052 On a fictional battlefield
The day after the assembly, the entire reserve replenishment unit assembled in a specially allocated briefing room at the training centre.
After the customary process was over, Diao Youming began: "I am not a military commander, so theoretically speaking, I should not be here to preside over this briefing." But the military commander can't do without Ceres, so he can only leave the task to me.
"In order to avoid controversy in my judgment, I try to use a competitive format to determine who passes the assessment. All the links that need to be scored are scored by computer.
"I'm not going to test your basic skills, saying that the basic skills are not accurate, in fact, I'm not going to test most of the practical subjects, let alone take a knowledge-based written test."
Whispers rang out in the otherwise quiet briefing room.
"Quiet!" Diao Youming tapped the blackboard in the briefing room with a whip, and the electronic blackboard was knocked out of color, but it immediately returned to normal.
He continued: "Today is our first assessment, and the main content is to drive a small combat boat to simulate confrontation under a variety of preset battlefields! It is mainly based on single-machine confrontation, and two people in the same crew share points.
"Tomorrow we will have a two-on-two, and the day after tomorrow it will be a group battle. The day after tomorrow is an in-ship operation under the condition of gang jumping, the fifth day is a drill to attack an asteroid base, and the sixth day is a cruiser-level simulated confrontation.
"All the confrontations and drills are a point system, and the total score will be summed up at the end, half of the people! Note that half of the people will be screened out.
"Wang Ping'an, do you like to raise your hand so much when you don't have to ask questions?"
Wang Ping'an put down his hand: "Then I'll wait for the question session to ask." ”
Diao Youming pursed his lips and held back for a few seconds before asking, "Is there any problem?" ”
"What's the last day?" Wang Ping'an asked.
"On the last day of the holiday, you can go to the places you should visit, eat the things you should eat, record the greeting video for your home, and when you arrive at Ceres, you can only eat every day, and the communication delay with the Earth is much higher than here on Mars.
"And the locals of Ceres are so little, there is not as much fun on the Internet as Mars, and the online game will only be updated when the cargo ship brings a new version. The only fun there is to battle the pirates. ”
Wang Ping'an said "oh": "Got it." ”
"Any questions?" Diao Youming looked at the others.
No one raised their hands again.
Diao Youming: "Very good, Zhai Mountaineering, lead the team to the simulation training center, I have obtained the right to use the training center for seven days." ”
**
The simulation training center is set on the central axis of the space station, so there is only a weak simulated gravity - this gravity simulated by centrifugal force is smaller the closer to the central axis of rotation.
In fact, this kind of attention is not very necessary, because the simulation system can hardly reproduce the G-force when the combat boat accelerates, and after all, the virtual thing is virtual after all, and it can never replace the actual machine training.
However, on-the-ground training is not only costly, but also potentially dangerous, so it can only be the next best thing. It is said that the latest generation of human-computer interaction systems can already simulate acceleration in virtual reality by interfering with the human brain.
However, that is just a legend, and it should be far from practical.
The training center has a hundred Type 42 simulators, which can simulate all small space vehicles, from mobile engineering modules to small combat boats.
After Zhai Dengshan led the team to the No. 1 training ground where the Type 42 simulator was placed, he took out the tablet and began to fight in groups: "Today is mainly 1V1, theoretically each group should play 99 confrontations today, and the battlefield of confrontation will be generated by randomly extracting seeds from the simulator's map seed library."
"In addition, the computer will automatically balance, so there will be no more situations in one battlefield situation."
When Zhai Dengshan spoke, Diao Youming appeared in the general control room at the top of the No. 1 training ground, overlooking the entire training ground through the floor-to-ceiling windows of the general control room.
Wang Ping'an glanced at the general control room with a little distraction, but he missed a few words.
Zhai Dengshan: "Then that's it, people who don't have a partner can form a team on their own, or they can ask for computer advice. Those who have a partner can get on the simulator. ”
Angli: "Let's go. ”
Wang Ping'an: "Huh? ”
"You're distracted again!"
"Sorry, but we have to pick the simulator ourselves? Shouldn't a place be assigned? ”
Angli was about to reply, when someone next to her spoke: "Isn't this a famous scourge, you finally abandoned that noisy little dot and replaced it with a convex and backward partner?" ”
Wang Ping'an looked at the person who spoke with a hostile gaze, and then replied in a low voice: "Xiao Fang is dead." ”
The guy who came to provoke was embarrassed, and finally could only scratch his head: "Okay, blame me." Condolences change. ”
Wang Ping'an: "You don't have to force yourself, haven't you been shouting, saying that people like us will definitely die miserably?" ”
Angli probably saw that the two were about to quarrel, so she interjected and asked, "Who is this?" ”
"Forest, we call him Goki, is a fool who always looks at me unpleasantly."
"You have said that, there are more people in the whole college who don't like you, don't say it as if I'm the only one. It's normal for you to hate you, and you always show an idealistic look, which makes some people think that your nature is not bad. I understand, people like you are rotten inside and out!
"What idealism, it's just a disguise of rotten people!"
Wang Ping'an shrugged: "Yes, I know." ”
"Wait and see, unlike you who spent your time in the transport team, I have been on the guard, and I have actually dealt with 21 emergencies!"
Wang Ping'an: "How many of them were driving construction machinery while drunk?" Drove a combat boat to stop the running one-man work compartment, and after docking, he took off the person's helmet and let people blow on the alcohol test, right? ”
Forest: "Fuck you! ”
Zhai Dengshan interjected: "Enough! Who's more powerful on the simulator. I'll arrange for you to be the first to fight. ”
Forest: "I can't ask for it!" Watch me teach you a good lesson! ”
Wang Ping'an: "Hmph, you haven't won the mock battle with me at school." ”
"That was seven years ago! Orin, let's go! ”
As he spoke, the forest walked with his partner to the nearest simulator.
Wang Ping'an turned his head to Angli and said, "Let's go too." I think that emulator is good. ”
"Okay, let's go."
**
The interior of the Type 42 simulator is what the standard cockpit of the Space Force looks like.
All of the Space Force's small vehicles have this configuration inside, which greatly reduces the cost of astronauts adapting to new types of vehicles.
Wang Ping'an and Angli put on spacesuits and sat side by side in the simulator.
Angli laughed, "I thought about taking the silver star again." To be honest, I often dream about you driving a spaceship barehead and wearing only an oxygen mask. ”
Wang Ping'an: "So you want to say, I have become your Anima?" ”
"The ideal man in a woman's heart is called the Animus. Comrade Wang scourge, you are not good at learning. ”
"Hey, it's just a few words, just know the meaning. So what you just said, did you mean that you are in love with me? ”
"If you don't ask it so bluntly, maybe it's possible." Angli sighed, "Well, it's probably hard now, let's be comrades." ”
"What the hell, your version is wrong, you should play a straight ball, I'll pull ......"
As he spoke, the training ground engineer in charge of the support outside knocked on the window of the simulator: "Are you ready to start?" ”
Wang Ping'an gave a thumbs up.
So the engineer closed the outer door of the simulator, sealed the entire interior of the simulator, and then began to pump air, simulating the low-pressure state of the spacecraft in battle.
Then the entire cockpit began to shake, which was to test the simulator's dynamic reproducibility.
Angli asked, "You didn't take off your helmet and gloves this time?" ”
"Don't make a fuss, I'm going to fight 99 games today, I'm going to take off my helmet and gloves, and when I'm done with the fight, my hands are estimated to be necrotic, and I'm going to amputate my leg and grow a new transplant from a pig."
The next moment, the holographic projection outside the simulated cockpit came into motion, appearing as a realistic sky scene.
"At the beginning, I extracted the environment of the ruins of the space station." Wang Ping'an muttered.
"What's wrong with this environment?"
"It's a lot of variables." Wang Ping'an shrugged his shoulders, "If it's an environment like 'open track', it's basically a fight to find the enemy's radiation from the background radiation carefully, and if you find it first and fire first, you have a good chance of winning." But the ruins of the space station are different. ”
Wang Ping'an looked at the large amount of space station wreckage outside and continued: "This terrain basically depends on the adaptability. Turn off the radar. ”
Angli: "Huh? ”
Wang Ping'an was stunned when he saw her, and directly turned off the radar by himself - this should have been the duty of the extravehicular operator.
The simulator simulates the mechanical noise of the external radar antenna of a combat boat when it is folded.
Wang Ping'an: "There is so much debris, there is too much clutter from the radar, let's keep silent for the first time and float with the debris group." ”
As he spoke, he operated the virtual combat boat and pasted a piece of wreckage.
Angli: "Does that work?" ”
"Yes, the infrared signal of the body's heat dissipation will be blocked by debris. Although it was the first battle, everyone expected to see the passionate bayonet fight, but unfortunately, I had to choose a battle with a high probability of victory. Wait, fortunately, this is a simulated battle, and time will fast forward before the two sides find each other. ”
Angeli: "If that's the case, can't you tell if you've been discovered by the speed of time?" ”
"Of course you can, so this is a mock battle. The instant victory of the sneak attack in the actual battle. Wang Ping'an said with a smile, "But don't worry, that guy from Wumu and I have not won a simulated battle so far." Even if the rules of the simulation battle help him, it can't change the result. ”
Angli: "You don't hate him too, do you?" ”
"You're right."
As soon as Wang Ping'an's voice fell, the computer sent out a prompt sound, indicating that the body had received radar waves.
The display suddenly stopped fast-forwarding at the time of fast-forwarding and became normal.
