Chapter 357: Military Enhancement

"A creature like a human being, if you don't force it, it's really hard to give full play to your full potential......

After reading this military report, Zhang Yuan couldn't help but sigh.

On paper, I finally feel shallow, and I never know that I have to do it. In practice, it is completely different from theory, and this should be the best way to use virtual world technology so far.

In this report, it can be seen that after two years of training, the casualty rate of holding on for four hours has been reduced from more than 50% at the beginning to less than 20% at present, and the soldiers' individual combat ability and coordination ability have been comprehensively enhanced.

"It's time for another exercise......"

In the past, soldiers also had related exercises, but they used electronic firearms, that is, after being hit, the helmet emitted blue smoke, and then announced that they were "dead".

In regular exercises, you can't really shoot your own soldiers and beat them to death, right?

In this kind of exercise, although the losing side will be punished, such as various corporal punishments, strengthened training, etc., the soldiers will also feel guilty in their hearts, but how can the learning effect compare to the virtual space exercise?

Death in the virtual space is not really death, but the pain and fear are real!

Even if this pain is weakened in a large part, a person can still have strong emotions when he sees his internal organs ruptured and his life force drains quickly.

A large part of this emotion was transformed into a desire for victory, which made them more aware of the cruelty of war, and they also learned to use their brains to grow into real soldiers.

Of course, there are some psychologists who feel that this kind of training is too cruel or may cause mental illness among soldiers.

This concern is also real, so there is a long interval between each exercise, at least six months of normal work and rest. And after each exercise, there will be a relevant psychological counselor to check the mental health of the soldiers...... If you really can't adapt to it, you can only quit the army.

The military achievements did not distract Zhang Yuan too much, and this is only a small achievement made by the entire civilization in recent years.

Seeing that the time was almost up, he got up from his position and set off for a major meeting of the Scientific Council.

When he arrived at the venue, he saw that it was full of scientists, researchers, technicians, and engineers. There are also many people who have entered the market one after another, finding their own places and sitting down.

"Guys, let's get straight to the point. This meeting is about the achievements made over the years. ”

"First of all, the construction of the Pelican transport spacecraft was completed, which passed the maneuverability tests six months ago...... This spacecraft can smoothly transport 120,000 people back to Gliese 581, which is the last return ticket, and if you miss it, you will never have a chance. ”

"Relevant personnel statistics and information reporting must be done well."

In the previous month's intention survey, there were still 120,000 people who hesitated and hesitated, they wanted to return to Gliese 581 a little, and they didn't want to.

Then, no matter how you choose, the Kunlun Mountain fleet will give the greatest support and will not forcibly keep it.

The wounds of war are permanent, and although they have now healed, the scars they have brought are still there.

On the other hand, the Pelican transport spacecraft will not only carry 120,000 returning people, but will also bring back the newly acquired knowledge captured from the Badites.

This knowledge includes the common sense of the universe, the application of supermagnetic-A materials, and subatomic science, which is a breakthrough for a third-level civilization, and it is a very natural thing to inform the base camp in the rear.

Zhang Yuan continued on stage: "...... Our fleet, in the future, will go to the trading market of the Rim Thai civilization to seek knowledge of faster-than-light communication and curvature navigation, which will probably take five hundred years, or even more than a thousand years! ”

"Therefore, this should be the base camp for the last time to report the information to the rear, and I hope that after they get this information, they can develop smoothly."

"The solicitation of letters from the private sector is also being solicited in an orderly manner, and the Pelican spacecraft is equivalent to a courier, and it is still very risky to use electromagnetic waves to communicate directly near the cosmic string route...... Only this very traditional means can be used. Fifty years should be back to base. ”

"The captain of the Pelican spacecraft is Mr. Hu Pan of the New Civilization Development Department."

The middle-aged man stood up from his position and bowed directly to all the councillors.

Then there is the supermagnetic-A material, and the latest fighter Haiyan space-IV fighter, which is the latest research and development, and is equipped with the latest model of interstellar ramjet launch.

The super engine in the first lab has been completed!

A simulation of a new-generation warship is displayed on the screen, including the latest electromagnetic kinetic weapons and ion cannon weapons.

“…… Regarding the performance of this fighter, as well as its price-performance ratio, whether it is worth mass production, or what kind of difficulties have been encountered. There is also the issue of the upgrading of the entire electromagnetic industry......"

"In this regard, I would like to invite Ye Junchang of the Military Technical Staff to speak."

The whole discussion was very intense, and the greater the magnetic field, the changes brought about were enhanced in all directions. Not only will the ion engine become faster and stronger, but weapons such as electromagnetic guns and ion cannons will be upgraded again.

According to simple calculations, if these technologies are fully implemented, the maneuverability of Type IV ships will reach 280% of that of Type III ships, and after the actual war, the battle loss ratio can reach 1:2 or even 1:3.

Staff Officer Ye said: "Theoretically, the Haiyan IV spaceship is already a mature third-level civilization fighter, while the Haiyan-III can only be regarded as a second-level civilization fighter, with a generation difference in between, and it is not uncommon to achieve such a battle loss ratio. ”

"The difficulty we face is that the technology is far from mature enough, the material of supermagnetic-A cannot be preserved, the energy consumption is huge, and it must be made and used, and the miniaturization of the entire generator has become the biggest problem...... At present, it is extremely expensive to generate a large magnetic field, and the scale of the device is too large to be miniaturized. ”

Even the Badit civilization itself has not solved this problem.

"In a word, the interstellar ramjet engine, at the current level, can only be installed on medium-sized spaceships and large spacecraft for the time being."

However, if it is installed on a medium-sized or large ship, the maneuverability generated will not be as terrifying, and it can only be regarded as a lick at best.

As a simple example, the Haiyan IV spacecraft can easily produce an overload of 8 g, and humans can only withstand it for a few seconds under this acceleration, but can Mount Kunlun withstand an overload of 8 g? Definitely not, with just 0.1g of acceleration, it can easily tear this ship apart.

Unless, as gravitational acceleration does, the force is applied precisely to each atom......

Because of these difficulties, after a meeting, everyone only decided to install a ramjet engine on one of the Falcon-class destroyers, try it first, accumulate some technology, and then conduct research on miniaturization.

Then the meeting decided to use the supermagnetic A material to install some electromagnetic shield generators in various locations in Kunlun Mountain.

Electromagnetic shield, as the simplest shield technology, is not strong in defense against various interstellar war weapons, but it is also a shield technology, no matter how much it is better than nothing.

What it can resist is mainly free ions in space. When the spacecraft is traveling at high speed, the friction between the walls of the spacecraft and these particles is extremely violent, causing the Kunlun Mountains to sail for a period of time, and it is necessary to stop to maintain the surface of the spacecraft, otherwise all kinds of instruments may be damaged.

But with the Electromagnetic Shield technology, it is undoubtedly possible to reduce this ion friction a lot, increase the maximum speed of the spacecraft, and reduce the number of maintenances.

That's a big boost.
