Chapter 445: One Man Becomes an Army (Part II) Two in One

Although the upper echelons of the military did not deliberately block the news under the instructions of the central government, most people could guess from the big move of evacuating the entire city of Shanghai that the number of monsters that appeared when the second magic tide descended would be far greater than that of the first demon tide. However, even the Shangjing General Commander's participation in the Nandu Military Region failed to make an accurate estimate, and only now did people know what the concept of "huge" was.

After the first batch of gathered "monster vanguards" were all eliminated, the density of monsters in Hongkou District was greatly reduced, but if the perspective was raised to the entire territory of Shanghai, it could be found that the number of cracks in the urban area of Shanghai did not decrease but increased, and during the period when the unmanned army intercepted and killed the monsters, countless monsters poured out of the cracks.

Thankfully, these monsters are clearly not organized and planned invading armies, but they always have to explore their surroundings out of curiosity about the new world when they arrive in Shanghai, whether it's high-rise bungalows, large LED screens, or telephone poles and street lamps on the streets, so until they get tired of playing, the things that can be seen everywhere in the daily lives of Shanghai residents can attract their attention.

But this does not mean that they will obediently stay in the city for a long time, it can be seen that the domain concept of some large monsters is very strong, and other monsters are never allowed to appear in their "new territory", if there is a weak monster breaking in, they will tear it apart or drive it away, if there is a stronger monster breaking in, most of them will choose to retreat, and then occupy a new territory, and drive out the weaker monsters in the territory.

The expelled monsters could only continue to spread outward, so the red patches representing the monsters on the electronic sandbox began to spread on the map, and the edges of the patches collapsed into dense red dots, and they were in a seemingly irregular expansion movement.

However, Shanghai's space is limited, and as the number of cracks and monsters continues to rise, it won't be long before the monsters that spread outward will begin to attack the defense line.

Soon after the two rounds of shelling, a new round of fighting broke out in the streets of Jiangwan Town, Hongkou District, and another group of monsters that had gathered to charge in the same direction for various reasons encountered head-on attacks.

As long as the UAV signal base station over the city is still there, the combat range and mobility of the intelligent machinery corps far exceed that of conventional troops, and the artillery regiment with relatively weak mobility does not need to move, and the range of dozens of kilometers with the unmatched computing power generated by the cooperation of supercomputers and super brains is enough to make them proud of the battlefield, after all, the enemy army is not a modern army with the same ultra-long-range precision strike capability, but a group of "deaf and blind" otherworldly creatures.

However, at this time, the large group of monsters migrating southeast from the streets of Jiangwan Town is no longer land creatures, but flying creatures with various wings, and most of them are social creatures, and hundreds of monsters are piled up in each flying queue, the most dense ones are like tropical fish swimming in the ocean, once other monsters rush into the queue to attack, they will scatter like balloon explosions, and then form a flying queue again.

To deal with these monsters that are at least 100 meters above the ground and can easily make three-dimensional maneuvers, the effective lethality of the artillery regiment is greatly reduced, and it is impractical to let the UAV corps intercept such an air army, compared to these flying monsters, the UAV is not only smaller, but also far from maneuverable, the weapons equipped with the reconnaissance UAV are difficult to kill monsters, and the number of armed combat UAVs is too small to form an effective interception.

Therefore, it is neither an artillery regiment nor a UAV corps that undertakes the task of interception, but a new type of intelligent machinery unit that has never been unveiled.

A convoy of unmanned all-terrain tracked transporters drove to the front of the monster's flight path, and then the mechanical sappers erected ten equidistant metal plates in a wide area, these heavy "big plates" looked like thickened solar panels, and the appearance did not look like precision instruments, only the researchers involved in the research and development knew that these heavy metal plates represented the world's top level of precision.

They are the "fiery eyes" that are specially designed to deal with small and medium-sized flying monsters.

Flying monsters in air combat and drones actually have similarities, most of the flying monsters are not worth mentioning at all compared to the size and speed of real fighters, but their "small", "slow", "weak" has become a headache for the defenders, because the traditional prevention and control system was created to deal with large air units such as fighters, bombers, and transport aircraft, and cannot be used to counter slow, light, and small air units like this.

Moreover, to use millions of missiles to fight these "big birds and small birds" is not enough to describe the degree of waste in killing chickens. It is feasible to intercept with a dense fire system composed of antiaircraft machine guns and antiaircraft machine guns, but the accuracy is not guaranteed, and it is inevitable that there will be fish that will slip through the net, and even if the most elite snipers of the whole army are brought in to form a second line of defense, they do not dare to guarantee that they will never miss.

Before capturing live bodies for quarantine inspection, no one can say what kind of reproductive ability these flying monsters have, and it is not known whether they carry mutated germs that have never appeared in this world, and letting any monster go may cause a heinous disaster.

With the use of passive radar and photoelectric tracking equipment of the new detection system, the total annihilation of flying monsters is no longer an unattainable goal, the detection network composed of a plurality of passive radars is enough to achieve a large area of small and medium-sized flying units detection, the dynamics of all flight units within the detection range will be captured by the detection network, the data is gathered to the processing center and then transferred to the command center, and then the anti-aircraft fire system to complete the countermeasures.

As hordes of flying monsters approached the air defense forces, four turret-shaped chunks turned their thick barrels with black holes and bomb bays that resembled burly arms, and fired first.

Structurally, they are similar to the 730 Guards gun, known as the Gatling gun, but they are different in size and have a barrel of up to 11 barrels, with a caliber of 23 mm instead of 30 mm.

Although the caliber is smaller, they are no weaker than the close-in defense guns installed on warships in terms of the destructive effect produced in actual combat, and when the command to track and fire is transmitted to the defense and control positions in the form of electric signals, it seems that four torches are lit in the night, illuminating the entire street.

The rate of fire of up to 10,000 rounds per minute meant that 166 or 167 shells were coming out of their chambers every second, so that the tongue of fire at the muzzle of the gun was continuous, and to the naked eye it was not like a cannon, but like a flamethrower, a jet lighter held up in the hands of a giant.

Four eleven-barreled cannons fired at the same time, and more than six hundred rounds flew diagonally into the air every second, and the torrent of metal easily tore through the monsters' flight queues.

The land cannon developed by the 01 base is not only far better than the 730 close defense naval gun, but also has higher shooting accuracy and multi-target engagement capabilities, if used in air defense and coastal defense, it can cause 96% damage to Mach 3 supersonic targets during the experiment, with the defense and flight speed of these group-flying monsters, it is absolutely unreasonable to hit such a barrage.

The four cannons were as impassable as a moat, and tens of thousands of tungsten core armor-piercing shells not only beat the monsters in the front row into pulp, but also tore the thousands of monsters that followed them into shredded corpses, and the broken corpses fell like a torrential rain, mourning all over the air.

The battle situation is in a crushing state, but the torch lit by the cannon cannot be burned forever, calculated with a maximum of 2560 rounds of ammunition per cannon after adding drums, the high rate of fire can only last fifteen seconds, and the monsters are obviously not directional moving targets without intelligence, they will not continue to charge forward after encountering a fatal blow at the front of the queue, the instinct for survival makes them scatter and climb upward, although it is impossible to leave the range of the cannon in time with their pulling speed, However, as the altitude increases, the density of the area begins to decrease, and even if the cannon continues to fire after reloading, it will not have the same lethality as before.

Fifteen seconds later, the four cannons were empty, and the fire ceased at the same time, and the other group of fully loaded cannons did not carry out the fire connection, but continued to wait, from this situation, a few spectators saw the inspection style of the commander of the Intelligent Machinery Corps: when the machine gun could not effectively kill the monster group, it was obviously capable of achieving a seamless connection of fire suppression, but chose to save shells - although the tungsten core armor-piercing shell is not as valuable as the missile shells used by the artillery regiment, the cost is much higher than ordinary rifle machine gun bullets.

At the same time as the cannon ceased fire, in the wide area behind the cannon, two hundred oddly shaped spears "came to life", the shape of these spears is somewhat similar to the sniper rifle, and the concept used is the UAV counter gun being developed, but unlike the electromagnetic suppression used by the UAV counter gun, the anti-aircraft gun uses 12.7 mm caliber armor-piercing shells.

Under their butt and gun carriage, an additional gun mount is installed, the gun body is firmly stuck on the gun mount, and the gun mount can be rotated left and right, or moved up and down according to the received signal command, theoretically able to cover the firing surface of 180 degrees, if the gun carriage is removed and an auxiliary gun mount is installed, the firing surface can be raised to 270 degrees or 360 degrees.

With a radar detection system to accurately locate flying units, and a strong artificial intelligence-led Zero-One base to process the collected data with almost no time difference, each spear has been endowed with a soul and has become a legendary shooter who has worn through the Yang at all times.

Various detection instruments around the position carried out on-the-spot measurements and recorded more than 30 environmental factors affecting the trajectory, such as wind direction, wind speed, air pressure, air temperature, and air humidity, into data, which were converted into zero-to-one information flows, and then poured into the data processing center.

After receiving the feedback, the intelligent gun mount quickly adjusts the gun body, using the gun as a line, placing it at a precisely calculated angle, and then fires.

It was clearly a sniper rifle, but it had the effect of an assault rifle, and when the tongue of fire was spewed, it seemed that two hundred big drums were being placed in the position, knock, knock knock, non-stop.

The drums are exciting, ushering in the appearance of the protagonist in the night.

A pillar of orange-red light, more solid than a searchlight, suddenly appeared in the night, and a few seconds later, a "big bat" with a body length of at least 10 meters began to fall in the sky, and the aerial drone clearly recorded everything that happened in these few seconds.

The pillar of light lit up from the staging base established by the Robot Force far behind, resembling a laser sword from an early science fiction movie, stabbing into the target's wings as soon as it appeared, and the large bat that drove away other monsters in the air seemed to foresee the danger, but no matter how fast it fled, it could not be faster than the speed of light.

The laser beam emitted by the ultra-high-power solid-state laser weapon has an energy density of 35,000 joules per square centimeter at this distance, and the high-energy laser is invested behind the wings of the large bat, rapidly melting the surface of its body, vaporizing and evaporating, while the vaporized material is sprayed outward, and the recoil force forms a powerful shock wave, tearing a shocking crack between its wings.

If this is not an organism, but an airplane or a missile, the surface material of the target will absorb heat and be heated and quickly softened, melted, vaporized and ionized, and when the deep temperature of the target is higher than the surface temperature, the vaporization process will be accelerated, and the increase in internal pressure will cause the target to explode.

In other words, if this is an aerospace aircraft or missile that has invaded the territory, it has become a fireball by this time.

The "big bat" located at a high altitude was not directly killed by this laser cannon, but the laser beam not only broke a hole between its wings, but also almost tore it apart, and after losing its ability to fly, it could only fall to the ground with a wail, and then fell into a piece of meatloaf.

Then, three more lightsabers came out of their sheaths and shone in the night sky.

In the general staff of Beijing, a major general surnamed Zhang jumped up excitedly and kicked over the chair; his image in the hearts of the world has always been kind and cordial, humorous, and he is loved by young people at the age of nearly 60 and as a military expert and general, but few people know that he is not only a professional mouth cannon player, but also an expert in military weapons theory and a leader in military equipment science.

He is a director of the Huaxia Military Future Research Association, an executive director of the Huaxia Society of Science, Technology and Information for National Defense, and deputy director of the Teaching and Research Department of Military Logistics and Military Science and Technology Equipment of the National Defense University.

Everyone said that he was in a situation of war, and always thought that no matter what he said, he was misleading other countries in their arms research and making foreign media make wrong judgments about China's military strength and armaments.

Perhaps intentionally or unintentionally, he did make some misleading, but who knows how much he hopes that the breakthrough in China's military science and technology he preached can come true every time he makes a "strategic fool."

Now, it's a dream come true.
