MTL - Darkness is Coming-Chapter 697 Galaxy Falls
In the operational headquarters of the Shanghai Theater, two red landlines were quietly placed on the desk of Liu Yuanzhou, the commander-in-chief of the three armies.
The red landline on the left is a military security phone. In addition to the digital dial pad, there are two buttons for switching between plain-text and encrypted communication modes. This phone uses a military security communication line. , even if it is intercepted, it is difficult to decipher, it is just a meaningless current noise. In addition, all confidential telephones are strictly physically separated from the local communication network, and there is basically no possibility of being eavesdropped or leaked. However, due to the large number of connected networks, the security of this confidential phone is actually not as good as that of its peers.
The old-fashioned red landline on the right is the famous Military Commission No. 1, which is commonly known as the red phone. In order to avoid leaks, the dial is not set. Moreover, any original circuit is interfered with by foreign objects or the casing is damaged. A protector inside the fuselage sounds an alarm.
This is not only a phone, but also a symbol of status. Usually, only cadres above deputy senior officials are qualified to put such a red phone in their office. Owning it means obtaining the status of "celebrity in the party" and the ability to administer the country. "The Wall Street Journal" once published an article saying: "The circle of people who can have a red phone is about 300 people, mainly men, who dominate one-fifth of the world's population. If someone can have such a phone, it means that He holds the decisive symbol of supreme power and influence in China."
This statement is not entirely correct. In fact, there are far more people who have the qualifications to use the No. 1 aircraft than the Wall Street Journal estimates. Using the No. 1 machine, there are many top leaders of large central enterprises will be equipped with a No. 1 machine, and all retired cadres at or above the deputy state level will also have a No. 1 machine in their homes to facilitate direct communication with current leaders.
However, the error in the numerical estimation does not affect the Wall Street Journal's definition of the No. 1 machine, nor does it make the No. 1 machine's prestige slightly lower. At the very least, Yang Xiaoqian, as the leader of the education reform group, has more energy than most high-ranking officials, but he is still not qualified to put a No. 1 machine in his office.
This shows how precious phone number 1 is. All owners of phone number 1, including Chairman Wen, will place this red landline in the most accessible position on the desk so that it can be picked up faster when the bell rings. Telephone microphone.
As long as the red landline rings, most people will pick up the microphone as quickly as possible. It is no exaggeration to say that some heads of central enterprises will jump up to answer the phone.
But in Liu Yuanzhou's office, the situation was different. The military confidential telephone for communication with the Nandu Military Region and the General Staff and the No. 1 machine for direct communication with the Chairman and Prime Minister were placed on a long table ten meters away from Liu Yuanzhou. When the bell rang, the silence was broken. , no one cares.
Commander Gao of the Nandu Military Region is obviously not a person who gives up easily, so the phone keeps ringing, but Liu Yuanzhou, who is in a wheelchair, stares at the screen in front of him without looking at it, let alone answering the phone. the meaning of.
Finally, a little boy unplugged the telephone line, and the spacious and empty room returned to silence.
A cylindrical machine had a green light above its head, and a very human-like tone of voice came from the sound source output: "Why don't you tell them? Explaining to them won't waste much time."
"Recently, you have more and more questions, which is a good phenomenon, but not all questions will be answered after they are raised. You have to learn to think for yourself and find answers." Liu Yuanzhou did not answer Zero One's question directly, he slowly Standing up, standing up straight, a silhouette was projected on the high wall composed of countless electronic screens in front of him.
"let's start."
As this command came out, Zero One no longer made any sound. The red light on its head flashed at an extremely fast frequency. It seemed that it was struggling. Obviously, the current task was taking up all its computing power. .
At the same time, in the Shangjing Lingyi Base, the staff who had been on standby for a long time all took action and shuttled through the base in an orderly manner like worker ants. One after another lighted up, all the supercomputers in the base entered the overclocking state, and the cooling facilities were turned on simultaneously.
"The first stage of preparations is complete."
Zero One's voice became a little dull at this moment, Liu Yuanzhou nodded lightly, with many instruments behind him, a strange machine filled with various lines slowly drove to Liu Yuanzhou's side, Liu Zhongqian walked over quickly and held up a suit. Huge helmet with electrodes, wires, pipes and antennas.
Liu Yuanzhou took the helmet and placed it on top of his head. In the Zero One base, one hundred and seventy-four "guests" with different skin tones and the same expressions all put on strange-looking helmets under the command of the staff inside the base.
"The preparations for the second stage are completed, everything is ready, Commander Liu, please instruct."
Liu Yuanzhou's eyes lost focus, and only the stars were flowing. He didn't speak, but he had countless orders, but in an almost negligible amount of time, they instantly crossed long distances and transmitted them everywhere.
In human perception, the time when each unit receives the command is exactly the same, in no particular order, but in the perception of the machine, even a microsecond delay cannot be ignored, so Zero One can detect it, receive the command first and deploy it The action is the micro-drones stored in the special warehouse of the theater command, they are the closest to the command output terminal, and they need the most simple procedures to carry out the command.
Thousands of drones took off in batches, these tiny drones carrying video and audio recording and transmission equipment and modified weapon systems flexibly cruising in the night sky, flashing small traffic lights. From a distance, it seems that a large number of fireflies have become dancers, and under the incomparably clever command, they present a ensemble dance.
As their wings began to spin at the same speed, the resonance of the humming sound shattered the glass inside the buildings on the ground.
In the major air bases in China, many facilities equipped with intelligent systems began to operate on their own without personnel, and all large drones began to leave the control of the air base and automatically drive to the runway.
Built in a secret military base on the outskirts of Shanghai, little-known, one after another unmanned transport aircraft began to take off, and one after another unmanned tanks and unmanned combat vehicles lined up and drove out of the base.
After the fire control system received the launch command, the artillery network composed of weapons of war and best at creating destruction began to act.
Hundreds of cannons turned their muzzles and fired missile shells one after another at a rate of fire that could not be seen with the naked eye. A flash of light hanging in the air.
There are so many bright spots, the first comer has not fallen, and the latecomer has chased after, so that the audience has a strange visual effect, as if a light curtain appeared over the city.
The light curtain is matched with a dark night without moonlight and starlight, like a galaxy in a silent universe.
The next moment, the bright galaxy falls!
