At around nine o'clock that night, martial law was in full swing, Luhuai Inner and Outer Ports, and more than 20,000 naval soldiers and more than 20,000 army soldiers were on guard near the port, and the momentum was huge.

Inside the city.

In the first floor lobby of the Academy of Military Sciences, there are more than 400 top young academicians and professors, who were picked up by soldiers from the Zhou Dynasty at around 8 o'clock.

After people arrived, the troops restricted communication, restricted their activity areas, and even restricted their communication with each other.

These people waited until around 9:40, when personnel from the Zhou military intelligence department arrived at the scene.

Everyone gathered in the hall, looked up and felt nervous. An old professor who is well-known in the world's military-industrial scientific research community took the lead in asking: "What are you going to do?!"

The military personnel looked up at the other party, took out a document directly signed by the command from their arms with a blank expression, and read aloud: "Because Luhuai is currently under military threat from the bandit army, in order to protect our top military talents, the Supreme Military Command of the Seventh District has decided to implement the No. 1 evacuation plan... It is planned to evacuate personnel first at 23:05 tonight and board the ship at Luhuai Port 2. Those who receive the evacuation order must cooperate with the work of the functional troops..."

The military personnel had just said halfway through the words, and the room was in an uproar.

"Where to retreat?"

"Why not discuss with us?"

"What should our family do?"

“…!”

Asking and shouting sounded constantly indoors, everyone was panicked because the plan came too suddenly.

"Kang Kang!"

Two gunshots erupted, and the room was completely quiet.

The military personnel shouted with sharp eyes: "This is an order, it must be implemented. Please cooperate!"

"What shit command? We're going to meet the commander-in-chief!"

"We have to make it clear, where exactly do we retreat?"

“…!”

Everyone stopped doing it and continued to ask while pushing the soldiers.

"Your family will have someone to arrange it." The military intelligence officer replied expressionlessly and immediately waved his hand to the door: "Come on, help everyone evacuate."

The order was issued, and many soldiers rushed in outdoors and began to force the people in the hall out in batches. At the door, upstairs, and in the hall corridor, at least thirty machine guns were set up. Although many scientific researchers chose to resist, their arms could not be swayed, and they were still stuffed into military vehicles one by one.

...

at the same time.

Many institutions in Luhuai City, functional departments with top intellectual talents, are also carrying out large-scale pre-evacuation plans.

On the north side of Luhuai, in a single-family villa, an old lady with gray hair sat in her lobby and asked at more than a dozen officers: "Where are you evacuating?"

"Sorry, Academician Li, this is a military secret."

"Why do you have military secrets in your own people?" the old lady asked slowly with a flower glass.

"We have no right to ask about the headquarters' decision. To be honest, we don't know where to withdraw now." The military personnel replied politely.

The old lady pondered for a while, picked up the teacup and said, "I retreated from Nanhu to Jiujiang, and from Jiujiang to Luhuai. It took only two days of silence, and now I am leaving again. I think we can't go to the Eighth District, Sichuan Mansion... we can only go to the EU area and be a smart coolie for others. Alas, I am old and can't make any moves, and I don't want to leave my hometown...you go."

Military personnel were silent.

"My students, if there are anyone who is willing to evacuate, I will never intervene." The old lady took a sip of water and said, "Let's go, I'm going to rest."

The leading military personnel hesitated for a while, turned their heads and winked at the people next to them. Then six men immediately stepped forward and stood next to the old lady and made a gesture of inviting them.

"You are the top talent in our seven districts' key protection. We must ask you to cooperate with our work." The leading military personnel said expressionlessly.

Seeing that the other party was so tough, the old lady slowly stood up and replied, "...Okay."

"please!"

"Can I call my son?" the old lady asked in a trembling voice.

The leading military personnel thought for a while and nodded slowly.

The old lady walked to the living room table tremblingly. First, she picked up the phone with her left hand and pretended to dial the phone. Then she took out a very small pistol from under the table with her right hand.

When the military personnel saw her raising their arms, they rushed up immediately.

"Don't move!" The old lady calmly pointed her gun at her temple and said in a concise manner: "The ancestral graves are all here, where do you want me to go?"

"Academician Li, listen to me..."

"I'm going with my wife..." The old lady held the gun in her right hand and kept shaking, but she pulled the trigger very decisively.

With a gunshot, the old man fell to the ground.

Everyone in the room was silent.

Yes, many elites can think of where they are going, but in the end they choose to die rather than leave, bury their homeland and return their souls to their hometown.

...

Luhuai, within Port No. 2.

Boxes of the Zhou Dynasty's property reserves were transported to a large ship under the escort of the troops directly under the command. There were gold bars here, antique calligraphy and paintings left over from the age of year, expensive and intimidating materials, and the world-class currency reserved by the Zhou Dynasty for so many years, with an amazing amount of property.

If people want to leave, of course money and food must also leave.

The goods were transported on board first, and followed those intellectual talents who were willing to leave or were trapped on board one by one.

The entire dock is brightly lit, but it is strictly managed. No media or people can get close to it. They only know that there are a large number of soldiers in the city, but they don’t know what the upper class is doing.

...

In the chief sanatorium.

The weak Xu Hancheng, despite the doctor's dissuasion, forced his leave the ward and came to the outdoors.

He walked in the garden, looking at the familiar cities and streets, and for a moment he seemed to have grown up several decades again.

"...Commander, please slow down." The young guard soldier supported him and reminded softly.

After holding it in for a long time, Xu Seoul turned his head and asked, "Are you willing to leave?"

"I listen to the arrangements of the upper class."

"...I don't want to leave." Xu Hancheng, who has been a king and a general for his whole life, shed tears at this moment: "...It's said that fallen leaves return to their roots. Oh, after they leave... the roots are gone."

Xu Seoul slowly closed his eyes: "There is no root!"

...

Sichuan Mansion.

After seeing the surrendered battalion commander of the Zhou clerk, Ma Laoer got on the plane and rushed to Jiangzhou. He also called Qin Yu on the plane: "The Zhou clerk is going to evacuate on a large scale. I have received a lot of news. The first batch of people are leaving tonight."

Qin Yu frowned: "Anyone who responded?"
