I am really a language teacher

"I don't think we should let the members of the council do this?" Liu Qiang, one of the joint commanders of the Supreme Command, patted the table and asked.

The leading body of the Water Blue Star Joint Defense Committee is the Supreme Command, and the Supreme Command adopts a joint management system.Cathay, Russia and the United States each send a joint commander, and the European Union and Japan each send a deputy commander.The deputy commander is responsible for the management of daily and administrative work, and the joint commander is the real manager, but the three must agree to take action.

"I recommend that the joint meeting immediately issue the A17 order to take obliteration action against the council."

Order A17 is one of the authorized orders of the joint meeting. The troops who get this order can take free actions within the specified time and within the specified range, and these actions will not be reported.Because of this, the joint commanders of the United States have always opposed it.

"We and them are just different in concept. If we have to announce the A17 order because of this, aren't we too cruel?" The US joint commander questioned.At the same time he took out the Bible and the cross, and began to pray.

"Cruel? This is a crime against humanity!" The Russian joint commander finally broke the recent silence and roared loudly.

"Just allow them to use 'bigbang' to attack us, and we are not allowed to use weapons? If you think it is too cruel to use obliteration on them, then I will give a compromise suggestion. We will give them a week to lay down their weapons before the official attack .If they turn themselves in to us, we give a legal trial and let the judges decide their punishment.

But if we don't lay down our arms after a week, then we will be regarded as criminals against humanity, and we will give military strikes!I can guarantee that if they lose the war, we can treat them as prisoners of war under the Geneva Treaty, how about that? "

After two consecutive days of discussions, the High Command finally issued the A17 order.This is a devastating blow to the council.After all, the Joint Defense Committee is a political and military alliance formed by the powerful countries of the Water Blue Star, and what about this council?Except for the South Korean government who jumped out to support it, the rest of the countries watched the show one after another.Of course, there are some maverick non-government organizations that are also supporters of the council.But even so, if only one South Korean government wants to confront so many countries, fate is doomed.

In just three days, the entire South Korea disappeared from the Water Blue Planet, replaced by the Sea Blue Star Joint Defense Committee Trusteeship Area.Some administrative organs of the committee have moved here from various places to facilitate their work.

The crew members of the Mars Explorer are naturally not aware of what happened on the water blue planet, and after eleven days of voyage, the Explorer finally entered the Mars synchronous orbit.Now it's time to adjust the flight attitude to send the Mars Lander to the surface of Mars.Since the atmosphere on the surface of Mars is very thin, there is no need to worry about the overheating of the hull during landing.

After a series of tweaks and tests, Lander was finally ready.Except for Vladimir and Yuko Oshima who stayed on the explorer, the remaining five crew members will take the lander to Mars.After confirming with the ground command center and obtaining authorization, five crew members climbed onto the lander and began to wait for the launch of the explorer.

Lander is similar to a large cylindrical armored fortress, with a cockpit and return cabin on the top, and five people sit around it.The upper middle part is the warehouse and propulsion module attached to the return capsule, the lower middle part is the refuge cabin designed for future members of the Zhurong base, and the bottom part is the storage cabin for two Mars rovers and a Mars plane.

Before the Mars Explorer arrived on Mars, humans had deployed several remote sensing and communication satellites on Mars, and several exploration satellites were closely monitoring Mars.After all, Martian dust storms are still very famous. Although they may not directly pose a threat to humans, they will definitely cause great trouble to human exploration activities.

"Good luck to you!" Vladimir sent blessings to Sun Ping and others when he pressed the release button.

The Mars Lander was dropped by the Mars Explorer. When the Lander began to feel the gravity of Mars, the parachute began to open.When the lander was more than [-] meters above the ground of Mars, the propellers of the spacecraft were turned on, and the reverse propulsion was used to help the lander land safely.

"You have safely landed on Mars, please start to confirm that the system is normal, hope everything goes well!"

"Thank you very much, Vladimir." Sun Ping replied, and then Sun Ping began to give orders to the expedition members.

"Montgomery, open the observation window of the spacecraft and start to check whether there is any problem with the lander. Ouyang Yong, start to contact the satellites, and establish a data link with them, and send the relevant data to the screen as soon as possible. Emma, ​​establish a good relationship with Shui Lanxing The direct communication channel of the ground command center, and at the same time establish the connection between Lander and Adventurer, Challenger and Discovery, and try to get out of the ship today to do a close survey. Spike, try to get in touch with the control computer of Zhurong base, When necessary, we may need its robot to help us. Let’s start working, try to finish it early, and then go to the living cabin for lunch.”

"Captain, will the Zhurong Mars base be built near us in the future?" Emma, ​​who was establishing a communication channel, asked.

"This is the rendering of the first phase." Sun Ping showed the appearance of the first phase of Zhurong Base on the central screen.

The first phase of the Zhurong base will be in the shape of a cross, and the part of the lander that is close to the nearby cliff is the formal cross, with the control cabin and command cabin in the middle.On the opposite side of the lander are the scientific research cabin, equipment cabin, etc., while the other two sides are the living cabin and the planting cabin.

In the second phase, the Zhurong base will become a concave shape.The rectangle on the east side is the living cabin, entertainment cabin, and refuge cabin; the west side is the agricultural area, industrial area, and warehouse; the back under the cliff is the command cabin, experiment cabin, and equipment warehouse.

The final Zhurong base will be in the shape of a ring, with a circular command cabin in the middle, two new floors will be built, and then there will be a two-story ring building outside, the inner ring is the living area, and the outer ring is the work area.In the finalized base, in addition to the ground floor or buildings on both sides, there will be one to two floors underground.

At the same time, according to the revised plan, if the White Dove Project is forced to start, then an underground subway will be built here to connect with the nearest refuge.At that time, this base will be an observation post for humans to observe the earth when they take refuge on Mars.

After more than an hour of hard work by everyone, the tasks ordered by Sun Ping were basically completed, so everyone went to the living cabin for dinner.After a short rest, everyone decided to start the first ship inspection.Spike, as the deputy captain and first mate, was asked to stay for command and analysis; Liaison Officer Emma was also left as a liaison officer and intelligence collector.

Sun Ping, Ouyang Yong and Montgomery put on special Martian spacesuits and headed to the equipment cabin.Sun Ping took the Adventurer, Ouyang Yong chose the Challenger, and Montgomery boarded the Discovery, responsible for surveillance and escort in the air.After confirming with Spike, Spike opened the equipment compartment. First, Montgomery's Discovery flew out, followed by the Adventurer and Challenger.

"Please note that although according to our observations, there are no other living things on Mars for the time being. But for safety, if you find any objects that may pose a threat to your safety, you can directly use firepower without authorization." Sun Ping instructed , "Whether it is the Adventurer, Challenger or Discovery, they are all equipped with electromagnetic guns. Please pay attention to your spacesuits. There is a holster on the right outer thigh, and there are electromagnetic pistols inside; there are about eight electromagnetic grenades around the waist; in addition You also have a Vibration Particle Knife hidden on the outside of each of your boots. Make good use of these weapons, because the next mission will be exciting!"

Sun Ping and his colleagues set off at the X coordinate (that is, the central coordinate of the future Mars base), and after bypassing the cliff, they walked on the flat road between the peaks on both sides.This is the base construction site carefully selected by everyone, a basin with a large area.There are two passages on the back of the basin to leave here, and there is a towering mountain not far from the south side.Basically, even if there is a large-scale Martian dust storm, it will remain safe here.

After the rover drove for about an hour, everyone finally left the basin.According to the results of the previous investigation, everyone can drive to the northeast for about half an hour to see a cliff, which will be one of the entrances to the refuge.Soon, Sun Ping and the others discovered the cliff.

"Montgomery, you stay on the ground. Ouyang Yong and I will go down with the communication robots and arrange them in some key positions."

The communication robot is a communication device that can move freely in a small area. Put them down where there may be a signal screen.They can adjust their positions to ensure signal relay; they can also act as data storage devices at critical moments, and enter data protection mode after storing data.At this time, the robot will be firmly fixed nearby, and then turn off all electrical equipment, and only send a distress signal every 15 minutes.Therefore, communication robots have become standard equipment for many expeditions, and this expedition to Mars is no exception.

Sun Ping and Ouyang Yong got off from their respective Mars rovers. Sun Ping said in the communicator: "This time the Mars space suit is specially made, and the surface is very tough, which can resist the abrasion, scratches and punctures when we climb. At the same time You should also feel that the mobility of the entire spacesuit has been greatly enhanced. The special one-piece underwear that matches the spacesuit is made of special biological materials, and it sticks to our body like skin. In addition to monitoring our body In addition to the data, it can also neutralize sweat and other excrement. Well, let's go down and see the world inside Mars!"

In fact, this entrance is not as troublesome as Sun Ping imagined.Because this is one of the real entrances, there is actually a way to get in.Although the road has been blurred after tens of thousands of years of weathering, there is still a direction, and at the same time, there is no special existence in this direction that will destroy the spacesuit.

After Sun Ping and Ouyang Yong explained the tasks, they also communicated with Montgomery.Since both the Mars rover and the Mars aircraft are powered by nuclear fusion, the energy is sufficient for more than a week.And there is no problem with the heating at night, and Montgomery has thrown a lot of early warning robots here.At the same time, there are companions in the rear and in space who are responsible for simultaneous monitoring, so there is no problem with safety.

After bidding farewell to Montgomery, Sun Ping led Ouyang Yong down the cliff.Of course, the heart rate of the two also suddenly increased a lot, because this is really an exciting adventure.
