Chapter 161 The Wind in the South China Sea Is Still Blowing
The South China Sea is a continental sea located in the southern part of China, which belongs to the western Pacific Ocean, with a sea area of 350 million square kilometers.Seen from space, the South China Sea looks like a "big pocket" slowly turning from northeast to southwest.Islands, reefs, etc. are dotted in this large pocket-like sea area.It is not only an important route from Northeast Asia and Southeast Asia to the Indian Ocean, but also a world-renowned oil and natural gas producing area.Because of its many interests, it is also one of the most sensitive areas in the world.
During the time when China kept a low profile, the islands in the South China Sea were gradually invaded by monkeys who didn't know what to do or what to do.However, with the strengthening of China's navy, the islands in the South China Sea are slowly returning to China's control.So far, the Dongsha Islands, Zhongsha Islands, and Xisha Islands are basically within the control of China; and the more controversial places are in the Nansha Islands.
The Nansha Islands are the islands that occupy the largest sea area among the South China Sea Islands. At the same time, because they are far away from China's mainland, China's control is relatively weak.At present, the central and southern parts of the Nansha Islands are under the control of Malay monkeys; the northeast is under the control of Philippine monkeys;Although Huaxia does not currently have an advantage in the number of islands controlled, it has laid its own nails in key positions.
Reefs such as Subi Reef, Fiery Cross Reef and Mischief Reef have evolved into islands due to the uncanny craftsmanship of nature. From the beginning, it was difficult to even have a lighthouse to a permanent settlement island with airports, camps, hospitals and other military and civilian facilities.And even better, the three new islands form a large triangle, so they can serve as horns militarily.With the actual control area formed by these three islands, new islands were slowly born under the wonderful hand of nature.Then the industrious Chinese will build houses, airports and lighthouses on these new islands at an unimaginable speed.
Faced with such a tacit cooperation between China and nature, the monkeys in Southeast Asia can only use the "big summoning technique"-summoning eagle sauce.But for the rabbit's behavior of repairing the island, although Yingjiang can't understand it, it's hard to say anything.After all, the instigator of the Xiudao incident was initiated by Yingjiang's loyal running dog in Asia, the Foot Pot Chicken.Moreover, the foot pot chicken used its own economic advantages to convince the international community that it was "legal".As a result, Ying Jiang was dissatisfied that although the foot pot chicken was the pioneer of the "Supernatural Workmanship", it is now completely behind the rabbit.Not only is the speed behind, but even the technology is behind.
Back then, the reason why the foot pot chicken created the "Supernatural Workmanship" was to turn Okinotori Reef into Okinotori Island, and then ran to the East China Sea and South China Sea to get a share of the pie.But to this day, the Okinotori Reef Shoal, which has been protected by a lot of money, has not yet become Okinotori Island, but there are still signs of decline.Then check, I don’t know who lost some starfish that love to eat coral polyps here.
A cruiser that has just replenished supplies from Yongshu Reef is sailing slowly in the South China Sea, and they are currently conducting a secret military exercise.According to the exercise data they obtained, three "enemy" submarines are lurking in the South China Sea, and their task is to find out these three submarines.In the early days, the Huaxia Navy focused on the development of submarines due to many shackles in capital and technology.
After all, submarines are relatively cost-effective weapons in the navy, especially for countries with weak navies that cannot gain control of the sea, submarines are simply an important barrier to protect their own coastal defense lines.After all, the "wolf pack tactics" invented by the Germans are still considered effective today, even though the current anti-submarine technology has been upgraded for several generations.Although "Sun Tzu's Art of War" also emphasizes that "soldiers use righteousness and odds to win", but it has to be admitted that submarines are somewhat powerless against aircraft carrier battle groups.Therefore, in addition to continuing to upgrade submarines, China's navy has also strengthened the construction of warships.
"Captain, I used to think that they were working hard on the island, but I didn't expect them to live a happy life now." Seeing that there is no mission now, an orderly started chatting with the captain, "It's only when we go to the island. I took a quick shower."
"That's now, a year earlier you knew how hard it was." The captain snorted.
"Didn't you see that wind power equipment was built on the island? That is the latest wind power technology researched by the country. A few pieces of equipment are enough to meet the needs of the officers, soldiers and other personnel stationed on the island. With electricity, the island can be well developed. Especially the fresh water. Now the fresh water on the island is obtained by the reverse osmosis membrane seawater desalination technology driven by electricity. If there is not enough electricity, where can we build a seawater desalination plant? In the past, this thing was only used by those big dogs in the Middle East Now we can not only afford it, but also use it better than them. Our desalinated sea water will be divided into two parts, one part is domestic water, such as watering, bathing, etc.; the other part is drinking water, which needs to be Perform an ion purification to make the water taste more like the water we used on land. By the way, in order to ensure the health of the officers and soldiers stationed on the island and the common people, these waters have to be artificially added with minerals at the end. So we drink Although the water is not as rare as mineral water, it is still mineral water. In the past, not to mention mineral water, it would be nice to have a mouthful of fresh water to drink. If there is a typhoon, the supply ship can’t get on the island, and that kind of thing is bad. You have to drink fresh water too!"
"These benefits only come after the country's science and technology advances." The herald sighed. "By the way, Captain, I heard that there are new warships about to be launched? Are our troops qualified to deploy? I heard that the new ships are quite impressive?"
"Why, you kid want to get off my ship?" The captain rolled his eyes at the messenger, "I can tell you, that new ship is indeed majestic, and I am greedy to see it. Tsk tsk, the cruising speed can reach 30 Knots, the limit speed can run up to 45 knots. It’s no problem to chase a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier at this speed. It can’t climb us at all. There are also those new weapons, at least half of which are estimated that even the Americans have never heard of them. But Let me also tell you that the technology content of this new ship is too high. Although it is assisted by an artificial intelligence system, there are still regulations on it. Want to join the ship? You have a bachelor's degree. Boy, I remember you came to join the army in high school, right? You If you really want to go, I recommend you to go to the military academy next year. But if you don’t pass the exam, then don’t blame me.”
"The basic requirement for boarding a ship is a bachelor's degree? Isn't that too high?" In fact, the messenger chose to join the army after graduating from high school because he didn't want to study.Unexpectedly, after entering the army, I found that the army is also very eager for highly educated soldiers.In the past, high school soldiers had some advantages, but now with the joining of a large number of military school students and university students, high school soldiers are naturally not rare. "Isn't it true that the captains of the new ships have to graduate with Ph. Ds? Then where can we find so many captains?"
"Not only do you need to graduate with a doctorate, but you also need two doctorate degrees." The captain held up two fingers and said, "I can tell you, you are still young and can still go to school. So hurry up and prepare for the exam. Otherwise, you will really be eliminated in the future."
While the captain and the messenger were discussing, three submarines quietly approached the battleship like ghosts.Submarine warfare and anti-submarine warfare have always been hot spots in naval tactical research, but they remain the same.A submarine is like an assassin of the navy. It is a good submarine only when it approaches the enemy silently and can kill the enemy instantly.
In particular, the word "quiet" is even more vital to the life of a submarine. After all, if a submarine is to sail on the bottom of the sea, it will definitely have a sound.In particular, the diesel-powered submarines of Huaxia in the early years were ridiculed by the Americans for several years, jokingly saying that "as long as the Chinese submarines are turned on, the entire Pacific Ocean will be awakened."Therefore, how to reduce the noise of submarine driving equipment and reduce the resistance noise when the submarine is sailing has always been the key to the study of submarine upgrades in various countries.Compared with diesel-powered submarines, nuclear-powered submarines are much less noisy. Although they will still be detected by anti-submarine equipment, they will not "wake up the entire Pacific Ocean as soon as they are turned on."But these three submarines are experimental submarines of the Navy. They have been upgraded from power equipment to submarine painting, and they are completely new submarines.
"Those fools haven't found us yet." A soldier in the submarine whispered.
During the silent period before the submarine operation, not only all power equipment must be shut down, but even all personnel cannot make sounds or move.You know, the anti-submarine sonar is very sensitive now, and any change can't escape their ears.The soldier's words aroused dissatisfaction with his chief, who glared at the soldier, and the soldier immediately shut his mouth.
But the captain is an old god, and he has thoroughly studied the performance of the submarine.Due to the on-board Suzaku power equipment adopted by the submarine, the noise generated is smaller than that of nuclear power equipment.Due to the abundant deuterium and tritium resources in seawater, the Suzaku power equipment can automatically obtain the corresponding raw materials from seawater through the hydrogen isotope collector. If it is not for human beings to eat, this new type of submarine can lurk indefinitely on the seabed.As for fresh water and oxygen, since the power generated by the Suzaku power plant is very abundant, the submarine can produce fresh water and oxygen by itself.
As fresh water resources are no longer tense, the new submarines have also improved the living standards of the crew.In the past, except for the Typhoon-class super nuclear submarine of the Soviet Union, because of its abundant power and huge internal space, it was extravagant to build a sauna in the submarine!The crew of other people's family can only wipe their bodies with water once in a while, but the Soviet submarine crew can take a bath while performing missions!
However, although Huaxia's new submarine has plenty of power, the interior area of the boat is not as large as the typhoon class, so the public bathhouse in the submarine only has a shower room, and the bathing pool may have to wait.But even with only a shower room, the crew is still a rarity.Although the new submarine uses a lot of new equipment and new materials, the size of many equipment in the submarine has been reduced a lot.However, the vacated space in the boat is naturally the priority for storing weapons and living supplies.Therefore, the actual space in the boat has not expanded much, and the exhaust equipment in the boat cannot completely imitate the open grassland, so it feels a bit stuffy.Therefore, everyone likes the shower room very much, and the designer probably knows that the public bathhouse will be very popular, so the living and entertainment area of the submarine is placed next to the bathhouse.After taking a shower, you can play computer games, or watch TV or something.
In addition to the Suzaku nuclear fusion power equipment, the submarine's propeller and hull design are also the pinnacle of domestic bionics.The captain knew that the submarine was imitating a species of whale commonly found in the Pacific Ocean, which is distributed along the Pacific coast.When most of the sonar photos come over, it will only feel like a whale.Since this kind of whale is quite common in the Pacific Ocean, and occasionally seen in the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, it will not cause tension on enemy warships.
In addition, the hull of the boat has several layers.For example, the outermost shell is mainly able to cope with the extreme weather of the seabed, and at the same time absorb most of the sound, and has a certain stealth function in front of the sonar.The following shells are characterized mainly in terms of robustness, toughness, and sound and heat insulation.The heat capacity of water is greater than that of land, so in summer, even though the shore is already a little cold, the sea is still warm.Similarly, as the diving depth of the submarine increases, in addition to coping with the water pressure, it must also deal with the low temperature of the seabed.
Although the submarine side and the warship side are "enemies and friends" in the exercise, after all, this is an exercise, so according to the rule, as long as one side is locked by the other side's fire control radar, it will be considered a failure.Now the submarine dare not get too close to the warship, because the warship has put down the towing sonar, which can be regarded as the ultimate anti-submarine move of the warship.The role of the towing sonar is to form a three-dimensional monitoring network under sea level. Although the submarine can simulate a whale on the sound pattern, once it is covered by the three-dimensional sonar, it can be judged immediately when the shape comes out. A submarine or a whale.
Seeing the opponent release such a big killer, the three submarines dispersed in a tacit understanding.The towing sonar is indeed strong, but the area it can monitor is still limited, so all three submarines chose to actively avoid.However, three submarines deal with a warship, and the warship does not have an advantage here.Submarine tactics are like this. As long as they have an advantage in the early stage, they can snowball and crush the place to death in the later stage.Therefore, they had a numerical advantage in the early stage. In the eyes of the captains of the three submarines, this warship, which was still struggling to find itself, was simply prey that could be eaten immediately.
"Captain, we are locked! We are locked by three fire control radars from three directions!" The radar soldiers immediately issued an alarm.
"Tut!" The captain knew that he couldn't fight like this.
In actual combat, once a warship is attacked by three submarines from three different directions, it is basically a dead end.So in the exercise, being locked on by three fire control radars is considered a failure.Because if it's just a fire control radar, it takes time for the weapon to lock on to launch, and the locked party can still use evasive actions to escape.This is also allowed in the exercise, but the captain can only raise the white flag when the three fire control radars lock on it.
According to the standard handling procedure for a defeat, the captain pointed the muzzles of all artillery pieces at the sky, then turned off all radars and sonars, and at the same time stopped the power equipment.
"Where are these ghosts hiding?" the captain was a little puzzled.Although he knew that the new submarine had been upgraded in terms of noise prevention and power system, it wouldn't be impossible to detect even a little sound, right?
The results of this small-scale exercise test were naturally reported to the Military Aircraft Department and the Senate. Everyone was a little unbelievable when they saw the almost crushing victory.Submarines have always been the main force of the Chinese navy, and it is also the most annoying point for Americans.However, there are still some disadvantages of submarines. For example, the submarine's long-distance combat capability is limited.And with the upgrading of anti-submarine technology, it has become increasingly difficult for conventional submarines to hide in front of naval powers like the US Navy.Especially for the aircraft carrier battle group encountered, the Huaxia Navy does not think that its submarines have much advantage.Therefore, the Huaxia Navy, which uses submarines as its main force, is considered a coastal defense navy. It mainly uses the number of submarines and the understanding of the sea conditions near the sea to repel the invading enemy.
But if you want to upgrade from a coastal defense navy to an offshore navy, or even a deep-sea navy, not only submarines, but also warships must be upgraded, as well as aircraft carriers and battleships.If the U.S. intelligence agencies know that the Huaxia Navy has restarted the battleship plan while developing the aircraft carrier battle group, they will definitely think that Huaxia is crazy.Since the end of World War II, almost all naval powers believe that battleships should be eliminated as an "old" and "outdated" type of ship; while aircraft carriers and aircraft carrier battle groups are the main form of the future navy. .Therefore, Britain and Germany, which loved to build battleships back then, also accepted this statement. Even after World War II, Britain took the initiative to dismantle many battleships that were still in service.However, the Huaxia Navy's plan to restart the battleship is based on the brand-new battleship built after Huaxia has mastered new energy and new material technologies.
Under normal circumstances, battleships give people the impression of "heavily armored cannons".That is to say, on the naval battlefield, the battleship is a muscular Viking man. He is not only physically strong but also wears heavy armor, and uses a giant sword and a thick shield.Therefore, battleships are not only powerful in combat effectiveness, but also powerful in survivability.Basically, a heavy battleship is enough to bring the navy of a small country to its knees.But why are battleships abandoned by navies of various countries?The reason is very simple, the cost and consumption of battleships are too large, and the most terrible thing is that the speed of battleships is not fast enough.If the opponent sends a few submarines to use wolf pack tactics, the battleship will basically fall.
Compared with an aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier itself is fast enough, and its anti-strike capability is also strong enough.The important thing is that the battle group centered on the aircraft carrier can cooperate with the attack and defense of the aircraft carrier in three dimensions by sea, land and air.In addition, the aircraft carried by the aircraft carrier can be defensive or offensive; and it is no problem for people to attack from a distance.
If you want to compare it, a battleship is like a berserker, and an aircraft carrier is like a summoner.Fortunately, the cost of equipment and potions for an excellent berserker is much higher than that of a summoner, and at the same time, the agility of a summoner is higher than that of a berserker.Once the summoner is flying the kite, he is constantly summoning to consume the berserker.Even if the aircraft carrier is alone against the battleship, the chance of failure of the battleship will be much higher.In addition to continuing to pack meat and output for this naval berserker, Huaxia's new battleship also invented many new equipment to reduce the cost of the battleship.Most importantly, due to the use of new power equipment, Huaxia's battleship is equivalent to giving the Berserker extremely high agility.
Imagine, when playing "World of Warcraft", the opponent's berserker suddenly possesses the speed and stealth ability of an assassin, isn't it scary?And in addition, the use of electromagnetic guns has greatly expanded the combat radius of battleships, and it is completely possible to achieve beyond-the-horizon strikes.Therefore, after correcting the shortcomings of battleships, the advantages of battleships will come out.The combat capability of individual soldiers alone is enough to crush the navies of most countries, and Huaxia must equip them.In the future, Huaxia will see which monkey in Southeast Asia is upset, and it will be enough to swing the giant ship's cannon at its door.
"Is this the assembly factory for individual mechas?" Not long after Lin Jinqi returned to Xuanwu Base, he took General Wang to a newly built factory building.Compared with other factories, the whole factory is completely enclosed without any windows.Several exhaust outlets are placed in rather concealed places.Therefore, the whole factory building looked more like a huge cement coffin to General Wang. He was a little puzzled, and frowned, "I said Xiao Linzi, although this thing is highly confidential, you don't have to treat comrade workers harshly, do you?" How can your workers and comrades bear this kind of fully enclosed processing factory?"
"The reason why it is fully enclosed is the reason for keeping it secret, but it is definitely not the most important." Lin Jinqi thought that he would not know how advanced the technology is until you enter. "Since the entire mecha parts need to be formed in one piece, so for The precision of the mech itself and the equipment it carries has very high requirements. The whole factory is not only dust-free, but even vacuum.”
"Vacuum? How do workers do things?" General Wang immediately imagined a group of workers wearing oxygen cylinders to work.
"Old General, why don't I take you in for a look." Lin Jinqi led General Wang to the entrance of the factory.
After checking at the entrance, there is a fork in the road ahead.
"Let's go to the observation place." Lin Jinqi pointed to the road on the left, "If you walk to the observation place, you don't need to change clothes and take a shower; if it's the maintenance place, you have to go through seven stages of dust removal and change into special work clothes."
Lin Jinqi explained a little.Walking to the observation office, it didn't take long before an elevator appeared in front of everyone.Lin Jinqi opened the elevator and walked in with General Wang.The elevator ascended quickly but smoothly and quietly, and soon reached the top of the factory.There is a special channel on the top of the factory for people to inspect here, and the factory is basically full of robotic arms and robots performing fully automatic processing.
"In addition to processing individual mechas, any equipment can be processed here. All that is needed is to let the artificial intelligence know the drawings and give it some time to make adjustments to the robots and mechanical arms in the factory."
Looking down from the high transparent corridor, the robot is in a hurry, and the mechanical arm is also busy.General Wang seemed to see the future, and asked in surprise: "Can this factory be promoted? How much does it cost?"
Lin Jinqi reported a number to General Wang, who was silent for a while.In terms of price, it is really a conscience price.But the country has too many places to spend recently, and it would be really difficult to build a few more robot factories.Finally, General Wang sighed, "It seems that in recent years, such factories can only be found here."
"General, do you want to try our mecha?" Lin Jinqi knew that General Wang was in a bad mood, so he changed the subject.
"Can I try it on? Doesn't it mean that soldiers with high education and excellent physical strength need to be specially selected to drive a mecha?"
"That's for combat purposes." After Lin Jinqi and General Wang returned from a distance, they walked to the nearby secret warehouse. "However, although we have adopted a lot of new materials, the weight of the mech is still there. Therefore, we need someone to assist in the wearing process. We can't put it on and take it off automatically like "Iron Man". At the same time, if it is not activated power system, it is impossible to control this mecha, after all, the weight of the entire mecha is about 3 tons."
With the help of the staff, General Wang put on a set of individual mechas.After the mecha is worn, the scanner on the top of the helmet scans the wearer's iris and face; at the same time, the palm part of the mecha also reads the wearer's palm prints and fingerprints.After all the data is determined, the artificial intelligence prompts General Wang to activate the power equipment.The operation of the mech is basically based on voice operation, and artificial intelligence will provide assistance.After starting the power system, General Wang stood up easily wearing a 3-ton mech.General Wang, who is wearing a good individual mecha, is about 190 centimeters tall, but his body is not bloated.
After getting out of the mech, General Wang was a little out of breath, but still very excited. "Can I still carry 3 tons?"
"That's because there is an exoskeleton supporting the weight for you." Lin Jinqi explained, "So before you activate the system, you don't have the superpower to play like this. Old general, are you satisfied with this set of individual equipment?"
"Very satisfied! It has completely exceeded my imagination!" General Wang said with satisfaction.Although due to the limited environment, General Wang was not arranged to test the weapons equipped with the armor.However, General Wang has seen the prototypes of these weapons and knows their test results, so General Wang is very clear about the combat capabilities of a single mech soldier.With the help of the staff, General Wang took off the mecha.He then watches with interest as workers inspect the components before packing them into storage.But General Wang suddenly thought of something, he said to Lin Jinqi, "I remember that exoskeleton can help paralyzed people stand up?"
"Basically yes, but it needs specific analysis." Lin Jinqi explained to General Wang, "The root cause of paralysis is that the brain cannot direct the body, and this can be divided into three situations. The first situation is that the brain itself has a problem, such as Stroke. If this is the case, we can only find ways to do rehabilitation, and it is basically impossible to return to the previous situation.
The second situation is that there is a problem with the signal transmission channel, such as a damaged spine or a major problem with the nerves at the end of the limb.The third situation is that there is a problem with the limbs, which makes it impossible to execute the commands of the brain.In the second and third cases, exoskeletons can be considered to help the patient stand up again and restore a certain ability to work.
But where is the criticism of the exoskeleton in the past?The main reason is that the material is relatively heavy. If aviation-grade materials are used, the cost cannot be controlled. It is very difficult to make an exoskeleton for ordinary patients.In addition, the artificial intelligence carried by the exoskeleton is not smart enough to assist humans in completing commands to the skeleton.Therefore, the current research prospects of medical exoskeletons are not clear, and such major operations cannot be performed. "
"Boy Lin, if I need you to order an exoskeleton for me, how far can you do it?" the general asked.
"I need the case report of this person, especially the diagnosis results of the doctors of neurology and brain surgery." Lin Jinqi said, "I have to read these materials before I can judge whether it can be produced or not."
"I see. I'll arrange for someone to send you a letter of his case report." General Wang said impatiently.
Lin Jinqi nodded, said goodbye to General Wang, and returned to his office.
Soon, an internal email was sent to Lin Jinqi's mailbox.Lin Jinqi clicked on it, and it was indeed a certain person's case and physical examination report.The most recent medical report was last month; the oldest case reports date back to the 1980s.According to the case, this person should have been injured by a shrapnel in the lumbar spine, resulting in complete paralysis from the waist down.For medical exoskeletons, this seems like a pretty easy case to deal with.After two days of analysis, Lin Jinqi and the other hospital understood the treatment process, and then determined the entire plan.
After Lin Jinqi discussed the medical plan with General Wang, General Wang also agreed to the plan.
"This injured person is a company commander in my army. When he was dealing with the monkeys, he stepped on a mine. In order to protect other comrades, his lumbar spine was hit by shrapnel. Although we have thought of many ways , but there is no way to make him stand up again. He was an extremely strong man before, but now..." General Wang couldn't bear to say.
On a certain rest day, General Wang took Lin Jinqi to a nursing home in a certain military region in Gui Province, and then met the person General Wang mentioned.Although he smiled very happily when he saw General Wang, the loneliness in his eyes could not be fooled.He said: "General, why are you here again? You don't have much subsidies, don't waste money on the road. I am here very well, and you arranged me very well. You see, I am here again than you last time." See how many kilograms I have gained."
"I brought a person to see you this time." General Wang pointed to Lin Jinqi, "This is Dr. Lin, some of his identity needs to be kept secret, but I can tell you his public identity. You should listen Did you talk about Horizon Biotechnology Company and Horizon Medical Technology Company? He is the boss of these two companies, and he is also the chief development engineer of several products that these two companies are most proud of. So, I brought him here The purpose is very simple, just to see if it can help you stand up."
Of course, he has heard the names of Horizon Bio and Horizon Medicine. After all, for a person who has lost the ability to move, most of the things he does every day are watching TV and surfing the Internet.As he is concerned about the development of the country, he certainly knows the strengths of these two companies. When the cancer targeted therapy technology was announced, he began to imagine when he would be able to stand up.Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, no relevant technology appeared, which made him a little disappointed.Now that I can see the chief executives of these two companies, then I will have a final result on whether I can stand up.If you can't stand up, then you can't stand up.He comforted himself like this.
"I have read your case and the recent routine medical examination reports, and it is not difficult to help you stand up." Lin Jinqi said, "Even our laboratory has a technology to help nerve cells regenerate, but it is not yet mature. Therefore, I have no way to rebuild your lumbar nerves to make you stand up and walk, but I have an auxiliary system that can help you do this. Do you want to try it? But I must remind you that its initial effect Maybe not as good as you think."
"Xiao Lin, what is the difference between nerve cell regeneration and exoskeleton?" General Wang was a little confused.
"The exoskeleton is to build another movement system outside his body, and then use artificial intelligence to sense his behavioral purpose, so as to judge the movements such as standing up, sitting down, walking, running and turning. I can only solve his movement problems , but he has some other problems, such as excretion." Lin Jinqi said very cryptically.He knew that the injured man's lumbar spine injury not only affected his ability to move his lower limbs, but also made him unable to control his bladder and bowels. "And if he wants to achieve the same athletic ability as before, he needs to constantly run in with this system. On the one hand, he has to teach the artificial intelligence how to understand his operation commands; on the other hand, his muscles have actually appeared during the years of recuperation. Shrunken, so it needs a lot of exercise and massage to recover."
"Dr. Lin, before you said these things to me, I even thought it would be the greatest luck for me to be able to sit up one day. Now you tell me that I can not only stand up and sit down, but also walk, run, turn, jump, Do you know how big this happiness is? I am not a greedy person, and I know there must be many imperfections in it. But I don't care, what I want now is to stand up!" He said sincerely, "I can learn to walk like those Even if my nose is bruised and my face is swollen, I won’t regret it.”
"If you have the perseverance, then let's start with the first step." Lin Jinqi called a doctor and decided to do a detailed examination of his physical condition, while making customized fine-tuning of the exoskeleton system.Before officially wearing it, he still needs some restorative treatment and massage to ensure that several key muscles can function.Since both Lin Jinqi and General Wang had a very tight schedule, they left after ordering the details and leaving relevant instructions.
Five days later, in the military sanatorium in Guangxi Province, several neurology and orthopedic doctors were preparing to witness the moment of miracles.According to past medical common sense, the paralysis caused by spinal nerve damage is irreversible.As organisms evolve, the cells of higher organisms become more specialized.The cells of lower organisms usually don't have so many professional classifications, so after a part of the tissue is damaged, it can be handed over to any part to reproduce and regenerate.But as far as humans are concerned, the only organs that can regenerate in humans are the skin and liver.If other organs can also regenerate in this way, human beings will really be super gods.However, in the present case, the free movement is not achieved through the regeneration of nerve cells, but the use of exoskeleton technology, which can be regarded as cheating.
In a ward, a thin but unyielding man supported his body, and he didn't have a strand of hair on his body.On the one hand, some monitoring instruments need to be in direct contact with his skin, and on the other hand, this exoskeleton device is also needed.The doctor first helped to make the waist of the exoskeleton in contact with his waist skin, then the two exoskeletons and joints were bound to the left leg and the right leg respectively, and finally a bionic foot cover was placed on the foot.Due to the need to sense the bioelectricity of the muscles under the skin, there is also a pair of pants made of special materials between the exoskeleton and the human body.It looks a lot like the tight trousers worn by athletes, but there seems to be some kind of circuit on it.After everything was installed, the doctor said, "I'm going to need to put this thing in direct contact with your spine later, it's going to hurt a little bit, so bear with it."
"It's okay! Actually, for me, what bothers me more is that it's not easy to go to the toilet in these pants." He joked.
The doctor smiled, and touched the probe to the center of his back.After the detector was activated, several tiny tentacles pierced under the skin immediately, and then directly connected to the spine instead of the nervous system of the lower body.Unlike the paralyzed lower body, there is feeling here.Although the tingling sensation of such a tiny metal wire can be ignored, he couldn't help shivering even though he had been on the battlefield when he thought of these things getting into the body from the outside and trying to make contact with the spine.Fortunately, everything went well. The green light on the probe indicated that the probe had been connected to the spine, and the doctor reminded him to think about how to walk.
He recalled how he walked with some embarrassment. In fact, walking is a very complicated movement for creatures.It took tens of thousands of years for the ancient ape to learn to walk upright and become an ape again.
During the time when China kept a low profile, the islands in the South China Sea were gradually invaded by monkeys who didn't know what to do or what to do.However, with the strengthening of China's navy, the islands in the South China Sea are slowly returning to China's control.So far, the Dongsha Islands, Zhongsha Islands, and Xisha Islands are basically within the control of China; and the more controversial places are in the Nansha Islands.
The Nansha Islands are the islands that occupy the largest sea area among the South China Sea Islands. At the same time, because they are far away from China's mainland, China's control is relatively weak.At present, the central and southern parts of the Nansha Islands are under the control of Malay monkeys; the northeast is under the control of Philippine monkeys;Although Huaxia does not currently have an advantage in the number of islands controlled, it has laid its own nails in key positions.
Reefs such as Subi Reef, Fiery Cross Reef and Mischief Reef have evolved into islands due to the uncanny craftsmanship of nature. From the beginning, it was difficult to even have a lighthouse to a permanent settlement island with airports, camps, hospitals and other military and civilian facilities.And even better, the three new islands form a large triangle, so they can serve as horns militarily.With the actual control area formed by these three islands, new islands were slowly born under the wonderful hand of nature.Then the industrious Chinese will build houses, airports and lighthouses on these new islands at an unimaginable speed.
Faced with such a tacit cooperation between China and nature, the monkeys in Southeast Asia can only use the "big summoning technique"-summoning eagle sauce.But for the rabbit's behavior of repairing the island, although Yingjiang can't understand it, it's hard to say anything.After all, the instigator of the Xiudao incident was initiated by Yingjiang's loyal running dog in Asia, the Foot Pot Chicken.Moreover, the foot pot chicken used its own economic advantages to convince the international community that it was "legal".As a result, Ying Jiang was dissatisfied that although the foot pot chicken was the pioneer of the "Supernatural Workmanship", it is now completely behind the rabbit.Not only is the speed behind, but even the technology is behind.
Back then, the reason why the foot pot chicken created the "Supernatural Workmanship" was to turn Okinotori Reef into Okinotori Island, and then ran to the East China Sea and South China Sea to get a share of the pie.But to this day, the Okinotori Reef Shoal, which has been protected by a lot of money, has not yet become Okinotori Island, but there are still signs of decline.Then check, I don’t know who lost some starfish that love to eat coral polyps here.
A cruiser that has just replenished supplies from Yongshu Reef is sailing slowly in the South China Sea, and they are currently conducting a secret military exercise.According to the exercise data they obtained, three "enemy" submarines are lurking in the South China Sea, and their task is to find out these three submarines.In the early days, the Huaxia Navy focused on the development of submarines due to many shackles in capital and technology.
After all, submarines are relatively cost-effective weapons in the navy, especially for countries with weak navies that cannot gain control of the sea, submarines are simply an important barrier to protect their own coastal defense lines.After all, the "wolf pack tactics" invented by the Germans are still considered effective today, even though the current anti-submarine technology has been upgraded for several generations.Although "Sun Tzu's Art of War" also emphasizes that "soldiers use righteousness and odds to win", but it has to be admitted that submarines are somewhat powerless against aircraft carrier battle groups.Therefore, in addition to continuing to upgrade submarines, China's navy has also strengthened the construction of warships.
"Captain, I used to think that they were working hard on the island, but I didn't expect them to live a happy life now." Seeing that there is no mission now, an orderly started chatting with the captain, "It's only when we go to the island. I took a quick shower."
"That's now, a year earlier you knew how hard it was." The captain snorted.
"Didn't you see that wind power equipment was built on the island? That is the latest wind power technology researched by the country. A few pieces of equipment are enough to meet the needs of the officers, soldiers and other personnel stationed on the island. With electricity, the island can be well developed. Especially the fresh water. Now the fresh water on the island is obtained by the reverse osmosis membrane seawater desalination technology driven by electricity. If there is not enough electricity, where can we build a seawater desalination plant? In the past, this thing was only used by those big dogs in the Middle East Now we can not only afford it, but also use it better than them. Our desalinated sea water will be divided into two parts, one part is domestic water, such as watering, bathing, etc.; the other part is drinking water, which needs to be Perform an ion purification to make the water taste more like the water we used on land. By the way, in order to ensure the health of the officers and soldiers stationed on the island and the common people, these waters have to be artificially added with minerals at the end. So we drink Although the water is not as rare as mineral water, it is still mineral water. In the past, not to mention mineral water, it would be nice to have a mouthful of fresh water to drink. If there is a typhoon, the supply ship can’t get on the island, and that kind of thing is bad. You have to drink fresh water too!"
"These benefits only come after the country's science and technology advances." The herald sighed. "By the way, Captain, I heard that there are new warships about to be launched? Are our troops qualified to deploy? I heard that the new ships are quite impressive?"
"Why, you kid want to get off my ship?" The captain rolled his eyes at the messenger, "I can tell you, that new ship is indeed majestic, and I am greedy to see it. Tsk tsk, the cruising speed can reach 30 Knots, the limit speed can run up to 45 knots. It’s no problem to chase a nuclear-powered aircraft carrier at this speed. It can’t climb us at all. There are also those new weapons, at least half of which are estimated that even the Americans have never heard of them. But Let me also tell you that the technology content of this new ship is too high. Although it is assisted by an artificial intelligence system, there are still regulations on it. Want to join the ship? You have a bachelor's degree. Boy, I remember you came to join the army in high school, right? You If you really want to go, I recommend you to go to the military academy next year. But if you don’t pass the exam, then don’t blame me.”
"The basic requirement for boarding a ship is a bachelor's degree? Isn't that too high?" In fact, the messenger chose to join the army after graduating from high school because he didn't want to study.Unexpectedly, after entering the army, I found that the army is also very eager for highly educated soldiers.In the past, high school soldiers had some advantages, but now with the joining of a large number of military school students and university students, high school soldiers are naturally not rare. "Isn't it true that the captains of the new ships have to graduate with Ph. Ds? Then where can we find so many captains?"
"Not only do you need to graduate with a doctorate, but you also need two doctorate degrees." The captain held up two fingers and said, "I can tell you, you are still young and can still go to school. So hurry up and prepare for the exam. Otherwise, you will really be eliminated in the future."
While the captain and the messenger were discussing, three submarines quietly approached the battleship like ghosts.Submarine warfare and anti-submarine warfare have always been hot spots in naval tactical research, but they remain the same.A submarine is like an assassin of the navy. It is a good submarine only when it approaches the enemy silently and can kill the enemy instantly.
In particular, the word "quiet" is even more vital to the life of a submarine. After all, if a submarine is to sail on the bottom of the sea, it will definitely have a sound.In particular, the diesel-powered submarines of Huaxia in the early years were ridiculed by the Americans for several years, jokingly saying that "as long as the Chinese submarines are turned on, the entire Pacific Ocean will be awakened."Therefore, how to reduce the noise of submarine driving equipment and reduce the resistance noise when the submarine is sailing has always been the key to the study of submarine upgrades in various countries.Compared with diesel-powered submarines, nuclear-powered submarines are much less noisy. Although they will still be detected by anti-submarine equipment, they will not "wake up the entire Pacific Ocean as soon as they are turned on."But these three submarines are experimental submarines of the Navy. They have been upgraded from power equipment to submarine painting, and they are completely new submarines.
"Those fools haven't found us yet." A soldier in the submarine whispered.
During the silent period before the submarine operation, not only all power equipment must be shut down, but even all personnel cannot make sounds or move.You know, the anti-submarine sonar is very sensitive now, and any change can't escape their ears.The soldier's words aroused dissatisfaction with his chief, who glared at the soldier, and the soldier immediately shut his mouth.
But the captain is an old god, and he has thoroughly studied the performance of the submarine.Due to the on-board Suzaku power equipment adopted by the submarine, the noise generated is smaller than that of nuclear power equipment.Due to the abundant deuterium and tritium resources in seawater, the Suzaku power equipment can automatically obtain the corresponding raw materials from seawater through the hydrogen isotope collector. If it is not for human beings to eat, this new type of submarine can lurk indefinitely on the seabed.As for fresh water and oxygen, since the power generated by the Suzaku power plant is very abundant, the submarine can produce fresh water and oxygen by itself.
As fresh water resources are no longer tense, the new submarines have also improved the living standards of the crew.In the past, except for the Typhoon-class super nuclear submarine of the Soviet Union, because of its abundant power and huge internal space, it was extravagant to build a sauna in the submarine!The crew of other people's family can only wipe their bodies with water once in a while, but the Soviet submarine crew can take a bath while performing missions!
However, although Huaxia's new submarine has plenty of power, the interior area of the boat is not as large as the typhoon class, so the public bathhouse in the submarine only has a shower room, and the bathing pool may have to wait.But even with only a shower room, the crew is still a rarity.Although the new submarine uses a lot of new equipment and new materials, the size of many equipment in the submarine has been reduced a lot.However, the vacated space in the boat is naturally the priority for storing weapons and living supplies.Therefore, the actual space in the boat has not expanded much, and the exhaust equipment in the boat cannot completely imitate the open grassland, so it feels a bit stuffy.Therefore, everyone likes the shower room very much, and the designer probably knows that the public bathhouse will be very popular, so the living and entertainment area of the submarine is placed next to the bathhouse.After taking a shower, you can play computer games, or watch TV or something.
In addition to the Suzaku nuclear fusion power equipment, the submarine's propeller and hull design are also the pinnacle of domestic bionics.The captain knew that the submarine was imitating a species of whale commonly found in the Pacific Ocean, which is distributed along the Pacific coast.When most of the sonar photos come over, it will only feel like a whale.Since this kind of whale is quite common in the Pacific Ocean, and occasionally seen in the Indian Ocean and the Atlantic Ocean, it will not cause tension on enemy warships.
In addition, the hull of the boat has several layers.For example, the outermost shell is mainly able to cope with the extreme weather of the seabed, and at the same time absorb most of the sound, and has a certain stealth function in front of the sonar.The following shells are characterized mainly in terms of robustness, toughness, and sound and heat insulation.The heat capacity of water is greater than that of land, so in summer, even though the shore is already a little cold, the sea is still warm.Similarly, as the diving depth of the submarine increases, in addition to coping with the water pressure, it must also deal with the low temperature of the seabed.
Although the submarine side and the warship side are "enemies and friends" in the exercise, after all, this is an exercise, so according to the rule, as long as one side is locked by the other side's fire control radar, it will be considered a failure.Now the submarine dare not get too close to the warship, because the warship has put down the towing sonar, which can be regarded as the ultimate anti-submarine move of the warship.The role of the towing sonar is to form a three-dimensional monitoring network under sea level. Although the submarine can simulate a whale on the sound pattern, once it is covered by the three-dimensional sonar, it can be judged immediately when the shape comes out. A submarine or a whale.
Seeing the opponent release such a big killer, the three submarines dispersed in a tacit understanding.The towing sonar is indeed strong, but the area it can monitor is still limited, so all three submarines chose to actively avoid.However, three submarines deal with a warship, and the warship does not have an advantage here.Submarine tactics are like this. As long as they have an advantage in the early stage, they can snowball and crush the place to death in the later stage.Therefore, they had a numerical advantage in the early stage. In the eyes of the captains of the three submarines, this warship, which was still struggling to find itself, was simply prey that could be eaten immediately.
"Captain, we are locked! We are locked by three fire control radars from three directions!" The radar soldiers immediately issued an alarm.
"Tut!" The captain knew that he couldn't fight like this.
In actual combat, once a warship is attacked by three submarines from three different directions, it is basically a dead end.So in the exercise, being locked on by three fire control radars is considered a failure.Because if it's just a fire control radar, it takes time for the weapon to lock on to launch, and the locked party can still use evasive actions to escape.This is also allowed in the exercise, but the captain can only raise the white flag when the three fire control radars lock on it.
According to the standard handling procedure for a defeat, the captain pointed the muzzles of all artillery pieces at the sky, then turned off all radars and sonars, and at the same time stopped the power equipment.
"Where are these ghosts hiding?" the captain was a little puzzled.Although he knew that the new submarine had been upgraded in terms of noise prevention and power system, it wouldn't be impossible to detect even a little sound, right?
The results of this small-scale exercise test were naturally reported to the Military Aircraft Department and the Senate. Everyone was a little unbelievable when they saw the almost crushing victory.Submarines have always been the main force of the Chinese navy, and it is also the most annoying point for Americans.However, there are still some disadvantages of submarines. For example, the submarine's long-distance combat capability is limited.And with the upgrading of anti-submarine technology, it has become increasingly difficult for conventional submarines to hide in front of naval powers like the US Navy.Especially for the aircraft carrier battle group encountered, the Huaxia Navy does not think that its submarines have much advantage.Therefore, the Huaxia Navy, which uses submarines as its main force, is considered a coastal defense navy. It mainly uses the number of submarines and the understanding of the sea conditions near the sea to repel the invading enemy.
But if you want to upgrade from a coastal defense navy to an offshore navy, or even a deep-sea navy, not only submarines, but also warships must be upgraded, as well as aircraft carriers and battleships.If the U.S. intelligence agencies know that the Huaxia Navy has restarted the battleship plan while developing the aircraft carrier battle group, they will definitely think that Huaxia is crazy.Since the end of World War II, almost all naval powers believe that battleships should be eliminated as an "old" and "outdated" type of ship; while aircraft carriers and aircraft carrier battle groups are the main form of the future navy. .Therefore, Britain and Germany, which loved to build battleships back then, also accepted this statement. Even after World War II, Britain took the initiative to dismantle many battleships that were still in service.However, the Huaxia Navy's plan to restart the battleship is based on the brand-new battleship built after Huaxia has mastered new energy and new material technologies.
Under normal circumstances, battleships give people the impression of "heavily armored cannons".That is to say, on the naval battlefield, the battleship is a muscular Viking man. He is not only physically strong but also wears heavy armor, and uses a giant sword and a thick shield.Therefore, battleships are not only powerful in combat effectiveness, but also powerful in survivability.Basically, a heavy battleship is enough to bring the navy of a small country to its knees.But why are battleships abandoned by navies of various countries?The reason is very simple, the cost and consumption of battleships are too large, and the most terrible thing is that the speed of battleships is not fast enough.If the opponent sends a few submarines to use wolf pack tactics, the battleship will basically fall.
Compared with an aircraft carrier, the aircraft carrier itself is fast enough, and its anti-strike capability is also strong enough.The important thing is that the battle group centered on the aircraft carrier can cooperate with the attack and defense of the aircraft carrier in three dimensions by sea, land and air.In addition, the aircraft carried by the aircraft carrier can be defensive or offensive; and it is no problem for people to attack from a distance.
If you want to compare it, a battleship is like a berserker, and an aircraft carrier is like a summoner.Fortunately, the cost of equipment and potions for an excellent berserker is much higher than that of a summoner, and at the same time, the agility of a summoner is higher than that of a berserker.Once the summoner is flying the kite, he is constantly summoning to consume the berserker.Even if the aircraft carrier is alone against the battleship, the chance of failure of the battleship will be much higher.In addition to continuing to pack meat and output for this naval berserker, Huaxia's new battleship also invented many new equipment to reduce the cost of the battleship.Most importantly, due to the use of new power equipment, Huaxia's battleship is equivalent to giving the Berserker extremely high agility.
Imagine, when playing "World of Warcraft", the opponent's berserker suddenly possesses the speed and stealth ability of an assassin, isn't it scary?And in addition, the use of electromagnetic guns has greatly expanded the combat radius of battleships, and it is completely possible to achieve beyond-the-horizon strikes.Therefore, after correcting the shortcomings of battleships, the advantages of battleships will come out.The combat capability of individual soldiers alone is enough to crush the navies of most countries, and Huaxia must equip them.In the future, Huaxia will see which monkey in Southeast Asia is upset, and it will be enough to swing the giant ship's cannon at its door.
"Is this the assembly factory for individual mechas?" Not long after Lin Jinqi returned to Xuanwu Base, he took General Wang to a newly built factory building.Compared with other factories, the whole factory is completely enclosed without any windows.Several exhaust outlets are placed in rather concealed places.Therefore, the whole factory building looked more like a huge cement coffin to General Wang. He was a little puzzled, and frowned, "I said Xiao Linzi, although this thing is highly confidential, you don't have to treat comrade workers harshly, do you?" How can your workers and comrades bear this kind of fully enclosed processing factory?"
"The reason why it is fully enclosed is the reason for keeping it secret, but it is definitely not the most important." Lin Jinqi thought that he would not know how advanced the technology is until you enter. "Since the entire mecha parts need to be formed in one piece, so for The precision of the mech itself and the equipment it carries has very high requirements. The whole factory is not only dust-free, but even vacuum.”
"Vacuum? How do workers do things?" General Wang immediately imagined a group of workers wearing oxygen cylinders to work.
"Old General, why don't I take you in for a look." Lin Jinqi led General Wang to the entrance of the factory.
After checking at the entrance, there is a fork in the road ahead.
"Let's go to the observation place." Lin Jinqi pointed to the road on the left, "If you walk to the observation place, you don't need to change clothes and take a shower; if it's the maintenance place, you have to go through seven stages of dust removal and change into special work clothes."
Lin Jinqi explained a little.Walking to the observation office, it didn't take long before an elevator appeared in front of everyone.Lin Jinqi opened the elevator and walked in with General Wang.The elevator ascended quickly but smoothly and quietly, and soon reached the top of the factory.There is a special channel on the top of the factory for people to inspect here, and the factory is basically full of robotic arms and robots performing fully automatic processing.
"In addition to processing individual mechas, any equipment can be processed here. All that is needed is to let the artificial intelligence know the drawings and give it some time to make adjustments to the robots and mechanical arms in the factory."
Looking down from the high transparent corridor, the robot is in a hurry, and the mechanical arm is also busy.General Wang seemed to see the future, and asked in surprise: "Can this factory be promoted? How much does it cost?"
Lin Jinqi reported a number to General Wang, who was silent for a while.In terms of price, it is really a conscience price.But the country has too many places to spend recently, and it would be really difficult to build a few more robot factories.Finally, General Wang sighed, "It seems that in recent years, such factories can only be found here."
"General, do you want to try our mecha?" Lin Jinqi knew that General Wang was in a bad mood, so he changed the subject.
"Can I try it on? Doesn't it mean that soldiers with high education and excellent physical strength need to be specially selected to drive a mecha?"
"That's for combat purposes." After Lin Jinqi and General Wang returned from a distance, they walked to the nearby secret warehouse. "However, although we have adopted a lot of new materials, the weight of the mech is still there. Therefore, we need someone to assist in the wearing process. We can't put it on and take it off automatically like "Iron Man". At the same time, if it is not activated power system, it is impossible to control this mecha, after all, the weight of the entire mecha is about 3 tons."
With the help of the staff, General Wang put on a set of individual mechas.After the mecha is worn, the scanner on the top of the helmet scans the wearer's iris and face; at the same time, the palm part of the mecha also reads the wearer's palm prints and fingerprints.After all the data is determined, the artificial intelligence prompts General Wang to activate the power equipment.The operation of the mech is basically based on voice operation, and artificial intelligence will provide assistance.After starting the power system, General Wang stood up easily wearing a 3-ton mech.General Wang, who is wearing a good individual mecha, is about 190 centimeters tall, but his body is not bloated.
After getting out of the mech, General Wang was a little out of breath, but still very excited. "Can I still carry 3 tons?"
"That's because there is an exoskeleton supporting the weight for you." Lin Jinqi explained, "So before you activate the system, you don't have the superpower to play like this. Old general, are you satisfied with this set of individual equipment?"
"Very satisfied! It has completely exceeded my imagination!" General Wang said with satisfaction.Although due to the limited environment, General Wang was not arranged to test the weapons equipped with the armor.However, General Wang has seen the prototypes of these weapons and knows their test results, so General Wang is very clear about the combat capabilities of a single mech soldier.With the help of the staff, General Wang took off the mecha.He then watches with interest as workers inspect the components before packing them into storage.But General Wang suddenly thought of something, he said to Lin Jinqi, "I remember that exoskeleton can help paralyzed people stand up?"
"Basically yes, but it needs specific analysis." Lin Jinqi explained to General Wang, "The root cause of paralysis is that the brain cannot direct the body, and this can be divided into three situations. The first situation is that the brain itself has a problem, such as Stroke. If this is the case, we can only find ways to do rehabilitation, and it is basically impossible to return to the previous situation.
The second situation is that there is a problem with the signal transmission channel, such as a damaged spine or a major problem with the nerves at the end of the limb.The third situation is that there is a problem with the limbs, which makes it impossible to execute the commands of the brain.In the second and third cases, exoskeletons can be considered to help the patient stand up again and restore a certain ability to work.
But where is the criticism of the exoskeleton in the past?The main reason is that the material is relatively heavy. If aviation-grade materials are used, the cost cannot be controlled. It is very difficult to make an exoskeleton for ordinary patients.In addition, the artificial intelligence carried by the exoskeleton is not smart enough to assist humans in completing commands to the skeleton.Therefore, the current research prospects of medical exoskeletons are not clear, and such major operations cannot be performed. "
"Boy Lin, if I need you to order an exoskeleton for me, how far can you do it?" the general asked.
"I need the case report of this person, especially the diagnosis results of the doctors of neurology and brain surgery." Lin Jinqi said, "I have to read these materials before I can judge whether it can be produced or not."
"I see. I'll arrange for someone to send you a letter of his case report." General Wang said impatiently.
Lin Jinqi nodded, said goodbye to General Wang, and returned to his office.
Soon, an internal email was sent to Lin Jinqi's mailbox.Lin Jinqi clicked on it, and it was indeed a certain person's case and physical examination report.The most recent medical report was last month; the oldest case reports date back to the 1980s.According to the case, this person should have been injured by a shrapnel in the lumbar spine, resulting in complete paralysis from the waist down.For medical exoskeletons, this seems like a pretty easy case to deal with.After two days of analysis, Lin Jinqi and the other hospital understood the treatment process, and then determined the entire plan.
After Lin Jinqi discussed the medical plan with General Wang, General Wang also agreed to the plan.
"This injured person is a company commander in my army. When he was dealing with the monkeys, he stepped on a mine. In order to protect other comrades, his lumbar spine was hit by shrapnel. Although we have thought of many ways , but there is no way to make him stand up again. He was an extremely strong man before, but now..." General Wang couldn't bear to say.
On a certain rest day, General Wang took Lin Jinqi to a nursing home in a certain military region in Gui Province, and then met the person General Wang mentioned.Although he smiled very happily when he saw General Wang, the loneliness in his eyes could not be fooled.He said: "General, why are you here again? You don't have much subsidies, don't waste money on the road. I am here very well, and you arranged me very well. You see, I am here again than you last time." See how many kilograms I have gained."
"I brought a person to see you this time." General Wang pointed to Lin Jinqi, "This is Dr. Lin, some of his identity needs to be kept secret, but I can tell you his public identity. You should listen Did you talk about Horizon Biotechnology Company and Horizon Medical Technology Company? He is the boss of these two companies, and he is also the chief development engineer of several products that these two companies are most proud of. So, I brought him here The purpose is very simple, just to see if it can help you stand up."
Of course, he has heard the names of Horizon Bio and Horizon Medicine. After all, for a person who has lost the ability to move, most of the things he does every day are watching TV and surfing the Internet.As he is concerned about the development of the country, he certainly knows the strengths of these two companies. When the cancer targeted therapy technology was announced, he began to imagine when he would be able to stand up.Unfortunately, after waiting for a long time, no relevant technology appeared, which made him a little disappointed.Now that I can see the chief executives of these two companies, then I will have a final result on whether I can stand up.If you can't stand up, then you can't stand up.He comforted himself like this.
"I have read your case and the recent routine medical examination reports, and it is not difficult to help you stand up." Lin Jinqi said, "Even our laboratory has a technology to help nerve cells regenerate, but it is not yet mature. Therefore, I have no way to rebuild your lumbar nerves to make you stand up and walk, but I have an auxiliary system that can help you do this. Do you want to try it? But I must remind you that its initial effect Maybe not as good as you think."
"Xiao Lin, what is the difference between nerve cell regeneration and exoskeleton?" General Wang was a little confused.
"The exoskeleton is to build another movement system outside his body, and then use artificial intelligence to sense his behavioral purpose, so as to judge the movements such as standing up, sitting down, walking, running and turning. I can only solve his movement problems , but he has some other problems, such as excretion." Lin Jinqi said very cryptically.He knew that the injured man's lumbar spine injury not only affected his ability to move his lower limbs, but also made him unable to control his bladder and bowels. "And if he wants to achieve the same athletic ability as before, he needs to constantly run in with this system. On the one hand, he has to teach the artificial intelligence how to understand his operation commands; on the other hand, his muscles have actually appeared during the years of recuperation. Shrunken, so it needs a lot of exercise and massage to recover."
"Dr. Lin, before you said these things to me, I even thought it would be the greatest luck for me to be able to sit up one day. Now you tell me that I can not only stand up and sit down, but also walk, run, turn, jump, Do you know how big this happiness is? I am not a greedy person, and I know there must be many imperfections in it. But I don't care, what I want now is to stand up!" He said sincerely, "I can learn to walk like those Even if my nose is bruised and my face is swollen, I won’t regret it.”
"If you have the perseverance, then let's start with the first step." Lin Jinqi called a doctor and decided to do a detailed examination of his physical condition, while making customized fine-tuning of the exoskeleton system.Before officially wearing it, he still needs some restorative treatment and massage to ensure that several key muscles can function.Since both Lin Jinqi and General Wang had a very tight schedule, they left after ordering the details and leaving relevant instructions.
Five days later, in the military sanatorium in Guangxi Province, several neurology and orthopedic doctors were preparing to witness the moment of miracles.According to past medical common sense, the paralysis caused by spinal nerve damage is irreversible.As organisms evolve, the cells of higher organisms become more specialized.The cells of lower organisms usually don't have so many professional classifications, so after a part of the tissue is damaged, it can be handed over to any part to reproduce and regenerate.But as far as humans are concerned, the only organs that can regenerate in humans are the skin and liver.If other organs can also regenerate in this way, human beings will really be super gods.However, in the present case, the free movement is not achieved through the regeneration of nerve cells, but the use of exoskeleton technology, which can be regarded as cheating.
In a ward, a thin but unyielding man supported his body, and he didn't have a strand of hair on his body.On the one hand, some monitoring instruments need to be in direct contact with his skin, and on the other hand, this exoskeleton device is also needed.The doctor first helped to make the waist of the exoskeleton in contact with his waist skin, then the two exoskeletons and joints were bound to the left leg and the right leg respectively, and finally a bionic foot cover was placed on the foot.Due to the need to sense the bioelectricity of the muscles under the skin, there is also a pair of pants made of special materials between the exoskeleton and the human body.It looks a lot like the tight trousers worn by athletes, but there seems to be some kind of circuit on it.After everything was installed, the doctor said, "I'm going to need to put this thing in direct contact with your spine later, it's going to hurt a little bit, so bear with it."
"It's okay! Actually, for me, what bothers me more is that it's not easy to go to the toilet in these pants." He joked.
The doctor smiled, and touched the probe to the center of his back.After the detector was activated, several tiny tentacles pierced under the skin immediately, and then directly connected to the spine instead of the nervous system of the lower body.Unlike the paralyzed lower body, there is feeling here.Although the tingling sensation of such a tiny metal wire can be ignored, he couldn't help shivering even though he had been on the battlefield when he thought of these things getting into the body from the outside and trying to make contact with the spine.Fortunately, everything went well. The green light on the probe indicated that the probe had been connected to the spine, and the doctor reminded him to think about how to walk.
He recalled how he walked with some embarrassment. In fact, walking is a very complicated movement for creatures.It took tens of thousands of years for the ancient ape to learn to walk upright and become an ape again.
