Warlords: I just made a little fortune, but I didn’t build a country.

As time went by, it was August in a blink of an eye. The global war entered its climax. Hundreds of countries were involved, and various advanced weapons and equipment began to emerge at this time.

At this time, the Qin Empire was also developing steadily because of the injection of 555 billion yuan in funds. Qin Lin also made a rough allocation of these funds, of which 35 billion yuan was used to develop and launch military satellites, develop supercomputers, etc.

Another 20 billion has been allocated for the development of various types of missiles and their large-scale mass production, such as cruise missiles, air-to-air, and air-to-ground missiles, and the mass production of these missiles is being accelerated.

Of the remaining 500 billion resources, 150 billion will be used to build five major naval fleets. These five major naval fleets include missile destroyers, integrated large aircraft carriers, etc., to create five advanced main fleets for the Qin Empire. In this way, the maritime security issues of the Qin Empire will be resolved.

Another thing is to invest 50 billion yuan in scientific research and development, such as the development of global ghost bombs. Because the power of ghost bombs is already known to countries around the world, although their use is now banned, I believe that more countries will invest in the development of these ghost bombs, because mastering these ghost bombs will give them a certain voice in the international community. After all, its power is there.

However, Qin Lin has great confidence in this. If countries around the world want to develop these specific ghost bullets, it will take at least 30 to 50 years, because the development principle of this kind of ghost bullet will not be available for at least 30 to 50 years.

Why was the Qin Empire able to frequently develop cutting-edge weapons? Production drawings were one aspect, but the principles of many cutting-edge weapons did not appear at that time, and no one knew these principles, so how could they develop cutting-edge weapons?

For example, military satellites. Now, no one knows what military satellites are. Various advanced technologies, such as propulsion technology, are used to propel satellites into predetermined orbits and adjust their orbits.

This propulsion technology is divided into chemical propulsion and electric propulsion, as well as the fuel needed for propulsion technology. It is a profound subject. With the current level of science and technology and industry, no country can develop a military satellite within three to five years.

There are also communication technology, real-time satellite communication, remote sensing technology, attitude control technology, power supply technology, and navigation technology. Any one of these technologies is enough for other countries to develop for three to five years. Compared with the Qin Empire, which has detailed principles and production drawings, they have already lost at the starting line.

So this is also Qin Lin's confidence. Whether it is satellite technology, missile technology, or aircraft carrier warship, fighter tank technology, the Qin Empire can be far ahead of the world because it has a technology tree.

Now the Qin Empire is far ahead of the world in terms of warships, fighter jets, armored tanks and other weapons. Even the most advanced fighter jets of the United States cannot compare with the Phoenix fighter or the Xuanwu III strategic bomber, not to mention the unique missiles, rocket launchers and other high-end weapons.

With the injection of 50 billion in research and development funds, these high-tech weapons will be upgraded again, and more advanced weapons and equipment will be developed and produced. This is also the reason why the global war came early, because no one wants to see another military power like the United States, and the United States does not want the strength of the Qin Empire to surpass them, so the war came early.

As for the remaining 300 billion yuan in funds, the Qin army handed over 100 billion yuan to the military for use in subsequent landing operations against the Japanese Empire.

The remaining 200 billion will be handed over to the cabinet, which will use these resources to promote domestic economic development and push the economy of the Qin Empire to a higher level.

Because the Great Qin Empire is not weaker than the United States in any aspect except economy, so the 200 billion funds will be used to promote the economic development of the Great Qin Empire and improve its current shortcomings.

I believe that with the injection of these funds, in just three to five years, the economic strength of the Qin Empire will show explosive growth, and surpassing the United States will be a piece of cake.

The United States saw this and therefore declared war on Qinglong. As long as it could devour Qinglong's resources, the comprehensive national strength of the United States would double, and then no one would be able to shake its position as a hegemonic country.

However, Qin Lin did not pay too much attention to these. His current task was to use the 555 billion yuan in funds to the best effect and comprehensively promote the development of the Qin Empire, especially industrial and economic development.

Now that the world has entered into a war, prices have begun to double, and there is a shortage of all kinds of materials. Taking advantage of this time, it is the best opportunity for the Qin Empire to make a fortune. If you want to make more, it depends on whether you can produce it, so industrial output is reflected at this time.

For example, a cotton-padded jacket cost 13 yuan per hundred kilograms before the global war. Now, only half a year after the war, the price has risen to 180 yuan per hundred kilograms, and is still rising.

Last month, the Qin Empire's exports of cotton-padded jackets reached about 6.5 tons, or 1.3 million jin. Based on the current price of 180 yuan per hundred jin, the shipment volume is 2.34 million star coins.

These are just cotton-padded jackets. Things like rubber, oil, medicine, etc. are all urgently needed.

It just so happened that the Qin Empire had all these urgently needed goods for export. Now, with the outbreak of the war, the Qin Empire began to gradually replace the five old powers and become the world's second largest exporter of goods. Maritime trade has achieved earth-shaking development in the past six months.

Of course, this is mainly due to the tens of billions of compensation paid by the Eastern Kingdom. Without these construction funds, it would be very unlikely for the Qin Empire to reach such a large scale.

Not only that, driven by trade, the regional economy took off rapidly, and the economy of the Qin Empire began to take off steadily. Today, the Qin Empire is changing day by day, and its prosperity is unstoppable.

For example, the five first-class cities of the Qin Empire have already taken on the appearance of international cities. It is no exaggeration to say that a skyscraper rises from the ground every day. More and more local companies have become international companies, and more and more international companies have settled in the Qin Empire. The five first-class cities have steadily improved among the world's international cities and are poised to rank among the best.

As for the war with the Eastern Countries, it is also ongoing.

Now, the Northern Military District of the Great Qin Empire and the Eastern Military District have launched many strong attacks on the maritime defense line established by the Dongyang Kingdom in the past six months, destroying more than 30 warships of various types of the Dongyang Kingdom.

During this period, the Madui Island was built into a military base, which became a springboard for the Qin Empire to launch a full-scale attack on the East Asian Kingdom.

"now!"

After finishing his political affairs, Qin Lin came to the military headquarters because he received news that the military base built at a cost of 8000 million star coins has been completed. Now Tsushima Island has a naval base, an air force base, a solid army base, and a large number of coastal defense artillery, making it a powerful springboard for attacking the mainland of the Oriental Country.

"The construction of Madu Island is complete. It's time to implement our general attack and landing plan. We have waited for half a year and finally this moment has come."

Qin Lin sat in the first seat and said, "According to the original plan, this battle will be mainly led by the Northern Military Region and the Eastern Military Region. The Qianhai Fleet and the Hanhai Fleet will also be temporarily commanded by these two major military regions, using the Madu Island as a springboard to implement the plan of attacking the Dongyang Kingdom."

"One month at most," Qin Lin said to the six senior military officials in front of him, "We must break through the Japanese maritime defense line. Our army must march into the Japanese mainland in one month."

"clear."

Deng Wenzhong pointed to the Madu Island on the sand table and said, "Our six major armies and 90 ground troops have arrived at Madu Island. With just one order, they can be transported by the transport fleet to the mainland of the East. What we have to do now is to break through the Japanese's maritime defense line within a month. This has to be done by the navy."

"Your Majesty, rest assured, Commander Deng," Navy Commander-in-Chief Ding Luhai assured, "Our navy has two main fleets. Within a month, we will tear open the Japanese's maritime defense line and open a channel for follow-up troops."

"Then there is no time to lose," Qin Lin said, "Let's take August 15 as the time of attack. One month later, that is, September 15, we must break through the Japanese's maritime defense line."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

After Qin Lin issued the order, the Northern Military Region Commander-in-Chief Yuan Zhan and the Eastern Military Region Commander-in-Chief Chang Xingwang personally came to the front line to establish the front-line headquarters, with Chang Xingwang as the commander-in-chief and Yuan Zhan as the chief of staff, and began to implement a comprehensive offensive tactic against the Oriental Country.

At the front-line command, Chang Xingwang and Yuan Zhan also issued orders, for the two navies to attack and tear open the Japanese's maritime defense line, and then the transport fleet would carry the First Army Group's troops for landing operations.

After receiving the order, the two naval fleets began to attack, and the first to be dispatched was the Qianhai Fleet.

During this six-month period, the Qianhai Fleet fought against the Japanese main fleet 31 times, with a % winning rate, sinking dozens of Japanese warships, with a brilliant record.

Now that the main attack mission has been issued, the Qianhai Fleet can finally let go and do its work.

Previously, because the Qianhai Fleet had to protect the construction of Madui Island from being destroyed by the Japanese naval fleet, it had always been cautious and could not use all its strength to fight a battle with the Japanese main fleet. Now that the construction of Madui Island is completed, it has a complete air defense system and powerful coastal defense artillery. As long as the Japanese naval fleet dares to come, they will be turned into deep-sea ruins.

Without the constraint of Ma's island, the Qianhai Fleet dispatched its entire fleet, a total of 56 warships, which was much stronger than before because the Navy Department upgraded and renovated the Qianhai Fleet twice.

The first upgrade and renovation was to the aircraft carriers. Originally, the Qianhai Fleet was equipped with three Daqin-class aircraft carriers with a full load displacement of approximately 2.7 tons. Now, the number of aircraft carriers has increased from three to five, and the strength is much stronger than before.

The second upgrade and renovation was to upgrade the destroyers.

With the advent of cruise missiles, all destroyers were upgraded and transformed into missile destroyers, namely the Changnan-class missile destroyers currently in service.

The Changnan-class missile destroyer removed the original 130mm twin-mounted naval guns and quintuple-mounted torpedo tubes, and the rapid-fire gun at the stern, and was equipped with anti-ship missiles independently developed by the Qin Empire, which were also named Jiaolong- anti-ship missiles by Qin Lin.

In addition, the Changnan-class missile destroyer is also equipped with the Lijian-1 cruise missile, as well as advanced active radar devices and satellite positioning systems. It can be said that the first generation of missile destroyers of the Qin Empire possessed powerful combat capabilities as soon as they were born.

The entire Qianhai Fleet is equipped with as many as 28 Changnan-class missile destroyers, which are divided into air defense missile destroyers, offensive missile destroyers, and assault missile destroyers. Their comprehensive combat capabilities are very strong.

"Alert, alert, three warships from the Eastern Ocean Kingdom have been spotted 45 nautical miles northwest."

The cruiser is equipped with advanced early warning radar. As long as enemy warships are found within a radius of 60 nautical miles, they will be monitored by the early warning radar and the detailed parameters will be transmitted to the command ship.

"How many nautical miles are we away from the maritime defense line built by the Oriental Country?" asked the deputy fleet captain to the adjutant next to him.

"Ninety nautical miles."

"Then we should attack the three Japanese warships first," the deputy fleet commander thought for a while and then said, "Send out carrier-based aircraft to attract the three Japanese warships, and then send out the First Squadron to outflank them and destroy the three Japanese warships."

"clear."

After the deputy fleet captain gave the order, the carrier-based aircraft began to take off. As the new generation of carrier-based aircraft of the Qin Empire, their performance is also very superior. They are mainly divided into several types, including the Phoenix carrier-based fighter and the Type 3 carrier-based bomber.

One after another, Phoenix carrier-based fighters began to take off and fly towards the direction of the red dots on the radar display. Their main mission was to tie down the three Japanese warships.

The First Squadron also began to separate from the main force. Three missile destroyers and a Jiangbei-class battleship began to break out from the flank and cooperate with the main force to encircle and suppress the three Japanese warships.

At the same time as the Qianhai Fleet was dispatched, the Hanhai Fleet not far away also began to move. As the second main fleet of the Qin Empire, there is no doubt that it is much stronger than the Qianhai Fleet, both in terms of comprehensive combat strength and in terms of tonnage.

The number of aircraft carriers equipped by the Hanhai Fleet has also increased from three to five, but the aircraft carriers of the Hanhai Fleet are not the Daqin-class aircraft carriers, but the new generation Han-class aircraft carriers, with a full load displacement of 6.4 tons, making it one of the largest aircraft carriers in the world.

The configuration of the Dahan-class aircraft carrier is much more powerful than that of the Daqin-class aircraft carrier. Its main weapons include 18 127mm naval guns, 21 40mm anti-aircraft guns, two eight-unit missile launchers, and the Aegis air defense and close-in defense systems.

It is also equipped with advanced air-to-air search and sea-to-sea search radars, navigation radars, and 75 fighter planes of various types. The cost of building such a Han-class aircraft carrier, from construction to the formation of combat effectiveness, is approximately 2.8 million star coins.

The Hanhai Fleet took several years to build, costing no less than 30 billion star coins, including two upgrades and renovations, and its overall comprehensive combat capability has been greatly enhanced.
