I'm not disappointed, just take your time. With development, some missing things will no longer be missing and will eventually be solved. The only thing needed is time.
"Wait a minute, didn't we get a lot of titanium ore from our previous trades with the New Humanity countries? How could it be insufficient?"
Li Meng suddenly realized this problem. When trading with New Humanity countries before, each country sold a lot of titanium ore to Black Flag City in order to gain contribution points.
It’s okay to say that the titanium ore is not enough. I have obtained so much titanium ore from the new humans. Isn’t it enough?
Zhi Nao: "A total of 2.67 million tons of titanium ore, the extracted titanium is about 400,000 tons, the total mass of an "Avenger" frigate is about 150,000 tons, the first batch of five ships, plus two transport ships, and
Two batches of warships, a total of seventeen warships, have been put on the slipway and are under construction."
Hearing this, Li Meng was quite speechless.
No wonder Zhinao said there was enough titanium ore before building the warships, but now he said it was not enough. It turned out that there were too many ships being built at the same time.
Thinking of this, Li Meng murmured in his heart, he didn't order the construction of so many warships, what's going on?
The doubts in his heart made Li Meng ask Zhinao: "Why are so many warships built at the same time?"
Zhi Nao: "Due to the skyrocketing population of Black Flag City, jobs are scarce in Black Flag City, so new jobs can only be created. Building warships requires a large number of technicians. This will not only train a large number of technicians for Black Flag City, but also bring
To create a large number of jobs and solve the employment problem, increasing the number of slipways and building warships is the best choice."
So that’s it…
Hearing this, Li Meng understood in his heart.
This is true. Although the business in Black Flag City is booming, everything has just started. Whether it is heavy industry or mining, the jobs provided are limited. Although the construction industry can provide a large number of jobs, not everyone is willing to engage in construction.
Yes, it doesn't matter if the battleship is launched two months late, but the employment issue in Black Flag City cannot be delayed.
Now that an economic system has been established, it is necessary to maintain this system well. Without employment, there will be no contribution points. Without contribution points, there will be no consumption. Without consumption, life cannot be guaranteed.
Besides, Li Meng doesn't have many warships and doesn't have strong military power. It is undoubtedly a fantasy to establish a settlement circle. There are many groups of alien beasts in the Central Plains. If he wants to implement the settlement circle plan, the first thing to do is to eliminate them.
The alien beast tribe in the Central Plains, and if you want to eliminate the alien beast tribe in the Central Plains, it is impossible without strong military force.
The "Avenger" frigate is unmanned. Although the internal structure can be entered by people, it does not have a life support system. The daily maintenance is completely responsible for the internal maintenance robots. When not in use, it can be sealed to reduce losses. Unlike
Like humans, they need someone to garrison them, and they have to be taken out to practice when they have nothing to do. It can be said that Black Flag City's cost in raising an army is very small.
As long as they can be sealed, the more battleships, the better. In the future, in order to realize Li Meng's ambition to unify the earth, it will be necessary to maintain a strong armament.
Li Meng stood up and walked towards a wall on the right.
As Li Meng approached, a door opened on the wall in front of Li Meng amid the sound of machinery running.
Arriving on the balcony outside the door, Li Meng looked into the distance, overlooking the Black Flag City below.
With the increase in population, Black Flag City has also ushered in a major construction project.
On the wasteland outside the city, construction sites can be seen everywhere, and high-rise buildings are rising from the ground.
Different from the stone buildings in the city center, the outer buildings are all made of pure steel.
Support for heavy industry has allowed Heiqi City's steel production to grow explosively. In order to prevent steel from being unsalable, the Steel City was adopted in the planning of the future city.
In the future, Xipinghu Basin will become the industrial base of Heiqi City and an industrial city.
"Commander, we have found the location of Shangyang City. Do you want to launch an offensive against it?"
Shangyang City?
After hearing what Zhinao said, Li Meng started to think about it.
Two months ago, the consciousness of being a mercenary encountered an army that might be from Shangyang City at Shuangfeng Shelter. Since then, Shangyang City has come into the eyes of Black Flag City, and a series of investigations have been carried out on it.
Investigation.
Li Meng said: "Are there enough troops?"
Shangyang City is not a weak sanctuary. It has certain industries and military strength. It cannot be shaken by mercenaries and must be handed over to the Imperial Guard.
Zhi Nao: "There are sufficient troops. The Imperial Guard now has 12,000 soldiers, 200 escort tanks, 500 "Warthog" personnel carriers, and 300 Vulture armed transport aircraft."
When biological resources are sufficient, recruiting Imperial Guard soldiers is a very simple matter.
The development of the Imperial Guard has always been quite haphazard. With the existing technology in Black Flag City, more advanced weapons could have been designed. However, because the SkyEye fighter jets are so good, capable of all-around operations on the ground and in the air, the local
When the front troops enter the field, it means that the battle can be said to be nearing its end.
The current combat concept of Black Flag City is that ground troops are not used to fight, but to control the occupied area.
Want to fight?
After thinking for a while, Li Meng said: "Don't be hasty. Subduing the enemy's troops without fighting is the best strategy. Although war is effective quickly, it will cause a lot of troubles. Moreover, there should be some communication between the people in the mountain city, and through Shangyang
We can know how big the social circle of mountain city residents is, so we don’t have to spend time looking for other mountain city residents in the future."
During the exploration mission, the mercenaries used many methods to bring the underground people to Black Flag City, some of which were not honorable. This put the security of Black Flag City to a severe test.
Fortunately, there were no loopholes in the security system of Black Flag City, so large-scale chaos was avoided.
And war will cause more serious consequences, which will take longer to kill hatred.
Li Meng's attitude towards war is very cautious. Starting a war at the slightest disagreement is a willful act and a stupid choice.
Lowering his head slightly, Li Meng looked at a certain apartment building in the city.
On the seventh floor of the apartment building, in a certain room, a wonderful scene was taking place.
"I...I don't..."
With a trembling cry, Wei Qiunan's figure softened and he lay weakly on top of Li Meng.
The two of them hugged each other on the sofa, and the only sound of their heavy breathing echoed in the room.
After a while, Wei Qiunan got up from Li Meng and pulled away.
After tidying up the messy clothes on his body, Wei Qiunan smiled slightly and said, "Captain's body is really strong, but we can only go so far today. That girl Chen Beier will be back soon."
Wei Qiunan was naturally satisfied. In the captain, her long-spent desires were vented. She had a husband, which was naturally not a physical need, but a spiritual desire.
