MTL - Armor Frenzy-Chapter 1864 First arrived in Beichen
Two days later, the transport ship loaded with 4,000 sailors set sail on time.
The space fleet does not have a special troop carrier, and Yue Fei needs a lot of personnel. It can only be temporarily replaced with a hibernation cabin on a carrier, converted into a temporary troop carrier, and responsible for transporting crew members to Beichenzhou.
After the transport ship set sail, everyone entered the hibernation cabin, the temperature outside the cabin gradually decreased, and the crew soon entered a state of autonomous hibernation.
After everyone entered hibernation, Ye Han took several bridge officers to check all the hibernation cabins and entered their respective hibernation cabins after confirming that there were no problems.
When Ye Han lay in the hibernation cabin, he saw the time on the wall: July 13, 2037.
When he opened his eyes again, he raised his head subconsciously, and the time on the wall had changed to August 26, 2037, a day and a half away.
The others woke up at the same time, drifting out of the hibernation pods one by one.
Ye Han floated to the side of the cabin, turned on the monitor switch on the wall, and the scene outside the ship immediately appeared on the screens in all directions-the back of the battleship was an endless starry sky, and in front of it was a planet the size of a full moon, which stood between the battleship and the sun. , half of the sun overflows from the side of Mercury, like a rising meniscus.
The sun was so strong that it made Mercury extremely dim, and it was impossible to see what was on the back of Mercury, and could only barely see the dawn and dusk circles all over the craters.
The environment there is very similar to the moon, and there are large and small craters everywhere... Well, celestial bodies without an atmosphere have this problem, just like smallpox.
Looking at Mercury's figure, Ye Han couldn't tell what mood he was in. He had both expectations and anxiety.
His wife and children were there. The thought of seeing them soon made him so excited that he couldn't calm down for a long time. He couldn't help but open his personal terminal and sent a message to Bei Chenzhou's wife and children.
The transport ship flew closer and closer, Ye Han put on the power armor and began to check the situation of the soldiers.
Now that the space fleet has long since popularized autonomous hibernation, the technology is very mature, and everyone wakes up on their own within the specified time.
This shows that the physical fitness of the soldiers has all reached the standard, which makes Ye Han very pleased.
At this time, the transport ship had already flown to the vicinity of Mercury, and the star completely blocked the sun. Through the lens outside the transport ship, Ye Han found several open-pit deposits being mined near the north pole on the back of Mercury.
As we all know, the Earth is the most dense planet in the solar system, and Mercury ranks second after Earth.
But not everyone knows that the gravity of Earth is much greater than that of Mercury, and the strategy has a much greater impact on the density of matter. If the influence of gravity is excluded, the density of Mercury’s matter is 5.3 grams/cm3, while the density of Earth’s matter is only 4.4 grams. /cm3.
This means that Mercury has more mineral resources than Earth, and that gravity is lower here, making it easier to mine.
If Mercury is a rich mine, then the moon is a poor mine at best. Why did Beidu take the lead in building Beichenzhou? Don't you just fancy the mineral resources here?
After years of development, Mercury has become the most important resource base in Beidu. According to Ye Han's understanding, the production and steel here account for 40% of the total human output. For every three warships built by the orbital factory, there are two warships. The raw materials come from Beichenzhou.
Moreover, Beichenzhou also found a uranium mine with astonishing reserves on Mercury. The weapons-grade enriched uranium produced there accounts for 76% of human output!
The fuel of human warships, nuclear warheads, and nuclear reactors are inseparable from uranium 235. It is an exaggeration to say that if there is no uranium mine on Mercury, human beings may have been trampled by aliens long ago.
The transport ship slowly approached Mercury and began to fly around Mercury. After more than ten minutes, the transport ship flew over the north pole of Mercury for the first time.
Ye Han and others entered the landing craft ahead of time, and before they flew directly above the North Pole, ten landing craft left the ship at the same time and slowly fell to the surface of Mercury.
Looking down from the sky, Mercury's north pole is half bathed in sunlight and half hidden in darkness. The craters under the sun draw long shadows. The closer you get to the north pole, the longer the shadows.
No matter how you look at it, it is a barren and barren land, but everyone knows that Beichenzhou is below.
Ten landing craft lined up and fell toward the largest crater in the north pole of Mercury. The engines on the boats started from time to time, and each time they spewed out a flame, but each start was very short, and it did not continue to work until it was close to the ground. The landing craft slowed down.
Inside the crater, the seemingly innocuous ground slowly opened, revealing a huge bottomless hole, and the landing craft lined up silently entered the hole and fell vertically into the depths of the hole.
After all the landing craft entered, the gate that covered the entrance of the cave slowly closed, blocking the starry sky.
After passing through three sealed doors in a row, the landing craft finally fell into a large fully enclosed hangar.
After all the landing craft were stopped and the propellers were extinguished, the air extraction equipment in the hangar was fully activated to extract all the harmful gases produced by the combustion, and then injected with normal air until the air pressure in the hangar reached the standard and passed into the hangar. The airlock opened slowly, and a group of people walked into the hangar.
Ye Han dragged his luggage and led a group of people out of the landing craft. He saw a group of generals approaching, each with dazzling generals on their shoulders, so that everyone almost dazzled.
Looking at Ye Han in turn, except for Lieutenant General Ye Han, all of them below the school rank, even He Lu, the deputy captain, is only a colonel.
There is no way, the captain of Ye Han is still high rank and low rank. Under normal circumstances, the captain of the super battleship should be the rank of major general, and the deputy captain should be a colonel at most, which cannot be compared with the Beichenzhou base at all.
There was only one middle-aged man in the crowd carrying three generals, and Ye Han hurriedly saluted: "Director Zhe!"
After returning the salute, Zhe Zhipeng stretched out his right hand~www.novelbuddy.com~ smiled and said, "Ye Han, right? I've heard of you for a long time. You made the wreck records of our fleet. You can give our fleet a boost. face!"
Ye Han pretended to be modest for a while: "Director, you have won the prize. My grades are already in the past tense."
Zhe Zhipeng waved his hand: "There's nothing to win, your record is really hard work, the super gunship and super battleship are the battleships that are stronger than you, so it can't be counted!"
Ye Han couldn't answer these words at all, and could only accompany him without laughing.
Zhe Zhipeng didn't talk nonsense. He pointed to a major general wearing glasses and said, "This is our engineering director, Chai Jin!"
Ye Han was a little stunned, thinking that this person had the same name as Chai Jin in the novel, but his face didn't show it at all. The two saluted each other very friendly and shook hands.
Zhe Zhipeng pointed to another major general: "This is our technical director, Nan Bo."
"Quality Director Shang Mingyuan."
"Technical Director Ma Chengzhi..."
