The air raid, which was not over for a long time, made me very upset. After drinking tea for a while, I stood up and walked around.
Some of the disbanded soldiers went back to the tent to have a rest, some stood in small groups in the hall and chatted in a low voice. The whole subway station was very quiet.
Seeing me go by, the soldiers stopped talking and looked at me curiously. I just gave them a polite smile, but I didn't speak. I looked at the subway station.
The whole subway station is composed of three arched buildings. The platform has nine large arched openings on the marble wall next to the hall for passengers to enter and leave. The four corners of the hall are supported by square columns with three huge columns in the middle.
I was wandering in the hall when I caught a glimpse of the second lieutenant running down the steps at the entrance. He looked flustered, as if something had happened. So he quickly went to the place where the materials were stacked, trying to find out.
Approaching, I saw that the Lieutenant's face was black with smoke, and his uniform was covered with mud. He ran to the table and sat down on the chair, gasping, but speechless for a moment. Bukov poured a cup of tea and handed it to him. The second lieutenant took it and drank it. After drinking the tea, he put the cup on the table again, and then he said: "the German guy is crazy. The bomb fell down like rain and blew up the surrounding buildings into a sea of fire. As soon as I came out of the barricade, a bomb exploded about 20 meters away. Before I could make a response, I was thrown into a somersault
"You're not hurt, are you?" Bukov asked him with concern.
"It's OK. I just fell and didn't get hurt." The second lieutenant wiped his face with his sleeve, and then said happily, "fortunately, we are deep underground, and the German bomb can't fall here..."
Before I heard it, there was a terrible noise not far away, which scared me to sit down directly. With the sound of something falling to the ground, dust mixed with smoke came from the door of the subway platform, and the hall was filled with a strong smell of smoke.
"What's the matter?" Ramis got up from his chair and rushed to the platform with his gun. I was in a daze for a while. I saw bukov, the second lieutenant and grissa rushing forward, and then I ran after them.
As soon as I rushed onto the platform, I was immediately fascinated by the flying dust. Just as I opened my mouth to speak, I was choked by the brick ash that intruded into my mouth and nose and coughed violently.
When I stopped coughing and rubbed out the dust in my eyes, I could barely see the situation in front of me: a huge bomb was inserted between the two tracks, surrounded by broken masonry and cement falling from it. Bukov and Ramis stood on the platform like sculptures, holding flashlights and staring at the bomb falling from the sky.
Just as I held my breath and nervously thought about what to do, there was a scream behind me: "bomb! bomb! It's going to explode! "
With his shouts, the hall became noisy, and the soldiers who had been resting came one after another. When they crowded onto the platform and saw the bomb, they all took a breath of cold air.
Seeing that everyone is crowded here, I can't help getting upset. So many people are crowded here. In case of a bomb explosion, hundreds of people will be killed. So I cried out: "don't panic, spread out, don't surround here. Ramis, you go to organize everyone to go to the opposite platform to hide! " Ramis agreed, and immediately began to shout out for everyone to disperse.
Hearing my voice, bukov also woke up from the initial confusion. He also cooperated with the underground command: "everyone, listen to my command, evacuate and hide immediately. Lieutenant dornikov, please call the engineers immediately and ask them to send someone to dismantle the bomb. "
Just in the middle of the cry, his voice suddenly stopped and he looked straight at the entrance tunnel. I looked in the direction he was looking at, and saw six lights moving rapidly, accompanied by the sound of banging.
"Di... Di... Subway... Train?" Seeing this familiar sight, I stammered nervously: "where did the subway come from..."
"Damn it Lieutenant dornikov yelled: "isn't it ten minutes after the air raid, the subway will resume operation? Where did this subway train come from? "
"What to do?" "If the train doesn't stop and hit the bomb, we'll be finished," bukov said nervously
I looked at the location of the bomb. It's more than 20 meters away from the exit tunnel. If the train stops normally, it will definitely hit the bomb. Watching the train getting closer and closer, my heart became more and more flustered. Is considering whether regardless of the people on the train, only with the soldiers here to escape, less death is one.
Inadvertently, he turned his head and caught a glimpse of the red sleeve on the second lieutenant's arm. He pulled it off and thrust it into his hand. Then he yelled at the stunned Second Lieutenant: "put this sleeve on the flashlight, and then send a signal to the train to stop them."
My words made them wake up. Soldiers with sleeves took off their sleeves one after another and put them on the flashlight. They rushed to the entrance tunnel, shaking the flashlight desperately to send signals to the train.
Soon there was a screeching sound of train emergency braking in the distance. It seemed that the driver saw the emergency stop signal we sent out and responded in time. Watching the train stop two or three meters away from the bomb, we were relieved. The long subway train stops on the platform, and the light coming from it suddenly makes the light of the platform become sufficient. As soon as the car stopped, the door of the bridge opened. The middle-aged driver in a short sleeve sky blue uniform and a boat hat jumped out and asked aloud, "what's the matter? Why send an emergency stop signal? " Bukov went up to the driver, pointed to the terrible bomb in the middle of the track and said, "a bomb broke through the roof and fell down." Then he told the driver, "I'm captain bukov of the fighter battalion. I'm in charge of the defense here. You immediately inform the passengers to get off the bus by radio, and our soldiers are responsible for evacuation to a safe place. " The driver promised and went back to the cab. When the door was opened, maybe the driver informed us in advance that the passengers were not in a panic. Instead, they got out of the car orderly and followed the soldiers into the spacious hall. Lieutenant dornikov went to call the engineers, and captain bukov remained on the platform to watch the bomb. I'm afraid there are passengers on the train who haven't got off yet, so I specially went into the car for inspection. Russia's subway cars are separated one by one, so we can't walk from the beginning to the end. Every time we finish a tour of a car, we have to walk out and enter again. When I got to the fifth carriage, I suddenly saw a comic book on the ground, so I bent down and picked it up. Read the cover, is a blonde boy holding a lovely white dog, the book called "Tintin in the Soviet Union.". Seeing the name, I can't help but wonder, does Herge have this work? It's not piracy, is it? Just about to open the book and have a look, I suddenly heard a timid voice saying: "Comrade female commander, this book is mine." I looked back and saw that it was a little boy in a white shirt. He looked five or six years old. I handed the book to him, touched his head with a smile, said: "children, it's too dangerous here, take the book and go back to my mother quickly!" With a promise, he hopped away with the book. I watched with a smile as he left, came out of the fifth car and went into the sixth car. In this car, I saw a baby carriage near the door. I can't help shaking my head, heart said this when the mother is really careless, leave even the child's car, also don't feel tired holding the child. After patrolling the last carriage, I was about to leave when I saw an open newspaper on the seat beside the door. I picked it up and wanted to see if there was any news and if there was any report on where the German army had been fighting? I didn't expect to see the first news headline, which made me almost fall to the ground. It read: "two stowaways were killed on the spot yesterday when they tried to cross the Berlin Wall.". The Berlin Wall is a product of the cold war. How can anyone know about it? Am I blinded? I rubbed my eyes and reread the headline of the newspaper. It was what I saw just now. I'm not dreaming, am I? I bit my lip hard, and the instant pain told me that what I saw was true. I looked carefully at the masthead, trying to find out when the newspaper came out. When I saw the date, "July 23, 1975", I almost stopped breathing and fell into my seat. God, what's going on? I was staring at the date in the newspaper and my brain almost stopped thinking. I'm just a passer-by. Suddenly, I'm a passer-by of a train. What's the matter with the world? No wonder the driver and the little boy I saw were wearing summer clothes“ Comrade commander, where are you? " Bukov's cry came from the outside. I quickly stabilized myself, threw the newspaper on my seat, stood up, went to the door, and asked calmly, "I'm here, comrade captain. What's the matter? Are the comrades of the engineers here? "“ No, "bukov ran to me panting and whispered," Comrade commander, I think something is wrong. " He patted the shell of the car with his hand. "There's something wrong with this train. Usually the subway trains are made up of four cars, with only four cars, but this train has six. Also, I suspect that these people are of unknown origin. It's winter now, and those who get off the bus are still wearing summer clothes. "“ OK, "I know the origin of these people, interrupted him and said faintly," come on, let's go to see these people of unknown origin. "
