Anything that cannot be said over the radio is an important matter that must be discussed in person. Thinking of Luo Qi's tone, Ye Han couldn't help but feel a shadow cast over his heart.
The time now is November 12, 2028, but this matter must start from a month ago.
Although Beidu took action in advance and rushed to build the space station and forward base at Europa before the base group, the base group headed by Washington was not a soft persimmon. They first put forward the argument that the forward base was not enough, and then said another
The space station is too reluctant. In short, a space station and a ground base belonging to the base group must be built on Europa.
The intention of the base group is very obvious, that is, it wants to snatch the resources on Europa from Beidu.
Beidu responded very quickly and immediately renamed the Tianhe to the International Space Station. It only continued to use the name Tianhe internally. At the same time, it announced to the world that applications for admission were accepted from all over the world. All qualified experts and scholars can apply.
, for those who pass the qualification review, Beidu will arrange a spacecraft to be sent to the space station.
The base group was so troubled that they simply sent a transport ship out without looking for any excuse, and first came up with the established facts.
Doing so may indeed anger Beidu, and the base group is even prepared to withstand Beidu's wrath.
But Washington is very clear that under the current situation, no matter how serious the conflict is, it will eventually be resolved by political means, and it will never escalate to the military level.
This can be regarded as a relatively different kind of confidence.
However, Beidu's reaction was very strange. It was not as stubborn as Washington thought.
Washington is very confused. How can he dare to engage in politics if he is not thick-skinned? The firepower of Beidou cannot break Washington's defense at all!
Not to mention abroad, there are a large number of people in China who don't understand what Beidu thinks.
But Washington knows very well that the current Beidu will never suffer the disadvantage of being dumb. The more Beidu keeps silent, the more uncertain Washington will be, wondering where Beidu is waiting.
The transport ship set off smoothly, and the next step was to contact the resistance organization and find a place on Europa to build a base.
Originally, this matter should have been resolved before the transport ship set off, but the channel to contact the resistance organization has been in the hands of Beidu. In order to prevent Beidu from getting in the way, Washington had to reverse the order.
Then, tragedy struck in Washington.
The resistance organization contacted Beidu from the beginning, and the intermediary between the two parties was Zeng Rui. In addition, Beidu had reached multiple cooperation intentions with the resistance organization. Beidu had exerted a strong influence on the resistance organization. The delegation headed by Li Shili
After some lobbying by Zeng Rui, Washington's little plan suddenly came to nothing.
During the month when the transport ship flew to Europa, Washington contacted the resistance organization several times, but failed to receive a positive response from the resistance organization. Now Washington was completely passive.
Washington wanted to know what kind of ecstasy soup Beidu fed the aliens, but he tried his best and couldn't find any clues.
The resistance organization also has its own considerations. Beidu has conducted four expeditions. Although they failed to do anything to the aliens, they left a particularly deep impression on the resistance organization.
On the other hand, the resistance organization has no impression of the Al Qaeda group at all. Until now, the resistance organization thought that the fleet that blocked Europa in the asteroid belt also belonged to Beidu.
On one side is the majestic Beidu, which has conducted several expeditions; on the other side is the unknown Washington, which suddenly appeared. The resistance organization does not know the distribution of forces on the earth, so of course it is more inclined to cooperate with the powerful Beidu.
Until the base group's transport ship arrived at Europa, the situation did not improve. Washington could only keep the transport ship in orbit for the time being and build the space station first.
From that time on, forward bases strictly prohibited the use of classified information in radio communications.
The base group and a series of actions also put great pressure on Beidu. In order to prevent accidents, Beidu carried out intensive consultations with the resistance organizations. All plans that could be advanced were made as early as possible, so on October 26, that is,
On the seventh day after landing on Europa, the first batch of technicians were allowed to visit the planetary engine.
Although it was just a visit and not a measurement, the resistance organization also asked to send a team of people to accompany the whole process, but Bei did not raise any objections.
For Beidu, the first priority is to look at the planetary engine.
However, you don’t just want to see the planetary engine. According to the resistance organization, that thing is located deep underground, and it takes four to five days to get there by car bug.
Ye Han did the math and found that Europa had twenty-one hours a day, which meant more than a hundred hours in five days. At the speed of the car bug, it was more than enough to reach the center of the earth, and the location of the planetary engine was about to be revealed.
The advance base immediately started preparations. Personnel, supplies and equipment were all ready, and the only two engineering vehicles in the base were the means of transportation.
On October 27, 2028, several mechanical experts and the Marines responsible for safety left the forward base in an engineering vehicle.
Four hours later, the construction vehicle entered the underground.
The engineering vehicles were equipped with long-wave communication equipment, but the penetration of radio waves was ultimately limited. Soon after the convoy entered the underground, it lost contact with the base.
Ye Han knew that the possibility of something going wrong was very small, but he was still very uneasy and worried about the situation of the team.
It has been more than ten days in the blink of an eye, and there is still no news about the convoy. Although the resistance organization reported that everything is normal, Ye Han still cannot feel at ease without receiving any news from the convoy.
Unexpectedly, the convoy would return to the ground at this time. Ye Han immediately put the incident caused by the political work team behind him and anxiously headed back to the convoy.
The more Ye Han waited, the more he regretted why he didn't install a set of laser communication equipment on the engineering vehicle!
Two hours later, the location of the forward base entered darkness. Within a radius of several hundred kilometers, there were only lights near the forward base.
After another two hours, the construction vehicle finally returned to the base after a long journey.
Ye Han wanted to drag the last person in front of him, but he had to resist his impulse and wait until the construction vehicle was washed and sold and the entire vehicle was thoroughly disinfected inside and out before the people inside came out.
Luo Qibi was much haggard when he set off, and the others were not in good condition either. Everyone had a heavy heart written on their faces. Ye Han had to hold back the questions he had been holding back for half an afternoon.
Luo Qi wanted to speak, but Ye Han patted him on the shoulder: "Okay, if you have anything to say, we'll talk to you later. Come on, the food has been prepared in the cafeteria. Let's take a rest first."
