Chapter 142 142 How to transport the spaceship
Gorbachev's return has made Moscow, which was already in turmoil, even more treacherous. In particular, the three initiators who instigated the whole incident and deceived Gorbachev - Aliyev, Sokolov, and Chebrikov - felt the pressure of a mountain over their heads.
The three of them met here in a secret place, and Chebrikov immediately asked: "What shall we do now?" Things have come to this point, there is no way to advance or retreat, and if we take Gorbachev, maybe there is still a chance of survival. β
Sokolov took off his military hat and sighed: "We have come too far, should we let a coup d'Γ©tat take place in Moscow?" What will become of the country after the coup? It's all to blame for our cowardice and submission to Kirk's words......"
His words caused a burst of silence.
Aliyev suddenly asked: "What about Kirk?" Shouldn't he come out and take some responsibility at this time? β
Chebrikov said with an ugly face: "This great god, if we want to call him, we are not enough. After he heard that the 32nd Army was defeated, he hurried to the Central Asian Military Region. β
Aliyev said angrily: "At this time, how can you still let him leave Moscow?" Also, such a freak went to Central Asia, who knows what kind of disputes he will cause, and he will probably not hesitate to start a nuclear war in order to get what he wants! β
Sokolov could only comfort: "Don't worry about this for the time being, although Kirk has obtained a high enough level of authority from the Ministry of Defense and the KGB to allow him to pass unimpeded, but if he wants to mobilize nuclear weapons, he still does not have this weight." β
Chebrikov said: "I'm afraid that he will use those unconventional means......"
Everyone shuddered again.
Aliyev collapsed in his chair as if he had been drained of strength, and said in a low voice: "We can't escape this time, Gorbachev is not ruthless enough, we don't have to worry about our lives, but I am afraid that it is necessary to hand over this position, I am ready to take the initiative to hand over my resignation to Gorbachev, what about you?" β
Both Sokolov and Chebrikov were hesitant, but they also knew that they did not have the obvious Goth's label on them, and that they had committed such a big sin, and that Gorbachev could no longer let them do whatever they wanted.
"So be it." The two agreed.
Still worried, Chebrikov said: "The key is what Kirk will do in Central Asia, my heart has not been calm, and I am always worried that he will do something out of the ordinary." β
Sokolov pursed his lips and said helplessly: "If he doesn't do something out of line, then it's not Grigory?" Kirk! It's just that we should poke out Kirk's affairs, after all, Gorbachev still knows nothing about Kirk's deeds. β
Aliyev, with a grim expression on his face, sneered: "Tell him what to do?" Can he live in fear? Watch Kirk kill the third supreme leader of the Soviets? Kirk is the most dangerous snake only when it is unknown, and there is no need to let Gorbachev know too much. β
Chebrikov said: "But he has already gone to Central Asia, who knows that Lu Dao will use something strange in the mysterious palace, and the movement is too big, Gorbachev will still find out." β
"Then wait until he finds out, Comrade Sokolov, please inform the people below again, try to avoid Kirk's actions, what he asks for and give him, but when he does things, he is far away, well, both for the sake of secrecy and for the sake of their lives."
"It's good, I know it."
Aliyev comforted the two partners: "A temporary loss of momentum does not mean that there is no chance of recovery in the future, as long as we wait patiently for the opportunity." Hehe, Gorbachev is an exaggerated person, he is ambitious and talented, and he will make mistakes one day......"

The border conflict between China and the Soviet Union has come to an end, and the Chinese army led by the 309th Division has withdrawn from the territory of the Soviet Union to the east of Alashankou, and the Alatau Mountain and the Mayili Mountain are two natural barriers, unless the Soviets want to fully expand the situation, otherwise they want to attack the territory of the Celestial Empire and seize the fragments of the spaceship again, and there is only one way to Alashankou.
The smaller pieces of spacecraft debris have been collected these days, and those that can be sent away have been loaded onto the Dalinor base, where there is enough experimental equipment and a safe environment to explore the extraterrestrial spacecraft. And the more troublesome thing is the main body of the spaceship, this big guy with at least 200 tons is like inserting a missile boat in the desert.
Most of the small pieces of debris have been transported away, leaving only this big guy alone in the desert, but everyone understands that if there is any black technology in these fragments, it must be in the main body of this largest spaceship, but now a group of people are helpless in the face of this big guy.
Since the fall of the spacecraft, it has not been confirmed whether the aircraft is a manned aircraft or a drone, and there are no signs of life, in fact, since the disintegration, these things have not reacted at all.
Sun Jingnu and Academician Zhao stood under the main body of this spaceship, looking up at the behemoth half-inserted in the sand, Sun Jingnu frowned and said: "According to the density and volume estimates we have detected, this spacecraft is at least two hundred tons. And we are now in the barren western desert, although there is a national highway nearby, but it is too unrealistic to expect such a large thing to be transported by road. But if you want to build a railway, not to mention the cost, I am afraid that you need five trains side by side to bear its weight at the same time in order to transport it normally, so where to find five parallel tracks in the mainland? Well, if you use a helicopter to hang it, although the double-edged helicopter used by the Army Air Corps can lift more than 20 tons of heavy objects, but to lift this thing, you need at least ten of them. Oh my God, the allocation of airspace for ten helicopters alone, in case they collide is already a big problem. β
Academician Zhao also shook his head, pointed to the jewel-like shell and said: "On this thing, we can't even find something that can be fixed, all I can think of is a super suction suction cup, maybe you can use magnetic field suction and other techniques, but whether it can bear such a weight is still unknown." β
Sun Jingnu couldn't help but be discouraged, "The research hasn't started yet, it's already so complicated to transport this thing, we can't open a research institute in the desert, besides, this place is too close to the Soviet Union, what if they have bad intentions again." β
Although the exchange of fire with the Soviets had been completely suspended at this time, there was not only a site for their scientific research operations near Lake Abbey, but also a temporary prisoner of war camp. Who knows if the Soviet Union will send troops to attack again for these prisoners of war, even if the 309th Division is reliable, but no one wants to be afraid.
Qi Yiming scratched his head for taking away such a huge thing, and he couldn't think of any particularly good way. The limitations of road and rail transportation are too great, if this is a small mountain, it can also smash the transport stones, but the main body of the spacecraft does not say whether it can be cut, but the scientific research needs must ensure its integrity.
He had the idea of using a drill mining vehicle to make a hole and get it back, but it was very unrealistic to make such a tunnel that spanned more than 3,000 kilometers and could accommodate such a large spaceship. In addition, the main body of the spaceship has no power, and it is very troublesome for the drilling mining vehicle to just drill into the ground, and it is really not an easy thing to drag such a heavy burden again.
In other words, there are few technologies in the base such as the drilling mining vehicle, which are black and purple, but the equipment that can be used is also something that Qi Yiming has always hoped to study. These heavy trailers, which are larger than one lap, can drill holes of 120 kilometers in a day, and can travel at speeds of up to 50 kilometers per hour underground without holes. Each drill truck can also be loaded like a truck, with a maximum capacity of 100 tons.
If it weren't for the fact that there were a large number of such drill-mining vehicles in the base, Qi Yiming would not have been so easy to open up and reequip the PLA with weapons.
Wanting to transport back the main body of this spaceship, Qi Yiming pinned his hopes on Academician Zhao's genius brain and the super manufacturing capacity of the base, and Academician Zhao did not disappoint him, and it didn't take long for Academician Zhao to come up with his own solution - the ultimate semi-rigid hoisting airship.
When Qi Yiming got Academician Zhao's plan, he couldn't help but be dumbfounded, to put it simply, in order to be able to transport the spacecraft of more than 200 tons, the ground road can't be walked, so let's just go to the sky. But it is ridiculous to let such a huge thing float into the sky, but Academician Zhao has such a whimsy.
This semi-rigid helium airship can reach a single internal load of 160 tons, and the hanging weight can reach more than 120 tons. Academician Zhao intends to use two or more airships together, just like making an iron chain. In addition, he plans to install a special retractable wing structure on the airship's airbags, so as to provide additional buoyancy to the airship in the event of extreme loads, and by the way, reduce its own energy consumption.
Qi Yiming couldn't say anything for a long time, many of the designs and techniques that Academician Zhao engaged in were ready-made, and some of them were also verified, but they did not pose any challenges to the base. Just when he was in a daze, the main control computer of the base sent a notice: If the airship designed by Academician Zhao is successfully manufactured and assembled, the base will obtain the Kirov airship manufacturing technology in advance and skip the needs of the combat laboratory.
This made Qi Yiming even more excited, not to mention whether the Kirov airship is still useful in modern warfare, just the fact that it can create a leapfrog weapon without relying on the combat laboratory has already made Qi Yiming's heart surge. In the case that he has not been able to upgrade the base for a long time, this has undoubtedly given him a new revelation.
