"Qingtang?" Ye Han said in surprise: "It's not an underground city?"
Qingtang is one of the largest cities in the northwest region. The defense system there is very complete. It is one of the largest ground resettlement areas in the northwest region. It is indeed a good place.
"No." Wu Han said, "The dug underground city is full. Where can we find an underground city for them? Qingtang is willing to accept so many people. It is already very good."
Ye Han immediately looked at the map and calculated the scale silently: "The straight-line distance from East No. 9 Base to Qingtang is no less than two thousand kilometers. The actual distance is more than three thousand kilometers. Even if these insect swarms are defeated, the distance outside will be
The Stars will definitely have to send more insect swarms to get people across safely... it's difficult!"
Wu Han said: "It's easy to get your turn? Don't think about it, where are you now? After the evacuation of East No. 9, there are still five underground cities, and the sea level is still rising. The underground cities that need to be evacuated now are
Not much, but with the current melting rate of glaciers, at least 30 to 50 underground cities will have to be evacuated in the next few years. Think about it, how many people will that be!"
Ye Han couldn't help but take a breath of cold air.
Underground cities vary in size and carrying capacity. The most can accommodate hundreds of thousands of people, and the least can only accommodate a few thousand people. On average, each underground city has 50,000 people. If forty underground cities need to be relocated, then
That’s a full two million people!
Fortunately, most of the underground cities were built in the central and western regions. If they were all built in coastal areas... Haha, Ye Han didn't even dare to think about how he could relocate hundreds of millions of people.
Migration is next, the most important thing is where to move.
The central and western regions are not as developed as the coastal areas, and there is little pressure to absorb millions of people. If 100 million people really moved there, just eating, drinking and urinating would be a big problem that cannot be solved.
Thinking of this, an idea suddenly flashed in Ye Han's mind. Only more than 30,000 people were evacuated this time. Maybe the higher-ups deliberately chose the base with the smallest population. The purpose was not just to move people to Qingtang, but maybe there were other bases.
Base tours are an idea to gain experience for evacuating more bases in the future.
Although Ye Han has been promoted to lieutenant general, he does not have much power. The superiors will not ask for his opinion on how to make arrangements, and he has no ability to interfere in the decisions above. The only thing he can do is to handle every decision handed down from the superiors.
Do all tasks well and minimize losses as much as possible.
Perhaps because it was not intuitive, Wu Han clicked on the conference table again and replaced it with a new map: "This is the map after the global glaciers melt. The sea level has risen by 66 meters, and most coastal areas will be destroyed.
If the sea water submerges, the northern capital will turn into a coastal city. Can you tell me how many underground cities will have to be evacuated by that time?"
Ye Han looked at the map, his eyes blurred: "Is this true?"
"It's absolutely true." Wu Han said, "It's very shocking to make it based on the altitude, isn't it?"
Ye Han smiled bitterly: "Aliens aren't so crazy, are they? If all the glaciers in the North and South Poles melt, how high will the temperature get?"
Wu Handao: "Do you dare to say that aliens are not crazy? Do you know how high they want to raise the temperature?"
Ye Han smiled bitterly again: "I dare not say it!"
How much would the global temperature need to rise to melt all the glaciers in the North and South Poles?
He doesn't know what the answer is, but he knows that the lowest temperature in the world occurs in Antarctica!
Ye Han's home is in the north, where there are four distinct seasons. The average temperature in winter is more than ten degrees below zero, the lowest temperature is close to forty degrees below zero, and the highest temperature in summer is around thirty degrees above zero. In other words, the temperature difference between winter and summer is about seventy degrees.
.
He vaguely remembered reading somewhere that more than seventy degrees below zero is the average temperature in Antarctica in winter. Based on these figures, the lowest temperature in Antarctica should be close to minus ninety degrees. In other words, the average temperature in Antarctica in summer should be around minus two degrees.
About ten degrees.
Now the global temperature has risen by six degrees. If it rises another fourteen degrees, the average summer temperature in Antarctica will reach above zero. The Antarctic ice cap, which has existed for unknown ages, will gradually melt and become an accomplice in raising sea levels.
But one day, sea level will no longer matter, because the average summer temperature in the north will reach 50 degrees above zero, and extreme weather may even reach 60 degrees above zero!
What is the concept of sixty degrees above zero? It is not surprising that the surface temperature under direct sunlight reaches eighty or even ninety degrees above zero.
Can humans survive in temperatures of 60 degrees above zero?
Maybe, desert areas seem to have such extreme temperatures.
But what about 80 degrees above zero? What about 90 degrees above zero? If a person is cooked, how can he still give birth to a fart?
"It's good to know!" Wu Han knocked on the table hard. "Although there are no clear instructions above, I believe that within a period of time, your mission will be to escort personnel to evacuate. It is just a good opportunity to run into the troops."
Ye Han quickly expressed his position: "Chief, don't worry, we will carry out whatever tasks are arranged by the superiors!"
"Very good, I'm looking forward to your good news!" Having said this, Wu Han stood up, "Okay, that's it for today. When we get back, we'll get familiar with the equipment and set off as soon as possible. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Everyone stood up at the same time, and now Wu Han left.
After the door of the conference room was closed, everyone breathed a sigh of relief. Everyone's eyes turned to Ye Han.
Ye Han sighed: "Is everyone's mission clear?"
"clear!"
Ye Han said: "There are no outsiders here. I don't want to say more, and I don't need to say more. I just took over the army and am not familiar with the situation, but you have all been in place for a while, right?"
"Seven days for me!" Xiao Yuan raised his hand.
"Five days for me!" Ouyang Ping raised his hand.
"I'm just like you!" Luo Qi raised his hand.
Ye Han gave Luo Qi a hard look: "You are the only one who talks too much!"
Luo Qi quickly shrank his neck.
Ye Han said: "That means Luo Qi and I are the only ones who are not familiar with the equipment, right?"
He has already read the information. The orbital airborne troops formed this time are different from the past. In the past, those airborne troops still followed the old path of paratroopers, but this time they followed the route of elite troops.
To use a not particularly vivid analogy, in the past, airborne troops were like powerful infantry, while orbital airborne troops were like special forces. The two were not at the same level at all.
The most direct manifestation is equipment.
The main equipment of the orbital airborne troops is naturally powered armor, but this armor adopts some alien technology and uses many new materials. Its performance has been greatly improved. Compared with previous powered armors, it is like a van or a supercar.
.
Xiao Yuan nodded honestly, Ouyang Ping immediately agreed, and Ye Han couldn't help but smile: "Okay, we won't have much influence, go back and lead the troops, board the ship as soon as possible... Lin Yi!"
"arrive!"
"How is the situation on the battleship?"
"Everything is normal, you can leave at any time!" Lin Yi replied loudly.
"Very good, then organize the boarding immediately."
