Chapter 459 - 150: Promoted to Commander, the Biggest Army Expansion!

Translate to

After the people from White Eagle Country arrived, the nation was strangely quiet for a few days.

These people did not make any moves outside the Qin Han Realm.

Ye Fan didn't know what these people were up to, but he knew that time was of the essence, and he needed to act quickly.

Five days later, the Super-Space-Time Transmission Device was completed.

At this time, Ye Fan's forces had reached full capacity, and as soon as the Super-Space-Time Transmission Device was completed, he immediately placed it out.

After arranging it, he didn't even have time to produce new troops and immediately upgraded.

[Commander's total army count full, all buildings constructed, Commander can be upgraded, would you like to upgrade?]

"Upgrade immediately!"

[Upgrading... Upgrade completed, congratulations Commander, you have successfully upgraded to Commander.]

[Please allocate troops for the entire army, Commander.]

Ye Fan first asked: "Can it still be upgraded after becoming Commander?"

[Commander is currently the highest rank, further upgrades to Interstellar Commander can be unlocked only after unifying the entire globe.]

Ye Fan nodded after hearing this, as long as it can still be upgraded.

He also had plans for troop allocation and immediately said: "Total troop allocation for the Dawn Army, ten million."

[Allocation completed, total troop limit for Dawn Army set to ten million.]

With the allocation complete, Ye Fan began examining his situation.

[Commander's sidearm: Energy sidearm, powered by energy blocks, capable of firing rays containing three abilities: freezing, electromagnetic, and lethal laser.]

[Commander's uniform: Composed of parts including outerwear, military boots, cape, mask, gloves, effectively protecting against damage from ballistic missiles, allows survival in a vacuum environment.]

[Commander's pouch: Storage space increased to ten square kilometers, with internal air circulation system, oxygen supply would not deplete for internal population below one hundred thousand.]

[Commander's medical kit: Automatically refreshes one antiviral serum daily, capable of reviving fully zombified individuals.]

[Commander's vehicle: Vehicle upgraded to small spaceship, powered by energy blocks, maximum speed reaches light-speed flight, equipped with protective shield, able to withstand nuclear weapons.]

Looking at these items, Ye Fan realized that everything had changed.

Vacuum survival, infinite oxygen, light-speed travel, these are things that current civilizations cannot possess.

But these are not the main focus for Ye Fan; he is interested in the troop types.

Firstly, the buildings.

Two major buildings have been added.

[Space Station: A base established in the sky, with an independent oxygen production system and survival base, capable of accommodating one thousand people for long-term living. Construction cost five billion Gold.]

[Planetary Space Station: Large survival base established on other planets, equipped with extensive protective systems and air conversion system, capable of accommodating one million people for long-term extraterrestrial living, construction cost fifty billion Gold.]

The functionality of these two items is simple yet advanced; a space station established in the sky, a technology that existed before the apocalypse, but those space stations cannot compare to this. A space station that can accommodate a thousand people, resembling a small town.

As for the space station established on extraterrestrial planets, that is even more difficult, a technology that was not available before the apocalypse, far behind.

Checking the defensive buildings, there are none, but there are new technologies.

Two technologies originate from the aerospace weapon research institute.

[Death Ray Cannon: Can be equipped on satellites, used to attack other satellites, installation cost ten million Gold each.]

[Orbital Cannon: Can be equipped on satellites, used to attack meteors and other small celestial bodies, installation cost twenty million Gold each.]

Third technology originates from the armory.

[Energy Block: Can be used with system-produced weapons, widely applicable, cost one hundred Gold per block.]

Fourth technology originates from the land combat laboratory.

[Miniature Mushroom Bomb: Through tireless efforts by engineers, the miniature mushroom bomb has shed the shape limitation of self-destructive trucks and no longer uses uranium, with no nuclear radiation, no longer classified as nuclear weapons, though power remains unchanged. Cost, fifty thousand Gold.]

Looking at these technologies, Ye Fan understands that aside from the death ray and miniature mushroom bombs, the other two has limited immediate use.

Orbital Cannon is used for attacking celestial bodies or spaceships; there are no such enemies on this planet yet.

Energy blocks are indeed widely applicable, but they currently have limited use without weapon upgrades, require all weapons to be upgraded first to use them.

Death Rays are great, can first be installed onto satellites to eliminate other nations' satellites.

Just unsure whether other nations will allow time for this, because installing the death ray cannon requires a spaceship, carrying engineers for continuous installations, which is quite a time-consuming project.

Miniature Mushroom Bomb is excellent, not classified as nuclear weapons, can assist Ye Fan significantly in crucial moments.

Additionally, there is the fifth technology here.

This technology originates from the missile research institute.

[East Wind Missile Series!]

This technology encompasses many things, ranging from short-range to medium-range, from medium-range to long-range, from anti-aircraft to ground attack, and even to anti-ship; all the missiles are equipped in one go.

Over twenty types in total, making Ye Fan dizzy.

Among them, there is also a missile defense system.

[Dawn Missile Defense Launching Well: A system equipped with three hundred anti-aircraft missiles, coordinated with spy satellites, sky-eye radio telescopes, and artificial satellites for joint combat. Detection range is 3,000 kilometers, interception range is 1,500 kilometers, capable of intercepting any flying target within a speed of 20 Mach. Cost, thirty million Gold.]

This cost of thirty million Gold is basically the price of the anti-aircraft missiles, as the Dawn Army already possesses the spy satellites, sky-eye radio telescopes, and artificial satellites.

These weapons are a complete series, and other weapons cannot be compatible with those of the Dawn Army.

Ye Fan's early investments have now laid a good foundation.

Just these three hundred missiles that refresh automatically each day can lay a true web of heaven and earth over quite a large area.

Throughout the Qin Han Realm, deploying ten sets of eight sets of missile defense launching wells, can basically keep the airspace free of worry.

These missiles come just in time, directly filling the gap in Ye Fan's missile domain.

Ye Fan then looked at the troop types.

There are no new troop types; the Super-Space-Time Legion Soldiers are already available, while other troop types need to be unlocked as weapons upgrade.

However, in the vehicle page, there appeared a new combat aircraft.

[Attack-36, independently developed by Qin Han, is the sixth-generation combat aircraft, equipped with three turbofan engines, maximum takeoff weight 60 tons, combat radius 3,000 kilometers, missile coverage 4,000 kilometers, can carry ten tons of ammunition. Main ammunition bay carries 6 Lightning-17 air-to-air missiles, or two Eagle-21 anti-ship missiles; secondary ammunition bay carries 6 Lightning-15 air-to-air missiles. Radar detection radius is 600 kilometers, cruise speed is 2.5 Mach, fully stealth design, radar cross-sectional area is 0.0001 square meters. Price fifty thousand Gold. Note: Star Promotion once, increases speed by 0.2 Mach, increases payload by one ton.]

Seeing this combat aircraft, Ye Fan felt very happy.

This was the sixth-generation combat aircraft that had just been released before the apocalypse, entering service just in time, more practical than those distant aerospace weapons.

Currently, the enemy has fifth-generation combat aircraft, making this plane essential for maintaining air combat superiority.

Besides this combat aircraft, there are some other scattered auxiliary vehicles, but their roles are not too significant now.

For example, new rocket launchers with a range exceeding 500 kilometers.

For example, large supply ships capable of handling logistics tasks.

For example, the latest helicopters, which are quite superior in performance, yet not very significant at the moment.

However, there is a new combat vehicle that piqued Ye Fan's interest.

[Missile Train: A true war machine, equipped with two fully electric propulsion locomotives, ten missile carriages capable of carrying fifty various types of missiles, primarily for ground attack, maximum speed 450 kilometers per hour, staffed with twenty personnel, price ten million Gold.]

Ye Fan quite liked this train; currently, the railway lines of various nations have not been truly utilized, while before the apocalypse, Qin Han had a very extensive railway network, including many intercontinental railroads.

These railways can be utilized by Ye Fan to advance the missile trains into other countries for a devastating strike.

However, in Ye Fan's view, these still do not represent a qualitative leap.

The true qualitative leap for the troops comes from continued technological research and development.

Ye Fan consulted with the engineers, and they provided a lot of information.

Now having just upgraded, they have started new work, and the next step is to continuously upgrade the weapons of the Dawn Army.

For instance, aircraft carriers may one day be upgraded to aerospace carriers.

For instance, combat aircraft can be upgraded to space flight vehicles, capable of deploying protective shields and firing lasers in combat.

For instance, war fortresses could be upgraded to space battle fortresses for space defense.

Even the most basic soldiers might be upgraded to mech warriors one day.

But all these things require a great deal of time to research and develop; it is not something that can be operational within one or two months.

Ye Fan is not in a rush, as the Dawn Army already has enough strength to deal with the current crisis.

Ye Fan has more than eight billion in hand, and he immediately began massive troop production.

In his plan, the Dawn Army is to have ten armies!

Each army consists of five divisions, each division has 120,000 people.

The reason for having 120,000 rather than 100,000 is that there needs to be five heavy armored composite brigades.

Heavy armored composite brigades are the elite troops of Qin Han, including various weaponry such as tank units, air force aircraft, and even various missiles within a brigade.

One brigade can annihilate a country, and that's no joke.

Ye Fan's ten armies are to be equipped with fifty heavy armored composite brigades, with each army having five.

Each field division's combat brigade is changed to a mechanized infantry brigade, then equipped with a heavy armored composite brigade, giving each division six brigades.

Taking action immediately, Ye Fan started the largest-scale troop production since the founding of the Dawn Army.
