After saying that, Wu Mo felt that his speech was a little inappropriate, so he added another sentence.
“In reality, in such simulated confrontation, the shooting ability has a greater impact on the battle situation. The Divine weapons and holy armor they wear are basically useless in a battle at this distance.”
After hearing Wu Mo’s opinion and explanation, Minister Zheng Shaowei nodded slightly.
At this moment, he felt even more that Wu Mo was different from other blacksmiths who did scientific research.
Wu Mo’s judgment of the battle situation was more acute, and he could better control what the cultivators on the front line needed. He was completely different from those pretentious and useless blacksmiths who only knew how to pile up data.
In the command room, many of the invited guests began to discuss with their friends who were sitting next to them as Ren Bin explained.
They wanted to know who would win in the actual battle.
As time passed in the exercise area, the members of both teams moved toward the center of the desert.
At that moment, the two scouts lying on the highest peak of the red zone discovered a team of soldiers in the Blue Zone several miles away with their binoculars.
The soldiers of the blue team were currently marching through the forest. There were a total of seven people.
However, the two scouts were too far away from the blue team’s soldiers. They could not see the other party’s appearance or the equipment they were carrying.
However, he had to report to his superior if he found traces of his opponent.
Soon, one of the scouts took out a walkie-talkie and reported the information he saw to the camp.
On the other side, the red team, which had arrived not far from the desert, received the message from the camp and immediately began to attack.
It did not take long for the first shot to explode in the Blue Zone.
This shot was the result of the tacit cooperation between the scout, the camp, and the team. It hit the blue team’s hiding spot from 1.7 kilometers away.
Although the first shot did not cause any casualties, it dealt a heavy blow to the blue team’s morale. At the same time, the first victory also put invisible pressure on the blue team’s scouts.
The goal was to tell the other party that their scouts were not good enough and could not find out where they were hiding.
At this moment, in the Blue Zone, the first team’s formation was completely disrupted.
Although the ion cannon was fired at a distance of more than ten meters away from them, the ion concentration still caused the devices on the chest of the two soldiers to react.
Now that it had almost been activated, it was equivalent to residual blood. If he was injured again, he would be completely out of the game.
“Retreat!”
The leader of Team Blue’s first team immediately gave the order. He lowered his voice, afraid that he would be discovered by Team Red.
While the team was retreating, the second cannonball landed again, but this time it was 50 meters away, so it didn’t affect them.
However, as the blue team’s second cannonball was fired, the red team also began their counterattack.
One of the cannoneers from the blue team had analyzed the approximate area of the enemy’s ion cannon based on the two shots.
He immediately fired back.
Four hundred meters away in the desert, the sound of artillery shells rumbling and explosions continued. The sound of bullets tearing through the air was also fully transmitted to the command room.
Looking at the image captured by the drone and the red team hurriedly changing locations with their ion cannons, everyone couldn’t help but sigh. The blue team’s cannoneers ‘analysis ability was too strong.
The two sides were clearly separated by several kilometers, but the blue team’s cannoneers were able to analyze the enemy’s specific location through the two shots fired by the enemy. This made one sigh with admiration at the enemy’s powerful techniques.
They had clearly been the first to reveal their position, and they had been in the weaker south. However, because of the cannoneers ‘counterattack, they had completely reversed the rhythm.
“Not bad, this blue team cannoneer is very skilled.”
“He’s indeed very powerful. I’m afraid it’ll take many years of training to master such calculations.”
“It seems like the outcome of this battle drill is still unknown.”
“Who would’ve thought that the red team, which had the upper hand earlier, would lose the initiative to attack because of the extraordinary performance from the blue team’s cannoneers? This battle situation is really confusing.”
Everyone began to analyze the situation and enthusiastically discussed the current battle situation.
At this moment, in the exercise area, as the locations of the two forces were exposed, the battle was extremely intense.
At the same time, there were constant explosions. Because it was an ion cannon that could not be seen or touched, it did not affect the vegetation in the area.
Of course, it was not just the troops holding the ion cannons at the front.
There was a team of snipers hidden on both sides of the forest.
The snipers seemed to have blended in with their surroundings, leaving only a Black Barrel outside.
They did not move at all, staring at the optical scope on the sniper rifle.
Unless they were 100% sure, they would not shoot easily.
It was because it was extremely dangerous to expose one’s location in such an environment.
Of course, only the soldiers were not aware of their positions. The distinguished guests in the command room could see them clearly through the surveillance cameras and drones.
“It’s been hard on these snipers. They usually lie down in one place for hours without moving.”
“To protect the country and defend the border, these soldiers are the soul of our Nine Provinces.”
“I think I see a few snipers in a psychological battle. I don’t know which side will make the first move.”
Hearing the discussions around him, Wu Mo had a similar thought.
The training for these soldiers who were going through the combat drill was really too hard. Whether it was the scouts who provided information for the entire battle or the snipers who accompanied the fallen leaves, everyone had put in their effort and never said a word of hardship.
He had great respect for these soldiers.
He thought, ‘They are indeed worthy of being the soldiers of our Nine Provinces. They are indeed unyielding and never give up!’
Just as he was lost in his thoughts, Company Commander Zhang, who had finished receiving the guests not far away, suddenly walked towards him and sat down on his left.
As a result, the company commander in charge of the first company sat on his left, and the two commanders of the Armament Department sat on his right. He completely became the focus of the audience.
“Good Morning, Company Commander Zhang.”
Wu Mo waved his hand in greeting.
Zhang Jianfeng nodded and lowered his voice. “Comrade Wu Mo, I wonder if you know about the equipment worn by the blue and red teams?”
Seeing Company Commander Zhang’s sudden question, the two commanders sitting on Wu Mo’s right immediately understood that Zhang Jianfeng wanted to discuss the military affairs of the 3rd MR with Wu Mo.
The two ministers looked at each other and immediately fell silent.
They could not wait for Wu Mo, who could make Invisibility Armor, to provide the latest equipment for their military region.
How could he stop them?
“Company Commander Zhang, I’m not too sure. But judging from the type of clothes they’re wearing, it should be some kind of light battle suit,” Wu Mo said with uncertainty.
