Ye Han couldn't believe that there were so many light bugs hidden near Qingtang. Without drones to act as bait, the consequences of Feitian's direct launch would be unimaginable.
Fortunately, the sacrifice of the drone was not in vain. As soon as the light bugs here opened fire, lasers immediately fell from the sky, suppressing the exposed light bugs.
Ye Han wanted to see the next battle, but his mission was to return to space as soon as possible, so he had to regretfully get into the spacecraft and tighten the hatch to the outside world.
The soldiers are preparing nervously... Every member has a lot of experience in launching and knows what they should do. Therefore, the spacecraft is busy and not chaotic. The soldiers help each other and quickly settle down in their positions.
.
The cabin looked a bit funny at this time. The soldiers were sitting in a spiral row in the barrel-shaped cabin. Many people were fixed on the chairs with their heads down. Without the help of others, they would not be able to sit on it by themselves.
There was a fierce battle outside the cabin, but the soldiers inside the cabin looked solemn, and everyone's faces were tense.
The soldiers are not too worried about the outside world. The key point is that air travel is definitely the most dangerous of the three modes of transportation.
Spaceflight is a gamble between life and death, and this time the risk is higher than ever before.
It was discovered that the Kongtian had no intention of taking off for the time being, and the cabin was isolated from the outside world. Everyone gradually relaxed and the atmosphere was not as tense as before.
Exactly a quarter of an hour later, the announcement of preparation for takeoff came from the cockpit, and everyone immediately sat upright. Soon after, the Feitian slid onto the runway, speeding up faster and faster, soaring into the sky in the blink of an eye, and quickly diving into the leaden clouds.
Several thin beams of light swept in this direction, and one of them almost hit the tail of the No. 2 aircraft. Fortunately, the Feitian was powerful enough and was just a sliver faster than the thin beam of light.
The Feitian quickly increased its altitude and soon entered the stratosphere, and the aircraft's jitter gradually decreased.
After a brief acceleration, the plane climbed again, and the shaking gradually increased, but it was nothing. The Feitian reached the highest ceiling, and the moment the rocket ignited, the vibration reached its highest level. The soldiers were like mice in a blender, tumbling up and down and left and right.
People who have not personally experienced this kind of environment cannot imagine how uncomfortable it is to feel like dying.
Fortunately, the rocket is much faster than the airplane. After a while, the rocket left the atmosphere, the fairing separated, and the two small spacecraft flew higher and higher.
If there was no threat from ground fire, the Ningwuguan could fly over now to take the people back. However, the current situation is that it cannot lower its altitude, so it can only rely on the spacecraft's own power to gradually change its orbit.
It would take some time to change the track, so Ye Han simply took the initiative to contact Bei Yuezhou.
Probably Wu Han was always online. As soon as the communication request was sent, Wu Han immediately appeared on the screen: "Where are you?"
"It has left the atmosphere and is changing orbit upwards. I don't have anything to do for the time being, so I want to ask about the status of the mission."
Wu Handao: "The current situation is very complicated. I will try to keep it short..." At this point, he suddenly sighed, "A big thing happened last night. General Franklin of the International Base publicly declared that Washington has been occupied by aliens.
Infiltration, he wants to form a new government at the international base, swear in a new wartime president on a certain date, and lead the free American people to continue to resist alien invasion!"
Ye Han was completely stunned: "Our mission target is the international base?"
This fact is really sensational. Washington is doing well, but the international base is trying to establish a new government. No matter how politically minded you are, you know that there will definitely be a bullshit struggle for power.
At this time, there is still internal strife over a small amount of power. Have the cowboys in the Lighthouse Country had enough?
Wu Han shook his head: "No, our target is Washington."
"Ah?" Ye Han was dumbfounded again, "It's not an international base? Which side do we support?"
He instantly imagined a series of big moves on the secret front, and the end result was to instigate Franklin, which ultimately led to an internal split within the Cowboys.
Wu Han could tell at a glance that Ye Han was thinking wrong and explained: "We are always on the side of mankind."
Ye Han immediately grasped the key point: "Something happened in Washington?"
Wu Han nodded: "According to the information provided by the international base, an alien commando team composed entirely of bugs attacked Washington yesterday, and a large number of giant bugs cooperated with the action. Washington's defense system was dragged down by the giant bugs.
Commandos successfully broke into an underground bunker outside Washington. The current president, the war cabinet and some senior officials disappeared and their whereabouts are still unknown."
Ye Han was completely stunned: "Chief, it was infiltration just now, and now it is missing. What is the situation?"
Wu Han smiled bitterly: "We don't know yet. The International Base issued a notice not long ago to the effect that Washington has been controlled by aliens. It announced the abolition of Washington's status and called on the free American people to continue to resist aliens...
…We don’t know exactly what the situation is, but that’s what it means.”
Ye Han had a huge headache: "Chief, what is our mission?"
Wu Handao: "The International Base has contacted us and hopes that we can provide support to find out what happened in Washington and find out the whereabouts of senior officials in Washington. It is best to rescue the missing senior officials in Washington."
"No, sir, can you agree to this?" If it weren't for the seat belt, Ye Han would have jumped up.
Wu Han added calmly: "We are not acting alone, we are acting jointly at the invitation of the international base."
"With whom? Helltroopers?"
Wu Han nodded: "Yes, they are the Hell Paratroopers."
Ye Han opened his mouth, but no sound came out.
To be honest, he really doesn't want to cooperate with the Hell Paratroopers. The Hell Paratroopers are closer to the original Marine Corps, and the newly formed orbital airborne force is actually an advanced version of the Marine Corps, or an extraction of the Marine Corps.
An elite force formed from the best of the elite.
But he also knew that there was definitely nothing that could be done about the international base, because there were many countries with aerospace capabilities, but the only countries that had the spare capacity to establish orbital airborne troops were Beidu and Washington. If the international base did not find Beidu, it would never be able to find a third party.
A similar troop.
Wu Handao: "I can understand your thinking, but you must know that we must know what exactly happened in Washington so that we can take targeted prevention and prevent the same situation from happening to ourselves. Do you understand?"
"Understood!" Ye Han said, "Don't worry, chief, just leave this task to us."
"Okay!" Wu Han waved his hand, "After returning to the battleship, hurry up and prepare. The order to set off may be issued at any time... What did you say!"
Wu Han on the screen suddenly turned around. He didn't know who was talking to him behind him. After a while, Wu Han turned around and said: "The mission is suspended. Return to the battleship and stand by!"
