One Thousand Three Hundred and Seventeen Great Fame
April 26, 2032, the moon.
Over Beiyuezhou, more than a dozen warships were lined up in a row, forming a welcoming queue. Among them were warships belonging to China such as Nanzhou and Beihai, as well as warships belonging to the international fleet such as Charles and Farragut. Battleship.
In the distance, Leishan flew directly to the North Pole of the Moon. When it passed the first battleship, fourteen battleships fired salutes at the same time.
There was no sound in space, and only the muzzle flames could be seen, but the salvo of more than a dozen warships still gave everyone a great shock.
At this time, the Leishan was supposed to respond with a salute, but all the guns on the Leishan were destroyed, not even one that could fire was left. Ye Han could only lead all the bridge officers and pass Salute back.
This scene was transmitted back to Beiyue Continent through radio waves, and then back to the earth from Beiyue Continent, and was simultaneously broadcast to the whole world.
When Ye Han heard that Beiyuezhou was going to broadcast the entire ceremony to the world simultaneously, his whole body collapsed. What was going on?
However, no one told him the details. He could only follow Bei Yuezhou's orders and complete the ceremony step by step.
Ye Han rejects flashy rituals from the bottom of his heart, but military orders are like mountains, and orders issued by superiors must be executed meticulously.
After the salute was fired, the Leishan slowly sailed into the dock of the Orbital Factory. The mechanical arms stretched out from all directions to firmly fix the Leishan in the dock.
After the ceremony, Ye Han breathed a long sigh of relief, turned around and said to everyone, "Let's go, don't keep the leaders waiting."
At the same time, the broadcast camera has been moved to the multi-functional hall of the space station. This place is usually a restaurant. When necessary, it can be decorated as a conference room or any other place that needs space.
As the commander of the space fleet, Huo Qiang was standing on the stage and delivering a passionate speech, starting from the record of Leishan, extending to the glorious history of the Beiyuezhou Fleet, and then extending to the struggle of the United Fleet, and finally emphatically stating the various aspects. The outstanding contributions made by the Japanese in the previous battles against the swarms and aliens, as well as the heavy sacrifices made by the Japanese people
In short, all aspects should be taken care of, all achievements should be boasted, and all sacrifices should be remembered.
By the time Huo Qiang's speech was over, Ye Han and the officers and soldiers representatives on the Leishan had already rushed to the conference hall.
Next, the representative of the combined fleet spoke, and the representatives of the officers and soldiers spoke. Finally, it was Ye Han's turn to make a concluding speech.
Well, the speeches were all prepared in advance. I don’t know who ghostwritten them. Anyway, Ye Han only needed to read them word for word with great emotion.
Don't think it's easy to read this manuscript once. In order to read this manuscript well, Bei Yuezhou arranged for a teacher to provide special guidance. Ye Han practiced for two full days before barely reaching the standard.
Ye Han also complained in private. In his opinion, reading a manuscript was much more strenuous than fighting.
After reading the manuscript, it is not over yet. Next is the question and answer session, where reporters from all over the world have the opportunity to ask questions.
However, the military did not plan to hold a press conference, but presented Leishan in an interactive form.
At this time, the military's photography team had already boarded the Leishan, taking pictures from all angles and distances. They had a thorough view of the Leishan from the inside to the outside, and showed the tragedy of the Leishan to the world at close range.
The camera first showed a panoramic view, and then a reporter who had been arranged in advance stood up and asked why the Leishan became like this.
Ye Han was silent for a moment, then began to tell the reason why the battleship was in such a mess, focusing on the potential dangers of the special environment of space, and finally conclusively explained the necessity of such modifications.
Then the camera switches to show a set of comparison photos, which are precious shots taken before the Leishan was repaired, such as the dented bow,
Another example is the damaged armor, twisted cabins, etc.
Seeing the dilapidated battleship in the photo, everyone realized that the repaired Leishan was much stronger than before, and everyone seemed to feel a lot more unspeakably heavy in their hearts.
The last ones shown were the damaged propeller and the repaired propeller. The two sets of photos were put together for comparison, and Ye Han explained the differences.
Interspersed with questions from reporters, Ye Han answered them according to the pre-arranged remarks.
Just when the display was about to end, a foreign reporter stood up and asked in impossibly fluent Chinese, "Captain Ye, you and your battleship have achieved such brilliant results, and the Leishan has been defeated." With this appearance, I would like to ask you, what is the next step for Leishan? Should it be scrapped and dismantled, or should it be repaired and continue to serve, thank you."
Ye Han said, "First of all, I want to correct one problem. It's not me and my battleship. The Leishan is not mine. Such achievements are also the result of the joint efforts of all officers and soldiers. Secondly, emotionally, of course I hope to repair the Leishan, but in the end it's Whether to dismantle or repair it must be decided by the fleet, not my personal will, thank you."
This is a question that has not been arranged in advance, but the content is very simple and it is not difficult to answer.
At this time, Huo Qiang took the initiative and said, "I have a few words to say about this issue. First of all, for a meritorious battleship like Leishan, our opinion is to repair it as much as possible. If there is really no repair value, try to keep the status quo. In the future, we can do To bear witness to this war.”
"Then is the Leishan worth repairing?"
Huo Qiang smiled, "Then you have to ask our engineering staff, but the Leishan has just docked, and it will take some time to evaluate the situation of the warship. But I make a guarantee here, even if the Leishan cannot be repaired, we will build another one." The new battleship will pass on the glorious name of Leishan and the spirit of Leishan from generation to generation."
Ye Han's eyes were full of circles. When did Leishan still have energy?
The reporter asked again, "If a new warship is built, will it still be a destroyer?"
"This question is difficult to answer." Huo Qiang said calmly, "From my personal point of view, there is no need to stick to the form. The new ship can be a destroyer, a frigate or an aerospace carrier. After all, the ship is dead, and the talent is It’s alive.”
Another reporter stood up and said, "Commander Huo, I want to ask a question that is of great concern to the general public, and that is whether the new ship will inherit the record of Leishan."
Huo Qiang pursed his lips and smiled, "This question is very sharp. How should I put it? We haven't discussed this issue yet. From an emotional point of view, I hope that the new ship can use as many things from the old ship as possible." Inheriting the record is also one of the aspects. But according to my personal understanding, there is no precedent for inheriting the record. Therefore, we still hope that the Leishan can be repaired. I personally hope that it can return to the battlefield and regain its glory. "
