Five Hundred and Sixty First Broken Cocoon
Ye Han jumped to the designated position, picked up a boulder with a diameter of no less than one meter under his feet, easily lifted it over his head and threw it out of the pit with force. ??
The boulder thrown out of the pit is like the slow motion in the movie. It flies to the highest point and then falls slowly. .
However, Ye Han's movements were not slow at all, large and small stones were thrown out of the pit one after another, and those with suitable shapes rolled down the hill, and those with too many edges and corners were directly piled up on the hillside. Meadow-high stone piles.
With the low gravity of the moon and the strength bonus of the 2.0 version of the armor, there is no difficulty in lifting rocks with a mass of less than five tons. When all the equipment in the two bases on the moon is combined, there is no one that is more suitable for cleaning pits. equipment.
Stones of higher quality can also be lifted, but that may damage the armor due to the heavy load, so Ye Han will not do such a thing that is not worth the candle.
There are too many rocks in the pit, three meters of rocks are accumulated outside the pit, but only about one meter is excavated inside the pit.
Ye Han couldn't help asking: "Old Gao, what is the design altitude of the tunnel?"
"Fourteen meters!"
Ye Han sent a positioning request to the satellite, and the satellite determined that his altitude was 17 meters above sea level, that is to say, if he dug down another three meters, he should find the tunneling vehicle.
This is really good news!
The sea on the moon is actually a plain, and there is no real altitude at all. In the past, a crater near the central bay on the front of the moon was forced to set an altitude of 7,000 meters, which served as the sea level benchmark of the moon.
It is simple and convenient to follow the standards of Westerners, but Beidu obviously does not intend to do so. After the Moon Palace project started, it directly set the surface of the ice lake in Pit No. 1 as the sea level datum, and all the height data of China follow this standard.
"Can I get in touch with the boring machine?" Ye Han asked again.
"Okay, how?"
"Turn the communication over, I want to talk to him." Ye Han said.
"Okay." Gao Kai agreed, and soon connected the two people via satellite.
"Brother, how do you feel?" Ye Han greeted.
"It's okay." After a period of precipitation, the trapped driver has calmed down.
Ye Han stomped his feet twice: "Can you hear me?"
"What did you hear?"
"The sound of stomping feet." Ye Han said, "I'm right above you, now I'm stomping, tell me which direction the sound is from!"
Powered armor has limited battery life, and limited power cannot be wasted. Determining the exact position of the tunneling vehicle can save energy to the greatest extent.
"Oh, good!"
Ye Han continued to stamp his feet, and heard the voice of the trapped driver: "In front of me to the right."
Ye Han took two steps and continued to stamp his feet.
"Left to the left!"
Ye Han moved back a little more.
"Going up!"
Finally found the correct location, Ye Han immediately took action, moved what should be moved, pushed what should be pushed, and went all out to dig down. After ten minutes, Ye Han pushed away a boulder that was as tall as a person, and finally found it under the boulder. A twisted steel frame, and a laser drill mounted on the front end of the steel frame.
He immediately cleared away the rocks near the steel frame, exposing the mottled shell of the boring machine.
Ye Han knocked hard on the heavy armor: "Can you hear me?"
"I heard it, very clearly!" The trapped driver said excitedly.
"Old Gao, I have dug the excavator."
The radio waves sent Ye Han's voice into Gao Kai's ears, and Gao Kai breathed a sigh of relief: "Hurry up and save people."
"No problem." Ye Han said, "Which direction is the door?"
The purpose of adding armor to the tunneling vehicle is to prevent landslides. Of course, it will not open a hole in the roof like ordinary tanks.
"Left!" Gao Kai said.
Ye Han looked to the left and couldn't help grinning. It is not so easy to dig out the door of the car because it is crowded with large and small stones outside the car.
"What else am I digging, me!" Ye Han stood on the boring machine and sighed, "It takes only half an hour for the excavation team to transport all the stones.
Do you need to torment me? "
Gao Kai was stunned: "Are you sure?"
"There is a boring machine under my feet, what do you think?" Ye Han said.
The tunnel has been dug to the edge of the crater, and it only needs to work harder to penetrate completely. The top of the collapsed area is not countless basalt rocks, but weathered rocks less than ten meters thick!
As long as the stones blocked at the end of the tunnel are removed, it is equivalent to passing through the entire tunnel. Why is Ye Han so tired that he throws stones like a dog?
Gao Kai forwarded the news to the excavation team, and the team leader slapped his thigh immediately, and immediately ordered the whole team to rush to dig earth and rocks.
A mechanical tunnel boring machine drove into the tunnel, and the crazy spinning drill bit smashed the stone blocking the tunnel.
If you continue to use the laser tunneling machine at this time, there is a possibility of injuring the trapped people if you are not careful.
During the initial establishment of the base, the temporary base was short of people and equipment, but there was no shortage of electricity, so the equipment equipped at that time was mainly driven by electricity.
The advantages of electric drive equipment are outstanding, but there are also many disadvantages. For example, laser excavation equipment cannot be precisely controlled, and often a high-energy laser can cut into the rock formation to a depth of several meters or even tens of meters. Therefore, redundant gaps must be sealed in the later stage of the project to avoid Loss of pressure accident.
Now that the smelting team is in place, the base already has the basic conditions for using traditional equipment, and the equipment that needs to be replaced must be replaced.
A large amount of gravel was sent out of the tunnel through the conveyor belt. After a while, seven sections of the tunnel were cleared, and the bright starry sky could be seen when you looked up.
Ye Han outside saw the rocks deep in the pit start to vibrate, and then the rocks sank quickly. After a while, the huge alloy drill pierced the rock formation.
As the boring machine continued to advance, more and more gravel was transported away by the conveyor belt. Ye Han simply jumped out of the pit, avoiding the boring machine and jumping into the tunnel that was just cleared.
This is considered to be back to the base, and there is no need to fly back at all.
The excavation team was taken aback by Ye Han who fell from the sky. Ye Han revealed his identity and explained the situation outside again.
The excavation team leader was overjoyed after obtaining the first-hand information, and immediately notified Gao Kai: The tunnel will be fully completed soon!
Gao Kai already knew the situation outside from Ye Han, and he had already realized that the tunnel penetration was just around the corner, but he did not rush to report, but patiently waited for the confirmation of the excavation team before reporting the news of the tunnel penetration to the ground.
When the ground command center received the news, it was elated.
The country does its best to support the construction of the moon base. Resisting aliens is only one aspect. Another important reason is to take the first step to control the moon resources.
Although the crater mountain provides a relatively stable environment for the Moon Palace base, the towering peaks also limit the development of the base. The mountain north tunnel is like opening a door and opening a window, showing a wider world to everyone. From then on, the Moon Palace Base no longer needs to be limited to Pit No. 1, creating conditions for further utilization of lunar resources.
This point has extraordinary strategic significance for the Moon Palace Base and the entire country. 8 For more exciting novels, welcome to visit our Reading Academy
