In the Ural River basin, in an underground city connected to the hills, a meeting of the supreme rulers of Atlantis is being held, and the people of Atlantis are consulting more and more often in order to deal with the increasingly dire situation in the world. The reason is the war, and the current battlefield is simply too large.

In terms of battlefield area, it is comparable to a battlefield on the ocean, but with the amount of mechanical transportation, transportation on land is more than 100 times more difficult than transportation on the sea. On the ocean, ships of 10,000 tons rely on the buoyancy of the ocean to steadily transport large quantities of materials to destinations thousands of miles away. However, on land, the train carries the largest capacity. In the process of carrying per unit length, the amount of wear and tear of the carrying machinery is almost the same as that of the ship.

If it is other carriers, such as tracked vehicles, the carrying capacity of off-road trucks with large tires. If there are no workers in the field to form a maintenance field for maintenance, then it can only be sent to the production line, and the flaw is detected by a fixed instrument on the production line, and then it is fixed on the bracket and disassembles all the parts step by step with a manipulator and then replaces the broken parts.

Well, what do you say and people are flexible, like the kind of robot like the Terminator T1000, why can't it go to the battlefield to replace human work. Hehe, if machines can be comparable to humans in terms of flexibility and perception so easily, why are half of the lieutenant generals in the evolution battlefield forced to the road of genetic technology to design organic combat weapons that are more flexible than machines?

As for the concept of attrition on land, there is a saying in the army in the 21st century that a tank is equivalent to one gram of gold if it is on standby for one minute, but in fact, according to the cost of fuel, mechanical wear and tear, and manual repair costs, there is more than that. Note that you just stand by if you want to climb over obstacles, such as jumping over a concrete pier or something, wading through water, or running over a tree through the jungle.

In the game, in strategy games such as Red Alert, tanks are indestructible, tanks can fly kites, and tanks break through defenses like sharp knives. Tanks and other mechanized troops are all sorts of commanders. Well, as for the actual situation, it's a bit handsome but three seconds

For the tank there must be such a concept, this is an offensive weapon, an offensive weapon with all kinds of advantages. But on the march, taking a tank of the 21st century as an example, it is theoretically possible to march 400 or 500 kilometers with a full tank at a time. And in reality only a hundred kilometers can be marched.

Taking the Zhu Rihe military exercise as an example, the 96 tanks of a brigade ran 230 kilometers in two days and nights, and lay down 40 tanks and could only repair 15 vehicles. A brigade should have more than 120 tanks if it is a tank brigade, and more than 90 tanks if it is a machine infantry brigade.

There is also a data, the Leopard 2 tank, which runs a hundred kilometers and consumes 1000 liters of fuel. On average, one liter of fuel per 100 meters. The above is just mechanical, as for tank crews. Running a hundred kilometers and bumping a hundred kilometers in the noise of the tank, then it is not that you can climb out of the tank yourself, and you need the help of others to tow out of the tank. It is almost a return to the medieval situation when heavy cavalry wore armor and needed human assistance.

The above is an approximate situation in which a heavy tank retains its combat capability on the march. Of course, if it is a lighter wheeled combat vehicle, Humvee and other armored jeeps, it can still maintain its combat effectiveness after a long march than a tank. Even so, the battlefield now faced by the Lantes was not Eastern Europe, not the Gulf of the Middle East with its maritime supply lines, but the vast Northwest, stretching from the center of Asia to Northeast Asia.

The Rand's tanks don't burn oil, but the electric drive machinery is also subject to wear and tear. And now air supremacy cannot be achieved in the air. Conduct an airdrop to replenish supplies. That's right, the current mechanized corps of the Lantes is in the defensive positions of the loess region that can be hit at any point, and eats. However, there are no chrono teleporters in this world. The tank is handsome in an area for a few days, and then it has to wait to be fed.

The biggest enemy of the Lante army now is the friction between the tracks and the yellow sand of the Gobi. Long marches in friction. The army of the Lantes has become more and more lightweight, and the design has gradually begun to be simple, and the style has gradually changed from the configuration of local tyrants to the Soviet-style configuration - durable.

Rao is so, on the North Asian combat map in front of the current Rand Evolution officers, a concave and convex Rand has been carved out in the Western Regions, and now faces this front surrounded by a large arc from Tibet, Gansu and then Mongolia. In order to defend the results of this area, in order to protect the sea of Yibohai can become an organic production area. The Lantes hit a large number of combat units. In North Asia, radiation contamination zones are relied upon for protection.

Three days earlier, however, the radiation contamination zone had been breached. Unlike this year's harassment, this was a massive breakthrough in which there were at least twenty-four attacks in three days. First, there were a large number of smog-making rockets that obscured a large area of the sky, and then there were rockets fired in a mixture of sub-bombs.

On the land of North Asia, the smoke of nuclear gunpowder from explosions erupted one after another. From military bases half-buried underground, to railway lines and railway stations in North Asia, from populated cities to factories with roaring machinery, a single shot, as long as a nuclear shell explodes, a strong light blooms within a kilometer. The blast wave will flatten standard civilian buildings within a radius of 150 meters, causing incapacitating damage to electrical machinery and life targets within a 75-meter radius of military buildings. Leaving behind nuclear dust that is difficult to clear.

What's more, sometimes there is no need for jamming bombs at all, because the laser defense system is very expensive, and the city factory targets are too large, and at this stage, the laser defense system has no chance to fully defend at various points in Siberia.

Therefore, the large map of North Asia, turning northeast from the Tianshan Mountains, and the red flashing points indicate that the Lantes are now attacked again;

Blazing Feather looked at the map and said to his teammates, "What is our problem now?" Officer Mao Ziyan said sullenly: "There are too few people, there are too few people to serve the machine, this battlefield is too large, and the machines we use for combat are already overloaded." With today's material properties, this is simply unavoidable. ”

Major General Mikhail has spoken little since he defected to the Lantes. But now he couldn't help but answer the difficulties he encountered in the north, because Mikhail was very familiar with the current war situation, and in the 541298 theater of operations, Mikhail had not fought with the evolved officers of the Son of Heaven League along the way, unless there was a nuclear war, in a conventional war, once the war in the north dragged on, it would inevitably be a devastating blow to the north.

Since mechanization, the advantage of the more populous side in this conventional combat has become more and more apparent. Because of the mechanical life, if the mechanical occlusion is tightly fitted, the life can naturally be extended, for example, the train, the friction between the steel wheel and the rail is small, the bite is tight, and the train goes directly to thousands of kilometers The machinery is good. But when the tracked vehicle travels in the desert, the friction between the tracks and the earth, the transmission of the steel wheels of the combat vehicle, and the suspension of the vehicle are all worn out in this process of imprecise engagement with the earth.

This is not a matter of materials at all, the metal materials that can be smelted on the earth are, after all, materials on the earth. Mechanical failures are inevitable, and now such large-scale mechanical failures can only be eliminated by people. The Rand's highly automated legions are consumed alive in the complex and vast depths of the terrain.

This is not a battle at all, a problem that can be solved, as long as the forces of the Son of Heaven Alliance in the south give up hundreds of thousands of square kilometers of the stage when attacking, run to other territories to save the threat, and trick the mechanized troops into dispatching one, it is equivalent to winning a small half of the battle. And mechanized troops could not stay for a long time. Once stopped. The troops that slow down will fall into the encirclement.

This is the 541298 theater of operations, and Mikhail's forces are afraid of East Asian civilization. If we can't take and annex the East at once, then we can only take the ice-free ports of the East as the highest goal. Wage war on this largest front ever seen on Earth. Mikhail is now tempted to ask what the hell is going on.

The Lantes looked at Mikhail with embarrassment on their faces. The topographic map of the Earth in the Rand Theater shows that the Indian subcontinent is connected to Indonesia, and the currents at the equator of the Indian Ocean do not pass through the Philippines and the Strait of Malacca due to the action of ocean currents. Instead, go north. The land of China is a tropical rainforest climate, except for primitive fishing nets, primitive tribes that can domesticate wild beasts, there is no civilization, and naturally we do not know the geographical pattern of civilization in the 541298 war zone.

The time gap between the parallel worlds of the two theaters is at least 50,000 years. When the old civilization of the world declined, it left room for the latecomers to move forward, and the once barbaric condensed the will of civilization today.

Blazing Feather said, "Now we have all contact with the south cut off. The war is going on now. We can't get out of this quagmire for the time being, but judging by the recent captives. One thing needs our attention. ”

Blazing Feather brought up another scene, which was in a cell, some Aspirant soldiers who had lost consciousness in battle, and were sent to the laboratory. Blazing Feather said: "The southern force is called the Loess Region, and now the supreme ruler on the opposite side is a new human named Zhao Jingwen, and the specific age is in line with the time period when the Evolution Officer came to this world. ”

Speaking of this, Blazing Feather said slowly: "Them, their wounded soldiers are difficult to capture, even if the captives are often seriously injured by neutron radiation, they seem to have resigned themselves to their fate and consciously ended their lives. Of course, these soldiers were more aware of radiation sickness, and we used the truth agent to make them say some useful information in bits and pieces, which was terrible to put together. ”

Blazing Feather's eyes showed anxiety that could not be hidden, and said: "The soldiers who fight with us are sub-humans in this world, from soldiers to logistics systems, from officers to factory soldiers, they are all sub-humans, and their intelligence level has naturally reached the level of sub-humans. They are intelligent, emotional, and competent as the foundations of industrial civilization. ”

It was like the coldest wind in the Arctic blowing through the venue. A Rand officer couldn't help but exclaim: "This is the ability of the lieutenant general of the remts, they are already mass producing workers." The major generals exclaimed. It's a sense of uneasiness.

In Remut's lieutenant general rank, it is possible to modulate cyborgs, combine genes to produce civilians with a certain lifespan, like an assembly line for mechanized chickens, a large number of naked humans come down the production line, are implanted with control chips, and work for their gods, that is, the Rand elite, building machinery to maintain industrial production at the low end of the industry. At this stage, the Rand people have eliminated exploitation, production has been fully automated, and those that cannot be automated are handed over to the biochemical people to work, the biochemical people are not human beings without human rights, and there is no need to pay attention to any thinking and thinking. Then destroy.

How are the major generals of the Rand, who have been promoted to lieutenant general by nanomachinery, not afraid. Although the social order in the loess area is not like this, the entire technology has begun to cross the barrier, and once these technologies are handed over to a Remte, even if this Remt fails the assessment, he will forcibly lay the foundation for promotion to major general.

It's just that the Rand people don't know that all the chains of knowledge about genes in the Loess Region are not in the hands of one person, but in the hands of all the aspirants of the surname. And it is not a few high-level executives who continue to promote the improvement of this technology, but the aspirants of the whole society, collecting data like a stream meeting the sea. It can be said that the loess region is now in the midst of a big explosion of knowledge in terms of genetics. The surging power of its evolution. It is absolutely impossible to appear on the Remut historical line, unless cyborgs are given human rights and responsibilities.

Human identity, human responsibilities and rights, this connotation of things, involves the expression of emotional complex information. Only by comparing the heart to the heart, the unique tone, expression, and every move can be conveyed. This is what parents convey to their children. If you can express your feelings, you can make them digital. That's a lot of data. The most advanced artificial intelligence of the 21st century is still not capable of concretely expressing human emotions.

Fear, the Rand people are now only afraid of technology, and Mikhail in addition to the fear of this technology, faintly feel a kind of extreme ominous, people in the same war zone can feel this kind of silence, the same emotional civilization of human beings, can understand the mountains behind this technological progress.

In the fear of the Lantes, Blazing Feather continued to pour a scoop of oil and said: "The captives we captured are very heroic, because they know that in our hands, there is no possibility of survival, and only by returning to the loess region can they live, and the south now has an effective means of healing the cells of the body damaged by radiation. We are now facing an army led by veterans, and now the soldiers who unleashed nuclear bombs on us are experienced. ”

Instantly, the entire hall fell silent. In the silence, Mikhail's mind echoed his somewhat psychedelic question: "They actually got through." ”
