I have a space station

Yan Zhengping's words were meant to tell everyone that Huatong Chamber of Commerce could not possibly be a product of the military region from a technical standpoint. On the other hand, it was a satire of the Security Department's dereliction of duty, even showing incompetence in the investigation of Huatong Chamber of Commerce.

He Jinghui also understood Yan Zhengping's meaning, and was both angry and annoyed, his face flushed red.

The more he couldn't find out, the more other councilors, even the speaker, would think he was incompetent. The more everyone ridiculed him, the more he would be hostile to Huatong Chamber of Commerce.

Bai Liji looked at He Jinghui and sighed silently.

He had even assigned the Dark Night Team to him, but there were still no results. He really didn't know what to say.

Of course, with Shen Wengang as the captain of Dark Night, it was simply impossible for He Jinghui to get useful information from Dark Night.

He should be thankful that Dongfang Chen didn't use this to scheme against him.

In fact, Dongfang Chen didn't plan to use this point, and wouldn't even use the sleeper cell line in the short term. On the contrary, he would continue to arrange for some more sleepers to go out.

From the current situation, if China wants to overcome the crisis and move towards victory and peace, it must inevitably undergo a major reshuffle. But now, the contradictions are still in their infancy and haven't become prominent, far from the time for a major reshuffle.

When the time is not right, no matter how great a hero you are, you will not have a place to use your abilities.

There are no heroes in ordinary times, only the heroes of the times.

To succeed, you must accurately grasp the development of the situation.

Therefore, Shen Wengang, as the head of the Dark Night Team, is a relatively important nail, and there is no need to move him lightly.

Let He Jinghui fumble around blindly.

"Alright, you two stop arguing. Councilor Yan, please continue!" Bai Liji interrupted the two people's argument.

"I believe that the form of warfare is changing, and our combat methods also need to be updated. Traditional human wave tactics, attacking important military targets, and intensive firepower bombing have now exposed many shortcomings."

"For example, now, with various types of weapons and equipment and many means of attack, we are helpless in dealing with things like mutated ants, mutated cockroaches, mutated bats, and this time's rat-rabbit swarm. This problem itself is worth pondering."

Yan Zhengping paused here, waiting for everyone to digest it.

These words were objective and practical, and the councilors had no objections.

"Everyone should find it easy to see that these mutated animals all use group attack methods. Looking at each individual, their abilities are actually very limited, and their attack methods are also very simple. But if combined, they form an irresistible force. I call this combat method swarm tactics."

"I have also listed several main characteristics of swarm tactics for everyone to refer to:"

"First: large numbers. Note that the large numbers I am referring to here mean a scale of at least tens of thousands. Ordinary beehives and ant nests that exist in nature do not have very large individual group sizes, so they do not show enough aggressiveness. This small-scale group is actually very unstable and easily destroyed. But if the number is large enough, the lethality will increase exponentially."

"For example, the locust plagues that have frequently occurred in history. Wherever locusts pass, crops are completely eaten. And if farmers want to eliminate them completely, they often have to set fire to the fields. Another example is the army ants that exist in tropical forests. When their individual numbers are large enough, everything in their path, even elephants, will instantly become skeletons."

"These examples all show that a large number of simple individuals often produce extremely terrifying destructive power."

"Second: the existence of a central control unit. Beehives have queen bees, and ant nests have queen ants. They issue simple combat missions to the outside world. All individuals have a clear division of labor and strictly follow instructions to complete their work. It is hard to imagine that they can only transmit simple instructions, but they can achieve efficient cooperation. However, this also has drawbacks, that is, the role of the central control unit is too important. Once this central control unit is destroyed, the entire group will collapse."

"Third: The functions of a single individual in the group are limited, the size is small, and the intelligence is low. In fact, this was reminded to me by the staff of Huatong Chamber of Commerce. All along, our method of developing weapons has been to emphasize the lethality of a single individual, such as tanks, airplanes, and artillery. The larger the caliber and the larger the size, the stronger the destructive power. This is actually our entry into inertial thinking. I asked that staff member, why make the robots so small? Guess how that staff member explained it?"

That staff member was actually Dongfang Chen.

Yan Zhengping paused, and without waiting for everyone to answer, he continued:

"He said that the smaller the size, the fewer materials are needed, and the less energy is consumed during operation."

"You see, isn't this the problem we are facing now?"

"Why don't we use airplanes, artillery, and tanks to eliminate those rat-rabbits? Isn't it because they have poor maneuverability, consume a lot of fuel and ammunition, and it is difficult to achieve precise strikes! There is also the flamethrower I just mentioned. Why did I later stop using this weapon? Ultimately, it is because the cost is high and it is not easy to achieve results."
