Ten thousand I am across the heavens

The instructor still remembered how desperate he felt when he fought against the teacher. The enemy had the same number of troops as his own, but the number of officers on his side was 50 times that of the enemy. However, during the battle, the teacher's army was elusive and could not be found at all. Every time they appeared, they were outnumbered. After quickly annihilating them, they disappeared again.

Logistical support was almost never used, and every time it was used, it was at the most critical moment, eliminating almost all possibilities of direct conflict, and annihilating them all in such a casual manner, although their teacher said that such a record could only be achieved on a sufficiently large and complex battlefield. If the venue was small and the plain was endless, no matter how powerful his command ability was, he would not be able to win. But reality is extremely complex, and the real world is also very vast.

Even the real world has no boundaries with the simulated world. If their top commander leads the troops to fight in reality, the strength he shows will be much stronger than in the simulated battle.

The new batch of reserve officers were moved by what they heard. They had never thought that the career of an officer could be so strong. The instructors nowadays could easily defeat them. The difference between the highest commander and the instructors was much greater than that between the instructors and them. If they could improve little by little on this path in the future, perhaps this path would become the strongest one in the future.

This is different from the Slave Path. Although the strong men of the Slave Path are often the strongest trump cards of the major families and can play a decisive role in large-scale battles, they are still equal to other schools in the final analysis. They are fragile themselves, and the beasts they command are not easy to come by. They need to capture slaves bit by bit and consume beast-controlling insects. Each powerful beast needs to consume such insects. The consumption of forming a legion is often dozens of times that of other schools. Without the resources of an entire family, it is really difficult to grow. It is precisely because of these difficulties that the Slave Path is stronger than all schools in large-scale battles.

The corresponding career of an officer requires more prerequisites than slavery. The commander is not a beast, but a real human being. Humans cannot just follow orders. Only when working together for a great goal can they be willing to sacrifice their lives.

But it is also because humans are much smarter than beasts. When it comes to commanding the army, the grassroots commanders are more adaptable than beasts. That is to say, on the real battlefield, the grassroots commanders can take care of the details that the supreme commander cannot notice when commanding the army. On the battlefield filled with a large number of small-scale battles, the grassroots commanders can often bring many surprises to the supreme commander, which is something that beasts cannot compare with. Although the manpower and material resources required to form such a large army are incredibly large, the benefits of forming such a army are also incredibly large. Compared with the slave way, the growth potential is so great that it is against the sky. The wisdom of human beings is reflected to the maximum extent in this collective.

It is precisely because they see the bright future of this road that the reserve officers are gearing up to participate in the battle, working hard to improve their command skills and strive to have the ability to command real military operations as soon as possible.

However, after actually entering the battle platform, they discovered that the battles between each other were often not equal, and the tasks were not all to destroy the enemy's base.

Sometimes their mission is to destroy the enemy's base, sometimes their mission is to defend a position, and sometimes their mission is to escort important items, or to plant a bomb on an important building and hold on until the bomb explodes.

The tasks of the two sides are often different, because on the battlefield, they will face many complex situations. Many times, as grassroots commanders, they are the ones who receive orders, and the superiors may issue various orders according to the local situation. They must learn to perform tasks in various complex environments to become a qualified grassroots commander. But they must also have a big picture view when performing their tasks.

Even if the mission objective is achieved, there will be different scores depending on the impact of your team's losses on other participating units, etc.

For example, when defending a position, if you can avoid calling for fire support from the rear so that the artillery position that may serve as an important trump card is not exposed, you may get an extra high score.

If you receive the mission to preserve manpower, but end up running around with the enemy all over the mountain, using your teammates as cannon fodder to delay the enemy, causing the lack of protection of the artillery airport and other important units in the rear to be destroyed by the pursuing enemy, then even if you have completed the mission of preserving manpower, your score will be very low. This is a typical behavior of not having a big picture on the battlefield and only caring about preserving your own strength.

After the actual simulation battle began, the reserve officers realized how complicated the situation the army would face on the battlefield. Considering that they would often be fighting against Gu Masters rather than mechanized troops in the future, there was another mode of simulation in the battle platform. For them who were busy every day, this special simulation method was actually a kind of relaxation.

That is, in the simulated battle, they no longer play the role of the mechanized army. Instead, they play the role of Gu Masters, commanding the masters of the family, appearing as villains, and acting as enemies to specifically disrupt the tasks of other reserve officers.

Since there are not that many people who can play Gu Masters, the reserve officers assigned to this role will often only play the most powerful Gu Masters, such as the patriarch of a family, and then lead the low-level Gu Masters controlled by artificial intelligence to fight against other reserve officers.

The Gu Masters they play will no longer be limited to issuing orders on the command interface, but will truly enter the battlefield in the form of virtual reality, with a much higher degree of freedom than the commander, and possess many abilities that surpass ordinary people, that is, the abilities of Gu Masters.

Although this kind of strength is mostly confined to the fourth level, and most of the time they can only play the role of a third-level Gu Master at most, but for them whose own cultivation is mostly at the first or second level, having the opportunity to experience the strength of the third level is already a very rare opportunity.

They will acquire different abilities according to different battlefield environments, and then use their own talents to find ways to sabotage other officers.

Even though Tao Chengyu was an expert in this field, as a former family member, he was very familiar with how the strong men of each family fought. Correspondingly, he had now joined the Shanhe Republic and was quite familiar with the mechanized corps. Therefore, when he played the villain, he became the most troublesome guy for other reserve officers.

This time he became the villain again. In this round of battle, he will play a third-rank elder, commanding a team of fifty Gu Masters, while his opponent can only command a mixed army of one hundred. Among them, there are 20 mecha infantrymen, and the rest are all light infantrymen. The highest level of cultivation among them is only the second-rank level, and there are only two such people in total. The rest are just beginning to open their minds and have mastered some first-rank killing moves that consume a lot of energy. They are not much different from ordinary people.

However, these people are not without their own advantages. While they lack advantages in individual combat power, they can call for various logistical support. They have a great advantage in firepower. However, their enemies also know the strengths and weaknesses of both sides, and they must know how to play to their greatest advantage to restrain the firepower advantage.

The opponent Tao Chengyu faced used a more conventional fighting style. At the beginning of the game, the pilots were sent to conduct reconnaissance and search for possible enemies hidden in the mountains and forests. Their mission was to hold their positions, ensure that the high ground they were on was not captured by the enemy, and wait for the follow-up artillery units to arrive and occupy the high ground.

This task may seem simple, but it is not easy to accomplish when facing enemies that are individually powerful and good at infiltration. As the saying goes, if you defend for too long, you will lose, and the pressure on the defender is very great.

He now urgently hoped that the reconnaissance plane could find some clues about the enemy, and then engage the enemy's main force as soon as possible, and call for artillery fire from the rear to take the enemy away.

Unfortunately, the first wave of exploratory reconnaissance did not work. The enemy was only human-sized and could hardly be spotted by reconnaissance planes hiding in the woods. He could only send out scouts to conduct jungle reconnaissance and patrol around the high ground. He also sent soldiers to cut down trees around the high ground. After the trees were cut down, they lost their function of blocking vision. Although this method was a bit stupid, it was undoubtedly effective. After the trees were cut down, more open space would be created, greatly reducing the range where the enemy could hide.

For the hot weapon troops, a distance of more than ten meters or even tens of meters may not be a big deal, as the range of almost all hot weapons is far beyond tens of meters. However, for Gu Masters, this distance has a great impact. Under the fifth level, most Gu Masters are used to fighting at a distance of less than a hundred meters, and there are few long-range attacks that can exceed a hundred meters. This makes the distance between the two sides slightly wider, which will have a great impact on them.

The strategy he chose was indeed quite effective against ordinary Gu Masters, but he was unsure because he didn't know what abilities his opponent possessed. After all, on a real battlefield, the enemies they faced were also very strange, and no one knew what abilities their opponents possessed.

Tao Chengyu was very satisfied with the ability he obtained randomly this time, and he also spread out his personnel to scout the surrounding environment. In the jungle environment, although he had no way to communicate using a small map, the Gu Master who was good at scouting had a strong ability to move in the jungle.

Unlike those real family Gu Masters, he had a deep understanding of the Shanhe Republic and was very clear about the capabilities of various arms. In this way, it was possible to conduct targeted operations and quietly observe the enemy's positions and the positions of the enemy's scouts from a distance, knowing how far the enemy's effective reconnaissance range was.

However, in the process of single combat, they still have little advantage over the enemy's scouts. Scouts usually have their own power armor. They are also elite personnel among the warriors. While they have elite combat skills, their own cultivation is also relatively high. Even if they cannot reach the second level, they should be at the peak of the first level. If combined with hot weapons, they are a considerable threat to the second-level Gu Master.

Therefore, the Gu Master who first encountered the scout was discovered and killed on the spot by the opponent before he could pass on the information.

But this is not important. The gunshot exposed the enemy's approximate position, and the scouts with good hearing quickly locked onto the scout's location.

Tao Chengyu quickly rushed to the vicinity of the battlefield. He knew the range of the infrared detection device and how to shield his own thermal sensors, so he stayed outside the opponent's reconnaissance range and observed from afar.

After he had figured out the route for his next investigation, Tao Chengyu began to use his ability to grow mushrooms one after another on the ground. This was an ability he got randomly this time, and it was very suitable for jungle warfare.

In the dark and humid jungle, mushrooms can be seen everywhere. Many mushrooms can be seen among the tree roots and in the grass. Therefore, the mushrooms he made were not noticeable. They were hidden among the tree roots and grass, ambushing on the path that the scouts must pass.

After arranging the battlefield, he slowly left and waited at a farther distance for scouts to pass by the position he had arranged.

The elite scouts faithfully carried out his orders. The news of the previous encounter with the enemy had been reported back, which made the commander happy. His patrol system successfully prevented the enemy's infiltration and invasion, which meant that the defense system he had painstakingly built was reliable. This was indeed the case. Even if the opponent clearly knew the detection range of the infrared device and even had certain ways to block infrared detection, it would not be easy to break through these layers of patrolling scouts. There was a high probability that he would be discovered immediately and then be surrounded and suppressed by the supporting troops.

But this time the scout encountered something different. When he passed the mushroom forest, the mushrooms slowly bloomed silently, and a large number of spores were released from the mushrooms, staining the scout's body. These spores were invisible to the naked eye, and even the elite scouts could not find them.
