One Thousand Four Hundred and Thirty Ice Jam
A genius can remember the address of this website in one second: (Vertex Chinese), the fastest updates! No ads! This project is not complicated at all, but it is too labor-intensive. Two groups of people are simply not enough. In order to speed up the progress, Ye Han not only put the ship on All the marines were sent down, and some crew members were also mobilized. More than a hundred people were sent into the ice cave.
The space in the ice cave is not small, but there are not many places to stay. The soldiers can only build a foothold and enter a few people until everyone has entered.
By the time everyone entered the ice cave, the area between 7.4 and 7.5 kilometers was already overcrowded. Soldiers were clinging to the cave wall, laser beams were flying back and forth, and pieces of broken ice were struck by the laser. It was cut away from the cave wall and thrown down the ice cave by the soldiers. The poor drone was hit by an unknown piece and turned into useless scrap metal.
But it doesn't matter, it's just a drone, insignificant compared to the mission.
More than a hundred people worked for two full hours to repair the more than 100-meter-long passage. Just the crushed ice thrown into the ice cave filled the bottom of the cave with more than 400 meters.
But it was not over yet. After repairing the ten by one hundred meter ice cave, the soldiers still could not stop. They left the upper ninety meters alone and dug deeply sideways within the bottom ten meters. It took several Hours later, he dug out a huge space under the ice, and finally dug out ten cylindrical icicles with a diameter of ten meters and a height of ten meters.
At this time, the broken ice thrown into the depths of the ice cave had blocked the ice cave for two kilometers.
At this point, the project seemed to be over, but in fact it was only half completed. After ordering all the soldiers to enter the side cave and no one to be allowed to approach the main cave, the Leishan fired at the No. 1 cave again, and the laser penetrated directly into the No. 1 cave. The crushed ice accumulated at the bottom of the cave melted.
The soldiers in the side cave first saw a beam of light accurately penetrating into the main cave, and then a strong steam rushed out from the bottom of the cave. The airflow was blocked by the diameter change, and finally formed in this section of ten by one hundred meters. It spun around, the wind roared incessantly, and the scene was shocking.
However, the laser only lasted for a short period of time, and stopped after clearing away the broken ice at the bottom of the cave.
But after the soldiers left the side cave, they found that the section of ten by one hundred meters had been deformed by steam, and many places that should have been right angles had become rounded corners.
It didn't say, just repair it, so the soldiers spent another half an hour renovating it, and it was not completed until all positions met the standards.
Finally, everything was ready. Ye Han and everyone who paid attention to the progress of the project breathed a sigh of relief. Most of the more than 100 people evacuated the ice cave, leaving only a combat team on standby.
Before the evacuation, the communication team also specially installed several repeaters to continue to maintain communication with the warship after blocking the ice cave.
The No. 1 ice cave of the Leishan is the first ice cave to complete construction preparations. The ice caves of other ships are still under construction and are expected to be completed within three to five hours.
At this time, the belated international fleet finally arrived at Europa. After Halsey contacted the Jizhou, he figured out what the Chinese were busy with.
Halsey insisted that aliens must be hiding under the ice, not under the water. He believed that there was no need for China to penetrate the ice, let alone detect the ocean under the ice.
Huo Qiang said bluntly that I didn't want to do this. I couldn't find any enemies in the ice, so I had to take this step!
As the saying goes, people with different opinions do not work together. However, the two fleets have different views, but they must cooperate sincerely. In the end, no one can convince the other, so they just go their own ways. The Chinese side continues to dig into the ice, while the international fleet continues. China's unfinished business is to continue looking for a needle in a haystack in the ice, looking for the shadow of aliens.
After the unpleasant communication, Huo Qiang issued an action order to the Leishan. To be on the safe side, Huo Qiang asked Ye Han to make comprehensive preparations. It would be best if Ye Han himself would take command.
Ye Han felt helpless. Huo Qiang's tone sounded like a discussion, but could he take it as a discussion?
He could only bring all the equipment and return to the ice cave with the Marines who had just withdrawn from the ice cave.
After entering the side cave at 7.5 kilometers, the order to start action was given.
The laser fell into Ice Cave No. 1 for the third time. The ice at the bottom of the cave melted rapidly and steam rose into the sky again.
Ye Han didn't know how long it would take for the No. 1 hole to be opened, but judging from the situation of the No. 2 hole, the remaining ice layer was not much thicker.
Just two minutes later, the wind outside the cave suddenly became several times faster. The scattered ice feathers that could only be regarded as light snow turned into heavy snow in the blink of an eye.
Luo Qi immediately reminded: "Boss, it's cleared!"
Ye Han said: "I know, one group, come on!"
A group that had been waiting at the entrance of the cave immediately pushed the icicle, but the airflow outside was too strong, and steam continued to bubble into the side hole. Coupled with the weight of the icicle itself, the soldiers were struggling and could not push it at all.
"Two more groups!" Ye Han ordered loudly, and two more combat groups rushed forward. More than twenty people worked together to push the icicle and move it little by little toward the ice cave.
But after the icicle was pushed into the main cave, it was resisted by the pressure from the outside. It only blocked half of the main cave and could no longer be pushed. No matter how many people entered it, it was useless.
Luo Qi suddenly said: "Boss, the pressure outside is high and the pressure inside is low. This is not a problem. Let's open up the inside to the bottom, so that the internal and external balance can be improved."
Ye Han nodded immediately: "Just do it."
Luo Qi immediately called a combat team. After a few instructions, the entire team took out their laser guns, found a corner out of the way, and fired diagonally downwards.
The laser melted the ice and soon created a small hole leading to the main cave, from which a blast of wind spurted out.
The soldiers continued to expand the hole. After a while, the small hole as thick as a finger became as thick as a bucket. The internal and external air pressure was quickly neutralized, and finally the icicle could be pushed again.
A few minutes later, the icicles finally blocked the main hole. Because the size of the hole was strictly controlled when digging the hole, although the icicles and the main hole were not a perfect fit, there was not much space. The heavy icicles were pushed violently by the strong airflow. It jumped up and hit the top with a bang, blocking the main hole like a piston.
The violent airflow immediately weakened by half, and the ice feathers that had been rising rapidly fell slowly like snowflakes.
"It's done!" Ye Han showed a smile: "Quickly, fix the icicles and launch the drone!"
The soldiers acted quickly. Several combat groups were responsible for the icicle and pushed the second icicle out.
The second icicle was in place, blocking the airflow from below. The icicle that was originally on top actually trembled and fell down. The already gentle airflow rose again, and actually pushed up the second icicle. The two icicles collided in the air, then stuck together tightly, and finally slowly rose to the top.
