The No. 2 team at the base acted very quickly and quickly arranged a "friendly match" between the detachment and the test squadron.
As the new ace of the second team and the "preparatory new human being", Wang Ping'an was naturally the first to be introduced.
When he and Angeli were out of the queue, someone in the team shouted: "Come on, new human couple! Use the floating cannon to kill them!"
Wang Ping'an smiled and said: "I'm going to push the asteroid and kill them!"
Everyone in the second detachment burst out laughing. Amidst the laughter, someone shouted: "You'd better not! Because I am an Australian and I don't want Sydney to be bombed again."
This remark triggered a second round of laughter.
After all, it was a friendly match, so everyone was very relaxed. Lieutenant Colonel Nikolay and Major Iras both turned a blind eye.
At this time, Wang Ping'an's opponent also came out of the queue and stood next to the simulation cabin opposite.
As soon as Wang Ping'an saw the man, he began to wonder: "Why is there a person I want to call uncle? People are old and their reactions can't keep up, right?"
Iras immediately began to perform his duties as an instructor: "How do you speak? How do you sing the Three Major Disciplines and Eight Points of Attention?"
Wang Ping'an: "That means speaking in a kind manner to the masses..."
"The same goes for your own comrades!"
At this time, the uncle test pilot spoke: "It's okay. It's a good thing for young people to be energetic. But you can defeat me first and then say these words. Then we will be more convinced. If I say it now, it will only make you look like
A provocative street kid."
Angele burst into laughter.
Wang Ping'an: "Are you on my side?"
"But you really looked like a street kid just now. You need to change this speaking habit."
Wang Ping'an blinked: "Does it really... look like a street kid?"
"It's very similar. You usually hate it, but just now it's not just hateful. It's a bit like the second generation of the protagonist in the popular novels who jumped in the face, that kind of guy who has no meaning in existence other than being slapped in the face by the protagonist.
"Angeli said.
Wang Ping'an was speechless: "It seems that you have read a lot of this kind of 'popular literature'. That's fine, just do as the Romans do. Well, I was wrong just now, I'm sorry."
At this time, someone from the test flight detachment shouted: "This is our meritorious father here. He has received the gold star, but he just doesn't want to wear it."
"Dad" frowned: "How many times have I told you not to mention this? For what I have done, a silver star is enough. If it was a silver star, I would wear it proudly and show off to everyone. But
Venus... I don't deserve it now, so I have to wait until I do something worthy before wearing it."
As he said that, he turned to look at Wang Ping'an: "I have read your combat record. You actually deserve a gold star. Enough chatting, let's talk about the next battle."
Wang Ping'an spread his hands: "Talking about simulated battles? What's there to say? Just follow the previous practice. Random battlefield environment, approach a thousand kilometers apart, with the same track direction... Crossing is okay, but the fighting time would be too long.
short."
All battles in space are actually pursuit battles. The overall movement direction of both combatants is basically the same, and all orbit changes actually change the relative speed of both parties.
If you limit your perspective to the "battlefield", you will feel that the two sides are approaching and pulling away, and they are entangled in each other's maneuvers.
But zooming in to a planet-level scale, you will find that both sides are actually moving in orbit together with the "battlefield".
Therefore, in "air combat" in the universe, the first problem to be solved is to get both sides on the same orbit.
In the past, there were no torch engines, so both sides would perform complex orbit changes before fighting. In this process, they might have to circle the earth several times, and they might even have to "borrow" the moon.
Therefore, in that era, a series of "orbital military science" was born, which mainly studied how to make space targets that one does not want to be destroyed by the enemy avoid the enemy's combat units by changing orbits, while allowing one's own combat units to capture the enemy's key targets.
.
Now that we have the Torch Engine, things are much simpler, and orbital military science has mostly become an "obsolete thing."
The torch ship can rely on its engines to resist the influence of various gravitational forces, and can do things that were previously unimaginable, such as changing its original clockwise orbit around the planet into a counterclockwise orbit.
Combat boats are also classified as torch ships, but they are different from battleships in that they carry very little propellant - that is, water. Delta is much smaller than battleships. After making that exaggerated orbit change, it is basically
There is no propellant left.
Therefore, the battle of combat boats is different from the battle of battleships. The battle of combat boats must confine the battlefield to the same track.
That's why Wang Ping'an said this was "conventional".
But the uncle opposite shook his head: "Of course that's okay. It's okay to handle friendly matches between others as such. But you are different. Aren't we going to prove that you are a new human being?"
Wang Ping'an frowned: "Why, you also want to fight one out of ten? No, I tried it before, but I couldn't beat it on Mars. The reason why I can survive from more than ten pirates in actual combat is... because the battlefield is full of surprises.
, or just plain good luck.”
Uncle: "Isn't it because you are a new human being?"
"After all, it's not certain whether the New Human Race really exists." Wang Ping'an spread his hands, "Why, you still want to give it a try?"
The uncle shook his head: "No, I have carefully studied all your flight records, so I have a special request. I request that the battlefield be set to the track where the fleet battle just took place. Both sides lost a total of about a hundred ships.
10,000-ton battleship.”
Wang Ping'an frowned: "This scale has exceeded the largest space battle in the last war. The debris generated by that battle took a total of fifteen years to clean up."
The uncle nodded: "Yes, that's it. The entire battlefield is full of 'space junk', and the battle has just ended, so the debris is not widely scattered."
"There are still all infrared signals left." Angeli said, "The electromagnetic environment will also be very complex."
After speaking, she looked at Wang Ping'an's side face: "Can this still be said to be a mock battle? Isn't this just a competition to see who can last longer in the sea of debris? There will be no battle at all, the debris will determine life and death.
"
Wang Ping'an looked directly at his uncle: "Why do you want to set it up like this?"
"Don't worry, listen to me. I don't have the confidence to sail safely in such an environment, so I have to cheat myself. The computer simulating the battlefield will give me tips on the movement direction of all the debris and help me avoid them.
"
Wang Ping'an: "Quack!"
The uncle was startled and looked at Wang Pingan in confusion: "What's wrong with you?"
Wang Ping'an: "It's nothing. We young people like to shout like this to express our indignation when encountering cheaters."
The uncle looked serious: "Isn't this the best opportunity to prove that you are a new human being? I originally wanted to have a traditional mock battle with you, but I thought about it all night and felt that ordinary mock battles can't prove anything at all.
.Especially when you randomly go to an empty battlefield, isn't it just a matter of luck and energy management?
"But this is different. If you can win, I will personally write a report saying that you are a new human being."
