The title is like a mirror of history and reality, reflecting the tragedy and warning of the hot summer of 1945 - the two nuclear bombs dropped by the United States on Hiroshima and Nagasaki in Japan instantly changed the pattern of the war and forced Japan to make the historical choice of unconditional surrender. This shocking nuclear war showcased the cruel side of truth with its devastating power: "Truth is only within the range of artillery." Around the world, countries have taken this opportunity to accelerate the development of their own nuclear weapons, trying to establish a delicate and tense nuclear ecological balance on the international stage.
However, the pain of history has not made us forget to prepare for a possible crisis. In China, especially during the War of Resistance Against Japanese Aggression, the people's awareness of security has given birth to a practice of digging deep holes and building defenses extensively. As the times changed and in the face of the nuclear threat that existed in the Soviet Union, the "deep hole" strategy proposed by the chairman aimed at building a protective network sufficient to withstand a nuclear attack. Many of the former bomb shelters have been transformed into today's underground shopping malls, which not only have good seismic performance, but also provide a certain degree of nuclear radiation protection and shock wave resistance in the event of a nuclear war.
In the process of modern urbanization, the high standard of urban infrastructure construction also provides a new place of refuge for nuclear war prevention. For example, the metro station system in an economically developed city, with its sturdy construction and highly earthquake-resistant design, was able to act as a temporary refuge in the event of war. The emergency water supply and lighting installed in the subway stations have undoubtedly enhanced the probability of people surviving in extreme situations.
Moreover, when the specter of war looms, we turn our attention to highlands and islands that are not of military value. For example, the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau and other places may be an ideal place to avoid direct attacks in the event of a nuclear war, although they pose challenges to their survival due to harsh climate and lack of oxygen. Remote islands, on the other hand, rely on the unique island climate and geographical advantages to help reduce the impact of nuclear fallout, and even achieve long-term survival through technologies such as desalination.
As for the economically underdeveloped Great Northwest, despite its difficult living conditions, its low population density makes it a potential refuge area for nuclear war. Deserts and sand dunes may seem barren, but they have become a refuge for life to some extent.
In the face of the ultimate threat of nuclear war, every country and individual is looking for the most suitable survival strategy. From excavating the lessons of history to laying out practical evacuation plans, human beings, driven by fear and survival instincts, are constantly exploring ways of defense in peacetime, hoping to build a solid protective barrier for all mankind through the power of reason and technology. This reflection on survival and destruction is not only a heavy echo of history, but also a deep worry and preparation for the uncertainty of the future.
