General Zhang's identity is special, and less than four hours after leaving Ye Jinyu's copy shop, he appeared at the rocket launch center in the Gobi Province next to it.

As soon as he entered the underground command center, General Zhang found that the atmosphere inside was quite tense.

He saw the chief of the air force with a not very good-looking face, quietly approached the side of a naval admiral, and asked softly, "Chief, how is the situation now?" ”

The general was quite familiar with General Zhang, and when he heard the words, he introduced: "The eighth master has flown safely over South America and officially entered North America; Although it didn't fly from Eagle Chan's airspace, the distance wasn't very far either. ”

General Zhang looked at the figure representing the eighth master on the big screen, and the trajectory had already crossed Lao Mo and was flying towards the Tropic of Cancer from the sky over the eastern Pacific Ocean. This area is the traditional territory of Eagle Sauce, and a military aircraft from another country appeared in this generation; I don't know what reaction Eagle Chan will have.

It has always been the plane of the Eagle Sauce family that came to his side to fool around, this time the eighth master appeared in the sky over the open sea hundreds of kilometers away from the Eagle Sauce family, in fact, General Zhang was still a little happy; But it's more about worrying about the eighth master and the test pilots on the eighth master. You must know that as the leader who leads the development of science and technology on this planet, no one knows if the Eagle Sauce family is hiding any black technology.

"Did Eagle Chan react in any way?"

"Yes, our satellites have photographed a very shaped plane taking off from Nevada, and it is flying extremely fast! According to its course, it is coming towards the eighth master; We suspect that it is a Dawn Goddess reconnaissance plane that has only been seen by rumors and has never seen an actual machine, but this time it appeared during the day, but let us take a picture. ”

General Zhang recalled the information of the Goddess of Dawn and said suspiciously: "According to the information we have collected, the flight altitude of this cargo should not reach eighty kilometers, right?" What's the use of it going? ”

The admiral shook his head and said, "It's hard to tell! You also know that Eagle Sauce is quite strict about the secrecy of this product, and the information we collected is already a matter of suspicion, so maybe Eagle Sauce still has some black hands hidden. ”

Then, he added: "Moreover, the troops of the 32nd Army Air Defense and Anti-Missile Command of Eagle Sauce are showing signs of massing towards the west coast, and this unit is equipped with THAAD. Everyone knows that THAAD is a machine that claims to be able to intercept extra-atmospheric aircraft, and it suddenly moves to the west coast, and the goal is self-evident! ”

General Zhang did not expect that not only Area 51 would be dispatched, but even anti-ICBM anti-aircraft missiles would be dispatched.

couldn't help but say: "It seems that the test flight process of the eighth master this time really touched the sensitive nerves of Eagle Sauce." ”

"No, so now everybody's worried; What's even more troublesome is that the eighth master is not in good condition, he has been flying at ultra-high altitude and minus 100 degrees Celsius for ten hours in a row, and the test pilot's physiological load and psychological pressure are very great; According to the pilot's report, now the body of the eighth master has been frozen in many places, and it is estimated that the parts are very seriously damaged at this ultra-low temperature; It's just that I don't know why, but it didn't fall apart. But even if you can fly back, it's basically scrapped; It is still unknown whether they can insist on flying back. ”

Not everyone has the right to know about the force field that comes with the dangling talisman; The reason why the steel parts of the eighth master were not brittle was purely supported by the thin force field of the runes.

If you can't fly back...... The consequences are severe! It is seen as a joke by ill-intentioned people all over the world. I'm afraid that there will be a bunch of flies vying to grab the wreckage of the eighth master, which contains the secret of making salted fish go into space. The secret is big enough to make the Angram-Saxon brothers, two fellow Anglo-Saxons, Eagle Sauce and Niu Niu, turn their faces.

"Is there any plan up there? And if just in case? ”

This in case made the admiral stunned; Everyone is only concerned about whether the eighth master can go home, and no one wants to think about how to remedy it in case it happens.

General Zhang said: "I think we need a rescue plan, we can do without the plane, but we have to keep the people and key equipment; We must not allow the tragedy of August 1192 to be repeated! ”

Hearing 81192, the admiral only felt a surge of blood. This set of numbers has always been a wound and pain in HNA's heart, although more than ten years have passed since this incident, but time has not stopped the bleeding on the wound, and it will not stop until the revenge of that arrow.

Without thinking too much about it, the general asked, "What do you think?" ”

Of course, there are ideas, and General Zhang has been thinking about how to deal with this matter on the way to the rocket launch center.

"Let's go, let's go and sum up with the head of the Air Force!"

While the two were talking, the eighth master had already flown over Lao Mo's airspace and officially appeared at the door of Eagle Sauce's house.

"Tower, hole call; The emergency power supply of our machine is urgent! The communication function is about to be lost. ”

The test pilot's call, like detonating an ice bomb, made the command center stunned!

The roof leak happened to rain overnight, which is the case; Because the main engine has not been turned on for a long time, the generator has not worked, and has been supported by the emergency power supply; Although there are no big power consumers such as radar turned on; But the stored power is still at the last minute. And when he saw that he was at the door of Eagle Sauce's house, it was the most dangerous time, but he was facing the scene of losing contact.

After a while, the head of the Air Force asked in a hoarse voice: "What is the height of the plane now?" How long will it take to return to the South China Sea? ”

"The target altitude is 101,000 meters, the satellite monitoring signal is normal, and the communication is normal. At the current orbit, it is expected to take six to eight hours to fly to the South China Sea. ”

Six to eight hours, how do you survive it?

At this moment, a voice suddenly came: "We can't wait for the eighth master to return to the South China Sea by himself; We need to send a plane to pick up! ”

The sound is not too loud, but in the quiet space, it is extraordinarily bright.

When everyone looked over, they found that it was the famous Zhang Juzuo.

"Answer? How to respond? The head of the Air Force asked in a condensed voice.

General Zhang said: "In two steps; The first step is to go to Midway! ”

Staring at the big screen, General Zhang said: "At the current rate, the eighth master will appear over Midway Island in three to four hours." We can send our Shen Hoy Flanker and carrier-based aircraft to wander around Midway; I've done the math that these two planes can reach a maximum speed of more than Mach 2.35, and if it's any faster, it's no problem to fly 2,800 to 3,000 kilometers an hour. The distance from Shanghai to Midway is only more than 5,000 kilometers, and it can be reached in two hours! ”

The head of the Air Force scolded impatiently: "Are you crazy? What is the maximum range of Shen Hoy's flanker and flanker change? It's only a little more than 4,000 kilometers, and it flies out at an economic speed. If you want to fly for two hours at the fastest speed, it's simply impossible! ”

General Zhang didn't care, and explained: "In the past, of course, this was impossible, but now it's different, think about it, why can the second-generation aircraft of the eighth master fly at an altitude of hundreds of kilometers?" ”

Because there are anti-gravity boards! The head of the Air Force immediately understood. Yuan opened his eyes and said:

"You mean ......"

"That's right, it's an anti-gravity device! This thing can completely make our aircraft lose its own weight, and in the absence of its own weight, the 96 kN thrust of the turbofan 10A can easily push the aircraft to Mach two or three! We even need to slow down to keep the body safe. As for flying more than 5,000 kilometers away, I think it's a very easy task. You might even be able to fly back on your own. ”

The head of the Air Force nodded and agreed with this statement, and the eighth master has proved this possibility by several consecutive test flights.

I only heard General Zhang say again:

"As far as I know, we already have more than 500 pieces of this anti-gravity device in our hands, and if we install a deluxe version of one plane with eight pieces like the Eighth Master, we can arm more than 50 aircraft. Now these anti-gravity circuit boards will be immediately transported to the airports, so that Shen Huoyi can complete the transformation design drawings in the shortest possible time, and transfer them to the ground staff of each airport to complete the modification. ”

The head of the Air Force immediately answered: "Call Shen Huoyi immediately, let their relevant design departments stop their vacations, and find out the best circuit assembly location in the shortest possible time!" ”

After finishing speaking, the head of the Air Force said to General Zhang: "Please continue." ”

General Zhang was also not polite, and said: "We all know that the eighth master is equipped with an anti-gravity device, which itself can float in the air without power, but it has lost its own power, just like a ship without sails, it can only rely on the rotation of the earth to complete the task of returning." In that case, we could have towed it back with another powered plane! Therefore, after our fighter planes flew over Midway Island, we wanted to find the eighth master and then drag the eighth master back. ”

Speaking of this, General Zhang glanced at everyone and said firmly:

"Don't think it's impossible and think that high-speed fighters can't accomplish such a task! But don't forget, we have anti-gravity boards; Since this thing can make the eighth master stay in the air, it can also make the plane acting as a tow plane stay in the air. If both planes are suspended in the air, they are fully capable of completing the work of hitch towing. ”

Is this possible? Maybe.

"That's the first step you said, but what about the second step?"

"The second step is the follow-up response; After all, although the turbofan engine does not use afterburner, it is more fuel-efficient; But none of us have ever flown 10,000 kilometers round trip. Just in case, our tanker should take off synchronously, and it is best to refuel once on the way to and again when you come back; In addition, I think it would be more appropriate to place this refueling location outside the Miyako Strait. ”

"Good! That's it! The head of the Air Force said, and said to the assistant next to him: "Call me, I want to talk to the Great Elder!" We only have three hours, hurry up. ”

Before answering the mobile phone, he said to the admiral next to General Zhang: "This rescue operation still needs the cooperation of the navy." We must not allow our secrets to leak out. ”

The admiral saluted: "We must not let the tragedy of August 1192 be repeated!" ”

By this time, it was already dark;
