Chapter 1383: Chapter 1388: Once Again

"The strength of Cerberus and Butter Knife is essentially a reflection of the powerful national strength of the United States, built on the strong foundation of American technology. Their vehicles, the weapons they use, and various high-tech auxiliary equipment give them a significant advantage."

Pavlovich has faced off against Butter Knife, making him the most suitable person to evaluate and analyze Cerberus.

"What does Cerberus handle? They are responsible for determining whether a new type of equipment is valuable and worth deploying and promoting. This is a research unit, but a large part of this unit’s combat capability is built on equipment. In other words, without the support of the American system, their combat effectiveness would significantly decline."

"Flying thousands of kilometers for a long-range assault, parachuting directly onto the enemy upon arrival, quickly and accurately judging the situation, and launching a fast and deadly attack on the enemy — this is the value of a unit like Cerberus. Of course, this is just a simple example."

"From the equipment we have seized, it is evident that the equipment of Butter Knife and Cerberus doesn’t surpass this era but definitely leads it. However, Cerberus is a research-oriented unit, but without the system’s support and its research role, how strong is this unit’s combat power?"

What Pavlovich is saying is a fact, and it’s something everyone wants to know: does Cerberus still have value after losing the system’s support?

As things stand, Cerberus is valuable, even without the bonuses of high-tech equipment; it still remains valuable.

"The individuals in Cerberus have reached the limits of human ability. The equipment we used in the exercise limited their potential. If they had used their familiar weapons and equipment, their combat effectiveness could have been stronger than what was displayed tonight."

Pavlovich said a lot, and Yang Yi nodded and said, "So, it’s worth pulling over Cerberus’s people?"

"Yes, absolutely worth it."

While Yang Yi and Pavlovich were evaluating Cerberus’s performance, Lieutenant Colonel Karl Stemonsen was also summarizing his own performance.

"We lost our familiar equipment. The equipment we used couldn’t let us fight in familiar ways. But!"

Karl Stemonsen looked at his remaining three subordinates and said solemnly, "Gentlemen, we can’t conceal our infrared signals, we can’t spot the enemy before they see us, we can’t use sound waves to locate the enemy, we’ve lost many simple and efficient tools, but does losing these mean we can’t fight?"

"The Red Team has always been responsible for researching special operations models of the entire Navy. We are the testers for any new equipment, determining suitable tactics based on the characteristics of new equipment, but losing these, does it mean we can’t fight?"

"We are users of high-tech equipment, but we are not slaves to those high-tech equipment. Without the complex, expensive, and novel tools, we will still fight. Why do we need to experiment to determine if new equipment is valuable? Because we’ve fought too many battles, we’re familiar with every environment and every battlefield, we understand every type of combat, which is why we are the experimenters!"

Indeed, Cerberus is a special forces unit of the United States Navy, the elite among the elite. But Cerberus is not pampered like a treasure — if Cerberus only stayed in their base quietly researching so-called new tactics and strategies, wouldn’t that be building castles in the air?

So, Cerberus not only lacks practical experience but on the contrary, Cerberus is the most battle-hardened unit in the world.

As long as the United States initiates or participates in a war, and as long as the Navy is involved, Cerberus is bound to be there, from the jungles of South America to the deserts of the Middle East, Cerberus has never missed a single battle.

An hour is used for preparation, and this time can also be used to summarize the recent failure.

Pavlovich glanced at his watch and said in a low voice, "Time’s up."

Karl Stemonsen took a deep breath and said, "It’s almost time. What I want to say lastly is, gentlemen, we don’t need to fight for any reason. Now we are fighting for our dignity, for the dignity of being the best soldiers on this planet! Let’s fight in the simplest, most pure way!"

Abandoning all embellishments, Karl decided to face the challenge in the simplest way.

The four members of Cerberus formed a standard four-person assault formation and then launched an attack on the gate.

No tricks, just the simplest, most basic frontal assault. Armed with the most advanced military technology, Cerberus hadn’t launched this kind of attack in a long time.

Breach the door, assault in.

All are special forces, all are the strongest, but where’s the difference?

Other than training, it’s training — the intensity reaches the limits of human capability. This is the training model of many special forces, and Cerberus is the same. The people of Cerberus are only human. Why are they dare to call themselves the strongest?

Many reasons, besides the advantage of weapons and high-tech equipment, Cerberus Red Team’s advantage lies in their more extensive experience, more rigorous training, and the fact that their members are the best of the best.

But no matter where you go, two ace teams always have to compete against each other.

Since the equipment is the same, it’s a matter of basic skills now — whose reaction is quicker, even by a hair’s breadth, whose movement is more rapid, even if just slightly faster than the enemy, and who makes fewer mistakes. Real combat is just about such things when it comes down to it.

Karl Stemonsen was the third one to be eliminated, starting with a frontal assault through the gate and ending with everyone being eliminated — the four members of Cerberus lasted only 2.7 seconds.

But Cerberus killed five people.

Four for five.

The largest hall in the building was once again silent.

The people of Cerberus emitted yellow smoke, while the people of Black Devil emitted red smoke.

Both sides were watching each other, yet no one spoke.

Karl killed an opponent, but he was also killed at the moment of shooting. For a decapitation operation, it was a complete failure.

Both sides were genuinely surprised by each other’s strength, but was anyone convinced? No, everyone believed they had not exerted their true capabilities.

Finally, after staring at each other for at least two minutes, Karl Stemonsen tentatively asked, "Again?"

"Okay, again!"

A unanimous decision was quickly reached, and this time, both sides did not stipulate any preparation time. From now on, they would abandon all pre-set conditions, which means they would treat this exercise as a real battle.
