I have a map editor

"We have a comrade... Never mind, let Zhao Qing come. She used to be a lecturer at the Party School, and she is very sensible. When we introduce the situation to her, it won't offend our friend. You think she is familiar with English and has a rough grasp of Chinese?"

"right"

"That's no problem. I really envy you extraordinary people. Your learning ability is so amazing."

The two chatted for a while before Zheng Zhi said goodbye and left.

The next day, Zheng Zhi's wife Zhao Qing came out to receive them. The modern "Lina" and her two followers had some custom-made clothes suitable for wearing in this world.

"Linna" paid the relevant expenses herself. Yang Sheng was not a stingy person, so he also paid Zheng Zhi several thousand Crown Eagle Mountain [gold coins] as travel expenses for "Linna".

At this time, the Crown Eagle Mountain [gold coin] has become the official currency of Yang Sheng's forces. After friendly trade exchanges between the two sides, its value is much more valuable than the same weight of gold. Moreover, because of some magical properties, for example, in the magic world, this currency can be used as a spell consumable, replacing many precious magic materials to cast high-level spells. Its value has far exceeded the category of "currency".

Many of the staff members sent by Zheng Zhi to Yang Sheng have obtained advanced extraordinary professions above [Town Citizens], and have about a dozen spellcasters. Some of them stayed in Guanying Mountain to continue working and studying, while others have returned to cooperate with various scientific research units in experiments and tests.

As I said, go and go, there is going only when there is coming. Yang Sheng had always welcomed these people and did not treat them as a scourge to be wary of or reject. He did not give them any discounts on the training fees, but he did not treat them as fools either. He just charged them what they deserved.

However, in this regard, the attitude of Zheng Zhi's team or the mysterious country is similar to that of the nobles and landlords in Stuart County. They are willing to pay a high price for a place for further studies.

……

Yang Sheng brought "Linna" here to visit the world, mainly the mysterious country, and did not take any other action.

Now that the affairs at Fruit Island were going on in an orderly manner, he didn't need to go there every day to keep an eye on them, make arrangements and respond to situations. He only needed to go there once a week.

I stayed at the Shanghai villa, reported for work on a regular basis every day, and went to Emily's school on weekends to fulfill my duties as a fitness consultant for the martial arts club.

Of course, happiness is not something that should be told to outsiders. We only need to know the happiness of having a family and the harmony between the husband and wife.

Occasionally, when they think of a new dish or a special recipe, the students in the martial arts club can enjoy the membership benefits brought by Emily and have a free meal at "Rong Xin Ji".

If it is spread through WeChat Moments or Emily's videos, it will often attract the real-name envy of a large number of alumni and netizens.

In other words, Yang Sheng was unwilling to show up in public, otherwise "Rong Xinji" would want to promote and package him as a celebrity chef. Not to mention the revenue brought by the popular fast food products produced by the brand established by "Rong Xinji" based on his "creativity" and suggestions, even the "braised chicken with rice" that is now expanding rapidly across the country can make Zhao Bojun wake up with a smile in his sleep.

However, in terms of business operations, "Rong Xin Ji" accepted Yang Sheng's advice and did not become greedy. Their restaurant has always been high-end. They did not hold on to dishes that were not suitable for high-end dinners or dishes that catered to the general public's tastes and eating styles. Some of them were announced as free promotional projects, such as grilled chicken racks and crayfish.

They treat some dishes and eating methods with local characteristics, such as beef stomach hotpot, pancake skin, roasted rabbit head, seafood rice, etc., as cooperation projects and ask local governments to promote them.

Even this world’s "A Bite of China" was born... Anyway, reality is so magical, we won’t talk about 0202. In this world, when even American and Europa are having a hard time, the mysterious country is not only well-fed and basically free from pests, but also promoting delicacies from all over the country in food documentaries.

Here we need to mention America again.

After such a long time, Yang Sheng finally figured out why they implemented the global contraction strategy.

The Cold War Iron Curtain confrontation also exists in this world, so the triple island chains that are said to be for defense against aliens also exist, but the funny thing is this, the sky demon insects are also aliens to a certain extent, at least they are foreign creatures, and they really came.

Moreover, the breakthrough method was very magical. It came out from countless space channels densely distributed throughout the earth and directly broke through the earth's original strategic defense pattern in one fell swoop. The triple island chain really became a military defense means to defend against aliens.

Then American backed off. On the one hand, they did not want to continue providing costly protection to the cosmic superpower and District 11... because it was not cost-effective. On the other hand, their backyard was unstable, that is, the problem in America was quite serious.

Too far from heaven, too close to America,

Therefore, all South American countries are quite weak. Although Brazil and Mexico have so-called daily life, those are just small-scale conflicts and fights. They are not worthy of being on the table at all, not to mention the systematic war between China, the United States and Russia. Any one of the monsters in East Asia can flatten them.

Although Cao County's equipment is a bit outdated and the transport plane used for airdropping paratroopers is still a propeller-driven four-wing aircraft, their equipment is really comprehensive. They have a complete range of services, including navy, army and air force. It is said that they have more than 5000 tanks and armored vehicles of various types. As long as they have enough fuel, they can create a steel torrent that even Russia cannot.

After the outbreak of the demon insect pest, the whole world was wailing, but there was no sound at all in Cao County.

But netizens are a magical group. According to some gossip collected by Yang Sheng, there may be one of only two places in the world where people's living standards are rising instead of falling. The other one is a mysterious country.

At least now the people there can eat canned insect meat every day...

In a sense, the celestial demon insects are not a pest to Cao County, but a protein supplement sent from heaven.

Although the cosmic superpower does not have a large weapon, its conventional force is not weak at all in this situation. With more than 3000 tanks, its navy and air force are not weak either. However, compared with their poor relatives in the north, they are no longer used to the situation of eating military hot pot in the past.

Moreover, under the premise that global trade has been greatly affected, it would be difficult to maintain a military force of this scale without the support of the Juche ideology of Cao County.

After all, it is easy to go from frugality to extravagance, but it is difficult to go from extravagance to frugality.

And after the American withdrawal, they also lost the source of raw materials for the troops' hot pot.

But although Americon's father is gone, their traditional master for two thousand years is still here, and their body memory still retains the sense of the original owner's shape, so it is quite natural for them to change back.

It's just that the mysterious country is not willing to play the butterfly stroke in the cesspool now. It is because the three countries have complementary industrial and economic aspects, and as a responsible major country, it is necessary to maintain the balance and stability of regional security, and it is natural to manage its own security scope, so it has taken over some regional affairs.

For example, regular maritime patrols and escorts.

In addition, the three kingdoms here refer to the mysterious kingdom, the eleven districts and the cosmic superpower, and Cao County is not included.

The place of Cao County may only have some coal resources, and the tribute called "Goryeo maids" in ancient times... but obviously the latter does not conform to the value concept of the mysterious country now.

The problems in District 11 are more serious than those of the superpowers in the universe. Not to mention the Reiwa generation, even the Heisei generation is terrible. For example, the series of fraud incidents parallel to Kobe Steel directly reduced their craftsmanship to the spirit of craftsmanship, and they were the ones who did it.

That is, in a few areas, they still retain the capital that some mysterious creatures can brag about, such as nail clippers, certain industrial additives, small chemical products and lenses.

However, in the field of international competition, nail clippers and industrial additives are not yet important areas. How can camera lenses increase their voice?

Although the mysterious country here is affected by the infestation of celestial demons and insects and has not developed manned space technology, a similar Beidou global positioning system has been put into use and opened to commercial use. If you want to maintain your own national security and establish a precise and effective defense system and communications, do you want to use this satellite system?

The mysterious country has a complete set of efficient and automatic military processing systems. Under the premise that international trade has been greatly affected, its own trade income has dropped sharply. American and Europa are also unable to take care of themselves. Do they need to issue national defense orders to the mysterious country that is so close?

Apart from anything else, the barrel self-tightening processing equipment alone is something that makes all countries except America and Hans Cat drool and desire to own it.

It is true that the divine muscle exoskeleton is a defensive weapon, but when it comes to killing efficiency, these thermal weapons are still the best.

In addition, the mysterious country also has a 100,000-ton forging press, which is a national heavy equipment that can manufacture all heavy equipment. In order to reduce manufacturing costs and shorten construction period, even America has to send some orders here for processing.

Now the American fleet is used to maintain daily patrols and escorts in the Americas, and by protecting those South American countries, they ensure their own material supply and regional stability.

……

The daily life at "Linna" is pretty pleasant and relaxing.

She dyed her hair and had a pair of custom-made contact lenses that masked the color of her pupils, in order to cover up the physical features that could easily excite some Chinese people.

Some of the people here do not include Yang Sheng.

Her daily routine is to visit libraries, archives, and museums under the guidance of Zhao Qing, not only to learn about the history of her country, but also the history of the world.

This made "Lina" feel at ease, but at the same time she felt some indescribable emotions.

She felt relieved because it turned out that Yang Sheng was not just after her body.

The inexplicable little emotion was that Yang Sheng didn't lust after her body... No, the tone should be "How could Yang Sheng not lust after her body! ?

This may be the self-esteem of being a top beauty... So we men are really in a difficult situation, a train dilemma, we can't be greedy for her body, and we can't not be greedy for her body. Are we beasts or worse than beasts? Maybe the ultimate solution is to stack up all the buffs like the gender-changed American General...

Okay, just kidding. After adapting here for a few days, she began to understand why Yang Sheng brought her here.

My vision is really too small.

And just like Yang Sheng said, some things are too pale to be expressed in words alone, so it would be better to let her come and witness it with her own eyes so that she can have a better understanding.

Her greatest desire is to restore the former glory of "Ishatar Island". The population of the entire "Ishatar" kingdom, including the villages and supply points on the island, does not exceed 5... but the total population of the city under her feet exceeds 2400 million.

As a ruler who had personally managed a small country, she knew clearly how difficult it was to obtain the materials needed to maintain the kingdom...so from the perspective of a manager, she really couldn't imagine what it would be like to increase the difficulty by nearly 500 times.

Sometimes when she stood on a high place and saw the fierce flow of cars and people on the streets and roads below, she would feel like worshipping them. The secret sense of superiority that she was a noble fairy dragon disappeared in the face of the might of such a city's scale and population.

So she started to think again about what she had discussed with Yang Sheng.

"What kind of level do you want to achieve?"

She felt that what Yang Sheng really wanted to ask was:

"What kind of Ishatar do you want to build?"

or "What kind of Falling Star Sea do you want to build?"

0062

One night, Yang Sheng was suddenly awakened from the embrace of a warm and soft beauty.

However, his movements were not big and did not wake up the three people around him.

He lay there for a while, his arm across his forehead.

He discovered that the cause of his nightmare was not because Laurel put the headlights into his face, causing him to have confused perceptions while sleeping, or because of lack of oxygen.

Instead, he recalled the feeling of the shadow of death brushing against his chest when the brown-skinned orc leader chopped him with an axe.

It's not a matter of mental demons or anything like that. A normal person would struggle with this kind of life-and-death fear for a while.

"It was still a bit reckless... But at the time there was no better way than to do it myself..."

"But if it were me, I probably wouldn't act as a tank to draw the fire, but would try to shoot from a distance first..."

"In the final analysis, it's still because of my own lack of strength."

After adjusting his mood, he did not dwell on issues like whether he should work hard on cultivation or not, because he had a clear definition of himself. He was not the protagonist in a hot-blooded novel or comic. He would try to do less manual labor in the future and fell asleep again quickly.

However, this dream reminded him of something that he had previously overlooked.

The next day he contacted Zheng Zhi and they talked for about two hours in the study.

Zheng Zhi needs to make some contacts before he can proceed with the next thing, which will take a few days.

……

There are many houses in Yang Sheng's villa complex, so "Lina" and the two maids were just arranged to stay next door. The main reason was that the three of them needed to come over for dinner, so it was more convenient to live closer.

In addition to visiting and learning, and changing their own cognition, "Linna"'s itinerary actually also includes sightseeing and shopping, so if the three of them ignore the background of their homes being destroyed and people being killed, they are still very happy.

The reason why Zheng Zhi specially found a scholar who knew the history of a certain party to explain the development history of the earth to "Linna" was because when it came to many deeds of a certain party that could not be clearly stated, many scholars could not give a reasonable explanation.

For example, the West was far more advanced than the mysterious country at that time, and had more detailed records. Their technology was also very advanced at that time, and there were many photos and video materials preserved... But when it comes to the Cao County battlefield, most of their scholars would only give an explanation of human wave tactics.

For example, earlier, why could a group of people who came from humble backgrounds build a team with such strong core cohesion? With the same historical background, why was the team here not as corrupt as the team on the opposite side? Why did the same soldiers on the opposite side meet all the cognition of Western scholars, but once they moved to this side, they could immediately pin America to the ground with their iron will on the battlefield of Cao County.

Yang Sheng received systematic education in the mysterious kingdom, but the teacher only briefly mentioned these things in class, and the teacher didn't even know the specific answers to these questions. Later, when Yang Sheng talked with people online, he fell into a vicious circle of inertial cognition: people always understand things according to their own understanding of things.

For example, regarding the problem of cohesion and combat effectiveness, before understanding the real reasons, that is, the specific practices of a certain party, Yang Sheng was misled by public opinion and always thought it was a problem of "comparing the worst". The Republic of China was really bad, but in fact it was a certain party that was too awesome.

He had a rough understanding of the modern history of the mysterious country in the world of demon insect pests, which was basically the same as his own, so he went there all the way and brought "Lina" here directly to give her a realistic education.

A lot of information and documents are open to the public, but few people are willing to understand them.

In fact, before Zhao Qing became Lina's tour guide, Yang Sheng had interviewed her, which was to give her the specific answers to this series of questions. Zhao Qing's answers made him very satisfied.

That's why she was allowed to arrange her own itinerary with "Lina" in the following days.

(I recommend interested readers to watch the video of "Thinking Lab" on Bilibili, which talks about why a certain party that cannot be named is so combative.

Two issues, and there was an issue about the Vietnam War before that, so I won’t go into too much detail about the word count.)

As for how much "Linna" can learn, he still has some expectations. Her behavior of staying behind to cover the retreat during the battle to break the city made Yang Sheng think that she was a good dragon, so he brought her here to expand the limitations of the times.

……

A few days later, after receiving Zheng Zhi's notice, Yang Sheng and Emily both asked for leave.

We took the special car provided by Zheng Zhi and first went to the air defense barracks on the hill next to us, where there was a helicopter landing airport. We took a helicopter here and came to the sea of ​​Shanghai. We landed on the domestically-made aircraft carrier that was still sailing, and then transferred to two J-15s and flew south for more than an hour.

When landing at an airport on an island, Zheng Zhi was waiting on the ground in a Dongfeng Mengshi.

"Damn, you're really wild. This scene seems to be a big one?"

After getting in the car, Yang Sheng said to him.

Emily was very excited to see both aircraft carriers and carrier-based aircraft along the way. She spoke Chinese when talking to Yang Sheng. After landing, apart from saying hello to her acquaintance Zheng Zhi, she did not stick to Yang Sheng as usual.

"We are actually quite curious about how much role the extraordinary people can play in modern warfare. And from what you said, it seems that we can also participate in that friend's cause of saving the country in the future?"

Zheng Zhi, wearing a combat uniform without shoulder straps or any other identification marks, was half-turned in the front seat of the jeep, communicating with Yang Sheng in the back seat. While talking, he handed them identity cards with their photos printed on them.

"Huh? Our country will take the initiative to send troops to participate in other countries' military operations?" Yang Sheng leaned back tactically and made a surprised expression.

The driver was a strange young man, also in a neat combat uniform, but with his military rank on his collar and identification marks on his arms.

Hearing their conversation, he couldn't help but look at them.

"The place where our friend is located is not within the scope of our agreement. If a vicious incident like genocide really happens there, any normal country will make a statement."

Zheng Zhi's answer was ambiguous and vague, but the underlying meaning was expressed very clearly.

Yang Sheng was not joking this time, and said seriously: "First, you...well, you have to establish diplomatic relations with this friend like I did. You can decide what specific agreement to sign. Only then can you have a legitimate reason. Then we have to discuss whether those beasts...ahem, those enemies of our friend, have any (meow) human rights issues..."

This time it was Zheng Zhi's turn to look conflicted. He bared his teeth, but soon he laughed out loud: "These are not for me to decide. Let's focus on the exercises in the next few days."

Yang Sheng asked cautiously: "Uh... to what extent can we achieve this? Is there any need to keep it confidential?"
