Chapter 357

"It's really hard for human beings to exert their full potential without being forced to do so..."

After reading this military report, Zhang Yuan couldn't help sighing.

It's easy to feel it on paper, but you have to practice it. In practice, it is totally different from theory. This should be the best way to use virtual world technology so far.

In this report, it can be seen that after two years of training, the casualty rate of holding on for four hours has decreased from more than 50% at the beginning to less than 20% at present, and the individual combat ability and coordination ability of soldiers have been comprehensively enhanced.

"It's time to start another exercise..."

In the past, soldiers also had related exercises, but they used electronic guns, that is, after being hit, their helmets were smoky, and then they declared themselves "dead".

You can't shoot your own soldiers alive in routine exercises, can you?

In this kind of exercise, although the failed party will be punished, for example, all kinds of corporal punishment, strengthening training and so on, the soldiers will also feel guilty, but how can the learning effect compare with the virtual space exercise?

Death in the virtual space, although not really death, but the pain and fear is real!

Even if this kind of pain has been weakened by a large part, a person will still have a strong emotion when he sees that his internal organs are broken and his vitality is rapidly passing away.

A large part of this emotion is transformed into the desire for victory, which makes them understand more about the cruelty of war and learn to use their brains to grow into real soldiers.

Of course, some psychological experts think that this kind of training is too cruel, or it may lead to mental illness of soldiers.

This kind of worry is also real, so the interval between each exercise is very long, at least six months of normal work and rest time. And after each exercise, there will be relevant psychological counselors to check the mental health of the soldiers If we really can't adapt, we can only withdraw from the army.

The military achievements did not distract Zhang Yuan's attention. This is just a small achievement of the whole civilization in recent years.

Seeing that time was almost up, he got up from his position and set off for a major meeting of the Scientific Council.

When he came to the meeting, he saw that it was full of scientists, researchers, technicians and engineers. There are still many people coming in one after another to find their own seats.

"Ladies and gentlemen, let's get to the point. This meeting is about the achievements made over the years. "

"First of all, the construction of the pelican transport spacecraft was completed, and it passed the mobility test six months ago This spaceship can smoothly transport 120000 people back to glitzer 581. This is the last return ticket. If you miss it, you will never have another chance. "

"Relevant personnel statistics and information reporting must be done well."

In the previous month's intention survey, there were still 120000 people hesitating and hesitating. They wanted to return to glitzer 581, but they didn't want to.

In any case, the Kunlun fleet will give the greatest support and will not force them to stay.

The wounds caused by war are permanent. Although they have been healed, the scars still exist.

The pelican transporter, on the other hand, will carry not only 120000 people back home, but also the latest knowledge captured from the badit.

This knowledge includes general knowledge of the universe, the application of super-magnetic-a materials and subatomic science. This is the breakthrough point of the third level civilization, and it is quite natural to inform the rear base camp.

Zhang Yuan continued on the stage In the future, our fleet will go to the trading market of Huantai civilization to seek the knowledge of superluminal communication and curvature navigation. It will probably take 500 years, or even more than 1000 years! "

"Therefore, this should be the last time to report the information to the rear base camp. I hope they can develop smoothly after they get the information."

"People's letters are also being solicited in an orderly way. The pelican is like a courier. It's still very risky to use electromagnetic wave communication directly near the cosmic string route We can only use this very traditional method. We should be able to return to our base camp in 50 years. "

"The captain of the pelican is Mr. Hu pan of the Ministry of new civilization development."

The middle-aged man rose from his seat and bowed directly to all the members.

And then there's the supermagnetic-a material, and the latest fighter, the petrel space-iv, which is the latest developed, is loaded with the latest model of interstellar ramjet.

The super engine in the first lab has been completed!

The screen shows a simulation picture of the latest generation of warships, including the latest electromagnetic kinetic energy weapons and ion gun weapons.

“…… About the performance and cost performance of this fighter, whether it is worth mass manufacturing, or what kind of problems are encountered. There is also the issue of upgrading the whole electromagnetic industry. ""In this regard, let's welcome ye Junchang of the military technical staff to speak."

The whole discussion is very intense. The changes brought by the larger magnetic field are all-round enhancement. Not only the ion engine becomes faster and stronger, but also the electromagnetic gun, ion gun and other weapons will be upgraded again.

According to simple calculation, if these technologies are fully implemented, the mobility of type IV spacecraft will reach 280% of that of type III spacecraft, and the battle damage ratio can reach 1:2 or even 1:3 after the war.

"In theory, the petrel IV is a mature class III civilization fighter, while the petrel III is only a class II civilization fighter. There is a generation gap between them. It's not unusual to achieve such a battle damage ratio," he said

"The difficulty we are facing is that the technology is far from mature enough. The super magnetic-a material can not be preserved and consumes huge energy. It has to be built and used now. The miniaturization of the whole generating device has become the biggest problem At present, it is extremely expensive to generate a huge magnetic field, and the scale of the device is so large that it is difficult to miniaturize. "

Even the badit civilization itself did not solve this problem.

"In a word, the interstellar ramjet can only be installed on medium-sized spaceships and large spaceships at present."

But if it is installed on a medium-sized or large spacecraft, its mobility will not be so terrible. At most, it can only be regarded as a lick.

For a simple example, Haiyan IV spacecraft can easily generate an overload of 8 g. human beings can only bear this acceleration for a few seconds, but can Kunlun Mountain bear an overload of 8 g? Definitely not. As long as the acceleration is 0.1g, it can easily tear this ship apart.

Unless, like gravitational acceleration, the force is applied precisely to every atom

Because of these difficulties, at the end of a meeting, people only decided to install ramjet on one of the Falcon class destroyers. First they tried to have a look, accumulate some technology, and then carry out miniaturization research.

Then the meeting decided to use super magnetic a material to install some electromagnetic shield generators at various locations in Kunlun mountain.

Electromagnetic shield, as the simplest shield technology, is not strong in defense against all kinds of interstellar war weapons, but it is also a shield technology, no matter how good it is.

What it can resist is mainly free ions in space. When the spaceship is sailing at high speed, the friction between the spaceship wall and these particles is extremely fierce. As a result, when the Kunlun Mountain is sailing for a period of time, it is necessary to stop to maintain the surface of the spaceship, otherwise all kinds of instruments may be damaged.

But with the electromagnetic shield technology, this kind of ion friction can be reduced a lot, the upper limit of the navigation speed of the spacecraft can be increased, and the number of maintenance can be reduced.

This is a very big improvement.
