1213 Call from afar

The bridge door opened, Ye Han and the others floated into the bridge, fell to their respective positions and sat down, and buckled their seat belts as soon as possible.

Ye Han's voice broke the silence: "Are you all ready?" ”

"That's it!" Everyone spoke in unison

Ye Han took a deep breath: "Thor! ”

The sound spreads, the dark main screen slowly lights up, the track factory appears on the screen, and then rows of large and small screens open one after another, and various chart indices appear one after another.

A mellow but somewhat stiff baritone echoed across the bridge: "Hello Captain, I'm Thor." ”

"Thor, start the engine!" Ye Han said.

"Sorry, I don't have the authority to start the engine." Thor said.

"Where's the thruster?"

"You have to start the engine first."

"Good." Ye Han nodded with satisfaction, "Beiyuezhou, the Leishan is ready, request to leave the port!" ”

Thor is an artificial intelligence just developed by the military, saying that it is artificial intelligence, but in fact it is a voice assistance program of the shipboard computer, which is far from the level of artificial intelligence, and it is almost the same as human-computer voice interaction.

He was worried about what was going on with this thing, so the first thing he did when he entered the bridge was to talk to it.

"Thunder Mountain, you can leave port, good luck."

Ye Han let out a long sigh: "Untie the fixing bolt!" ”

"Bolt unfastened!"

"Start the engine!"

"Engine on!"

"Slow reverse!"

"Reversingβ€”"

The huge Leishan engine flipped over, a bright light flashed in the reaction cavity, and the battleship slowly retreated, while at the same time, the dock unfolded at the right time, and the orbital factory on the main screen gradually moved away.

Half a minute later, the helmsman announced loudly: "Departure is complete!" ”

Ye Han called up the data in the biochip and said in a deep voice: "The right rudder is full, and the upper rudder is twelve." ”

"Full rudder right ......"

The bow of the Thunder Mountain turned to the right and raised at the same time, and the bow of the ship soon deviated from the orbit of the factory, rotating a full ninety degrees.

"Full speed ahead!" Ye Han's calm voice echoed in the bridge, and the thrusters burst out a series of flashes, and the speed of the battleship increased sharply. Quickly drive away from the orbital factory, leaving the moon far behind.

"Salute-" Ye Han, on behalf of all the officers and men of the ship, saluted in the direction of the earth and completed the last ceremony of the new ship's maiden voyage.

From this moment on, the Thunder Mountain was officially delivered to the fleet and entered the combat sequence.

Everything went well, everyone secretly breathed a sigh of relief, Ye Han was still expressionless: "Luo Qi, call the No. 1 base, I want to know all the situation of the base." ”

"Yes!" Luo Qi agreed, adjusted the antenna to the Ceres, "Thunder Mountain calls Base 1, please answer ...... if you receive it"

"Stop!" Ye Han helplessly stopped, "You call it that, how long does it take to say a word?" You tell them to get back as soon as they receive it, and go through everything in as much detail as possible. ”

Luo Qi is very aggrieved, I originally thought so!

But he couldn't explain it, so he could only call a few more times according to Ye Han's words, and after stopping calling, he looked at Ye Han: "Commander, do you want to say something else?" ”

The crew on the Leishan was all hand-selected by Ye Han, and all the posts that the soldiers could be qualified for were transferred from the airborne division, and only those particularly technical positions such as aviation, equipment, and marine engineering were transferred from the fleet.

As a result, the soldiers habitually called Ye Han Division Commander, and the personnel transferred from the fleet called him Captain, as long as they listened to the title, they knew which unit they originally belonged to.

Ye Han thought for a while and said, "Tell them, if you have the conditions, observe Ceres and report the situation together." ”

"Yes!" Luo Qi notified Base No. 1 according to Ye Han's intentions, and then there was a long wait.

Ceres is 2.7 AU from the Sun, which means that the closest distance between the Earth and Ceres is 1.7 AU, and it takes a full fourteen minutes for radio waves to depart from the Moon and reach Base One!

If you ask and answer a question, it takes half an hour to say a word, you don't do anything for a day, and you can't say a few words just by guarding the radio.

The battleship is getting farther and farther away from the earth, but everyone's hearts are getting tighter and tighter with the passage of time, and seeing that half an hour has arrived, everyone's hearts are almost in their throats.

A window suddenly popped up on the screen in front of Luo Qi, and he immediately shouted: "Division Commander, there is news!" ”

"Open!"

"Yes!" Luo Qi clicked a finger on the screen, the file opened, and everyone immediately heard a hoarse voice: "Thunder Mountain, I am the No. 1 base, the alien battleship is still outside, we have closed the exit to temporarily block the aliens, but we are also isolated from the outside world, we don't know the situation outside, and we don't know how long we can last...... We had plenty of supplies and enough air, but we didn't want to sit still, and we were going to dig a passage from the other side and find an opportunity to escape, and that's how it was now...... We can't see Ceres, we don't know what's going on over there, over. ”

Ye Han was speechless for a long time, and his eyebrows twisted into a pimple.

He had already learned about Base One, which was not a small asteroid, mainly made of olivine, and it was a whole piece of olivine, a hard and intact texture that was very beneficial for building the base.

If it weren't for the thick layer of rock on the outside of the base, Base One would have been breached by aliens long ago.

However, the rock formation can only stop the aliens for a while, and as long as the aliens continue to attack, it will not take long to penetrate the rock formation.

It may be a good idea to break through an asteroid and find another way to escape, but beyond the asteroid is space, and even if you escape from the asteroid, can you still escape the pursuit of aliens?

Ye Han suddenly felt a headache and couldn't help but rub his temples.

Luo Qi felt that Ye Han was not in the right state, so he asked softly, "Master, what's wrong with you?" ”

Ye Han waved his hand: "I'm fine, I want to do the matter of Base No. 1." ”

Luo Qi didn't dare to speak nonsense, and cautiously tested: "It's really troublesome." ”

Ye Han sighed: "In this way, you tell them that unless they are sure that the aliens are evacuated, they can't leave in a lifeboat, it's best to dig a secret room and hide in it, if it doesn't work, they will blow up the base, and it's safer to hide in the pieces than in a lifeboat...... It's all about infrastructure construction over there, so directional blasting should be no problem, right? ”

What he was thinking about now was not how to keep Base No. 1, but how to get people out.

Asteroids can be found again, and it is not a big problem if people are gone, for fear that someone will fall into the hands of aliens.

As for Base No. 1, it's just like that, it does have a lot of strategic significance, but if it falls into the hands of aliens, the strategic significance belongs to the enemy, and it is better to blow it up directly before the aliens occupy the magpie's nest.

Luo Qi didn't know what to say, although this method was not perfect, it was also a feasible plan, much better than directly chiseling through the asteroid and escaping.

He couldn't help but glance at Ye Han, he could even come up with this method, how did people grow up in this brain?
