During the day, you can suppress our squad with your AK47s. At night, hey, let's do it again. Equip the infantry squad with infrared night vision goggles. I can see you, but you can't see me.

One shot, one little monkey!

During this period, Commander Dong of the Provincial Military Region and Commander Yu of the 141st Army visited the Third Research Institute several times to observe the test firing of new weapons. The 35mm howitzer and 56mm semi-automatic rifle, equipped with optical sights, significantly improved their accuracy.

There was an exceptional marksman who used a 4mm rifle equipped with a 56x scope to accurately hit a matchbox at a distance of 600 meters.

It was also this exceptional marksman who, with a .4 automatic howitzer equipped with a 35x scope, fired a shot into the firing hole of the bunker at a distance of 450 meters, killing a large number of dummies in the bunker and completely destroying the machine gun.

Commander Yu applauded loudly.

Hearing that the next step was to develop infrared night vision devices, Commander Yu was even more excited. He patted Liu Hongyi on the shoulder and said, "Xiao Liu, why don't you go to college next year? This year, stay in the Third Institute and develop all these things first."

Liu Hongyi laughed.

Isn't this exactly his own plan?

I didn't say I wanted to recommend any indicators.

At the end of this year, I will take the exam myself!

In June, the drone research team that Liu Hongyi had been longing for officially began operations.

Coincidentally, the senior researcher from the Third Research Institute who was transferred to the Beidahuang Corps was found by Duan Weimin.

And this person is an expert in applied electronic technology and remote control sensing.

Under Liu Hongyi's guidance, the senior researcher named Hou Wentian was very eager and formally reported to Duan Weimin, requesting the establishment of a drone research group.

There is also a very interesting episode in the middle.

"UAV?"

Director Duan was a little confused.

It's not his fault. Even the Eagles haven't developed drones these days. So Duan Weimin doesn't know what the purpose of this thing is. Now, when it comes to high technology, the eyes of the whole world are on that thief eagle.

Isn’t it nice to have big guns?

A definite second-class collective merit!

Hou Wentian said hurriedly, "Director, to be honest, I didn't think about this at first. It was that Xiao Liu, Liu Hongyi, who brought it up to me."

"Oh? Liu Hongyi asked you to do it?"

Duan Weimin's eyes suddenly lit up and he became interested.

Nowadays, Duan Weimin is still "superstitious" about Liu Hongyi.

Although this kid is young, Tan Dexi said that his brain is extraordinary, which is called "creative thinking."

Duan Weimin also acknowledges that creative thinking is incredibly important in scientific research, far more so than any other factor. Put another way, all other factors are zero, and creative thinking is the one.

Without this 1, adding zeros at the end will be of no avail and may even lead to the opposite direction, resulting in a lot of wasted effort.

As long as it was proposed by Liu Hongyi, it must make sense.

"Yes, Liu Hongyi said that once this thing is developed, it can first replace artillery observers. He said that if a war really breaks out in the south, artillery will be the key to victory. We have more artillery than them, and the main thing is that we can shoot more accurately."

"If we develop drones and fly them into the sky, we can clearly see the enemy's troop deployment and artillery positions. We can then concentrate our artillery fire and launch a fierce attack. This battle will be won from the start."

"Haha, this kid seems to be sure that a fight will definitely start in the south..."

Hou Wentian said, "Practice for war... Aren't we in the military industry here to prepare for actual combat? Forgetting about war is dangerous. Without an imaginary enemy, there's no motivation for scientific research."

"That's the point. Oh my goodness, this idea sounds pretty good. But, can this thing be developed? I don't think I've ever heard of any country doing it..."

Hou Wentian was in his forties, prime for scientific research, and he was incredibly anxious after being delayed for several years. After finally getting the policy approved and returning to the institute, he learned that the institute had awarded a second-class collective merit. Even junior researchers like Jin Yunfeng and Zhang Chenghai had received second-class individual merits, while two first-class individual merits had been taken by outsiders.
