Chapter 166: Base Upgraded Again, Neutral Building: Oil Base
The Far Eastern campaigns between the Renaissance Army and Tsarist Russia attracted international attention.
After all, this war was a war between the emerging ancient country's revival army and the old top power Tsarist Russia.
In this war, all forces were more optimistic about Tsarist Russia.
After all, Tsarist Russia was an old industrial power. Under the revolution led by the new Tsar III, it completed the transformation from an agricultural power to an industrial power.
Although the Renaissance Army is extremely mysterious, its performance is also very strong.
But compared with the old powers, there is probably still a gap.
However, as the war progressed, the development of the situation left everyone stunned.
The Far Eastern Front Army, which had more than 400,000 troops, was completely defeated by the Restoration Army in just one month.
However, Tsarist Russia did not seem to take any action and did not even send reinforcements to the Far East, which was something that other countries could not understand.
If Tsar III knew what they were thinking, he would definitely curse them.
Doesn't he want to send more troops to the Far East?
The railway bridge over the Yenisei River was bombed, and they couldn't send reinforcements.
However, it was noticed that Tsarist Russia was at a disadvantage in this battle.
But they never imagined that the war that started on July 7th would end on August 15th.
The Restoration Army completely wiped out the Far Eastern Front and occupied the East and West Siberia region east of Irkutsk Oblast, taking over millions of square kilometers of territory.
A piece of flesh was dug out from Tsarist Russia.
They only learned this from the national telegram issued by the Renaissance Army.
Whether it was Wu Zhichang, John, Gaul, Citigroup, or other countries, no one could understand why the Tsarist Russian army, which had completed a certain degree of modernization and upgrades, was completely no match for the Restoration Army.
How was this battle fought?
I'm afraid that no one except Tsarist Russia knows the details of the war.
The loss of the Far East naturally aroused the anger of Tsar Nicholas III.
The annihilation of the 400,000-strong Far Eastern Front army and the loss of millions of square kilometers of land in East and West Siberia were intolerable to Nicholas III.
This undoubtedly left a humiliating mark in his glorious history of great talent and strategy.
Since it is a humiliation, it must be washed away with blood.
"Prepare for war! Mobilize one million troops and march to the Far East!"
Nicholas III was completely furious.
His order was also approved by many ministers.
They also could not tolerate such a huge loss.
However, a light snowfall in Siberia on August 8th dispelled their thoughts.
The snow fell particularly early, which means we can only wait until next spring to fight it.
However, at their current mobilization speed, they will definitely not be able to start a new round of war before the arrival of winter snow.
The Yenisei River Railway Bridge was also successfully repaired on August 8.
This time, Tsarist Russia sent heavy troops to defend.
Not only the railway bridge over the Yenisei River, but also the railway bridges connecting to other rivers were guarded by at least one battalion of soldiers.
There's no way this will ever happen again.
The Restoration Army's occupation of the area east of Irkutsk was like a thunderclap among the people in the country, causing a huge sensation.
Although they didn't know where the city of Irkutsk was.
But when they heard the story of Su Wu herding sheep in the North Sea, they realized that this was the homeland of an ancient country.
After all, Su Wu had grazed sheep in this place, so it must be the territory of the ancient country.
However, this territory was occupied by Tsarist Russia.
Now the Renaissance Army has not only defeated Tsarist Russia, a top power, and recovered the North Sea, but also recovered the territory previously lost by the Northern Frontier Court, restoring the heyday of the ancient country's territory.
This is also a source of honor for the people of the ancient country.
National pride exploded at this moment.
Some intellectuals even called on the Renaissance Army in newspapers to send a million troops south to unify the entire ancient country.
In their view, the Southern Alliance and other local warlords could never be a match for the Renaissance Army.
After all, the Fuxing Army first attacked Fuso and then Tsarist Russia, but they were no match for them.
Could the SAARC be stronger than these two powers? This is obviously impossible.
Therefore, anyone with a discerning eye can see that the Fuxing Army has the strength to unify the country.
Now it depends on whether the leader of the Fuxing Army, Jiang Hua, has the determination to unify.
Unification is definitely necessary, but not now.
Because now is the key to upgrading the base.
After the base is upgraded, it is time for the three armies of the Renaissance Army to undergo a comprehensive overhaul.
Once the comprehensive re-equipment is completed, the Fuxing Army will march south to sweep away the warlords and unify the country.
These seven days made Jiang Hua feel that the wait was particularly long.
When the base upgrade notification sound came, he felt like it was the sound of heaven and looked at it eagerly.
[Congratulations, Commander, for becoming the largest warlord in the country, unlocking the intermediate commander authority of this base, and receiving the following base upgrade rewards.
1基地科技年限将提升至55年1月1号23:59:59。
2. Unlock two sub-bases, which can be placed at any location.
3 Unlock two neutral buildings, which can be opened after reading.
4 Unlock two Red Alert super weapons, which can be opened after reading.
5. Reward: Commander's personal intermediate gift pack, which can be opened after reading.
6. Special reward for completing the Unification of Begonia Leaves: Two special superheroes, which can be opened after reading.
The surprise brought by the base upgrade was even greater than Jiang Hua had expected.
Especially the first point about the age of technology.
He thought that at best it would be unlocked until the early 50s.
I didn’t expect the base to be so powerful. It was upgraded to the mid-50s in one step.
Don’t think it’s just a few more years.
You have to know that this period was a time when technology achieved great leaps forward.
It can give him a greater advantage in his future development.
For this reason alone, the rewards brought by base upgrades are extremely generous.
This also means that the Renaissance Army can be equipped with all the advanced weapons before 55 years ago, achieving leapfrog development and improving its strength by more than one level.
Then there are the bases.
After the upgrade, two more sub-bases were unlocked, so he now has three sub-bases.
He immediately had a goal in mind as to where to deploy these three sub-bases.
Sub-base No. 1 in Ice City will be deployed to the Irkutsk region.
A large-scale war is bound to break out in this region in the future.
Tsarist Russia would not be willing to allow them to occupy the area east of Irkutsk.
Therefore, a sub-base must be set up here to supply the needs of the front-line troops.
With the reinforcements from the branch base, there is no need to transport supplies from the country, as they will be mainly provided by the branch base.
The second branch base will be deployed in Jingbei Province.
Jiangcheng in Jingbei Province is a thoroughfare connecting nine provinces. The deployment here is naturally for the purpose of unifying the country.
With the No. 2 branch base, the logistical pressure will be greatly alleviated.
As for the third branch base, it must have been deployed abroad.
In the early stage, this branch base is mainly a resource-based base, mainly providing financial support for the base.
After all, you won’t feel any pain when you use foreign resource supply bases.
The third reward actually unlocked two neutral buildings. Jiang Hua looked at them with anticipation to see which two buildings they were.
This glance also brought him great surprise.
The first neutral building is the oil base.
The effect of building a neutral oil base is that it can provide one billion tons of oil every year, and it can be accumulated.
If only 5 million tons are mined this year, the oil field will have 15 billion tons of crude oil reserves after the refresh.
Moreover, the exploitation of oil bases is just like picking up money. There is no need to erect oil wells or anything like that. You can just drive your car to load the oil.
However, the oil base only provides high-quality crude oil. If you want to turn it into fuel and various chemical products, you need to open your own refinery and processing plant.
Even so, this oil base is very powerful.
One billion tons of high-quality, low-cost crude oil per year.
This means that the ancient country will have an endless supply of oil fields.
The only limit is one billion tons per year.
But it is almost impossible to mine one billion tons every year.
You have to know that in the modern era of the original world, before Jiang Hua traveled through time, the mining volume in the entire Middle East was only one billion tons.
This is the combined production of several major oil-producing countries.
This mining volume also accounts for one-third of the global total.
In this day and age, an annual output of one billion tons is more than enough to supply the world.
Therefore, it is impossible to use up one billion tons this year.
From here we can see the value of this oil base.
There will be endless oil in the future, it will never run out.
"With this oil base, the ancient country will no longer be short of oil in the future, and it can also export oil on a large scale to earn money for development."
Jiang Hua would not feel any regret about the endless supply of oil for export.
After all, this was obtained out of thin air.
"Commander, do you think this oil appeared out of thin air?"
At this moment, a mechanical voice that seemed more humane was heard. It was the voice of Skynet.
"Is not it?"
The sudden appearance of Skynet made Jiang Hua stunned for a moment, and then he asked back.
“No, the oil base also has its source, and it has the ability to extract crude oil from other regions for storage.
Therefore, the crude oil provided by the oil base comes from other places on the planet, and the base cannot make it up out of thin air."
After hearing Skynet's explanation, Jiang Hua was completely stunned.
"Is there still such an operation?"
"Yeah, that's not hard for the base."
This bold move stunned Jiang Hua, who then started laughing.
This seemed to make him feel better.
Just imagine, you extract the cost-free oil from other regions and then resell it to them to make money. This is simply awesome and a completely cost-free transaction.
Thinking of this, Jiang Hua gave a thumbs up and praised: "Great!"
After having fun, Jiang Hua's eyes focused on the second neutral building.
This neutral building is even more important than the oil base.
