Scholar's Cultivation System Panel

Chapter 385 Give the world a surprise

Lei Ming made this trip specifically to determine whether the lunar drilling device designed by Xu Yun could be used for systematic deployment of space-based weapons.

Now that we have a satisfactory answer, we have successfully completed the task.

Knowing that Xu Yun was in charge of the construction project of the lunar base, he didn't want to spend too much time on Xu Yun.

Then he was ready to leave.

After the matter is understood clearly, it is time to take specific actions.

You know, everyone is watching.

But at this moment Lei Ming seemed to have thought of something, and just as he stood up, he suddenly stopped.

After facing Xu Yun again, he was still a little embarrassed: "Academician Xu, I may need to trouble you with one more thing."

Xu Yun didn't pay any attention to this, and directly waved his hand and said: "Sir Lei, just tell me if you have anything to say." It can be seen that the conversation between the two just now was quite good.

Hearing this, Thunder no longer hesitated and immediately asked about another thing.

"Academician Xu, this time the bombardment of lava tube holes was carried out with a total of two drilling devices heading to the lunar orbit."

After listening to all the content of this question, knowing that the other party was concerned about this matter, Xu Yun seemed to have thought of something, and answered truthfully in the next second: "According to the old tradition of the aerospace system, when performing important tasks, a plan is often formulated. As an alternative, two drilling devices were specially installed, but the performance of this device far exceeded our expectations."

"So the other alternative device has not been started and is currently docking with the space station."

According to the current progress of the lunar base, the drilling device will definitely not be needed in a short time.

It was originally planned that after the docking with the space station was successful, the astronauts in the space station would disassemble the device.

Prevent any accidents from being in the space environment for a long time.

After all, if this happens, it is likely to have a big impact on the space station.

But after Xu Yun said this, he clearly noticed that Lei Ming's eyes lit up, as if he had learned another piece of good news that made him excited.

Xu Yun couldn't help but become curious about this, and wanted to know the purpose of the other party's inquiry about the remaining device.

Without thinking much, he blurted out: "Does this drilling device have other uses?"

"There is no need to hide this from you, Academician Xu. We want to conduct a bombardment experiment on the earth." Lei Ming answered the question without any hesitation.

And this answer immediately made Xu Yun understand.

No matter how widely rumored it is by the outside world or his own confirmation, it cannot make up for the fact that this drilling device has not been tested on the earth.

No one can be sure how powerful it can be.

Theory alone won't do without seeing it with your own eyes.

After all, who knows if theories may be wrong sometimes.

The environment of the moon is very different from that of the earth. In this case, since we need to pay attention to this device and use it for space-based weapons, we must conduct an actual earth bombardment experiment.

Only in this way can we better deter the outside world.

At present, the outside world dares to be so confident and is trying to prevent the use and development of this device at all levels. In the final analysis, it still has not seen the power of space-based weapons with its own eyes. If the power that finally breaks out is shocking enough and the deterrence of nuclear weapons is reduced to the greatest extent, then I believe no force will dare to say anything more.

Instead, they chose to put their tail between their legs and find ways to develop their own space-based weapons as soon as possible.

Lei Ming was striking while the iron was hot at this time, and continued what he had just said: "I wonder if I can use this device to conduct an experiment on accurately bombarding ground targets?"

"In addition, you, Academician Xu, may be responsible for the specific command." Finally, Xu Yun was given a new task.

Already understanding Lei Ming and the plan above, Xu Yun must be very supportive of this.

The device he designed should show great strength no matter which field it is used in.

As for him personally being responsible for the launch of the device, it didn't matter.

With the connection of the quantum communication network, he can directly control remotely and issue instructions to allow the spacecraft equipped with the drilling device to leave the moon and enter a new low-Earth orbit.

Once the target is locked, it can be launched directly.

At that time, the device will bombard the ground more violently due to its own accelerated rotation and the effect of the earth's gravity.

In a sense, it's almost like an asteroid hitting the earth.

It's just that its size is much smaller than that of an asteroid.

But even so, the scene will definitely be spectacular.

Xu Yun naturally wouldn't refuse when his thoughts stayed here, and immediately agreed.

"Since I designed this device, I will definitely be responsible for it, but I'm afraid you still need to choose the area for the experiment first."

"Of course, as long as there are no problems on your side, I think the other things will be in place soon." After receiving Xu Yun's affirmative answer again, Lei Ming took the initiative to hold Xu Yun's right hand tightly with excitement on his face.

To be honest, he had considered various issues before coming, such as the untrue claims of space-based weapons.

The remaining drilling device cannot hit ground targets.

If this is the case, the situation will become very difficult, and we will become passive in response to the current global pressure.

After all, as long as the usefulness of the drilling device for space-based weapons is determined, ground experiments must be carried out.

If the existing equipment on the space station cannot be used, it must be remanufactured and launched into low-Earth orbit. It is not known how long it will take for these processes to be carried out before the experiment can be officially launched.

What's more, Xu Yun is currently in charge of the construction of the lunar base, and this project has also attracted the attention of all mankind, and the progress must not be stopped.

Fortunately, the current result satisfies both parties.

Perhaps he was anxious about the space-based weapon bombardment experiment on the ground. At this time, Lei Ming couldn't sit still at all. He even took the initiative to say goodbye to Xu Yun and prepared to leave and return to his life.

"It is really a pleasure to be able to talk to you so much this year, Academician Xu."

"But I need to go back as soon as possible to report the situation. I can only wait until next time to ask Academician Xu for advice."

"I will contact you as soon as the experiment is ready."

With these words, the two people had already arrived at the door. Xu Yun knew that the other party would not be free, so he did not force him to stay. He just opened the door and responded with a smile.

"Sir Lei, it's better to do business first. I can do it here at any time."

"Also, I brought a lot of selected elites with me this time. Their mission is to protect your safety 24 hours a day. Jingzhou has also made adequate arrangements."

"Then I'll trouble you, Chief Lei." Xu Yun was moved when he heard this, and immediately expressed his gratitude to Lei Ming.

He did not reject the other party's arrangement.

He and his family have been on the key protection list for a long time. Although his daily life will not be affected in any way, any possibility of accidents will be ruled out in advance.

The arrangement mentioned by Lei Ming is considered to be on the surface.

The impact of major space-based weapons is too great, and we really need to be cautious at this critical moment.

Anyway, his next main job is still the moon base, and he will not leave here in the short term. It doesn't matter even if there are people around him to protect him at all times.

that's all.

After Lei Ming left the reception room, Bai Ruisong, who learned the news, immediately ran over to see him off.

As for the content of Xu Yun's conversation, they didn't mention a word during the whole process.

After dealing with Lei Ming's matter, Xu Yun was not idle. He went to the lunar base core module manufacturing area according to the previously determined plan. Although Zhou Mingwei was already watching there, he would inevitably be a little worried if he did not personally supervise the guarantee. .

The core module of the lunar base is different from previous launch missions.

If the rocket launch fails, it will cause losses at most, but the core module is related to whether astronauts can live on the moon.

If 100% safety is not guaranteed, any problem will be a crisis for the astronauts.

We must know that compared with spacecrafts that invest a lot of money in research and development, their value is far less important than astronauts, especially with the construction of lunar bases, the astronaut gap will become larger and larger.

There is an urgent need to increase the number of astronauts.

at the same time.

After Lei Ming went back and reported the relevant situation, others naturally felt extremely excited.

The matter of the experiment was decided on the spot.

It was decided to place the experimental site in the desert and execute it as soon as possible.

And Lei Ming is still responsible for the task.

In order to see the power of the space-based weapons designed by Xu Yun as intuitively as possible, some targets must be placed in the experimental area. In general, the preliminary preparations are already in full swing.

Time is like a stubborn donkey, it keeps running.

A few days have passed in the blink of an eye, and the outside world's discussion of space-based weapons has not been affected at all.

Many people and organizations are calling for an end to the development of space-based weapons.

But what surprises many of the forces behind it is that no formal response has been released so far.

Simply put, it means neither admitting nor denying.

Even the Security Council has hit a wall, leaving people feeling helpless and powerless.

After all, space-based weapons are what they think, but the other side has never admitted it.

In this case, if you don't hear it, no one else can care.

However, this makes more and more people unable to sit still. Who knows whether the research and development of space-based weapons is still in progress.

The key point is that apart from verbal attacks, they have no way to take concrete actions.

It can be said that Oaks's condition is not good at all these days. He almost feels like he is mentally weak.

Because his proposal was adopted at the cabinet meeting, he was given full authority to follow up and take charge of this matter. I thought that the Security Council's intervention would have some effect, at least restricting the continued research of space-based weapons.

This can be regarded as buying them time to develop their own space-based weapons as soon as possible.

As long as everyone has mastered space-based weapons, the deterrence brought by this technology will no longer exist.

Unfortunately, the development of the matter was completely different from what he expected. Even in the face of such great global heat, both Xu Yun and his officials at the center of the incident were very calm and did not provide any form of public explanation or response.

In this way, they fell into passivity and did not know how to plan their next actions.

"Still no response from them?"

In the office of the person in charge of the security building, Oaks raised his hand and rubbed his head, feeling slightly depressed.

Ask the subordinate in front of you about the situation.

It is no exaggeration to say that he has not had a good rest these past few days.

I'm afraid that if this continues, his body will not be able to hold on before the other party responds.

As for Oakes' confidant, Provenzano quickly answered the officer's question.

Still disappointing bad news.

"Currently, the other party still has no channel to respond to this matter. Could it be that it is indeed just an ordinary drilling device?" At the end of the sentence, he hesitated a little and added a few more words of his own point of view.

Upon hearing this, Oaks suddenly raised his eyes, looked at the other party, and uttered a word from his mouth.

"madness!"

Obviously he doesn't agree with Provenzano's point of view at all.

After the mood calmed down a little, he explained: "I'm afraid the other party wants us to think it is an ordinary drilling device, so that we can continue to research space-based weapons in the dark. If we really believe it, there will be no way to reverse the situation." Opportunity."

As soon as he finished speaking, he asked another question.

"Let me ask you why they suddenly built a moon base. Based on the information I have, there was no such plan before."

Meeting his commander's gaze, Provenzano thought for a moment and then expressed his judgment.

"Are they doing this for this bombing experiment?"

"I think that's it." Oaks nodded and stood up and said, "The so-called moon base is just a cover. When everyone's attention is attracted, no one will pay attention to the experiment of space-based weapons."

I have to say that Oakes's analysis also makes some sense. Thinking from the perspective he knows, it is indeed abnormal to suddenly build a moon base in a grand manner.

Because this is destined to be impossible to succeed.

If it is just to facilitate the experiment of space-based weapons, it seems much more reasonable.

There is even no need to actually build a lunar base at all. The lava tube tunnel can be used as an excuse to continue bombarding the moon and complete experiments with space-based weapons.

Provenzano trusts his superiors quite a bit, and when faced with this explanation, it does make some sense if he thinks about it carefully.

But it is meaningless to talk about these now. The key is how to prevent the opponent from continuing to develop space-based weapons.

Buy themselves time.

After thinking about this clearly, he immediately asked: "Then what should we do next?"

"It's impossible for the other party not to respond all the time. Keep the current heat and continue to increase the pressure." Oakes immediately answered firmly after thinking about it in his mind.

Provenzano was relieved to hear the follow-up arrangements, and then talked about another thing.

"Sir."

"Mr. Nibison, the head of the Aeronautics and Space Administration, wants to meet with you. Do you want to come down?"

"Nibissen?" Oakes repeated at the name.

After thinking about it for two or three seconds, he waved his hand and said, "Let's arrange it in the afternoon."

"Okay sir."

After the report, Provenzano didn't even stay in the office. He nodded in response and turned around to leave.

But Oakes was still thinking about Nibisen.

He didn't have much contact with the other party, but now both of them have been involved in the space-based weapons incident, and to a certain extent they can be regarded as brothers.

Nibisen is currently assigned to be responsible for restarting the moon landing plan, but also accelerating the research and development of space-based weapons.

Although they have begun to develop space-based weapons very early, they are not far behind Xu Yun's technology. It is simply impossible to complete the research and development in a short time.

Faced with this pressure, solutions will certainly be actively sought.

It turned out that Nibison was indeed very anxious. After receiving the relevant news, he appeared in Oakes' office on time in the afternoon.

"Ox, you must help this time. I would like to invite other council members to cooperate in the development of space-based weapons."

Nibison went straight to the point after meeting Oaks and made his intention clear immediately.

The Space Exploration Technology Company is responsible for the moon landing, so there is nothing for him to worry about. The key is to suddenly speed up the research progress of space-based weapons. There is really no way to do this.

After all, if the development of space-based weapons was so smooth, how could it not be deployed yet?

Therefore, in this case, we can only take corresponding measures and cooperate with other forces to share technology and concentrate on research and development.

Weapons have always been the foundation for power to gain a foothold in the world, especially important technologies such as space-based weapons.

You must know that even the research on combat aircraft carriers is absolutely confidential, for fear of leaking a little bit, let alone space-based weapons that can have the right to speak, so technology sharing is simply impossible.

But now someone has conquered space-based weapons, and everyone is no longer on the same track. In this situation, cooperation seems to be the best way to speed up research and development progress.

Nibisen knew that Oakes had organized similar multi-party cooperation before, and it might go more smoothly with the help of the other party.

Oakes was somewhat surprised after hearing Nibisen's thoughts.

I didn't expect that the other party would take such measures.

But it should be said that there is really no more suitable way than this.

Express your attitude with a little thought.

"Technology sharing and cooperative research and development is indeed a good way. I will propose and try my best to facilitate this matter."

It was a reassurance for Nibisen.

Sure enough, Nibisen was relieved when he heard this, and a smile gradually appeared on his face.

"With your words, I feel relieved."

"Let's focus on the research and development of space-based weapons first. As for the postponement of the moon landing, it doesn't matter. The moon base opposite can't be built." Oakes then reminded.

Although this sentence made Nibisen a little confused, in the end he just regarded it as news from other channels and did not ask too much.

——

And just when the overseas council members worked hard to promote cooperation and decided to jointly develop space-based weapons, Lei Ming finally completed the deployment of the experimental area and other issues.

Implement a blockade of desert areas within designated areas.

After completing these preparations, he found Xu Yun again and prepared to officially start the experiment of bombarding ground targets with the drilling device.

It can be said that once the experiment is successful, this drilling device will directly transform into a space-based weapon.

At the same time, this will also give the world a surprise and provide the most powerful response to the world. We do have space-based weapons and have completed experiments on precise bombardment of ground targets.
