We promised to develop a game called Candy Crush, what the hell is the Third Reich?

Chapter 98 Shen Yan: A real nuclear bomb hitting me on the head?!

As the official from the U.S. Commonwealth of Nations finished speaking, many people in the meeting room raised their hands in agreement.

Then the scene shifted, and all the radio stations were broadcasting the news. Many people watching TV were shocked. Although some did not believe it, most were worried.

A shift in perspectives around the world.

The public now believes that the bottle of white powder is a chemical weapon capable of killing tens of thousands of people.

The meeting broadcast on television had reached the point of finality; even with objections, the matter was settled once the gavel fell.

The screen changed again.

The planes, helicopters, and tanks of the American Free Federation were all mobilized, and missiles in the sky continuously attacked a certain city, combining the precision guidance of American Freedom missiles with the surprise attacks of armored forces.

On the map, the speed at which the American Free Federation advanced was even faster than the Imperial Blitzkrieg during World War II.

This section lacks detailed visuals, but occasionally flashes of footage showing the coordinated actions of the U.S. Freedom Army are displayed, followed by a map showing that the area has been occupied.

These facts alone demonstrate that the United States Free Federation is employing a new tactic, and that its equipment and facilities are already modernized.

Although it is outdated for Earth, it can be completely copied and improved to become a training program for Earth's troops, thereby enhancing the strength of the armed forces.

As the video presentation progressed, Zhao Ming clicked on the virtual projection to return to the main interface:
"how about this?"

"Do you understand?"

Shen Qinghan seemed to be deep in thought:
"It seems to be a new tactic?"

"Is the first part a 'propaganda war'? I didn't understand the second part, but the equipment is much more advanced than that of World War II."

Zhao Ming said:
"Yes."

"This is 'Modern Warfare,' and it's only the early stage of Modern Warfare. The subsequent '2022' will be even more insane, and there are many more after '2022,' but we won't show these here."

"Because it hasn't been made yet."

After saying that, Zhao Ming reversed the order of the four games:

"Currently, the announcements are in sequence: 'World War II,' next year it will be 'World War I,' and the year after that it will be 'Modern Warfare.'"

"You should hand over this set of data CG to the officials of other federations."

"See if they're interested."

"If we follow the release order, it will only be two years from now before 'Modern Warfare' is released. They should be able to wait. Since they are going to wait, they must support us."

Zhao Ming sent Shen Qinghan a key:
"As for the Great Xia Federation, if you want to experience it, you can try this."

"【Republic Blue】Experience the tactics of modern warfare."

"I will be creating more and more dungeons, gradually increasing in difficulty, with step-by-step guidance."

"As long as we demonstrate sufficient value, such as ensuring that the training of the Great Xia Federation is always one step ahead of other federations, it wouldn't be unreasonable to make some demands on the federation, right?"

"For example, get those idiots out of here."

Shen Qinghan's eyes lit up:
"Not too much."

"If that's the case, then things will be much easier."

"I'll take it to the Northern Army to try it out first, to let them experience it, and then I'll hand it over to the Federation."

Zhao Ming spoke up to remind him:

"This is a dungeon with 32 units. It's best to gather all 32 units before starting the game."

This instance is still too difficult for the Great Xia Federation at present, but it can give all the troops of the Great Xia Federation a resounding slap in the face, and then they will honestly start training from World War II onwards.

Shen Qinghan was a little confused, but she nodded nonetheless.

Soon, they took the game data CG to be released and contacted the officials of other federations. The key was also sent to Shen Yan of the 7th Special Forces Brigade. They also instructed him to contact the old man, as they needed to gather 32 troops to start the game.

But why would Shen Yan listen?

into the night.

The 7th Special Operations Brigade had just finished training and were resting for the night.

Shen Yan then called half of the people to the training ground.

As everyone entered the virtual pod, Shen Yan entered the key inside the room.

next second.

The scene suddenly changed, and several large characters appeared before everyone's eyes.

【The Blue of the Republic】

Next came the introduction of this Republic's military unit.

This is the First Blue Army Brigade of the People's Liberation Army, the only professional simulated blue army unit in the country. This brigade exists as a "hypothetical enemy," providing realistic combat training to the PLA through highly simulated tactics, equipment, and methods.

Looking at these introductions, Shen Yan became interested and began to ponder:
"Could we turn the 7th Special Operations Brigade into a 'Blue Army' brigade like this? To become a 'hypothetical enemy,' so that we can train with whichever unit we want?"

The more Shen Yan thought about it, the more likely it seemed.

"I'll have to talk to the old man about it later."

"This is much more interesting than being stationed on the Songgor Icefield."

The text then slowly disappeared, revealing a huge cabin. The crew was fully armed, and a prompt and instructions for use popped up. Shen Yan used a walkie-talkie to understand the instructions.

They discovered that the several hundred people they led were spread out across the cargo holds of four military transport planes.

Then I organized my equipment.

Shen Yan checked things out with Qu Guang and the special operations battalion commander under his command:
"Not bad."

"Individual night vision goggles, thermal imagers, large-caliber sniper rifles, integrated combat systems, navigation terminals, anti-tank rocket launchers, individual tactical radios, and several all-terrain vehicles."

"These equipment are far behind what we have on our planet, but they are much better than what we had 70 years ago."

"No wonder people say the Republic has changed a lot in 70 years."

"If such equipment were provided to the entire army, wouldn't that make them the strongest infantry on earth?"

These devices all come with instructions, so you can use them right away. They're a bit inferior to those on Earth, but they work fine for normal use.

Qu Guang said with a smile:

"Dream bigger."

"They're already the strongest on the surface, so just use firepower to cover them."

Shen Yan smiled and nodded:
"Too."

"I just don't know how strong this Blue Army brigade is."

At this time.

A mission prompt popped up in front of everyone.

[Proceed to the Inner Mongolian plains and engage the Republic's Blue Army brigade.]

A virtual map then appears.

On the map, a blue dot is flashing on a plain, while to the southeast, there is an airplane icon that is also flashing and flying towards the Inner Mongolian plain.

suddenly!

A dense array of small red dots appeared in front of the plane, rapidly approaching it.

Before anyone could react.

A small red dot indicates that contact has been made with the aircraft, and then...
boom--! ! !
The large military transport plane carrying Shen Yan was hit by a missile. The missile directly destroyed the front half of the cabin. The scorching heat wave swept through, and the plane exploded in mid-air, taking all the more than one hundred people on board with it.

In the training ground.

Shen Yan, who had only been lying down for three minutes, sat up. At the same time, hundreds of soldiers in the training field also sat up at different times. Shen Yan was still a little confused.

"Is this the end?"

Qu Guang, standing next to him, also looked completely bewildered.

"Is it really over?"

"That's outrageous."

"How am I supposed to play this dungeon? I get killed before I even land."

"There's no cover to hide in the air."

Shen Yan gritted his teeth:
"Let's start another game."

The hundreds of people in the training field lay down in the virtual reality pods again.

After the game started, the screen flashed.

The sound of a train speeding along the tracks filled my ears, and the scenery outside the window rushed by.

The game starts randomly.

This relieved Shen Yan and the others. The train was good; even if a missile came, they could jump out of the window to avoid it. At this speed, no one should die.

Looking at the scenery rushing past the window, Shen Yan's lips twitched.

Nothing.

Earthlings are well-nourished and physically strong; they won't die from falls. Shen Yan then gathered the cadres again. Compared to being on an airplane, this time everyone was on a train, which was much more convenient. The mission and a temporary virtual map quickly appeared.

As soon as the virtual map unfolded, a red dot appeared, rapidly approaching. Shen Yan's scalp tingled instantly.

"Again?"

"Everyone, jump off the train!"

Shen Yan gave the order.

No one questioned it; even though it was a speeding train, they all opened the windows and jumped out.

From the air, one could see countless tiny black dots jumping out from both sides of the speeding train and tumbling on the ground, but these posed no threat to the soldiers of the 7th Brigade.

The willpower they forged in the Battle of Sansuo and the Battle of Songgu Peak alone was enough to make them grit their teeth and persevere.

Shen Yan had just gotten up.

A small missile fell, striking a train that had already moved 400 meters ahead of them on the tracks. The members of the 7th Special Operations Brigade breathed a sigh of relief; thankfully they had jumped off the train. A moment later and...
next second.

A sun slowly rose from the ground in the distance.

"rough--!!!!"

"I refuse to believe it, let's try again!"

The words "[Republic Blue]" lit up again, and this time the members of the 7th Special Operations Brigade appeared less than 10 kilometers away from the Blue Army Brigade.

"Shut down all electronic devices, First Battalion, lead the way."

"Bring enough weapons and ammunition; leave the rest of the heavy equipment where it is."

"The Second, Third, and Fourth Battalions will split up and launch a surprise attack from three directions to encircle the Blue Army Brigade."

"Move quickly!"

"We can't let them find out!"

soon.

"Three kilometers to go."

"Everyone, prepare for battle."

hum-

hum-

A faint buzzing sound suddenly rang out from the air, followed by a dense chorus of buzzing sounds.

As soon as I looked up, countless black dots were already falling like rain.

"Damn it. A drone?"

Boom boom boom boom!
The words "Blue of the Republic" lit up again.

"They have rocket launchers this time?!"

"Aim at the Blue Army brigade's coordinates and bombard them!!!"

Just a few rounds of firing emptied all the ammunition.

The rest of the group set off to raid the Blue Army brigade base, which was 7 kilometers away.

Sudden.

A faint tremor could be felt across the plains of Inner Mongolia.

"Commander, it's a tank!"

boom--! ! !
[End of round]

The 7th Special Operations Brigade, inside the training ground.

Shen Yan sat up again from the virtual reality pod, his brow furrowed in tension:

"No, this kind of fighting isn't working."

"I can't even see him."

Qu Guang also looked like a madman:

"This is not something a human can fight."

"Damn it, how come the 70 years of development of this republic feel even more terrifying than the 300 years of development of Earth?"

Shen Yan rolled his eyes:
"How many wars can Earth fight? Its tactics are still being updated from World War II."

"No, I can't be the only one to get beaten up."

"Let's give it to the higher-ups."

Qu Guang was speechless:
"Report it?"

"So they're giving it to those above them?"

Shen Yan chuckled:
"I was just thinking of practicing."

"Who knew this dungeon would be so insane."

"I can't be the only one taking the beating."

"Dismissed, dismissed, rest today."

As he spoke, he got up and walked out. Seeing this, Qu Guang called out to Shen Yan's retreating figure:
"Hey! Where are you going?"

Shen Yan spoke up:
"I'm going to give some friendly forces a heads-up; a new exclusive dungeon has been released."

"Hurry up and grab a spot in the first batch of training sessions!"

Qu Guang's head creased with annoyance. "It's really bad luck whoever knows you."

the next day.

After a brief period of research, the Northern Army assembled thirty-two units and entered [Republic Blue] together.

within the copy.

On a speeding train.

Shen Yan looked at the list in his hand, and Qu Guang leaned over to take a look:
Wow, that's a really complete selection.

It includes not only artillery, infantry, and rocket troops, but also various special operations brigades, chemical defense brigades, electronic warfare brigades, drone brigades, and so on.

In response to their annihilation yesterday, all the units that the 'Earth' Blue Army brigade had, and all the units with countermeasures against them, were deployed. Qu Guang smiled.
"This is interesting."

"I just wonder who the unlucky one will be."

Yesterday, in a one-on-one situation, I was hit directly by a nuclear bomb and a rocket in the head.

Now that there are 31 friendly forces sharing the firepower, the chance of being hit becomes 1/32.

This greatly increases the chances of getting close to the Blue Army brigade.

We're studying it now.

A mission prompt appeared before my eyes, still a mission to fight against the Republic's Blue Army Brigade, followed by a virtual map.

At this point, the map not only shows the Blue Army brigade icon in the center of the plains.

Furthermore, regarding the Northern Army of the Great Xia Federation, the coordinates of the thirty-two units, according to the virtual map, indicate that they are heading towards the Inner Mongolian Plain from all sides. Qu Guang nodded upon seeing this.

"That makes much more sense."

Shen Yan also smiled, staring intently at the virtual map:

"Yes."

Let me see which one it is.

"rough!"

Red dots began appearing on the virtual map, flying towards various units of the Great Xia Federation, including the 7th Special Operations Brigade, which was already approaching. Shen Yan shouted:

"Everyone, jump off the train!!!"

He jumped out first and rolled on the ground.

Moreover, having learned from experience this time, all the soldiers of the 7th Special Operations Brigade who jumped off the train were looking for cover, fearing that another nuclear bomb might fall.

Boom boom boom boom—!
A series of missiles rained down, and the speeding train was destroyed on the spot.

Fortunately, it wasn't a nuclear bomb, and the members of the 7th Special Operations Brigade breathed a sigh of relief, but they soon discovered the problem.

Looking at the distance on the virtual map, there were no trains running again.

"A distance of over 40 kilometers, are we supposed to run across it fully armed?"

"."

"."

"Go ahead and run. It's not like we haven't run farther than this before."

(Oh no. I haven't finished writing about Blue Star's confrontation with the Blue Army Brigade yet, so I'll just update the daily 8k first.)
