Chapter 140 Digital Battlefield

Xu Yunlai was very nervous as he held the electromagnetic rifle in his arms.

The comrade beside him, Yang Tao, pushed him and said, "Be a man, don't be a coward. We are fighting a group of natives who use flintlock guns and smoothbore cannons. Are you afraid of this?"

Xu Yunlai said sternly: "I'm not afraid, don't talk nonsense!"

Yang Tao laughed and hugged his comrade. Both of them were wearing camouflage-colored individual armors. When the armors collided, they made a sound like metal or plastic.

"It's okay to be afraid. Which of our crew members and soldiers in the entire company has actually fought in a war?" Yang Tao couldn't help but sigh.

Just two months ago, they were a group of soldiers participating in various training and exercises step by step. Although they kept shouting that everything would be suitable for actual combat, few people felt that they would really go to the battlefield. Now, they were only dozens of minutes away from the battlefield.

The experience during this period can be said to be a dream for Xu Yunlai and Yang Tao, who are only 19 years old. They were given a ring-like thing in the dormitory, and then a group of people entered another world. There they learn new knowledge and learn to use new weapons.

After a month of this intensive training, Xu Yunlai and Yang Tao were put on a spaceship across the star system and arrived at Cuihai Star. Here they were liberated by genetic superiority, and each met the guys they had used in the "Dream World".

Xu Yunlai could feel that the armor on his body seemed to contain huge power. After coming to Cuihaixing for three weeks of adaptive training, Xu Yunlai already understood that wearing the saber-toothed tiger individual armor, he was simply a superman!

Yang Tao patted him on the shoulder and comforted him: "Don't think too much, just carry out the mission and finish the fight early."

Xu Yunlai nodded and said nothing. The entire Y-20 cabin fell into silence again. More than a hundred mobile infantry who had just completed training were somewhat nervous at this moment. They realized that once they jumped out of the plane and landed on the ground, they would take lives.

At this time, on an air and space destroyer behind the assault fleet, Fang Han, the commander of the newly formed motorized infantry brigade, was also nervous and silent.

He knew very well that the military difficulty of the war they were about to launch was almost zero, but the purpose of the military was not to simply participate in Star Alliance military activities or to capture anything. Testing new weapons and new command systems, and even letting the regular army, which has not seen blood for decades, taste the taste of blood again, is the true meaning of it!

When he thought of this, Fang Han felt cold in his heart - this was a complete killing game - Army C would no longer be used to deter the enemy and maintain the country's economic construction, but would become truly fierce and deadly. war machine.

However, this is their fate.

"Brigadier Fang."

The call broke Fang Han's reverie. Fang Han immediately turned around and saw the commander of this military operation, Xiao Yu, the governor of Cuihaixing of the Iridium United Empire.

Bai Zhongqi prepared an army of up to 200,000 androids for this war, but due to Country C's concerns, it was Army C that took the lead. However, it is impossible for the command power to fall into the hands of soldiers of Country C who have no concept of the new war. Therefore, Army C has a learning attitude this time to observe how the Iridium soldiers organize and direct such a war.

Xiao Yu also has actual combat experience. Although he has never commanded a large-scale army with more than tens of thousands of people, for him, with the help of the Iridium system, there is not much difference between commanding tens of thousands of people and commanding millions of people. .

"Commander Xiao." Fang Han responded.

"We can start." Xiao Yu smiled.

For him, this is an excellent opportunity to refresh his resume. It was also due to the fact that Bai Zhongqi didn't have many planetary combat officers under his command. Xiao Yu was Bai Zhongqi's only option, so he was sent to command the war.

Xiao Yu didn't show off as usual in front of Fang Han. Xiao Yu now seemed quite helpful, approachable and friendly. He even explained to Fang Han: "Under the new war situation, because the command system can fully realize front-line vertical command from high to low, it actually reduces the necessity of grassroots command personnel. We are more What is needed are strong grassroots officers who can lead troops. As senior commanders, we can control the course of the war in real time and arrange troops thousands of kilometers away from the battlefield, or even on other planets."

Fang Han nodded, looking like he was being taught, and said, "This is really the same as a computer game."

Xiao Yu smiled and said: "Absolutely."

He turned his head and looked at the huge holographic sand table. He reached out and pointed at a unit in the sand table, which was the air cavalry battalion of Fang Han's mechanized infantry brigade. The newly formed medium-altitude cavalry battalion of the motorized infantry brigade is mainly equipped with Q-9 Panther armed aircraft. Because it uses an electric plasma turbofan engine, it can fly at low altitudes regardless of terrain. It is both an aerial tank and an aerial artillery unit. At the same time, it has completely replaced the original roles of attack aircraft and armed helicopters, and can perform anti-armor, reconnaissance, fire support, battlefield interdiction and other tasks.

Xiao Yu pressed forward the air cavalry troops and ordered: "Carry out an air attack on King Shang Duohan's capital. Cover it with indiscriminate firepower. First, hit two bases of ammunition."

Then he clicked on another unit, which was a motorized infantry battalion. Xiao Yu said, "The motorized infantry will cover the air cavalry units."

Fang Han immediately understood Xiao Yu's plan. This routine was actually similar to the Bu-tank collaboration in modern warfare. The air cavalry units performing strike missions may face enemy attacks. On the battlefield of Shang Duohan, the attack comes from the Star Warriors, so the air cavalry requires the cover of motorized infantry. Once there are star warriors on the ground to counterattack, the air cavalry and motorized infantry will focus their fire to destroy or capture those star warriors.

Even though he had a general understanding of how the entire command system worked, Fang Han was still amazed. The commander only needs to move units on the sand table and make orders, and the AI ​​will assist in directly conveying the orders to specific units. Grassroots units are also equipped with AI assistance and can quickly formulate strike and combat plans based on actual battlefield conditions.

The real-time actions of all units on the sandbox can be reflected. If the actions of any military unit do not meet the expectations of the senior commander, the senior commander can directly transcend the command and issue orders to the units to make adjustments. It's like microcontrolling in an RTS computer game.

This is true digital warfare. All combat nodes and command nodes have the ability to communicate information. Commanders can better understand the details of the battlefield and conduct command. Coupled with powerful AI assistance, the combat effectiveness of such an army is extremely terrifying.
