After resting for about ten minutes, all the officers and soldiers at the outpost who were guarding and monitoring them on the mountain pass got up. The captain hurriedly walked down with several officers and soldiers.
Then he came to Geng Lei, saluted Geng Lei and the others, and then said: "Comrade captain, welcome home. It's your duty, please forgive me."
No, you are fulfilling your duties. With the cutest people like you guarding the border, the organization and the people can rest assured. Captain Geng Lei returned a military salute, then shook hands and said: "Viper Combat Team Geng Lei."
Zhang Changgong of the **th Regiment in the theater, XX Mountain Post. After the introduction of the two sides, the captain couldn't help but take a close look at the mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor worn by the team members, and then said to Geng Lei: "Geng Lei
Captain, you should go to our outpost to repair it first, the helicopter to pick you up is on the way."
This... Geng Lei was a little hesitant when he heard this. After all, what they wanted most now was to rush back to the station and not cause any trouble. Moreover, if their group went there, they would also bring trouble to the outpost and Captain Zhang and his friends.
Zhang Changgong saw this and said with a smile: "It's not far, it's over there. Now that we've met him, I have to go there and have a drink."
Well, I’ll cause you trouble. Geng Lei nodded and responded.
You are talking about trouble, they are all comrades, no need to be polite. With that, Zhang Changgong greeted everyone and started to march towards the outpost.
As Zhang Changgong said, the outpost is not far from here. At the beginning of the bend of the stream, the terrain here is relatively open, and the entire valley is guarded. The location is very important.
By guarding this place, we can block everyone coming from the outside. No wonder they were discovered as soon as they entered.
Of course, this is because Geng Lei and others did not hide their whereabouts. If they were willing to hide their whereabouts, Zhang Changgong and others would not be able to discover them.
The location of the post is not large and is divided into two parts. The post barracks is located at the bend of the river. This is a building similar to a courtyard. In the middle is a large yard with a basketball court inside. The row of houses in the front is a garage.
Military off-road vehicles and wheeled infantry fighting vehicles are parked inside. The houses on both sides are barracks, which are where officers and soldiers rest. The house on the front is where the activity room, honor room, restaurant, etc. are located.
The other part is a three-story sentry tower located on the hillside, a bit like an airport tower. The top floor is covered with large glass, so you can see the entire mountain pass clearly.
There is a radar antenna above the sentry tower, as well as optical sight detection equipment. Considering that the other party relied on these equipment, they were discovered.
The sentry tower and the barracks are connected by a step ladder of more than 100 meters. This stone ladder was all built bit by bit by the officers and soldiers of the sentry post.
It is said that when the outpost was first established, there was no road access here, only a trail opened by soldiers to enter and exit. It was very inconvenient to supply living materials. For half of the year, it was in a state of ice peaks and isolated from the outside world.
At that time, the officers and soldiers only had a few tents and nothing else. Later, with the continuous efforts of the officers and soldiers, they were built bit by bit.
Because it was not open to traffic, construction materials such as cement and steel bars could not be transported, so the soldiers could only carry in little by little. Then after generations of officers and soldiers continued to expand, it gradually formed a scale.
With the development of our country, the conditions are getting better and better. Coupled with the needs of the situation, the superiors finally made up their mind to open the road from here to the outside world, so that military vehicles can come in directly, and the living conditions are getting better and better.
Later, superiors allocated funds to build this modern outpost based on the original camp.
Listening to the introduction by Zhang Changgong and others, Geng Lei and the others gained a better understanding of the outpost and the difficulties of the defending officers and soldiers.
This also made them respect the officers and soldiers at the outpost even more. Compared with this group of people, the hardship they endured was nothing.
It is precisely because of the silent dedication of countless defensive officers and soldiers like this group of people that thousands of homes can be lit up and the years are quiet. I pay tribute to them!
Compared with Geng Lei and the others' admiration for Zhang Changgong and the others, Zhang Changgong and the others became curious about Geng Lei and the others. In particular, the set of mechanical exoskeleton-assisted protective armor worn by Geng Lei and the others became the focus of attention of the officers and soldiers.
To the officers and soldiers, this was simply too science fiction, like something out of a science fiction movie or TV show. They never thought that one day they would see the real Iron Man.
A soldier looked at Geng Lei and the others halfway, and then couldn't help but ask: "Is this Iron Man's Mark suit? Have we already developed it to equip the troops?"
Hearing this soldier's question, the other soldiers couldn't help but pricked up their ears. In fact, they had wanted to ask this question for a long time, but they had held back and now someone finally spoke.
Facing the curious gazes of the soldiers, Vulture smiled and shook his head and said: "This is not Lao Mi's Iron Man suit, but our self-developed mechanical exoskeleton armor. We are the only ones in the world who own it.
oh."
After Vulture finished speaking, the soldiers couldn't help but get excited. This is a mechanical exoskeleton armor independently developed by our country. No wonder they haven't seen it before.
Captain Geng, how many troops are equipped with this mechanical exoskeleton armor? Zhang Changgong asked after hearing this.
Geng Lei smiled and shook his head: "Not too many. There are many types of exoskeleton equipment. The one we have is the more advanced one. Currently, it is only used by a small number of special operations troops.
There is no large-scale installation.”
Oh, that's right. Zhang Changgong responded, but his tone was obviously a bit lonely. If this is the case, then it is basically impossible for border troops like them to do so.
Geng Lei was obviously aware of this, and then comforted him: "The exoskeleton armor we have is a special operations exoskeleton, and there are also exoskeleton armors specially used for ordinary infantry. Maybe there will be exoskeletons specially used in border areas in the future."
What about skeletal armor?
Different mechanical exoskeleton armors have different performance, different application objects, and different focuses. The mechanical exoskeleton assistance armor like ours focuses on mobility and protective performance.
The exoskeleton equipment equipped with you in the future may focus more on the adaptability to plateau and cold areas, allowing you to be more adaptable to fighting in this harsh environment.
For example, having a stronger assist system can allow you to walk on flat ground in complex plateau terrain areas. Another example is that the entire armor has a pressurization system inside, which can prevent you from altitude sickness. Another example is having a gas supply system and an oxygen supply system.
It can ensure your long-term exercise in plateau areas, etc."
