C3051 The Function of Informatization
What was the use of information for a mechanical army like the Tank Force?1
Many people did not realize the arrival of such a revolution. Especially to the people of Bear Country, they only felt that it was enough for the tank to be able to fight and charge. In fact, this revolution would deeply affect the construction and development of the ground troops.
Tanks were the king of land battles, but tanks could never fight alone. No matter how thick their front armor was, the side and back were always weak. Therefore, tanks are destined to rely on group charging. In a group battle, you always know how the tanks around you are distributed. In an intense battlefield, it was self-evident how useful they were.
This was the most important function of information conversion. At the same time, it could also let the commander know the situation of the Tank Force. It was clear at a glance. On the blazing battlefield, he was commanding the Tank Force to advance at any time. When necessary, the highest commander could mobilize the tanks below to change the direction of the battle. The previous command structure in the shape of a tree had become flat.
Just like their current commanding system, if their commander's commanding tank was destroyed... Then, they almost lost contact with their superiors... In such a tree-like command system, a node was destroyed. This meant that the entire lower part of the command system had lost contact. But... It was not easy to change the situation. The Tank Force, who had been calling for orders through the radio... It must be such a tree-like structure. They could only use modern information technology. It'll be flat.
Any tank could directly contact their superiors. Furthermore, it would not cause chaos in command. Without a digitalized terminal, it was absolutely impossible.
Now, Sergey looked at a small device inside the opponent's tank. He looked at it with envy. If they had such a device too... They would be able to know their own location at any time and be able to contact their superiors at any time. The situation today wouldn't have happened. It changed the direction of their compass, and the map behind them... It also made them believe in the compass, so that an elite group like them, the Tank Force, would believe in it. Now, such a low-level mistake appeared in front of their allies. It really made them speechless.
Sergey's heart was filled with complicated feelings. He couldn't help but continue to speak to Liu Minggaang, "Your equipment is really advanced."
It wasn't our fault that such a situation had happened to us. It was because we did not have these equipment. However, in terms of the combat power of tanks, we still don't think we're lacking in anything, our tank... Stronger than yours!
This was what he wanted to express right now. However, after hearing the other party's words, Liu Minggaang smiled and took out a flat electronic device. He said to him, "Actually, you don't have these military equipment, but you can start with civilian equipment. Our civilian equipment can also be used for navigation. "
As he said that, he turned on the equipment in his hand and pressed the icon on the screen. Sergey looked at his fingers sliding on the screen in surprise. He could actually operate it. What kind of high and mighty thing was this?
Without a thick shell, it was so light that it should be civilian equipment. What kind of civilian equipment was this?
"Well, there is no cell phone signal here, so it can't be used to make phone calls. But if it is only used for navigation, then there is no problem." Liu Minggaang showed the device in his hand to Sergey. Sergey looked at the screen enviously and only then did he see it clearly. On the screen was an electronic map similar to the one on the military equipment earlier. There was an arrowhead on it. It represented his current position, and then he operated on it with both hands. By shrinking the map, he would be able to see the surrounding terrain more clearly.
"What is this?" Sergey could only ask.
"It's a phone." Liu Minggaang said, "This is our latest mobile phone. You can make a call. We can send text messages, and there are other functions, such as the GPS coordinates. As long as you can find the Navigation Satellite on top of your head in the open air. We can use it to navigate, because there is no internet. We are still unable to update the real-time data, otherwise, the electronic map inside... It can also be updated to the latest version at any time. "
Phone?
In the Bear Country, this kind of informatization construction was rather slow. Now, in the big cities of the Bear Country, there had just been a mobile communication company to build a mobile network. The usage of mobile phones was still relatively low. In the Han Country, with the help of advanced electronic technology, the mobile network had already been laid out on a large scale. Furthermore, mobile phones were not expensive and were relatively cheap. Of course... The latest model in Liu Minggaang's hands still cost him a month's salary. This mobile phone was originally intended to be a gift to his wife. But now, he used it first.
It was as if Sergey had lived in the previous era. He didn't understand these things at all. He had never seen such an advanced phone before. He looked at the other icons on the screen and continued asking questions.
"What is this?"
"Camera. There is a camera in front. You can take pictures at any time."
"What about this?"
"[Communication software. Using it to chat can save text money. Well, in places with the Internet, it can also be used for videos. I often use it to chat with my wife and children at home.]"
In the cold second half of the night, the group of Tank Soldier from Bear Country, who had been found, were entering a new world. They were like Grandma Liu entering the Grand View Garden. Everything was new to them.
At this moment, the news was sent to the command center. After Shoigu received the news, he started to hesitate.
Should they continue with the unfinished drill? If they continue, they would have to add fuel to the oil midway. Although the fuel is provided by Han Country, but this way... Exposing the short legs of their tank could be considered a weakness.
However, if they didn't attack their final target, wouldn't it be like a tiger's head and a snake's tail?
Shoigu's eyes were bloodshot. Amidst the whistling of the cold wind outside, he turned to look at Major Yang and said, "I suggest we change our plan and attack the last target together. Your supply fleet, please follow behind our formation. "
They had planned that after this exercise, a tank competition would be held. And now... He could invite the other side to attack together in advance. This way, he could also see the performance of the other side's tank in advance.
With this idea in mind, he suggested that the other side attack together. When he heard this, Major Yang naturally agreed immediately.
"No problem." Major Yang said, "Then let them rest for a short while. After dawn, let's start. We will charge towards the final target together."
