During the few hours that he was stationed near the Tunguska River, Mu Qianchou had been suppressing the inexplicable sense of foreboding in his heart.
He didn't tell anyone about it.
However, his only direct disciple, Qin Chaoyuan, noticed something strange on Mu Qianchou's face.
Now Xuanyuan Zhan couldn't listen to the teacher's advice. Qin Chaoyuan thought for a moment and said: "Captain Xuanyuan, I think what the teacher said is right. Caution is the best. Who knows whether the information about the American team is a smoke bomb?"
When Xuanyuan Zhan saw Mu Qianchou and Qin Chaoyuan, masters and apprentices, each one more cautious and conservative than the other, he suddenly felt very bored.
He is leading a force of dragons and tigers, so he should attack with dignity and unstoppable force. He has arrived at the location where the mysterious resource was discovered. How can he be timid at this time?
With this thought in mind, Xuanyuan Zhan called all the core experts in the team to come to him.
Then ask a confidant to spread out a map of the ice field on the prepared table.
In the ice and snow, with the cold wind howling, Xuanyuan Zhan pointed to the largest red dot marked on the map and said, "This is the location where the mysterious resource was discovered."
Then his fingers started to move.
"This is where we are right now."
"This, and this, are the locations where the official teams of the United States and Russia are stationed respectively. The distance between them and us is about one thousand meters."
"Currently we don't know the specific reason why Xue'er withdrew from the resource discovery point, but we can be sure that the mysterious resource is not that easy to obtain."
"Right now, the American team is standing still. I plan to take advantage of the time when the American and Russian teams have no action to lead our large forces to the central point to take a look."
The center point mentioned by Xuanyuan Zhan is the place where the mysterious resources were discovered, and it is also the center of the Tunguska explosion.
Hearing what Xuanyuan Zhan said, Mu Qianchou immediately said: "I think we should wait for our reconnaissance team to report back from the central point before we set off."
Half an hour ago, Xuanyuan Zhan sent a second reconnaissance team to investigate the center of the explosion, but they have not returned yet.
Mu Qianchou, who had always been steady, was naturally unwilling to let Xuanyuan Zhan lead a large force to take risks at the central point.
But when Xuanyuan Zhan heard Mu Qianchou's opposition to him, his expression immediately turned ugly: "Teacher Mu, the Xue'er team has already gone to the center, what do we have to be afraid of? The current ice field is a battlefield, and the most important thing on the battlefield is
What is it? Seize the opportunity! Now other official teams are waiting and watching. If we don't take advantage of this great opportunity to enter the center point, we will be in a melee with other teams. I think our Chinese team doesn't need to grab the mysterious resources and just go home.
!”
Xuanyuan Zhan spoke with a temper, which made the core experts in the team feel a little embarrassed.
In fact, these core masters recognized Xuanyuan Zhan as the captain on the surface, but in their hearts they respected Mu Qianchou more.
At this time, an official expert said: "Captain Xuanyuan, why don't we listen to Teacher Mu's suggestion? What's the reason?"
Xuanyuan Zhan thought for a moment, and before he could show his strength to convince these masters, he would give Mu Qianchou some face for the time being.
"According to the analysis of the geological experts in the team, the closer to the location of the Tunguska explosion, the more abnormal the geology, astronomy, climate, magnetic field and other natural factors become. Expert Bai and I discussed the reason why the Snow Russian team was not taken away from the central point
The mysterious resources are likely to be affected by the abnormal environment at the central point."
Mu Qianchou said and glanced at a middle-aged man next to him who came to participate in the discussion.
This man is China's top geological expert, whose surname is Bai.
"Xuanyuan Zhan, when you sent the reconnaissance team to investigate the center point, I asked Expert Bai to tell the reconnaissance team to bring some rocks and sand from the center point back for study. I guess Xue'er, the United States and other official teams are also analyzing the center.
Due to the abnormal environment, all the teams stopped moving forward."
"Because of this, we should be more cautious and wait until the reconnaissance team comes back."
After Mu Qianchou said this, everyone who participated in the discussion nodded in agreement.
This is the most prudent and safe approach.
After all, they were not told by their superiors that they must risk their lives to bring that mysterious resource back to China.
The premise for them to obtain the mysterious resources is to ensure that there are no casualties as much as possible.
Of course, it is not that there are no radicals like Xuanyuan Zhan in the Chinese team.
For example, Hou Longjun from the General Security Bureau is like this, but his status in the team is far inferior to that in the General Security Bureau. Mu Qianchou can crush him to death with just one sentence.
Therefore, Hou Longjun was very anxious and wanted to rush to the center immediately. Now he could only wait for Xuanyuan Zhan to give the order.
Xuanyuan Zhan asked with a gloomy face: "How long will it take for our reconnaissance team to bring back the research materials and let Expert Bai analyze the cause of the abnormal environment at the central point?"
Upon hearing this question, everyone turned their attention to Expert Bai.
Expert Bai deliberated for a few seconds and replied solemnly: "Analysis of the soil quality here will take at least three hours, but if it is slower, it may take more than seven or eight hours."
"So long?" Xuanyuan Zhan immediately frowned, "By the time you finish analyzing, the other official teams have already set off! We might as well let Xue'er and Mi Guo analyze it. There will definitely be no problem following them into the center!
"
"This won't work."
Mu Qianchou immediately rejected it.
"Even if other official teams analyze the cause of the abnormal environment at the center point, we don't know the details of their analysis. What if we encounter a situation that we cannot handle after entering the center point? I think we must remain patient in this matter."
Bang!
Xuanyuan Zhan's anger finally became unbearable, and he slammed the table hard.
"Teacher Mu, are you the captain or am I the captain now? Please always remember that this captain has the final decision-making power of the team!"
Xuanyuan Zhan was only in his twenties, but he soared into the sky and reached the pinnacle of power. He was at the peak of his youth and vigour. How could he hear the words of Jin Mu Qianchou?
Mu Qianchou originally didn't intend to care about the team's affairs, but when he came here, he still wanted to ensure the safety of his juniors.
Now Xuanyuan Zhan's words almost made him fall out with him.
The two top experts in the Chinese officialdom, the old and the new, have so quickly come to a point where they are almost incompatible with each other.
Everyone else present was silent, and no one dared to stand up and persuade him.
"That's it." Mu Qianchou suddenly sighed, "Xuanyuan Zhan, since you want to lead the team into the center point, then do as you say."
"Teacher Mu, if you and your disciples are worried about the abnormal environment at the center, you can stay here." Xuanyuan Zhan's words were somewhat sarcastic.
This is an insinuation that Mu Qianchou and his disciple Qin Chaoyuan were too timid to enter the center of the explosion easily.
Mu Qianchou had lived for such a long time and was too lazy to argue with Xuanyuan Zhan. Of course he had to go with him to prevent anything from happening to these junior masters.
