He Xiangdong knew that he couldn't say much about how the navy escorted the ship, but every time he saw the scarred giant ship docking, he felt as unhappy as if there was a stone stuck in his heart.
Ambulances roared past again and again, and a dozen ambulances all drove away in a short time. Next, passenger buses drove into the cabin, filled with people, and then drove out. They did not stop for a moment after leaving the giant ship, and drove all the way.
Towards the ground platform of the orbital elevator.
There, they took the space train into space, and then transferred to a transport ship to go to Beiyuezhou.
This is a very tedious journey, but everyone enjoys it... The opportunity to move to Beiyuezhou is hard-won, and no one dares to waste it.
After all the people left the giant ship, engineers wearing exoskeletons and trucks swarmed in and began to transfer the materials in the cabin. Everything was as orderly as before.
The next step should be as before, unloading the ship and repairing the giant ship at the same time. When all the supplies on the ship are unloaded and the ship is almost repaired, the ship will leave the port and return to the sea to continue its next journey of death.
Well, if this ship hadn't been requisitioned by the military a long time ago and the crew were all active military personnel, such a voyage would have been impossible.
"Let's go, there's nothing to see anymore." He Xiangdong greeted and turned towards the dormitory.
Zhao Guoyu sighed and was about to follow He Xiangdong back when the shrill siren suddenly pierced his eardrums.
He Xiangdong jumped up like a rabbit hit by an arrow: "Signal Corps, what's going on?"
"Report, receiving orders!" The communications soldier rushed out carrying the radio on his back.
This is the forefront of the fight against aliens. It is the most basic thing to leave the saddle immediately without taking off the armor. The radio is the weapon of the communication soldiers, so it should be kept with you at all times, even if you sleep.
He Xiangdong took three steps and then two, and rushed to the communications soldier: "What exactly is going on?"
The communications soldier stared closely at the individual soldier terminal worn on his left forearm: "The command headquarters said that the sonar near the port found abnormal underwater echoes, which may be alien troop-carrying submarines, and asked us to enter the position immediately.
Prepare to engage the enemy!"
He Xiangdong opened his neck and shouted: "Operator on duty!"
"arrive--"
"Everyone get into combat positions immediately, hurry up, hurry up!" He Xiangdong shouted as he took the rifle handed over by the correspondent and was the first to rush towards the off-road vehicle.
After a while, the off-road vehicle drove towards the dock. Behind the off-road vehicle was a whole battalion of Marines.
But in the entire port, only He Xiangdong's troops were ready to fight. The others seemed to have not heard the siren and were doing whatever they were supposed to do, but their speed reached the limit.
He Xiangdong's army was originally a reinforced regiment. After leaving Buha Island, the battalion from the brother army was reorganized as a whole. Now only the original base is left. After excluding casualties, there are still more than 1,200 people.
In order to fight against the insect swarm, the military specially strengthened the defenses of Xidan Port, built a "city wall" more than four meters high with five centimeters of armored steel, surrounded the entire port, and welded it to the top of the wall.
There are a lot of sharpened steel bars. Any giant insect that wants to jump on the wall will have to pay the price in blood.
Not only that, a 20-meter moat with a depth of only about two meters was dug outside the wall. The river was filled with seawater... The purpose of this thing is not to block the giant insects, but to prevent the giant insects from borrowing their strength.
The insect jumped over the wall.
He Xiangdong's troops set up defenses along the city wall, placing a platoon at regular intervals, and the extra men were concentrated in the camp near the exit as a reserve team.
In addition to He Xiangdong's troops, other troops in the port also have the task of guarding the port. According to the headquarters' plan, He Xiangdong's Second Regiment is an inseparable garrison. In principle, small-scale insect swarms can be dealt with by the Second Regiment on their own.
.
Other troops in the port usually only carry self-defense weapons such as pistols. Once a large-scale attack occurs, the second regiment's first task is to buy time for the brother troops. The engineers and other troops in the port will receive weapons as quickly as possible and go to the wall to support them.
fighting.
It's not that far yet, so only the second regiment is taking action.
He Xiangdong's troops were well-trained, and it only took a few minutes to arrive at the dock. Everyone climbed up the city wall as quickly as possible, setting up their weapons and aiming at the coast.
There was the coast dozens of meters away, and the seawater was washing back and forth as usual, and there was nothing unusual about it.
Everyone knows that the enemy is hidden under the sea, and no one dares to be careless.
He Xiangdong asked in a deep voice: "Is there any news from the headquarters? Where are the aliens?"
The signal soldier replied: "There has been no movement..."
Before he finished speaking, a water column suddenly rose from the sea at least one kilometer away. There seemed to be something at the base of the water column, but it was only because it was too far away that it couldn't be seen clearly.
The high-rising water column quickly fell back, and it was only then that He Xiangdong and others heard a muffled sound like rolling thunder.
"It hit a mine!" Zhao Guoyu said excitedly, "80% of it is an alien submarine!"
Aliens actually don't have any submarines. Their spacecraft is quite special and can sail freely in the water. However, the gravity of the earth is relatively high, and the alien spacecraft cannot fly after landing, so it can only serve as a submarine.
Submarine is the name for ground troops. If you were a space fleet soldier, you would definitely call those underwater things spaceships or battleships.
At this time, two more water pillars rushed into the sky, located near the first water pillar.
He Xiangdong's face turned dark: "What the hell, this is demining!"
Xidan Port is now the heart of Beidu. Except for one safe waterway, the entire port is blocked by mines. It is not that easy to approach from underwater.
At this time, a series of flames suddenly appeared on the frigate parked on the dock. It was the warship launching an anti-submarine rocket into the sea area where the incident occurred. The rocket flew over the target area and then plunged into the water and slowly sank.
Several giant insects were near the landing point of the rocket. The sound of the rocket entering the water startled the underwater giant insects, and they swam away quickly like frightened fish.
However, the area covered by the rocket was too large. Before they could swim far, the rocket exploded under the water. The strong shock wave instantly shattered the giant insect's internal organs and quickly took away the giant insect's life.
But the alien submarine is hidden under the water and is some distance away from the explosion area, so it has almost no impact.
The rocket launcher on the frigate was quickly loaded, and the second round of rockets immediately flew to the target area.
This is the latest news that the Communications Corps has finally received from the headquarters. A military satellite is over Xidan Port. It found several vague shadows under the water. The headquarters believes that these shadows are likely to be aliens.
of submarine.
Before He Xiangdong finished reading this message, the missile position a few kilometers away was filled with smoke and dust. A cruise missile broke away from the launch vehicle and took off into the sky. It soared into the sky at a very high speed and then dropped rapidly. It was two kilometers behind the shadow.
