One Thousand Two Hundred and Forty-Five It's Too Coincidental to Be a Coincidence

When Ye Han received the news, the Thunder Mountain had already returned to Ceres, and there was an inexplicable mother-in-law on his head. Ye Han felt like a beeping dog. [ＷＷ.SuiMеng.lā

But if you look carefully, you will find that the mother-in-law above you is just a righteous person, and it is Bei Yuezhou who actually commands the Leishan.

This result was simply dumbfounding. Ye Han lamented the intricacies of politics for a while, and finally came to the conclusion that ordinary people either couldn't afford this thing or simply didn't know how to play it!

The old mother-in-law is still there, but the new joint command has also brought some new changes.

Leishan received several orders from Beiyuezhou in succession, which canceled the mission of Leishan to protect Base No. 1 and replaced the mission target with Ceres. In other words, the safety of Ceres will be under the control of Leishan from now on.

Ye Han wanted to complain, can I care about such a big dwarf planet?

Don't worry, the next order is to ask the Leishan to avoid clinging to Ceres and try to adopt flexible and proactive defense tactics...

Well, this is more in line with Ye Han's appetite, but if the Thunder Mountain had not consumed more than half of its fuel supplies when it first set off, and took the initiative to attack once or twice, it would probably have consumed the remaining reserves. .

Ye Han contacted Bei Yuezhou, and Bei Yuezhou told him that the supply ship had already set off for more than half a month. It would take a while to reach Ceres. The ship would not only have the much-needed ammunition and supplies for the Leishan, but also the reconstruction of the ship. Base No. 1 needs a large amount of supplies. Beiyuezhou hopes that Leishan will find a suitable asteroid near Ceres.

What the hell, this is simply a divine reply. More than half a month ago, the Leishan had not arrived at Base No. 1!

Ye Han suddenly felt that the departure time of the supply ship looked familiar. He turned out the voyage log and took a look, and immediately found the number.

The departure time of the supply ship was the day after base No. 1 lost contact!

Everything was clear now. Ye Han began to act according to the instructions from above. The first thing he did was to use optical equipment to find suitable asteroids. After eliminating unsuitable targets through technical means, he numbered all the remaining asteroids and finally went to the site. Check it out and find the one that suits you best.

This is easy to say, but not so simple to do. Ye Han and a group of people worked hard for more than a week before reluctantly selecting a few candidate stars.

This place is called the asteroid belt. In fact, there are not as many asteroids as expected. It is even more difficult to find a suitable one. With these few candidates, I have to choose carefully again.

If there are no qualified ones, you have to go further and continue to choose.

This is the asteroid belt. If it were the Earth and the Moon, just find an old ship and it would be a ready-made orbital elevator counterweight. Is there any need for such trouble?

This idea kept turning around in Ye Han's mind, and he suddenly thought of a question: why can't the orbital elevator be directly made into a spaceship when we have to find a counterweight?

There is no air resistance in space. The spacecraft can be made of any shape, and the gravity of Ceres is so low. Combining the ground station of the orbital elevator with the spacecraft, you can fly to anywhere on Ceres, lower the ground station, and orbit. The elevator is ready.

If aliens come over, just put away the cable and ground station and leave. Isn't it much more convenient than putting an asteroid outside Ceres?

The more Ye Han thought about it, the more he felt that there was something wrong, so he simply called He Lu over to write a report and send it to Bei Yuezhou... He had done this a lot recently, and now writing reports was so easy.

It didn't take long for the Leishan to receive a reply from Beiyuezhou, but the reply only said that it had received the report and did not mention how Beiyuezhou decided. However, Beiyuezhou reiterated the issue of the supply ship and once again requested the Leishan as soon as possible. Find the right asteroid.

Ye Han was furious. Are all the bureaucrats in Beiyuezhou blind? Don’t you even adopt such a good idea?

But there is nothing you can do no matter how angry you are. An order is an order. No matter how angry you are, you have to execute it first.

A few days later, Ye Han was still angry. At this time, the Nanzhou, which was flying to the second base, contacted the Leishan. Gao Kai asked Ye Han to talk to Ye Han about the asteroid belt, intending to understand the situation in advance. .

After much talk, when it came to the issue of the orbital elevator, Ye Han used a bamboo tube to pour beans, mentioned his thoughts again, and scolded Beiyuezhou's bureaucrats again.

Gao Kai couldn't laugh or cry for a while, but he couldn't elaborate. He thought for a while before saying: "The space base is a space base, and the orbital elevator is an orbital elevator!"

Ye Han's eyes widened: "The emotional space base and the orbital elevator are not the same thing? That's not what you said originally!"

"Why can't the plan change quickly?" Gao Kai said, "In short, you can do whatever your superiors tell you to do. Why do you have so many complaints?"

"Can't they just tell me?" Ye Han said angrily.

I have been so angry these days for nothing!

"There are considerations from above. It's not your turn to worry about it in the first place. Why are you so anxious?"

"Okay, okay, if this happens again in the future, I won't say a word!"

The two of them moved past this topic in a tacit understanding and spoke a few more words before ending the communication.

Although Gao Kai felt that Ye Han was making a fuss, he also felt that there was indeed a problem with Beiyuezhou's response mechanism, so he wrote a report and sent it back to Beiyuezhou, suggesting that Beiyuezhou improve the response mechanism to avoid similar problems from happening again.

As a result, Gao Kai did not get a reply from below, so he simply brought the problem to Huo Qiang, saying that although the matter was small, the impact was great, and Beiyuezhou really needed to pay attention to this issue.

This report eventually caused a series of chain reactions, and several people directly responsible were dealt with to varying degrees. Since then, no similar questions have appeared. Even if they could not be answered, they would explain the reasons why they could not be answered.

A few days later, the transport ship finally arrived at Ceres, and the two warships docked, and the almost empty inventory of the Leishan was refilled.

At the same time, Ye Han also transferred the soldiers in double hibernation to the transport ship according to the requirements of his superiors.

Then the transport ship went to the candidate asteroid according to the guidance of the Leishan, surveyed the geological conditions of the asteroid, and found the asteroid most suitable for building a base.

Just after arriving near the candidate star, He Lu suddenly reported to Ye Han: "Captain, we found an alien warship, position 135, altitude 342, it looks like it's heading towards us."

Ye Han frowned: "Why come at this time... Are they heading for the transport ship?"

"It's possible."

"What's the distance?"

"Too far, can't be measured for the time being, it should be no less than 9 million kilometers."

"What about other directions? Have you found anything?" Ye Han asked.
