Xia Chujian's Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha chip could provide far more data than the base's Ground Fighters.
For example, its battlefield analysis and scanning function was extremely powerful.
She could accurately pinpoint the source of the heat signature attempting to lock onto Sang Yadi's Warplane, identifying its direction and even the specific Warplane.
Mao Yonggui and Chu Qingjuan, without a word, dove down from above, activating their Smart Machine Guns and spraying wildly in all directions to reduce the chances of Sang Yadi's Warplane being locked on.
Their maneuver bought Xia Chujian some time, allowing the Mechanical Intelligence of her Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha to perform calculations.
She aimed to use the ballistic trajectory of the shot that killed the previous cadet, along with the far-infrared heat source locking onto Sang Yadi's Warplane, to reverse-calculate the shooter's coordinates!
This involved dynamic calculations, requiring a high-level Quantum Chip's processing power to complete in a very short time.
It now seemed that Su Buyan's Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha was equipped with a high-level Quantum Chip.
In just two seconds, Xia Chujian locked onto the Warplane that had shot its own side and was relentlessly pursuing Sang Yadi's Warplane.
Y21! It was the cadet ranked twenty-first, flying a Harrier-type Warplane.
Xia Chujian hadn't paid attention to cadets ranked outside the top twenty, so she didn't know who it was, but that didn't stop her from exposing them.
Xia Chujian opened the base's public communication channel and quickly said, "Y21! My Fire Control Radar has locked onto you! Dare to shoot your own side again!"
Without waiting for a response, Xia Chujian added rapidly, "Y21 just shot down one of our Eagle-type Fighters. The Warplane pilot ejected, and then Y21 shot the pilot in the parachute. Now they've locked onto a second Eagle-type Fighter. I'm warning you, if you dare fire another shot, I guarantee your machine will be destroyed, and you won't even have time to eject! Try it if you don't believe me!"
The pilot of Y21 was none other than Lü Luyu.
She had intended to refute the accusations from D10, but the other party spoke too quickly and with too much certainty. Moreover, she felt guilty, worried that the other party had some evidence in hand. In the end, she could only let out a morbid laugh on the public channel.
"Heh heh heh heh! Sorry, misidentified… Mechanical Intelligence malfunction, unable to lock on correctly… It wasn't me, it was my Warplane's Mechanical Intelligence… Heh heh heh heh…"
Heh your head! Xia Chujian was furious.
But at this point, she couldn't actually open fire on her own side. Locking the other party's Warplane with her Fire Control Radar was the most she could do.
And if she really did attack, all the evidence of the other party firing on their own side would likely be obliterated.
The result would be that she, the one avenging her comrades, would become a traitor who killed her own side…
That would truly be a losing proposition.
So Xia Chujian held back.
Although she had a fiery temper, she was gradually realizing the importance of patience on this battlefield of blood and fire.
Lü Luyu quickly steered her Harrier-type Warplane away, trying to escape Xia Chujian's Fire Control Radar lock.
She knew that the accurate locking range of an Eagle-type Fighter's Fire Control Radar was three kilometers, but even when she had flown more than ten kilometers away, the red dot of the Fire Control Radar lock still appeared on her console display, not disappearing! Lü Luyu cursed inwardly, ultimately fearing that Xia Chujian, that madwoman, was even crazier than her. Therefore, she flew another ten kilometers forward before completely breaking free of the other party's Fire Control Radar lock.
She looked at the coordinates and broke out in a cold sweat.
She had almost flown out of the battle area and was completely out of the game! She, Lü Luyu, was aiming for the top twenty, how could she give up so easily? Moreover, she had already taken out one of the top twenty, and she had risen from twenty-first to twentieth.
Goal achieved!
She gave herself a victory sign in her heart and leisurely piloted her Warplane back to the previous battlefield.
During this time, Xia Chujian had used the Shao Siming Mecha's built-in Mechanical Intelligence to complete the scanning of the entire Ring-Shaped Highland Ridge terrain.
According to the physical analysis performed by the Shao Siming Mecha's Mechanical Intelligence, this Ring-Shaped Highland Ridge had indeed been hollowed out!
Inside the mountain were large warehouse-style buildings, and, her judgment was correct, there were indeed many Ground Fighters hidden inside!
Their Flying Base's intelligence was way off this time!
However, Xia Chujian was also puzzled.
Because their entire air force had been continuously attacking the Ring-Shaped Highland Ridge, destroying more than two hundred anti-aircraft strongholds, including four major anti-aircraft strongholds at the Ammunition Depot level. The entire mountain ridge had been riddled with craters, and some places had even been completely broken, but how had the warehouse-style buildings inside the mountain not collapsed in a chain reaction?
Xia Chujian couldn't help but activate the Shao Siming Black Silver Mecha's excellent Far Infrared Perspective Function to carefully observe the warehouse-style buildings inside the mountain.
Upon closer inspection, she discovered an interesting phenomenon.
That is, above the warehouse-style buildings inside the mountain, there were many thick chains, linked together at the top in a crisscross pattern, forming the style of beams, which was very peculiar.
After calculation and analysis by the Shao Siming Mecha's Mechanical Intelligence, it was these chain beams made of special metal that connected all the warehouses together.
This building mode could ensure that even if the mountain top was flattened, or a certain place was directly blown off, the overall warehouse complex would not completely collapse.
For example, the fourth Ammunition Depot that Xia Chujian directed her three roommates to blow up was their largest. The explosion's yield directly severed that section of the mountain range, but only that section of the structure was destroyed. The rest remained intact, without a chain reaction of collapse triggered by the incident in one area.
This proved that the chain girders made of special metal used by the rebels had ductility and uniqueness.
Xia Chujian stared at the intricate chain girders within the mountain on the display screen, then looked at the hundreds upon hundreds of Warplanes hidden inside the mountain warehouse, knowing that this time, their base would have a hard time winning.
After a moment's thought, she used the public communication channel to call the Instructor Command, saying, "Chief Instructor Pei, the rebels only have a little over a thousand infantry left, and all two hundred-plus anti-aircraft positions on the Ring-Shaped Highland Ridge have been destroyed. We've even exceeded our mission, shooting down over a hundred rebel Warplanes beyond the intelligence reports. Can we withdraw?"
The Instructors heard this through the public communication channel, and the corners of their mouths twitched in unison.
This D10 was really a troublemaker! Zhuo Wangying was the first to express dissatisfaction, saying, "When a war starts and when it ends is up to the Command, not you."
Xia Chujian: "..."
Damn it, am I trying to seize command? I'm trying to save the lives of all the trainees, okay!
Okay, actually, she really wanted to seize command a little...
She felt that if she were in command, she might be able to take down the entire Ring-Shaped Highland Ridge!
Of course, she couldn't say that directly.
She had a fiery temper and hadn't studied her books well, but that didn't mean she was an idiot!
Xia Chujian secretly made up her mind, took a deep breath, and began to shout in an angry tone, playing up a persona of being hot-blooded, reckless, and valuing her life.
She said loudly, "Which Instructor is this? I want to ask, can this Instructor guarantee that the rebels won't have more Warplanes appearing next!"
"We only have a little over a hundred Warplanes, and our payload is limited. Even if we want to fight, our bullets and Missiles are almost used up. How are we supposed to fight? Use our Warplanes to ram them, and die together with the rebels? — Then congratulations to this Instructor, you will successfully pull our side's attrition rate from thirty percent to one hundred percent!"
Xia Chujian's accusation shocked all the trainees.
They wanted to earn merits and awards, but they wouldn't fight a battle with absolutely no chance of winning! So they all clamored in the public communication channel.
"Yeah, Instructor! We only brought ten miniature air-to-ground Missiles! What do we do when they're all used up?!"
"If the rebels still have Warplanes, and if their Warplanes still have special coatings that our radar can't lock onto, then no matter how we fight, we'll all be wiped out! — The Instructors aren't planning to watch us die, are they?!"
Some trainees even said sarcastically, "...You're all thinking too much. Do the Instructors care if you live or die? They just want to earn merits. No matter how many of us die, it's just icing on their medals!"
Hearing this, the people in the Instructor Command Room immediately couldn't sit still.
Even the Instructors who supported Zhuo Wangying said uneasily, "That D10 trainee has a point. What if the rebels are still hiding Warplanes?"
Zhuo Wangying said unhappily, "According to our intelligence, this place isn't the rebels' main base. Look at their forty thousand infantry, they're all old, weak, sick, disabled, and women, not their elite at all. So, they have a hundred-plus Warplanes at most. How could there be more Warplanes?! The hundred-plus Warplanes just now were all shot down by our people, there won't be any more! Don't be frightened by that trainee's alarmist talk."
Pei Zijing and Yu Fei exchanged glances.
For some reason, they trusted Xia Chujian's judgment more.
Because the so-called "intelligence" they had received had been proven to be problematic time and time again by the sudden appearance of Warplanes.
Pei Zijing said in a deep voice, "Vice Chief Instructor Zhuo, can you issue a military order to guarantee that no new Warplanes will appear from the rebels?"
Zhuo Wangying glared at Pei Zijing, thinking that even if he believed that there would definitely be no new Warplanes appearing, he couldn't issue a military order!
Could military orders be issued casually? Zhuo Wangying said in a deep voice, "Chief Instructor Pei, can you also issue a military order to guarantee that we have completely annihilated the rebels here?"
Pei Zijing looked at Zhuo Wangying coldly, knowing that he was setting a trap for him.
What did it mean to completely annihilate the rebels here? What if there were any rebels who escaped? What if they received reinforcements? But now it had been proven that their intelligence was problematic, why were they still stubbornly fighting here!
The confrontation between Pei Zijing and Zhuo Wangying was also transmitted to the cockpit of every trainee through the public channel.
Xia Chujian's eyes dimmed.
She recognized Pei Zijing's voice, and then knew that the voice that didn't allow withdrawal and was being unreasonable was the base's Vice Chief Instructor Zhuo.
Now that she knew his surname and official position, she had to report him to the Special Security Bureau!
There was something wrong with this person, he needed to be investigated...
...
There will be a big chapter update at 1 p.m., including the bonus chapter for 600 monthly tickets in June.
