Moreover, due to economic issues, various measures are being implemented to cut spending, while efforts are being accelerated to address various social problems. There is no time left to waste, and the entire top leadership has been mobilized. This rapid response has gradually spread to the lower levels and continues to penetrate to the grassroots.

The old man chuckled, “After dealing with those academic cliques, I’ve managed to gather quite a few useful talents. However, because of this, I was verbally abused at an international conference.”

The leader laughed heartily and said, "It's good that they're cursing. Their cursing means we've done the right thing, and they're starting to panic. This is a great change that hasn't happened in a thousand years. To preserve the light that Li Wei passed on to us, we're willing to go to war."

The old man glanced at the clock on the wall; it was already past midnight. They were all very busy. The leader had endless meetings every day, always having to coordinate the overall situation. He, on the other hand, had to argue with foreigners every day, condemning them one day and protesting the next. He was like a fighting cock. Once he entered a meeting, he had to concentrate fully on "fighting" with his opponents. This kind of mental battle was also extremely exhausting for the old man.

The leader said, "That's enough for today. You have to go to the international conference headquarters tomorrow. I'll have to rely on you again."

The series of major moves within the country have led to speculation from the outside world. Therefore, the mission of the elderly man's trip is to release a smokescreen to mislead the outside world and divert the attention of other countries to less important matters, thus providing cover for the real secrets.

The old man nodded and said, "This is all I can do. Now look forward to my performance. The plan is going very smoothly. Now I just need to finish up the rest."

The old man looked much older than his peers. Although he insisted on exercising and writing, and paid extra attention to his diet and health, he still looked older than ordinary people his age.

Because at international conferences, he was often so angry with those foreigners that his liver hurt. Those foreigners would stop at nothing to bring down Chongguo, and they had no bottom line. Even though it was their own problem, they always tried to shift the blame to Chongguo.

Dealing with these scheming people every day, getting angry is commonplace for him. Decades of arguing experience have also taught him how to curse politely. At every international conference, he can always find the other country's weakness and make sarcastic remarks. Only when he sees the other side's gritted teeth can he feel comfortable.

Both the leader and the elderly man were quite old, and staying up all night was difficult for them. So, after they briefly finished speaking, they were taken away by their respective secretaries or assistants.

........................

On Li Wei's side, the battles became increasingly easier with each engagement. The number of barbarians dwindled, and eventually, the tide turned, with the humans chasing and defeating the barbarians.

The technology of the barbarians was indeed more advanced than that of the humans at the beginning, at least in terms of energy weapons, they had an absolute advantage.

However, as time went on, humans were rapidly advancing their technology, and even the technology of the barbarians was being reverse-engineered. Martial artists are a product of this reverse engineering.

Human technology is rapidly evolving, but the barbarian technology tree has remained largely unchanged over the past decade.

This difference in development speed has put the barbarians at a significant disadvantage.

Chapter 1. The War to Exterminate the Barbarians

It must be said that human beings have a very strong creative ability, especially when faced with adversity. Once this creative ability is stimulated, human technology has made leaps and bounds in just ten years.

If you calculate the timeline, the current time in this world should be equivalent to a year in the real world, but the various technologies in this world are difficult for the real world to replicate even if it were to advance for another year.

This rapid development is driven by external threats. Under such circumstances, the overall technological development on Earth has been forced to unleash its potential. Apart from various black technologies related to martial arts practitioners, other conventional technologies have also developed well. However, unlike the real world, many weapons that shine brightly in the real world are nowhere to be seen in this world.

In the real world, major powers are developing their air superiority fighters in order to compete for air supremacy. However, in this world, fighter jets have become a thing of the past. Because there are more powerful air combatants, the status of traditional fighter jets has become quite awkward. As a result, in just ten years, the vast majority of combat vehicles have been retired, leaving only various functional vehicles to remain in their positions.

As for ground vehicles, most of them have been eliminated. The tank, the original king of land warfare, has been completely phased out. Now, the support forces of various countries are all taking the path of high-mobility fire support. Direct confrontation is the task of the warriors. The task of the support forces is to arrive at the destination in time, provide fire support, and then run away without any lingering.

The situation is even more tragic for naval vessels. Nowadays, the active vessels are all kinds of martial arts transport ships, while traditional frigates and arsenal ships have been kicked into the dustbin of history.

The explosive development of various technologies allowed Valslan's fleet to completely change its previous defensive posture in this battle, and to achieve a dazzlingly perfect kill-loss ratio by taking the initiative in the offensive.

On the first day of the battle, Valslan's warrior forces began their attack on the lunar core region. The barbarians had lost most of their lairs, and the surviving barbarians began to retreat deeper into the lunar core, where they managed to build a new defensive line, but they also lost most of their elite individuals, especially the worm-type elite individuals with strong attack capabilities, who were almost completely wiped out by the warrior forces.

On the seventh day of the battle, Li Wei's three clones completed their respective tasks and rejoined the main force. The barbarian defenses were breached, a crucial core nest was lost, and more than 20,000 barbarian eggs that were still hatching were destroyed, severely weakening the barbarians.

On the first day of the battle, the defeated barbarians lost their last line of defense and could only cower in their remaining core lair. This was something that humans had never dared to imagine before, but now it was reality.

On the first day of the battle, the martial arts forces, led by Li Wei, launched a general offensive against the last stronghold of the barbarians. At the same time, reinforcements arrived, and with the arrival of the martial arts forces from the Chong Kingdom, the number of martial arts participants in the lunar campaign reached 14,000.

This allied force, possessing both large numbers and high quality, also lacks the internal strife and infighting found in other alliances, making its combat effectiveness unmatched by ordinary allied forces.

Once the support troops arrived, they used their numerical advantage to form squads and began hunting down lone Barbarians on the outskirts. The Barbarians differ from the Zerg in StarCraft in that each Barbarian is an independent individual with their own knowledge and intelligence. Therefore, when faced with an enemy they cannot defeat, they will also flee out of fear.

If the barbarians inside the core lair were allowed to escape, the subsequent "peacekeeping campaign" would tie up a considerable number of manpower, and the barbarian threat might even resurface. Therefore, the main task of the reinforcements from the Chong Kingdom was to cut off all the channels between the core lair and the outside world, and to find a way to kill the barbarians if they were found to be escaping.

Li Wei knew that the counterinsurgency campaign was an inevitable phase. After all, the number of barbarians was what it was, and even if all the individuals in the nests were wiped out, some lucky ones would inevitably escape. Therefore, the interior of the moon would still need to be cleaned up. However, Li Wei could only entrust this part of the work to his compatriots in this world, as he did not have that much free time to do such a thing.

On the first day of the battle, the barbarian's last stronghold was breached.

On the tenth day of the battle, which was also the last day of the planned time, Valslan changed his plans due to the arrival of a large number of reinforcements. He extended the battle by two days, preparing to sweep the barbarians into the dustbin of history.

On the tenth day of the battle, all the barbarian lairs had been destroyed, leaving only scattered barbarian individuals hiding in underground passages. However, under the carpet search of the martial arts troops, the barbarian individuals with nowhere to hide faced only destruction.

On the tenth day of the battle, most of the martial artists withdrew to the lunar surface. Li Wei, with his three clones and a small number of support martial artists, began to repair the moon, which had been riddled with holes by the barbarians.

The repair work would have been a huge undertaking, but with Li Wei's help, the progress was so fast that it surprised the accompanying support martial artists, and eventually they were terrified.

With a snap of his fingers, Li Wei submerged the riddled underground space in soil that appeared out of nowhere. When they used instruments to test it, they found that the soil that appeared out of nowhere was the same as the original lunar soil.

This scene was somewhat like time reversal, but unlike time reversal, it was more accurately described as creating something from nothing. Li Wei had analyzed the moon's structure and was thoroughly familiar with the various trace elements on it. With the data, he directly extracted a large amount of "々.气" from nothingness, and using the principle that qi generates all things, he transformed this qi into tangible matter, filling the various cavities beneath the moon.

Chapter 1. The Great Handover

As his cultivation level continued to improve, Li Wei's understanding of the so-called "Dao" became clearer. He also realized that once cultivation reached a relatively advanced stage, the development of supernatural powers would become very "unpredictable," and often depended on how imaginative one's imagination was.

Although he hadn't encountered any other Qi cultivators yet, Li Wei had a hunch that even if other Qi cultivators followed a different path than him, when it came to supernatural abilities, they would all be competing on their creativity.

In a way, the development of supernatural powers is similar to playing "Minecraft". Novices can only build simple structures, but master builders can use various blocks and components to create all kinds of beautiful buildings. The basic blocks for building various structures are similar, but the difference is huge.

However, when it comes to imagination, Li Wei felt that he might not be a match for those predecessors who had cultivated for countless years. The longer one lives, the more skills and knowledge one can master. Even a pig with poor talent can become a divine beast if it lives for 100,000 years.

Therefore, Li Wei felt that he still had many shortcomings. Right now, he could only show off his martial prowess in front of ordinary people. When he encountered those senior figures, he still had to back down.

It took Li Wei about 10 days to complete the repair of the lunar underground space. During the repair process, he also encountered some scattered barbarian survivors. Faced with these potential threats, Li Wei did his best to eliminate them, killing any barbarian he encountered.

After losing their nest, the barbarian race, an unnaturally born existence, was cut off at its root. No new individuals will be born. Even if some lucky individuals manage to escape, they won't cause any significant trouble. Once the Chong Kingdom establishes an advance base on the moon, those "lucky ones" will face their demise.

After doing all this, Li Wei returned to Earth, bringing several of his confidantes to his floating island. From then on, Li Wei had no more attachments in this world.

Although this journey didn't yield any points and even cost some, Li Wei didn't regret it at all. He was willing to give up all his points just to witness the strong resurgence of the Chong Kingdom in this world. After all, everyone has a bit of sentimentality.

If it's inconvenient to change the real world, then he'll change the Chong Kingdom in other worlds. Perhaps in the future, a multiverse-level Chong Kingdom will truly be born, and at that time, all the descendants of Yan and Huang will share in the glory.

........................

Two months after the end of the lunar campaign, Li Wei and his clone Judal took charge of the situation and gradually completed all the handover procedures.

On the surface, Valslan remains an independent arms empire separate from the major powers, but in reality, it has become part of Chongguo. All the core management personnel have been replaced by Chongguo people, and a large number of Chongguo researchers have been placed in key technical positions to provide assistance.

Aside from the handover of organizational structure and production, the handover between the fleet and the martial arts unit was the most troublesome. A large number of personnel were sent from the domestic side to learn how to operate these advanced starships, and even then, they could only barely manage to operate them. To achieve the same combat capability as during the lunar campaign, it would take at least ~ years of training. Although the operation of starships is highly intelligent, the overall quality requirements for the crew are higher than those for seafarers. Apart from the electromechanical and logistics teams, all the crew members who can board the ships have a doctoral degree.

Two months is not enough time for the country to fully control the fleet, but because Valslan is very cooperative and does not hide any classified information, the country can ensure that the fleet will not betray them.

As for the martial artists belonging to Valslan, excluding those still undergoing training and active-duty martial artists already serving in the military, those who are willing to join the Chong Kingdom's regular army have all been properly arranged. Moreover, as long as they perform well, they will all obtain Chong Kingdom citizenship after ten years.

Those martial artists who posed a threat were dealt with personally by Judar. After their commander-in-chief made such a statement, most of the Valslan martial artists understood the situation, especially now that the Chong Kingdom was experiencing a strong resurgence and might become the most powerful country on Earth in a few years. Surrendering at this time would also bring them good treatment, so most of the Valslan martial artists chose to switch sides.

Most of the martial arts practitioners who posed a threat were from Europe and America and had a very strong sense of racial superiority. The vast majority of them were white supremacists, which is why Li Wei, who was behind the scenes, ruthlessly killed them.

In Li Wei's view, if such a hidden danger is not dealt with, it may cause new trouble in the future. Others are not suitable to do this kind of thing because of their positions and stances, so he asked Judar to do it.

All of Valslan's assets, as well as its various military bases and arsenals around the world, have been transferred. The country that received this windfall has seen its military strength increase by more than half, if not doubled. Moreover, the various advanced technologies it acquired have enabled the country to accurately grasp the future.

........................

In the cozy little house, Li Wei and his companion sat facing each other. There was no one else in the room besides the two of them.

On the small table are two steaming cups of tea.

The leader looked at Li Wei with complicated emotions in his eyes and said, "I didn't expect this day to come. However, we can't selfishly keep you here. You also have a place you must go back to."

Li Wei laughed and said, "All good things must come to an end. This time, for both of us, it is a final farewell. My longevity allows me to withstand the ravages of time, but you, at most, only have ten years or so left to live."

Chapter 1. Precious Treasures

Hearing Li Wei's words, the leader smiled and said, "I am already content to live for another ten years. People should learn to cherish their blessings. These ten years are enough for me to see the day of revival."

Looking at the white-haired old man before him, Li Wei felt a sense of respect for his composure and ease. Not everyone can face death with equanimity; most people feel fear upon knowing how much time they have left.

Li Wei said, "The Chong Kingdom in my world has not yet been able to achieve a complete revival due to certain reasons. The external environment is quite harsh. I hope that you can accomplish such a great undertaking and enable the descendants of Yan and Huang to stand proudly at the top of the world's nations."

The leader nodded and said, "This is something we strive for our entire lives, but because of your arrival, the progress towards this goal has been greatly accelerated. I will be able to see that day arrive in my lifetime. I want to thank you."

The realization of national rejuvenation can be said to be the lifelong obsession of many people of his generation. After all, the passionate young people who came from that era, even in their old age, still have a burning passion.

As we all know, in recent years, in order to catch up with advanced foreign countries, China has adopted a rapid development approach, taking small steps and moving quickly. In just a few decades, China has covered the ground that took other countries more than two hundred years to cover, creating a stunning Chinese miracle. However, this miracle also comes at a price.

Initially, the farmers bore this cost, but now it's the young people who are paying it. Behind every miracle lies a crisis, but many things are done out of necessity. After all, given the harsh external environment, even the most skilled cook can't cook without rice.

The reason why developed countries in Europe and America can enjoy their current quality of life is because their ancestors were robbers who plundered other countries. They shifted their own crises onto other countries, which is why they can live so carefree now.

The revival of Chongguo was achieved by gritting its teeth and enduring all the crises on its own. The crisis of marrying out to foreign countries is addictive, and it is also a way to quench thirst with poison. Once you taste the sweetness, you can never stop. The two world wars broke out because the crisis of not being able to marry out to foreign countries was the reason.

Having learned from the historical lessons of others, this group of people also understood the cyclical nature of history and realized that learning from Western countries in this regard is a dead end. This kind of development, which is like raising a venomous insect, will eventually lead them down a path of decline and destruction.

This is not the kind of revival they want, nor is it the kind of revival that ordinary people would hope for. So, for the happiness of future generations, and for the sake of enabling their descendants to live with their heads held high, the historical mission of this generation is to serve as stepping stones for future generations.

It can be said that the fate of three generations has already been sacrificed for the sake of development. If it weren't for the great gift brought by Li Wei, another generation would have needed to be sacrificed to achieve the revival. Revival is cruel; although a bright future can be seen, this path will always be accompanied by various calamities.

Li Wei smiled and said, "If you really want to thank me, then give me some souvenirs. It doesn't matter what it is, as long as it's something to remember me by, so I know that I was here."

The leader smiled and said, "I was afraid that this meeting would be our last, so I brought the things with me early on."

The leader pulled out a metal box from under the small table. This small metal box, full of history, gave people a sense of the 1970s.

With a hint of reluctance in his eyes, the leader pushed the tin box in front of Li Wei.

Li Wei nodded and opened the tin box.

Inside the iron box, several medals full of historical significance come into view, and beneath the medals is a folded red flag.

Li Wei took out the red flag and found that it had burn marks and a strange smell, the smell of congealed blood.

The leader said, "This flag is a legacy passed down through generations of leaders. It has existed since the time when we resisted foreign invasions and has been well preserved to this day."

Li Wei sighed, "These things are incredibly valuable as souvenirs. I would say they are the most precious gifts I've received on this trip, and I will cherish them. Besides, it's time for me to leave."

··· ·Requesting flowers···· ·

The leader sighed and said, "Why don't we stay here a little longer?"
