In fact, as Man Guangzhi said, to realize the full application of laser weapons, not only China, but the world still has a long way to go. The realization of preliminary laser anti-missile is only the first step, and subsequent high-power,

How to realize miniaturized laser exciters, how to reduce costs, and how to optimize and build application platforms are all difficult to solve problems.

However, the meal must be eaten one bite at a time, and the road must be walked step by step. In this regard, this rabbit has always been very planned.

But having said that, Ye Zhou is very curious about how Man Guangzhi will use this laser weapon that he can virtualize at will in the subsequent confrontation between the red and blue forces. Maybe he will arrange for the director to directly use the non-existent laser weapon.

Destroy all the important targets of the Red Army?

Man Guangzhi did not answer Ye Zhou's question, but just told him that if there was a chance in the future, he could be invited to participate in an exercise in person.

Faced with such an invitation, Ye Zhou naturally accepted it happily - of course he didn't want to see the Blue Army beat up the Blue Army in the central theater and capture Man Guangzhi alive, but mainly he wanted to see the application of the new equipment.

Absolutely no bad intentions at all.

After a few brief chats, Ye Zhou was about to board the plane and leave, but just a second before Liu Yudong and Man Guangzhi were about to send him on the plane, Ye Zhou and Man Guangzhi received calls at the same time.

The information the two got from the phone was exactly the same.

A certain special forces unit from the U.S. side achieved important results in Africa, annihilating a KBFZ training base in Juba, and destroying an entire industrial chain involving drugs, human trafficking, and illegal gun smuggling.

This in itself is news that everyone likes to hear. After all, no matter how inconsistent with the ugly country, it is always everyone's common expectation to fight against atrocities against humanity - KBZY in Juba has been punished countless times, and violent crimes in northern Myanmar have

The gangster's madness was simply not enough to see in front of them.

In the early days of the rise of the Internet, there were a large number of beheading and torture videos circulating online, all coming from that barbaric corner.

Therefore, the international community has generally given positive comments to this news, and China is no exception.

However, there are indeed some key points in this news that have attracted the attention of the officials. The most important point is that this special force is equipped with a practical mechanical exoskeleton.

Ye Zhou and Man Guangzhi looked at each other, and they walked down the ramp of the plane in tacit agreement, and then walked directly towards the control room.

"Comrade Ye, you are more involved in the mechanical exoskeleton project. I will repeat to you what I need to do next. Please listen carefully."

"First, we must try to judge the practicality standards of the other party's mechanical exoskeleton and evaluate the performance difference with the exoskeleton we are currently using."

"Second, judge the opponent's control method, energy life, bone flexibility and other technical indicators to provide us with a preliminary judgment."

"Third, we summarize the technical indicators that the other party is ahead of us and put forward improvement suggestions and development plans."

"I know it will be difficult to judge just from the next video, but this is our only source of information. If the other party continues to release public information in the future, we will need your further support."

"I see."

After entering into the serious topic, both Man Guangzhi and Ye Zhou's temperament has undergone earth-shaking changes. In the anti-missile test just now, Man Guangzhi still had an expression of indifference, but now, he

The look of worry can clearly be seen on his face.

This is the basic quality of a soldier.

As a top commander who masters the most cutting-edge technology and command strategies, he knows better than anyone the changes that a practical mechanical exoskeleton can bring to the battlefield, and this change first occurs to the opponent, indicating that they are far away from large-scale

Spreading out is only one step away.

However, our own research and development of mechanical exoskeletons has actually just left the laboratory, and even the neural control system has not yet been officially applied.

This is a huge gap.

This gap may not lead to serious consequences immediately, but for a soldier, there is only one sentence buried deep in their hearts that can never be erased:

If you fall behind, you will be beaten.

The two walked into the command room. Liu Yudong had already left because he had nothing to do with this project. Man Guangzhi logged in to his authorized account and received the video sent by his superior.

This is a video shot from a first-person perspective. The equipment should be the recording system provided by the opponent's soldiers.

Judging from the picture, the video was shot in a desert in North Africa. The team and the photographer in the video totaled 6 people, each of whom was wearing a high-tech, armor-covered mechanical exoskeleton.

Judging from their equipment, each soldier carried a primary and secondary weapon. Based on the combat configuration, Ye Zhou could roughly tell that this 6-man team was divided into a blaster, a sniper, a communications trooper, and two assaulters.

The soldier in the perspective is obviously a machine gunner, because he is holding an M249 squad machine gun.

The video was shot at night and the light was very dark, but everyone in this team was equipped with high-power night vision devices. Judging from the gestures they communicated with each other, their sight was not affected at all.

The target of this team was obviously a base with flashing lights in the distance. After a simple communication, everyone lined up in a line and began to move forward. After arriving at the predetermined hiding spot, the communications soldier took out the laser guide, and then

In just two minutes, the entire base was covered in flames from the explosion.

At this point in the video, Ye Zhou had not yet seen the changes that the individual soldier exoskeleton had brought to their combat methods. Then, everything that happened next allowed him to fully see how elite this special team was.

After the first round of bombing, this team did not adopt centralized team operations as Ye Zhou speculated, but quickly dispersed. Except for the snipers occupying the commanding heights, all team members were responsible for one direction, and every thirty seconds, after completing a round

After the firepower is output, immediately maneuver to the next point.

Judging from the main shooting perspective of the machine gunner, each of them maneuvered at least a hundred times in just half an hour of firefight.

Although the distance of each maneuver is not very long, taking into account the weight of the equipment they carry and the difficulty of maneuvering on desert terrain, such intensity of maneuver has completely exceeded the limits of any living thing on earth.

Even if you pull a Mongolian horse that can bear the most weight and has the strongest endurance, it will be exhausted after such a high-intensity maneuver. However, from the shaking of the video, it seems that this machine gunner does not even have a breathing rate.

How did the change occur?

This is a brand-new tactic. They use high-intensity maneuvers to make up for the problem of blind spots of firepower. With only 6 people, they create an encirclement and annihilation momentum.

And their battle loss ratio, even without taking into account the early bombing and air support during the battle, reached an astonishing 0:40 or more.

What's even worse is that this m249 machine gunner changed his secondary weapon twice throughout the process, and his server was not an assault rifle or a rocket launcher, but a heavy grenade gun that was supposed to be used for defense!

This grenade gun had its magazine replaced three times in total and fired 18 shells, while the m249 had its drum drum replaced six times and fired more than 1,200 rounds.

From this point of view, this individual soldier exoskeleton is not inferior to the individual soldier exoskeleton currently being tested by China, at least in terms of weight-bearing.

The video ends with the six team members regrouping for defense and waiting for helicopter support, while the base in front of them is already a sea of ​​fire.

Ye Zhou took a deep breath and looked at Man Guangzhi, who also had a solemn expression.

"First of all, there are no problems with the endurance and flexibility of this individual soldier exoskeleton. I don't see how it is controlled, but at least in terms of operation, the soldier's movements are not sluggish."

"Secondly, the strength of this exoskeleton has been obviously increased. You can see that with this level of weight-bearing, they have no problem climbing over a low wall of nearly two meters."

"Third, the mounting method of this exoskeleton is very scientific. Most of the equipment is concentrated on the back and sides, which is similar to our design plan."

"But I haven't seen the role of armor covering. If I were to judge, I would be more inclined to think that armor covering is used to protect the internal structure of the exoskeleton, rather than for low-end bullets."

Man Guangzhi nodded, rewinded the video for more than ten minutes, then pointed at the screen and said:

"I saw something else."

"Comrade Ye, look at this part. This machine gunner has been aiming at a strong fortification in the base. He used the machine gun to continuously shoot at the window of the fortification, and then suddenly stopped shooting and turned to other targets."

"More than ten seconds later, the fortification was destroyed by aerial fire."

While doing this, Man Guangzhi continued to drag the video.

"Also here, after a quick maneuver, the machine gunner reached a new fighting position and the muzzle of the gun was already aimed. However, he did not strike immediately. Instead, he made certain movements on his helmet with his left hand. After a few seconds,

The enemies in front of him were also covered by fire."

"So, based on this situation, we can make a preliminary judgment that all members of this team are connected to the individual data link system. Their helmets should be similar to the fire control helmets of Apache helicopters, which can indicate the strike position in real time.

, select the target to strike, thereby mobilizing supporting firepower to destroy the target."

"This is scary. This was originally the goal we wanted to achieve, but now the other party has achieved it ahead of schedule."

Ye Zhou nodded slightly, then stretched out his hand to slide the video progress bar.

The moment Man Guangzhi dragged the video, he noticed something different.

The video rewinds to a few seconds ago. When the machine gunner reached the fighting position and lay down to adjust his shooting posture, Ye Zhou noticed that there was an obvious sense of frustration in the picture.

Then, the right arm of the mechanical exoskeleton suddenly locked the grip of M249.

After a round of fire, the machine gunner started shooting, and the impact range of the shot was only the size of a basketball.

The combat distance at this time was a full 600 meters, and the range of impact points under continuous shooting did not exceed 30 centimeters. This was definitely not possible by human power.

His mind suddenly recalled the scene he had seen before.

In the simulator, he also experienced this equipment personally in a desert.

"They have individual fire control radars, and the fire control helmets control not only the air support firepower, but also the weapons in their hands."

Ye Zhou said in a low voice.

"Their weapons system and exoskeleton system are integrated."

"The human body is just a vehicle. In fact, it is no longer humans who control the weapons, but machines!"
