Chapter 784 - Small Ways to Solve Big Problems

Commander Ning frowned and said, "Consultant Guo, you are making too much trouble?" Those officers who had participated in the Sino-Vietnamese border war have now been promoted, and some have changed jobs, scattered in different units and different places, and it may be difficult to find them for a while. According to the discipline of the troops, it is not up to me, the army commander, to call the shots in mobilizing them, and I don't know how long it will take to coordinate many units. ”

Guo said solemnly: "No matter how difficult it is to find, we have to find it, and it is much easier to find our own people than to fight." Now we don't know when the Vietnamese army's Jingrui troops will attack and what their preparations will be. If we can knock out their headquarters, destroy their ammunition depots, and destroy their communication and radar stations, we will probably delay or even sabotage their attack, which will greatly reduce the pressure on the defenders and give them more time to build fortifications. Although it may make you lose your achievements, it reduces the casualties of the soldiers, which is an extremely worthwhile deal.

What's more, we have also perfected a weapon of mass destruction -- cruise missiles, which has made Vietnam even more fearful and even more afraid to take it lightly. You can rest assured that as long as this test is successful, the main thing is that you will be able to familiarize yourself with the use of cruise missiles and other sophisticated weapons in the future, and your merits will not be worse than earning a few military merits, and the future of the officers and men will certainly be better, so you should not have any complaints in your hearts. ”

In the latter words, Guo Zhuocheng said to Division Commander Liao and his subordinates: At the level of Commander Ning, he naturally no longer needs the military merits brought by a battle to add luster to his career, and only division-level officers or lower officers are needed for military merits.

Guo Zhuocheng's words made Master Liao blush, and he was very embarrassed. However, after listening to Guo Zhuocheng's words, he became excited in his heart: This is Guo Zhuocheng's promise to him, as long as he cooperates with this cruise missile launch, he will have a future without making military merits.

All officers knew that Guo's promises were far more reliable than those of his superiors. If these words were said by Commander Ning, he might not have been so excited.

He hurriedly said: "Advisor Guo, we fully support this operation. ”

Guo Zhuocheng turned his head to Commander Ning and said, "Elder Qian and I both signed your report. I believe that with your request, the fraternal troops will fully cooperate. Actually, we don't necessarily have to come over all the officers who have fought here, as long as a few mid- and low-ranking officers with flexible minds and strong observation skills come over, and only ten or eight of them will come. ”

Hearing that Guo Zhuocheng and Qian Xuesen would sign it, Commander Ning sighed: With the two of them coming forward, how dare the other troops slack off? It is estimated that many division commanders and army commanders want to come over.

As a matter of fact, it is not difficult to find someone, and it is easy to say that it is easy to say, as long as the higher-level organization issues an order for the military region that participated in the war at that time to check which unit fought here, and then check the list of officers who have been kept. If it is a careful leader with a good memory, he does not even need to check the information, and he can name some officers in key positions with his mouth open. These people can be named within a few seconds, and the staff officers can be asked to call these people in the unit to assemble immediately, and they can be transported to southern Yunnan by plane in less than two days, or even more than ten hours.

At this time, Qian Xuesen interjected: "But Xiao Guo, you haven't solved the problem of discovering lights." Will it be to use planes or to send reconnaissance crews? ”

Guo Zhuocheng said with a smile: "It's not solved, isn't there still you?" The key to solving this problem is you. ”

Qian Xuesen asked in surprise: "In me?" How can I, a nerd, know which places in Vietnam are brightly lit? But Qian Lao was a smart man, and immediately thought of something, and asked in surprise, "You mean the Space Research Institute?" ”

Guo Zhuocheng said: "Yes! It's your space research institute, using satellite photos of them in space. ”

Before Qian Xuesen could speak, Master Liao said, "No! Satellite images simply don't work. Consultant Guo, you don't know, the photos taken by our satellites are very blurry, even if the sun is not clear, what are the photos taken by things on the ground, let alone at night. During the day, except for a few rivers, a few roads, and a few large houses, nothing else came out. At night, at most, there are a few white spots where there are lights, and the rest of the 99% is pitch black. Even if we know that those white dots are important locations for the Vietnamese army, we can't have the latitude and longitude coordinates of those white dots. ”

Commander Ning also said: "Yes, there is no reference, how do we know the location?" Maybe some of them are using electric lights in some of our own border areas. A black picture was given to us, and it was difficult for us to distinguish between the east and the west. ”

Guo Shucheng smiled: "Yes, we can't judge the location in the picture without a reference object, and we don't even know which area is photographed, so how can we determine the coordinates?" By the way, what is the resolution of our satellite photography? ”

Qian Lao also smiled and said: "The resolution is about ten meters, and the vehicles and small houses and trees are really difficult to distinguish on the picture. ”

With a resolution of more than ten meters, Guo Zhuocheng can only be speechless, and the high-resolution satellite photos of his previous life can not only clear the appearance of vehicles on the ground, but also the license plate number. Some media even said that they could clear people's faces and recognize who they were.

Of course, technology is gradually maturing, and the problem of having and not being able to solve it now can only be solved in the future. I believe that the development of satellites in this life will be much faster than in the previous life, as the saying goes, it is easy to do things with money.

Guo Zhuocheng did not complain, but nodded.

Professor Qian continued: "Xiao Guo, you have a good idea! Since we don't have a reference, let's make a reference, and the reference at night is better to make, and the night will cover up all the other superfluous images, leaving only what we need. ”

Qian Xuesen is an extremely smart person, and he immediately understood Guo Zhuocheng's thoughts.

Master Liao asked puzzledly, "How to make a reference?" How to make it, can we have time? ”

Qian Lao smiled: "Let Director Guo tell you." It's better to build two, which is more intuitive and faster to calculate. And it's best to do it now, maybe tonight. ”

"As long as the film on the satellite can be thrown down, we will be able to use it soon," Guo said. As he spoke, Guo Zhuocheng picked up a pencil from the table and drew on a blank piece of paper, "Commander Liao, please immediately arrange for the soldiers to immediately erect two crosses in two places ten kilometers away, not requiring more sturdy and luxurious, as long as you can tie a searchlight to it and shine straight to the sky." The east-west lines of the two crosses were required to be on a parallel as far as possible, and the two lines in the north-south direction were perpendicular. The purpose is that when we descend from the sky, we can reach two standard crosses made of searchlights......"

Now everyone in the room understands, because the coordinates of the two crosses composed of searchlight lights are known, and when the satellite illuminates these two crosses and other light points together, the positions of the other light points can naturally be determined.

After that, the professionals draw these illuminated coordinate points on the military map, and then the officers and soldiers who have fought in this area and know the situation in this area will analyze it, and roughly figure out what kind of units are in these brightly lit places at night.

After determining which places are for military use, combined with relevant intelligence, combined with the soldiers' own analysis and the research of intelligence personnel, and according to the intensity of the lights and the size of the range, it is basically possible to determine the important size of these places, and thus prioritize those places that everyone believes to be the ammunition depots of the Vietnamese army, the command posts of the Vietnamese army headquarters, and the important communication stations as cruise missile strike targets.

As for whether there were any accidental hits or mistakes, that was not a big problem, as long as one or two important points could be hit and the Vietnamese army could be shocked, the test would be considered a success.

Guo Zhuocheng believes that in this era, the place where the lights are still bright in the middle of the night is definitely not a dormitory for ordinary people, it is definitely an important place for military and political affairs, and at worst, they may also be Zhengfu departments.

Understanding Guo Zhuocheng's intentions, Division Commander Liao immediately became enthusiastic, as long as he didn't send his scouts over to send him to death. He was really afraid that Guo Zhuocheng would give an order to let all the scouts go deep into Vietnam, then he couldn't cry After obtaining the consent of Commander Ning, he issued several orders in a row, not only ordering the troops to strengthen the defense of Fazhi Mountain, speeding up the construction of fortifications, ordering the artillery to demarcate the boundaries and set up various areas to attack Zhuyuan, but he also ordered the engineering units under the jurisdiction of the division to immediately set up two searchlight arrays and haul mobile generators to supply power to these searchlights.

Compared with the sappers who can build high-quality roads and bridges on the battlefield, the construction of a searchlight array with two crosses is simply a piece of cake. The only thing that is a bit troublesome is to find searchlights of the same power, which needs to be collected from various units and places.

However, this is not too much of a problem, it just takes some time. Because searchlights are a kind of air defense equipment, there is no shortage of troops, as long as Commander Ning gives the order, they will definitely be able to collect a lot, which can fully meet the needs of this operation.

When Division Commander Liao issued various orders, Commander Ning and Guo Zhuocheng also quickly drew up a report on the relevant request for the transfer of middle and low-level officers, and immediately submitted it to the higher-level leaders by fax.

When the fax telegram was signed by Commander Ning, Guo Shucheng, and Qian Lao, the higher-level leaders immediately took this matter as a political task. Immediately, the General Planning Department and the General Administration Department immediately operated at a high speed to meet their requirements as quickly as possible.
