In the Yanhuang Continent, in the rocket satellite monitoring room of the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Gansu, Commander Shen, who put down the microphone, said loudly: "Contact the strategic satellite duty room, I need a high-resolution photo of Tiangong-1 (Shen X) to assess the damage and extent of its body, the fastest speed, understand!" ”

"Yes!"

After hearing the reply from his subordinates, Commander Shen did not squeak, but after pondering for ten seconds, he picked up the red phone in the upper left corner of the table and said, "I'm Shen Jinren, pick me up from the duty room of the Central Military Commission!" ”

Late at night, in an underground secret conference room in Beijing, Minister Zhang of the General Armament Department, Xie Zhonghua, commander-in-chief of the Air Force, and Mu Huairen, commander-in-chief of the Navy, were holding a video conference with Ma Xingrui, general manager of the China Aerospace Science and Technology Corporation in Sichuan, and Shen Jinren, commander on duty at the Jiuquan Satellite Launch Center in Gansu, via video link.

"That's pretty much it!" Shin Jin-in summarized what happened and what happened after a brief report.

"Has the cause of the explosion been identified?" Ma Xingrui, general manager of the aerospace group, who listened to the report, asked.

"I don't know for the time being, but we have a satellite that happened to take a picture of the explosion just now, and after zooming in, it should be an abandoned satellite that exploded!" Air Force Commander-in-Chief Xie Zhonghua said.

"Abandoned satellites?! Which country? Ma Xingrui, general manager of the aerospace group, asked.

"Yes, it's a satellite, according to the data comparison of our computer database, it is a satellite launched during the Soviet Union 40 years ago, and it has been abandoned for many years." Minister Zhang of the General Armament Department said, "Judging from the scale of the explosion, experts estimate that it should be a nuclear bomb with a yield of 300,000 to 500,000. ”

"Fuck, Lao Maozi is really not a thing, didn't they promise not to deploy nuclear weapons in outer space!" Commander-in-Chief of the Navy Mu Huairen scolded.

"Obviously, Lao Maozi lied to the world, sent a nuclear bomb to the sky in 1971, and now only one has exploded, and I don't know how many have not exploded." Air Force Commander-in-Chief Xie Zhonghua said.

"What does Russia say?" Commander-in-Chief of the Navy, Mu Huairen, then asked.

"The foreign affairs department has sent a message to consult, but there has been no reply, but I guess it must be pushed to the former Soviet Union, saying that the data is lost, and it is very likely that I don't know about it." Air Force Commander-in-Chief Xie Zhonghua said.

"Okay, let's leave Lao Maozi and Russia alone, it's all old accounts, some are counted in time, what should we do now, how can the three astronauts pick them up!" Minister Zhang of the General Armament Department saw that his colleagues had a tendency to "go off topic" and hurriedly reminded him.

"Commander Shen, what is the specific situation of Tiangong-1?" Ma Xingrui, general manager of the aerospace group, asked.

"Not optimistic, an hour ago, our reconnaissance satellite flew to the closest place to Tiangong-1, from the high-resolution photos sent back by the satellite, the return capsule was hit by a large piece of metal fragments and appeared large cracks, and other compartments of Tiangong-1 were also damaged in many places, fortunately there is no second large piece of metal, otherwise Tiangong-1 is likely to be directly cut in half!" Shin Jin-in, who heard the question, replied.

"That is, the three of them can't return in the return capsule, am I right?" Ma Xingrui, general manager of the aerospace group, asked.

"Yes!" Shin Jin-in said.

"So what to do, launch a second rocket to the rescue?" Air Force Commander-in-Chief Xie Zhonghua asked.

"I'm afraid it can't be done, although we have a plan to send rockets to rescue, but it is also based on the situation that it can dock smoothly with Tiangong-1, and now the return capsule is damaged, there is a problem with the interface, and it is useless to launch it, and..."Ma Xingrui, general manager of the aerospace group, replied.

"And what?" Air Force Commander-in-Chief Xie Zhonghua asked.

"As far as I know, there is a large amount of metal floating debris around Sky One, which is estimated to be fragments of other satellites damaged by the explosion, so it is difficult to guarantee that there will be no other accidents in the case of rescue." Ma Xingrui, general manager of the aerospace group, who heard the question, replied.

"Is it possible for Tiangong-1 to fall into the atmosphere as a whole and return?" Commander-in-Chief of the Navy Mu Huairen suggested.

"Impossible, the strength of Tiangong-1's body is not designed and built according to the standard of crossing the atmosphere, and even if it is according to that standard, it is now damaged in many places, and once it falls, it will end up with a big fireball." Minister Zhang of the General Armament Department shook his head and said.

"There's no way around it?" Air Force Commander-in-Chief Xie Zhonghua asked.

"Unless we have a space shuttle, we forcibly put Sky One into the cargo hold and bring it back to Earth." Ma Xingrui, general manager of the aerospace group, replied.

"You mean that we can only save our astronauts if we turn to the Stars and Stripes Republic?" Commander-in-Chief of the Navy Mu Huairen asked.

"Technically, this is the only way to bring those three back safely!" Ma Xingrui, general manager of the aerospace group, replied stubbornly.

"Time is precious! Tiangong-1 is one minute less than the past minute, and since the result of the discussion is like this, I suggest that our discussion opinions be reported to the Central Military Commission immediately! Air Force Commander-in-Chief Xie Zhonghua said.

"Agreed!"

"I agree!"

"Seconded!!"

The next day, through the Ministry of Foreign Affairs, the Republic of Yanhuang urgently summoned the ambassador of the Stars and Stripes Republic to Yanhuang and informed the other party of the accident of Tiangong-1 and the hope that the Stars and Stripes Republic could dispatch a space shuttle to help the three astronauts return to Earth in the form of an official document.

In the afternoon of the next day, starting with the well-known newspapers and television stations and other media in the Republic of the Stars and Stripes, and spreading wildly through the Internet, in just one afternoon, the whole world knew that because the nuclear bomb satellite deployed by the former Soviet Union in space, it exploded for unknown reasons, causing the Tiangong-1 of the Yanhuang Republic to be severely damaged, and the Yanhuang Republic applied to the Stars and Stripes Republic, hoping to send the Stars and Stripes Republic space shuttle to rescue the news.

Suddenly, the Internet of the entire global village was a sensation, and there was a voice of schadenfreude among the Indian and Japanese devils, and there were those who cared about Europe and America, and those who were happy. The domestic society of Yanhuang is worried, and various forums have posted to discuss the latest progress of Tiangong-1, and the families of the three astronauts are nervous and overwhelmed, so they have to pray silently, hoping that their families can turn the corner.

The National Aeronautics and Space Administration (NASA) headquarters (NASA) in the Republic of the Stars and Stripes, Washington, D.C., is holding a meeting on the feasibility and necessity of rescuing Tiangong-1 in the Republic of Yanhuang. The moderator of the meeting was NASA CEO Charles Lisse? Frank.

"All right, gentlemen, now the meeting is called! Your Excellency the President wants to know whether we have the ability to successfully launch the space shuttle within five days and rescue Tiangong-1 of the Yanhuang Republic! "Charles? Frank said.

"Hey, Frank, has Your Excellency decided to save the Yanhuang people?" Mark, who sat on Frank's left hand, asked.

"No, Mark, the president hasn't made a decision yet, the president just wants to know if we can rescue it, if we can't do it in 5 days, then in fact, there is only one choice, we can only help!" Charles? Frank said with a shrug.

"Prepare everything in 5 days, and then successfully launch the shuttle into space?" Mark said to himself, "Honestly, this is basically impossible!" ”

"Indeed, if nothing else, we now only have one space shuttle 'Endeavour' ready for departure, but it will take at least a week just to test the reliable technology that completely eliminates the risk of debris falling off during launch, reinforces the aircraft hull, improves collision resistance, and ensures space maintenance." James sitting on the other side? Vanov interfaced.

"James, what do you mean?" Charles? Frank asked.

"Launching without any inspection is a great irresponsibility to our astronauts, and to be honest, if it is our own orbital space station, then I can understand the forced launch, but for the sake of non-national nationals, such a high-risk emergency launch, I myself am opposed." James replied.

"Ms. Jeff, what is your opinion?" Charles? Frank asked the last and only lady in the room.

"I'm sorry, although I sympathize with the three astronauts of the Yanhuang Kingdom, I also do not approve of allowing my astronauts to carry out an extremely dangerous emergency launch." Ms. Jeff said.

"Well, since everyone's opinion has been unanimous, I will report to His Excellency the President that it is not feasible to launch a space shuttle within five days at this stage, do you have any objections?"

"Nope!"

"Agreed!!"

On the evening of the second day, the foreign affairs department of the Republic of Stars and Stripes officially replied to the Ministry of Foreign Affairs of the Yellow Republic: Due to technical reasons, it was impossible to launch the space shuttle for rescue within 5 days!

After learning the reply from the Stars and Stripes Republic, the entire network in Yanhuang exploded. In a domestic military forum it was written:

"the Star-Spangled Guy! Dead guys! ”

"Agree with the opinion upstairs, suggest that the country impose economic sanctions on the Stars and Stripes Republic to take revenge on those cold-blooded guys!"

"Please calm down, the launch of the space shuttle in 5 days is really unlikely, call for rational patriotism." (A slightly calmer Yanhuang resident left a message)

"Die, traitor upstairs!" (Immediately provoked a round of scolding)

"Agreed, the 3rd floor is !! to die"

……

Wang Fan looked at these more and more speeches and messages, and asked in his mind, "Yadi, what is the situation of the military network you monitor?" ”

"Well, judging from the situation gathered by your motherland, Tiangong-1 is seriously damaged, the most important thing is that the return capsule is damaged, the connection port cannot be opened and used, the military does not have the ability to rescue Tiangong-1 at this stage, the Stars and Stripes Republic refused the request to launch the space shuttle for technical reasons, judging from the intelligence and data I collected, the technical reasons accounted for about 7 percent, and the other 3 percent is estimated that they don't want their people to take risks."

"Cut, I knew they wouldn't agree, our aircraft can do it, right?" After hearing Yadi's story, Wang Fan asked.

"Well, I'm afraid the aircraft won't work either!" To Wang Fan's surprise, Yadi replied.

"What? Why not?! Wang Fan asked in surprise.

"This aircraft is designed with reconnaissance and combat as the core concept, and there is not enough hatch size to enter and exit and enough internal space to store Tiangong-1." Yadi explained.

"What then? Do you just watch the lives of your compatriots disappear? Wang Fan said angrily.

"Don't worry, we have other ways." To Wang Fan's surprise, Yadi calmly continued, "Do you remember that 'little favor' you asked me to help you (see Chapter 45 Satellite and Anti-ship Guideway)"

"Of course I do, but it doesn't seem to have anything to do with going out of the atmosphere." Wang Fan replied. So what does Wang Fan want Yadi to do for him? It turns out that Wang Fan, who is an otaku, once spent a lot of time watching the two-dimensional anime (degenerate ^_^) of the Japanese Invaders, one of which is called "Space Battleship Yamato". What made Wang Fan very depressed was that the level of the little devil YY was not low, and he actually moved the Yamato to the cosmic battlefield.

It wasn't until Wang Fan was scanning the USS George Bush aircraft carrier at the port of Sasebo that Wang Fan had a whim, and he already had the battleship Yamato in his hands, which was paired with the USS George Bush, and the aircraft carrier could be placed in the middle, with a Yamato battleship on the left and right, thus forming a trimaran-style space carrier! You read that right, it's a space carrier, not an aircraft carrier!! Because Wang Fan intends to use the anti-gravity engine of the aircraft copied by the kernel and the nuclear fusion engine made by Yadea to form the power source of the aerospace carrier, the combat battlefield of the three-body aircraft carrier will be positioned at an altitude of more than 30,000 meters, the firepower of 460mm artillery, more than 150 aircraft (including the storage space of Yamato-class warships), and finally the world's most advanced active phased array radar of the Stars and Stripes Republic, and finally the geographical advantage of aerial reconnaissance from an altitude of 30,000 meters and a large number of air defense anti-ship missiles. Hey!! What aircraft carrier formation, absolutely weak, must make them scum! Let the little devil continue to be in the anime yy, hmph, this time we have a real guy, then go to the little devil for a turn, wahaha, Comrade Wang Fan thought evilly.

"How's our 'Qin Shi Huang' doing?" Wang Fan asked.

"Because there are a lot of parts that need to be welded and modified, the completion rate is only 70%!" Yadea responded.

"That's even more useless!" After hearing Yadi's reply, Wang Fan said depressedly.

"No, I'm not talking about the Qin Shi Huang, I'm talking about the shuttle (space shuttle) that is built in the supporting facilities!" Yadi explained.

"Shuttle?!"

"Yes, in order to solve the problem of the supply of space carriers, I built three shuttles at the same time to deliver supplies from the ground to space carriers, each with a cargo capacity of up to 100 tons!" Yadea said.

"But I remember that the power of the shuttle can't break through the atmosphere, right?" Wang Fan asked while recalling the performance of the shuttle in his brain.

"With a few changes, I only need to add two more engines to make the shuttle reach and exceed the first cosmic velocity, thus breaking through the limits of the atmosphere." Yadi replied.

"Great, how much time will that take?" Wang Fan asked excitedly.

"Well, in addition to adding two engines, you also need to add a robotic arm, an electromagnetic cannon and a laser cannon to remove metal fragments around Tiangong-1, and finally coat the shuttle shell with an additional layer of ceramic alloy, and it is estimated that the entire modification will take 27 hours!" Yadi calculated and said.

"Great! So they will be saved! Wang Fan said.

"But you need to be careful?" Yadi reminded suddenly.

"What?"

"Once our shuttle is used for rescue, it will definitely be tracked by satellites of various countries, how to deal with the aftermath when the time comes? You can't let the shuttle suddenly disappear in front of the reconnaissance satellite, and to be honest, once you save people and land, your country may not let this shuttle leave, and if it is forcibly lifted into the air, maybe it will let the fighter shoot down! ”

"Well~~~ It's very possible what you said, after all, the Stars and Stripes aerospace plane has not yet been put into practical use!" After Wang Fan heard it, he said: "But people still have to be saved, as for how to deal with the aftermath, leave it to me!" ”

"You just have a score in your heart!" Yadi replied.

At 10 o'clock in the morning on the third day after the Tiangong-1 accident, Minister Xiao, Vice Minister of National Defense, was reviewing documents in his office, when suddenly his mobile phone rang, and he picked it up and said, "Hello, who is it?" ”

"Hello, dear Minister Shaw, a good friend of the African people, I am John Ewing, I have a business, I believe you will be very interested!" The familiar African accent came again.

ps: Monday's double shift, I'm hurrying to prepare ammunition ^_^
