Chapter 1188 War Summary

8days ago Xuanhuan Novels 9
In the following few days of meetings, the General Staff Department reviewed and summarized the entire torch operation based on Ahsha's retracement and search results of Tachila ruins.

Almost every day, reports are delivered to Roland's desk, which are piled up together, almost half a person tall.

More and more details are becoming clearer.

For example, the huge divine stones appeared in the Battle of Wangbeipo and the Battle of Taqila, both of which came from the ruined divine stone mine veins.

At the bottom of the mine, the detective team found the missing part of the ore cluster. The two medium-sized divine stone pillars were cut halfway, and the cross section was very smooth, as if they were cut by a sharp weapon.

Although the backtracking ability cannot be used near the divine stone, from a global perspective, it is likely to be related to the giant skeleton.

In fact, the latter is not only a means of transportation, but also has the function of a small obelisk, which can regenerate the red fog, and the corroded land around the remains is proof.

However, compared to the obelisk that often covers hundreds of kilometers, its coverage range is only one or two hundred meters, and it cannot be produced out of nothing. It still needs the supply of the red line to maintain it.

As a sentinel that can move freely, its strategic significance is self-evident.

The General Staff concluded that compared with the Spider Demon, this super-large carrier is probably a rare species for the devil, otherwise it could completely replace the role of the outpost and occupy the entire fertile plain before humans can react.

In addition, most of the passages behind Tachila are excavated by spider demons. Although their ground digging ability is far less than that of devouring worms, it is still much better than that of mad demons.

These passages all start from the Divine Stone Mine Cave. The depth from the ground obviously takes into account the threshold of observation ability. In addition, there is sufficient preparation time, so it is definitely not an easy task to discover.

Since both Selene and Agsha tend to regard giant skeletons and spider demons as the same kind of devils, Roland also gave it a new name: the devil beast, which can quickly name similar devils that have not been discovered by a specific prefix.

Currently, these two carriers are named fortress-type deformed beasts and spider-type deformed beasts, respectively. The latter is divided into the first type of stone throwing needles and the second type of throwing personnel. The accurate name is not only conducive to combat deduction and order issuance, but also more convenient for post-war statistics and recording.

In addition to the detailed analysis of the battle situation, another focus of Roland is the shortcomings and needs to be improved by the General Staff Department based on the results.

Among them, Itis personally made a report and was ranked first among many issues, and it was still the shortcoming of investigative capabilities.

Putting aside the sky, in the history of human wars, tunnel warfare was restricted by excavation tools and cost ratios, and has never been a strange trick and cannot be used as a conventional tactical means.

However, this rule is somewhat inappropriate in front of devouring worms and spider-type deformed beasts. As long as we gather enough carriers, the enemy may even dig an underground passage for the army to pass in a short period of time, so the land under our feet has become a dangerous area that must be guarded against.

There is no doubt that Sylvie alone can't take care of it, but it's also extremely unprofitable.

When the Magic Eye penetrates the obstacle's vision, the consumption will be greatly increased. Under the condition of a fixed total magic level, monitor targets ten kilometers away from the surface for a whole day. If you scan the strata, it will be just a shallow layer of one or two football fields, three or four meters deep.

What's more, except for the extraordinary, there is a threshold for the abilities of all witches. When a certain condition exceeds, the consumption of magic will show an exponential increase. In this case, any non-emergency behavior is a waste of magic.

This vigilance work must be undertaken by the First Army itself.

Roland vaguely remembers that in history, there were two sides in the war who used underground monitoring to guard against each other's excavation of tunnels and raid positions. The principle is like a stethoscope. With the help of sound, the attenuation of sound in the solid is less than that of air, and can more clearly capture the movements and stills of opponents when they dig.

However, this method is limited to tunnels being excavated near the position. Traps like Taqila that were arranged early cannot solve all problems by listening alone.

After thinking about it over and over again, he came up with a feasible method to prob.

This is a detection method that is widely used in the civil engineering industry. As one of the two dogs in the science and engineering industry, he has often heard roommates of the Civil Engineering Institute mention it.

Simply put, it is to smash a steel bar vertically into the ground and judge the softness and hardness of the soil layer based on the distance each hammer is smashed into.

The test points are generally distributed with plum blossom piles several meters apart. As long as one probe is equipped, a few people can complete a large-scale inspection.

When the sinking data of the steel bar suddenly increases, there is a very likely hole below.

The combination of listening and exploration methods can basically ensure that threats from the underground are detected without the help of witch abilities.

As for the investigation of enemy situations in the air, if you want to get rid of your dependence on Lightning and Maisie, you can only go the way to develop the Air Force.

When will this part be filled depends on Tilly.

In addition, there are many conclusions in the report such as relying too much on positions and lack of quick support capabilities. While Roland lamented the rapid improvement of the staff level, he was also quite helpless. It was not that he was not clear about these problems, but due to the limited population of the city without Winter City, it was difficult for him to make up for the above shortcomings in a short period of time.

Finally, among the numerous reports, one opinion caught his attention.

It was a report from the grassroots level of the military, submitted by a logistics officer.

The report said that under high-intensity combat, the performance of the Mark One machine gun was not stable. After the decisive battle, many soldiers from the machine gun squad complained that they had more time to replace the barrel than to fire the gun, which also put a considerable burden on the logistics.

If possible, I hope the Engineering Department can improve it.

This is also the first time Roland received a direct feeling from the frontline soldiers after the establishment of the feedback mechanism. As the personal users of the weapon, they are the group of people who know the best and most of the advantages and disadvantages of the weapon.

In fact, as early as the attack on the Tower One site, he noticed an abnormal increase in the scrapped barrel, but because these parts could be recasted, he didn't take it too seriously at the time.

Now that I think about it, it should be because the shooter lacks experience and the pressure on the enemy has increased sharply.

The soldiers were even more nervous during the night war, and it was difficult to confirm the results of the battle, so they almost didn't let go if they pressed the trigger.

The air-cooled gun barrel itself is not as good as the water-cooled gun barrel. The previous combat intensity is basically still cope with. Now, after the shooting time is long, the heat dissipation is a bit impossible.

This also made Roland feel a little alert. The reason he used air-guided re-intake and air-cooled gun barrels at the beginning was to use multiple shots. If it was designed according to Maxim, it would not be in line with the general idea, but the actual effect was not as ideal as he expected.

Although the production of tracer bombs and the increase in night combat experience can alleviate this situation, the enemy's troops deployed to the Western Front are only a small group.

If the main force really reaches the point where the devil is pouring in the mountains and fields, the impact of the heavy machine gun being silent will be fatal.

Fortunately, this report made him realize his mistake.

The solution is to separate the two, and replace the heavy machine gun specially used to suppress the enemy with a longer barrel with a heat sink, and no longer consider multi-purpose issues.

The general-purpose machine gun that can hold a charge and is suitable for vehicles will be re-designed based on the Mark One to meet the needs of future wars.
