“These are all necessary for large-scale battles. As for how to make it easier for the infantry to carry them, this has always been the main research direction for equipment experts.

“Think about it. As the environment continues to evolve and types of weapons continue to increase, the experts of the Equipment Research Center can’t just research one piece of equipment that is suitable for the present. They have to adapt to the present and the future.

“This time, them giving this to us is actually considered a trial. It’s a semi-finished product. During the usage process, we need to observe it carefully and familiarize ourselves with its various functions. At the same time, we need to give our opinions. After all, this is specially developed for infantry maneuvers. Our opinions are very important.

“For more than ten years, we’ve been researching only one type of equipment. Ye Jian, this is the process of developing our military power. Once the technology is successful and the military is able to use it, it’ll be a huge leap for our individual soldiers.”

After hearing that, Ye Jian fell silent. The difference between her and Captain Xia could be seen. Her analysis of the country’s situation and military power was far behind his.

Even though her sniping skills had surpassed his, her overall skills were still not on par with his.

If she wanted to catch up to him, she still had plenty to learn!

She was also glad that he was by her side so that she would not be stuck in a state of self-restraint. She would always know what she was doing and know that there was no end to learning.

Then, he talked about the key points of desert training in detail. As he spoke in a low voice, time passed bit by bit. It was almost ten o’clock when Xia Jinyuan put down the pen in his hand and started to destroy the paper on the bed.

Dozens of pages needed to be torn apart one by one. Xia Jinyuan smiled and asked Ye Jian, “Do you have any opinions about desert training? Or why we need desert training?”

This question could be answered. Ye Jian pondered for a while and said, “In the Nine Earths Chapter of The Art Of War, there was a mention of it. The combat zone is divided into nine types. It’s thought that only by mastering different combat methods in different environments can one effectively launch combat operations.”

“As a squadron special operations force, the Xueyu unit must be familiar with different regions and environments. When we rescued K7, I realized that everyone was very familiar with the terrain. Although there were people leading the way, you were the one who suggested which direction to go.

“The timing, geographical advantage, and manpower must not be lacking. If anything is lacking, we’ll definitely lose. The battle environment can be attributed to geographical advantage. The environment has a huge impact on the overall combat power of the army. Napoleon was an example in the West. The army he led ultimately stopped in Russia in winter. In the Battle of Red Cliffs, Cao Cao’s army suffered a huge defeat because they did not know about the marine war. These ambitious and ruthless men could have dominated the world, but due to the unfamiliar environments, they were defeated.

“And the British army sailed straight to the Atlantic without combat training. They actually won the Horse Island War because they spent years in the complex seas undergoing difficult, high-intensity training. In the end, they won when no one was optimistic.

“Grandpa Gen once said that if the training is hard, going into battle will be easier. If the training is easy, then it’ll be difficult when you go into battle. Although desert training is tough, the better we adapt to the extreme combat environment, the easier it is for us to deal with all kinds of complicated environments during combat.

“I think this is the ultimate purpose of the military’s arrangement. It tells us that there are no shortcuts in combat experience and skills.. Only through hard work can we not be defeated.”
