This Game Is Too Realistic

After the fall of the Charas authorities, the residents of the North Island had already made plans to spend the winter, but they did not expect that the days ahead would not be as bad as they imagined. Instead, they were slowly getting better.

Needless to say, the Confederate Navy were basically a family and would not embarrass the island residents.

The discipline of the alliance army is rare in the wasteland. Not only did it not interfere with the lives of the locals, but it actually lifted the curfew and wartime material rationing system of the Chalas period.

On the streets near the port area, people who had been hiding in their homes for several days finally finished eating the food they had saved, and were driven by hunger one after another to the streets.

Although the new post-war order had been announced on the radio and on the radio a few days ago, not everyone believed what was said on the radio and thought it was rebels who had occupied the radio station.

During the war, information warfare was a routine operation, and the Charas authorities implemented strict curfew measures. Now most people live in information cocoons, let alone leaving the house, even opening the window to take a look outside. Don't dare.

Although the new authorities told them that the war was over, they could not forcefully open their rooms and pull them out.

This is obviously not cost-effective in terms of execution costs, and with so many things to do, they can't spare any time to take care of those who are still alive.

Anyway, the Charas authority has collapsed and a new order has been established. Those who have survived will sooner or later recognize the reality.

As the last group of people to return to normal life, when they cautiously walked to the street and saw that the supermarket on the street had reopened, almost everyone opened their eyes in disbelief.

"I'm surprised, the supermarket is open again?"

A thin, middle-aged man muttered in a low voice, suddenly remembered something, and quickly ran home. Ignoring the surprised looks of his wife and children, he rummaged through the box and took out a large stack of banknotes and stuffed them into his pocket, then carried a scavenger bag.㱕Plastic bags hit the supermarket.

Since the Charas authorities implemented the wartime rationing system, the federal currency in the Northern Federation has become useless paper, and supermarkets have closed their doors because they cannot buy goods.

Now that he saw the supermarket reopening, he immediately took out all his savings and wished he could exchange them all for milk powder, bread and cans, fearing that he would be too slow to buy them all.

The moment he rushed into the supermarket door and saw the dazzling array of shelves, he was stunned for a moment, as if he was hallucinating.

Everyone in the shopping queue noticed him, but they just glanced at him and said nothing.

People like this often appear these days.

Everyone had gone through those difficult times, but no one wanted to laugh at him.

The man's Adam's apple twitched and he quickly walked to the shelf.

Looking at the label with the number of digits, he held his breath and felt his heart pounding fiercely. He shoveled a bunch into the plastic bag without looking, and then hurriedly lined up.

When he got to the checkout counter, he took out a handful of banknotes from his pocket and put them on the checkout counter.

The salesperson standing behind the cashier saw the pile of crumpled bills, sighed with a "Sure enough" expression on his face, pointed to the sign on the counter and said.

"...The ones you take are federal coins. Look carefully at the labels on the shelves. We only accept silver coins here."

Silver coins?

The man was stunned for a moment, his face gradually turned red, and he hesitated for a long time before he could say a word.

"How can I fix it if I don't have any silver coins..."

The salesperson said patiently.

"Then find a job. There is a homeless shelter at the port. You can receive relief food by filling out a job application form there. Someone will notify you when the job is arranged. In addition, some large recruitment units will One month or half a month's salary in advance, and help in applying for a living subsidy loan. You can ask me about my job, which is arranged by the Refugee Home."

Hearing this, the man quickly said thank you, and then hurriedly left the supermarket.

He used to do import and export trade, maybe he can find a job at a port or a Vietnam company to support his family...

…

As the wartime rationing system was lifted, iron pans and kitchen knives, as well as bread and cereals that had previously been invisible, reappeared on supermarket shelves.

Of course, these supplies don’t grow on their own from the shelves.

Some are produced in Luoxia Province, some are processed in Silver Moon Bay, and some are from Golden Gallen Port.

These goods are produced in their respective production stages. They are first transported to the French Fries Port for shipment, and finally uniformly distributed to the northern islands where resources are scarce. They are put on shelves and sold at prices marked with silver coins.

In addition, the Refugee Home Rescue Station has also set up rescue outlets in the North Island to distribute relief food and at the same time register professional skills and academic qualifications for industrial residents, introduce them to jobs, reduce their waiting time for employment, etc. .

The Ocean Current Power Station needs to be rebuilt, and the facilities on the North Island also need to be rebuilt. There are many places where people are needed.

Especially for technical jobs, there are more jobs than people.

The only fly in the ointment for local residents is that the federal currency issued by the federal authorities has changed from nominal waste paper to real waste paper.

Although this thing has already lost most of its functions as currency from the moment the northern islands couldn't control the soaring inflation and announced the implementation of rationing, it still has a little bit of purchasing power.

As for now, with the collapse of the federal government, the purchasing power of this thing in the legal sense has been eliminated, and it is almost useless to wipe the butt.

The South China Sea Alliance is planning to issue a new local currency to ensure that the economy can operate normally.

However, at this stage, since various settlements in the southern sea area are highly dependent on the input of resources from the Alliance, the new authorities are operating with loans from Alliance banks. Therefore, everything from public expenditures to material purchases are temporarily settled in silver coins.

At this moment, at the North Island Military Port, the construction team from Chipchi Port is repairing the damaged facilities, especially the installation of gantry cranes and automated loading and unloading facilities on the pier.

Not far away, on the pier, there were two large cargo ships fully loaded with boxes waiting to be unloaded.

Standing on the edge of the harbor, Channing was looking at the war-torn harbor with squinted eyes, and spoke in a chatting tone to Commander Li Minghui, who was standing next to him.

"... After letting the military intervene in governance, it will become like this. The stronger the execution power, the stronger the destructive power. We must not follow the old path of the Northern Federation. What do you think? Mr. Li Minghui."

Two weeks have passed since the end of the civil war, and it is now mid-October.

During this period, Li Minghui visited Shuguang City and met with the alliance's management as the wartime president of the South China Sea Alliance. It is said that the talks lasted for three days.

This matter is not only paying close attention to the outside world, but also the South China Sea Alliance’s own representative conference.

Although the South China Sea Alliance and the Alliance belong to two different systems, local affairs and central affairs belong to two different systems. As the highest local official of the ring island, Channing has no intention and should not get involved in the power struggle for central affairs of the South China Sea Alliance. There is only one system. In this matter, he had to stand up and say a few words for the residents of the roundabout.

The alliance's move closer does not go against the interests of the people surviving in the southern sea. If their general becomes the new Charas in the process, then all the sacrifices will be in vain.

Hearing the temptation in Chan Ning's tone, Li Minghui suddenly laughed out loud.

"What a coincidence, my thoughts are the same as yours. It's better for professionals to do professional work. People like me are more suitable for intrigues and intrigues on the battlefield."

After a pause, he said again.

"After the war with the Torch is over, I will resign as wartime president and return all power to the representative association representing all the surviving people in the southern seas... That thing originally belongs to them, and no one knows the future better than them. What’s the way to go?”

Looking at Chan Ning with a surprised look on his face, Li Minghui smiled lightly and said.

"Don't be so surprised. I only resigned from the post of wartime president and handed over the command of the military. I did not say that I would completely retire. Haha, if you don't dislike my command ability, I will continue to serve as the commander of the navy."

In fact, he did hesitate more than once before talking to Captain Wick.

However, after seeing that guy's crazy look, the last trace of ambition fire in his heart was extinguished.

Charas was not like this before, and Wick was not like this before... They were all very enthusiastic about the survival of the people in the southern sea and their future. No one hopes that the people here can live a better life, in a true sense. This sea area is a wasteland.

However, once the crazy idea arises, it can never be stopped.

In order to overthrow the rule of Vault 70, they let the fleet selectively reveal the truth, let the Torch Church in, and then began to fabricate lies to coerce those who were doubtful and blindly followed.

As the chips on the gambling table continue to increase, their mistakes go further and further, and eventually, without exception, they become devils.

In the late stage of madness, they would rather burn down the two centuries of hard work they have spent surviving in the southern seas than admit that they were wrong.

Those who become madmen and those who indulge madmen will eventually go to hell. Now the button to end this reincarnation is in his hand. He can become a hero as long as he presses it.

This is the perfect choice.

Just as the ancestor of Dawn City said to him, self-interest is only temporary, and only by doing something that will last forever can you be truly immortal.

Looking at Li Minghui with an indifferent expression, Chaning was astonished and stood in awe, nodding slightly at him.

"...The survivors of the circular island will be grateful for your choice, and I believe the same will be true of the survivors of the islands in the southern seas."

Looking at the prosperous port, Li Minghui said with a relaxed smile.

"Haha, you're so polite! That's what I should do!"

…

At the same time that the reconstruction work was underway, the Alliance and the South China Sea Alliance were also conducting an inventory of the "heritage" of the Charas authorities.

Under the Beijiao Heavy Industries building, two Chimera armored vehicles blocked the front and back doors and stayed there for two weeks.

At first, the employees who worked here were a little scared, but later they found out that the people being taken and talked to were all senior executives of the company, so they calmed down and let it go.

Especially since their wages were changed from food stamps issued by Charas to silver coins, and they were given a lot of salary, most employees had no complaints.

Except for those who have designed weapons for mutants.

Charas once hoped to narrow the gap in ground weapons between the Northern Federation and the Alliance by arming mutants with the technology of the Prosperity Era, so he ordered Beidao Heavy Industries to set up a separate mutant equipment research and development department.

These equipment not only appeared on the battlefield on Shazhou Island, but also appeared in small quantities on the northern front, and even on the battlefield in the Prancing Horse Province.

Therefore, when they received the notice of the meeting, from the person in charge of the project to the engineers responsible for the specific design, no one was trembling with fear.

But what surprised everyone was that the people from the alliance did not make things difficult for them.

Standing in the conference room, Fang Chang looked at them and said.

"...The South China Sea Alliance does not intend to hold you accountable. After all, you are also civilians who are under coercion. Our positions on this issue are consistent. We are still committed to holding the main responsibility for the decision-making process, as well as those who helped make the decision-making process. The secondary responsibility, not the person being held hostage.”

Hearing this, everyone from the company's senior management to the grassroots employees breathed a sigh of relief.

If they had a choice, they would not be willing to design weapons for mutants, but with Charas's gun pointed at his head, they had no other choice.

Looking at the relieved staff, Fang Chang paused and continued.

"But from now on, your department will be abolished, and you will transfer the projects and data in hand to a new organization to cooperate with Jushi Military Industry to produce 'anti-mutant' weapons."

"Of course, if you don't want to, you can also go through the resignation procedures, or apply to be transferred back to the original department. Like Charas, we will not force you to do what you don't want to do. The war with the Torch Church is important, but we I respect your choice.”

The Alliance has no mutant soldiers and does not need to develop weapons used by mutants.

No one was surprised that this department that should never have existed in the first place was abolished.

However, after hearing the follow-up arrangements, everyone started to whisper.

Fang Chang did not continue to speak, but gave them sufficient time to discuss.

At this time, a senior executive raised his hand and spoke with a nod.

"Excuse me...do we need to move to Boulder City?"

This is his biggest concern, and it is also the biggest concern of his engineers and experts.

After all, they are not refugees. They all have their own families and have their own local society and social relations.

Going to a new gathering place not only means adapting to the local customs and living environment, but also all aspects of the problem, including children's education, will be affected.

Understanding their worries, Fang Chang smiled after hearing this and said in a gentle tone.

"That's not necessary. Our signal towers will soon be laid on the North Island. Later, there will be submarine cables. The communication between the alliance's settlements will only become more and more convenient. The new organization will still be located on the North Island, and the cooperation will mainly It’s through online and regular meetings.”

After hearing this promise, everyone finally breathed a sigh of relief, with expressions of joy on their faces.

After the reorganization, the salary offered by Beida Heavy Industries is still very generous. If possible, they would also like to continue this job.

Moreover, from now on, contributing knowledge and strength to the cause of justice can also alleviate some of their guilt for having designed weapons for mutants.

"Then I plan to stay!"

The executive who asked the question raised his hand first, and everyone else raised their hands too.

"Me too!"

"Add me too! Anyway, apart from designing equipment, I don't have any other work."

There are a total of 35 people at the core level of the entire department.

Except for 3 people who applied to be transferred back to their original departments and 2 people who applied to resign, the remaining 30 senior executives and engineers all accepted the conditions for transfer to the new department.

The whole process went very smoothly. After finishing one meeting, Fang Chang quickly picked up the next list and started preparing for the next one.

During Charas' administration, in order to concentrate limited resources and productivity on the war, they used administrative means to integrate the industrial facilities on the North Island left over from the Vault 70 period, and established a company named It is a large military industrial enterprise called Beidao Heavy Industries.

This thing is like a replica of Jushi Military Industry, even more exaggerated than Jushi Military Industry. The production line covers all fields such as sea, land and air.

Including LB-1 jet fighters, anti-aircraft missiles, anti-ship missiles, as well as "Alligator" amphibious armored vehicles, exoskeleton assault rifles installed in the Federal Marine Corps, etc., are all produced by the production workshop controlled by this company .

This kind of industrial chain concentration is almost unimaginable in reality. After all, the wafers used in optical missiles are not a problem that only one company can solve.

But for the surviving forces that have inherited some of the technologies from the Prosperity Era, it is not difficult to produce equipment from the old era. Many irreplaceable components and production processes from the old era can be easily replaced. .

For example, carbon-based semiconductors, etc., have fundamentally subverted traditional silicon-based semiconductors, and this is just one of the technical details.

Just like the ancients, it took ninety-nine and eighty-one days to make a magic weapon, and it would still be more powerful than a modern stainless steel kitchen knife. But if modern people want to make a magic weapon used by the ancients, they just need a steel ingot. Just throw it on the lathe and "push it". At most, it has no "soul".

It is difficult to evaluate whether the industrial strategy of the Charas authorities is a good or bad one, but in the end it made it easier for those who came after them to expel gold coins.

The audit agency commissioned by the alliance authorities took only seven days to check all the accounts and came up with a more scientific "loot recovery plan."

The first thing the alliance needs to do is to split up the huge Beidao Heavy Industries and convert part of the excess production capacity into civilian use. The other production capacity will be integrated into the alliance's production system, making it part of the alliance's industrial system.

To put it simply, Kitajima Heavy Industries, which “can build anything, but can use everything”, will be transformed into more than three specialized industrial bases.

That is, let those who build ships be responsible for figuring out how to make ships better, those who build amphibious equipment should study how to build amphibious equipment, and those who design guided weapons should design guided weapons.

As for the research on exoskeletons, rifles, aircraft, tanks, etc., the alliance already has a large number of excellent military industrial companies responsible for the research and development of these equipment. The production department of Beijiao Heavy Industries can just think about the accessories.

On the one hand, this is due to the need for resource integration, and on the other hand, it is due to strategic needs.

After joining the alliance's industrial system, the residents of North Island will rely on advanced production methods to live a simpler life than before.

But if we break away from the alliance's industrial system, we will be worse off than before.

While Fang Chang was holding a meeting with the employees of Beidao Heavy Industries, Lao Ji led a group of people to the warehouse of Beidao Heavy Industries.

The space here is extremely spacious, as big as a football field, with all kinds of heavy equipment parked in the middle.

Some of them were things they had seen on the battlefield, such as the two "Alligator" armored vehicles without turrets, and the infantry landing craft that appeared on Shazhou Island.

There are also some parts that we haven't had time to see, such as the 4-meter-tall main battle tank.

The thick and long gun barrel must be 120 mm, and the cockpit is ridiculously spacious, and it doesn't look like it is for human use.

Murderous Dagger walked to the side of the tank, jumped onto the turret, took a look inside the hatch, and came to a conclusion.

"This thing is for mutants."

The Kidney Fighter laughed at Yiwu.

"What's the point of not having air superiority? If you go on the battlefield, you'll be a living target."

The dog even said his name, shook his head, and said Yu slowly.

"That's true. It depends on which battlefield you choose. The northern front will definitely be useless, but the southern front will definitely be useless. If the federal fleet can gain control of the sea, our planes will indeed not be able to fly in. It’s a bit difficult to fight this thing with power armor.”

For example, if you give the mutants a few tanks on a terrain like Shazhou Island, it would be a bit difficult for them to stop them with some individual equipment.

After getting off the turret of the tank, Murderous Dagger walked to a square metal bracket.

Looking at the humanoid armor in the center of the metal bracket, his face suddenly showed an expression as if he had discovered a new world.

"What the hell, power armor?!"

The rear of the armor has an interface for the fusion battery.

Judging from the shape and design details of the entire suit of armor, it is carved from the same mold as the set of armor worn by Lao Yi. There is no doubt that this thing is a replica of the "Dragon Cavalry" power armor.

Seeing that the boss of the Burning Corps finally let go of the tank designed for mutants, he quickly talked to the technicians on the side.

"Sea Lion Powered Armor... This is an experimental model imitated by Beidao Heavy Industries based on the drawings of Dragoon Powered Armor! We have improved the motor equipment, and deuterium and tritium can be used as fuel when helium 3 is lacking... But we actually There are no resources to build a heavy water plant, so the research and development of this armor has been put on hold.”

Listening to the technician's introduction, the kidney fighter couldn't help but sigh with emotion.

"Oh my god...there are quite a lot of things here."

Murderous Dagger couldn't help but nodded.

"...Thanks to this small federal island, if they were given a continent or a few islands with more resources, this civil war would probably reach the game level."

The dog took Min's name but didn't take it seriously. He just curled his lips.

"Poor students have too many tools."

The equipment is all the same and more flashy than the others. Are you getting blown up one after another when running on the battlefield?

Lao Yi, who was silent for a while, laughed and patted the technician's shoulder gently.

"If you follow us, you don't have to worry about those problems. We have enough resources. No matter what heavy water plant you want to build or other plants, you have the conditions. You just need to continue with this project."

Not only this "Sea Lion" powered armor, but the tank for mutants can also be used with slight modifications.

Counting the latest destroyer that is about to be completed in the shipyard, the gold coins that Charas has exploded are really quite a lot.

This victory can be described as a bumper harvest!
