"When was the war example?" Shao Xianyong asked.
Li Zheng said: "Just think that I am a fiction. It may not exist in reality. One summer, late at night, in country W. A large drone flew silently into the border of country W, targeting the capital city L. This is the latest drone with a small fuselage and good stealth performance. In particular, the route and altitude were carefully calculated and planned. The drone arrived smoothly without any obstruction. Over the target.”
"After arriving in the sky above City L, the drone projected some bird-sized aircraft. These aircraft were guided by the coordinates of the special forces members who had already penetrated country W. They flew to some heavily guarded buildings at low altitude. Cruising and looking for targets, some of the bows were afraid of weak parts and used passages such as ventilation pipes or windows to enter the interior of the building..."
"Thousands of kilometers away, the M Country's Special Operations Command is brightly lit and busy. According to the information sent back by the satellite, the secret military operation code-named 'Clear Obstacles' is progressing basically smoothly. The tiny unmanned aerial vehicle carrying out the mission At this time, all the aircraft have arrived at the target location. Except for one important target that was not locked due to a temporary accident, the others have been identified. In order to prevent the operation from being exposed, the success rate has been obtained after simulation by the intelligence analysis department and computer system. More than 90% met the execution requirements. So the theater commander ordered immediate action after asking for instructions from the Supreme Commander. After inputting a line of instructions, the drones in country W quickly carried out suicide attacks after receiving the order, and installed The high-explosive bomb on the fuselage exploded violently when it hit the target."
Li Zheng became more and more excited as he talked.
Shao Xianyong listened with great interest, took the initiative to pour him a glass of water, and pushed it in front of Li Zheng.
"Don't be impatient, young man. Drink some water and speak slowly."
Li Zheng drank the water and continued: "Explosions were heard one after another in the ZT Mansion of W State, the residence of the Minister of GF, and the homes or offices of some important department officials. Large-scale drones have been monitoring the effects of the operation at an altitude of tens of kilometers. After the man and the machine collected enough data, they began to return quietly, and the members of the special forces who guided the small drones to carry out the attack had long since disappeared into the night and left Country W through special means."
"The entire L city entered a state of emergency in a short period of time, and the country fell into chaos. The crisis management team led by Deputy ZT declared a national state of emergency... Until the next day, I was confused and didn't know what happened. Only then did the people of country W gradually learn from the media that the ZT and GF ministers and several senior officials were assassinated last night. The people of country W were shocked at first, and then regained their composure. Because in the past year or so, Western media have been reporting on W There are negative news about relevant officials. I don’t say whether the content is true or false, but it is definitely shocking enough. It has caused some turmoil in country W. Demonstrations and confrontations occur from time to time, and the situation is unstable..."
"Afterwards, high-level officials said that although the citizens of Country W considered the method of the assassination unacceptable, they did not feel sorry for the dead because of the year-long impact of negative news reports. Some people even began to take to the streets to hold celebrations. .”
"So who is the real culprit? After investigation by the crisis management team, some fragmentary clues were released. Some fragments of the insignia of an extremist organization were found at the attack site, and through the wreckage of the micro-drone that had been blown to pieces and was difficult to recover, The parts used on the machine, and intelligence provided through a certain source channel showed that an organization had purchased a batch of similar parts in a certain place in the name of business last year... Once the news was announced, the finger was pointed at an extremist organization. Then extremist organizations came through channels and said that they had not done this. But because the power of public opinion was not in their hands, their voices were quickly drowned out by the mainstream Western media."
"However, at the same time, some serious military experts pointed out that this kind of clearing operation with strict planning, fast action and accurate intelligence is not something that an organization is capable of carrying out. Looking at the entire incident, it is actually similar to the fact that it has been secretly trying to intervene in the area. The affairs of Country W are related to a certain hegemonic country. Of course, Country M quickly came out to deny it and said that it did not do it."
Hearing this, Shao Xianyong smiled: "Interesting, I know who you are talking about."
Li Zheng said: "Chief, this is a fictitious combat example. I just made it up to illustrate the impact of drones and intelligent systems on special operations in the future."
Shao Xianyong picked up the tea cup and took a sip of tea. He looked at Li Zheng with great appreciation and said, "You continue."
Li Zheng followed the above example and continued: "Although Country W established an investigation team to conduct a vigorous investigation into the Qi attack incident, the thunder was loud and the rain was light, and it seemed that there was no result in dragging it. During this period , the deputy director wasted no time and announced the temporary duties of the deputy director in accordance with the law. The following year, when the general election began, as expected, the deputy director was elected with a high vote and became the new leader of country W. When he took office, the first The thing is to announce a visit to country M, announce to enhance cooperation between the two countries, accept assistance from country M, and say that it is the best partner and friend with country M. Country M greatly appreciated the statement of ZT of country W and added After a lot of noise from the media, the president of country W suddenly became a dazzling political star on the international stage."
"As time went by, the assassination of former ZT was gradually forgotten and became a mystery. It was not until three years later that a secret document was published on a decryption website and the truth of the matter was revealed."
"It turns out that Country M's hegemonism and perennial militarism have led to economic recession and severely weakened its influence in East Asia. At this time, Country E's influence in the region is growing, and the top leaders of Country W intend to negotiate with Country E. To cooperate to get rid of dependence on Country M, after a series of preparations, the top leaders of Country W prepared to collectively visit Country E in six months to sign a series of cooperation documents. After learning of this situation, Country M decided to use force to solve the problem. However, after repeated consideration, it was believed that launching a war would be too costly. If country W asked for help from country E at that time, country E might even intervene if country E intervened. After repeated consideration, experts from its Special Operations Staff put forward the following This special operations plan uses high-tech drones and intelligent control systems, combined with the infiltration mode of special forces members, to conduct a precise 'clearance operation' against the top leaders of Country W. Before this, it is supplemented by propaganda warfare and economic warfare. , military deterrence and other means to lay the groundwork, and after the early and perfect execution of the plan, the change of power within country W was achieved, and the deputy government was supported to come to power as a puppet to continue to achieve the purpose of controlling country W."
After telling the fabricated combat case in one breath, Li Zheng breathed a sigh of relief and picked up the tea cup again. This time, he drank all the tea in one breath.
"Yes." Shao Xianyong can probably taste what this fictional battle example is trying to express: "But I don't believe you made it up on the fly."
Li Zheng said frankly: "It's not true. In fact, I have been doing research on the future prospects of special operations. UAVs and intelligent combat systems are just one aspect. This time I was assigned to the UAV battalion by my brigade commander. At first, I I didn’t understand it a bit, but then I thought about it, it fits in with part of my research ideas on special operations, and maybe going there can confirm something.”
Shao Xianyong said: "What you just said is only a small part of the impact of drones and intelligent systems on the future of special operations. I have heard similar statements before. This is the impact on the style of operations, right?"
"Yes!" Li Zheng was a little excited. He and Shao Xianyong were able to chat together. They really had similar interests: "Chief, have you heard this statement before?"
Shao Xianyong said: "Yes, guess who said the same thing as you?"
Li Zheng was stunned, how could he guess? I am not a god.
Shao Xianyong is the commander of the war zone after all. He has a lot of senior advisers and think tanks around him, and the various analyzes he has heard are beyond his comparison.
"I have no idea."
Shao Xianyong said: "What a coincidence, it was the company commander you met shortly who proposed it."
"who?"
"Qi Sheng."
"Huh? Him?"
Li Zheng was stunned.
"Uncle, do you know Qi Sheng?"
"Why don't you know each other?" Shao Xianyong said: "Xiaoqian didn't tell you? That's his distant cousin, an expert in drones. He once wrote a book about the impact of artificial intelligence and drones on the military. Otherwise, this Why did the Second War Zone recruit him specially? It was also because your brigade commander was so good that he found Jian Sheng and hired him directly into his own brigade. But let me tell you, this kid Qi Sheng is arrogant and arrogant. Most people can't deal with him. I’m afraid your brigade commander will also have a headache when I come to your brigade.”
He paused for a moment and then said: "You went to his place to work with him this time. I think your brigade commander did it on purpose."
The two were chatting vigorously when a greeting came from the direction of the restaurant.
"Stop chatting. The food is on the table. Come over and eat and chat."
Shao Xianyong said: "Let's go and eat. In this family, your aunt is the leader and I am the soldier."
The two of them walked into the restaurant and sat down at the dining table.
Simple, six dishes and one soup.
Shao Xianyong thought for a moment and said, "Old lady, go get my bottle of wine."
Shao's mother was surprised: "You haven't drank for a long time. Are you in such a high mood today?"
Shao Xianyong said: "Well, I had a great chat with Li Zheng just now, so I had a couple of drinks with him."
The wine was brought quickly.
Li Zheng hurriedly took the initiative to pour wine for Shao Xianyong.
After pouring the wine, everyone waited for Shao Xianyong to use his chopsticks first.
Shao Xianyong picked up the wine glass first: "Li Zheng, let me give you a drink first. I just came back from the escort and I heard that my performance was quite good."
As he spoke, he turned to his wife and said, "This guy, a team of three people braved the war and ran hundreds of kilometers, went to Sana'a and evacuated more than 20 people. I have read the report sent by the fleet. He asked for credit and highly praised his performance of being indifferent to fame and fortune, and I am very satisfied."
Turning to Li Zheng, he said: "I have worked hard to escort the overseas Chinese for half a year and risked my life to evacuate overseas Chinese. Firstly, I have not given you any meritorious service. Secondly, I have not allowed you to wear a big red flower and come to the podium to speak as a representative. You have no complaints. This is good. Therefore, my glass of wine is to reward you. If you don’t take the initiative to make a request to me, I can’t chill the heart of a good officer. Li Zheng, tell me, do you want to make meritorious service or have any other requests? As long as you are here Within the scope of my ability and within the scope of compliance, I will help you solve it.”
"There's something..."
Li Zheng held the wine glass and hesitated for a moment.
Under the dinner table, Shao Xiaoqian's feet had already stepped on Li Zheng's feet, as if giving some kind of encouragement.
"Tell me! What are you doing so coquettishly? I despise this kind of man the most." Shao Xianyong said.
Li Zheng mustered up his courage, picked up the wine glass, and stood up: "Chief... No, Uncle Shao, I want to marry Xiaoqian. This is within your scope of authority. I ask for your permission!"
Asking for a monthly ticket! Asking for a monthly ticket!
