Chapter 788: The flames of war (V)
Drones are Latveria’s most loyal scouts.
Thanks to the ultra-high-precision hand-made capabilities brought by prosthetics, Latvia can already manufacture the Peregrine II drone. This drone was designed by Atlas Group and has been proven on the African battlefield. of its ability.
The excellent aerodynamic shape design allows this fixed-wing drone to cruise at high altitudes and at high speeds. The powerful visual processing system is enough for the AI processor to automatically identify abnormalities and conduct continuous observation.
Through the efforts of local people, namely Christopher's Latvian research team, these fixed-wing drones now have a bird-like appearance. Through special stealth layers and appearance designs, most radar and military identification systems will recognize them as birds.
Peregrine falcons circle the skies over Latvia, bringing the latest border news to Lille:
".Military forces of the Eastern Entente are about to enter the border."
Latvian border
For Latvians, this concept is almost equivalent to the basic knowledge of modern science and engineering. In the past, this concept hardly existed in the mind.
The land area of Latvia does not exceed 100,000 square kilometers, of which only 28,000 square kilometers are inhabited and habitable plains and plateau areas. The rest are all uninhabitable areas such as mountains, forests, etc.
Most local people spend their entire lives on the run. Rare livestock is used to carry goods, and most of the time they migrate by foot.
Almost no one can go to the border of this country. Those who really go to the border and leave the country have to go to the other extreme——
Eastern Europe is not a stable region. If it is unstable, it will not have the mood or ability to accept a group of illiterate illegal immigrants. Moreover, these places are inherently xenophobic.
Protect borders and homeland?
This is simply a fantasy. Latvians don’t even have the concept of land: the land belongs to the lord, not them.
Click, click, click.
Horses equipped with enhanced prosthetics move at high speeds on mountain roads, tirelessly, unstoppably, stealthy and fast.
[Name: Steel-framed War Horse]
[Description: The limbs, back, and part of the head have been replaced with prostheses. The horses are also equipped with a horse-specific exoskeleton, which not only improves durability, load-bearing capacity, and impact resistance, but can also adapt to rough terrain through electromagnetic buffering devices. 】
[On flat terrain, the sprint speed of a war horse can reach 80km/h, and particularly outstanding individuals can exceed 100km/h. It can also maintain an average speed of 35~50km/h in complex terrain. 】
[The maximum load capacity can be 300~350 kilograms. It uses an artificial digestive tract system to absorb energy from biomass and is loaded with high-energy graphene batteries for energy storage. 】
[Durable control is carried out through micro-infusion, cooling gel, horse stimulants, and internal environment regulation systems to relieve muscle pressure and ensure vitality and endurance. In extreme cases, it can last for more than 3 days, depending on individual levels. 】
Because there is no complete industrial system, it is very difficult for Latvia to manufacture cars. It is difficult for European civilian cars to meet the needs of fighting in such complex terrain.
The steel-framed war horse is a product created by Christopher by referring to the current situation and successfully applying the knowledge in his head and the equipment at hand.
The performance of this kind of war horse is almost equivalent to that of normal mechanized troop vehicles, and it is even better in terms of flexibility. More importantly, it is more in line with the local people's perception:
Let them drive and they'll have to learn from scratch, but let them ride a horse
Horses to them are like high-performance cars in the eyes of some engine enthusiasts in modern society. Maybe they don't have them, but once they have them, their learning ability will definitely increase exponentially.
The performance of the first generation of steel-framed war horses is very superior, but the second generation will be even better: the second generation of war horses will undergo prosthetic body domestication and tactical training from the foal age, and will be more suitable for advanced prosthetics.
Cross-species transgenic technology may also be applied in the future.
Steel is better, but by the time these first warriors crush the enemy, the steel-framed warhorse will become more than just an under-resourced solution, it will make sense.
The never-before-seen scenery kept flashing in the eyes of the preparatory pilots: It turns out that this is also their country, this is also their land.
[Johnny: The war horse travels through sleepy villages, through mist-filled woods, and across vast plains]
[Johnny: The stone tablet at the entrance of the village is engraved with yellowing inscriptions, withered leaves rustle under the horses' hooves, and the mountains rise in the distance. This journey is for those who have been fleeing all their lives and fighting against the owner of this land. Say, it's like a dream. 】
[Johnny: The dream even made them forget that this was a journey of life and death, but they felt inexplicably reluctant to leave this strange and familiar land in their hearts, as if every ray of air and trees was calling them. 】
Perhaps this reminded Johnny of the past: he had the opportunity to see various parts of the Berry Country only after he served in the military. Unfortunately, the land he saw was already scarred.
The scarred land made Johnny more and more angry, angry that the world was rotten to the core, angry at the cruelty and brainlessness of politicians and capitalists, and even angry at the numbness of people in the city:
When he was deceived into becoming a soldier and rolled in the mud, those people were still watching Mewtwo masturbating at home.
Although Lil thinks Johnny is an uncultured thug, artists are indeed different. When they don't swear, they still have some skills.
And I don't know if it's an illusion, this guy seems to swear less and less, or he swallows it in his mind and doesn't say it out loud.
"There are many enemies." Lille's voice was as hard as iron. "Multiple countries have united to attack us. This coalition includes well-trained soldiers, armored vehicles, tanks, and even aircraft."
"From what the drone saw, the first batch of leading troops has 10,000 to 12,000 regular infantry, with about 200 infantry fighting vehicles and 300 armored personnel carriers assisting the attack."
"In addition, long-range firepower such as self-propelled howitzers and rocket launchers have been confirmed, which means they have artillery units: in the worst case, professional artillery units."
"Armed helicopters are visible, at least 11, and the army may be equipped with unmanned attack aircraft. In the worst case, fighters and bombers will join the battle."
"You have received professional virtual training. Now tell me, what do you think are your chances of winning?"
Lille asked a cruel question.
What are the chances of winning for 344 reserve pilots against an armored force of tens of thousands of people?
The reserve pilots have a very rich knowledge reserve and have experienced dozens of battles in the virtual world.
But now, they can only deceive themselves in their hearts: that is a virtual situation after all.
Lill seemed to have captured the psychology of these soldiers from the setbacks, and added:
"The first lesson of actual combat, don't deceive yourself, don't ignore your own judgment."
"Don't forget that this is only the first batch of troops. In the worst case, they will use Sokovia, Polmak, and Santaka as front-line bases to continuously transport more troops."
The difficult answer is about to come out:
The regular army of Latvia is only 10,000 at most, but they can have no fighters, tanks and armored vehicles!
This is almost a war that cannot be won.
It's a difficult answer, a difficult opening, but they must learn to recognize the facts, rather than paralyzing themselves by staged victories.
The answer was given in unison in the communication channel: almost impossible.
The atmosphere became heavy, but no one became self-destructive because of it.
Pilots will not give up on themselves. Even if they are not real pilots yet, they still have the king-
The homeland is behind them, they can't lose.
"Now for the good news: they want to completely destroy our country, and the Air Force and Army need to work together.
The border terrain naturally slows down their march, and our Peregrine and Ironclad drones have been deployed to suitable locations, and once they detect air units, they will launch suicide attacks."
"We have five days before the army crosses the mountains and rivers."
"We have five days to capture the enemy's command center."
Normally this is a war that cannot be won.
But excellent intelligence work will bring a glimmer of hope to Lille.
