1340 makes two things clear

Mars, North Pole.

The ground end is firmly fixed in the center of the platform, and the thick cable is pulled straight by centrifugal force, extending from the platform into the distance until it breaks off the ground and finally reaches the sky.

Near the platform, countless engineers waited anxiously, looking at the far end of the cable from time to time.

"Here it is, here comes the car!" A voice echoed in the public channel, and everyone immediately became excited, and their eyes turned to the sky.

"See, see, see, thereβ€”"

Many voices said the same thing, many arms pointed in the same direction, and many saw the silently moving black dot on the cable.

The black dot attached to the cable was so heavy that wherever it went, the cable would sink significantly.

The black dot was extremely fast, and in a few moments, the blurred black dot had turned into a train attached to the cable.

As the distance gets closer, the train that was originally suspended gets closer and closer to the ground, gradually parallel to the ground, and when the cable is close to the ground, the wheels under the train get stuck on the rails without mistake, slowing down like an ordinary train, and finally slowly stopping on the platform.

The soldiers rushed up to their respective posts according to the prior arrangement, and hundreds of engineers counted a group of hard-working worker ants to move the materials in the carriage out of the car as quickly as possible, some were stacked directly in the open air, and some were sent to the warehouse for storage.

Before the first train was emptied, the second train had already entered the station, and after a while, the third train also entered the platform.

Three trains enter the station in a row, this scene is absolutely impossible to appear on the earth, but the rail elevator placed here was originally designed for the earth, and the strength of the cable is designed according to the earth's gravity, so it can withstand the pressure of three trains running at the same time.

However, three is also the limit of this cable, and any more will exceed the limit of the cable, causing permanent damage.

The engineering staff on the platform was even busier, and after a while, the first train was emptied of all the supplies, and the soldiers immediately rushed to the second train to continue carrying the supplies.

By this time, the unloaded train was already on its way home.

Since the rail elevator was built, these three trains have made several trips a day, delivering large quantities of supplies to the Martian North Pole at a speed and efficiency that far exceeded anyone's expectations.

In other words, the speed of transportation is faster than the construction of the base, which has just taken shape, and the supplies sent to the ground are already piling up.

This period of time happened to be the time when Nanzhou took the initiative to provoke, and just when everyone thought that the construction of the Mars base was about to get on track, Jizhou suddenly revised the construction order, suspended the construction of the base, and concentrated all construction forces to build a super cannon.

In this way, the first supercannon on Mars settled in the North Pole, and that day happened to be the time when Gao Kai sank the transport ship into Ceres.

History is always an amazing coincidence, and reality is always more dramatic than the story.

The decision on the Jizhou was unexpected but reasonable, and many people are aware that there is an unusual message behind this change.

Ye Han believes that the direct cause of this result is that the situation in the asteroid belt is unfavorable, although the fleets in the two directions of Ceres and Vesta have done their best, they are far from achieving the goal of containing the enemy.

It is always easier to destroy than to build, and at that time, even if the fleet blocks the enemy army, the Martian base may be greatly damaged, so it is very necessary to build super cannons in advance.

In the blink of an eye, the No. 1 cannon in the North Pole gradually took shape, and everything was so logical.

But at this time, the international fleet suddenly moved, and the gathered personnel returned to the South Pole and airdropped supplies to the South Pole.

This unusual move caught Ye Han's attention, and after Leishan flew around Mars three times, he could already confirm that the group of gringos was building a ground platform for orbital elevators at the south pole of Mars.

Ye Han was very surprised, could it be that the rail elevator made for the international fleet was sent over? But there's nothing in the direction of the earth!

While everyone was talking, the space train returned to the low-orbit dock, and the station started its engines and began to move directly above the North Pole.

Now everyone understands what is sending the rail elevator, and this is especially to send the rail elevator to the South Pole!

The elevator is used by the international fleet, what can be done with the Arctic?

The contradictions between the northern capital and Washington are not a day or two, and the two militaries have a lot of dirt in private, even if it is now the honeymoon period of capacity cooperation, everyone is not willing to harm themselves and others for no reason.

The captains called the Jizhou one after another, and in view of the anger of everyone, Huo Qiang immediately gave the order to hold a meeting, and it only took a few minutes for the captains to sit in the virtual conference room through the panoramic helmet.

After everyone arrived, the light and shadow on the chair at the end of the conference table flickered, and Huo Qiang sat on the chair in the blink of an eye.

With a sharp gaze sweeping over the venue, Huo Qiang said straight to the point: "I called everyone over today, mainly to talk about the rail elevator." I have a general understanding of the situation, and I can guess what you think, but I just think that the rail elevator is ours and should not harm ourselves and others, right? ”

No one spoke, but everyone's faces were a little unnatural.

Of course, there are also those who don't care, if it weren't for the fact that it was not easy to talk about it in private, they would have to poke out their dissatisfaction on the spot.

Huo Qiang stretched out two fingers and said, "I am now clear about two things, one is the problem of the rail elevator, and the other is the next battle plan. ”

"Before talking about the orbital elevator, we must first talk about the project of the Mars base, the construction of the Mars base is imperative, and not only the North Pole, the South Pole should also be put on the agenda, now the North Pole needs the materials are in place, the next step is to send materials to the South Pole, we not only have to build the Mars base, but also to build a super cannon, the materials are not in place, how to build a super cannon?"

Huo Qiang's gaze swept over the venue again, and everyone was honestly silent.

He continued: "Let's just order the fleet, now the asteroid belt and the Mars are all about to empty the battleships, we can't stay here forever, and the earth can't be without the protection of the fleet all the time." When the two sets of super cannons in the north and south are completed, plus the two super cannons on the satellite, even if the fleet is withdrawn, Mars will have a certain self-defense capability, and then there will be no need to tie so many warships here, so the super cannons must be given priority, and the orbital elevator must also be moved to the South Pole, understand? ”

In the end, Huo Qiang was already full of voice.

"Understood!" Everyone stood up at the same time.
