Chapter 650 The correct usage of step-by-step speech
"By the way, didn't you say you had something to ask me for inquiries? Tell me! If you can help you and reveal it, I will try my best to help you answer."
Lin Mo heard this and said, "Director Wei, this is the case. We encountered a headache. That is, when we act, communication was extremely poor, which greatly affected our actions.
Currently, there are two ways to communicate when doing things. One is to communicate by manpower and the other is to communicate by telephone, but they all have various limitations and shortcomings.
There are two types of human communication: one is to communicate according to people, and the other is to communicate with agreed whistles and gestures.
The former consumes too much manpower and has a certain lag. It may not be able to be transmitted in place when tracking and monitoring mobile targets. Moreover, there are too many people to communicate frequently, which only increases the risk of exposure.
The latter type has limited information that can be communicated and has a certain distance limit, which also increases the risk of exposure.
As for telephone communication, when monitoring fixed targets, you can pull a dedicated line for contact, but it also increases the risk of exposure, and it is not used when monitoring mobile and non-fixed targets. At this time, most of them use existing telephone communications in public or store installations. One is cumbersome, and the other is that there are not necessarily ready-made telephones available in many cases.
Based on these problems encountered during the operation, I envisioned a portable mobile short-range communication tool. I remembered that Director Wei, you designed a micro domestic radio station, so I wanted to learn from it and discuss the feasibility with you."
"Wait for a moment..." Wei Daming spoke, thought for a while, and asked, "You should still want to entrust us to research, develop and manufacture for you, right? You should not tell me this matter alone, but will be handled by your superiors, and then go through formal procedures to negotiate."
Lin Mo heard this and hurriedly said, "Director Wei, I know these procedural matters, but I personally have limited knowledge and technology in radio. I don't know if this idea is feasible, so I want to ask you for information in private, come up with a feasible plan and reach an agreement, and then go through the program officially. This will avoid going directly to the program. If you communicate and understand less, some misunderstandings may arise, or some words are inconvenient to say publicly, which will cause miscarriage and affect everyone's relationship."
Wei Daming thought about it, nodded slightly, barely agreeing with Lin Mo's statement, and said, "Then talk about your specific idea of this...portable...short-range communication tool! I'll see if it's feasible first."
Lin Mo nodded and said, "What I imagine is a piece of half a cigarette size, weighing less than one kilogram, and can communicate step-by-step around one kilometer..."
"Wait..." Before Lin Mo finished speaking, Wei Daming raised his hand and interrupted, frowned and said, "It seems that you said it was not bad just now. You really need to communicate in advance, otherwise I will really reject your thoughts directly."
Hearing this, you were confused for a moment, not sure where the problem was, why did Wei Daming reject it directly?
Seeing Lin Mo's face was puzzled, Wei Daming reminded: "When using step-by-step communication, are you still going to use dialect to communicate?"
After hearing this, Lin Mo finally understood that the ideas he had come up with before have now become an obstacle?
Lin Mo was a little unwilling to give up and asked, "Director Wei, this is also used to use dialect as a means of confidentiality, so there is no need to cover it so tightly, right? How many dialects are there in China? There are countless numbers, right? There are not enough dialects, and there are ethnic minorities, so they can also use their language as a means of confidentiality!"
"This matter is not calculated like this. It cannot be equated with the number of dialects and languages. It cannot be known in advance by the enemy."
Lin Mo was a little confused when he heard this. Seeing Lin Mo like this, Wei Daming also knew where the other party was confused. To be honest, he had only noticed some things recently.
After thinking a little, Wei Daming said: "I will introduce you to some basic situation! Thanks to the seized codebook and various support, the telecommunications room has made some progress and results in the recent deciphering work.
But this is not the most important thing. The most important thing is that I discovered a problem, that is, the current encoding method is not as confidential as I imagined.
Can you understand this? Although we are deciphering only the Japanese historical telegrams, and the password has been deprecated, our conditions are not good either. At least the personnel, experience, equipment, etc. are not as good as those of the Japanese. Give us some time. I guess it is highly likely that the Japanese will decipher some of the current communications, but it is just a matter of how many things are.
I am not saying this, but feeling deeply worried, because I am very clear that Japan's deciphering ability is above us, the encoding ability is above us, and the confidentiality required for deciphering telegrams, codebooks, etc. is above me. We can decipher their communications, but it doesn't make sense that ours cannot be deciphered by them.
When you come in, I was thinking about this issue. Our confidential communications are likely to be a sieve for the Japanese. It is estimated that only our intelligence department uses independent passwords to communicate with one-on-one, but I guess the complete set of secret codes used by the military, diplomacy, and even the intelligence departments are very problematic.
Because judging from the current situation, the Japanese have been infiltration of us seriously. The things required for deciphering such as codebooks, clerks and telecommunications are definitely not as difficult as us. These complete sets are widely used and have high frequency of use. In this case, it is not difficult for us to decipher ourselves, let alone Japan, which has stronger deciphering capabilities.
Now you can understand why you are not allowed to communicate in dialect? Because this is another method of confidentiality, and it is a method that is likely to change the status quo, so you cannot easily let your opponents notice it in advance."
"Director Wei, do you have to hang yourself on a tree and place all your hopes on it? If you can't encode it, then enhance it. If you leak it, then strengthen your own confidentiality, counter-espionage, and speed up the frequency of codebook updates, etc. There are many ways to increase confidentiality!"
This chapter is not over, please click on the next page to continue reading! Lin Mo is still unwilling to accept it, and he always feels something is wrong, but he can't think of it for a while. But he remembers that Walking Telephone Communication played a big role in World War II and promoted this communication method to the grassroots level, but the telecommunications room seemed not aware of this point, and Lin Mo felt that this path was probably going wrong.
"Oh..." Wei Daming sighed helplessly. He felt that Lin Mo still didn't understand what he meant, so he patiently explained again.
"The methods you mentioned can indeed enhance confidentiality in communications, but this is not the key. The key is that the confidentiality methods currently used are poor in their own confidentiality.
Take us as an example. Being able to decipher communications with far less confidentiality than our own under the condition that deciphering means is far inferior to that of our opponents, means that this confidentiality is poor. The methods you mentioned are just sewing and patching them on this basis, and cannot solve the problems they have.
The Japanese people's current confidentiality methods are something we can only compare to, and they can be deciphered by us who have much weaker deciphering ability. With our current confidentiality ability, it is estimated that some experts who know how to understand the knowledge of the Red Party can decipher it. Even if our confidentiality methods catch up with Japan, it will not be able to stop Japan, which is still above us. It is extremely difficult to catch up with Japan's confidentiality ability."
This time, Lin Mo understood and thought clearly what was wrong with him. He also realized a problem. The two of them argued, but their relationship was not at the same point, and there was clearly a difference in information. Lin Mo did not notice the point that Wei Daming was concerned about, and Wei Daming was not sure what Lin Mo was worried about!
"Director Wei, I understand now. What you want to express is that the confidential communication methods currently used have problems. In some cases, if they are used frequently, they are easily deciphered, right?"
"Huh..." Wei Daming breathed a long sigh and said with a smile: "I finally made it clear to you, it's really useless to explain..."
Lin Mo also smiled and then said seriously: "But Director Wei, communication in dialect cannot solve the problem? For the translator, it seems that the beeping sounds of dialect and code should be no different. Dialect can only be considered an alternative password.
If you figure out the content of the secret telegram sent by a dialect, and don’t care about the dialect or not, and just treat the dialect as a set of secret telegram codes, then there should be no essential difference between deciphering it and deciphering the secret telegram codes?
After all, dialect is also a Chinese language, but the speech is different, but the expression is the same thing. It can be regarded as different ticking sounds of secret codes.
The language of ethnic minorities is not good, or in any language, they are essentially different. They represent the same meaning, and the difference is only the different forms of expression on the surface. As long as the language is not language, they can still be used as a set of secret codes to decipher it."
This is what Lin Mo felt wrong before. Of course, this does not mean that using other languages as a means of confidential communication is not possible. After all, there is a precedent for the successful Navajo password of World War II in the United States.
But the US military can play around with it, which does not mean that the government can do it. After all, the government's confidentiality is here. The Japanese have a high chance of obtaining roughly or even the original content of the telegram. They can be as clear as Lin Mo said, just like what Lin Mo said, "do not care about what language is not spoken, and just treat it as a set of passwords to decipher it."
"I really didn't expect this..." Wei Daming frowned deeply and said, "It seems that what you said should not be hanged on a tree. Confidentiality work must be carried out side by side, and hope cannot be placed on one thing.
However, it can still be used as a means of confidential communication. Although its problems are not essentially different from the secret code, it is a new form of passwords, and it is still a use of ready-made things. It can reduce the personal habits, preferences, rules, etc. in manual code compilation, and the security of deciphering will be much higher than that of code compilation."
"Director Wei, I still stick to my ideas, use step-by-step language as a means of communication, and use dialect as an encryption means of communication..."
"You..." Before Lin Mo could finish speaking, Wei Daming wanted to get angry, and Lin Mo hurriedly explained.
"Director Wei, I found that we still haven't communicated clearly. The starting point of our two people on this issue is not the same. You just explained to me that your starting point is the confidentiality of communication. Are you willing to listen to my starting point on this issue?"
"Okay, then tell me..." Seeing Lin Mo's calm look, he probably had something in his stomach. Wei Daming was also interested and wanted to hear what kind of flowers he could say.
Seeing this, Lin Mo did not hide it and said, "Director Wei, I want to use dialect to communicate. The reason is not confidentiality, or confidentiality is just a secondary reason, and step-by-side is the main reason.
Because there is a huge advantage in step-by-step communication that cannot be compared with code communication, that is, the requirements for users are extremely low. I believe Director Wei knows more clearly than me.
At present, our army's radio stations are generally only distributed to the division and brigade level. If you want to continue to be distributed, you face two main problems: one is the radio equipment and the other is the radio operator.
Radio equipment can be solved with money to a certain extent, but it is difficult for qualified radio operators to be trained, because every time a radio station is distributed to a first-level troops, the radio operators required must be several times that of the higher-level troops.
At present, the organization of domestic troops is relatively chaotic. Let’s assume that there are three regiments under a division and brigade. It is simply estimated that the radio operators assigned to the regiment level must be three times the radio operators used by the division and brigade.
This does not include other regiment-level or important direct troops under the Master Brigade. The number of traffic personnel required to be more busy after the division and brigade is assigned to the lower level, as well as traffic personnel who may reduce personnel due to sacrifice and injuries, if the traffic personnel are assigned to the battalion level, this problem will be even more serious. After all, the lower the level, the more you need to face the battlefield, and the danger will increase rapidly.
But walkie-talk equipment is different. Just pull a soldier and train for a few days. You can easily operate the walkie-talk equipment and communicate with the microphone. Even if you add the maintenance of the equipment, you will become a qualified walkie-talk in three or two months after training. Without the obstacles of the trainees, if you are really willing to spend money, walkie-talk can even be promoted to a level one.
Director Wei, you are engaged in communications and should be very clear about how good it is to promote wireless communication to the group camp or even level one. Promote walk-talk communication. Walk-talk communication uses dialect as a means of confidentiality. I personally think this is the correct application of this confidentiality method.
There are many types of dialects in China, and they can communicate in one military or even in the division and brigade. I even feel that this method is more confidential than applying dialects to confidential communications.
After all, the communications within the first level of the division brigade are not very confidential, and the opponents do not specifically draw precious deciphering power to decipher like deciphering passwords. Even if people are really drawn to decipher, there are as many sets of passwords as there are in the same position as the deciphering brigade. It is a big project to decipher. We can change a group of new walkers in a while, or even just walkers between different troops to switch, which can cause great trouble to the opponent and ensure communication security as much as possible.
