Awakening

For any city, the power system is vital. If there is a large-scale blackout in a city, there are various unpredictable variables.

Nine years ago, the largest power outage in history occurred in the northeastern United States, eight central and western states, and Ontario, Canada. According to preliminary statistics, nearly 50 million people in important cities such as New York, Detroit, Cleveland, Ottawa, and Toronto in North America are affected. The most affected are manufacturing, catering, retail North, and aviation. Most of the economic activities are also There is a stagnation. Direct or indirect economic losses amount to as much as $30 billion.

Just tonight, major cities such as California, Los Angeles, Pittsburgh, Washington, Philadelphia, and New York have once again experienced large-scale power outages.

Although the power outage was smaller than that of a few years ago, when these important American cities fell into the dark, some abnormal sounds began.

An hour after the power outage, residents living on Fifth Avenue in New York were the first to hear gunshots. When they hadn’t reacted, there was a more unexpected explosion.

Not only New York, but also residents of several other blackout cities have heard the constant sound of gunfire and explosions.

Among the major streets, large stores were forcibly broken by heavy objects, bank tellers were savage by gasping mobs, and shops selling gold jewelry were the favorite of greedy people. In order to knock open the door of a store or shop, some people even drive directly.

No one knows why those people will become like this, and only a few people living in a large mall or near the bank are faintly seen, after a power outage. It was not long before the mall and the bank teller suddenly exploded without any warning. After the explosion, the door of the big shopping mall was exploded, and the cash placed in the bank teller machine exploded like scattered leaves. Seeing the cash on the floor, and the big malls that can go in and out, many people are starting to go crazy.

They began to madly grab the gold on the ground, or they poured into the mall to grab the valuable goods inside.

Not only that, but as more and more big shopping malls, big stores and bank teller machines are exploded, the frenzied emotions spread quickly among the crowd like unknown viruses. Not only pedestrians on the street, but even more and more ordinary citizens ran out of their homes. Join the ranks of snatching. Some men are beginning to destroy other shops and shops that have not been affected by the explosion when they are not satisfied with the number of snatches.

Under the influence of the crazy herd mentality, more and more people are participating in the destruction and looting.

In a dark environment around. All those who take part in the robbing have the illusion that no one knows who they are. The behavior has been self-righteously concealed, so the dark side of human beings is superficially superficial.

So in the end, the greedy crowds ruined the store like thieves.

Ordinary people are still like the North, and the gangs who are usually active in the dark are more like fish at this time. Some people even used the car to open the door of the weapons store, and then rushed in to get the guns and ammunition inside.

The man with the gun in his hand began to carry out an alternative robbery against the ordinary people who plundered, or simply broke the doors of other stores with guns or cars to carry out more efficient looting.

But it didn't take long. Countless police cars are gradually driving to the central areas of the city for suppression.

The constant whistling of the sirens scared the ordinary people who were looting the cash of the goods, and they immediately fled.

Under the guidance of aerial helicopters. Dozens of police cars successfully drove and surrounded hundreds of men with guns.

"You have been surrounded, and immediately put down your arms and surrender." A police officer shouted loudly from the helicopter with a loudspeaker.

Looking at the police car in front of the red lights, the men surrounded were afraid. Although many of them are gangs or marginalized people, it does not mean that they are not afraid of death.

"I repeat, you have been surrounded, and immediately put down your arms and surrender, otherwise we will shoot." There was another warning from the helicopter.

Finally, someone started to lay down his arms and raised his hands. Seeing this, other people have to follow the weapon.

Seeing more and more people put down their guns, the police who were armed around were finally relieved.

But just when everyone thought that things were over. A dozen objects with only the size of the fist and the fireworks at the tail sneaked into the helicopter in the air at a very fast speed.

"Boom, a loud noise, the helicopter suddenly caught fire in the air and exploded, and finally fell on the two police cars below, causing a more intense explosion.

The explosion that occurred without warning made everyone stunned. Many police officers standing nearby have not had time to react. The shock wave that had already been exploded was thrown out, and some people were killed by fire and debris on the spot.

When everyone felt that they were having a nightmare, suddenly a few black and semi-elliptical things flew over from the group of gunmen to the police car.

A policeman who had just climbed from the ground immediately turned pale when he saw a strange object that fell in front of him.

"Boom, bang..." A few huge explosions rang in the dense police car.

The men in front of the guns were all unbelievable to see that the police car surrounded by them had been overturned or had a chain explosion, and that the police had many people who had been smashed into the air or fled.

The flames of the explosion and the hot air waves turned this into a purgatory.

After the explosion, there were even more dramatic changes. The police who were not affected by the explosion began to shoot at the gunmen in front.

Seeing that there were constant shots downside, other men instinctively fled or fired back.

No one realized why it would be like this. After a series of explosions, everyone lost their normal thinking. Everyone wants to destroy the enemy in front of them in order to survive. As the firepower of both sides continued to strengthen, many men who were looking for a place to cover and fired less, the police with less firepower were desperately seeking support from the headquarters.

Because of the shortage of police officers, the predation in many areas continues. The crossfire between the gunmen and the police has become more and more fierce, and more and more policemen have joined the ranks of the crossfire.

Gunshots, explosions, can be heard everywhere. The whole city seems to be a dark battlefield. Everyone is crazy, and the whole city is crazy.

This is not only a case in the city, but similar incidents of mass looting and street crossfire have occurred in other cities where power outages have occurred.

Except for the lights, the fire and the strange light that occasionally flashes. The city is still dark, but it is not calm at all.

The battlefield is full of battlefields. The reporters who went to interview could not believe the scenes like the scenes of war.

"Can you tell me. What happened? Speak!" The thickened stack of reports on the exposed cadre of the blue ribs went to the face of the lieutenant colonel, the bureaucrat and several other members of the palace. The faces of several officials were gray, and no one dared to speak.

Seeing this, the colonel was even more angry, just about to attack, and suddenly, the phone on his desk rang.

"Who is it? Yes, I am sorry, I don't know if it is you. I just reprimanded my subordinates, please forgive me for just speaking."

"I know, I will arrange the place according to your instructions."

After the line is closed. The colonel stared at them coldly and said, "Give me all out. Immediately."

When they went out, the colonel immediately picked up the phone and dialed it up.

At around 2 in the morning, the chaos of the city did not get the slightest relief. The gunshots and explosions that sounded from time to time could still be heard everywhere. At this time, there are no more people in the police stations in each district, and all of them have already participated in the crackdown. However, compared with the people who participated in the looting and fighting, the police are still at a considerable disadvantage in terms of number, so they have not been able to control the situation. Coupled with the darkness around, it increases the difficulty of control. The police did not dare to send helicopters to hover over the air because several helicopters had been hit by rockets that suddenly flew out of a corner of the street and exploded.

However, when a group of soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms and armed forces entered the cities in batches. The situation has suddenly changed dramatically.

Under the powerful firepower and well-trained joint attack, the number of gunmen and the gunmen who had a slight advantage in the fire immediately fled. And the people who looted everywhere also got an effective battle. Many people, when they were surrounded by soldiers wearing camouflage uniforms, stood up and raised their hands and surrendered.

In Dover, not far from Philadelphia, there is a tens of miles of bays and nature reserves in the south. And here in the north of the reserve. There are ten military bases that are not conspicuous but have a large view.

One-fifth of the soldiers sent to Philadelphia to suppress the riots came out of the base. At the Dover Air Force Base, which is less than 100 kilometers from this military base, it is responsible for transporting military personnel from other areas to help suppress the use of transport planes.

"How is the situation now?" In the basement office of the military base, a lieutenant-level man sat in a chair and asked the young adjutant standing in front. The young adjutant immediately replied: "Reporting the general, just every team leader with the third team replied, the central area of ​​Philadelphia and the city have been successfully controlled by us, and most of the looted people were arrested by the local police.

"How is the situation between Major General White and Lieutenant General Hans?"

"The army of Major General White has just entered the first and second districts five minutes ago and is in the process of suppression. The army of Lieutenant General Hans is still on the transport plane and it is estimated that it will take 15 minutes to arrive."

Lieutenant General sneered. "I really don't know what the police are doing. I want to use our army to help suppress it. How many people will be killed or injured in the end, it will not be our business."

The adjutant said: "General, this riot has happened very strangely. In addition to the riots in Los Angeles in 1992, the United States has never had such a serious riot."

Lieutenant General nodded. "Maybe this riot is more serious than the Los Angeles riots. I suspect that this riot is caused by someone behind the scenes."

"Does the general think that terrorists are doing it?"

"It is very likely that this is the case. After all, the enemy of the United States is too much. But this is the work of the intelligence department. It has nothing to do with us. We only need to execute the order."

Seeing a little tired look in the eyes of Lieutenant General, the adjutant did not say anything, so he retraced him. After all, all of them were awakened by the phone in the middle of the night.

After the adjutant went out, the lieutenant could no longer hold back the heavy sleepiness and went down to the sofa next to him. I didn't know how long I slept, and he was suddenly awakened by a strong knock on the door. After opening his eyes, he found a darkness around him.

"General, General Matt." The adjutant still yelled outside while knocking at the door. Lieutenant groped into the doorway in the dark. After opening the door, the adjutant was very excited to say: "General, our base was attacked"

"What are you talking about?" Lieutenant could not believe his ears.

"General, our base was really attacked. The other side is a group of mysterious black people. We don't know how they came in. They blew up our generators and backup power supply, and now the base is in a full power outage."

Lieutenant calmed down and asked: "How many people are there?"

"I don't know, there are more than 300 conservative estimates. Everyone has strong weapons on their hands. The gates of the 3rd and 2nd districts are forcibly opened by them with rockets. And from the fluency of their actions, they should also wear them. A night vision device is available."

“How many people are there in our base now?”

"Because most people have gone to the towns and cities to riot, now there are less than 200 combatants in the base, and the rest are logistics personnel, about 50. Those black people are now attacking in the basement direction."

Lieutenant General was surprised. "Now I will inform everyone to concentrate in the basement. I must stay there and never let them enter the third floor of the basement. I will immediately seek outside the base.

The vice president said with a sad face: "General, we can't ask for help now, because those people have successfully occupied the communication room on the second floor and the arsenal on the first floor. I just tried to signal for help, but the signal is emitted outside. The devices have been destroyed by them and there is no way to signal them. They are clearly aware of our communication methods and the location of the communication facilities."

When he heard him, Lieutenant General was shocked. If all this was true, they were completely isolated. This is obviously a sneak attack with a well-planned plan.

After a while, Lieutenant said in the darkness: "No matter what happens, you must hold the last floor of the underground. You must not let them enter. Since the communication facilities cannot be used, we must make a clear explosion." This should attract the attention of others. Ok, let's go." After that, he and the adjutant walked out of the room.
