Never regard elites who are at the top of the world as fools.
They may be bad, but they are never stupid.
Facts have proved that many years before astronomers discovered meteorites, the leaders of various countries in the world knew what the main contradiction was. World hegemony and other things must be put aside. Everyone must join forces to think of countermeasures to avoid
His home was destroyed.
In this era, it is obviously a fantasy to consider emigrating to space and abandoning our homeland, so the only way to think about it is to solve the threat of this extraterrestrial meteorite.
The "Stonehenge" now in front of everyone is one of the final results of this series of thinking.
One large and six small, a total of seven large electromagnetic rail guns, with the big gun as the center and the small guns distributed on the circumference, standing on a circular base that covers an area comparable to a city.
Each of these seven electromagnetic railguns is capable of accelerating and launching special metal projectiles faster than the fastest missiles currently available. When the meteorite contacts the atmosphere, it will hit the seemingly solid but actually extremely fragile meteorite.
Based on clever calculations, people have speculated the time when the meteorite contacted the planet's atmosphere and estimated its corresponding location.
The moment the meteorite contacts the atmosphere and slows down, it is the perfect opportunity for Stonehenge to show off its power.
The main gun located in the center of the dome base will be responsible for crushing the entire meteorite when it enters the atmosphere, and the six small guns guarding the main gun will be responsible for crushing the larger fragments after the meteorite breaks.
Avoid damage where possible.
According to this plan, when the meteorite is shattered, a small number of fragments will lose the ability to continue to penetrate the atmosphere and will fly away from the planet like water. There will also be a large number of small fragments that will pass through the atmosphere.
Burned, only a few lucky ones can eventually fall on this planet.
Losses are inevitable.
But it is better for a small meteorite to hit some places than a world-destroying meteorite.
And this is the Stonehenge project.
After careful calculation, verification, and deduction, the entire plan was determined to be feasible. Then the empire took the lead, integrating resources from nearly the world, and began construction.
According to astronomers' speculation, the meteorite will contact the atmosphere north of the equator, and the dome base is located at a suitable distance to fire at the airspace where the meteorite will appear.
And this most suitable location, a large island on the equator, falls under the jurisdiction of the empire, so even Asia - before being hit by a small meteorite and withdrawing from the plan - was unwilling to do so and had to build this
The task of leadership was given to the Empire.
Naturally, the empire would not live up to the expectations of so many countries. Even if Asia was later eliminated in name only among the participating countries in the project due to various reasons, the empire did not give up on advancing the project.
As of now, the entire Stonehenge has been 90% completed, and the final construction work is just short of completion.
The supporting dome base has been completed.
Meteorite is coming soon, and people on this planet are also ready to deal with it.
Therefore, in order to prevent accidents from happening, the empire decided to station itself in the dome base and use its powerful military force to ensure that everything goes smoothly in the Stonehenge project.
Of course, there are also troops from other countries stationed at the dome base, but they will arrive at the base a few days before the meteorite arrives. These are beside the point.
"It seems that your guess is right this time. The big shots above really have a plan to deal with it."
Wang Yu looked at Luo Yu and spread his hands: "I am willing to admit defeat."
Luo Yu smiled: "Write down the conditions first and talk about them later."
Liu Lingxin looked at the two of them and frowned, feeling that things were not simple.
But she didn't plan to say anything more. Instead, she turned her gaze back to the superior officer on the stage who kept drinking water because of what he had just talked about.
"So, the purpose of the empire asking us to station in the dome base is to allow us to protect this so-called Stonehenge project?" she asked.
"Yes, that's right." The officer explained: "The above means that all troops entering and exiting the dome base will need to protect Stonehenge with their own lives, because the plan will not be able to withstand any mistakes as it reaches a critical moment, especially
In this case, once Stonehenge is seriously damaged, we will not be able to repair it before the meteorite comes."
"Who will come to destroy it?" Wang Yu asked curiously.
"I also have this curiosity. Didn't it mean that all countries in the world worked together to build it?" Murong Lan also asked: "Is there anyone who would rather see the destruction of this planet?"
"The countries participating in the project are naturally willing to see Stonehenge play its role." The officer sighed: "But some countries are not necessarily..."
He sighed while showing everyone a deduction animation.
"This is the fall trajectory of the meteorite after it was shattered and the expected disaster area deduced by the engineering department. You can take a closer look."
So everyone turned their attention to the screen and looked at the simple deduction animation.
In the animation, red meteorites contact the atmosphere, and then are ruthlessly shattered by Stonehenge's electromagnetic cannon, turning into a large number of fragments. Then these "meteor showers" pierce the sky, and finally fall in an arc...
Asia mainland and southern regions.
Wang Yu and others were silent for a long time.
Naturally, they will not doubt the deduction results of the Stonehenge engineering department. This is the conclusion reached by the world's top scholars, which proves that the meteorite will eventually fall and be shattered, and the trajectory of its fragments will be consistent.
The meaning this animation wants to express is already very clear.
"What evil did Asia do?"
Murong Lan was the first to comment.
The rest of the people nodded in agreement with her comments.
It is true that Asia is so unlucky. Even though Stonehenge brought hope to human civilization, the result of this deduction gave Asia despair.
Although the emergence of Stonehenge saved the planet from ecological extinction and preserved most of the planet's transitions, the fragments produced after the meteorite was shattered will cover the entire territory of Asia without any bias.
Although many of them will be small fragments that fell into the crater a few meters away, they definitely contain some small meteorites that are similar in scale to the meteorite attacks that Asia suffered before.
After this wave of debris attacks, Asia's industry, economy, people's livelihood, etc. will directly regress to the levels of the early last century.
This superpower before the war would not even be stronger than those small countries in the north after the meteorite attack.
"Is Asia's withdrawal from the Stonehenge project related to this reason?" Luo Yu asked carefully.
"It has something to do with it. Most of them are sensible. Even if a meteorite destroys most of Asia, it will not stop the construction of Stonehenge. Their withdrawal plan is mainly caused by the economic problems in Asia."
The officer shook his head: "After the first meteorite hit them on the head, their government collapsed the economy, and the Stonehenge plan was a gold-eating beast. Even the economy of the empire was affected, let alone them. At that time
Asia really can’t pay a penny anymore.”
"So...Asia doesn't want to interfere with the construction of Stonehenge?"
"The current government of Asia is basically acquiescing to the construction of Stonehenge. Naturally, they can't do such a thing as 'I want to die and you can't live.' So they simply stopped providing funds for Stonehenge and transferred the funds to Stonehenge.
It's just used to build the country's evacuation shelters." The officer explained the thinking of the current Asia government: "They are already making emergency plans based on the results of this deduction, including moving a large number of existing things to the evacuation bunkers.
Nationals who entered the bunker were relocated to safe areas, etc."
"So what might be a threat to Stonehenge?"
"Of course they are people from Aisia. Of course, they are part of Aisia." The officer recalled what he knew: "You also know that the northern coalition actually won the victory in the Aisia War, so...
Well, the anti-defeated group, which should be called the anti-defeated group, was naturally very dissatisfied with this result. After the war, they, a group of federal officials and army officers, actually controlled major military bases in the western Asia region. It can be said that they had enough
military power."
"You mean these guys are going to attack Stonehenge?"
"It's hard to say, but I guess even if they launch an attack, they will not come to destroy Stonehenge, but to seize control of Stonehenge. You must know that Stonehenge can not only attack meteorites." The officer shrugged: "In the meteorite crisis,
Afterwards, this thing will be a strategic weapon that can project artillery shells thousands of kilometers away at high speed, so these anti-defeat groups are naturally unwilling to let Stonehenge be controlled by us."
After saying this, the officer thought for a moment and then added something.
"Oh, by the way, of course we can't rule out that the members of Asia's radical organization thought that Stonehenge could not protect them like it protects other countries, so they broke the pot..."
Wang Yu twitched the corner of his mouth.
He always felt that these two reasons were unconvincing. The radicals in Asia wanted to risk the world's disapproval to seize Stonehenge. Even if they just wanted to control Stonehenge, they would also face pressure from the whole world.
Do they really dare to attack Stonehenge?
"Whether they dare or not, the defense of Stonehenge must exist."
Perhaps seeing Wang Yu's doubts, the officer explained: "Because the construction location of Stonehenge is located overseas far away from the mainland of the empire, so for us, there are limits to the military power deployed there, and we don't want the Stonehenge to be built overseas."
The formation is damaged in any way. And Asia has naturally seen this. If they really want to capture Stonehenge, they may really be able to succeed as long as they invest overwhelming military power in a short time and use Stonehenge to make us take the bait.
.”
"After capturing Stonehenge, use the security of Stonehenge to threaten other countries, or else we will all be destroyed by meteorites?"
The officer nodded.
Wang Yu suddenly understood what the officer meant. Asia is now in a state where everything can be sent anyway, so they are barefoot and not afraid of wearing shoes. Controlling Stonehenge can control the absolute right to speak for a period of time after the meteorite crisis is over.
, so that Asia, which was in a mess after the disaster, would not be divided among various countries.
On the contrary, other countries involved in the construction of Stonehenge, once Asia attacks Stonehenge and takes control of it, in order to prevent Asia from being defeated, they can only acquiesce in Asia's control of Stonehenge.
Looking at it this way, the calculations of the radical groups in Asia are quite clear!
No one uses weapons of mass destruction. If they really have enough military power, it seems that they can actually implement this plan.
So thinking about it this way, it seems that there is no time to delay in garrisoning troops at the "Dome" base.
No wonder the empire wants to send its most elite pilots there. Facing the isolated islands overseas, the air force really needs to occupy a major position.
In short, everyone in Polaris Squadron now understands the Stonehenge plan, understands the possible threats, and naturally understands their mission.
Their superiors instructed them to leave Gensokyo Base recently, pass through several transit bases, and finally arrive at the Dome Base.
There their responsibilities will be further allocated.
The officer introduced them to some insider information about the Stonehenge project and the dome base, and then announced their disbandment.
Wang Yu and the others then returned to their dormitories and began to pack their bags.
This mission is definitely a long-term mission. There is still a long time before the meteorite falls. They must stay there until the meteorite crisis is over.
Fortunately, according to the superiors, the dome base was jointly built by countries around the world. It is of high quality and has a very good standard of living.
So it seems that staying there for a long time is not a chore.
The superiors even directly said that when there is no need to carry out flight missions, everyone in the Polaris Squadron can even treat this mission as a recuperation.
Now we are about to enter another winter, and the warm climate on the equatorial island is better than the colder weather in Gensokyo base day by day.
So, in the early morning of the third day after the meeting, three fighters of the Polaris Squadron began their flight south.
The flight route map has been planned for a long time. The three fighters need to land at several airports for supplies, and the pilots also need to rest. For this flight, the empire has given the highest access permission, that is, they can fly freely within their flight area.
, as long as you arrive at the dome base within ample time limits.
Before taking off, looking at the flight route map, Wang Yu couldn't help but sigh, now he was going to be near the equator.
The dome base is located on an island near the equator of the planet, which can be said to be very warm.
Flying from the Gensokyo base in the polar circle to the dome base near the equator, the contrast is not ordinary.
If you think about it carefully, from the sand island to the oasis, to the rock and Fantasyland, and now to the dome, he has soared in the skies around the world and seen various climate environments since he became an official pilot.
And obviously, he will have the opportunity to go to more places in the future.
As a pilot, he thought this was enough.
Three fighter planes took off from the runway at the Gensokyo base in the valley, bypassed the canyon, and soared into the clouds.
