"What have you been doing these days?"

When Chen Lin returned home, he asked about Lin Yun. He hadn't seen Lin Yun when he came back a few days ago. After little Chen Xiao was weaned, Lin Yun quickly resumed his work and had been so busy during this period that he couldn't take care of the family.

"Attend the training camp...Last month the association held a special training camp. Anyone who participates in various starship projects needs to train in batches."

Lin Yun had obviously just finished work not long ago. He was lying lazily on the sofa and eating grapes. "You are probably the next batch to go. Blue Sea Star did something stupid before. Three starships went to deal with the remaining Kara Zerg mother nest on the planet, but one of them crashed in the end..."

"That I know, they were indeed stupid."

Chen Lin also sat on the sofa, took a bag of grapes from Lin Yun and ate them while saying, "With so many long-range weapons, there was no need to send ground troops into the planet. But I don't know what they were thinking. They actually insisted on entering the planet's atmosphere."

"When I saw how they fought, I wanted to just go over and kick their asses. They were so stupid."

Lin Yun leaned towards Chen Lin, squeezed beside him and said, "Really? Knowing that the main problem on the planet was those Kara Zerg, why didn't they use Leviathan enzymes to scan the planet before entering the atmosphere? Alas, this operation is now used as a negative example in the training courses. A group of people were pulled here to learn after the incident was over. It seems that the positions of captain and commander have been lost."

"It's good enough not to be held accountable."

Chen Lin sighed softly, "I heard that a lot of people died at that time? Dozens of people died in this simplest combat mission. I dare not imagine how many people would die if we encountered a truly intelligent enemy and let this group of people command us."

"What is the main content of the training camp?"

"It's simple, mainly focusing on space combat and starship fleet combat methods, centralized command, fleet support and other such content. Previously, the association had broken up these contents and let each military region department implement a self-study plan. After this incident broke out, many people realized that this was not feasible at all."

Lin Yun said to Chen Lin, "I have studied this before. My father said at that time that it would not work to let the association digest and learn part of the courses internally. It's a pity that the association didn't pay much attention to the relevant content at that time. After all, our focus was on the ground before, and a few planets were enough for us to deal with..."

Chen Lin nodded. He had heard about what Lin Yun said before. The association had obvious focuses before, and a lot of content in the space field was brand new. Currently, among all the associations on the entire earth, only the Red Dragon Association had truly mastered the relevant knowledge in the space field.

The others are indeed not good enough.

Starship-related content cannot be mastered and proficient in overnight. This thing is even more distant and outrageous than the Red Dragon Association's previous establishment of a navy. After all, according to the saying on Earth - a century-old navy, then according to the scale and speed of the Red Dragon Association's current establishment of a space fleet, it will take at least a century to fully master starships.

"This is the second batch of training. Judging from the scale, the first batch is grassroots soldiers and people on the starship force, the second batch is people like me and scientific researchers and related scientific researchers, and the third batch should be you."

"I think you will be training together with all the base leaders and even the vice presidents of the association..."

Chen Lin was a little surprised after hearing what Lin Yun said. He was not surprised because he had to undergo training. In fact, he was surprised that someone at the vice president's level even needed training.

"Training is normal. People can't stop learning, right? There are too many technologies coming from aliens now. Do you think the senior executives of the association will still arrange things according to their previous ideas and plans? If so, many things will be messed up."

Lin Yun said with a smile, "President Li Tianyun is a frequent visitor to the training class. I heard that he comes to Night School to study in person when he has time. If he doesn't have time, he will invite a teacher to go to Beidu to give classes."

"In many cases, we don't ask them to really master these technologies. We just need to let the top leaders of these associations understand what is what. It's enough to have such a concept and idea. If there is a problem, at least they won't even be unable to understand the content of the report, right?"

Chen Lin nodded in agreement. He had encountered this situation many times in the past few years. At that time, he had just taken the position of the person in charge of the Anyun Base. At the beginning, some scientific researchers came to him with approval forms for his signature. At that time, he could not understand what some of the projects were about.

He could understand most of the words when they were separated individually, but he had no idea what they meant when they were put together.

In the end, Chen Lin’s solution was not to ask anyone for advice. He directly searched for relevant news, detailed notes, and concepts on the intranet. It often took him several days to understand two or three points of the approval form...

At that time, the association gave him enough patience and directly stated that it was okay even if this type of work was handled slowly, as long as Chen Lin could handle it. He could ask the association's specialists about any problems with the information.

Chen Lin watched and learned later, and only approved it cautiously after he understood it thoroughly. Therefore, the efficiency of the work in the early stage was not fast. At that time, some old staff members at Anyun Base had some impression of Chen Lin. After all, many people complained privately about the slow work...

Now the base has finally paid attention to the content of staff training, which has comforted Chen Lin to some extent. At least similar incidents in the future can be avoided or the losses can be minimized as much as possible.

The worst that can happen is that after the training here, stupid things will still happen there, right?
"It's better to have some training, so that we don't make ridiculous operations later... In the interstellar age, I think many people's thinking is still on the ground, or they are unwilling to contact higher-level knowledge. If this is the case, how can the association develop outward?"

Chen Lin patted Lin Yun on the shoulder and asked her, "What is the main content of the space combat training you mentioned just now?"

"The content is quite rich. For example, I took a class before, and the main content there was actually about determining the type of starship weapons. This is the most basic content." "The scope of use is divided according to the several basic weapon types currently in the association. After all, each weapon has a different attack focus, and the user needs to choose different weapons for enemies with different equipment. For example, energy weapons focus on certain enemies, and kinetic weapons focus on certain enemies..."

Chen Lin listened carefully, but soon raised his own questions - mainly about the direct combat situations in the current interstellar era. If both sides are fighting against interstellar civilizations and the weapons they use are based on this basis, how should they deal with it?

After all, according to the standards of the interstellar age, members who can land on interstellar battleships have all undergone specific selection and training. All positions on all ships are equipped with special anti-impact and anti-overload devices, which enable crew members to endure 10g overloads for a long time.

Once it is discovered that the enemy automatically enters a state of combat readiness, with a random and non-directional overload of 10g per second, and can deviate from the original course by hundreds or even thousands of meters in one second, how should the two combatants respond in this situation?

Chen Lin gave the simplest example. If a ship uses a laser weapon for aiming, its laser weapon is aimed at the enemy ship one second ago, and the enemy fleet is actually performing irregular maneuvers with a 10g overload once a second, and can move at least hundreds of meters per second!
Given this scenario, how would personnel in a space combat situation target and destroy the enemy?
Lin Yun did explain to Chen Lin that in this situation, one is to rely on densely launching weapons to cover the enemy ships on a large scale, and the other is to rely on super AI like Fuxi AI to directly calculate the opponent's movement trajectory, predict his position in advance, and then launch weapons to blow him up...

Chen Lin nodded. Lin Yun’s reply was a routine one. He actually imagined space combat to be more advanced.

In fact, there are no organized troops in the space battles envisioned by Chen Lin. According to his idea, war itself is a competition of productivity. Whether it is a battle on a planet or a battle between stars, the battle is to drive machines to produce automatic warships to compete in productivity.

In a real large-scale battle, the starship mothership will directly deploy its formation in the safe zone of outer space, and then use the planet as the base point to cover the entire battlefield at the fastest speed, and carry out one-shot strikes on all possible positions based on observation data, and saturation attacks will directly bombard the most remote locations!
After the bombing, the best strategy is to quickly dispatch drones to launch secondary attacks on these areas to ensure that all positions are destroyed.

Who wants to land and fight with you?

Who cares what kind of defenses you have prepared on your planet?
I won't even look at any of them. I'll bomb them all in beyond-visual-range combat before I talk about anything else!

He told Lin Yun his idea with a smile. Unexpectedly, Lin Yun was also very interested in this idea. In fact, she also liked this way of combat. After all, she was from the Air Force, and the Air Force's combat itself emphasized beyond-visual-range combat, which was a so-called inheritance.

The starships of the interstellar age combine all the characteristics of the air force and the navy. Lin Yun has a special feeling for these giant starships. Sometimes when designing weapons and equipment for them, he also takes the differences in combat methods into consideration. It is quite good that he specializes in the design of such weapons.

The two talked about the content of subsequent studies, including the centralized command project. In fact, the main content is about training the capabilities of ship captains. This subject is mainly open to elite students. Only if the association recognizes that you have potential will you be sent to the project for study.

In view of the failure and painful lessons of the previous operation, the Red Dragon Association attached great importance to the centralized command training this time. The elite students who entered to study in it must study for at least six months, and almost half of the time is spent on intensive training in the virtual world - the time in the virtual world is different from that in the real world. If you stay in it for three months, it will take at least several years to come out.

Chen Lin has not received any relevant notification on this point yet. He guessed that the Red Dragon Association should have placed its work at the outpost base and did not mobilize the training base at Anyun Base.

"There will be combat training later. I estimate that those who can become captains will have to undergo physical transformation to ensure that their abilities and thinking are far beyond the scale of ordinary people. Otherwise, they will not be able to take that position."

Lin Yun sighed and said, "I can only say that the association is really ruthless. Previously, the captain selection was basically to select the best people from the crew, and they could take up the position after passing the selection and initial training. Now it has suddenly become like this. The professional captain training program has produced ruthless people."

“I support this approach.”

Chen Lin said with a smile: "It's already this time. It can be said that after the interstellar era, many of the original methods do need to be changed. For example, the so-called captain selection mechanism now, professionalization is not necessarily a bad thing. It may help us avoid more casualties in the future."

Lin Yun’s idea was different from his, but she didn’t say much about this topic. She only mentioned the subsequent personnel transformation project.

The transformation project is actually tied to the captain's training. Some of the people selected as captains will choose whether to accept the advanced transformation from the Red Dragon Association, which can greatly improve the adaptability of these captains. At the same time, they can also transform some organs, install advanced equipment and AI auxiliary devices...

Although these things have not been officially launched yet, Lin Yun went to attend a few classes because of their reputation. After watching them, she came out with a frown, thinking that this was a bit inhumane.

"Forced?"

"Not really. The choice lies with these new captains."

Lin Yun shook his head: "However, the captains selected through this selection mechanism are already elites. Their loyalty to the Red Dragon Association is unquestionable. In order to become stronger and better adapt to future positions, I estimate that the majority of people will choose to undergo advanced transformations."

Chen Lin was silent for a few seconds, with no expression on his face.

"This is a choice made by the association, and we cannot interfere."

"Many technologies of the Night Alliance and the Pioneer Alliance are actually very problematic from our current perspective. We cannot use simple human thinking to look at them. We need to take a long-term view."

"These things will only give us answers in the future, and then we will understand whether they are appropriate or not..." (End of this chapter)
