Chapter 8
Chapter 7 Special training
Before maneuvering the mech, identity authentication is a necessary step. After confirming the identity, the mecha will respond to the driver’s commands through motion, voice and even brain waves. Just like firearms and swords, a mecha usually has only one pilot, and the two sides are like partners, cooperating with each other over the years to face the enemy together on the battlefield. Unlike resetting the energy distribution system, as long as the mecha agrees, its driver can be replaced at will, as long as the new information is entered, the mecha will not lose life due to this. However, in general, the “original configuration” is the most suitable, because the attributes and styles of the mecha are all set by the first pilot according to his needs. There are also cases where the mecha wants to change the driver but the request cannot be met—the former driver once died in the mecha. Countless examples in the past have proved that if the driver dies in the mecha, even if the driver is replaced, the mecha may not be able to exert its original power. In this case, formatting it or directly retiring it is the best choice .
This set of solutions is a tradition formed after the widespread use of smart mechas. Smart mechas were put into use 200 years ago. At the beginning, they were criticized from all levels. However, with the evolution and improvement of smart mechas, various oppositions became less and less until they disappeared, because human brain functions are ultimately limited. , And the computing power and inference ability of the machine brain is almost infinite, and it can do things that the human brain cannot. At present, the driver’s command priority is absolutely higher than that of the mecha, that is to say, when the driver issues a command, the mecha must execute it and absolutely cannot make its own claim. Mechas can only give opinions and suggestions, or provide supplementary functions when the pilot cannot take care of them. However, some scholars and military generals now believe that the army should trust the machine more and put some fully automatic mechas on the battlefield. The role they play is unquestionable, but the shortcomings also exist. The most obvious is that because all the orders of the mecha are based on calculations, the enemy can more easily guess the actions of these fully automatic mechas and block them. People with fighting talents often make unexpected moves to win the victory.
Looking at the row of command keys that he had kissed and thought he would never touch again, Wu Qiao was very moved.
By mistake, he is still the driver of Crow Jiu, which makes him dizzy with happiness, but after all, the origin of this happiness is unknown, and it seems that there is no way out.
Ya Jiuyi started to walk honestly, but after seeing Wu Qiao, he didn’t give any instructions. He jumped and jumped there.
“It doesn’t look like you can’t remember how to walk,” Tan Yan said in a whisper.
“Huh?!” Ya Jiu was nervous and cautiously said, “I remember a little now…”
“Humph.”
“Admiral Tan Yan…” Ya Jiu asked, “Long Yuan… does it know my name?”
“do not know.”
“Then… how can I let it discover my existence?”
“Difficult.” Tan Yan said ruthlessly, “It is not interested in things other than hacking people.”
“Um…” Ya Jiu struggled for a long time, but still couldn’t find any common ground between “Know Yourself” and “Cut People”. After “Uh” for a long time, he had to give up, and a trace of melancholy appeared in his heart.
“That…” After taking a look at Tan Yan, Wu Qiao asked, “Apart from walking, what else should I do? Do you want to practice something else?”
“Yes, yes, yes,” Ya Jiu echoed, “I want to start walking, but I forgot about other things!”
“…” Tan Yan said, “You two don’t go too far. Wu Qiao, don’t forget that you are not qualified to drive a mech.”
“…Oh.” Wu Qiao thought to himself, why didn’t he say that he was not qualified when he was a Mine Star? Qualification is round or square, as if it all depends on the other party’s preference.
“Forget it.” A few seconds later, Tan Yan pretended to give in, “It’s okay to practice some other movements.”
“Huh?” Wu Qiao’s eyes lit up. Not everyone has the opportunity to give Tan Yan one-on-one coaching.
“I don’t want to delay its time in vain. It’s okay to start training now, so that if it has a new driver, it can be thrown on the battlefield as soon as possible. However, I will only let it conduct the most regular training. Don’t expect you to What great things have been learned.”
“Okay, thank you.” Wu Qiao felt that even with the same knowledge, Tan Yan would have said it would be better.
“What do you want it to practice first?”
“Um…” Wu Qiao thought for a while, “Dodge? If the enemy’s weapon locks you, what can you do to not be hit?” Wu Qiao felt that not being hit is the most basic, and then he can find a way to attack. Although it doesn’t sound very passionate, this is a modern war.
“Okay.” Tan Yan explained, “There are mainly four methods. First, maneuver dodge, that is to say, use the driver’s technology to get rid of, which is becoming more and more difficult to achieve. The initial speed of ordinary shells It is getting faster and faster. In the past artillery era, explosives were used for launching. The initial speed of the cannonball was 2000 meters per second, which was the limit. It hovered around 1800 over the years. No matter how the dose was increased, it was the same. So you read the previous books and videos. , The pilots are often brave and shuttle through the sky… but now, it is almost impossible. Laser weapons are all light speed. The initial speed of electromagnetic guns using coils or meteor rails can reach 6000 meters per second. Physical evasion is already very difficult. , If you want to flash, it is best to predict in advance.”
“…”
“The same is true for tracking missiles. The speed is getting faster and faster, and it is difficult for mechas to get rid of it. 95% of them may be hit by it. It is no longer the era when several tracking missiles can be thrown away in a war. If you want to maneuver to dodge, don’t drive as fast as most people teach you, because no matter how fast you are, you cannot escape beyond its sensing range. On the contrary, it will make you less flexible when turning. My suggestion is to lower the speed, run at a speed that just won’t be caught up by it, and then use the terrain and other advantages to deal with it until it runs out of fuel and falls by itself. Of course, you have a way to make it crash into something else. Things are better.”
Wu Qiaozi listened carefully and nodded in agreement from time to time.
“The second method is technical evasion.” Tan Yanyoudao, “We have a lot of technology to use, which requires a very fast driving response. For electromagnetic guns, we have interception systems, and for laser weapons, we have anti-optical systems. For infrared tracking missiles, we use thermal decoys to interfere with infrared detection, and for radar tracking missiles, we use the method of throwing metal pieces…”
“Hmm.”
“Third, expand the shield to reduce damage.” Tan Yan continued, “Now mechas have shields, and they can reduce damage.”
“Then…what about the fourth?” Wu Qiao couldn’t think of it. In addition to the three points just now, there was any way to dodge the attack.
“Fourth?” Tan Yan said coldly, “Abandon the armor and parachute, save your dog’s life.”
Abandon a parachute, save your life?
Wu Qiao studied seriously, and asked, “Just like you were in Mining Star, right?”
Tan Yan: “…”
He really wanted to wash away this memory of Wu Qiao. This was Tan Yan’s most failed day, and it was Waste Chai who rescued him in the end.
“Okay,” Wu Qiao said, “just four o’clock, I understand.”
“you understood?”
“Ok.”
“You know what a shit.” Wu Qiao had just said “Abandoning armor to parachute to save your dog’s life” and could not refute it. The general was very upset at the moment.
“…”
“If you don’t believe it, we can do a practice now to see if you understand it.”
“…Exercise?”
“Correct.”
There are devices on the training field that can randomly launch simulated shells and missiles. They do not have any substantial destructive ability. They will only make a sound when they hit the target and display the picture when the target is hit on the screen. Finally, the system The score is automatically calculated, and the scores of the pilot and mecha in this simulated battle are given.
Before the start, Wu Qiao asked Tan Yan: “Can battle music be played in the mecha?”
Wu Qiao felt that it was quiet and not enough to burn.
It was the first time that Wu Qiao went to the training ground to train. He was majestic and protruding from the left to the right, but he remained silent, which was far from the effect he wanted.
Tan Yan’s eyelids twitched: “…nothing.”
“…Oh.” Wu Qiao said, “let’s forget it.”
“If you want music, you need to bring your own equipment.” Tan Yan kindly gave a plan, “It’s not that such people don’t have their own equipment…every time they play in battle, they bring their own equipment and play strange music there.”
“Okay, I remember.”
After a series of activation sounds, Wu Qiao controlled Ya Jiugang to fly into the sky.
As a result, within less than five seconds, he was bombarded.
Things crossed and dazzlingly crossed in front of me, various beams and soft shells flew from all directions, the electronic sound that was hit kept beating, and the pictures on the screen kept changing like a revolving lantern. Wu Qiao was simply divided. It’s not clear where exactly was hit.
“…It’s miserable.” Tan Yan sighed.
Wu Qiao: “…”
This…it’s not right. He felt that he should complete the simulation very well, and then smiled puzzledly at Tan Yan next to him, and said, “Why does this seem to be very simple, not the same as what I saw on TV?”
“You have to pay attention to observation, not to act randomly.” Tan Yan played back the video just now. “First of all, you have to pay attention to the fact that there are many beams and shells that are not threatening to you, just like on the battlefield. You have to be able to Distinguish what can hit you, but make a reasonable choice. Secondly, you must be able to see what types of threatening weapons are, consider how to combine mobile evasion, technical evasion, etc., and grasp the time to complete the shuttle mission as soon as possible .”
“…Oh.”
A few more times, it’s still the same.
Tan Yan had a bad temper and was finally ignited at this moment: “Stop!”
“…Ok?”
“I can’t watch it anymore. Just stay by yourself. I’m just wasting time here. I’m not too idle to waste time yet.”
“…Oh.”
Tan Yan stepped on the lifting board to leave Ya Jiu, but before walking out of the training ground, he adjusted the training system to twelve o’clock before shutting down. He didn’t understand why he left this training system to Wu Qiao. He just vaguely knew that he wanted to see which step he could do with his belief that he would be the 0.01% waste. Strictly speaking, he shouldn’t agree to Wu Qiao’s practice, but… anyway, it’s not a big deal. It’s not a big deal to upgrade from walking to left and right jumping. This point of authority is still available. Ya Jiu does need training, and it only allows Wu Qiao to sit in it. Otherwise, you will hang yourself by crying, making trouble, and hanging yourself.
Watching Tan Yan leave, Wu Qiao sighed. It seems that this thing… is still quite difficult to learn.
However, what Wu Qiao believes most is the sentence that there is a will. He also posted this sentence on the wall. Naturally, he would not be immediately negatively depressed after being hit.
He manipulated Ya Jiu, constantly challenging the system, and practiced until the system shut down at 12 o’clock…Finally, he couldn’t be so embarrassed anymore.
What Wu Qiao didn’t know was that afterwards, nearly 12 o’clock, Tan Yan had come back again, but he didn’t approach him. He just watched quietly there for a while and then turned and left.
—Back to the dormitory, it is already 12:30.
Wu Qiao looked at Ya Jiu, who had become the size of a human again, and said in a low voice: “Yu Jiu…Are you okay?”
“what?!”
“Tired?”
“Not tired!”
Wu Qiao just remembered that the mecha should not be tiring.
He thought for a while, then said: “…I’m sorry.”
“what?!”
“You seem to be very depressed.”
“It’s not because of you…” Ya Jiu replied, “For newcomers, your performance should be considered normal, right? Although I don’t know too much…I am frustrated because Long Yuan…It is only interested in hacking people, then What should I do?”
“…Help him chop?”
“Um… Maybe it is.” Ya Jiu wrapped the quilt and hugged the pillow, seeming to be really very upset.
“…”
Wu Qiao called up the computer and was about to write a diary.
The ID he used to record this online diary was “Serious Man”. When Su Yiqing saw this ID, his friend Su Yiqing laughed backwards and laughed at Wu Qiao for half a year.
Wu Qiao has the habit of keeping a diary, especially after being rejected by the military academy. He is still sticking to the original ideal. He wants to write down all the hardships that were not foreseen on this road. Then, when the ideal is realized, he will look through it again when he is honorably discharged as a soldier. He must have a lot of emotions. It will be the best moment of his life. Wu Qiao felt that the most beautiful moment of “don’t give up” would never be the time to stick to this path, but when the goals were achieved one by one, looking back on the past, thinking of the seemingly insurmountable obstacles and that time and time again. The cynicism of the people around me recalled my determination to persevere every time. I patted my chest and secretly rejoiced and thanked God. Fortunately, I didn’t give up at the time.
After Wu Qiao finished his diary, it was one o’clock in the night.
His mind still couldn’t calm down, and all that came and went were shots of driving mechas.
Wu Qiao recalled the process of every dodge training—what was the situation at the time, why he was hit, how should he avoid the attack, and then, unconsciously, began to reconstruct in his mind, imagining that he did it well. In the challenging scene, I sketched his beautiful posture over and over again, thinking, while burning, and feeling a little ashamed. After all, the actual situation is completely opposite… However, no one knows his imagination, what is in his head anyway. He is alone.
Slowly, Wu Qiao was sleepy. In the midst of being confused, ups and downs, there was still a battle net woven with light beams and shells. He dodged lightly in it until he fell asleep completely. In his dream, he He was still instructing Ya Jiufei on this side, on the fly side, up and down, left and right, all night.
…
—From this day on, Wu Qiao will go to the training ground every day, and he will start the armor in the same dream at night.
When he was training, Tan Yan would sometimes appear suddenly, out of nowhere, completely unpredictable—just like that person’s emotions.
After getting along for so long, Wu Qiao also understood Tan Yan a little bit. Wu Qiao felt that Tan Yan was actually a good person and helped him a lot, but he was so nasty, he always seemed to be very owed, and the most owed thing was that he always gave people a kind of “I’m so owed, but You can’t beat me again, so I don’t care.
Wu Qiao carefully remembered all the instructions given by Tan Yan, and he also increasingly discovered that Tan Yan had a lot of his own ideas about fighting. Tan Yan’s handsome and beautiful five-star general uniform was indeed only envied by others. Portion.
In two months, Wuqiao’s evasion technique got better and better, and he could finally complete most of the tasks and successfully fly to the end.
At the same time, he also conducted some simulated shooting training, using the same ordinary beams and fake shells, and the system determines the attack effect.
In the beginning, Wu Qiao would only stand on the ground to attack. As long as he rose to mid-air, more than 95% of his attacks would be ineffective. Later, Wu Qiao finally understood step by step how to use Crow Jiu to calculate distance, calculate the resistance and gravity in the atmosphere at that time. Thereby improving the hit rate of the attack, it also knows more clearly when to launch unguided weapons and when to launch guided weapons.
He and Ya Jiu cooperated more and more tacitly, Wu Qiao really couldn’t understand why no one else would accept Ya Jiu.
That’s right, Ya Jiu… still didn’t find the driver. No matter who it is, as long as he sees Ya Jiu and thinks of confronting it with him, he is afraid.
…
—That’s it, after two months of busy work, the exam finally came.
Just as Wu Qiao expected, Ya Jiu was not allowed to be taken into the examination room, so he could only watch from the outside.
There were a total of 30 people who came to take the exam, and in the end only ten people could be admitted, receive extremely rigorous training, and become the reserve force of the imperial military officers.
What surprised Wu Qiao was that he found someone he knew among these test takers.
-Sheng Zhongguang.
Sheng Zhongguang was a roommate in the first two years of Wuqiao Junior High School, and the relationship between the two has always been very good. Sheng Zhongguang was extremely smart. He passed high school without going to the final year of junior high school. After a year of high school, he skipped another grade. In Wuqiao’s sophomore year, Sheng Zhongguang had already gone to military academy. At that time, everyone was shocked to know that he went to the military school, including Wu Qiao, because Sheng Zhongguang was very courageous, afraid of death and injury, and would cry when he saw blood. It is said that it was because he was too good and because he was different from others when he was a child. And being bullied, formed that kind of cowardly character. He was deaf in both ears when he was in elementary school. The doctor said it was because he closed himself up and didn’t want to hear any malicious words.
I would see him here…
Shocked, Wu Qiao heard the other party shout in surprise: “Wu Qiao!”
“Hi!” Wu Qiao said hello.
“Why are you here?”
Wu Qiao briefly talked about Mining Star and asked Tan Yan to recommend him. In the end, he turned around and said, “You graduated? We were all surprised when you went to the military academy.” Wu Qiao said.
“Oh, that…” Sheng Zhongguang was a little bit embarrassed, “Actually, I just want to practice courage…”
“what?”
“My parents said I was too timid. I think about it like that. I’m afraid of hurting myself in everything. I always ask if it is dangerous. It’s too conservative and it’s not good. I feel like I’m going to do nothing in the end… so at that time. I plan to train myself. After graduating from the military academy, I will stay in the army for five years and come out as a man.”
“Oh…” Wu Qiao was stunned.
“As a result, I didn’t expect… After four years in the military academy, I still didn’t practice. I was afraid of enlisting, but I didn’t want to give up again… I heard that the officer will be an officer at the end of this course. I think it will be a little safer than ordinary soldiers… After completing the training, It’s not particularly dangerous. After five years of military service, it will change more or less.”
Wu Qiao couldn’t help laughing when he heard this.
Just as he was about to say something, Wu Qiao saw a triad-like man approaching, with a bald head, a bright head, and his eyes as big as copper bells, and he was still protruding outward.
“Who is this?” Wu Qiao asked.
“I don’t know, parents, it’s really scary, how did you get in?”
As soon as the voice fell, the man took off his jacket and set it aside, revealing the military uniform inside: “I am the chief examiner this time.”
Wu Qiao: “…”
Sheng Zhongguang: “…”
The man continued: “The exam will start in fifteen minutes. It is worth mentioning that you have worked hard and General Tan Yan has come to observe it for an unprecedented time.”
