Chapter 23: Defensive Counterattack

"I don't know, but it must have nothing to do with dark matter, we haven't detected dark matter until now, how can it be ......"

"What do you say?" Zhang Tianhe asked George beside him.

Since the landing craft was attacked, George's face turned pale and he didn't say a word, he took a few steps and stood against the wall, at least he could not say anything, but when Zhang Tianhe asked him, he trembled. Sometimes Zhang Tianhe can't figure out where this timidity comes from, the reason why people are afraid is either because he has experienced terrible things, or because he has forced out the timidity hidden in his heart at the end of the day, where did a natural timidity like George come from? He grew up on Mars since he was a child, and at most he has flown to the orbit of Mars, and he has never seen any scary scenes, if it weren't for the Martian Council to let Zhang Tianhe take him, according to Zhang Tianhe's temper, he would definitely not get a person who even struggled to speak on board.

"You're in Earth's orbit, and whatever is below is far away from you, what are you afraid of?"

"You...... Don't talk to me......"

“…… Alas, laborious. Brian, tell me, that movement sounds like a living being......"

"Unlikely, I haven't heard of a creature that can tow a landing craft, it's more of a physics problem......"

"In other words, we were caught in something like a submarine that we couldn't see, and we squeaked and drilled for a long time, and we shook us without getting through, are you inclined to this possibility?"

"I don't know. But it is unlikely to be marine life. Brian said very little, and he looked like a very serious young man.

At this time, the landing craft had already risen to the surface of the sea, soared to a distance of more than ten meters from the sea surface, and stood still in the air. In appearance, it has not changed much, although it has been subjected to inexplicable attacks, but it has not left any traces on its appearance.

Today the weather on Earth is good, the sea is calm, there are only a few tiny waves, it is now noon in the Eastern Hemisphere, and the sun shines on the ocean, reflecting the brilliant brilliance.

Now the problem is that the amount of radiation in the air is not suitable for residence, and in the sea it will be attacked by an unknown enemy, this enemy we can't detect, we can't see it, the only thing we know is that this guy is quite huge.

"We Martians have never been the only ones who bully others, and no one dares to bully us! Come back first, and I'll go down in person!" Zhang Tianhe thought for a long time, and suddenly shouted.

"Return?" Shi Kening asked, Zhang Tianhe ignored him, and then Shi Kening directly started the engine and flew towards the Star.

The more Zhang Tianhe thought about this matter, the more he didn't have a normal heart, he was quite calm when Shu Ermi was anxious to go down before, and he didn't think it was a big deal. Zhang Tianhe has been flying in space for more than ten years, and there are often people who don't have long eyes to shoot at him, this kind of attack mainly comes from the route between Mars and Mercury, Mars can meet most of the conditions of human life, but it lacks some high-precision materials, some metals and rare elements used in aerospace and armament need to be mined by Mercury, so several routes have been formed between Mars and Mercury, and spacecraft come and go every day. Mercury Mining Company was founded by Martians, which is a bit like the relationship between Britain and the United States on Earth, no one wants to go to Mercury, it is also a well-known ghost place in the solar system, at first those pioneers were mostly refugees from the earth, they were easy to be treacherous, turn around and embarrass the Martian government, so fundamentally the relationship between Mars and Mercury is very fragile. Mercury has strategic resources at their disposal, but they are not industrialized and have limited application to these things, but they cannot enjoy or fully enjoy the benefits of Mars when they master such things, which is easy to create an imbalance in mentality. At first, Mercury mining was a shift system, and most of the Martian males had to go to Mercury to serve, and then they returned to Mars and entered the government, and some Mercury people came back, because of the limited labor force, they often went to serve in space, so the people who were engaged in mining slowly were actually soldiers, and the earth refugees were mixed with the Martian originals, and some people used their brains as soon as their thinking was mixed - instead of serving here and there in order to fight for a reproductive right, otherwise they would just grab it directly? We are soldiers, and we are refugees on Earth, isn't it fragrant to grab a Martian woman? It's a big deal if you don't go back, Mercury can live! And so there were predators.

Predators don't have to rob women, they can also grab materials, and when they get their hands on them, they have bargaining chips, not only with Mars, but also with Mercury. There is no death penalty on Mars, and the most painful punishment is nothing more than working in a Mercury prison built by the Martian army, or catapulting you out of the outer solar system. There are two points to explain here, Mercury Mining and Mercury Prison are two different things, in the company you at least have the opportunity to return to Mars to live properly, in prison you can only serve sentences, and all kinds of social problems on Mars are also sent to Mercury, so the top of this chain of contempt is the Martians, the bottom is the Mercury Prison, and there is a Mercury Mining Company in the middle. For the mining companies, they have actually formed their own force, balancing between Mars and Mercury prisons, or arming themselves with this as a bargaining chip, in short, even in space, there are people everywhere who are playing games and messing up the route between Mars and Mercury.

For all kinds of adventurers and predators, the attitude of Martians has always been biased towards kindness, because after all, there are not many human beings, Mars has a population of 200 million, Mercury Mining and Mercury Prison last reported 30 million, and there is no point in fighting and killing again, so for those who do not follow the rules, they will still give him the right to live, as long as you serve your sentence, you can still go to work, to serve, to fight for a reproductive right, as long as you can pass the review......

Sometimes Mercury Mining Company makes profits by letting predators rob, of course, what they want most is Martian technology, thinking that one day Mercury can be built on an equal footing with Mars, but of course this is not possible, Mars will not risk the next human extinction to provide Mercury with core technology, weapons can give you some, can also teach you how to use, but will not teach you how to make it. In the eyes of Martians, the people on Mercury are more like earthlings than Martians, and they are dangerous. However, like everything on Mars, Martians believe that everyone can live in peace as long as they are properly controlled, which is the guiding ideology of peacekeeping and stability, and most of the service on Mars revolves around the route of Mercury.

So now Zhang Tianhe is slowly losing his normal heart, which is related to the fact that he has seen too much evil in space in the past ten years of service, just like the old saying, where there are people, there are rivers and lakes, and there is inequality, this is not enough, take a look at the earth and be gnawed by something I don't know, this gas has to find a place to sprinkle. And since the starry liftoff, he has always had a feeling as if he is being watched and guided by a force that doesn't know where he does anything, and this feeling is a bit bad, and he can't help but want to do something out of the ordinary.

In today's solar system, no one can compare to Mars in terms of physics, and all the small crossfire Martian spacecraft on the Mercury route will take advantage, because the spears they give others will not be able to penetrate their own shields, and they may not be able to penetrate the landing craft in space for them to hit, which is also one of the reasons why Zhang Tianhe wants to hunt down that guy. Most of the time on the Mercury route, the Martian spacecraft are in pursuit, if they penetrate a certain Marauder's spacecraft, it is generally an accident, although accidents are inevitable, but in general, they still catch people back to Mercury Prison a little more, and in the process, without exception, the Mercury spacecraft fires at the Martian spacecraft more often, as if they know that the Martians will control the fire and will not kill them, so they are unscrupulous. It's similar now, and you're attacked while walking, but the other party isn't necessarily human, because after the infrasonic wave is launched, it still slips away, so it's always okay to knock this thing down, right? This evil spirit has been held for too long, and now seems to be an opportunity to vent.

Maybe people are born to destroy something.

"How long does it take to add a sonic radar to a landing craft?" Shi Kening: After they returned, Zhang Tianhe asked Zhou Limin.

"Three or four days......"

"I'm going to wait for you for three or four days?"

"That can't be helped, at least it's going to take so long...... But I don't think it's useful for you to make such a radar! ”

"How?"

"You think, in fact, we just can't see it, it's not that we can't hit it, the principle of sound waves is much more crude than high-energy particles, if an object can be affected by sound waves, it will definitely be able to be penetrated by high-energy particles, it's like hitting people, if fists can work, cannonballs will not work?"

"You're right." Zhang Tianhe thought for a while and said, he didn't raise the bar with Zhou Limin, but the latter was a little unaccustomed to it, "Commander Shu, how did you hit an invisible thing?" ”

"Punch and punch! Just draw it in, get into range, we don't have to see it, just punch it in all directions. Shulmi replied immediately.

"Hit with a particle cannon?"

"Yes, we don't know what we're facing, there's no point in using neutron artillery. We can go down several landing craft at the same time, and if one of the other boats is attacked, we can fire particle cannons around the attacked ship, forming a fire network to cover it. Judging by the power it can tow the landing craft, this must be a big guy, as long as it hits a shot, if Mr. Zhou is right, it can penetrate it, and then it should appear no matter what it is......"

"Okay, that's it. Let's eat first, take a break after dinner, and arrange for a few landing craft to go down together. ”

People walked out one after another, and Zhang Tianhe was about to order something to eat while thinking about the whole thing, and when he turned his head, he found that Jenny Yang was still standing in the corner, looking at him intently.

"You were acting so well just now, George seems to be peeing in his pants...... Didn't scare you, did you? He asked.

"No, I know our ship is sturdy...... But...... I have something I want to say to you. ”

"You say!"

"How did I find out that you are different from when you were on Mars, you have to use lethal weapons at every turn, and you ...... last time This time again......"

"My eldest miss, can Mars be the same as space? Besides, we belong to the defensive counterattack, no matter what it is, no matter how much we hit it, we can't go too far. ”

"But there are many things that cannot be solved by force......

"I don't know anything else, but I know for sure that the guy who attacked our landing craft can solve it by force, there are too many problems, and solving them is the same. Let's go eat! ”
