Chapter 354 Sky and Land
Chapter 354 Sky and Land
In this military exercise, Kang Chi applied for 10 types of equipment, including five types of Dreadnoughts, two types of Assaulters, Reaper Humanoid Mechas, Demolition Bugs, and Unmanned Armored Transport Vehicles. Excluding ammunition, the number of equipment that actually needs to be operated individually is as high as 695.
If drones are included, the number will directly exceed 10,000.
However, in the regulations of this military exercise, the attributes of small drones are listed as a special type of ammunition.
Because whether it is Kang Chi’s ‘Dreadnought-C1’ micro-drone launch robot or the Red Army’s ‘Hail’ vehicle-mounted cruise missile system, they can be regarded as a whole of equipment.
Micro-drones and cruise missiles are just the ammunition it launches.
In fact, whether it is more than 600 or tens of thousands,
For the Storm Battalion with only 500 people, it seems a bit too much.
In addition, some equipment is operated by two people, so the number of equipment is completely excessive.
However, since a budget of 2 billion has been given, Kang Chi must fill it up anyway.
The extra ones are regarded as reserve troops.
After all, in such a large-scale confrontation, Kang Chi cannot guarantee that his side can achieve zero combat losses.
Although his robots are powerful, they do not mean invincibility.
Due to the excessive equipment and limited number of people, Kang Chi dispatched 150 unmanned armored transport vehicles, which were full of various equipment and supplies.
So there are 150 soldiers of the Storm Battalion, and they are all armored transport vehicles at this time.
The rest of the people are driving relatively large dreadnoughts.
The group entered the exercise site in a mighty manner and began to carry out the initial strategic deployment.
A lot of surveillance cameras were installed in advance at the entire exercise site, and several drones were filming in the air. At the same time, there was action monitoring on each major equipment.
These shots were densely packed and projected onto the big screen in the general command room of the exercise. At this time, the picture that was enlarged was the marching picture of the Blue Army.
In fact, when they first learned that there was not even a real person on Kang Chi’s side, the leaders showed varying degrees of surprise.
It always feels…
It’s a bit unreliable.
Until now, when they saw with their own eyes that more than 200 robots escorted hundreds of transport vehicles and began to set off in an orderly manner, they still felt a little incredible.
“To be honest, this scene is really like a science fiction movie.”
”Well, science fiction is very science fiction, but there is no one, and it all depends on remote-controlled robots… I still feel a little uneasy in my heart.”
”It’s normal. I actually feel this way.”
”The main thing is that the things that kid has made are always too advanced, and it’s hard for people to adapt all of a sudden…”
”…”
Just as several elders were exchanging opinions, the picture on the big screen switched to the Red Army.
The entire big screen showed a huge convoy.
The various types of vehicles dispatched by the Red Army were no less than Kang Chi, with a total of 272 vehicles! Among them, 20 were unmanned armored vehicles and 72 were various types of launch vehicles.
The rest were traditional transport vehicles, most of which were loaded with various types of ammunition.
As Kang Chi guessed, their main equipment was a swarm of drones.
After all, this thing has been tested in actual combat on the battlefields in the north and the east, and naturally it has become the main research and development direction of various countries in the field of intelligent equipment.
In the 180 transport vehicles, they have 21,250 rotary-wing reconnaissance drones alone. Their offer for this thing is 6,000 yuan, and 21,250 drones are only 170 million.
In addition to cruise missiles and flying-wing suicide drones… The total number of equipment they can fly in the sky exceeds 50,000! ”Dominate the sky!”
This is the Red Army’s grand strategy.
In fact, both their strategy and the characteristics of their equipment are very suitable for the venue of this exercise.
Although there are lakes, grasslands, forests and towns here, the area of this terrain accounts for less than 10%, and the rest is all wilderness and desert. This kind of terrain with a panoramic view and very few shelters is very suitable for drone swarm operations.
On the other hand, Kang Chi’s side mainly relies on ground combat units, which means that every step they take,They may be discovered by the enemy immediately and then attacked by overwhelming drones.
The geographical disadvantage is still very large, so Kang Chi is actually under some pressure.
However, although there is pressure, it is not much.
Because he has anticipated the opponent’s main strength, he naturally made a bigger bet on air defense.
In addition, the performance of the equipment has greatly compensated for the geographical disadvantage.
Finally, the criterion for judging the victory or defeat of this exercise is the total points. There are three main ways to obtain points: destroy the enemy, complete optional tasks, and occupy designated locations.
As for the ability to occupy the ground, Kang Chi is obviously much stronger.
What kind of occupation ability can their drones have?
So they can definitely win, and the only difference in the result is how beautiful the win is.
The sphere of influence that the Blue Army initially defined was in the upper left corner of the map. There was a small lake here, and there was an industrial town on the lakeside. However, there was nothing in the town, just a simulation site for exercises.
Close to Town B was a high ground of more than 50 meters.
The entire high ground was high above, overlooking Town B in the northwest and the lake in the middle of the map in the southeast.
It was like a wall, standing in front of Town B.
Originally, this was a very important strategic location, but because the Red Army mainly relied on air power, this natural barrier did not add much to the Blue Army in this exercise.
And there was no cover on it. If the logistics did not keep up, it would be easy to be killed by concentrated fire.
In addition, the Blue Army’s ground combat power is off the charts, and the ground defense pressure is very small. Therefore, Dumont’s plan is to concentrate all equipment and supplies in Town B first, and after ensuring the safety of logistical supplies, he will directly launch an attack in two directions.
It is enough to leave a company of people in the hometown to defend it, and there is no need to send people to defend the high ground.
Even if the enemy sneaks up to the high ground and wants to look down from above, the attackers can quickly use the zipline to climb the wall to deal with them, without even taking a detour.
“Report, the Fifth Company has completed the defense of Town B!”
”Received, how are the Second and Third Companies doing?”
”The transfer and deployment of materials will be completed in ten minutes.”
”Received.” Dumont looked at the time again, “There are still 55 minutes before entering the second phase. Everyone, complete all deployments as soon as possible, and then stay on standby.”
After Dumont finished speaking, he communicated directly with Kang Chi in a single line: “I just received a task issued by the commander-in-chief.”
”What task?”
”I sent you the combat panel.”
As soon as Dumont finished speaking, a holographic panel appeared in front of Kang Chi.
[Optional task: One against a hundred! ]
[Task description: Use a single-soldier equipment to destroy enemy equipment that is 100 times more valuable than the equipment. ]
[Task reward: 1000 points. ]
