Anti-Japanese War: The whole world is a base vehicle

Chapter 17 Unlock more buildings in one go!

"Build a power plant*2."

"Yes, Commander. The power plant is under construction and is expected to be completed in 20 hours."

"Build a military factory*5."

"Yes, Commander. We are currently building a military factory. It is expected to be completed in 30 hours."

"Build an ore refinery."

"Yes, Commander. We are currently building an ore refinery and it is expected to be completed within 24 hours."

"Build barracks*2."

"Yes, Commander. We are currently building a barracks*2. It is expected to be completed in 12 hours."

The moment Liu Yiyi returned to the base vehicle with the one hundred large yellow croakers given to him by Lu Yuhua, Lu Yuhua immediately began to give construction orders to the base vehicle through his mind.

The first is the power plant, after all, all production cannot be separated from electricity.

As production capacity continues to increase, the base vehicle's own electricity is almost reaching its limit.

Therefore, the top priority is to build a power plant.

Electricity is the prerequisite for all production.

At the same time, a power plant can provide one million kilowatts of electricity.

how?

It looks like a lot!
Not much, actually.

First of all, the operation of the barracks requires 50,000 kilowatts of electricity, and secondly, the production of soldiers also requires electricity.

For example, it takes one hundred kilowatts of electricity to produce one mobilized soldier.

Producing a set of Volksgrenadiers requires one kilowatt of electricity.

As for other types of troops, their demands for electricity vary.

Regarding the need for electricity for production in the barracks, Lu Yuhua raised his own doubts: where did the deducted 50,000 kilowatts of electricity go?
The system also gave an explanation that 50,000 kilowatts of electricity can only ensure the normal operation of the base, and additional production tasks require electricity support.

Lu Yuhua then asked whether all construction production required electricity support, including mining, refining, etc.?
The answer given by the system is yes.

This made Lu Yuhua speechless. It was so troublesome.

Not only does it take electricity, it also takes time.

That's right!

According to the barracks' production requirements, it takes 6 minutes to produce a mobilized soldier.

The production of a set of Volksgrenadiers takes 1 hour.

That is to say, a military camp can produce 240 mobilized soldiers hours a day, which is equivalent to a reinforced company.

If the full effort is made to produce National Grenadier groups, only 24 groups can be produced per day, with a total of 144 soldiers, equivalent to a company.

However, the combat effectiveness of the National Grenadiers far exceeds that of the conscripted soldiers.

The corresponding electricity demand is also very large.

In addition to these, military and civilian factories also require electricity for production.

Military factories produce in batches of 100, and the amount of electricity they require varies.

Pistols are the lowest and cannons are the highest.

Of course, bullets also require electrical energy.

Moreover, the number of production lines in a military factory is limited to only five.

This means that if Lu Yuhua wants to expand production capacity, he must find a way to increase the number of factories.

There is no such thing as one that can complete production in one second.

This shattered Lu Yuhua's idea of ​​quickly recruiting more soldiers.

"No need to guess, it must have absorbed the production requirements of Heart of Steel." Lu Yuhua immediately understood that this was absorbing the core essence of Heart of Steel.

The number of military and civilian factories determines your weapons production speed and reserves.

Fortunately, he was released in two days.

There is still plenty of time, and more importantly, the weapons and equipment that were previously produced have been completed and just need to be transported over.

As for the quantity being far from meeting other people’s requirements?

That's not a problem, just give him two more days.

And after those people saw the first batch of weapons, they would no longer doubt whether he could come up with so many weapons and equipment. The only headache now was whether there was enough money.

One hundred large yellow croakers may seem like a lot, but in fact they are not that many.

According to the gold ratio at that time. (Only based on the location of the base vehicle, not the international gold price, otherwise the gold value is too low.)
One tael of gold is roughly equivalent to 2100 French francs.

This exchange rate is based on the market price of gold in December 1940, which was 12 yuan per tael (legal currency).

In 1935, it was stipulated that one French franc was equal to one silver dollar.

In other words, nominally one ounce of gold is equal to two thousand dollars.

Of course, this is not the way to calculate actual usage.

Because the war broke out three years ago, prices have skyrocketed and can no longer be calculated based on pre-war prices.

According to the exchange rate between the legal tender and the silver dollar in 1942, one silver dollar was equal to four and a half legal tenders.

At this time, you can refer to the fact that one dollar is equal to three legal tenders.

That is to say, one ounce of gold is equal to seven hundred dollars.

A large yellow croaker weighs ten taels, which is equivalent to seven thousand dollars.

One hundred of them is worth seven hundred thousand dollars.

You have to know that this is only a 30% deposit.

There is still 70% of the balance left.

In other words, this arms deal can make at least several million dollars.

Originally, Lu Yuhua was still worried about how to gather a regiment of soldiers.

Now it seems like it's just a matter of minutes.

Thinking of this, the corners of Lu Yuhua's mouth rose slightly.

Of course, the more you earn, the more you spend.

In just a short while, hundreds of thousands of dollars were gone.

This does not include the production of weapons and equipment.

All I can say is that money is spent like water.

In addition to military factories, civilian factories also began to produce logistics equipment.

For example, military shovels, military uniforms, bedding, military boots, water bottles, gas masks, helmets, etc.

There are also first aid kits and so on.

It can be said that Lu Yuhua was fully prepared this time.

It's ten times the scale of last time.

Turns out, an instant zeroing out isn’t enough.

Fortunately, it will take some time to produce all of them, so we just need to make up the money during this period.

"It feels so good to become rich overnight." Even though everything is now zero, Lu Yuhua is not worried at all.

As long as the weapons are delivered, everything will be fine.

"Commander, you seem to be in a good mood. You are not worried about the weapons and equipment at all." Long Wenjian asked puzzledly as he looked at Lu Yuhua who walked out of the tent with a smile on his face.

You know, he was worried to death, about a hundred big yellow croakers.

If we can't produce weapons and equipment, we're doomed.

Naturally, I was so worried that I couldn't sleep, so I prepared to go out for a walk, but then I saw Lu Yuhua also walking out of the tent.

But compared to Long Wenjian's sad face, Lu Yuhua's face was full of smiles.

"Why are you worried?" Lu Yuhua looked at Long Wenjian with confusion.

"Will this German guy run away with the weapons and equipment?" Long Wenjian hesitated for a moment but still expressed his concerns.

"Oh? Are you worried that he will run away?" Lu Yuhua couldn't help but joke.

"Don't worry, they won't run away. Don't worry, that's a whole shipload of arms. They won't leave until they've sold all of it."

"No, I'm worried that it might be taken away by the Japanese. After all, the south is occupied by the Japanese army."

In fact, it was not only Long Wenjian who was worried. Many officers of the miscellaneous armies were also worried. What if the Japanese army seized all these weapons?
Do they still rely on these weapons to survive?
