"The remains of a controlled fusion reactor have been found in Xizhou City?"

When he learned this news from Chu Guang, Yin Fang's face suddenly showed a surprised expression.

Chu Guang nodded.

"We already have the relevant insiders and the approximate location of the reactor, and the information is most likely reliable."

Rescuing his surprised expression, Yin Fang thought for a moment and spoke.

“…… Backup reactors in the underground transportation network, this is terrible news. But even if it is an intact fusion reactor, it has not been started for more than 200 years, and it wants to be repaired...... I'm afraid it's not an easy thing to do. ”

"And, what are you going to do with the most critical fuel?"

Conventional fusion reactors are fundamentally different from those in shelters. This difference is not only reflected in the size of the fuel rods, but also in the design of the entire unit.

One is as a substitute for public facilities, and the other is the energy core of permanent fortifications, the former pursues energy efficiency, while the latter pursues durability.

Even if the reactor is shut down for more than a century, or even two centuries, the reactor in the shelter can still be restarted after the fuel rods are inserted.

But conventional reactors ......

There is a high probability that after decades of shutdown, it will not be able to start up normally.

In addition to restarting the reactor, there is a more critical issue, and that is the fuel of the reactor.

80% of the controllable fusion reactors on the land of the People's Union use the third-generation controlled fusion technology with completely safe reaction process and products, that is, fusion reactions realized by two helium threes. The process releases a lot of energy without producing any neutrons.

The problem, however, ......

If you want to mine helium-3 on a large scale, there are only two options.

Either to Mercury or to the Moon.

Either way, it's a bit impractical for the new league at this stage.

After listening to Yin Fang's concerns, Chu Guang thought for a moment and said.

"Don't worry about repairing the reactor, according to the information obtained from the front, the No. 101 Vault in Xizhou City is carrying out repair work on the reactor, and it is clear that the residents of the shelter have the relevant technology to repair the reactor...... Or they are experts in the field themselves. ”

Yin Fang nodded.

"This speculation is reasonable."

After a pause, Chu Guang continued.

"For the same reason, there is no need to worry too much about the fuel, since they believe that there is a need to repair the reactor, then there is a high probability that they already have the fuel needed to start the reactor, or...... At least the coordinates of the fuel were mastered. ”

Yin Fang's eyes lit up.

"It makes sense, if the fuel problem can't be solved, it's useless to fix the reactor, and they won't have to bother with me."

"So the key now is to get in touch with Vault 101," a smile spread across Chu Guang's face, "If we expel the looters of Xizhou City and properly settle the local survivors, we should be able to gain their trust." ”

Although the doors to Vault 101 have been reopened, it is believed that the other party will retain the ability to observe the ground in order to determine when the next door will open.

However, it is unknown exactly how the observation was made, and the situation in each shelter is very different.

Just as Chu Guang was thinking about how to contact the other party, Yin Fang on the side suddenly poured cold water.

“…… That being said, but I think it's better not to be too optimistic. ”

Chu Guang looked at him.

"Why?"

Yin Fang shrugged his shoulders and continued.

"If you've been in contact with Blue Coat, you'll know that they're a group of opinionated and difficult guys to communicate with. If they decide that the current surface conditions are not suitable for rebuilding, they will go straight into the hibernation pod and lie down until the next century. ”

It seems that he realized that he had fired a map cannon and gave his boss to AOE, Yin Fang immediately added a sentence later.

"Of course, I'm not talking about you...... You're an exception. ”

Hearing this, Chu Guang couldn't help but smile.

"It's okay, even if you count me in, I don't really care."

After a pause, he continued.

"Poor communication is a problem, but we have to give it a try."

After all, it's a controlled fusion reactor.

Even if the remaining fuel reserves can only last for twenty years, or even ten years, it will save a lot of time for the new alliance to develop.

Players from the old era and blue jackets who have mastered the core technology can solve some of the development problems in their respective areas of expertise.

But if you want to achieve corner overtaking, you still have to rely on the old book of the era of the People's Union.

Leaving the office of the scientific expedition team, Chu Guang stood on the elevator to the B4 floor of the refuge, returned to the sofa in the browsing room and sat down.

It took ten minutes for Chu Guang to edit a document on the reinforcement plan on the computer and give instructions to various departments.

"The first batch of relief supplies is mainly food, medicine and a small number of weapons, and the airdrop plan is carried out by the H-1 'Dragonfly' project team of No. 81 Steel Plant."

"In addition, the new alliance will set up a temporary office in Hope Town, Xizhou City, to complete the work of population statistics, household registration information, supply distribution, and survivor assistance."

Not only the supplies, but also a few managers had to be parachuted in. Now that Hope Town has become part of the Alliance, it is naturally impossible for the Alliance to leave them alone.

This includes the training of guerrillas, the rebuilding of the management system, the handling of logistics, etc...... These efforts will be carried out as aid arrives.

As for the candidates for the office.

Chu Guang pondered for a moment.

It is better for this person to have a sufficient understanding of Xizhou City, and also have some experience in resettlement and managing displaced people.

Most importantly, he must stand firmly on the new alliance and not be entangled by the old network of local connections.

Combining these elements, Chu Guang suddenly thought of a suitable candidate.

……

North of Dawn City.

Homeless House Apartments.

Since taking over more than 600 survivors from Qingshi County, the space here, which is not always redundant, has been overcrowded.

In order to solve the problem of manpower shortage, the Logistics Department recruited a group of literate survivors with some management experience from among the displaced people to serve as assistant managers.

As the leader of the displaced people in Xizhou City, Ma Ban was naturally recruited into the team of assistant management personnel and trained as a reserve talent.

Maban has always worked very seriously.

Not only because many of these accepted displaced people were his compatriots, but also because he was eager to integrate into the New Alliance through this work.

They are a group of homeless people.

A new alliance willing to accept them is their only recourse.

Even if the Chewing Bone Tribe is defeated, it is impossible for them to return to Xizhou City to live, where there is no place for them.

However, what Ma Ban did not expect was that he had only been appointed as the assistant manager of the homeless home for less than two months before he received an order from the logistics department.

And it's also about the appointment of his hometown.

“…… Let me be the director of the Alliance's office in Hope Township? After listening to old Luca's words, Maban was stunned.

Looking at Maban with a surprised face, Old Luca nodded and said in a serious tone.

"That's what the manager meant."

Maban couldn't help but ask.

"I know it's the manager's order, but why...... It's me. ”

Luca continued.

"The manager said that you know enough about the situation in Xizhou City, and he needs a manager who knows enough about the local situation to work on behalf of the new alliance."

Hearing this, Ma Ban's face couldn't help but have a bitter smile.

"I do understand the situation in Xizhou City, but ...... My relationship with the Xizhou City Resistance is not very good. ”

If the relationship is good, he will not wander south with his people.

Seeing through the concerns in Ma Ban's heart, old Charlie continued.

"You don't have to worry about this, from now on you represent the new alliance, not you and your people. We will send someone to assist you in your work, you just need to do what we tell you to do well in the rescue and resettlement of survivors. ”

Hearing that the new alliance would send someone to help him, Maban finally breathed a sigh of relief in his heart.

If the people there don't cooperate with you, even if you understand their situation, it's useless.

Now there is one last question left.

"Now that the road to Xizhou City has been blocked, how can I go back?"

Although there were lion's teeth in Qingshi County before, the road from Xizhou City to Qingquan City was not completely blocked, and it was no problem to bypass the forest outside the county seat while it was dark.

But now it's not possible.

Songlinyu has become the front line, and the high ground on both sides is densely packed with trenches, and trying to slip under the noses of marauders is tantamount to dreaming.

Old Luca said with a smile.

"Don't worry about this, we've got a plane for you."

"Airplanes?"

Ma Ban was stunned, and suddenly a hint of foreboding suddenly arose in his heart.

It didn't freak him out for long.

As the elder Luca's next sentence came out, his hunch quickly became a reality.

"That's right, you will arrive in the sky above Xizhou City in the new alliance's latest equipment, H-1, and the elite of the Guards Corps will take you to parachute."

Hearing this, Ma Ban was stunned.

"Wait, I never skipped -"

As if guessing that he would say that, old Luca gave him a relaxed smile and patted him on the shoulder comfortingly.

"Don't worry, the Guards are the cronies of the Administrators, and they are professionally trained paratroopers. You don't need to worry about landing, you just need to obey the order and set off with your luggage and appointment letter! ”

Maban: "??? ”

……

Late at night.

The airport in the north of Dawning City.

A propeller plane with a length of nearly twenty meters slowly drove onto the runway.

Compared with the "little sparrows" in the hangar, whose average length is only five or six meters, this big guy named the H-1 "Dragonfly" is obviously more like a serious aircraft.

The three-seater electric motor provides ample power, and the A3 aluminum alloy chassis allows it to be better protected against small arms fire while remaining lightweight.

Although it is not as maneuverable as the Goblin Technology W-2, it has better cruise speed and endurance on long flights.

Whether it's long-distance transportation or strategic bombing missions, it's capable of easily handling them.

Even according to the requirements of the managers, it was easy to install 37mm guns on the sides of the fuselage to provide close fire support for ground forces.

"Brothers, let the little flies of Goblin Technology see what professionalism is! What is a real airplane! ”

"Whoa!"

At the airport, the players of Factory 81 let out a vigorous cry and sent the only young player among them who had touched the plane in real life as a pilot.

As for the co-pilot, one of the factory directors - [Ya'er I want to go to the toilet] is the candidate.

The H-1 Dragonfly is a two-seater aircraft, and although it is theoretically possible to carry a single load, it is better to put something in the co-pilot's seat to balance the weight.

Although Brother Toilet Suo has never flown a plane, it is still no problem to sit in the passenger seat and make up the numbers.

"Big brother, can you do it?"

Wearing a pilot's cap, the toilet brother sitting in the passenger seat said nervously while fastening his seat belt.

The H-1 cost more than 10 times as much as the W-2, especially since this aircraft was the only prototype at the 81st Steel Plant.

Although they had already undergone many tests before this to ensure that the big guy could fly, it was the first time to go to the front line to carry out a mission, and he could not be nervous.

"Don't ask Lao Tzu if it's okay, remember to stop if you can't stand it. Just this propeller plane, the speed of 400 per hour can't be broken, what can be difficult to drive," [unprofessional anti-steamed bun] hehe smiled, held the joystick with both hands, and stepped on the electric door to the bottom, "Sit tight!" ”

A huge thrust came from his back, and he was caught off guard, and Brother Yasuo was pressed directly on the seat.

"I'm going to ask, where the hell did you drive?"

“2042！”

“？”

"Hahaha, just kidding...... Ahem, it's actually war thunder. ”

“？？？”

The muscles of his whole body tensed, and his eyes widened, staring intently at the speed dial, watching the plane accelerate to the maximum.

With the roar of the propellers, the landing gear left the ground, and the "dragonfly" with its wings stretched out raised its huge head and finally rose smoothly into the sky.

Looking at the ground outside the cabin, Brother Suo's beating heart finally calmed down a little and breathed a sigh of relief.

"It feels like flying a plane is pretty easy."

Of course, the main thing is that this guy really knows a little bit.

As for what happened in the war thunder, it should be.

Brother Mantou smiled.

"Right? Why don't you have a meeting? ”

As he spoke, he let go of the joystick.

The fuselage was slightly tilted, and Brother Toilet Suo, who had just breathed a sigh of relief, was so frightened that he hurriedly grabbed the handrail welded to the cockpit and exclaimed.

"Holy! Don't mess around. ”

"Hahaha, don't be nervous, I'll just make a joke." The pig's nose snorted, and the steamed bun grinned evilly and grabbed the lever, and with a slight pull, skillfully straightened the inclined fuselage back.

Brother Toilet glared at the guy fiercely.

MMP！

I'll let you open your surname next time!

"One thing to say, the material of this plane is really hard, damn, it's really special to use on a propeller plane!" Holding on to the joystick, the Mantou brothers were still chattering and beeping.

Not bothering to pay attention to this guy, Brother Toilet reached out and turned on the communication switch.

Clearing his throat, he said solemnly.

"This is a dragonfly, and we've taken off...... How far are you from your destination? ”

Accompanied by a cacophony of electricity, a familiar voice can be heard in the communication channel.

"We've arrived, and we're waiting for you...... What about you? And how much longer. ”

"We're already on our way, within about twenty minutes."

"Don't rush, stay safe."

"Roger, we'll take note!"

It's not just the toilet brother who is sitting in the passenger seat, but also Ma Ban who is tied to the seat in the cabin.

Feeling the vibration of the seat beneath him, every cell in his body trembled. Especially when the fuselage tilted in an instant just now, it almost scared his soul away.

Not to mention his first skydive, he was even flying for the first time.

From the moment he got on the plane, he panicked.

"I always feel like this plane is going to fall apart!"

"Take it easy, it's over soon, it's not that exaggerated." Lu Bei, who was sitting next to him, had a very calm expression, and even comforted him.

However, this sentence did not serve a comforting effect, but made Ma Ban even more nervous.

What the hell is it going to end soon?!

Is this about skydiving?

In addition to the two, there were four other people sitting on the plane.

In addition to sending supplies to Hope Town, the flight was accompanied by three Awakened Guards of the Guards Regiment and three logistics department managers.

As early as a month ago, the soldiers of the Guards Regiment were trained to parachute at the airport, and now they are already paying off.

Tandem skydiving is one of the training subjects, and as long as the person who is tied to the body does not move, there is basically no major problem.

Maban's mind was in a state of confusion.

At this moment, an alarm bell rang in the cabin, and his nerves tensed instantly.

"What's going on?!"

"Don't be nervous, we're almost at the position," Lu Bei threw him a nylon buckle, "Take it, I'll tie you to me in a while." ”

Ma Ban stared at this sixteen or seventeen-year-old boy, no matter how you look at it, this guy is just a child, not like a very reliable appearance.

"What, how to tie it?"

Lu Bei said patiently.

"You turn your back to me, and I'll take care of the rest."

……

Night sky.

An airplane with a length of nearly 20 meters flew over Xizhou City and dropped a string of parachutes in the night.

Under the cover of night, a group of guerrilla soldiers, led by four players, quietly approached the box.

Carefully observing the surroundings, Night Ten gestured behind him.

"Safety."

The guerrilla soldiers came out of the darkness and swarmed up to the drop box, dragging it into a side alley.

When they saw the bags of dry food hanging in the drop box, everyone's faces showed surprise, even excitement.

Croissants!

There are also baked and fried wheat crackers!

Many people have only eaten a piece of nutritional paste from noon to now, and when they see the food in front of them, they have begun to swallow saliva.

Yashi also had a surprised expression on his face.

But he wasn't surprised by the contents of the box, but by the size of the box.

"Can a mosquito plane hold so many things?"

A box with a length and width of one meter.

It doesn't look like a mosquito can fit in a small plane.

Lao Bai glanced up at the sky.

"It's not like a mosquito plane...... It was Brother Toilet Suo who was docking with us just now. I heard that Plant 81 is also building airplanes, but it is new equipment that we have never seen. ”

Night Ten was surprised.

"Damn, I didn't see them pretending to be forced on the forum."

Lao Bai smiled and said.

"Who knows, maybe it's trying to hold back the big move."

Walking next to the ecstatic guerrillas, Fang Chang looked at everyone and said.

"You guys get the supplies back first, and we'll pick up a few more people here."

Restraining the excited expression on his face, the guerrilla who led the team looked at him and said.

"Is it okay just a few of you? I'll take a few people with you! ”

"No," Fang Chang patted the assault rifle hanging on his chest and said with a smile, "A few of us are enough, you can wait for us at the entrance of the subway station!" ”

Although he was still a little uneasy in his heart, the guerrilla who led the team still nodded.

"Then be careful yourself."

……

The moment his feet left the cabin, Maban felt as if his heart was frozen, and it wasn't until his feet touched the ground that the manic heartbeat returned to his chest.

As he floated in the air, he thought more than once what would happen if the parachute hadn't opened, and what if the marauders had just seen theirs.

Fortunately, this kind of thing didn't happen......

Slumped on the ground, Ma Ban gasped for breath. It was the first time he had the feeling in his heart that his butt against the ground was so beautiful.

Unbuttoned the nylon buckle, Lu Bei, who was more than ten years younger than him, cut the parachute rope with a dagger, reached out and patted him on the shoulder.

"Get up quickly, the Marauders' patrols will be in trouble in a moment."

As soon as he heard the marauders, Ma Ban's newly relaxed mood instantly tensed, and a spirit jumped up from the ground.

"What do we do now?"

"Go to the assembly point on the map to meet up with the others," took out the Pu-9 submachine gun, Lu Bei said calmly, "A squad of the Burning Corps is already waiting for us there." ”

The whole process of airborne landing was thrilling and dangerous.

All three groups of six people landed.

Looking at these NPCs who were embarrassed but didn't have any major problems, Ye Shi couldn't help but smash his tongue.

"Why are they all right?"

Even after so many parachute jumps, there are still unlucky children in the corps who die in various accidents.

Tempest replied casually.

"Maybe it's because they only have one life, so they practice more seriously."

Night Ten said suddenly.

"Damn, it makes sense!"

If you think about it, that's really the case.

If this game is a little more hardcore, and the level of the sequence is reset directly after death, it is estimated that those who have to pretend to force the card to open the umbrella at the limit distance will be able to converge a little bit......

One night time.

The new alliance airdropped nearly 12 tons of food to Xizhou City, as well as antibiotics, weapons, ammunition and other supplies that were urgently needed in the local area.

The supplies arrived along with three soldiers from the Guards Regiment and three managers from the Logistics Department.

Living up to the expectations of the administrators, Maban took the lead in setting up the alliance office as soon as he arrived in Hope Town, and took over the warehouse and relief work for the displaced people in Hope Town.

Seeing the old acquaintances and the people of the new alliance standing together, Wu Chengyi and the other management of Hope Town were surprised, but they didn't say anything.

Because of the migration, there were some festivals between them, but it was also a helpless move to survive, and the two sides were not to the level of enemies.

On the contrary, after seeing that the survivors of Xizhou City could be reused by the alliance, everyone was relieved in their hearts.

It seems that the manager did not lie to them.

In charge of docking with Ma Ban was Yang Duo, the head of logistics of the resistance organization.

Considering that he was the first official in the management to support the accession, Wu Chengyi felt that there would be less resistance to letting him do the job.

Of course, the most important thing is that the two have had a little friendship before.

Although only a little......

-

(37.6 degrees, a little low-grade fever, I feel better after taking medicine, it should be the flu.) I didn't eat rice balls during the Lantern Festival this year, but I just took medicine...... Say I'm overdrawn enough. It's not that I can't bear it, I usually don't ask for leave. ）
