[Chapter 209] Support With the help of the virtual image to lure enemies and the cover and reinforcement of special smoke, Zheng Feng finally got rid of the sense of crisis, and just after Zheng Feng left the area not far away, the man who was captured
The captain of the garrison team controlled by the "Corrector" walked out of the shadow of a row of trees, raised his gun and aimed at the approaching road.
The "support" soldier flashed a faint blue light quickly, hitting the all-terrain unmanned vehicle that created the holographic image with one blow. The phantom of the exoskeleton armor shook a few times like a candle in the wind. Then it disappeared, leaving only the unmanned car parked motionless. Then the figure did not stay, and quietly disappeared into the shadows just now.
Although he took advantage of the opportunity he created to get rid of the sense of surveillance, Zheng Feng's actions became more covert. He did not focus on searching for traces of various people as before, but moved slowly close to the forest nearby. During this period, he The heat energy generated by the exoskeleton armor on the body is compressed in the cooling tank at the bottom of the foot armor. The coolant in it can accommodate extremely expanded heat energy. After the user ensures that there is no risk nearby, the system can measure one of the cells. The coolant assembly is dispensed from the heel in some sort of compressed container, ensuring that it is not exposed to the heat energy that escapes during the concealment process.
As for the location of the destination, Zheng Feng used his authority to retrieve the topographic map when he entered the airport area. Although it was impossible to mark the location of each outpost on it, it was not difficult for him. Considering the open terrain, wide signal reception range, and the inability to be completely exposed in the open area, Zheng Feng quickly established a target point on the map. After establishing the target, he quickly headed towards the preset location. During this period, in order to prevent Zhang Jin from making a wrong assessment of his current situation, Zheng Feng briefly communicated with the hover vehicle, and the content contained only one word: "Nothing".
After completing this simple report, Zheng Feng immediately turned off the communication unit to prevent his signal from being stolen and in turn confirm his position. This is very important for the current situation.
He needs to pay special attention during the "stealth" process, otherwise his destination will most likely become his end point, and it will most likely be in the sense of life. After keeping vigilant and continuing to travel for a certain distance, Zheng Feng finally saw When he arrived at a light green military building, although there was a mimic system on the surface of the communication tower, he was still sure that this was the first outpost set up by the Second Airborne Corps.
To be on the safe side, Zheng Feng first made a simple detour. On the one hand, he wanted to determine whether there were armored units nearby that he could not currently deal with. On the other hand, he wanted to determine whether there were traces of battles near the outpost. If there were any combat units, Zheng Feng's action plan needs to include unity and rescue of possible friendly prisoners of war. This kind of rescue is not only to increase Zheng Feng's combat capabilities, but also to prevent those who would rather fight for their beliefs. The soldiers who died were heartbroken.
He knew very well what it meant to wait in despair and helplessness. The imprints Zheng Feng left in the dark years before he came to Ganymede to join the army were only forgotten by the years on the surface of his body, but in In his heart, he could never forget the memory that the desperate imprisonment brought to him, not to mention,
One of the traditions of the "Tiger Guard" is to never give up on one's comrades until the last moment, especially those who have the same will as oneself. After all, on the battlefield where life is so fragile, what can bring one's life is not the so-called
"Gods" are the comrades and companions who came to take him away. Only when you go to the battlefield will you know that a person will die if he is slashed with a knife. Even in the blood-stamped world, exoskeleton armor is not a panacea. It only relatively improves the chance of survival as a soldier. And if you don’t kill me, I will Just kill you, this timeless truth on the battlefield.
When bombs explode around him, when his comrades are headshot next to him, or when the fighting begins, a soldier will not remember why he joined the war, for justice, for truth or for his motherland. These are all things that should be thought about after the battle. Yes, the biggest motivation for them to fight is actually: killing each other to go home alive, avenging their dead comrades, etc.
But no matter what, as long as these soldiers do not compromise with the enemy and are still determined to rush forward and fight the enemy despite being hindered by various thoughts in their hearts, then in Zheng Feng's eyes, they are comrades worthy of his help, not those who Survival is a burden. Although survival is human instinct, which is understandable, on a life-and-death battlefield, every person who escapes is likely to cause a teammate to fall to the ground without protection... ......... As Zheng Feng quickly explored around the outpost, he got some good news and some bad news for him. The good news was that he did not find any armored units around. , exoskeleton armor does not represent a heavy armor unit in the true sense, although according to today's standards, the powerful mobility and defense of exoskeleton armor can make it impossible for tanks to hit or penetrate, and a set of non-armored confrontation Category
With sufficient equipment, "amateur" exoskeleton armor can easily and slowly harvest an armored company of tanks and infantry in the world.
Although conventional exoskeleton armor is only a reduced version of power armor in terms of propulsion and endurance, its propulsion performance and added mobility can completely defeat an army. It is the most common type of power armor installed by the Ganymede military in the Blood Seal world. , that is, for the propulsion system of the Rong Falcon type power armor, its rated thrust is enough to enable the body to continuously accelerate at 95~125m\/s2, and ultimately maintain a super high speed of 0.85~1.2 Mach. The body is approximately perpendicular to the coronal plane of the human body. The acceleration direction, advanced anti-load system and protective measures enable the wearer to withstand such acceleration for a longer period of time and maintain normal body functions.
The designer chose this way of setting up the propulsion components by rotating the body to adjust the thrust for deceleration, not only for the sake of unified system design and structural arrangement, but also because the human body has a stronger load-bearing capacity when it is subjected to overload from front to back, limiting the The acceleration time can be increased to 135~165m/s2; if the wearer's endurance is ignored, the body function and operating status are adjusted and the propulsion system is operated at full power, it can be further increased to 235~265m/s2 and 1.35~1.85 Mach, but at the same time it will also bring corresponding consumption, instability and damage to the body.
In addition, the weapon module of the power armor has its own attack lock, which means that it can accurately strike the target during this high-speed travel. Compared with perspective, penetration and self-aiming, for the modern military system It's an absolute nightmare, even if the exoskeleton armor is a castrated version, or so-called
"SE Youth Vitality Edition" has deficiencies in suppression effect, mobility and weapon types, and the former is designed as a barrier to war advancement. Compared with the exoskeleton armor, which has shrunk in size a lot, these performance losses There is nothing we can do.
But even the worn version has only changed from a dragon to a giant for the current troops, and it is still the hard and fast mystical stone giant, and this is just an ordinary field-type exoskeleton armor, not to mention It specializes in armor-piercing special exoskeletons. The latter can easily take down dozens of conventional tanks without being damaged. It may lack a range of attack methods when dealing with infantry, but its powerful close combat knife set can defeat any approaching creature. Or the armor turns to pieces.
Zheng Feng was wearing
"Tiger Guard" special model
The "stealth" exoskeleton armor is equipped with an enhanced version of the close combat knife set, that is, the ultrasonic cutting function of the knife system is added. This system, on the premise of ensuring the overall structural strength, installs an ultrasonic generator and a changer in the machine parts. Ultrasonic cutting components such as transducers and horns are used. This subsystem allows the machine body to load and focus ultrasonic waves on the blade, and then use its high frequency to drive the blade to vibrate, concentrate the energy to melt the cutting target, seal the cutting part, and at the same time, through high-frequency vibration along the direction of the blade. The high-frequency vibration repeatedly collides and cuts with it, and then the molecular structure inside the material is opened by the applied high-frequency vibration energy.
Next, the material strength will be weakened in a targeted manner, the target will be continuously broken, and the pressure required for cutting will be reduced to highly enhance the cutting ability and cutting speed of the blade, reduce the load on the blade, and allow the blade to be better cooled during the cutting process. , avoid dulling of the blade and extend its service life, so that it can accurately cut the target with minimal resistance.
To put it simply, armor made of the most advanced materials and processes in the world is no different from a piece of tofu in front of it. It can easily cut a gap without any effort. Of course, everything mentioned before is just for dealing with the current world. After all, exoskeleton armor and even power armor are too overwhelming at the technical level, and there is a real technological gap. But if it is an armored unit of the same era in the Blood Seal World, the result will be completely different.
As we all know, the development of tanks is logical. At the same technical level, if you want to install a larger-caliber artillery, you still need to increase the weight. If you cannot increase the weight for other reasons, you can only sacrifice it. Other properties.
What's more, increasing the caliber will also bring about a series of problems including reduced ammunition preparation, passability, logistical supplies, costs, etc....... As far as the engagement distance of armored units is concerned, there are three levels. One is Distributed strike, over-the-horizon combat, tank artillery cannons fire ordinary artillery shells\/missiles\guided artillery shells\/cruise bombs. They can be used as the frontline node to directly obey the unified firepower deployment of distributed strikes, instead of all tanks having to direct When aiming within the visual range, the tank helps the system to hit, and the system also helps the tank to hit and clear the way for the tank. The tank drone's cruise missile reconnaissance is part of the system, and the system's reconnaissance is also passed to the tank. The second layer is to preview before entering the visual range. Preemptively strike against the enemy, or even fire telescopic cannons - the so-called look ahead. The third level is electronic radar, strong situational awareness, and rapid defensive counterattack to correct leaks. 1 and 2 are the main combat modes.
A wiser idea is to break away from the internal roll of armored shells in this era of increasingly high-volume resistance against armored shells, and retain basic anti-armor capabilities by not continuing to increase the caliber of artillery or, more radically, using smaller caliber artillery. In this case, the saved weight can be used to enhance protection, mobility and other aspects, exchanging anti-armor capabilities for the tank's stronger functionality.
Specifically, we are working hard in three aspects. First, distributed operations, using drones/cruise bombs/unmanned combat vehicles to detect first and strike first. At this time, if the enemy attacks cheap drones\/ If the loitering missile or unmanned vehicle exposes its position, it can first send an artillery missile to the enemy into the sky. The second is strong situational awareness + defensive counterattack within the visual range. Peripheral radar and photoelectric can quickly locate the exposed position within the visual range. Targets or ammunition, so as to quickly locate the enemy and share the enemy's location information to form a quick counterattack, instead of being thrown into chaos as soon as it is attacked and paying a considerable price to figure out the enemy's position. By then, the enemy has even evacuated. Of course, this This mode still requires a very powerful active and passive defense system, because there is no guarantee that the enemy can be destroyed outside the visual range, and the defense capability is still important. The third is to rely on unmanned turrets to reduce the weight and reduce the size of the turret, thereby allowing more space and The weight is given to defense, maneuverability, and situational awareness components. So far, the weight savings of unmanned turrets can further improve the anti-armor capability. The protection is mainly the front hard defense of the car body + active defense system. The weight of the turret's main armor can be Save money for heavier artillery and frontal armor of the car body, and the armor penetration and resistance to penetration will be improved by at least 200-300mm on the current basis.
Even the turret can be quickly replaced by modular hoisting due to its reduced weight to achieve rapid maintenance. In other aspects, as mentioned before, direct control by the tank crew is more efficient than sharing by other units. First-line units have their own reconnaissance needs. , in complex/high-risk situations, the frontline units should directly drive the frontline unmanned units. Of course, other units can cooperate with the tanks, but the control may not be in the hands of the tanks, and they may not be able to reach places that tank members think are suspicious. Go ahead, it’s still the same sentence - distributed operations are never too big for too many units....... In the Blood Seal world, Xia Kingdom’s most outstanding thing is systematic warfare, and Ganymede also inherits it. this point
"Traditional", but this does not mean that the tank itself needs to become a system, but that it should be integrated into the system. It is not like a certain KF-51 that forcibly piles high-tech equipment on the tank at the expense of other performance. Tanks on the battlefield are not Fighting alone.
Tanks do not need to carry cruise missiles, because there are special cruise missile launchers in the rear, and tanks do not need to carry drones with too long range, because tanks do not need to undertake the tasks of the original battalion-level or even brigade-level reconnaissance forces, only It is enough to achieve strong situation awareness within the tank's own combat range. Just like the Navy's cEc system engagement system, the tank can fully accept situation awareness information from other units without the need to forcibly pile up technical equipment to take over tasks that do not originally belong to it. .
Ganymede's armored units are never grouped by single digits, but are calculated as a group of at least four armored vehicles with different functions. The most important of them are four parts: perception and reconnaissance part; defense and counterattack part. ; Identification and attack part; cover and guidance support strike part. Different parts are responsible for specialized armor units. That is to say, when a war encounters an armored squad, compared to encountering a condensed version of the armored cluster, the iron barrel With the same defense and strong strike efficiency, even if the power mecha is used, it is impossible to determine the winner in a short time.
Among them, what scares Zheng Feng the most is naturally the covering and guidance support strike part. On the Ganymede colonial satellite, it is a local operation. In many cases, if an enemy unit is discovered, it is not even necessary to open fire by oneself. You only need to let the corresponding support and guidance unit By reporting the number, strength and value of the enemy, the fleet in the satellite orbit will carry out ground or air strikes with astonishing efficiency. Zheng Feng is not sure whether the interference band includes the military band for calling for strike support. If the fleet does not After receiving the news of the defection of this armored team, we carried out artillery support according to the procedure.
Then Zheng Feng really wants to
"Returning to dust", the large-caliber plasma cannon is enough to accurately destroy any living target within the range. Even the seemingly very thick outpost barrier in front of us is just a matter of increasing the density of naval gun support. It is impossible to become a so-called permanent fortress, and the absence of an armored combat team means that Zheng Feng does not have to worry about risks that he cannot resist and avoid. As long as it is not an attack that will kill him with one hit, Zheng Feng will believe in himself. You can always find a way to evacuate. After all, many times, the so-called despair comes from giving up the will to persevere. Unless it is to overcome ordinary disadvantages, there are always opportunities. Zheng Feng firmly believes in this... .......In a previous battle, Zheng Feng's unit performed a secret mission on a colonial satellite under the control of the Interstellar Federation. At that time, he was just a member of the team. An ordinary infantryman did not have the authority or qualification to assemble a closed exoskeleton armor. Unfortunately, after an attack was thwarted, he was hit by a stray bullet and lost consciousness in an instant. When he woke up, he found himself In the interrogation room of that facility, during the endless torture and interrogation, his will was tortured to the brink of collapse, but Zheng Feng never gave up the hope in his heart.
After the enemy used various training methods and saw that they were of little value, they slowly relaxed their supervision of Zheng Feng and prepared to change his focus from individual supervision in the facility to centralized supervision, which is the so-called
"Relief for work", during the preparation for the escort, Zheng Feng communicated in advance with other people captured by the Interstellar Federation from various colonies and planets, and finally led dozens of people to escape from the prison where they were held, and after seizing After obtaining some confidential documents in the facility, he forcibly drove a shuttle in the facility and began to escape.
But the difficulty of openly escaping from the control area of the Interstellar Federation can be imagined. Zheng Feng is not a superman. Most of his fellow travelers are scientific researchers. He can persuade them to take weapons and a few prisoners including himself. It was a good thing that the soldiers rushed out, let alone allowed them to fight against the pursuers. But at this time of despair, Zheng Feng, with the mentality of treating a dead horse as a living horse doctor, followed the instructions of his unit in the previous mission. He made a call on the authorized communication band, but he was originally frustrated and heard a response.
It turned out that after the failure of that operation, Ganymede stopped investing in combat troops, and instead turned to infiltration in the hope of rescuing those captured comrades. Ganymede's attack on the former Xia army
The concept of "never abandon, don't give up" has been implemented very deeply. Of course, a large part of this is because Feng Jitong, as the former chief of staff of Xia Kingdom's star area, knows very well why Xia Kingdom's troops are far more cohesive than other countries. With the support and coordination from the three parties, some of Zheng Feng's people successfully returned to the Ganymede colonial satellite through special channels through the golden cicada's escape method.
It was because of this contribution and ability that Zheng Feng was valued by relevant parties, and step by step he became directly subordinate to Fleet Commander-in-Chief You Chengwang.
A member of the "Tiger Guard" special operations team, in many subsequent operations, he relied on his tenacity to survive one difficulty after another............. Of course, it was good news for Zheng Feng that he did not encounter an armored combat team. The bad news was that he did not find any traces of battle. There were no traces of weapons on the main body of the post, and there were no traces of weapons on the ground caused by laser weapons.
"Carbonization phenomenon", there are no traces of electromagnetic ammunition penetration in the surrounding trees. It is naturally very difficult to observe these with human eyes at night, but Zheng Feng can quickly and efficiently search for similar things with the scanning terminal and analysis system of his armored helmet. traces of battle.
But the more he checked, the more surprised he became. If this post was really destroyed without a single shot,
"Capture", either all the garrison personnel had betrayed collectively, or those enemies suspected of being the Oneness Cult had adopted a very powerful and strange offensive, leaving the soldiers unable to resist even within the thick protective barriers of the outpost. However, there are big loopholes in both speculations. The former is not common in a whole team. Ganymede has made considerable improvements in terms of treatment and troop scope. As far as Zheng Feng knows so far, Judging from the conditions and treatment of the troops of the Interstellar Federation, they are completely different.
Ganymede really treats the grassroots soldiers as human beings, and they are people with dignity. The soldiers on the Interstellar Federation are completely hanging on the line of hunger.
"Livestock", Zheng Feng has always wondered before why there is such a big gap between the Interstellar Federation and Ganymede, and why the already bloated and decayed Interstellar Federation did not suffer the consequences of this and collapse?
