Chapter 746: The Battle Once Upon a Time
The surrounding images began to retreat rapidly, and the battles that had taken place were re-displayed in front of Qin Yi in the form of replay.
One by one, the dead soldiers came back to life, the overwhelming swarm dispersed like a low tide, and everything returned to its original state.
Qin Yi took a deep breath, and these images strengthened the memory in his mind, making him more clearly realize that some seemingly correct decisions made under the premise that "all soldiers are rational people" may actually be completely wrong.
After getting ready, Qin Yi lightly tapped the screen of the console, and the troops on standby moved again.
This time, Qin Yi's attention was more focused, and he didn't dare to let go of any detail.
Qin Yi recalled the consequences of a decision he had made before, while looking at the analysis data provided by AEEAIS.
With the help of AEEIS, the state of each unit and even each soldier is quantified into a fluctuating data.
For example, different soldiers will have different morale, tension, fear and other data at the beginning of the battle, and the rate of change of these values will also be different during the battle.
The stats of all the soldiers in a unit are combined, and after complex calculations, the current state of the unit can be revealed.
Sometimes it's morale high, sometimes it's demoralizing, sometimes it's a complete breakdown. Once it completely collapsed, Qin Yi had almost no choice but to give this force an order to retreat, because other orders, whether it was attacking or holding the position, might not work.
In the process of commanding the battle, AEEIS would also remind Qin Yi to make some key decisions from time to time.
For example, if there is a battle going on in multiple areas at the same time, and a team discovers a certain zerg nest at this time, AEEIS will directly prompt Qin Yi after judging the importance of this event, and let Qin Yi give priority to command this event.
When a squad calls for reinforcements or supplies, Qin Yi also has many options. You can send troops for reinforcements, you can keep silent about reinforcements and ask the team to hold their ground, you can lie that reinforcements are being made, you can tell them the truth, and so on.
Behind each option, there will be information labeled by AEEIS to help Qin Yi judge the possible consequences of making this decision.
For example, a squad whose morale is on the verge of collapse will briefly increase morale if it gets the message that "reinforcements are on the way"; If you know that there will be no more reinforcements, morale may collapse instantly, and there is a very small chance of launching a suicide attack to wipe out more Zerg.
The consequences of each choice can be seen, and some possibilities are extremely low and Qin Yi is impossible to try.
If the truth is told and there is a more than 90% chance of demoralization, and less than 10% of the probability of motivating a soldier in a desperate situation, then it would be very foolish to bet on the probability of less than 10%.
In this battle, Qin Yi did not command according to the probabilities given by AEEIS, and even sometimes he deliberately rejected these data in his heart.
Because many times he chooses according to the data, he has to make some decisions that go against his will, for example, he wants to give up and sacrifice a certain team, in order to keep them on the ground, but he can only tell them that reinforcements are about to arrive.
Qin Yi instinctively resisted this kind of behavior, so in some situations that had little impact on the battle situation, he would still insist on choosing to tell the truth.
But it is undeniable that in the course of the battle, Qin Yi also began to rely more and more on the data provided by AEEAIS.
Because this data is really useful.
Qin Yi gradually discovered that in such chaotic battlefield conditions, the command method originally used for "rational people" basically did not work, but strictly followed the data analysis provided by AEEIS to command, and finally obtained a result that was most acceptable from the overall point of view.
On some less important decisions, Qin Yi began to pay more and more attention to data and AEEIS's opinions.
Because compared to the key battlefields, the actions of these marginal battlefields and small groups of troops will not affect the overall situation, and Qin Yi does not expect them to have an extremely small probability of "exploding", he just hopes that they will not collapse too quickly and can play a relatively acceptable result.
This time, Qin Yi successfully won the battle.
After a quick review of the entire battle, Qin Yi quickly put himself into the command of the next battle, because he was very short of time and did not have much time to think about these difficult questions.
Qin Yi is becoming more and more adept at commanding according to AEEIS data and "global thinking", and his results are steadily improving.
From the rout of the troops at the beginning, to the fact that he can now work hard to control the battle damage within a certain range and win the battle, Qin Yi's progress is very obvious.
With each victory, looking at the cheering pictures of the soldiers, and watching the casualty figures reported by AEEIS getting lower and lower, Qin Yi became more and more numb in his emotions while being relieved.
He felt as if he had gradually become an emotionless command machine, on the verge of completely ignoring the feelings of individual soldiers, coldly and precisely making choices that would be most beneficial to the overall battle.
……
Another battle.
Qin Yi still did the same as usual, quickly browsing the battlefield information and formulating a combat strategy.
However, when he swept the name of a squad that was on standby, he was momentarily stunned.
AS-371-45 squad.
Qin Yi zoomed in the camera and swept over the number and name of each soldier.
He saw the names of Xu Kaile, Meng Yu, Zhao Yongxiu, and Wu Shaojun, as well as himself, Qin Yi, the captain of the AS-371-45 team.
There were so many units in this battlefield, each with its own number and name, but Qin Yi had never paid attention to these.
Because he really can't pay attention, he can't put himself in the shoes of a soldier to think about the problem.
This is a large-scale battle, and there are a lot of decisions waiting for Qin Yi to make every minute, and paying attention to one soldier is irresponsible to all the other soldiers.
However, when he saw his team, Qin Yi couldn't help but be a little moved.
The memories that had gradually become blurred during training became clear again, and Qin Yi's gaze swept over every familiar team member, what they were doing now was exactly the same as in their memories.
AEEIS didn't explain much, but Qin Yi knew very well that this should be a video record of the battle at that time. Now, the battle has been restored to the beginning, only this time he is no longer the leader of the AS-271-45 team, but the commander of the battlefield.
Qin Yi's gaze once again swept over the data of every soldier in the AS-371-45 squad, as well as the comprehensive data of the entire squad.
Morale, Tension, Fear......
Every piece of data is clearly displayed.
The stats of these players vary.
Meng Yu, who was short in stature and taciturn, had the lowest level of nervousness and fear, which was in line with Qin Yi's judgment;
Zhao Yongxiu seems to be careless, has a good face, and receives the most care in the team, but his fear value is not very high;
On the contrary, Xu Kaile, who seems optimistic and positive and often encourages other team members, has the highest level of tension in the team.
Qin Yi just thought about it briefly and quickly determined the reason for this: Xu Kaile is a delicate person, and he actually bears more mental pressure than others, and his optimism and positivity are just an appearance.
Qin Yi looked at himself again, and he found that his numerical value was not as perfect as he imagined.
Although his morale, fear value, nervousness and other data are the best in the entire team, he is still far from a real "rational person", and even in the entire fleet, he is not the best data.
According to AEEIS's judgment, he would also be broken and desperate, not a ruthless war machine.
Personally, Qin Yi thinks that the AS-371-45 squad is unique from the bottom of his heart, but from the data, it is just an ordinary squad.
Compared to other squads, this squad is nothing special.
As for why the team was able to complete the task of finding the Zerg Empress's nest in the end......
Originally, Qin Yi thought that it was because of the sacrifice of other team members, because of his own persistence, and because of the luck of escaping death countless times.
But now Qin Yi suddenly felt that maybe these reasons were valid, but none of them were valid.
From the commander's point of view, there is a different view of this matter.
In fact, the Combined Fleet sent so many squads, each of which had similar combat capabilities to the AS-371-45, and some of them were even more combat-capable.
Judging by the results, as long as the command strategy is right, one or two of these squads will always come to the Zerg Empress's lair, if not AS-371-45 squads, then other squads.
For Captain Qin Yi, such a result was won by the sacrifice and bloody struggle of all members of the AS-371-45 team; For Commander Qin Yi, such a result was the result of accurate calculations.
Of course, there is a possibility that the calculations will be wrong, and the strategy will fail, but it is clear that this war will not turn out much differently even without the AS-371-45 squad.
Qin Yi no longer paid attention to his team, but re-pulled his vision back to the overall situation.
The overwhelming sea of insects is already brewing, like a surging black tide, and like a dark cloud that is being swept by a strong wind, and every second is very precious now.
Qin Yi didn't speak, skillfully operated the console, and began to command the battle.
Under Qin Yi's control, one army after another met the insect swarm, and countless soldiers were swallowed by the sea of insects, and the dense fire suppression blew out one deep pit after another and one ravine after another on the surface of the planet.
Qin Yi calmly made decisions again and again, after the sacrifice of a formation, there was immediately a reserve formation to make up for it, and the human army and the Zerg began to stalemate on the grand battlefield, repeatedly fighting for some strategic places.
AS-371-45, like the rest of the elite squads, was sent on a mission to search for the Zerg Empress's nest, and one elite team after another was accidentally exposed, and the Ansebo signal disappeared into the hive forever, but there were also teams that continued to penetrate deeper into the hive.
