I Have a Mansion in the Post-apocalyptic World Chapter 772: Icebreak landing

"The cold wind is like a knife, using the earth as a chopping board, and seeing all beings as fish. Thousands of miles of snow, the sky is used as a furnace, and everything is silver ..."

Jiang Chenqing couldn't help thinking of the words of Grandpa Jin when he saw the snow flakes in the sky and roared into a misty white wall in the storm.

Good luck seems to have run out. On the coast of George V, the Pathfinder encountered a blizzard from the polar regions.

The big ice cubes smashed on the research ship, but this was the Pathfinder designed for bad weather. How could this level of storms be disturbed?

Because he was n’t sure where the wind was, Captain Marshall, in order to prevent the Pathfinder from tipping over, directly swung the wide ice-breaking bow in the direction of the storm, and then anchored to wait for the storm to pass.

Waiting is also waiting. The head of the delegation simply gathered the delegation and the crew together. Fifty people set up five tables and started a hot pot under the canteen. Several Californians who couldn't eat chili were spicy tongues, which caused other people's laughter.

The storm is blowing outside and the hot pot is lit inside. This feeling is really not normal.

Jiang Chen, who has n’t eaten hot pot in a long time, was so spicy for the first time, eating several bowls of rice in a row. Seeing that the chairman is so close to the people, the members of the delegation also let go a lot, and a pretty little girl has been feeding him. Whether it is white, black or yellow, you can speak Chinese. The guys were drinking meat while drinking, and chatting happily.

But Garrett they are stubborn and do not drink.

As soldiers of the “sea lion” special forces, protecting Jiang Chen ’s safety is their first priority. Not to mention the drunkenness of the wine, it is necessary to have a disciplined shift when eating. Although some distressed these soldiers, Jiang Chen did not say much.

Discipline is discipline. For soldiers, discipline is above everything else.

Since this is the team brought out by Garrett, everything is up to him. Jiang Chen is very clear that his own chairman's casual gestures will only cause confusion to others.

That's it, the storm continued until the next morning.

The Pathfinder retracted its anchor chain, adjusted its course, and continued on the coast of George V.

......

In the captain's room, Captain Marshall dangled his cigar, frowning slightly at the location on the map.

After a while, he took off his cigar, and turned his inquiry to Jiang Chen with his arms folded. Just ten minutes ago, the chairman of the group found him and suddenly asked him to change his original login location and deploy the station to this location on the map.

"Why did you choose to build an investigation station here? Whether it is climatic conditions or supply costs, this is far inferior to Ross Bay." Two fingers holding a cigar nodded the red circle on the map, Marshall asked .

"But the nearby waters are rich in combustible ice reservoirs." Jiang Chen shrugged.

It is true that the seabed has rich combustible ice reservoirs, but this is not a deeper reason.

Here is the closest to the coordinates on the codebook, which is why he chose this place. The reason why he didn't disclose the news before, but now he suddenly found Captain Marshall is mainly concerned that the ship has many eyes and may leak the information in advance.

"It's too chaotic." Marshall shook his head, sighed, and looked at the first officer, "Reduce the speed of the ship, the login location has changed!"

While dissatisfied with Chairman Hu Lai, who wants him to be chairman? He is now receiving twice as much salary as his peers, and he cannot express more complaints just for the salary.

In this way, the Pathfinder turned a corner on the original route and diverted towards the hinterland of Cape Goodenough.

There is thick ice on the sea, but it is not difficult for the polar research ship with ice breaking function. I saw that the wide bow directly hit the thick ice, and then used its thousands of tons to crush the ice directly. It's like a roller mill sailing in an ice river, rolling a blue course on the frozen sea.

Many members of the delegation went to the bow and took out their phones to take pictures. Although some of them are not the first time to come to the Polar Region, they have few chances to see the icebreaker breaking ice. Many people have seen it for the first time.

Jiang Chen is also standing on the bow.

This is the first time he has seen how an icebreaker works.

He used to think that the icebreaker was "cutting" by the bow, but he never expected that the icebreaker was "pressing" by his own weight.

"Fortunately, there was no thick ice that could not be pressed. The explosives we carried were out of use. This is the best." Standing in the air-conditioned cabin, Captain Marshall wiped his face. The sweat on the door looked at Jiang Chen who was pushing the door in. "Close the door, my sweat is freezing!"

Jiang Chen smiled friendlyly and immediately closed the door behind him. He hung the winter clothes beside the door and walked to his side.

"How is it? In your experience, is this coast suitable for deployment of research stations?"

"The terrain is okay, but in the future, I am afraid that it will be a bit troublesome." Marshall glanced at the ice outside the window and picked up the ballpoint pen to draw a line on the map. Cut a triangle here, and then push it out to the ocean ... I suggest to push it out. If it is blown up directly, the international environmental protection organization will probably find us in trouble. "

"You can come as you like, I believe in your technology." Jiang Chen smiled.

Marshall grinned and put his cigar back on his mouth.

"Leave it to me."

......

In the middle of Goodenough Point, on the sea frozen by the ice shelf, Pathfinder squeezed the opening outward along the triangle. Several crew members wearing winter clothes jumped vigorously on the triangular ice shelf, and chiseled a dozen or so piles on the outer edge of the ice shelf with long nails.

The graphene cable was dropped from the ship. The crew clenched the rope tightly on the nails and then returned to the ship. These cables are tied to the mechanical arm of the polar survey ship, which is the strongest place of the whole ship.

Everything is ready, Marshall holding a cigar starts to increase the horsepower and drives the boat outward.

The graphene cable gradually tightened, making a creaking noise.

At this time, Jiang Chen was surprised to find that the ice surface of several square kilometers was pulled by the tiny research ship and was slightly loosened!

"Do n’t look at that ice surface is scary, we just need to give it an acceleration, and it will run out on its own." Marshall said with a smile, pointing out the window, "These cables are really sturdy than our previous I use steel wire rope, which is too tough, not only easy to break, but also easy to hurt myself. "

"Graphene material."

"Really? Technology is a magical thing." Marshall grinned.

The ice outside the window moved slowly, and the crew cheered from the bow. The members of the expedition have returned to the cabin, the Pathfinder is about to land, and they should go back to pack up. (To be continued.)
