Chapter 279: 【Various Ways to Die Under Drones】(4k)
As the training side, Zhao Ming naturally couldn't arrange drones for them early on.
They had to experience this process in detail before being assigned to units using drones to fight against the opposing NPCs or the six major Blue Star federations.
In the plot.
Daxia Federation, 7th Special Operations Brigade.
At this time, the team led by Shen Yan had been scattered.
Mainly because a group of drones was dispatched on the opposite side.
Shen Yan had just escaped death.
On the other side.
Battalion Commander Liu Feng of the 1st Special Battalion was hiding in a trench.
The buzzing sound in the sky was like the Grim Reaper, hovering over this battlefield.
Liu Feng was pressed in the trench by the corpse of an NPC soldier, looking as if they had been killed together.
Liu Feng moved his body slightly, clutching the gun in his hand; although his heart was pounding, his mind had already been forced to calm down.
He quickly thought of a solution in his mind.
Suddenly.
The buzzing in the sky sounded rapidly, diving down!
The moment this thought flashed through his mind.
Liu Feng knew he was exposed, so he threw away the corpse covering him and raised the gun in his hand to shoot at the diving drone.
In his haste.
Bang!
One wing of the drone snapped.
Bang!
Another shot.
The drone suddenly shattered in the sky more than ten meters above him.
Before Liu Feng could show any joy on his face.
Boom!!!
A loud noise came from before his eyes.
The next second.
The whole world turned fire-red, a huge fireball filled his entire field of vision, and Liu Feng only felt a scorching and violent airflow rushing over.
Knocking him to the ground.
His mind buzzed for a moment, and then the whole world lost its color, falling into darkness.
Until a few seconds later.
Liu Feng, who had returned to the main interface, came back to his senses.
Dead.
Blown to death.
Damn!
Liu Feng's face was ugly, simply insane.
This explosion power.
What kind of explosives were they using? It was more than enough to blow up a tank.
And they actually used it to blow up people.
Liu Feng gritted his teeth, but he was also helpless.
Who would have thought that the opposing NPC troops would be so ruthless.
Logically speaking, this kind of suicide drone should be used to deal with tanks, based on the previous two times they were bombed.
These drones were at most more powerful than hand grenades.
That's why he thought about shooting them down.
After all, he had some confidence in his marksmanship.
Although the drone was small and couldn't be shot down from too far away, he was confident when it got closer; it's just that he didn't hit the center with the first shot.
Liu Feng estimated that if the first shot had hit the center.
The drone's altitude would have been higher, and maybe it wouldn't have blown him to death in one wave.
Now he could only wait to start again.
On the other side.
Antarctic Star Federation C Group Army, 1st Armored Brigade.
On the other side of the battlefield.
When the game started half a month ago, the 1st Armored Brigade, which had more than 20 tanks, now only had 3 tanks speeding on the plain.
The engine erupted with a beast-like roar, crushing over the bumpy dirt road.
Raising thick dust into the sky.
The exhausted voice of Mobile Corps Commander Zachary of the 1st Armored Brigade sounded from the communication channel: "Maintain formation, watch the woods on both sides... damn it!"
"There's a drone!"
"Accelerate! Accelerate to break away!"
"Release smoke!"
Mobile Corps Commander Zachary's shocked and angry voice sounded.
The driver was startled, immediately stepped on the accelerator to the end, the engine roared louder, and the tank lunged forward.
The loader was in a hurry to pick up the smoke bomb to prepare for loading.
But compared to the drone.
Everything seemed too slow.
The loader in the tank cabin had just picked up the smoke bomb.
Without any warning.
The roar of the engine also covered the sound of the drone.
Boom—!!!"
The violent explosion spread out.
Unlike the armor-piercing shell that directly penetrated the tank cabin, the suicide drone that hit the top of the tank was more like an iron fist smashing down.
At the moment the explosion spread.
The entire tank was blown down by the explosion impact.
And the Antarctic Star Federation soldiers inside the tank felt a loud noise like the destruction of the world.
In those terrified one or two seconds.
One could clearly see the tank collapsing and deforming from the top down.
Until the orange-red violent flames filled the tank cabin.
The perspective instantly fell into darkness.
Ahead.
The two tanks that were running wildly did not stop at all.
They stepped on the accelerator to the end completely.
And the fear in their hearts had reached a certain point.
Tanks.
These steel giants that swept the world in World War II.
Now they were so easily destroyed by a drone.
The cost of a tank ranges from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars, but that small drone... no matter how they think about it, the cost won't exceed a few hundred dollars.
Hundreds of dollars to exchange for millions of dollars.
Is this fighting a war?"
Isn't this just throwing money?"
Until the sky turned dark and the tank's fuel ran out, the two remaining tanks stopped.
The hatches on top of the two stopped tanks opened.
These few remaining Antarctic Star Federation soldiers climbed out, their uniforms already soaked with sweat, sitting on the tank to seize the time to enjoy a moment of peace.
Under the sunset.
The whole world seemed to have turned orange-red.
An Antarctic Star Federation soldier looked at the endless wilderness plain and the woods in the distance: "Where is this?"
"It feels so familiar."
The driver next to him took out a tattered map from his pocket: "Let me see..."
At this moment.
An Antarctic Star Federation soldier on the tank next to him slapped his thigh: "This sunset, this environment?!"
"This is Kursk, right!"
The soldier next to him was a bit confused: "Kursk?"
The driver holding the map looked at the map and said: "That's right."
"This is Kursk."
"I fought here before in the 【World War II】 series."
"I didn't expect this plot to be decades later."
"And we're fighting here again."
There are many soldiers on Blue Star who have played the 【World War II】 series, especially when it first came out and was explosive, almost every major battle had people trying to find ways to participate.
The Battle of Kursk was one of them.
The Antarctic Star Federation soldier on the tank next to him asked: "When was that in the plot?"
"1943, right."
"Now it's 2022."
"The plot is so fast."
"In the blink of an eye, 79 years have passed?"
"It's just that I didn't expect that after decades, this land would be at war again."
"Damn it."
The tank driver next to him looked at the map and said: "It's not just 79 years."
"Our current plot has already passed the 2022 node."
"So."
"This land has been at war again after more than 80 years."
Everyone looked at the beautiful sunset, not knowing what to say for a while.
Suddenly.
The tank driver who was looking at the sunset noticed something stuck behind the tank the moment he lowered his head.
He bent down and pulled it out.
Everyone was attracted and looked over.
Seeing the thin stick in the tank driver's hand, they couldn't help but be curious: "What is that?"
The tank driver flipped through the stick in front of him and said: "It should be a bracket for some part of the drone."
"It should have been stuck here when we sent the Mobile Corps Commander to the sky just now."
Hearing this.
Everyone laughed inexplicably: "Oh."
"Mobile Corps Commander to the sky... hahahahaha."
"Sorry, I can't help it."
"Damn, why is it so funny."
"Hahahaha, fortunately, this is just a plot, the Mobile Corps Commander didn't really die."
"But this is a livestream, there are people watching outside."
"..... hiss!"
"Pretend I didn't say anything!"
Everyone laughed nonsensically, then suddenly stopped, feeling a bit inexplicable, but this also made their tense hearts relax a lot.
The tank driver flipped through the stick and found the handwriting on the edge: "There is writing on this too."
The soldier next to him asked: "Where was this thing produced?"
The tank driver looked at the familiar font on it and read it out: "yi."
"..."
Outside the plot.
The soldiers of the Daxia Federation have retreated one after another.
In the plot projection projected in the conference room.
Only Shen Yan and a few soldiers in places not discovered by drones were still alive.
The others had already arrived in the conference room.
Watching together with the others.
Chief of Staff Qu Guang looked at the projection, then looked at the 1st Special Battalion, Battalion Commander Liu Feng, and then the 1st Company Commander, 2nd Company Commander...
Basically, all the cadres of the 1st Special Battalion were present.
Qu Guang said: "Tell me, what are your thoughts?"
The officers of the 1st Special Battalion looked at each other, and Liu Feng said: "To be honest."
"This drone is a bit outrageous."
"We can only find a way from the electronic warfare aspect."
"But the plot didn't arrange for us to have units or equipment in this regard. If we fight according to past experience, we will really die without a whole corpse."
Hearing this.
The soldiers of the 1st Special Battalion who had just retreated from the plot nodded deeply.
It's just too outrageous.
Originally in the 【World War II】 series, they trained and progressed so much.
Even in the 【Global Counter-Terrorism】 DLC, they could fight back and forth with those NPC troops.
But it's only been 20 years."
In 【2022】, everything has been overturned and started over."
The tactics and methods learned before have almost no effect."
Trenches?"
Even if you dig them in all directions, it's useless. "Earth" doesn't need to bomb wildly now. The opponent opens a small drone."
Buzz, it flies over."
Even if there are cat-ear holes in the trenches, it's useless."
They look closely."
A dive, directly into the cat-ear hole."
Boom, like popping popcorn."
A bunch of debris sprayed out of the cat-ear hole..."
Steel torrent?"
If you dare to play like this, that's great."
How much does a tank cost, how much does an armored vehicle cost, ranging from hundreds of thousands to millions of dollars."
Even if it's not these."
An ordinary military transport truck costs at least tens of thousands of dollars."
What about the opposite side?"
A drone."
The cost is hundreds of dollars, and if you catch a wholesale place, it might be even lower."
The only valuable thing might be the explosives mounted on it."
A 2 million dollar tank, a small drone charges... Boom—!!!"
Directly turned into scrap iron."
This fighting style."
I'm afraid even the American Federation can't hold it."
Trenches can't stop it, steel torrents can't stop it, street fighting... that's even more nonsense."
Before, it required room-by-room fighting, or even artillery coverage."
To destroy the enemy's effective strength."
But now... as long as they know which floor you are on, a few drones."
Buzz, they rush in."
Boom! Boom! Boom! Boom!"
Directly taken away."
And just the size of this drone."
It's not much bigger than a palm, and after leaving a distance, it's basically a small black dot."
Unless you wait for it to rush to your front, you can't hit it."
But letting the drone rush to your front, basically you're gone."
And the original bunkers and the like have almost no effect when facing drones."
The drone flies to an altitude of hundreds of meters, can easily overlook any movement on the battlefield below, and knows exactly where people are."
But the distance is too far, and you might not even find it."
Until the drone flies over your head and dives down, you can hear the terrifying whistling sound."
Then..."
Naturally, the screen goes dark."
During this time."
At least 70% of the soldiers in the 1st Special Battalion were eliminated by drones."
There are all kinds of ways to die."
But there are no cases of counter-killing."
In fact, you can't counter-kill."
Even if you shoot down the drone, you just shoot down a drone, and you haven't caused any damage to the opposite side, just lost a few hundred dollars."
But if you don't shoot it down, you're the one who dies."
Qu Guang also looked at the projection, thinking."
But after thinking for a long time, he shook his head: "The cost of the drone is too low."
After thinking for a long time, Qu Guang could only sigh."
There is no other way."
The fact is that the cost is too low, too low. Compared to a tank worth millions of dollars, the drone is really cabbage price."
A 2 million dollar tank, if you buy cheap drones, use the simplest "swarm" tactics, calculated at 1,000 dollars per drone."
"The price of one tank can buy 2,000 drones."
"And these 2,000 drones, carrying bombs, even if only one-third hit, will destroy hundreds of tanks, trucks, and other large equipment on the opposite side."
"The loss on the other side in this wave will be more than tens of millions of dollars."
"This is just dealing with equipment."
"What about people?"
"A 1,000 dollar drone, a dive down, and the child that the mother raised for ten or twenty years is gone just like that."
"This ten or twenty years of hard work is more than 1,000 dollars."
"But this thing has a low technical threshold."
"There are also soldiers on the Blue Star side who have picked up drones that dived down but didn't explode, only the size of a plate, with extreme weight bombs hanging on them."
"They can be disassembled casually, and the battery inside is not enough for it to last half an hour."
"It's a proper consumer-grade drone."
"The kind that ordinary people buy to play with, but this thing, plus a bomb, can easily take away a person's life."
"And it has diverse functions."
"Integrating reconnaissance, surveillance, fire strike, electronic interference, communication relay, and psychological warfare."
"Find and destroy."
"Can launch attacks from any unexpected place."
"Even if you are facing the enemy blocking the front here, a drone might fly over from the direction of the friendly forces behind you and bomb you with a dive."
"And the countermeasures are limited."
"Because complex electromagnetic interference might affect our own communication."
"The soldiers on the Blue Star side are also worried."
"If this continues, there's no way to fight."
"How can the 【2022】 war on Earth be so outrageous? It evolved too fast, right?" ===== CHAPTER 280 =====
How could the wars of Earth in 【2022】 be so absurd? Isn't the evolution a bit too fast?
