Xiao Yuan immediately put all the remaining drones into action. Hundreds of mechanical spiders jumped out of the hatch and attached themselves to the well wall, densely clinging to the well wall and climbing around.
There is some distance between the giant ship and the shaft wall. Since the passage can be found below the hatch, there might be a passage above the hatch. To be on the safe side, Xiao Yuan ordered the troops to expand the reconnaissance scope to include the top of the hatch and the left and right sides.
reconnaissance range.
In short, be careful and make no big mistakes. You would rather delay a little time than leave any hidden dangers.
Just a minute later, the mechanical spider found a passage on the upper side of the hatch, and then found two passages on the other side of the giant ship. The height of these holes exceeded the height of the hatch.
Xiao Yuan almost broke into a cold sweat and quickly reported the situation to Ye Han.
Ye Han ordered Xiao Yuan to use spiders to guard the entrances of the caves first, and he would discuss other issues after the third group went up.
A swarm of released spiders quickly found all the more than a hundred holes in the well wall closest to the giant ship. Looking at the dense markings on the electronic map, Xiao Yuan's skin almost exploded.
As long as two aliens lie down in a hole, the shaft can be cut off immediately. Don't even think about knocking down the shaft without dropping a nuclear bomb.
The clearer he became about the situation outside, the less Xiao Yuan dared to send the soldiers out. Fortunately, Ye Han had already mentioned this issue twice, so he simply continued to stand still and wait for the third regiment to come over.
A few minutes later, Long Jianguo led three regiments to the bottom cabin. When he saw a group of people waiting in the bottom cabin, Long Jianguo couldn't laugh or cry for a while. After asking where Xiao Yuan was, he immediately flew to the cabin door and joked:
"Xiao, are you going to change tasks with me?"
Xiao Yuan smiled bitterly: "Old battalion commander, if you don't come, I really don't dare to move, so I'm just pointing at your sea-fixing needle!"
Long Jianguo chuckled: "Yes, please don't praise me. I'm a light-boned person, so I'm going to be blown away by your praise."
"No way, the truth, it's the truth." Xiao Yuan grinned and immediately turned to the topic, "Old battalion commander, you can't laugh at my joke. If you don't solve these holes, how can I dare to lead people down?
Walk?"
"Okay, then I'll help you solve it!" Long Jianguo agreed and turned around and shouted, "What are you waiting for? Come on!"
The two soldiers crossed over the bunker made by the aliens, stood inside the open hatch and took off the rope-throwing gun, pointed it at the rock wall and pulled the trigger. With two soft bangs, the grappling hook dragging the rope came out.
, nailed to the cliff ten meters away.
The two soldiers pulled hard to make sure that the grappling hook was firmly fixed, then turned around and tied the rope to the alien who had formed a bunker...
It's not that the two of them have any bad taste, but there is no place to fix the rope at the hatch, so the aliens are the most suitable.
Immediately, the people from the third group began to release the mechanical spiders, and each mechanical spider had two legs folded on its back, tightly gripping a large mine the size of a plate. It looked weird and ridiculous, but it was stable.
Incredibly.
That is to say, in a place with ultra-low gravity like Ganymede, a fist-sized mechanical spider can run around carrying mines so easily.
The two ropes are two bridges. The spiders climb up the ropes one by one, hang upside down under the ropes and climb up the rock wall. Then they disperse in groups of three or five, each team in one direction, responsible for sending the mines into
Set it up in the cave.
This is not over yet. After delivering the mines, the mechanical spiders carried explosive packages in groups of two. Judging from the specifications of the explosive packages, it would definitely not be a problem to collapse the holes in the rock wall.
Xiao Yuan finally felt relieved: "Old battalion commander, relying on drones is too slow. Just give me some mines and explosives. I will take the people out and release them as we go."
"No, you should go about your business and leave the whole cave to me." Long Jianguo said.
"That's okay." Xiao Yuan didn't insist, "Do you still have a rope-throwing gun?"
"Yes!" Long Jianguo turned around and shouted, and the soldiers behind him immediately sent two rope-throwing guns.
Xiao Yuan pointed diagonally downward and said: "This direction!"
The soldiers immediately followed Xiao Yuan's instructions and pulled out the grappling hook. After the ropes were fixed, they turned into two rope bridges leading diagonally downwards.
Xiao Yuan called two soldiers to give the order. The two soldiers jumped out of the hatch at the same time, put their arms on the rope, and slowly slid to the rock wall. After falling to the end, they climbed on the rock wall like a gecko and found a place.
He fixed the rope he was wearing, reported the situation to Xiao Yuan, and then started to descend while holding the rope.
The follow-up troops immediately followed up, and more than a dozen hanging ropes were quickly fixed on the rock wall, and the soldiers followed up one after another.
There was no need to make it so complicated. It was convenient and fast to just use the flight bag. However, the flight bag contained chemical fuel, and the shaft was dark and dark. As long as the thing was ignited, there would be two conspicuous tail flames.
There are holes everywhere on the rock wall, and there are enemies at the bottom of the well. Landing with a flight bag is equivalent to indicating the enemy's target. With no choice but to do so, Ye Han could only think of this stupid way.
The first group did not go out all at once, but after sending out several groups of people, they made way for the people of the third group to continue. The people of the two groups were interspersed at intervals. After the people of the first group left the ship, they kept going down and down again.
, the men of the Third Regiment drilled into the holes in the shaft walls in squad units to investigate the situation deep in these cliff caves.
So a particularly funny situation occurred in the cliff cave. Human reconnaissance troops appeared in dozens of cliff caves at the same time, but the ones at the front of the reconnaissance team were mechanical spiders. Some of them carried landmines on their backs, and some carried explosive packs.
, like a death squad, with a posture of killing whoever dares to pick a fight.
However, the soldiers of the third regiment were very cautious. No one went too deep into the cliff cave. They only advanced a few hundred meters and placed mines and explosive charges after roughly checking the situation.
This location is not far from the shaft. Even if the tunnel is blown down, the shaft will not be affected. Moreover, this distance is still within the effective range of wireless communication. Once an enemy appears, the soldiers can immediately receive a warning from the mechanical spider.
The situation in each cliff cave was quickly summarized in Long Jianguo's hands. Judging from what the soldiers saw, these cliff caves were very deep and most likely led to the depths of the underground caves. This meant that the enemy could cut off the shaft through the cliff caves at any time.
The three regiments were full of only more than 700 people. Even if they sent all the people out, they couldn't block so many cliff holes. Long Jianguo felt uneasy no matter what he thought. He simply suggested to Ye Han to blow up these cliff holes in advance to prevent the enemy from intercepting them.
One's own retreat.
Ye Han asked meaningfully: "Will the problem be solved by blowing it up? It won't take long even if the aliens dig it now."
"What should we do?" Long Jianguo was completely at his wits end.
Ye Han sighed: "I can't think of any good way. If you let the spider go inside again, go further and place a few nuclear mines just in case."
