Chapter 169: Simulated Confrontation
Translator: EndlessFantasy Translation Editor: EndlessFantasy Translation
Now, however, the two respected commanders were actually chatting with this young man in a friendly manner.
The scene was enough to startle everyone.
They did not understand who this young man was.
Since the exercise was about to begin, the doubts in their hearts were destined to be unsolved.
There was a surveillance image at the center of the big screen in the command room.
The two teams of soldiers stood straight on the grassland, waiting for their leaders to distribute the weapons and vehicles for the exercise.
A round device was embedded in the chest area of the camouflage uniforms they were wearing.
The device could react with the ions in the demonstration weapons. Also, once the ions around the body reached a certain concentration, the device would be activated, and it would spray out smoke.
This indicated that the soldier had been completely eliminated and could no longer participate in the combat exercise.
Provided that they put on the camouflage suit with the device, they would be able to simulate actual combat situations as much as possible without any casualties.
The screen on the command room’s wall showed the two teams participating in the exercise standing on two sides.
Very quickly, a number of supply trucks that were loaded with weapons entered everyone’s field of vision.
Four cannons that could fire ions also followed the supply trucks from behind.
The equipment had been distributed.
Each of the red and blue teams had 15 members. Each team received two supply wagons loaded with weapons and two ion cannons with a range of more than 2000 meters.
The red team’s leader was a young man in his thirties with a crew cut. His skin had turned dark due to long-term exposure to the sun.
However, it could be seen from his eyes that this squad leader was a soldier with a tough heart and strong execution ability.
The blue team’s leader was younger, looking to be around 25 or 26 years old.
His eyes were bright, his nose was high, his lips were thin, and his jawline was clear. Through the surveillance camera, Wu mo looked at half of his face and felt that the class monitor of Team Blue looked like a popular star.
now, on behalf of the 3rd Military Region of North China, I announce that the confrontation exercise will begin immediately!
After the weapons and equipment were distributed, the leaders in charge immediately announced the start of the exercise.
Everyone in the command room was shocked and immediately turned their eyes to the LED screen that occupied an entire wall.
The squad leaders of the two teams immediately sent soldiers to drive the vehicles. At the same time, several people ran in the opposite direction with the cannons.
In the blink of an eye, not even a single person could be seen on the vast green grass.
this live exercise will last for three hours. We’ll win after eliminating all the people on the other side.
however, due to the complicated terrain of the exercise area, the red and blue teams have to send Scouts to investigate the enemy and set up a battle plan. After all, the equipment and resources of both sides are exactly the same. What they compete on is the combat ability of the members of both sides and the effectiveness of the battle plan.
Everyone turned their attention to the exercise that had already begun. At this moment, platoon leader Ren bin, who was standing under the LCD screen, immediately picked up the microphone and introduced the rules of the entire exercise to the guests present.
Although Wu mo had already understood, he still listened with great interest.
In the sky above the exercise area, a buzzing sound could be heard.
Drones with high-definition cameras flew into the air and chased after the two teams.
The first step of the mock battle was to set up camp.
After all, the supply wagons and cannons were very heavy and precious, and it was impossible to carry them everywhere.
And choosing a temporary camp was also a skill.
The red and blue teams were fighting in the exercise area within a ten-kilometer radius.
They had to ensure that the camp was well hidden and could not be detected in a short time.
After all, the maximum range of the ion Cannon was two kilometers. If they were exposed in advance, they might be completely annihilated in one shot.
The red team’s area had an endless range of mountains. The vegetation here was very dense, and with the help of the terrain, they could completely conceal their tracks.
The blue team area also had trenches and forests, which were also good for hiding.
It was very difficult to encounter close combat in a mock battle.
This was because there were many rifles and sniper rifles among the weapons issued for the exercise, and they were mainly for long-range shooting.
Because between the two areas was a desert that was hundreds of meters wide. If they walked straight up, they would be easily exposed. It was likely that they would be attacked before they could even see the enemy.
Through the images of the drones and the surveillance cameras, everyone in the command room knew what was happening in the exercise area.
They saw that the red team had already chosen a temporary camp. It was a low-lying area sandwiched between two mountain ranges.
There were dense trees and bushes around them, making their concealment ability extremely strong.
As for the blue team, they chose to set up camp in the depths of the forest.
Both sides quickly completed the first task. After that, they had to plan their battle and assign tasks.
The red team had arranged for two Scouts to wear clothes that could block thermal imaging detection, as well as combat equipment such as triangular stiletto and binoculars.
They took the lead and set out towards the surrounding mountain range, preparing to make use of the geographical advantage to investigate the blue team’s situation.
The class leader planned to split the remaining thirteen people into two groups.
One group would head to the desert border, ambush, and look for opportunities to kill as many as possible.
The other team contacted the scouts and prepared to set up cannons to provide long-range fire support.
In just 20 minutes, squad leader Fang of the red team had already arranged the tasks, and he didn’t pick out any mistakes.
Everyone in the command room nodded in agreement.
They praised the red team’s squad leader for his outstanding ability to adapt to the situation and arrange battle plans. He had already made preparations in such a short time.
it’s not hard for everyone to see that the strategy chosen by the red team is more stable. This way, not only can they find out the terrain of the red team in a short time, but they can also detect the movements of the blue team. It can be said that they have done a pretty good job.
The platoon leader, Ren bin, held the microphone and did his best to analyze the situation on the battlefield.
Wu mo, who was sitting in the first row, took a sip of water, but his eyes were still fixed on the big screen.
Zheng Shaowei, the head of the R & d Department, saw that Wu mo was engrossed in the movie and immediately asked in a low voice,”Comrade Wu mo, between the red and blue teams, which one do you think has better overall ability?”
Hearing this question, Wu mo frowned. He looked at the two busy teams on the big screen and thought for a moment, then said, ” “I feel that in terms of close combat ability, the red team should be slightly more outstanding, because they have four five star xiuzhe in their team, and their overall strength is stronger.”
however, because this is a simulated confrontation, everyone’s ability to withstand damage has been pulled to the same level. If the surrounding ion concentration is too high, they will be eliminated directly. So, it is still impossible to determine who will win.
