Spy Family

King Zhai's interstellar fleet has indeed strengthened its network defense. Lu Linbei tried to enter the servers of each ship, but failed three times in a row. He still had many methods that he had not used, but decided to give up because he could detect the hidden traps in the fleet network.

Lu Yezhou informed Huang Pingchu of the news.

The fleet has mobilized more shuttles and robots to follow Lu Linbei's position, paying great attention to his "feeling".

Although space is not empty and is filled with all kinds of invisible matter, Lu Linbei still believes that he is not mistaken. The weak rhythm must be an artificial network signal, not cosmic rays that happen to appear here.

The programmers of the Longitude and Latitude need to locate, communicate with each other, make plans, and issue orders... These behaviors are all inseparable from the Internet.

After controlling the shuttle for nearly fifty minutes, Lu Linbei finally found a stable target.

"This is right here. The enemy will not be more than 10,000 kilometers away from us. I can launch an invasion now..." Lu Linbei fully devoted himself to the role of a soldier, eager to fight the enemy.

"Not now." Mei Wangzhen usually likes to take risks, but at this time he became cautious, "The opponent has nearly 100,000 programmers, but you are alone. Ye Zi, inform Staff Huang, Lao Bei, you are not allowed to enter again from now on. Network, waiting for support.”

"This is not like Sister Zhen's style." Lu Linbei said.

"War and intelligence work are two different things. I can tell the difference clearly. We are on the battlefield. We don't care about personal bravery. Cooperation is the strongest guarantee of victory."

Lu Yezhou was wearing a mask to transmit information to the rear. He was unable to make eye contact with Lu Linbei opposite him, but he was not idle either. He put down the controller with his left hand and made a shooting gesture, indicating that Lao Bei had been defeated by Zhenjie.

Lu Linbei laughed and explained: "Cyber ​​war is different from traditional war. Strength is not judged by the number of people. Although the number of programmers on the Longitude and Latitude is large, the differences between them have been erased. In reality , human beings can show differences in many aspects such as IQ, appearance, physical strength, personality, etc. Once turned into programs, these things will all disappear and no longer have meaning. If a programmer proves that his code is more perfect, other programmers will immediately Being able to imitate will lead to them becoming more and more similar, with the same advantages and the same vulnerabilities.”

Lu Yezhou couldn't smile, but he could laugh, "Haha, it's not like us ordinary humans who know someone is better, but don't have the ability to imitate him."

Mei Wangzhen said without looking back: "So if the programmer kills one, there are still tens of thousands, but you, Old Bei, only have one. The military has its own way of fighting cyber warfare, so you don't need to take risks. This is mine. Order."

Lu Yezhou reminded: "Sister Zhen, Lao Bei is not from the Military Intelligence Department, and he is now a major, the same level as you."

"Even if he becomes a major general, he still has to obey my orders in the shuttle I drive." Mei Wangzhen said proudly.

"Okay, I'll obey the order." Lu Linbei stretched, "At least let me do something. It's not very comfortable just sitting here."

"Learn to use the weapons console. If you want to fight cyber warfare, you must also be prepared for physical warfare."

"Ask me if you don't understand anything." Lu Yezhou rushed.

Lu Linbei took out the mask and handle, and after getting used to it for a while, he found that there were indeed many things he didn't understand. He asked questions one by one, and Lu Yezhou answered them in great detail. Although it only took him less than three hours to get started, he was like a fighting hero, not only explaining the operations methods, and also proposed various imaginary tactics.

"According to speculation, the programmer's carrier is probably a one-meter to two-meter-long robot. It flies extremely fast, and it is almost impossible to aim. We have to cooperate with each other. I say left, and I hit the left, and you hit the right. Say it up, I'll hit it up, and you hit it down."

"Why can't it be the other way around? You say left, I hit left, and you hit the opposite direction."

"Because... I can't react. Since you are good at thinking about complex problems, I will give you a more complicated task."

"Okay." Lu Linbei did not argue and continued to check the contents of the console. After a few minutes, he said: "There are options for positioning and aiming here. It seems to be similar to missiles. There is no need for us to do one left and one right."

"Huh? Is there such an option?"

"In the sub-option of 'Combat', the fifth option after aiming, warning, shooting, and locking."

"Such important content is placed so far back? Is the designer out of his mind?" Lu Yezhou was very unconvinced. He took off his mask and looked at the instructions again, "Oh, it's really similar to a missile. It should be called a split missile. Because three bullets will be fired at one time, the chips in the bullets guide each other and attack the same target. Based on this calculation, our total number of physical bullets needs to be divided by three, which is 1,200 rounds."

"You have already used ten ammunition." Zi Wangzhen reminded.

"It can be ignored. Sister Zhen, how many programmers did you say there were on the Longitude and Latitude?"

"At its peak, it was nearly 100,000. Some of them should have been destroyed by that nuclear weapon attack. If you remove one-third, there will be 66,000 left. If you remove the spies hidden on the spacecraft, there will be at least 50,000 left. Bar."

"Oh my god, 1,200 small missiles can deal with 50,000 robots... Let's wait for the large forces to arrive before joining the battle."

Lu Linbeidao: "Multiple programmers may share one robot."

"It's also possible that one programmer can control multiple robots." Mei Wangzhen didn't want to give Lu Yezhou any comfort.

"Sister Zhen, the two of us are investigators, we don't even have a formal military rank. If we die here, can we get a medal or a title or something?"

"Of course not, and I don't want to give it. The investigator has to live and die quietly without letting anyone know except his colleagues."

"But if you survive, you will be rewarded, right?"

"Most of everything you enjoy now was obtained through rewards, right?"

"It's almost 90%. If you only rely on salary, it will be too hard."

"Then you still ask questions knowingly?"

"Sister Zhen, this is called boosting morale. If you don't take the initiative to say it, I have to ask you to say it. Look, I'm in a much better condition now and I'm not so afraid of death." Lu Yezhou put on his mask again, "Come on, programmer, let me see Let me see what you are capable of, and let you see what I am capable of.”

Mei Wangzhen has taken back control of the shuttle and entered cruise mode.

Not long after, other manned shuttles and flying robots arrived one after another, using more powerful equipment to find the location of the target.

The enemy's network signal suddenly disappeared, indicating that they had noticed the appearance of the fighter group. This was a good sign and proved that Lu Linbei was right. At least a group of Jingwei programmers were flying in this area.

Around four hours and fifteen minutes after Mei Wangzhen set off in his shuttle, the enemy and ourselves encountered each other and the battle officially began.

On one side are the manned shuttles and flying robots of King Zhai, and on the other side are the programmers of the Longitude and Latitude. They have long given up their bodies and must live in chips, and the chips are installed in robots of different shapes.

Thousands of kilometers apart, the two sides engaged in a cyber war, which ended in less than three minutes. Because each side had vulnerabilities, in order to ensure safety, they chose to shut down the network at the same time, retaining only some of the most basic functions, and then began to launch long-range missiles.

At this stage, Zhai Wangxing's side has an absolute advantage, with more missiles and more advanced technology, forming a one-sided suppression.

Unfortunately, the number of long-range missiles is still not enough to destroy all targets, and the robots of the Latitude and Longitude begin to appear in the line of sight.

A small missile composed of three ammunition came in handy at this time, and a more brutal hand-to-hand combat began.

The Jingwei has greatly narrowed the strength gap. Although their robots are not specifically designed for combat, they do not require a life support system. This is similar to drones. At the same time, their trajectories are flexible and changeable, and they can carry out complex coordination tactics. And similar to humans.

No one was in the mood to watch the battle, but focused on the battle itself. While firing small missiles at the enemy, they also prayed that they would not be hit.

King Zhai only established the interstellar fleet a few years ago, and it has only been fully formed for a year. From tactics to training, it is still in the initial stage. The so-called coordinated operations can only play a role in the network warfare and long-range attack stages. Once it enters close combat, the formation will Soon they were scattered and everyone was fighting on their own.

Lu Yezhou seemed to be competing, shouting "shoot", "hit" and "miss" constantly.

Lu Linbei was also concentrating on attacking the robots flying around, his whole body tense and silent.

Mei Wangzhen is still responsible for driving, and is also responsible for protecting the lives of the three people. It is like driving fast on the narrowest city streets. Not only must you be careful of the buildings on both sides, but you must also avoid people and things that may jump out at any time.

She was good at doing this kind of thing, moving around in the crowds of machines as skillfully as a veteran who had been driving for several years.

Lu Linbei and Lu Yezhou gained less. The missiles were not sure to hit every time. The range of these improvised small missiles was too short, and the power they carried could only sustain ultra-high-speed flight for three seconds. Once they failed to hit the target, they would be lost. Power, flying out of the battlefield in a straight line, becoming a mote of dust in the universe.

Basically, it takes the two of them forty or fifty times to hit a target.

The two also have to be careful about accidentally damaging their own machines. The identification friend or foe system is still functioning and will sound a red and rapid sound alarm. However, if the operator insists on launching, he can still fire small missiles.

What the weapon console saw was an electronic image, while what Mei Wangzhen saw in front of him was a real-time scene. There were more and more machines on both sides of the enemy and ourselves, and they did not decrease at all. At the same time, the metal fragments formed by the battle were also increasing rapidly. Although it is small in size, like the fired bullet, it runs rampant along the initial trajectory, posing a considerable threat.

The battle did not stop for a moment, and time passed unconsciously. Lu Linbei was the first to react and reminded: "Sister Zhen, five hours have come and we need to return."

Looking at the still numerous enemy targets, Mei Wangzhen hesitated for a moment and replied: "When we came, it was a curve, and when we returned, it was a straight line. We can stay for an extra hour..."

Lu Yezhou hummed while shooting: "There is not much physical ammunition left. We can't last for less than an hour, not even half an hour."

"Then... shoot carefully, use up all the ammunition, and let's go again."

The battle continues.
