Originally, we were worried that the overproduction of daily necessities would lead to inconsumption. However, the explosive increase in population has directly led to the increasing shortage of living materials. The population has increased by three or four times. Even if they are all in early childhood, the total consumption is a terrifying figure.
In order to alleviate this phenomenon, large-scale land reclamation operations have once again been launched. Gong Yun and other leaders set the scope of reclamation around City of Hope No. 2. At the same time, research on agricultural machinery has also been placed on important scientific research projects. There are more children and fewer people to work with, so how can we do it without using machines to replace manpower?
Agricultural machinery is not a high-tech product. Soon a large number of fast and efficient agricultural machinery were developed and promoted.
Accompanied by this is the shortage of industrial supplies. If you have machinery, you have to burn oil, otherwise it will be a pair of scrap metal. At present, the main source of mechanical fuel is the transformation of mutant beast corpses.
The previous situation occurred again, that is, the number of mutant beasts hunted could not keep up with the consumption. Special operations groups and the army frequently carry out large-scale eradication of surrounding mutant beasts. Gong Yun has been running around dealing with beast king-level mutant beasts. Often, just after killing a beast king here, you have to immediately board the aircraft and rush to the next location.
Originally he was worried that aliens would discover the population of the Land of Hope and come to massacre him. Gong Yun did not implement the oil exploration plan for the time being. Later, he became unable to leave at all. As soon as he walked out, ordinary special operators and beast king-level mutant beasts appeared. The army couldn't handle it at all.
Sins committed by God can be forgiven, but sins committed by ourselves cannot be forgiven. This is Gong Yun's deepest feeling in the past few years. A population boom plan turned out to be overdone, with people running around putting out fires all day long.
Gong Yun was extremely busy, but Xinghai and Qian Yi always looked extremely happy. For the two of them, there is no regret in seeing the City of Hope develop as it does now.
Liu Qisheng was also very busy. After all, this method of obtaining supplies through war would not work just by pointing at the special operations group.
Ten years later, the new generation before the population boom plan gradually began to work, and the situation has somewhat eased. However, the number of new generations participating in the work is still far behind the number of newborns. All the people on Hope Island seem to sincerely challenge Gong Yun. The more busy they are, the more they are born.
In ten years, the total population of the Country of Hope has soared to 20 million, and the City of Hope No. 2 has also developed into a large gathering area. The original location of the oil mine was surrounded by the entire city, and the overall layout of City No. 2 was like a big ring.
The most common thing Gong Yun, Zuo Zuotou, Ma Jun, and Ma Fang said was, just hang on, it will be fine in a few years when the new generation joins the workforce.
In the past ten years, the territory of the Country of Hope has expanded to a radius of one thousand kilometers in three directions. The flames of war have reached another wisdom circle of mutant beasts. If we fight again, it will not be in hunting mode, but in team battle mode. The most important thing is that the distance has been stretched again.
Mutant beasts with intelligence are very difficult to fight. Under the leadership of the beast king, the mutant beast group began to compete with the military. It was not uncommon for the two beast kings to even cooperate.
In addition, because of the distance and the shortage of physical resources, the supply of materials cannot keep up. Sometimes, if you encounter difficulties, you may not be able to conquer a territory in a year.
Thanks to the efforts of the Ministry of Mines, several mineral deposits were discovered in the new territory and infrastructure construction began to prepare for the coming wave of employment.
Although it was difficult, we finally got through the last five years, and the new generation began to enter the workforce one after another. This group of people were all born in the first one or two years, and once they start working, a large-scale labor force will be created. Empty mines began to be busy, and factories and enterprises that were originally short of employees quickly replenished their staff. A basic cyclical system of human society began to gradually take shape.
Gong Yun and Liu Qisheng handed over the frontline war affairs to Ma Fang and Ma Jun. The two of them had other things to deal with.
In the past fifteen years, the black hair on the temples of the three people has been gone, and the tops of their heads are still white and black. But I'm quite energetic. The prosperity of the country of hope today is something they could never dream of before, and dying without regrets is their deepest feeling.
Rong Ran also looks older. Although he still retains his charm, he has already entered late middle age.
Unsurprisingly, Qin Yao's appearance and posture did not change at all. Fifteen years seemed to be non-existent to her. Gong Yun is much darker than before and has a tendency to transform into a black African.
Qin Yao is also busy recruiting new scientific research talents. This is a competitive recruitment. After all, in addition to the Super Science Academy, there is also a science and technology city in the country of hope.
New fighters have been developed into two types, one is a low-speed fighter and the other is a wireless remote control fighter. The low-speed one is a reduced version, which reduces the flying speed, otherwise humans would not be able to adapt to that kind of super speed.
The wireless remote control version is copied one-to-one based on the data recorded from the aircraft cemetery. Although it did not reach the expected speed due to fuel problems, it was not an ultra-high speed that could be accepted by human eyes.
No one can control this kind of aircraft now because it is too fast. In addition, the current communication capabilities of Hope Island cannot keep up, and there will be serious delays in operation.
Ordinary fighter planes also have a remote control mode. The purpose is to bring the fighter plane and the driver back safely through remote control when the driver encounters an abnormal situation, even in combat conditions.
New fighters are different. A delay of just one second can travel dozens of kilometers. Ordinary people simply can't keep up with their reactions, let alone make delayed predictions.
However, this original fighter is currently in a very useless state because there are no suitable weapons to equip it. The speed of dozens of kilometers per second is faster than the speed of a missile. If you use it to launch a missile, it will not be launched but thrown away.
However, it has an unexpected function, that is, air bursts will occur at ultra-low altitudes. That is, the moment it passes by at ultra-low altitudes, people on the ground cannot see it at all, and will appear in the area it passes. Inexplicable explosion.
Whether it is trees or mutant beasts, there will be a strange phenomenon of instantaneous compression and then instantaneous expansion and explosion. That is to say, before approaching, the object in front will undergo an instantaneous rapid compression. When it passes, it will instantly expand to the limit and cause self-destruction. It is not yet known what the principle of this phenomenon is, but Qin Yao called it air burst.
It can be said that although this original fighter cannot carry weapons, its attack power is not small. Except for rocks and soil, most objects in its path will undergo extreme compression and expansion, causing an instant explosion, and then no grass will be left.
The problem is the difficulty caused by communication delays. No one except Qin Yao can make accurate predictions and send the next operation instructions in advance. This original version only imitates the cross. Although the number is not large, it is still a lot if only one person can use it.
There are not many reduced versions, and the number produced is not as high as the original version. There are only two prototypes, but this one is ready for mass production. Even the scaled-down version has much higher performance than the original fighter. The flight radius has doubled, but the fuel consumption is the same.
It can be said that Operation Aircraft Cemetery was a glorious achievement worthy of being recorded in the history of the country of hope. And Qin Yao's ten fighter planes have become another trump card of Hope Island. At the same time, it became the political killer headed by Gong Yun and Qin Yao. If it were to fly from far away, the people of the City of Hope would not be able to see it passing by even if they looked up in advance. You can imagine how terrifying it would be. .
