Chapter 3: Military Supplies

  Zhiyi Miao was actually uncertain whether he had made a profit or a loss. He originally had a good family background, a superior living environment, and a decent job. He also had a beautiful and gentle girlfriend who was about to get engaged to him. Although his life was dull, he was absolutely considered a happy person.

  Caught by unreliable scientists, he followed Red Alert and traveled through time and space. It can be said that the current Qi Yiming is the master of the Red Alert base, and the strength of the Red Alert base that traveled with him is also a matter of course.

  After the Red Alert game was materialized, a large number of technologies and weapons in the game became real. This base contains the weapons and technologies of various factions from Red Alert 2 to Red Alert 3, and even has some weapons that exist in reality. For example, the J-10 and J-20 fighter jets of the Great Dynasty, the Type 99 main battle tank, etc., can be directly manufactured by the Red Alert base. Even Qi Yiming still has the ability to integrate equipment, installing the required weapons on the required weapon platform.

  It's a bit of a hassle that some equipment needs to be unlocked by continuously upgrading the base, and what can be used at this stage is limited.

  With Red Alert base as a powerful tool, it is simply the overlord of modern warfare.

  Accompanied by Liao Huairan and other intelligence agency personnel, as well as several scientific researchers, they entered the main base through the open gate. This large building has hundreds of functional rooms, including offices, machine rooms, etc., as well as structures for storing various devices and equipment. The entire building is actually a massive machine.

  For the first time, Liao Huaren and others did not enter the main base building deeply. This time they took the elevator to the third floor, where Qi Yimeng led them into a computer room with dozens of computers. Although the overall main base is very sci-fi, the computers in this room are exactly the same as the desktop computer on Qi Yimeng's desk before crossing over - 21-inch LED screen, Lenovo host shell, and the configuration seems to be the same, even the operating system is Windows, but Microsoft's logo has disappeared, replaced by a tacky sickle and hammer.

  Zhiyiming sat in front of a computer, opened an IE browser, and the default page was actually Baidu. Although Baidu allowed Zhiyiming to search for various materials, it could no longer be updated.

  "What do you want to see?" asked Qi Yiming.

  Liao Huairén was slightly excited and said: "First, let's sort out the major events of the past thirty years in chronological order."

  Zi Yi Ming nodded and continuously brought out thirty pages, which were actually Baidu Encyclopedia entries for the numbers 1985 to 2015. Each entry contained some of the main events that occurred from January to December of each year.

  "When you've finished, when handing over to Liao Huaren and the others, he said: 'No matter what you see about the future, I hope you won't be too excited, including some important people's deaths. As long as you have a number in your heart, it's fine. If you speak randomly, there will be trouble. I think you need to establish a mechanism for managing these sensitive and important information, because if some of the important content is known, the consequences may be quite terrifying.'"

  Liao Huairou's heart skipped a beat, he had been too excited just now, and when Qi Yiming raised this question, he immediately realized the severity of the problem. For people in their thirties or forties like them, it was not a big deal, but for the older generation leaders, they would all be eager to know when they might pass away. Moreover, some major changes in the future were also involved, and the consequences of touching on some sensitive issues might be unthinkable.

  He sat down, staring at the colorful screen in front of him, feeling that the overall visual effect was even better than the best color TV. Before he could appreciate the wonders of future technology, the text on the screen suddenly captivated him.

  The 40-nation disarmament conference opened its spring session in Geneva on February 5.

  On February 16, Israeli troops began withdrawing from Lebanon.

  On March 11, Gorbachev was elected General Secretary of the CPSU Central Committee.

  On April 4, the British Queen signed a bill returning Hong Kong to China.

  On June 4, Chairman Mao Zedong announced that the Chinese government would demobilize one million...

  It is now January, and what he saw were the major events that would happen this year, including the return of Hong Kong and disarmament. As a high-ranking person in the Qing Dynasty Intelligence Unit, Liao Huaren was crystal clear about these matters.

  The more he looked back, the more astonished he became.

  "What? How could this have happened? And it's going to affect our country's international image for decades to come?"

  "My goodness, the Soviet Union has actually collapsed!"

  "The Americans are too evil, they actually bombed our embassy!"

  ……

  One by one, everything flashed before Liao Huaren's eyes. This set of materials not only had written descriptions but also many pictures. Liao Huaren patiently read through to the last year, just picking out major events to look at, and his shock in his heart was already difficult to calm down. At the same time, when he saw that thirty years later, the total economic volume of Datong would rank second in the world, with global influence only after the United States, as well as various achievements made by the country, he felt especially proud and at ease.

  However, his mind soon lit up, with all the historical data of the past 30 years as guidance, and verified many things that various countries were exploring. At least Liao Huaren could confirm that Comrade Xiaoping's reform and opening-up policy had achieved great success, which was absolutely worth adhering to. Some detours in the construction process also became apparent, and it was possible to avoid them. For example, some mineral exploration in local areas also avoided many twists and turns for the country. Even some knowledge and technology that were already outdated on the internet by 2015 could be obtained here, even from Qi Yiming. As a result, the originally backward national industry could take a big step forward.

  "Comrade Qi, these things are extremely important, I don't know if it's possible to move them to the capital?"

  Zi Yi Meng shook his head helplessly: "The vastness of the database is beyond your imagination, and without the relevant equipment, you won't be able to access these files. However, if we set up the internet infrastructure in advance and configure the corresponding permissions, you will be able to access these materials from anywhere with a network connection."

  Liao Huairou exclaimed: "This is too incredible, and it also seems very dangerous."

  Hehe, with a smile, he said: "Here I have the most confidential system on this planet. No one can access our confidential information without permission. Hmm, some important content you can choose to print out and take away for reference, but I suggest that after presenting it to several major leaders, burn it immediately. When our network is built, you can query information in a more secure way."

  Liao Huairan nodded repeatedly, "This is the best way, but we still hope you can open up this place to us, because it involves too many precious things that are worth our country's reference. We need to sort out some important materials, so next I will report to the leaders and then dispatch a commissioner to sort out the materials. Qi comrade, please train everyone, and then let everyone sort it out. Especially on policy and economic construction issues, they should be prioritized by our comrades for sorting, in preparation for the use of major leaders in setting policies."

  Zhi Yi Ming acknowledged his proposal and said, "This is no problem, but you'd better divide the people who sort out the materials into groups. I will set up a screening system. Those who inquire about policies can only see policy-related content, those who inquire about economics can only see economic content, and those who inquire about technology can only see technical content. The less information is leaked outside, the safer it will be. In addition, I will also do my best to help you screen out the required materials."

  Liao Huairan clapped his hands excitedly and said, "This is really great."

  However, the quick-witted intelligence leader soon reacted to something else and said: "This main base of yours is so big, it shouldn't just be equipped with these materials, right? Moreover, you previously said that this was transformed from a virtual game, although it's absurd, but everything is in front of us now. Apart from the materials, what else can your main base do?"

  He finally asked here, he smiled, looking harmless, and said: "The main function of this base is only one thing - war."

  Liao Huairou's heart skipped a beat as he had an ominous premonition.

  "By building my base, I can produce a large number of war weapons here, including rifles, tanks, armored vehicles, aircraft, and warships. In the past 30 years, we have achieved great success, and I can manufacture all of these. Additionally, some fictional war equipment in the game can also be produced, with an astonishing output. I'm afraid that the production capacity of this base alone is comparable to that of our entire republic."

  "Your meaning is that you can provide advanced weapons and equipment for our army?" Liao Huairan suddenly burst out laughing, feeling like a big pie had fallen on his head.

  Qī Yī Míng originally thought Liào Huái Rén would be full of worries, but unexpectedly Liào Huái Rén was very surprised. After some reflection, Qī Yī Míng remembered that at this time the Heavenly Dynasty was still at war. It was during the period of the two mountains' rotating battles, although the scale was not large, and basically it was a series of victories, but many problems were exposed in the rotating battles, some military equipment and tactical ideas were verified as outdated and useless.

  Moreover, the country's focus is now on economic development, and the military budget is frighteningly low. The level of national defense industry is too low to match a major power. In the 1980s, when China asked the US for help in improving the J-8 fighter jet, American engineers were amazed that their Chinese counterparts still didn't understand the significance of standardized production at this age. Actually, China's military development was quite impressive in the 1950s and 1960s, but after a series of setbacks, it fell behind, and now it is very difficult to catch up again.

  Liao Huairén comes from a military background, building a powerful army is his dream. Moreover, Qi Yīmíng said it very simply and superficially, he told Liao Huairén that manufacturing equipment was possible, but didn't tell him that his own base's soldiers could also be manufactured, and these soldiers would only listen to his commands...
