It was because they could not consider anything else that they did not realize that the coordinates Lin Hai gave to each gun were exactly the positions with the largest deflection angles from their test firing points.
Sure enough, with only one soldier, it was extremely difficult to move the nearly 5-ton howitzer even with the use of auxiliary tools. If the robots produced by the Empire were not strong enough, more than half of the howitzer would probably be scrapped just by turning it.
"That won't do."
Lin Hai's expression looked regretful.
"If the enemy really comes to attack, we can't expect them to rush in only from the direction our guns are pointing, right? The cannons have to turn, and now ten minutes have passed, and not a single cannon has successfully turned."
Lin Hai said to LKN93 anxiously, "See, this is the problem. It's been discovered. I've always said that exercises aren't just acting; they must be close to actual combat! You see, as long as we start from actual combat, all kinds of problems will be exposed."
"Inspector, we lack..."
LKN93 tried to explain.
But Lin Hai, who had already grasped the evidence, refused to give in. "I know. We lack resources, organic code, and everything else, right?"
"But why does the Empire need you here? Isn't it because they want you to solve the problem? Otherwise, the central processor can just command these robots directly. Why does it need you?"
"LKN93, you need to demonstrate your worth. As the Empire's most loyal civil servants, it is our duty to solve problems for the Empire."
“If there are problems, we have to solve them. If there are no problems, we will create them and solve them!”
Lin Hai said righteously.
"If resources are insufficient, then we should make the best use of them! Look at the natives in our sector, they're still a group of natives holding swords and spears. Once the shells explode, they won't just be terrified, they might even worship us as gods! To them, this is an incomprehensible power! But there's a prerequisite here, that is, the shells will explode next to them, otherwise they'll probably just think it's thunder!"
Lin Hai said with a serious expression.
"Your concerns are very reasonable, but we are unable to gather more resources right now, Inspector."
LKN93 showed a helpless expression.
"Well, let me think about it. Let's just watch the drill first... well, no more waiting. Let's have all the soldiers operate simultaneously. If we keep watching them one by one, it'll take forever."
About half an hour later, a cannon finally roared.
Lin Hai discovered that the cannon that had just been successfully fired had shifted its position due to the recoil, and the only artillery semi-intelligent robot had to find a way to move the cannon again in order to complete the "rapid firing". It seemed that he would not be able to fire again for at least twenty minutes or half an hour.
Lin Hai nodded and said to himself, "He's the best one and works very hard. Let me talk to him."
LKN93 was bewildered. "Inspector, this semi-intelligent robot can only answer simple questions programmed into your computer. It's similar to a basic voice assistant. I'm afraid it won't be able to communicate with you logically."
"It's okay. Excellent soldiers need encouragement. This has nothing to do with whether or not he can communicate with me. Some human soldiers lose their ability to express themselves after being injured. As leaders, do we not care about them?"
LKN93 felt that what Lin Hai said made no sense. Human soldiers had lost the ability to express themselves, but they could understand what you were saying. There was nothing wrong with you showing some concern and putting on a show. These semi-intelligent soldiers simply couldn't understand what you were saying, and you were the only human being here. Why were you putting on a show?
Seeing LKN93's doubts, Lin Hai smiled and said:
"Wait, I'll record my visit to the outstanding soldiers in detail in the log. Once I contact the Imperial Management Center, I'll upload it as soon as possible."
Lin Hai patted LKN93's shoulder again and said earnestly, "If you want to be a good living being, you still have a long way to go."
The semi-intelligent robot with a metal skeleton and artificial skin soon came to report. Lin Hai smiled and spoke in a kind tone. He walked up to him, patted his shoulder, and began to ask about his well-being.
However, these tactics were incomprehensible not only to semi-intelligent robots but even to LKN93. Just like he couldn't understand Lin Hai's constant inquiries about the year of birth and factory location of the robot, whether he had any semi-intelligent robots he liked, whether he had any preferred parts models, and whether he wanted them to be recycled or sold cheaply as mining robots after they were scrapped.
The only message the semi-intelligent robot could reply was: "I am a semi-intelligent artillery robot model LPB25, number 4444, and can operate..."
"Okay, okay, you don't have to go into so much detail. You can even operate a plasma cannon, but I don't have any weapons like that here, do I?"
Lin Hai waved his hand to stop him, then continued with a very warm smile and said:
"Your number is unique, which is great. But back home, having all fours isn't very inspiring. Luck is very important for a soldier. So, I'll give you a name that's pronounced the same: Shishi Shishi. I hope it brings you good luck."
After LKN93 renamed the robot, Shishi Shiji, who had no idea what was happening, left the safe zone. LKN93, who saw what was happening but had no idea what to do, asked:
