Chapter 699 Race Against Time! (First Update!)

"Move quickly, I have to see which bastard has the courage to mess with our satellite!"

"I worked so hard to send satellites to the sky, and these beasts actually did it for me. Don't let me find out who they are. Let me find them. The satellites are staring at their homes every day!"

"Contact the Rocket Center and Missile Center and ask them to see which country currently has this capability."

"Who else? Who else but America?"

"But I haven't heard that America has such equipment?"

"Maybe these bastards just made it and then used our satellite for experiments!"

While cursing, Miao Yuan arrived at the command center with a large force from the satellite research and development center.

There was someone on duty at the command center, but it was already early in the morning, a time when people were drowsy.

The sound of the arrival of the large army woke up the dozing personnel on duty. Seeing the sudden arrival of the large army in the middle of the night, the personnel on duty were also stunned. They quickly turned back and checked the console and all the data as quickly as possible.

The device is operating normally.

The satellite is operating normally.

Seeing this, they breathed a sigh of relief, then turned back to look at Miao Yuan, leaned over and asked cautiously:

"Professor Miao, what happened?"

Miao Yuan did not speak, but directly pushed away the person on duty, came to the console, inserted his own key on the middle console, entered the password, and logged in to the system to check.

The system has not been compromised.

The equipment is operating normally, and all satellites that have been launched are in orbit and have not been killed.

this……

What went wrong?

After pondering for a moment, Miao Yuan took out his cell phone and dialed the number to Lin Yu. While waiting for the connection, he roughly understood what had happened.

When the call was connected, he couldn't wait to ask the other end of the phone:

"Director? Is this a drill?"

"Yes!" came Lin Yu's firm yet gentle voice, answering Miao Yuan's doubts at the same time.

After waiting for a moment, the voice came again:

"Is everyone at the satellite center here?"

"exist!"

“On speakerphone!”

Miao Yuan followed the instructions, turned on the phone hands-free, and turned the volume to the maximum.

After a moment of pause, the relevant task drill requirements were spoken by Lin Yu and passed to everyone present through the speaker of the mobile phone.

"The full name of this exercise mission: 2005 Special Unmanned Combat Exercise. The start time was 24:00 just past."

"During the exercise, our low-orbit satellite constellation was attacked and we needed to launch 24 satellites within 24 hours to repair the relevant satellite constellations and repair the communication network."

"Now, there are still 23 hours and 33 minutes until the mission is completed."

"Now the mission has been reported, goodbye!"

As soon as the person on the phone finished explaining the task, he hung up the phone without giving Miao Yuan a chance.

The beeping blind tone sounded like an alarm clock on a time bomb, frantically reminding everyone present that time was running out.

The busy signal stopped, and Miao Yuan couldn't help but squeeze the hand holding the phone.

He slowly closed his eyes and then opened them immediately. The instructions he had given countless times were spit out briskly as his eyes opened:

"In the manufacturing workshop, I'll give you two hours to check the satellites registered in the warehouse. I remember that there are enough satellites in the warehouse. After the inspection is completed, you will start producing new satellites."

"The final assembly workshop and the manufacturing workshop will install the satellite into the rocket cargo bay as soon as possible after the satellite is inspected."

"Transportation team, prepare vehicles and prepare for transportation."

"The logistics team contacted the rocket research and development center and asked them to immediately transport a rocket to the experimental center in the mountains, where we will launch the satellite."

"The administrative team will report to Lanling City, Shandong Province, and the General Logistics Office. We will conduct a rocket launch in the mountainous area of ​​​​Rheinsteel in about 12 hours and request them to pass the air defense identification."

"Now, everyone, move!"

As soon as the order was given, someone cautiously raised his head and asked in a low voice: "Isn't this too risky?"

Glancing at the speaker lightly, Miao Yuan shook his head gently: "If you are not confident in your skills, it is a risk!"

"Now, execute the order!"

With a slight scolding, the people following Miao Yuan turned around and began to act according to their respective departments.

As the lights throughout the park lit up, the originally dark city came alive in an instant.

At the same time, the park is to the north, in the mountains where Rheinsteel's main base belongs.

Gao Jun also received his task.

The mission requirements are very simple. He is required to carry equipment and maneuver to the northwest border town of Ritu Town within 120 hours.

Used to defend against possible drone attacks.

During the entire mission, no military aircraft was called for him.

However, some dedicated military columns can be coordinated.

Seeing this task that was very simple to say but very difficult to implement in practice, Gao Jun felt a little regretful for a moment, regretting that he jumped into the pit prepared by others as soon as his brain got hot.

Because that target point is about 5,000 kilometers away from Lanling.

And that’s not just the 5,000 kilometers traveled by road. About half of these 5,000 kilometers are on the polar plateau.

If he wants to reach the target area, he has only two options.

One is to go north, along the northern edge of the Qinghai-Tibet Plateau, all the way along the desert, to Yecheng, and then turn south and go up the plateau along 219.

The other way is to go south, take Bashu, take 318 all the way forward, then change to 219, and then go all the way forward to reach the destination.

His black eyes were fixed on the map, motionless.

For a long time, his slender fingers pressed on Highway 318.

At this moment, he was very fortunate that Lin Yu's synthetic battalion only had the electronic warfare synthetic battalion in his hands. If all the people and equipment were with him, this mission would most likely be ruined.

Only the electronic warfare combined battalion has little equipment, and at most two military columns can take away all the equipment.

The road from Lanling to Jinguancheng is more than 1,700 kilometers long. It is called a military train. The train does not need to enter the station, stop at the station, or avoid other trains. It only takes about 16 hours to arrive.

Having made preparations beforehand, Gao Jun is confident that the loading time can be shortened to within 4 hours.

In other words, they still have 100 hours after arriving in Jinguan City.

Get off at Jinguancheng, and the remaining several thousand kilometers will depend on their people and vehicles.

There are three shifts all the way, 24 hours a day, and people never take a break.

If everything goes well, 100 hours is enough.

After confirming the route, Gao Jun stopped being hesitant and reached out to call the communication team. The people in the communication team contacted the railway department according to the task code they had just received.

Requesting to call in military ranks.

Then, he was told that the nearest military column was in Jinmen and had transportation tasks. He needed to go to Jicheng to unload the goods before arriving at Lanling. It would take 8 hours at the fastest.

When he heard the news, he felt like the sky was falling.

After careful consideration, he decided to seek foreign aid.

Forcibly pressing down on his beating heart, he took out his cell phone, found Yang Xue's number, and dialed it.

The phone rang for a long time.

No one answered.

He was not annoyed. After a few seconds, he pressed the dial button again.

This time, the call went through.

Before the person on the other side could greet him, Gao Jun was the first to tell him why he was looking for him: "Yang Xue, you often travel across the country, coordinate two military formations for me, and we will be in place within four hours!"

After a long time, the other person just responded with a low voice, "Hello".

At the same time, Qian Duoduo, who wanted to join the army but failed, had already gotten into the ammunition workshop.

Unlike others, the people in the ammunition workshop seemed very excited, and the most excited person among them was Dolby.

He has been in China for a long time, and except for his appearance, his whole dress has completely transformed into a Chinese.

When he was caught out of bed by Qian Duoduo and heard that he was personally participating in an exercise, he seemed extremely excited, more excited than anyone else.

Because he finally had the opportunity to let everyone know how powerful the automatic and semi-automatic production lines he designed were.

From the time they were launched to the present, except for a few occasional overtime shifts, these production lines are basically operating at half capacity. Even those few overtime shifts can reach up to 70% of the production line load.

Now we finally have the opportunity to allow all production lines to operate at full capacity, or even overload.

He was almost crazy with joy!

The thought of these ammunition production lines running at full capacity made him want to howl like a wolf.

Next to him, Qian Duoduo witnessed his excitement throughout the whole process. After waiting for a long time, he finally waited until the big foreign brother calmed down, then raised his hand to pat him and asked in a low voice:

"Brother Du, are you really sure that there will be no problems if this production line is operating at full capacity or even overloaded, right?"

Facing his doubts, Dolby waved his hand: "First of all, my surname is not Du. You can call me Dolby. Dolby is my name."

"Secondly, I have to lead people to inspect the production line now. It's 1:30 in the morning. You give me 4 hours. By 6 in the morning, I will inspect all the production lines in this workshop."

"Guaranteed nothing will go wrong!"

"At 7 o'clock in the morning, you can come in early and start operating at full capacity."

"This time, I will let you know how terrifying it will be when a fully automated production line is operating at full capacity."

"You guys go and rest now!"

After finishing speaking, he stretched out his hand to push Qian Duoduo, then walked out of the crowd and waved to the people in the equipment maintenance team. The people in the equipment maintenance team immediately followed with drawings and tool boxes and began to inspect the production line.

At 6 o'clock in the morning, it was still a bit cold in the March morning, and the red sun barely poked its head out of the eastern clouds. Dalby walked out of the workshop with the equipment maintenance team in high spirits.

Outside the workshop, there were workers going to work. The person standing at the front was Qian Duoduo. He changed out of his usual suit and put on a pair of stain-resistant work clothes.

They did not wait until 7 o'clock, but have been waiting since midnight.

He and Qian Duoduo looked at each other, and Dolby proudly raised his right hand, clenched it into a fist, raised his thumb, pointed to himself, then pointed to the workshop behind him, and shouted:

"You guys go work overtime! I'm going to have breakfast!"

After saying that, he threw the tool box to the person behind him coolly and strode towards the canteen.

When he passed by Qian Duoduo, Qian Duoduo gave him a thumbs up, smiled at him, and then strode into the workshop.

It wasn't until the last worker crossed him that the person behind him quickly followed up and said in his ear:

"Brother Du, the canteen is not open yet..."

Hearing this, Dolby turned back in a daze, looked at the people behind him, and couldn't help cursing.

"Fuck!"

The next second, he shouted to the workshop again:

"Qian Duoduo! Let the people in the canteen go to work!"

Unfortunately, the equipment in the workshop started to operate, and the adjusted equipment made a low roar, covering his shouting.

Next to the self-destructive drone explosive production line, Qian Duoduo was there with a group of people, watching the production line without blinking.

The production process of this self-destructive explosive is very simple. With the help of equipment, 200 grams of softened TNT is injected into the square metal shell produced in a modular way.

Finally, it came to the final assembly line, and the reciprocating mechanical arm installed the electronic detonation module on the metal shell.

The full clip-on design only requires two screws to be tightened at the last installation.

When using it, open the insurance on the electronic alarm module, install it on the drone, and connect it to the drone to achieve remote detonation.

The entire production process was very fast. From the injection of TNT into the first shell to the final assembly, it took less than 5 minutes in total.

And in just one minute, this production line produced a full 30 explosives.

30 explosives in a box, neatly stacked in a special five-proof plastic box.

Three boxes were stacked together. When the third box was put on, the transport worker towed the trailer and transported the box to the side.

The forklift driver who had been waiting in the transport area drove the forklift to transport the box out of the workshop and sent it to the warehouse for loading.

Looking at the boxes of ammunition, Qian Duoduo covered his chest, turned around, and whispered to Qian Jianguo who appeared behind him at some point:

"Dad, is this thing produced a little too fast? Do we have to slow down?"

Faced with his concerns, Qian Jianguo snorted coldly and pulled his son to the artillery workshop.

Compared with the drone ammunition workshop just now, the sound in the artillery workshop is louder.

After many inspections, he finally came to the 100mm mortar shell production line. Compared with the drone ammunition workshop, the production line here is obviously running faster.

At the front of the production line, more than a dozen forklifts are frantically transporting shells and shells from the die-casting workshop.

The shells and shells are sent to two production lines respectively. After the explosives are loaded on their respective production lines, they are gathered on the same production line and assembled into shells without fuses.

Finally, after x-ray scanning and weighing.

The qualified shells are sent to the boxes in front by the production line, 12 shells per box, the same five-proof plastic box, the shells are evenly stuck in the box, the box is closed, the buckle is buckled, the special seal is applied, and the production time is marked.

There are still three boxes in a stack. When the three boxes are full, the forklift driver comes on stage, picks up the box, sends it to the warehouse, and registers the warehouse entry and exit, and loads it.

After standing guard beside the production line for a while, Qian Duoduo left the workshop with a guilty conscience and returned to the office. He took out his cell phone and called Lin Yu immediately.

When the call was connected, he couldn't wait to say:

"Director, our production speed is too fast, should we slow it down?"
