记者心语:为了胜利的冲锋,是军人写给祖国的诗。

夜越来越深,外面的风更猛了。紊乱的气流时不时横冲直撞。战车载员舱内,战士们怀抱着枪,立起迷彩大衣的毛领子,一个紧挨一个挤坐在一起。嘴里呼出的热气映着灯光腾起来,旋即在冰冷坚硬的战车顶部消失。
“居然真能哈气成冰!”一名列兵试探着伸出手在车顶轻轻抠了几下,白色粉末状冰晶便掉下来。他生在南方,长在南方,读书在南方,当兵也在南方,这是他人生第一次在冬天来到祖国的北方,第一次踏上这片蒙古语中意为“心脏”的塞外草原。尽管他们通常被人们誉为“三栖精兵”,但此番由粤西千里北上,不管是这位列兵还是海军陆战队某旅,面临的挑战都异常严峻。恶劣的天气、陌生的环境、未知的任务等,更不要说对手是在全军素有“草原狼”盛名的蓝军部队了。
双方交上手是在此前一晚午夜时分,大风还没刮起来。天朗无月,星垂野阔,奔波转战一天的战士们在战车旁就地支起帐篷,和衣钻进防寒睡袋,很快沉沉进入梦乡。营指挥所内灯还亮着,营长和几位参谋正在完善第二天的兵力行动计划。连长察看完哨兵点位和各作战单元野营情况,深一脚浅一脚地踩在枯草与沙土间杂的地面上,时不时抬起头望向漫天星斗。
“各连……”电台突然发出动静,大家心里一紧:蓝军来了。果不其然,一小股侦察兵七拐八绕躲过重重警戒兵力,摸进红方一个营指挥所。红方反应也很快,立刻包抄过来,结结实实还给蓝方一记重拳。
后半夜的觉没人能睡踏实,大自然也开始排兵布阵。每一根草都被摁倒在地,沙土被卷到空中,碎石被撵着乱跑,人被顶得寸步难行。寒风擂鼓般隆隆卷过运输车的帆布顶篷,然后透过车体上的缝隙钻进来,声音像吹哨一般尖厉。水洒在地上,竟以肉眼可见的速度结出冰凌。
风吹铁甲寒。气象数据显示,当天最大风力8级,最低气温零下20摄氏度。
从黎明直至日暮,战士们马不停蹄地东奔西突,与蓝方针锋相对、亮剑拆招,各型战车碾出车辙,或窄或宽、或直或弯,纵横交错、暗藏兵锋,直到在数百平方公里草原排开凛凛军阵、布下重重棋局。脚冻麻了就跺跺,手冻木了就捂捂,脸冻红了就搓搓,每个人心里都绷着一根弦、燃着一团火、努着一股劲儿,誓与这塞北的寒、草原的兵一决高下。
凌晨3时许,战车集结列阵,发动机的强劲咆哮汇成冲锋号角,大地为之颤动。“即将抵达前沿,做好战斗准备!”战士们脱去大衣,露出战斗着装,相互检查装具。“抵达作战地域,载员下车作战!”列兵打开尾部舱门,一股寒风涌进来。奔跑,向着敌人的方向;跃进,迎着密集的枪炮;“嗒嗒”声、“嘭嘭”声、“呼呼”声、“咝咝”声此起彼伏,俨然天地间一场宏大的交响。
历时约两个小时,天近拂晓,演习告一段落。战士们鱼贯返回战车,坐定后不约而同把两只手叠拢上来,接住用嘴哈出的热气,口鼻四周的防寒面罩结着一层白色霜花。“我们把蓝军打败了。”他们的声音在颤抖,牙齿不受控制地磕出声响,那是身体对低温做出的本能反应。
那一天,是在11月。
很多年前的一个11月,我们的前辈俯卧在零下40摄氏度的阵地上,直至受冻牺牲仍保持战斗队形和冲锋姿态,在人类战争史上留下赫赫威名:冰雕连。
长津湖,朱日和。中国军人,热血如昨。
中新网评:处理核污水绝不是日本自家私事******
中新网北京1月19日电(蒋鲤)日本政府近日称,将于2023年春夏期间开始向海洋排放经过处理的福岛第一核电站核污水。日本罔顾国内民众及周边国家的屡屡反对,企图将核污水“一倒了之”,把一件关乎全球海洋生态环境和公众健康的事当成了自家私事。
资料图:日本福岛第一核电站。2011年,福岛核电站事故发生后,大量放射性物质泄漏到大气层和太平洋,对周围环境造成了难以逆转的伤害,数十万人被迫撤离该地区。时至今日,作为日本邻国之一的韩国仍未解除福岛海鲜禁令。
日本以核污水存储能力即将达到上限为由,在2021年4月13日,正式决定将福岛第一核电站核污水排入太平洋。过去一年多,日本政府和东京电力公司一直在持续推进核污水排海计划。
日本政府辩称,这些核污水经多核素处理系统(ALPS)处理后很安全,甚至“可以喝”,这样的表态无疑在愚弄大众。
事实上,经过处理的核污水仍含有多种放射性物质,核污水一旦排放入海就无法回收,长期来看,将会给海洋生态带来难以估量的潜在威胁,最终危害人类健康。
因此,核污水排海计划推出后,遭到日本民众强烈反对。日本《朝日新闻》2022年3月公布的问卷调查显示,福岛县、宫城县和岩手县受访的42个市町村长中,约六成反对东京电力公司福岛第一核电站核污水排放入海。日本全国渔业协会联合会也多次申明立场,反对该计划。
日本政府认为,核污水排海是最便宜、最省事的解决方案,但此举却将周边国家乃至全世界置于核污染风险中。太平洋非日本一家之海,核污水会随着洋流流动,其影响势必会跨越国界,危害周边国家乃至整个国际社会的公共福祉和利益。
《韩国经济新闻》发文称,相关研究认为,福岛核污水如果排放入海,约7个月后将到达济州等韩国海域,该国水产业和旅游业将遭受相当大的损失。
德国南极海洋机构也曾发出警告,若日本将所有核污水排入海中,不到半年,整个太平洋都将面临高度辐射威胁,包括远在大洋另一端的美国。太平洋地区人民更是对日本该计划持反对意见。
日本作为《联合国海洋法公约》缔约国,有义务保护海洋环境。然而,在核污水排海方案的正当性、核污水数据的可靠性、净化装置的有效性、环境影响的不确定性等问题上,日本未能作出科学、可信的说明。
国际原子能机构技术工作组虽已三次赴日实地考察评估,但尚未就日排海方案的安全性给出结论,并且对日本提出诸多澄清要求和整改意见。在此情况下,日本仍执意推进核污水排海工程建设,这是极不负责任的行为。
太平洋不是日本的下水道,日本必须正视各方合理关切,在与周边国家等相关利益方和国际原子能机构充分协商后,制定合理的核污水处理方案。日本也要着眼长远,若只顾眼前,执意将核污水排放入海,不仅其自身,周边国家乃至全世界都将为之买单,其后果必将会危害数代人。
Fukushima water disposal by no means Japan’s own business
By John Lee
(ECNS) -- Japan has announced it will release treated wastewater from the wrecked Fukushima Daiichi Nuclear Power Plant into the Pacific Ocean this year.
Although Fukushima wastewater disposal affects global marine ecological environment protection and public health, Japan has turned a deaf ear to domestic and international opposition to dumping the contaminated water into the sea, treating the "global" matter as its own business.
The Fukushima accident in 2011 had sent large quantities of radiation into the atmosphere and the Pacific Ocean, causing irreversible damage to the surrounding environment, and hundreds of thousands of people were forced to evacuate the area. South Korea still maintains its import ban on Japanese seafood from areas affected by the Fukushima nuclear disaster.
On April 13, 2021, Japan announced it had decided to discharge contaminated radioactive wastewater in Fukushima Prefecture into the sea due to dwindling storage space, with the Japanese government and plant operator Tokyo Electric Power Company Holdings Inc. promoting the release plan over the past year.
The Japanese government argues that the water treated by an advanced liquid processing system, or ALPS, is safe and drinkable, which is undoubtedly fooling the public.
In fact, the treated wastewater still includes a variety of radioactive substances and can’t be recycled once discharged into the sea, which will pose a great threat to marine ecology and ultimately endanger human health in the long run.
Therefore, the discharge plan has been strongly opposed in Japan. According to a questionnaire conducted by The Asahi Shimbun, nearly 60 percent of mayors of 42 municipalities in Iwate, Miyagi and Fukushima prefectures oppose the discharge plan. The National Fisheries Cooperative Federation of Japan has also repeatedly stated its opposition in public.
The Japanese government believes that dumping Fukushima wastewater into the sea is the cheapest and most convenient solution, but neighboring countries and even the whole world will be at risk of nuclear pollution.
The Pacific Ocean doesn’t belong to Japan and the wastewater flow along oceanic currents will surely break boundaries and endanger public welfare and the interests of neighboring countries and even the international community.
The Korea Economic Daily reported that related research concluded that if contaminated water from Fukushima is released into the ocean, it would only take seven months for the contaminated water to reach the shores of Jeju Island, with the country's aquaculture and tourism suffering considerable losses.
According to the calculation of a German marine scientific research institute, radioactive materials will spread to most of the Pacific Ocean within half a year from the date of discharge, and the U.S. and Canada will be affected by nuclear pollution. People in the Pacific region also oppose the discharge plan.
As a participant of the United Nations Convention on the Law of the Sea, Japan has the obligation of protecting the marine environment.
However, it hasn’t offered a full and convincing explanation on issues like the legitimacy of the discharge plan, the reliability of data on the nuclear-contaminated water, the efficacy of the treatment system or the uncertainty of environmental impact.
Though the IAEA has yet to complete a comprehensive review after three investigations in Japan, the Japanese side has been pushing through the approval process for its discharge plan and even started building facilities for the discharge. It is rather irresponsible for Japan to act against public opinion at home and concerns abroad.
The Pacific Ocean is not a private Japanese sewer. The country must seriously heed the voices of the international community and make a reasonable plan for the Fukushima wastewater disposal after full consultation with stakeholders and international agencies.
If it only seeks instant interest and insists on discharging the contaminated water into the sea, not only itself, but also its neighboring countries and the entire world will pay for the decision and several generations will be forced to bear the consequence.
