Chapter 134 The drill begins!
Chapter 134 The drill begins!
No man can resist the charm of heavy weapons.
It's like no girl can resist sparkling jewelry!
When Wang Tao and his friends went to "pick up the car" just now, they were so excited by the dazzling array of "heavy equipment" that they couldn't stop.
Bai Xi made a gesture and Bai Ze went into sleep mode, then she walked over and looked at the two cars.
By the way, in the factory, Bai Ze was finally able to operate at full power. After all, other things might be lacking here, but electricity and sunlight were 100% sufficient!
Bai Xi looked up and observed the two big guys...it was indeed shocking.
She finally understood why girls also like the G-Class. It’s simple, it’s just because it looks handsome!
One of these will be used as an exercise command vehicle, and the other will be used as an aircraft mobile combat platform. They were brought here specifically to undergo modification.
While discussing with the driver where to park the car, Yang Ru walked in.
In his eyes, these heavy weapons were nothing special as he saw them every day. Instead, he was more interested in the aircraft.
Seeing the washbasin-sized Qingluan-01 on the table, even though I knew it was made by Bai Xi, I still felt that... it was just that...
However, he did not dampen Bai Xi's interest. On the one hand, he had confidence in what Bai Xi had to come up with. On the other hand, even if it turned out to be a farce in the end, he was willing to let Bai Xi come and help look at the design plan of "Kunpeng".
Now "Kunpeng" is the apple of the eye of the general assembly.
To some extent, this is not wrong. A completely domestically produced unmanned stealth strategic assault bomber, and one that is far ahead of the others, has a very important meaning.
On the contrary, unmanned aerial vehicles... Even before Bai Xi was reborn, after being popular in the civilian field for many years, it was not until the fight between the two bears that people realized the strategic significance of this thing.
Yang Ru said, "It has been arranged. The day after tomorrow, an entire armored company, eight tanks, 40 infantry soldiers, and some supporting logistics personnel, a total of 100 people will participate in this exercise. The location is the western test site."
Bai Xi nodded: "Okay, you guys will be responsible for that part, so that we can collect real data."
Yang Ru asked with a smile: "Are you sure it's live ammunition? It doesn't matter if these little things are broken, right?"
Bai Xi didn't care: "Just shoot them as you like. Once I have my production line up, I can have as many of these aircraft as you want. They're not worth much."
Yang Ru understood, but then said sternly, "But you must ensure your own safety. I emphasize again that you must stay 5 kilometers away. If there is any sign of a threat to your safety, this drill will be canceled on the spot."
"Don't worry, I'm not a child anymore. I won't joke about my life~"
"That's the best!"
......
Two days later.
On the west side of the base, there is a vast testing ground.
An armored company drove in amidst a cloud of dust.
This place is often used to test various weapons, equipment, ammunition, etc. The ground is naturally bumpy. At the edge of the test site, there are also a group of simulated buildings. Although they are dilapidated and covered with bullet holes, they are also reinforced concrete structures.
The armored company commander received an order to conduct a no-information, encounter-based confrontation exercise with the goal of holding the position.
The other commands are also weird.
For example, live-ammunition design was allowed, but the three artillery pieces of the armored company were directly taken away and not allowed to be used, for fear of accidental injuries.
For example, if we have live ammunition but the other side is using practice ammunition, isn’t that outrageous? The company commander confirmed it three times in a row.
Moreover, the company commander did not receive any information about what kind of enemy he was facing, and the main focus was on a "skirmish".
This armored company has been stationed here for a long time and is very familiar with the test site. They come here dozens of times a year, so they can deploy tactics quickly.
"Unlucky! There aren't any trees. Tank Platoons 1 and 2, take cover behind the structured bunkers. Third Platoon, there are several dry ditches to the south. Go there and widen them. Add machine guns and prepare for crossfire. The drill will begin in two hours. Hurry!"
At this time, on the other side of the training ground, a few kilometers away.
A "Dongfeng-Mengshi" led the way, followed by a huge "Wanshan WS2400" that also followed with a roar.
At the rear of the truck is an ordinary-looking container.
It doesn't look like they are going for a rehearsal, but more like they are going to deliver goods.
Sitting on the "Mengshi" were Bai Xi, the driver, Wang Tao and two weapons assessment experts from the general assembly.
During the bumpy ride, Wang Tao was a little worried: "Boss Bai, with such a bumpy ride, is Qingluan damaged?"
Bai Xi squinted her eyes. She was exhausted these past few days and had no intention of opening them. She said directly, "It's broken, but there's nothing we can do about it. The purpose is to collect real data."
For the military part, a special mobile combat platform must be designed, and this situation will be improved in the future.
This is a weapons assessment expert who said, "Currently, the Eagle Sauce is the only country that has made some progress in the field of unmanned combat, but they are all large fixed-wing drones. Your bionic aircraft, although they look relatively novel, are still fragile."
Without even turning his head, Bai Xi said, "Well, you're right."
It's not that she looks down on the weapons assessment experts of the General Assembly, but she is the only one in the world who understands the ins and outs of this thing.
Besides, it's not impossible to build a large fixed-wing aircraft. You have to eat one bite at a time. If you eat too much and become fat, you will only choke to death.
......
The two vehicles arrived at the designated area, northwest of the test site, about 7 kilometers away from the "Red Team" of the exercise.
This is also a reasonable distance obtained by combining the battery life of the three current models in the Qingluan series.
On the endless Gobi Desert, there are only wild grass and gravel. Occasionally, a crosswind blows, and the dead grass on the ground rolls unwillingly in loneliness.
Many people got off the two vehicles and moved boxes of fully charged batteries to the open space.
This job is not easy. The things are very heavy. It takes three adult men to lift them together. Even well-trained soldiers find it difficult.
Bai Xi looked at the veins bulging on the necks of several soldiers and silently prioritized the development of the "automatic battery replacement function."
After the bolts were pulled out, the container unfolded in all directions, revealing a honeycomb-like mechanical structure inside, where a number of bionic aircraft were sleeping quietly.
It is so densely packed that it looks uniquely solemn.
After a series of adjustments, and confirming everything was correct, Bai Xi took out his intercom and said, "Blue team is ready. Request to begin the drill."
Yes, in this exercise, they are the blue team.
On the tower a few kilometers away, Yang Ru and some weapons assessment experts were using telescopes to observe the overall situation.
They have better vision and can see both sides.
Yang Ru also received the same message from the Red Team. After a moment, he replied, "Permission to begin. Miss Bai, please be sure to pay attention to safety."
"rest assured."
Hearing Yang Ru's rare serious tone, Bai Xi also replied solemnly.
Then he took a deep breath and continued, "Everyone, stay away from the combat platform!"
He then made a gesture, and Bai Ze, who received the signal, issued an order instantly.
At first, there was silence.
Then, the continuous sound of mechanical wings vibrating occupied the entire auditory frequency band in this space.
