Chapter 1329 The war is about to begin. People on earth never talk about 'faith'
use"!
Going straight to the core of inflation, there are nothing more than three main factors.
First, driven by economic stimulus policies or quantitative easing monetary policies, the money supply has increased significantly, leading to currency depreciation and price increases.
Second, when market demand exceeds the existing supply level, prices will be pushed up, triggering inflation.
Third, an imbalance in the industrial structure or insufficient total supply causes manufacturers' costs to rise. For example, increased labor wages or rising prices of production factors lead to increased commodity costs, which in turn promotes rising prices.
The five million copper coins that need to be paid for this war belong to the first type in Zero's opinion.
The issuance of a large amount of currency will greatly impact prices, causing many daily necessities to be continuously pushed up by extremely strong demand, making ordinary people who did not participate in the war become victims.
The money in their hands will continue to depreciate and their purchasing power will continue to decline, eventually leading to bad consequences.
But what about actually?
Holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, Somo came to the observation platform on the top of the first floor of the shelter and looked towards Hope Town in the distance.
Recently, he likes to stand here and look out, watching the town in the distance becoming more prosperous day by day, and more and more new people joining in have happy and reassuring smiles on their faces.
This is not much different from what he expected half a year ago, or even better.
But after watching it for a long time, Sumo always feels that the current development is still too slow.
Especially when thinking about the Tianyuan Territory in the future ruins, the current speed is even ridiculously slow.
It is clear that the current Tianyuan territory is more powerful than the Tianyuan in the future ruins, with more than ten times the strength in terms of military force, more than 10,000 active soldiers, and a healthier economy. A huge Tianyuan Alliance has been formed, and a city of more than two million people has been connected.
A blue star city for people.
But the gap between the two is constantly widening, and now it has reached about five times.
And just in the next six months, this speed will quickly increase to a hundred times, or even an even more exaggerated one thousand times!
It does sound a bit incredible, but this is the key reason why humans can almost wipe out alien races in the ruins of the future.
When the extremely oppressive status system is implemented by the super-territorial alliance, when the exploitation is carried out step by step on every ordinary person.
The rate at which large territories earn resources will reach an unprecedented and terrifying rate.
Quantify with a specific number.
In a territory with hundreds of thousands of people, the materials exploited from the outside world each month can reach between two and five times its own GDP.
For territories with more than a million people, this number will rise to between five and eight times.
That is, if there are 10 million people in a territory, the total amount of materials exploited from outside every month will reach the gross product value of nearly 100 million people.
This is such a huge and terrifying number!
Not to mention that the Tianyuan Territory at that time also developed energy machines that sold well in the wasteland, creation technology that transformed the human body, and various advanced energy stone products. The speed of making money was undoubtedly even more terrifying.
Tianyuan in the ruins earned enough resources in two years to build seventeen cities, all of which started at the county level.
A majestic pass was built that could accommodate 100,000 people, reaching the direction of the dwarves of all nations.
He maintains nearly 200,000 soldiers under his command, and the specifications of weapons and equipment are in accordance with the top-notch configuration in the wasteland.
There are also all kinds of technological research and development, and I don’t know how much manpower has been burned into it.
As Chen Shen said, only when there is pressure can there be motivation.
Tianyuan Territory, which lost the human Su Shen, never slowed down its pace of development for a moment, and squeezed its potential to the limit.
But looking back now, perhaps because the area of the New World continues to expand, or perhaps because of the changes in disasters, Tianyuan is really too striving for stability.
"If we don't distribute money ruthlessly, the old people will not dare to spend money at all, and the new people will have no place to make money."
"Without economic circulation, it is not easy to develop various industries."
A gentle cold wind blew across the earth.
Somo took a sip of hot tea, and the rich and sweet tea flowed down his throat, bringing a sense of warmth.
This kind of peace may be what many survivors and many territories are struggling to pursue.
But for Tianyuan now, it is indeed a bit too luxurious.
It took more than half a month to prepare the expedition materials, but only took more than half a day to assemble the manpower.
This is due to the current streamlined administrative structure, and any order is communicated almost end-to-end, point-to-point.
From registration to screening, each department was very efficient, and the shortlist was given out in the afternoon.
Nearly 35,000 people chose to sign up, and 7,000 people were finally selected.
In fact, if there were no restrictions on the level of the route or allowing life professions to participate in this expedition, the number of people who would eventually pass the screening should be at least 20,000 to 30,000.
"These are enough. If more people go there, our logistics will be under great pressure!"
A smile appeared on his face unconsciously, and Sumo nodded with satisfaction.
The total number of registered Tianyuan Army soldiers in active service has reached 10,127. It is worth mentioning that this number does not include the 2,000 volunteers previously loaned from Pingtan.
However, among this huge team, there are nearly 2,500 recruits who have not yet completed training, or whose training results have not yet reached the passing standards. For these recruits, Sumo decided to let them stay in the territory and receive further rigorous training.
At the same time, these people will also assist the guards to jointly guard and protect the border security of the territory and share part of the pressure on the defense line.
Therefore, the number of Tianyuan Army soldiers who can be mobilized quickly to perform tasks is approximately 7,000. If those selected ordinary residents are also included, the total number of people that can be mobilized will increase to 14,000.
In addition, all 2,000 volunteers from Pingtan will be dispatched, and soldiers from the two fleets can also provide 1,000 support forces.
Seventeen thousand people.
This number will be the entire force mobilized by Tianyuan Territory for its first external expedition.
Putting it in a super territory, the number of 100,000 people at every turn seems a bit small, but it seems just right to sneak attack on the dwarves with calculated calculations and no intention.
Even if an accident occurs during the process, you can evacuate quickly without losing your tail.
"Sending letters to the front."
Sumo said loudly:
"We will arrive to rest tomorrow night and launch a general offensive the day after tomorrow."
"clear."
The preparations on the front line are sufficient, and the offensive plan can be launched only after the arrival of the army.
Moreover, this war will last for nearly half a month. The initial intensity and strategic tasks are not many, and there is enough time for everyone to adapt to the rhythm of the war.
Lock the door of the manager's office and also padlock the rest room next door.
Somo stretched his shoulders and took the elevator to the B6 floor.
Open the door to the guard room and enter the dark room inside. The soft light slowly lights up, and you will see one exoskeleton armor after another in the constant-temperature storage compartment.
But the most eye-catching thing is undoubtedly the black and gold armor in the central maintenance cabin, which is shining with a mysterious and majestic light under the dim light.
To be honest, Su Mo felt that he must have nothing to do with the general in this life.
Rather than engage in hand-to-hand combat with people head-on, or step onto the battlefield to fight in person, he prefers to stand at the back and strategize, controlling everything in the palm of his hand.
But it has to be said that human genes still contain a strong element of violence.
Press the start button, and a long-lasting metallic smell mixed with the smell of engine oil comes out.
Sumo couldn't help but whistle, and his whole body began to get excited.
In the future ruins, the alien race took the lead in starting the war and had an absolute advantage.
But now, the key is in his hands.
In the next battle, he will tell the whole wasteland with the flesh and blood of dwarves from all nations.
A war about survival and bottom line is about to begin!
Red Flower Gang.
The abandoned warehouse at gathering place No. 3, far away from the flow of population, has been transformed into a temporary garrison.
Some temporary armaments were continuously transported into the warehouse for storage during the night.
It sounds pretty cool, although when the dwarves built the underground railway, they already expected that it would be captured by the enemy and become a tool for the enemy to transport supplies.
But their countermeasures are really pitiful. They only set operating permissions for a few trains. Only after their identities are verified can the trains run normally on the tracks.
The verification method is more crude and requires regular input of the commander's blood.
Grasping the weak Demon Soul Clan, Yehu took the dagger without hesitation and stabbed the opponent's thigh. The black blood fell into the collector in the carriage, filling it up and overflowing in a second.
came out.
"Hey, is this all you need?"
"Damn it, Mr. Hunter Tiger, why did you stab him?"
Ji Wuming was shocked when he walked into the carriage. He didn't expect the hunting tiger to be so ruthless.
"How do I know? You didn't tell me earlier."
Liehu shouted in a low voice and handed the middle-aged man to the soldiers next to him to take him away.
In fact, when he saw the little finger-thick collector, he guessed that he didn't need so many.
But the Demon Soul Clan is really too tough, to the point of being unheard of.
In the past two days, he had tried all kinds of tricks, but in the end, this guy was still able to bear it calmly. He seemed not to be affected by these tortures at all, and he really enjoyed the experience.
Damn it, what the hell?
If the homeless people in Qinggang City were so hard-boned back then, how many times would they have torn down the Qinggang Shelter inside and out so easily?
With this kind of willpower, Hunting Tiger is completely helpless and can only retaliate in this way.
Boom, boom.
After the verification was passed, the locomotive began to make a dull sound from the head, which looked a bit like a steam engine.
However, the two methods of operation are different, and they should use special technology developed by the dwarves.
"What kind of power does this thing use? Why does it feel so retro?"
"It doesn't matter what he does, as long as he can walk."
"How did they build the underground railway? It would be great if we could build one in Qinggang City."
"I heard it was chewed out by monsters, the kind that can eat dirt."
"Really or not, can a monster chew it so well?"
"You're stupid, let the monster chew it out first, and then you can refine it yourself."
""
Yehu was studying how to operate the locomotive in the carriage.
For the subway, which only existed in records, people outside were curiously looking at the internal structure.
Let’s not talk about the difficulty of building this large platform that everyone is on. Just building hundreds of kilometers of culverts more than 30 meters underground is an extremely exaggerated engineering problem.
And based on the information Ji Wuming gave one by one in the past two days.
Naturally, the dwarves do not have large-scale equipment such as shield machines, nor have they developed any super-technical equipment to excavate underground. Instead, they use the simplest method.
They developed a special kind of ground-eating lizard.
This lizard is only eight meters long, but it can eat nearly 500 cubic meters of soil a day, which is enough to carry 30 large garbage trucks.
Based on the calculation that every meter of subway line excavation will produce about 40 cubic meters of earth, a lizard can dig forward 5 meters per day.
At the same time, ground-eating lizards secrete a special mucus after digesting soil.
Once this mucus enters the soil, it will generate cross-sectional tension similar to that of injected concrete, causing the soil to quickly harden, thereby firmly locking the structural stability of the underground culvert.
About three hundred lizards are digging day and night, and the amount of work can reach four kilometers in a day.
In one month, a hundred kilometers of underground railway can be built.
Of course, these are just theoretical data values.
In the actual performance of digging, the ground-eating lizard's ability is even more exaggerated than this data, and it can even digest stones and plant roots.
In addition, the soil sprayed by their saliva will quickly soften. With the construction of the dwarf engineering team, the monthly construction volume can be doubled.
The only drawback is that ground-eating lizards can easily suffer from indigestion if they eat a large amount of soil in a short period of time.
The group of lizards who recently built the Honghua Gang underground railway need to rest for at least a month before they can carry out other engineering tasks.
"From here, it's about two hundred and forty kilometers to the nearest connection point in Black Rock City."
"There are three checkpoints, which are set up at the 110-kilometer border, the 170-kilometer Black Rock City border and the final Black Rock City checkpoint."
Ji Wuming spoke up and introduced.
He has been to the dwarves three times and is no stranger to the route. The only difficulty is the complicated inspections he needs to face during the process.
In the past, when the middle-aged man from the Demon Soul Tribe was with him, the dwarves did not create any difficulties.
But this time he needs to be in front. How to explain the middle-aged man's failure to follow is the key.
"Are all the people at the checkpoint like him?"
Turning his head, Liehu pouted at the place where the middle-aged man had just been taken away.
Ji Wuming was stunned for a moment, then shook his head dumbly.
This guy is really a weirdo. Could it be that he wanted to "persuade" all the way there?
"It's okay, my people will kill them as soon as possible."
"As long as you can stabilize them and don't let them escape immediately or sound the alarm."
A look of murderous intent appeared on Yehu's face, but he quickly took it back.
Speaking of which, if the plan has not been set up, we need to break into the opponent's interior first and plant the bomb, otherwise we can just sit on the subway and kill him all the way.
"Is that so? That's no problem. This is what I'm good at."
Ji Wuming nodded immediately. Since Yehu didn't restrict what methods he could use, there were many ways to operate.
Anyway, people on earth never give "credibility" to aliens.
