital is a little different from other European cities. Although they all look quaint, the buildings preserved in other European cities are generally dominated by a certain architectural form and modern architecture, while the southern capital is Not the same, its architectural style is very different.The shadow of oriental architecture can be seen in the whole city, including small towns in Central Europe and a large number of modern buildings.The architecture of the [-]th century is basically the style of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The buildings of the early [-]th century have strong French, British and Russian flavors. The houses built in the middle of this century are full of medieval and Moravian styles. , in the old city, what you see is basically Neo-Baroque architecture and Neo-Renaissance architecture. architecture.It can be said that the capital of the southern country can host the World Architecture Expo. Unfortunately, these beautiful buildings do not emit their unique brilliance at this time. None of the pedestrians on the street is in the mood to stop and appreciate the beauty of the design of these buildings.

On the way to Nikolai Pasic Square, Chen Kangjie saw that the government building, Usce building, Avala TV tower and other iconic buildings were almost completely destroyed.

Nikolai Pasic Square is the central square of the city. Although many homeless people have already occupied this place as a place of shelter, the International Red Cross still intends to place their work stage here.

The convoy with the eye-catching logo of the International Red Cross attracted many people to follow along the way, and when they arrived at Nikolai Pasic Square, they were even more surrounded.It is true that many people knew that they could get precious supplies by following them, but many young people obviously came for Chen Kangjie.

Due to the destruction of the Avala TV Tower and the bombing of the TV station, it is difficult to watch TV in the southern country, but the radio can still be heard. The news that Chen Kangjie is coming to the southern country has already spread from neighboring countries, perhaps for To encourage the people, the news was broadcast on the radio two days in advance.

Standing at the door of the car, Chen Kangjie could no longer see the ancient buildings around the square. He was already surrounded by countless young people holding the national flag of the southern country. These people not only shouted Chen Kangjie's name, but also shouted this patriotic slogan. There is no trace of surrender on his body.

For the safety of Chen Kangjie and the others, the southern government sent a troop here to maintain order, and the local city officials also appeared here. The crowds were still pouring in from all directions of the city, as if a grand riot was about to begin here. party-like.
