Moreover, when these national-level teams of tens of thousands of people were fighting in the simulator, they were not like the Terminator team of Ender and his friends, who covered their heads after connecting to the machine.
When these people join the game, in addition to a specially designed large simulator that allows 1000 people to connect to one device at the same time, they also have their own staff headquarters, their own command personnel, their own dedicated communication channels, their own detection systems, their own damage control personnel, and professional logistics supply systems.
In other words, apart from conducting virtual battles in simulators, the current operations of these national teams, their strict chain of command and division of labor on the battlefield are actually not much different from those on the real battlefield.
……
……
Before the second round of competition officially begins.
All teams have one week to reintegrate.
Needless to say, Ander and the others wanted to find a partner or a flight instructor in the school since they realized their own strength.
Because the number of their fighter planes is a bit small now, and when operating the fighter planes, they lack the combat experience accumulated by the pilots over hundreds of years.
It’s a pity that the average age is too young.
Ender probably thought that the students would be embarrassed to work under a captain younger than them, so all the adults and young students in the school ran away as soon as they saw Ender, leaving him no chance to be recruited into his team.
And it's not just their Terminator squad.
Ander knew that among the top ten teams in the school, the other eight teams named after mythical beasts had not absorbed any new blood.
All reintegrations are carried out among the 80 teams ranked between 11th and 100th in the school.
These teams finally broke the limit of having eleven or twelve members.
After absorbing the 100 lowest-ranked teams in the school, they not only made 100 positions in the top 500 vacant, but also established a reserve team within their own ranks.
However, Ander's team, which had the weakest combat effectiveness among the top ten teams, did not gain nothing.
Colonel Graf found them several fighter division instructors who had retired from the international fleet from Earth.
These instructors did not participate in the battles during the competitions, and even if they did, it would be useless, as they were all old guys in their fifties or sixties, and each of them could only control one or two fighter planes.
However, these instructors taught Ender and his entire team from beginning to end in the simulator all the flying tactics summarized by all human pilots since the emergence of the Air Force.
These instructors were specifically told not to teach them how to do it.
He just objectively demonstrated the fighter planes' movements to them a few times in the simulator and then left them alone.
All the associations and developments need to be explored by Ander and the others on their own.
While Ander and his team were reintegrating and learning, the other teams in the Fortune 500 also began their massive integration operations.
Chapter 426: Several fan groups and fan clubs have entered the top 400
Among the top 500 in the first phase, or the top 400 after the integration, there are no small teams with less than 1,000 people except for the two superpower schools.
But it doesn’t mean that those players who register individually or in scattered teams have no chance.
In fact, in the first stage, although these individuals and small teams were vulnerable when they encountered the top 500 teams that they were unable to resist on the battlefield, there were still masters among them whose personal combat power was far ahead of those members of the national team.
These people failed because they were unlucky enough to encounter enemies that were dozens, hundreds, or even thousands of times their own size, not because of their poor skills.
Fortunately, thanks to a central quantum computer that monitors all competition processes and individual performances.
These people's personal records and highlights, even if they lose before they meet the top 500, their performances will be played and studied repeatedly by local TV stations and government integration recruitment committees.
So that week before phase two started.
In fact, it is to let the top 500 teams show their talents in order to discover and win over the scattered individuals and masters left on the battlefield.
For example, teams from two superpower schools might consider it.
Because this will obviously lower the level of tacit understanding among their team members.
But for other teams with thousands or even tens of thousands of members, it didn't matter. As long as these newly joined masters and members were ready to be deployed and obeyed orders...
Then there will be no problem of cooperation or lack of tacit understanding.
If you really join the army, there may be various coordination issues.
Because not everyone likes life in the barracks.
Not everyone wants to live a life where they have to fold tofu blocks every day, report to use the toilet, call everyone "sir" when they see them, train to death every day, and have no personal privacy.
But this is not joining the army.
At most, when taking collective action, they would coordinate their time and go online together. Although no military official or politician in the world wants human warfare to become more entertaining and frivolous, this is the current trend of technological development.
Therefore, it is also to prepare militia members and reserves in advance in case the army fails.
Military recruiters from various countries will also inspect and register these civilian fighter pilots on the performance list.
Moreover, joining those top 500 teams not only brings a little honor and is reported by the local community and primary and secondary school media, but they can also receive a stipend...
So what's there to be unwilling about?
For these masters of fighter jet combat capabilities, all they have to do is follow orders in the simulator competition and hesitate about which team they want to join.
As for operating real fighter jets, it will never be possible until these people actually join the army or until the Zerg reaches the solar system.
So it was just within a short period of time.
Those recruiting officers and scouts from the "fan club" quickly scrolled down the personal performance list in the computer from top to bottom, and finally expanded the top 400 teams in the world before the start of the second stage of the competition.
Those official national teams also pay attention to their table manners.
For example, the fighter squadron of the international fleet only recruits those who have been fighter squadrons before or have served in the international fleet.
The various military branches of the United States and Russia also only recruit personnel from their own countries. No matter how impressive the performance of others is, these teams will disdain them.
However, those teams that also made it into the top 400, those hodgepodge teams that evolved from sports clubs, were completely unpretentious when it came to recruiting members. As long as they were anyone, they would accept them all.
After traditional sports became less popular under the impact of simulator games all over the world, these sports clubs that originally operated various major leagues and ball games began to transform immediately.
In addition to gradually dismissing their expensive star players.
Some stars and players with good looks and strong appeal have also been transformed by the club into celebrity spokespersons and organizers of their fans.
Then in this simulator competition.
Relying on their original fan base inherited from traditional sports, these clubs have organized strong fan clubs and loose competition organizations around the world.
So when the competition entered its second week, these original fan organizations suddenly appeared in more than ten locations around the world, and the number of participants in the simulator competition reached hundreds of thousands or even millions.
Although the internal members are mixed.
When fighting breaks out, there is no command except for the commander-in-chief and a few dispatchers who can roughly determine a direction, or a predetermined target.
However, thanks to their overwhelming number of members and the constant influx of new members from TVs and bars around the world, these fan groups disguised as clubs have all made it into the top 400.
Different from those military-style contestants who are well-organized and have clear rules.
These are basically teams that have evolved from the original fan organizations, as well as various fan circles and rice circles. Seriously speaking, they are the ultimate hodgepodge that concentrates all the chaos of human beings, as well as various free wills and confusing behaviors.
But for experimental purposes of the government and sociologists.
No matter how poor the quality of these people is.
They also have equal qualifications in this competition.
……
……
When all teams are integrating.
Anna and her friend Maimai came to a newly built base located in the Russian Lunar Shipyard.
Besides the female professor, the only person traveling with them was Graf, who didn't have much to do anymore.
This base was a key project of Anna when she was in charge of Russia's Ministry of Science and coordinated industrial production. The entire shipyard used her artificial intelligence core and the most advanced automatic production line in human history.
Unlike those larger main shipyards.
This state-of-the-art shipbuilding base has a unique shipbuilding dock that is only 100 meters in size.
Chapter 427: 100-meter drone bombards the mothership's shipyard
Although efforts have been made to move further and further on the road of mass production and standardization, humans are still unable to produce main battleships with a length of more than 2000 meters on the slipway like they produced cars decades ago.
In other large shipyards in Jupiter orbit and on the moon, the production of each 2000-meter-long space battleship still requires the cooperation of thousands of engineers and workers in the dock.
The engineers and skilled workers in the space shipyard are not common talents even in this world, so humans have been lacking in production capacity for main battleships above the 2000-meter level until now.
Except for the 4000-meter-class ultimate flagship that Anna uses for herself.
The Russians currently have only 24 large docks operating simultaneously in the solar system.
Although Anna's plan called for humanity to have over 100 warships under construction simultaneously on the docks in the solar system, some docks in Jupiter's orbit and on the moon were still unfinished, and the training of shipbuilding engineers and skilled workers for those docks that were completed was still ongoing...
Therefore, before the war with the Zerg begins, this part of production cannot be relied upon.
Moreover, Russia now builds one such 2000-meter-class main battleship.
They also all take nearly a year to complete.
Although the United States and the international fleet have more engineers and experienced workers than Russia, neither side has accepted Anna's industrial upgrades and technological innovations.
With their original production capacity, not only is their efficiency less than half of Russia's current level, but each of the two parties now takes more than twice as long to produce a 2000-meter-class battleship that Anna outsourced.
After these warships of the US and international fleets are produced, Russia will have to spend at least two weeks to install various confidential equipment and internal space expansion components in the cabins.
So half a year later, if Anna expects these 2000-meter-class main battleships to fight the bugs, it will basically be impossible.
Because of human's current production capacity.
By then, the human expeditionary force will only have 48 2000-meter-class warships.
And within the estimated battlefields of over 100 planets, there were tens of thousands of Zerg motherships over 1000 meters in size that had been detected so far, plus the densely packed Zerg fighter planes...
If just a few human warships rushed in, they would be killed.
Therefore, below the ultimate flagship and the 2000-meter-class main battleship, Anna needs a small battleship that is easy to mass-produce, can be produced quickly, has large quantities, and can also have firepower that exceeds that of the Zerg mothership.
Then two months later the construction of the 2000-meter-class battleship began.
Anna led thousands of people from the Ministry of Science and the Ministry of Industry to complete the production line design of the latest 100-meter-class small unmanned aerial vehicle artillery destroyer.
This 100-meter-class small warship is similar to the production model of the Liberty and Victory ships during World War II.
The radius of the cross section is only about 5 meters.
All the components of the battleship were divided into thousands of modules of varying sizes, all of which were outsourced to tens of thousands of factories on Earth for production.
All components and modules can be transported and coordinated through the space gate network throughout the solar system.
The slipway on the moon is only responsible for final assembly and testing.
In fact, in the past year or so, Anna's team of scientists and the Russian Ministry of Industry have been coordinating and upgrading the production lines of all factories related to this type of 100-meter-class battleships within their own country and in all member countries of the Warsaw Pact.
It is even to speed up the transportation of components and various modules of these 100-meter-class warships.
Russia has also built a dedicated transportation network for these factories using space gates, from mineral mining to finished product transportation.
Now Anna brings Maimai and Graf to the shipyard on the moon.
In fact, it is because all the coordination and upgrades of the tens of thousands of factories on Earth have been completed, and various components and modules have been piled up into mountains in the lunar base.
And when everything is ready, only the east wind is missing.
Now let’s take a look at humanity’s current maximum production capacity of 100-meter-class battleships, and what their war potential will be if they launch a reckless attack.
Final assembly had not yet begun.
In fact, the Russian Supreme Committee wants to test what the maximum construction speed can be when humans face the Zerg after all modules and components are available.
This 100-meter-class shipbuilding base on the moon is now covered with anti-gravity tracks.
The assembly of the entire 100-meter-class battleship is also broken down into thousands of large and small steps.
Unmanned transport aircraft filled the sky.
Various conveyor belts and huge industrial robots are also erected on both sides of the 100-meter-long docks.
On top of the 250 docks throughout the lunar base.
