138 Force Assessment and Social Formation Deduction
In comparison, the content in the hands of a nuclear physicist is easier to understand, with some physical reaction programs and sketches of many unfamiliar devices.
Rao Xin is writing science fiction anyway, and after looking at it carefully for a while, it is not difficult to see that this is a description of antimatter annihilation, several typical light element nuclear fusion, and electromagnetic effects.
The last document I saw was that of the non-commissioned officer in military uniform, and what he had in his hand was more straightforward than the othersโa sword, with hypothetical weapon parameters and accuracy written underneath. Behind it are many of the planet's conventional weapons, including military rifles,*, tanks, and some flying machines.
Then everyone looked at each other, and after a moment of humility, the Master Chief was the first to speak, after all, he was the most vocal on this subject.
"Well, I've probably read it all, and the conclusion is very simple, if you really want to fight, if you only use the weapons on the data, we won't play."
"The premise of this conclusion is very simple, we have no way to lock on to a single person on the other side, there is no obvious target for attack, and there is no satellite-guided positioning in the target area - and any attempt to locate will be discovered and countered by the other side."
"Besides, it's their territory, and the other party will fly. When we encounter them, it is like infantry encountering cavalry in the era of cold weapons, we can only stay in place, and we have no ability to take the initiative to attack and control the initiative on the battlefield. And even if it's defense, we don't have absolute certainty. โ
"The other side's kind of flying sword, only in terms of speed, the power can be seen as shrapnel of an artillery shell, and it is a precision-guided cannonball. Except for a few people hiding in the tank, no one else could protect themselves. Digging fortifications in that environment is also very useless, and the information says that those swords can also be used to destroy fortifications - no matter where you are hiding, they will find you. โ
The statement of the Master Chief was basically representative of everyone's opinion. Of the five people, only the programmer was not very agreeable.
"If it's just from a weapons point of view, maybe like the commander said, we can't fight. But you don't know if you have noticed, what is the main pattern of war in the 21st century? Or is it a competition for the quality of weapons? What is informationization is to suppress the opponent in the weakest link of the opponent and make it impossible for the opponent to give full play to the combat effectiveness that the opponent originally possessed. โ
"Everyone should have read the information in my hand, if you know how to program, you should be able to guess what you are saying, if you don't understand, I can also explain it simply."
"It is an identity verification protocol, and the function of this protocol is that after Party A makes an application, Party B agrees to the application and opens up the permissions. After that, Party A continues to provide Party B with location and movement information to ensure that this permission can be carried out normally. According to the information, these people can communicate through electromagnetic waves, as well as remote weapon control - this protocol is the control model of the flying sword. โ
"That is, this sword looks like *, but it is not*. * After launching, even if the command and positioning are lost, they can still rely on their own target recognition system to continue the mission. And this flying sword - as long as its communication is disrupted, then it loses control and becomes completely non-threatening. โ
"So in my opinion, if there is a war, we are at a disadvantage in the early stage, which is certain, but not to the point where we are completely defenseless. Relying on jamming radar, we can easily establish a certain range of safety zones. If the other side can't carry out other forms of strikes on our safe zone, we can continue to expand our reach. โ
"Of course, I don't know much about the military, and I don't know exactly how far the jamming radar can carry out effective jamming, and what our combat goals are."
The words of the programmer inspired the Master Chief Chief: "Electronic warfare! That's a good idea! According to the power of existing military radars, the problem of signal shielding for hundreds of kilometers with one radar should not be very big. โ
Rao Xin made a little addition: "When it comes to combat goals, I have a little idea. It is mentioned in the information that on this planet, wireless power supply is used to maintain energy, and there must be power production devices. As long as we find this device and destroy it, most people's power sources will be cut off. Modern warfare starts with a country's power facilities, and according to this logic, their power production and transmission devices should also be the primary target. โ
Nuclear physics experts have a little objection to Rao Xin's opinion: "Power transmission devices can be attacked, but power production devices cannot." This is a fusion reactor in which energy is produced at a rate equivalent to frying one per minute*. It would be too risky for us to attack such a facility. โ
The professor of linguistics nodded: "Judging from the data, on the entire planet, the builders and users of the facilities are two completely different civilizations, and there is no need to generalize. From the perspective of linguistics alone, our civilization, as an imaginary enemy, does not possess the consciousness of modern warfare and the ability of tactics and strategies. Their vocabulary is only as rich as that of primitive societies, when language was just taking shape โ to a large extent, it has a lot to do with their very homogeneous way of life. โ
The discussion quickly became lively, and everyone listened and wrote down the reasons they thought were appropriate. According to the requirements in the contract they received, each person must issue a separate report after the meeting, and Qinglan Consulting will give everyone the balance and some additional bonuses according to the quality of the report.
Half an hour later, everyone felt that the issue had been well resolved, and they asked the non-commissioned officer chief to report to Shen Changwen, apply for the dissolution of this group, and everyone moved on to the next topic.
The second topic that Rao Xin received was the deduction of the existing flying civilization and their social form, including why they lost technology and knowledge, and what are the possible reasons; And how their social formation would continue to develop without interference.
Compared with the first topic, Rao Xin has more room to play on this topic.
On the first point, Rao Xin put forward a hypothesis, arguing that for advanced civilizations, the loss of technology and knowledge itself may not be passive, but active.
Because from the point of view that the entire planet is completely maintained, this civilization is prepared for the current state. The form of this planet, and the bodies of all flying people, are not completely natural. In its natural state, there will be no hollow thin-shelled planets, and it is unlikely that carbon-based organisms that can use electromagnetic waves will evolve.
In other words, the civilization has reached its current state as it is the result of a long period of design and implementation โ and this is even the purpose of civilization itself. They build a self-sufficient world, and then emasculate their knowledge altogetherโin the hope of some kind of eternity.
In this regard, Rao Xin's attitude is very optimistic, he feels that the civilization is not ignorant because of any difficulties and disasters encountered, but that their culture is actively pursuing to achieve this state.
On the second point, Rao Xin became pessimistic again.
People can be cloned and reborn when they die, and fuel can be automatically transported from outer space, but Rao Xin feels that no matter how perfect a closed civilization is, the whole system will definitely be on the verge of collapse in the end. His reasoning is simple, because the more complex the system, the less fault tolerance there is. Although the civilization described in the source seems simple enough - Rao Xin feels that it is far from enough, because he does not take into account the fact that a group of ignorant people themselves will have a counterproductive effect on this ecology.
Of course, there is no mention in these materials that the world is in trouble, and the search and rescue team is there to save them. So in a sense, Rao Xin's pessimistic view is to guess the answer without knowing the answer - because this kind of collapse scene has appeared. The flyers attacked the fuel-carrying spacecraft, and this was the point where the system could not afford to go wrong - I guess the designers of this civilization would never have imagined such an outcome in the first place.
In the midst of such heated discussions, a morning passed before I knew it. When Rao Xin went out to eat, he was still in a mood.
Just like the person from the toy factory said, bragging about B can get thousands of dollars, and such a good thing is undreamable.
Rao Xin wasn't so low, he just subconsciously felt that these strange ideas that he used to write novels were really noticed by someone, not only noted, but also valued. To be able to invite him here and spend a few thousand dollars to listen to him for a morning is enough to prove that he is valued. Thinking that the other party may be someone reading his novel, and has been silently paying attention to himself, Rao Xin feels extraordinarily useful.
According to Qinglan Consulting's schedule, there is no formal meeting in the afternoon, but they can go to the company to chat together - even if it is brainstorming. Of course, it's okay not to go, it's not mandatory.
Of course Rao Xin went, but there were not many people who chose to come back like him, after all, most of them still had their own jobs, and many people came over in the morning to ask for leave. There are really a few people like him who come by plane. He looked at the company, and only the programmer and linguist remained. None of them seemed interested in talking about anything else - they stayed there to study the language on the papers.
Rao Xin didn't understand the program, let alone those unfamiliar symbols, so after he looked at it for a while, he felt bored and planned to leave, at this time, He Yuqing, who had spoken to him before, said to him: "Ah, someone wants to talk to you, he is on QQ." โ
Rao Xin turned on the computer, logged in to his QQ, and added the other party's number. The other party quickly sent him a sentence: "In your novel, the concept of civilization aging was mentioned, let's talk about this topic." โ
