Xu Jianguo's words were like a blockbuster bomb, which once again caused a storm in the four people's already restless hearts. They all came out of the war, and countless war experiences made them understand how terrible the consequences of an ambush at night were. If what Xu Jianguo said was true, then for the current Longxia army, it was tantamount to a cheat.
"Jianguo, how many kilometers away can this thing detect enemy troops in advance? How far exactly?"
"The theoretical value I designed can reach five kilometers, but considering the impact of magnetic fields on radio waves, it can at least reach four kilometers."
"Oh my god, it can detect the enemy four kilometers in advance! This thing is much better than radar!"
"Radar can only detect large targets that reflect radar waves, but it's difficult to detect the human body!"
"Jianguo, can you try out your infrared thermal imaging function now?"
"Okay!"
After Xu Jianguo finished speaking, he pressed a button on the remote control. The television screen suddenly changed. The four of them, who had previously been clearly visible, suddenly transformed into a negative print, similar to an X-ray. On the black and white screen, the five figures, set against the darkness, shimmered like fireflies.
As Xu Jianguo walked around in the carriage, a ball of light on the TV also started to move.
"The images we're seeing now are captured by the infrared thermal imaging system. If we were in a jungle and these few bright spots suddenly appeared on the screen, they would definitely be objects with a temperature over 30 degrees Celsius—in other words, either animals or humans. With drones providing advance reconnaissance, our troops will reduce many unnecessary casualties in the future and may even be able to take advantage of the enemy's tactics and catch them off guard."
As he finished speaking, Su Dingshan clapped his hands vigorously and shouted "Good!" three times, while Wu Tianlong and the other two looked at the TV screen excitedly.
"Jianguo, don't wait any longer. I can't wait any longer. Let's get this drone into the mountains and see what it does!"
"Yes, even the best equipment must be tested in actual combat. Let's get started!"
Listening to Su Dingshan and Wu Tianlong's words, Xu Jianguo nodded, and without any hesitation, he directly controlled the drone to fly out of the truck and flew towards the mountains behind the 523 Institute.
The moment the plane flew out of the truck, he immediately turned off the infrared thermal imager, intending to test the effects of the night vision goggles and camera zoom first.
Looking at the picture on the TV screen that was as bright as day, the four of them couldn't help but look at each other, and they were extremely impressed by Xu Jianguo's wild imagination.
But the most important thing is that he not only dared to think, but also dared to do it, and he succeeded, which is extremely rare.
After collecting their thoughts, the four of them looked at the TV again. Soon, they found a figure appearing on the screen. Xu Jianguo also noticed this and immediately controlled the zoom function of the camera through the remote control to bring the distant picture closer.
"Hey, isn't this the company commander of the guard company just now?" Dong Jixiang said.
"Yes, it is indeed them!" Ma Guoliang nodded.
"The images taken by this electronic eye are really clear. Just based on this point, your research and development project this time, Jianguo, can be considered a success!" said Su Dingshan.
Xu Jianguo grinned, but did not say anything. Instead, he continued to stare at the TV screen.
After his tests, Xu Jianguo was very satisfied with the drone's night vision and zoom effects, which had met his design theoretical expectations.
Then, he turned to the four people and said, "Leaders, I will activate the infrared thermal imaging function next."
"Okay!" Su Dingshan said.
When the function was turned on, the picture effect immediately switched to infrared thermal imaging state, and then under Xu Jianguo's control, the drone began to scan the forest.
Soon, several spots of light appeared on the screen. Seeing this scene, Xu Jianguo smiled. He then switched the camera to night vision mode and controlled the drone to slowly approach the spots of light. Finally, it hovered two hundred meters above them.
As the camera zoomed in, eight soldiers from a squad of the reconnaissance company appeared on the screen.
At this time, the eight soldiers were hiding behind a protruding boulder. They were on a high ground, easy to defend and difficult to attack, and they could easily see the people coming up the mountain.
Under normal circumstances, no matter how powerful the soldiers of the guard company were, they would most likely be wiped out if they were caught off guard.
But now, with the intervention of drones, this situation has undergone earth-shaking changes. It can even be said that the offensive and defensive sides have switched.
After determining the positions of the eight soldiers, Xu Jianguo zoomed out and looked at the map placed on the wooden box. After putting down the remote control in his hand, he picked up the ruler and pencil, and in a short while he determined the positions of these people.
Then, he picked up the walkie-talkie beside him and told the company commander of the guard company the location of the eight people, and told him the terrain near the target and his suggestions.
After putting down the walkie-talkie, Xu Jianguo did not continue to control the drone to leave, but continued to hover there.
After waiting for about twenty minutes, more than twenty figures appeared on the TV screen and slowly moved towards the direction of the eight people. They were the soldiers of the guard company.
Moreover, these people did not choose the conventional route, but instead followed Xu Jianguo's suggestion and sneaked past the eight people from behind.
More than ten minutes later, the five people staring at the TV screen all smiled, and Ma Guoliang even raised his arms and waved his fist in the air, looking extremely excited.
At this moment, the voice of the guard company commander came from the intercom: "Report to Colonel Xu, the first wave of rats has been successfully captured, please give instructions!"
Xu Jianguo reached out to take the intercom, but unexpectedly, Ma Guoliang grabbed the intercom before him and said into it: "I am Ma Guoliang, stay where you are, remain silent, and wait for the next instruction!"
"Yes, Commander!"
