Chapter 804 Lively Alaska

There are four seasons in a year, why only winter vacation and summer vacation, but no spring vacation and autumn vacation?
Because spring, like autumn, is a season that comes and goes quickly.

Because for the vast majority of human beings, the four seasons of the year are not clear, there are not so many springs and autumns, and more often only winter and summer.

For example, Alaska, because of its unique geographical environment (except for the east, the other three directions are the Arctic Ocean, the Bering Sea, and the North Pacific Ocean.), so it is very cold all year round.

For example, in the area near the Bering Strait, the temperature in summer is 4~16°.

In Hawaii, the same country, the coldest winter temperature is 25~30°
One is that there is no summer, the other is that there is no winter, and there are not even the most basic four seasons, let alone the two seasons of spring and autumn.

The planet is huge, but there are very few areas suitable for human existence.

Near the Bering Strait at the end of April, it was still very cold, and the ground was covered with a thick layer of ice and snow. As a 12-year veteran, Second Lieutenant Jack hid by the fire at the outpost, with a small bag of cotton ready to be roasted beside him sugar.

Normally, these are not allowed.

You must know that this is an outpost, and he is a sentry.

Guards and patrols are a must, but don't forget what this is - Alaska!
The military base where Second Lieutenant Jack is located is a product of the Cold War.

The base is huge. After all, both sides were prepared for the worst at the time, but no one expected to prepare so much, but in the end it led to a direction that no one thought of, but it was precisely because of the fall of one of the two poles, That's why I got the leisurely and relaxed job of Second Lieutenant Jack.

Such a large semi-permanent military base cannot be left here like this. Even if Ying Jiang doesn't want to take care of it, the taxpayers will not allow you to do it, but if it is put into use?

After all, there is still a Canadian country between Alaska and Yingjiang, the distance is too far, and the two bears on the other side of the river are now so poor that they only have ammunition left.

Ying Jiang didn't want to really offend these barbarians in the north.

So this huge, semi-permanent military base has been in a half-dead state for more than ten years, and even the soldiers here have become Buddha-like.

For example, Second Lieutenant Jack, although his salary is not high, but he has few things to do.

How leisurely is this job?

Except for the road, there is more than one meter of snow all around.

It is clear at a glance, and there is no possibility of being sneaked in. The time of inspection every year is after the snow melts.

But this is Alaska, and it's near the icy Bering Strait, and the snow doesn't start to melt until June.

It is the beginning of melting, rather than complete melting. The entire melting process will last for two to three months. When two-thirds of the snow covered on the ground melts, the first snow in Alaska will come, and the soil that was finally exposed will once again covered with snow.

This also means that Second Lieutenant Jack only needs to stand guard for two or three months in the summer of the year to be qualified for this job.

You only need to work for two or three months a year, and you can get a full annual salary. Is there a more comfortable job than this, apart from the need to endure loneliness?

For example, at this moment, it is at the end of April.

There are still two months before the snow officially starts to thaw, and the cold air is threatening for tens of miles, and the ground is covered with neat and smooth white snow. Blown by the cold wind outside.

The cold wind was blowing outside, and the fire inside the house was burning.

I found an iron braze and put a string of marshmallows on it. I watched the marshmallows melt and expand under the high temperature, and the color was close to caramel.

Second Lieutenant Jack happily put it on his mouth and blew, then bit down.

The caramel-colored shell is quickly cooled at low temperature to form a thin shell, which is crunchy in the mouth, with melted marshmallow inside, delicate and soft in the mouth, with a rich strawberry sweetness.

There is still a mass of marshmallows that have not been completely melted inside, and the unique taste is somewhat similar to half-melted chocolate.

It's such an amazing feeling, Lieutenant Jack said he could sit around the campfire and eat all day.

Unfortunately, the last few days of April had some minor mishaps.

The orders were issued together without warning, and there were many more people in the military base. Unlike the sloppy second lieutenant Jack, these soldiers had a lot of momentum, not like smooth veterans at all. They were strictly disciplined, energetic, and murderous.

Obviously, this is a team that has experienced the baptism of war.

Secondly, the base that was originally empty has now been cleaned very clean.

How clean is it?
Second Lieutenant Jack has served in this military base for 12 years. This is the first time he has seen the whole picture of the base that is not covered by snow, the clean ground, the flat training ground, the straight flight runway, and he even saw a B2 bomber.

Proper black technology is the only stealth bomber in the world.

It was officially put into service in 21, and a total of 24 aircraft were produced. The cost of each aircraft was 2 billion U.S. dollars. If measured by weight, the weight unit price of the b[-] bomber is two or three times that of gold.

Is this going to war?

Second Lieutenant Jack was a little puzzled and worried.

The doubt is because the current world situation is complicated, and there is a cross-age black technology weapon such as the ultimate killer. If World War I and World War II are compared to death harvesters, if World War III really broke out?

Humanity will usher in an unprecedented dark age.

Don't think this kind of rhetoric is an exaggeration. Although missiles will be intercepted, currently no country dares to say that they can achieve 100% interception. A large number of missiles are launched, as long as one missile is detonated in the central city?

The long-term peaceful development has caused a very fatal problem. More and more talents will involuntarily gather in big cities for development.

Because big cities have better conditions and more opportunities.

But this also means that talents are highly concentrated. Once a big city is bombed, the damage to the country will be fatal.

The ultimate killer is deadly. The killing area with a radius of five kilometers is equivalent to 78 square kilometers, which is enough to destroy the center of a city. In addition, it cannot be intercepted 100%, which means that any country in the world, even a powerful Eagle sauce is also unwilling to break out in the third war.

The economic setback is secondary, and the devastation is the real fatality.

You must know that the reason why many places can develop is not because of the support of policies, but because of their unique geographical location.

For example, the most famous Panama Grand Canal, the loss of stopping for one day is 800 billion.

If the canal were blown up with missiles, trade between the Pacific and Atlantic would be disrupted, causing global prices to soar.

On the other hand, the worry is because Jack is afraid of death.

Although he is a 12-year veteran, the deserted life of these years has already caused him to lose the ability that a soldier should have. The bullets on the battlefield are not long. Oil seeds.

Often the first batch of cannon fodder to fall.

Don't take veterans too seriously.

Really capable veterans have long been laid off and re-employed as bosses. Veterans with backgrounds will not stay in one position for 12 years. Second lieutenants seem to be officers, but they are the lowest-ranking officers.

In a large-scale war, this kind of self is pure cannon fodder.

Second Lieutenant Jack was very anxious, but it was useless for him to be anxious. These little wolf cubs who came by air did not communicate with him at all, so that in the first few days, Second Lieutenant Jack could only watch quietly like an outsider. Base changes.

This situation lasted until the afternoon at the end of April, when a soldier with live ammunition changed his defense.

Second Lieutenant Jack struggled for a long time, and finally couldn't help asking:

"Dude, is war coming?"

The little wolf cub with a steel gun in his hand looked at Second Lieutenant Jack with a vigilant expression:

"Why are you asking this?"

The second lieutenant didn't panic, he raised his eyebrows, and made a look that I understand: "This is Alaska, which is very cold. I have been stationed here for 12 years. Except for wild animals, there is no human habitation here. I Know what's across the sea."

The soldier with the gun shook his head, not intending to say anything:
"You think too much, it's just a simple switch."

But Second Lieutenant Jack didn't intend to let it go. He is very anxious now, and urgently needs to know what happened: "My eyes are not blind. Besides b2, is there another bomber with such a strange shape in the world?"

"click~"

The black gun was aimed at himself, Lieutenant Jack froze suddenly, raised his hands quickly, and explained in a panic: "Wait, buddy, don't point the gun at me, it's just pure curiosity, and my mouth very solid,"

Looking at Jack with warning eyes, the soldier said coldly:
"Don't ask what you shouldn't ask!"
