Opening the door, the north wind blew snowflakes all over the floor.
Jiang Chen closed the door, hung the cold-proof clothes on the wall, and walked into the Aerospace Science and Technology Research Institute.
Compared with the "small workshop" before, the current Institute of Aerospace Science and Technology can undoubtedly be called something like that. Spacious front lobby, five-story building. Although there is still a shortage of researchers, at least the space is much larger.
I went straight to Jiang Lin's laboratory and saw that he and several researchers in white coats were tinkering around an oil drum two people high.
Walking forward, Jiang Chen looked at the oil barrel-like thing for a moment and asked aloud.
"This is?"
"Named 'Messenger', the space telescope of the Pan-Asian Cooperation can observe primitive galaxies up to 13.8 billion light-years away from the earth, capturing the light from the beginning of the Big Bang. It can directly observe galaxies within 1-50 light-years, Take an overview of the planet's landforms. You can also observe black holes, dark matter, etc..." Putting the matter at hand aside, Jiang Lin explained to Jiang Chen.
"Good guy, where did you get this thing?" Jiang Chen asked with interest as he stared at it.
"The Zhao Group got it from the Taipei Space Launch Base. This space telescope was originally used to explore extraterrestrial civilizations, but before it was put into use, World War III broke out, so this thing was transported to Taipei. Shelter...you said you wanted me to collect all the equipment related to aerospace, so I bought it."
"How much?"
"10,000 credits." Jiang Lin shrugged.
10,000 credit points is a huge amount of money for ordinary people, but it is nothing to NAC. If placed in front of the station, the cost of building this space telescope would be tens of billions of Pan-Asian coins, but now, it is only worth more than a thousand cans.
"It's of high quality and low price. You did a good job." Jiang Chen smiled, and then looked at the thing a few more times, "How about it, can this thing be repaired?"
"This thing isn't broken in the first place, it's just not finished yet. The survivors in Taipei sold us the design drawings and ground monitoring equipment together. As long as we digest the technology and build the remaining parts, Then just put it on.”
Once this space telescope is completed and launched by Halo Trading, the mystery of the Natural Selection and the Gliese 1g planet will be completely unveiled by Halo Trading. Only when we can see with our own eyes where our enemies are can civilization on earth have the possibility of fighting them.
After instructing Jiang Lin to complete the space telescope as soon as possible, Jiang Chen left the Institute of Aerospace Science and Technology. On the way to the community center, he happened to bump into Wang Qing who was looking for him.
Judging from her expression, she seemed to be in a hurry.
"What's the matter?" Jiang Chen stopped and looked at her and asked.
Wang Qing nodded.
"A signal for help came from Liujing Town."
"Liujing Town?"
As economic exchanges become increasingly close, although Liudian Town is still independent of the NAC-led Wanghai City order, it has now become a vassal of NAC. There is no other reason. No matter how strong its air force and long-range firepower are, its foundation is ultimately at sea, and many things are heavily dependent on imports from survivor bases on shore.
Think about it, what kind of industry can a place the size of an aircraft carrier support
More and more small and medium-sized survivor settlements yearn for order in the area under the rule of the NAC. As the trade with the Sixth District becomes increasingly close, they simply apply to join the NAC's economic zone and accept the protection of the NAC military government. For this reason, it can also save a lot of customs duties and military expenses. This includes the beer bottle company that provides ammunition supplies to Liudian Town, as well as the harbor town that has close trade relations with Liudian Town, etc...
For these small and medium-sized survivor settlements, NAC gives them a high degree of autonomy. The only requirements are to abide by the constitution designated by NAC, pay taxes to NAC in accordance with the charter, etc.
All the younger brothers joined NAC, and Liu Jingzhen naturally became the younger brother of NAC. Although unwilling to accept this fact, after several internal meetings in Liudian Town, under the leadership of capitalists headed by Tang Mia, Liudian Town and NAC signed a defense alliance agreement symbolizing friendship.
Of course, NAC has an obligation to respond to Liudian Town’s call for help.
But what Jiang Chen didn't expect was that he would encounter something like this when he came back temporarily.
"Who is the enemy?" Jiang Chen looked at Wang Qing and asked.
"Not sure if it's an enemy yet..." Wang Qing shook her head, "A destroyer appeared near the aircraft carrier Bohai and has been hovering five kilometers away from the Wanghai City port. Because it is not sure whether the other party is hostile, Liujing Town has been It’s always been stressful to deal with.”
Destroyer
Jiang Chen frowned slightly.
What worried him was not the destroyer, but the new forces that appeared in the waters near Wanghai City. Being able to own a destroyer must be no small thing. Whether this destroyer was inherited from the station or built by them themselves, it was enough to prove that they were difficult to deal with.
And the most incredible thing to him is that there are people who can sail freely in the dangerous deep sea
Jiang Chen heard from Zhao Chenwu that the Zhao Group had a small fleet, but basically it did not dare to leave the shallow sea and only dared to sail along the land. Monsters in the ocean are more than a hundred times more terrifying than those on land.
Apart from the extremely polarized mutant creatures, the strongest one on land is the Mother of Death Claws, which can crawl in front of the Type 50 electromagnetic gun. In the ocean, both the upper and lower limits are unknown.
After all, the two species are not on the same order of magnitude in terms of quantity, density, or volume. If nothing else, a mutated blue whale is almost the size of a Bohai aircraft carrier. Jiang Chen once saw a photo of a mutated blue whale, which was taken by a businessman who went to Japan. The size of the mutated blue whale made it difficult for people to think of what kind of weapons to use to defeat it.
"Have Liujing Town had any contact with the people on the destroyer?"
"They have tried to contact him, but he seems to be negative about the conversation."
Not willing to start a conversation, just wandering near the distant sea.
It is obvious that Liudian Town will feel nervous. The distance between the two sides is too close, and any misjudgment may lead to a misfire. When the destroyer on the opposite side fired a cannon, the Bohai, whose engine had been broken for more than 20 years, could not even hide.
"What do you mean by Liujing Town?" Jiang Chen asked.
"They want us to travel to the mutual defense agreement." Wang Qing said.
Jiang Chen nodded, pondered for a moment and then said.
"Deploy a battalion from the First Corps to Hengsha Island, and send an engineering team to build forts and defenses on Hengsha Island. This matter is left to Cheng Weiguo. He knows how to exercise discretion."
"Hengsha Island is outside the jurisdiction of NAC. There are two alien nests there. Should we send troops directly to enter?" Wang Qing asked.
"Alien lair? It just so happens that NAC's artillery hasn't had military exercises for a long time. Wash the ground with a thousand incendiary bombs before entering the area." Jiang Chen waved his hand and ordered.
"Yes!" Wang Qing stood at attention, saluted, and left after taking the order. (.)
