Warlord: Red Alert Base, I challenge the whole world alone

Chapter 362 Base Upgrade, Ultimate Authority

The upgrade of the base was completely within Jiang Hua's expectations.

This also means that the ancient country has surpassed the United States in all aspects and become the world's number one power.

Whether in terms of industry, economy or national defense strength, the ancient country is undoubtedly the number one.

As the ancient country carried out preliminary mobilization for war in early 42 AD, various fields began to exert their strength. This was just a natural outcome.

In terms of steel production, in just half a year, the ancient country has completed the expansion or construction of many large steel mills, and the total output has reached 8000 million tons.

However, these 8000 million tons are not enough. The ancient country's demand for steel has now surged to hundreds of millions of tons.

In total, the ancient country's accumulated steel production is only about 3 million tons.

The average weight per person is about 200 kilograms.

This number is far from enough.

Because according to modern standards for developed countries, the per capita steel reserves must reach 6 tons.

Of course this is one of the standards for developed countries.

However, the ancient country now has only more than 200 kilograms, and the national steel reserves are only over 3 million tons.

From this we can see that the current annual growth rate of steel production cannot actually keep up with the demand of the ancient country.

Fortunately, the scale of industry has now increased, and it is estimated that at least 3000 million tons of steel production will be added each year, which can just meet the demand for steel in the ancient society and military industry.

In terms of electricity, the ancient country has built 12 second-generation nuclear power plants and 3 third-generation nuclear power plants.

However, the main power generation currently still relies on thermal power plants.

In terms of power generation, it exceeded 40 billion kWh in 1000, and has now reached an annual power generation of more than 1500 billion kWh.

In industry, there are hundreds of thousands of CNC machine tools of various models in use in ancient China.

If non-CNC machine tools are included, the total number is conservatively estimated to be more than 200 million units.

At this time, the ancient country's industrial scale and level were equivalent to that of the University of Tokyo in the 90s.

In terms of precision processing and materials, it actually surpassed the then University of Tokyo by a lot.

Even without the Red Alert base, the ancient country will still develop very rapidly.

But with the Red Alert base, the development speed will be faster.

Machine tools are the core of industrial production capacity and are also the largest category of ancient country's export goods.

The second largest category is aircraft.

Next are automobiles, shipbuilding, electronic products, etc.

In the world's machine tool field, ancient countries account for more than 80%.

In terms of price, performance, reliability and other aspects, the ancient country has left its Western products of the same category far behind.

Not to mention airplanes.

Currently, the best-selling civilian airliner in ancient China is the A-919 jet airliner.

If it were not for the outbreak of war, COMAC would have even planned to launch the Boeing 747 four-engine wide-body civil aircraft, known as the Queen of the Skies, this year.

It has a maximum take-off weight of over 300 tons and a maximum range of kilometers.

However, the outbreak of war also affected COMAC's passenger aircraft business, which was inevitable.

However, COMAC is still the world leader in civil aviation manufacturing, and is absolutely in the lead.

Currently, more than 90% of the passenger aircraft operating in the civil aviation market are manufactured by COMAC.

Companies like Boeing and Douglas are being squeezed to the point where they are almost left with no room to survive.

Of course, it is impossible for these companies to go bankrupt because they also have military industries.

In the world's international arms market, the two jet fighters FC-15 and FC-86 launched by the ancient country are still the mainstay, with sales exceeding 7000 units. They are equipped in large quantities by various countries and have become the main models of their air forces.

In the field of aviation manufacturing, the ancient country is the undisputed king.

The ancient country also has a flourishing automotive industry. Last year alone, the number of cars exported exceeded 200 million, while domestic sales were only more than 100 million, even lower than the export volume.

In the field of shipbuilding, the ancient country has currently occupied more than half of the world's shipbuilding share by virtue of its cost and technological advantages, and has snatched a large number of orders from the West.

There are also locomotive manufacturing, furniture, power generation equipment, steel smelting equipment, oil refining equipment, oil extraction equipment, etc., and the ancient country basically has the leading position in them.

This is also the reason why Jiang Hua is so sure that the base will be upgraded within 42 years.

The ancient country today is no longer the ancient country of more than ten years ago. It has long since changed.

After the base is upgraded, the ancient country's development speed will make the Western powers despair.

[Congratulations, Commander, for leading the ancient country to become the world's most powerful country and unlocking the ultimate authority of this base. All functions will no longer be restricted.

1. The technological life of the base will be extended to January 2025, 1.

2. Unlock the equipment recycling function.

3. Unlock eight sub-bases, which can be placed at any location.

4. Unlock all neutral buildings.

5. Unlock all Red Alert super weapons.

6 Reward: Commander's personal ultimate gift pack, which can be opened after reading.

Looking at the rewards after the base upgrade, Jiang Hua's face naturally showed joy.

I have worked hard for more than ten years to finally reach the highest level of the base. I deserve such a generous reward.

First of all, the first reward is the most effective for this country.

This is all the technology before 2025.

The development of the information industry during this period is far beyond the reach of technology in the 90s.

Moreover, this era is at the end of the third industrial revolution and the beginning of the fourth industrial revolution.

This can be seen from the speed of development of AI.

Of course, given the ancient country's current level, it will take at least 20 years to fully digest all areas.

After 20 years, perhaps the overall technological level of the ancient country will be developed to the level of around 2025.

In this world war, the military assistance to the ancient country was even greater.

Various advanced weapons and equipment can even be used directly.

The army's weapons and equipment will also be updated and iterated rapidly.

The second point was to help Jiang Hua solve the problem of equipment upgrades more perfectly.

This equipment recycling function is very simple. It directly recycles weapons and equipment produced by the base at a second-hand price. The recycling price is 8% off the original price.

For example, if the equipment produced by the base costs 1000 points of capital, as long as it is not damaged and is in good condition, 800 points of capital can be recovered.

If it is damaged equipment, the base will also recycle it according to the value of the equipment.

This means that the updated equipment no longer needs to be sealed and can be directly recycled at the base. It can also ease financial pressure and help the troops to quickly update and iterate.

The third, fourth and fifth rewards did not surprise Jiang Hua.

Unlocking neutral buildings, unlocking super weapons, and being able to produce more sub-bases are just icing on the cake for him.

With more branch bases, Jiang Hua can even use the branch bases as logistics supply centers for the troops, with 1-2 branch bases deployed on all continents of the country.

In this way, the troops can be supplied nearby during combat.

Instead of crossing thousands or tens of thousands of kilometers of land or ocean to deliver supplies to the front-line troops.

There is only one thing in the personal gift package, and that is advanced genetic medicine.

Its biggest function is to prolong life, up to 200 years old, or even longer.
