Chapter 31 Such a "Wonderful" Infiltration

About fourteen hours later, the last ray of sunlight from the "Quiet" star disappeared at the end of the horizon, and the star of Nami ushered in the gloomy nightfall. Under the shining night sky, there was a dead silence, and the surface temperature outside the camp dropped to minus eight. more than ten degrees.

In the command room of the Reconnaissance Company of the 1st Armored Brigade, Powell looked at the Tang Fang and the three of them expressionlessly, and pushed a fingernail-sized data chip in front of them: "The details of this reconnaissance operation are recorded in detail here, I know you all. Discord with those people in the second row. Exactly, this mission should offset the confinement penalty."

Tang Fang put away the chip, and without much to say, turned around and walked out of the command room with Aros and Hausen.

It took about ten minutes for the three of them to change into the power armor and follow the instructions in the chip to arrive at the hangar in the corner of the camp. The mechanic in charge of vehicle maintenance drove a saber-toothed tiger A2 reconnaissance vehicle to Tang Fang's side: "This girl is a little shy, you must be gentle with her."

Seeing Ji Xiubing's face looking reluctant to marry his daughter, Tang Fang couldn't help rolling his eyes, opened the car door and sat in the co-pilot. This saber-toothed tiger A2 reconnaissance vehicle is a few years old at first glance. Even the cub has been born, so is she. Mom shy? Shy ass!

Ignoring the mechanic's nagging, Aros lifted his foot into the rear cabin, and Hausen sat in the main driver, pushed the joystick forward, and the reconnaissance vehicle rushed out of the camp like a bull in rut, with a "woo". All the way to the dust, after crushing countless gravel, disappeared in the southwest of the camp.

The saber-toothed tiger A2 reconnaissance vehicle is modified from the saber-toothed tiger anti-armor combat vehicle. The body structure is simplified by removing the main gun, hydraulic shock absorption equipment and a series of shooting assistance systems above the body, and a power amplifier and new off-road tires are installed. To increase speed and stability to adapt to various combat environments.

In terms of concealment, the body skin is made of special materials that can absorb radar waves, which can avoid detection by most small and medium-sized ground radars. In addition, the camouflage micro-control system spread all over the body can also use analog imaging technology to change the color of the outer skin, so that the reconnaissance vehicle can be integrated into the surrounding environment to confuse the enemy.

The distance from the company camp to the target site is about 1,800 kilometers. Except for the occasional crater caused by the impact of asteroids, the overall road conditions are fairly smooth.

The electronic chip recording the content of this mission has been connected to the power armor's microcomputer by Tang Fang, and the UI interface of the helmet visor displays various data related to the mission.

In the afternoon, the fixed-point orbiting satellite directly above the base scanned some anomalies in the southern hemisphere. By analyzing the data, the staff of the division headquarters speculated that the Sulu Empire might have acted. In order to achieve early warning and early preparation, this guess needs to be confirmed, so the task falls to the first armored brigade responsible for the frontal battlefield.

There are two reasons why a human confirmation is required. Under the premise that the fleets of the two sides are far away from the battlefield and cannot intervene in the inland war, the work of intelligence acquisition must be completed by the warring parties alone.

Fixed-point orbit satellites are nothing new. With the development of science and technology today, the technology of using satellites for military reconnaissance has long been popularized, and a complete set of strict offensive and defensive systems has been formed. has already started.

The data obtained by the satellite may be true, or it may be deliberately induced by the enemy. It is extremely difficult to distinguish whether it is true or false. If an unmanned reconnaissance aircraft is sent to investigate and confirm, due to the relationship between the mechanical structure of the drone and the communication protocol, once it enters the enemy's electronic identification area, it is easy to be found and intercepted, or even technically misleading. therefore,

Taking into account all aspects, it is very necessary to send a reconnaissance unit to conduct artificial confirmation.

The mission objective of Tang Fang and the three was actually very simple. They crossed the equator of Nami Star, went south along the west line, and reached the S102 area marked on the navigation map. They used marking instruments to record the deployment of the enemy within five kilometers from the edge of the strong acid vapor area.

In the detailed introduction of the task, a note about the strong acid vapor area caught Tang Fang's attention.

As an ancient planet exposed to the vacuum of the universe, Nami star has no water on the surface. According to the results of the geological survey, a liquid similar to a strong acid solution is widely distributed in the crust of Nami star. This liquid The corrosion effect is extremely strong, and it can corrode a one-centimeter-thick steel plate in just a few seconds. Even the titanium alloy, the main material for the construction of space battleships, will become thousands of times when immersed in this fluid for more than ten minutes. The sores are full of holes and gradually dissolve.

Originally, this strong acid liquid was scattered in a special kind of rock formation deep in the earth's crust, but for some unknown reason, the core of this ancient planet, which should have become dead due to the slowing down of the nuclear reaction, is still lingering. , continued to radiate a very strange energy intermittently.

When this strange energy breaks away from the shackles of the earth's core for various reasons and sporadically escapes to the depths of the earth's crust, once it comes into contact with those strong acid fluids, a violent exothermic reaction will occur, thus breaking through the shackles of rock formations, all the way up, to On the surface, small springs of acid solution are sprayed out, and because Nami has no atmosphere, and the springs carry huge kinetic energy, these acid solutions that have traveled thousands of miles to the surface will be erupted at a very fast speed. Outer space escape. A part of the peripheral acid solution will cool down during the jetting process, forming a turbid liquid, which will be captured by the gravity of Nami star, creating a very peculiar geographical landscape of the strong acid vapor area.

Many acid solution fountains are combined together to form blocks of strong acid vapor areas on the surface of Nami star, but fortunately, these strong acid vapor areas are not too large, and the largest block marked on the satellite scan map, its diameter is only Only a few dozen kilometers, and it does not have any impact on the warring parties.

After browsing the data, he passed the data to Aros and Hausen to review it, and then frowned and thought carefully about the details of the action.

The saber-toothed tiger A2 reconnaissance vehicle with a speed of up to 210km/h took advantage of the cover of the night and rushed to the southwest. After driving for about six hours, cross the equator and enter the sphere of influence of the Sulu Empire.

Hausen reduced the speed of the car and turned on the camouflage painting and "stealth" effect of the reconnaissance vehicle. The saber-toothed tiger transformed into a cheetah like a spotted cheetah that shuttled through the jungle at night, quietly approaching the S102 area.

Along the way, I did not encounter any patrolling enemy soldiers, nor did I find the enemy situation described in the mission. After another three hours, when the reconnaissance vehicle came to the periphery of the S102 area without any danger, the three jumped out of the vehicle, hid the reconnaissance vehicle in the gap at the mouth of a valley, went into battle lightly, and sneaked towards the target location.

Just as the three of them approached the center of the S102 area little by little under the cover of the crisscrossing craters on the surface of the planet, in an early warning post less than 200 kilometers away, Su with three oil paints on his forehead. The second lieutenant of the Lu Empire, Max Turner, was looking at a red dot on the electronic signal scanning chart with a ghostly face and muttering to himself: "The signal generator is still on when infiltrating? To occupy our public broadcasting band?"

"Bach, satellite positioning."

The voice just fell, and a satellite image of the ground appeared on the central monitor screen. Inside the crater with a radiation area of ​​several hundred meters, three small black dots were moving fast.

"Zoom in, zoom in."

Following Max's order, the camera slowly zoomed in, and the three men wearing the power armor of the Mengya Empire were completely exposed to everyone in the outpost.

"Should I say you're brave, or are you out of your mind?" The young imperial ensign frowned.

"Send this picture to the battalion headquarters."
