Chapter 712: Long-range Attack to Avoid Casualties



Commander Cao was a little excited again and said to his subordinates:

"Alright, alright, this distance can completely replace our scouts. However, spotting the enemy is only the first step. How to eliminate the enemy in complex environments like mountain forests is also a difficult problem. Everyone should not take it lightly."

Large-scale artillery fire coverage is often used when the enemy is concentrated.

The sound of a cannon is worth a fortune. Wars are fought with money. If a small group of enemies appears, the cannon will not be able to kill them.

In this regard, the vast plains or grasslands in the north are suitable for artillery warfare. For example, General Zhang from Shandong, people wrote poems about him: Fire the cannons and blow his mother up, and return home with power throughout the country.

What should the Yunnan-Nan border do at this time? They can only face each other head-on, requiring both sides to engage in hand-to-hand combat.

Bullets are ruthless. They can kill the enemy, but they can also kill our soldiers.

When you think about the huge casualties we suffered during our subsequent self-defense counterattack, you will realize that fighting on the southern border was too hard, too dangerous, and too difficult.

Lin Sanqi also thought of this problem, and said with a smile:

"Don't worry, Lao Cao. Drones aren't just for reconnaissance; they can also destroy the enemy. It's getting dark soon. Let's have a picnic first. Once it's dark, I'll show you what modern warfare is all about."

Commander Cao's face was full of question marks, and he said thoughtfully:

"Wait, let me think about this. Are you planning to use this drone to kill the enemy after discovering them? Isn't that a bit too expensive? I don't know how much your drone costs, but it looks like it's not cheap.

You know our country's financial strength. Even if you have a good product, we can't afford it. If a drone like this were really deployed by the military, wouldn't it be treated like a treasure? How could it possibly be used in a suicide attack?"

Captain Xue also shook his head and said:

"The key is that even if a drone crashes, at most it will kill one enemy. The cost-effectiveness is too low and it's completely uneconomical."

Lin Sanqi was speechless and said with a wry smile:

"What are you thinking? I'm a drone, not some ordinary Zero. I'm certainly not going to do a kamikaze attack or a suicide attack. A few monkeys from the south wouldn't deserve that kind of treatment."

Yes, in Lin Sanqi's opinion, whether a suicide attack is worth it also depends on whether it is worth it.

Commander Cao looked at the drone that had returned, looked it up and down for a long time, and touched his chin for a long time, but he still couldn't figure out how to fight?

At this time, the logistics system had already come up with large iron buckets. Lin Sanqi said politely:

"Come on, let's have dinner casually. This bucket has pork stewed with vermicelli, this bucket has scrambled eggs with tomatoes, and this bucket has rice. Everyone, just help yourself. I apologize for the poor hospitality."

Commander Cao was speechless again. He opened the lid and the aroma filled his nose.

It was said to be pork stewed with vermicelli, and I thought there would only be vermicelli but no pork, but it turned out that the bucket was filled with greasy and tempting pork, which made people drool just by looking at it.

"Comrade Sanqi, this is what you mean by eating whatever you want? My God, we don't even get this kind of food during the Spring Festival in our army."

Lin Sanqi waved his hand casually:

"This is really a casual meal. Our canteen standard is two meat dishes and two vegetable dishes. This is not the wild, we got it from the railway engineering canteen, there is only one meat dish and one vegetable dish. I'm sorry for letting everyone down."

Commander Cao was very puzzled: "No, these eggs are considered vegetarian?"

Lin Sanqi blinked. "What else? There's no blood, no slaughter, so how can it be considered a meat dish?"

Commander Cao was speechless:

"Okay, okay, so this is how you local rich people in Bao'an County eat, right? I don't want to be a shitty army commander anymore. I'll just retire and come to Bao'an County to be a security guard."

Lin Sanqi smiled. "That's great! I'll prepare warships and weapons for you. Do you have the confidence to take the island?"

Everyone chuckled, and then everyone took their bowls and started eating with big mouthfuls.

Guests from Yunnan only eat meat, while the staff from Bao'an County just want to eat some vermicelli.

I'm really tired of eating meat. I need to lose weight...

After Lin Sanqi finished his meal, he called over Platoon Leader Yu, who had just acted as the hidden "enemy".

"Xiao Yu, I have a task for you. I've had a group of training models brought in. Place them anywhere in the mountains and stick these heat pads on them."

Platoon Leader Yu took the hot pack and was a little puzzled:

"Officer Si Ling, what is this heat pad for? How do I apply it?"

Lin Sanqi took out a piece of paper, tore off the sticker, and immediately stuck it on Platoon Leader Yu's stomach:

"Just put it on like this. How about it? Do you feel it getting warmer? This thing is especially good to use in winter. Of course, you can also use it to warm your uterus when you have your period."

Platoon Leader Yu blushed upon hearing this and muttered softly:

"Commander, you are bullying me. I am obviously a man, how can I have a cold uterus?"

Lin Sanqi chuckled and gave him a push, "Go ahead, model, place it wherever you want, and try to imitate how you usually hide."

Platoon Leader Yu saluted and said, "Yes, I will complete the mission."

As night slowly fell, everything around became dark, leaving only the moonlight in the sky.

Although it’s not pitch dark, at least in an era without light pollution, the “enemy” that cannot be found during the day is even more difficult to find at night.

During dinner, Lin Sanqi showed Captain Xue how to operate a drone.

This thing will be used as a toy by children in a few decades. It is not difficult to operate, and Captain Xue got the hang of it quickly.

As the drone slowly took off and turned on the infrared thermal imaging mode, the "enemies" hiding in the mountains and forests were displayed on the screen.

Lin Sanqi had already assembled two medium-sized drones and was installing an automatic rifle on them. A grenade was installed on another drone.

"Commander Cao, and everyone, please pay attention. We are simulating a dark night environment. If we can find the enemy in the dark, then it will be even easier during the day, right?

Commander Cao just said that we have discovered the enemy, but how to eliminate the enemy is a difficult problem. We have no choice but to let our soldiers take risks, take up weapons, and go to the front line of combat.

Because the enemy is in the dark and we are in the light, in such field annihilation battles, the attackers often suffer the most. The defenders, on the other hand, will find cover early, adjust their shooting angles, and begin to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out.

Commander Cao and the other officers nodded slightly.

Drones can only tell us where the enemy is, but they cannot tell our soldiers how to fight or how to take cover.

Because the troops at that time were not equipped with smart helmets or individual mission radios, they had no way to communicate with the command center in real time and had to rely on themselves for everything.

After Lin Sanqi finished speaking, a drone equipped with an automatic rifle began to take off.

Commander Cao had already guessed something, and at this moment his eyes were extremely excited, wanting to see the next magical scene.

Lin Sanqi's second drone arrived next to the first reconnaissance drone.

There is also infrared thermal imaging on Lin Sanqi's operating screen, so he can also see the enemy.

"Everyone, we've spotted the enemy, and the drone's gun is automatically aimed at them. I'm ready to destroy them. Those with children, hold on tight."

Lin Sanqi pressed a button on the operating handle, and the drone received the command, and the barrel instantly burst into a clicking sound.

In the dark night, the sound of gunfire echoed far and wide in the valley, loud and intense.

Fortunately, the surrounding railway engineers and garrisons were informed in advance, but even so, countless railway engineers who heard the gunshots at the foot of the mountain came out of their tents and looked towards Wutong Mountain in the north.

Everyone was excited.

These railway engineers were originally active-duty troops, and eventually semi-demobilized to become railway soldiers. Therefore, this group of people have all fought in battles, used guns and killed enemies, and are naturally sensitive to gunshots.

If the enemy really attacks, as long as Lin Sanqi distributes weapons, 30,000 railway soldiers can instantly form a reinforced division, which is more than enough to capture a colony.

After the machine gun fire, Commander Cao and several others stood up and quickly ran towards the model 200 meters away.

When everyone arrived, they found that the model, who was originally tied to a tree trunk, was beaten to pieces all over. Even the tree, which was as big as a bowl, was broken and fell across the road.

General Cao shouted, "Great, great!"

At this time, Lin Sanqi took the operating handle and took off the second drone.

"Lao Cao, just now we were shooting with guns. Now I'm going to show you another way for drones to attack. Watch this."

The drone flew over another model, and then with a light click of a button, the grenade on the drone fell straight down.

As soon as it hit the model, it exploded instantly.

The explosive power of a grenade is far less than that of a thermobaric bomb, but even so, it is still easy to kill a few enemies.

When Commander Cao saw the actual combat results, he trembled all over:

"High-tech! So this is what we call high-tech! With drones like these, the paradigm of modern warfare will be completely changed. If tens of thousands of drones were deployed simultaneously, what enemy could possibly withstand them? It's incredible!" (End of this chapter)
