Six Hundred and Twenty Sixth Rescued
The familiar sense of powerlessness spread all over his body, and the lost consciousness rolled back like a tide. Ye Han suddenly realized that he was saved!
Opening his eyes, the dim light made his eyes sting, so he could only close them again, and open them slowly after adapting for a while.
"You're awake, how are you feeling?" said a voice.
Ye Han moved his mouth, but he couldn't make a sound. He immediately realized that his vocal cords hadn't recovered yet.
He wasn't in a hurry to speak, he just glanced at the blurry figure, showed a forced smile, and signaled that he was fine.
"Don't worry, it will be fine soon." The man said as he untied the restraint, and Ye Han floated up from the hospital bed lightly, moving his hands and feet slowly while observing around.
He didn't know where it was, it looked like it should be the medical cabin of a battleship.
The medical cabin is quite large. Besides Ye Han, there are more than a dozen hospital beds in the cabin, and there are not a few of his companions who escaped on the same landing craft as him. This discovery made him feel more at ease, and waited for his body to return to normal.
His eyesight recovered first, and he saw clearly that there was a major officer wearing a red cross insignia in front of him. He tried to clear his throat, and then asked in a hoarse voice, "What is this place?"
The military doctor smiled: "Here is the flagship of the expedition fleet, Kunlun."
"Expeditionary fleet?" Ye Han was stunned suddenly, "You mean expeditionary fleet?"
"Yes, expeditionary fleet."
"How is it possible?" Ye Han immediately remembered the short but tragic war.
The military doctor seemed to think of something: "Oh, to be precise, the Second Fleet of the Expeditionary Force."
"Second Fleet?" Ye Han murmured and repeated, "What about the First Fleet?"
The military doctor said solemnly: "Have you forgotten that the First Fleet has died on the Jupiter battlefield? Do you need me to check for you?"
"No, no need." Ye Han refused, thought for a while and asked again, "I mean, do the family know about our affairs, the First Fleet?"
"Should know that I'm just a military doctor."
Ye Han nodded: "That's good."
His brain has resumed functioning,
This sentence is not a casual question.
If Earth had sent a second expeditionary fleet unaware of what happened to the First Fleet, then this fleet would likely have had the same outcome as the First Fleet.
On the contrary, if the earth is well aware of the situation of the first fleet, and still insists on sending the second fleet, then there must be some deep meaning.
Ye Han, who was relieved, felt much better, and suddenly asked again: "What is this place?"
The military doctor was startled, and stared blankly at Ye Han, not knowing how to answer.
Ye Han twitched the corner of his mouth: "I mean, where is the fleet at present?"
"Asteroid belt!" The military doctor replied without thinking, "I can't tell exactly where it is."
Ye Han nodded: "How long have I been asleep?"
The military doctor started to be in a daze, Ye Han asked again: "The current date!"
"September 14, 2025!"
"September 14 is almost eight months away!" Ye Han sighed with emotion, "By the way, how did you rescue the rest of us?"
The landing craft flew from Jupiter to the earth, and the second fleet flew from the earth to Jupiter. According to Ye Han's experience, the relative speed between the two should exceed one hundred kilometers per second.
At such a speed, even a touch of the edge would result in the destruction of the ship and the loss of life. He really couldn't figure out what method the Second Fleet used to get the landing craft onto the battleship.
The military doctor replied: "We have a special rescue boat"
"Can this thing slow down and catch up with us, and then turn around and catch up with the fleet?"
"Yes!" The military doctor replied affirmatively, "It just takes longer."
"How long did it take?"
"It's more than a dozen." The military doctor said, "I heard that the fleet discovered your location half a month ago. In order to save you, the fleet made a deliberate circle."
"Walking around?" Ye Han was even more astonished, "Did you just say 2025 or 2125?"
"Why, what's the matter?" The military doctor was extremely surprised.
"It's only been a year, and the First Fleet didn't even dare to turn a corner. Now you tell me that the Second Fleet has circled around. How much fuel will it take?"
The military doctor suddenly realized and couldn't help laughing: "Chief, the Second Fleet has indeed undergone many changes. Let's just talk about this engine. We are all using nuclear-powered engines now. It doesn't take much to go around. The same goes for the rescue boat. With nuclear power, you don’t even need two taels of fuel to fly for half a month.”
"Is this nuclear power?" Ye Han couldn't believe his ears.
"Except for battleships, only rescue boats are nuclear-powered." The military doctor explained, "I don't know the specifics."
"Hey, if only we had nuclear power too."
The military doctor hurriedly changed the topic: "Chief, Commander Gao told me that I would like you to come over, as if I wanted to ask about the situation."
"Got it." Ye Han nodded and began to put on clothes.
The military doctor reached out for help, but Ye Han flatly refused.
Just kidding, he has hands and feet, and he is not in his seventies and eighties, so he needs someone to help him put on clothes?
It's fine if it's a pretty little nurse, but what kind of hand can a rough old man stretch out? Damn which paw I stretch out, which one I chop!
Ye Han, who was full of resentment, kept cursing in his heart the expedition fleet that only had rough men, and did not stop until he left the infirmary.
The Kunlun is very big, with all kinds of passages extending in all directions. Ye Han, who left the infirmary, went to the headquarters under the guidance of the sailors. After drifting for a while, he didn't reach the place. I feel that this battleship is bigger than the ant nest in Linyi. complex.
A quarter of an hour later, Ye Han finally saw the signboard of the headquarters. The sailor leading the way shouted a report, and stepped aside after the door opened, allowing Ye Han to enter the headquarters.
The area of the headquarters is small, but there are many people. Various complex data charts are displayed on the screen wall. In the center of the headquarters is a table-like display platform with a length and width of more than one meter. Three-dimensional picture, several officers surrounding the platform are wearing three-dimensional glasses on their faces.
Seeing Ye Han enter the door, the only major general among the officers took off his glasses and smiled happily: "Yo, look who's here!"
"Old Gao?" Ye Han was taken aback, "Why are you? How did you become the commander of the fleet?"
Gao Kai spread his hands: "I can't always be the director of the base, can I?"
Ye Han smiled: "That's true."
It is not easy to be the director of the base. There are many objective reasons for Gao Kai to be able to take that position. When the expedition fleet set off, the Beiyuezhou base was already very big. At that time, it was reported that Gao Kai was about to be transferred. The news, but before the definite news, the expedition fleet left.
Seeing Gao Kai here now, it is obvious that Gao Kai has been transferred and promoted, and he must have received at least half a year of pre-job training this year.
