One kilometer away from the army marching through the Dark Forest, Fang Zhen was operating a drone controller.
His ace in the hole was a DJI Agras T30 agricultural drone.
Fang Zhen had an eager new salesman from his company buy the drone for him on short notice.
As far as Fang Zhen's combat philosophy was concerned, the farther from the enemy, the safer he was.
A knife was inferior to a long spear, a long spear was inferior to a Molotov cocktail, and a Molotov cocktail was inferior to a compound bow or crossbow.
But a compound crossbow's maximum range was less than two hundred meters, while the drone controller in his hands could stream night-vision video from a maximum operating distance of 4.3 miles—a full seven kilometers.
How could a compound crossbow's maximum attack range possibly compare to something beyond visual range?
Moreover, Fang Zhen had rigged the drone with a few nasty surprises of its own.
