Ningwuguan.

Ye Han floated into the bridge, sat down in his place and buckled his helmet, the helmet automatically switched the image outside the ship, and the huge blue planet appeared at Ye Han's feet, the blue sea, the green and brown earth, and the clouds floating in the atmosphere, everything was so comfortable.

But beneath the comfortable surface, there is a life-and-death struggle between humans and aliens.

Ye Han sighed softly and switched the image back to the bridge: "Lin Yi, is there any movement?"

"Nope." Lin Yi said, "It's still the same as before." ”

Ye Han raised his eyebrows slightly, and muttered, "It's too quiet!"

That's right, it's just too quiet, so quiet that it makes people panic, like the eerie silence before a storm.

Lin Yi heard Ye Han's words, but he didn't answer, and he didn't know how to answer.

Operation Thunder has been going on for a week, and after the failure of the initial raid, the Mi army has regrouped and successively captured other strategic targets in Washington.

Although Washington has extraordinary significance to the people of the United States, but the war has reached this point, whether to recover Washington or not actually has little strategic significance, the reason why the United States continues to adhere to Operation Thunder is because there is intelligence that the high-level Washington government is still in Washington, headed by Franklin, hopes to put pressure on the high-level of Washington through uninterrupted military operations and not give them a chance to escape from Washington.

Ye Han thought for a while and asked, "What is the current situation of Mi Jun?"

"It's fine, it's like that." Lin Yi said, "This group of young master soldiers in the United States has performed well. ”

"It's a bit unexpected." Ye Han said approvingly.

The Mi army has still not been able to catch the small tail of the high-level in Washington, and the continuous military operations have made the Mi soldiers very tired, with Ye Han's understanding of the Mi soldiers, the troops participating in the war are close to the collapse of the high-voltage line, if it is replaced by an ordinary Mi army, I am afraid that some people will not be able to withstand the pressure and collapse.

After all, the young master soldiers of the United States are not the domestic troops known for their strict training, and the spiritual endurance of ordinary soldiers is indeed not as good as that of their domestic counterparts.

That is, the Hell Paratroopers, an elite force that only needs volunteers, can hold out until now in this situation.

Lin Yi flipped through the communication records: "The reinforcements of the Mi people should be coming soon, right?"

The situation in Washington is becoming more and more unfavorable to the new government of the United States, but the lunar side has no intention of stopping Operation Thunder, but has been in frequent contact with the United States, and it is not known what exactly has been discussed, but the relationship between the United States and the international base is ambiguous, and it is estimated that it is only a matter of time before the United States forces defect to the new government, or the two jointly form a new government.

The northern capital is happy to hear about this, and in the current situation, a unified rice country is only good for the northern capital, and there is no harm.

It was based on this that Lin Yi made the judgment that reinforcements were about to arrive in Washington.

Ye Han pulled the corners of his mouth noncommittally: "The ghost only knows...... Forget it, the people of the United States don't want to say, what kind of leisure are we doing? ”

Lin Yi was about to speak, when the Mi battleship not far away suddenly started its engine, the light in the battleship engine flickered, and the heavy battleship slowly accelerated and changed its orbit to the southwest.

Ye Han also noticed the changes in Mi Jun, and couldn't help but be a little curious: "What's the situation?"

Lin Yi looked at the communication record and raised his head blankly: "I don't know!"

At this time, the second American battleship started its engine and formed a two-ship formation with the previous battleship.

Ye Han's brows furrowed deeply.

The United States sent a total of four warships, and suddenly transferred two of them, what happened? And it seems that there is no meaning of changing orbit, which is very intriguing - the orbit height is one of the important operational data of the battleship, and the combat intent of the battleship can be judged by the height.

Take the Ningwuguan as an example, the current orbital altitude is 400 kilometers, and it is always hovering over Washington, that is, it has no altitude or speed, and it is obviously carrying out a ground support mission.

In other words, the two Mi warships that left are still carrying out ground support missions, but there is no report from above, where do they need battleship support?

What do you want, at this time, Lin Yi received an emergency communication from Beiyuezhou, he didn't even dare to ask, and directly transferred the communication to Ye Han.

The signal was connected, and the lifelike Wu Han appeared in front of Ye Han, and Ye Han immediately saluted: "Chief!"

Wu Han returned the salute and said solemnly: "In case of emergency, turn around immediately and follow the Mi warship!"

"Yes!" Ye Han agreed and passed the order to Lin Yi.

Lin Yi immediately sounded the alarm, immediately started the main engine, and the Ningwuguan accelerated to follow behind the side of the Mi Guo battleship.

After conveying the order, Ye Han immediately asked, "Chief, what's wrong?"

Wu Han said: "I just received a report from the international base that the insects attacked Oak Ridge and captured a group of experts, and the Mi army has launched a rescue operation, and at the same time asked us to send troops to assist in rescuing the captured experts and scholars."

"Oak Ridge?" Ye Han blinked, "This place sounds familiar!"

Wu Han sighed helplessly: "Oak Ridge National Laboratory, which was originally part of the Manhattan Project, researched nuclear weapons, do you have any impressions?"

Ye Han suddenly realized: "There is, it turns out to be that place!"

He was indeed unfamiliar with Oak Ridge, but how could he not know about the famous Manhattan Project? It was a super-plan that invented nuclear weapons, changed the course of World War II, and then affected the global landscape.

How big is its impact?

Because of their huge nuclear arsenals, both the United States and the former Soviet Union had the power to destroy the earth, thus forming a Cold War pattern of East-West confrontation, which lasted until the collapse of the former Soviet Union.

Without nuclear weapons, the confrontation between the East and West camps could well develop into a third world war.

Although the war has not died out, the main theme of peaceful development after World War II has been the main theme of mankind's science and technology in the past half century.

If nothing else, let's talk about space battleships, the engine is nuclear technology; Energy is nuclear technology; Nuclear warheads in missiles or nuclear technology!

It is no exaggeration to say that there would be no space fleet without nuclear technology, and the source of all this is the Manhattan Project!

Of course, nuclear technology is not a panacea, but without the support of nuclear technology, mankind would never be able to get to this point, and even if it went into space, it would not be possible to establish a permanent base on the moon, let alone build the moon into what it is today.

Against aliens? Don't think about it so much, obediently let the aliens enslave you may still be able to live.

Everything flashed in Ye Han's mind, like a lightning strike in his heart-Oak Ridge started with the study of nuclear weapons, and the aliens captured a group of experts and scholars......
