(Subscribe for Double Update) In Shen Zhou, it had been three days since the end of the Battle of Shanghai. Residents gradually returned to the city, restoring the normal order of life. Beyond the Steel Great Wall, soldiers continued to patrol daily, clearing out the remaining Mutant Creatures and Zerg. The wounded were treated, but unfortunately, the bodies of those who had sacrificed themselves couldn’t be recovered, as they died in the mouths of the Zerg, leaving no remains! People awoke from the joy of victory and began to comprehend the brutality of war. In the Xuanwu conference hall, the Xuanwu Executive Officers recalled the events of that day, and they still shuddered with fear. “In the Battle of Shanghai, we lost nearly ten thousand brave men!” Cui Weimin lamented, “It was so brutal!” “And that’s because we had the Steel Great Wall and the Electromagnetic Gun,” He Hongwei noted, “In Sakura and Korea, the death toll defending against the Zerg exceeded a hundred thousand. Moreover, after the Zerg entered the inland, incidents of civilian casualties happened daily, plunging the entire society into panic and chaos.” “The construction of the Steel Great Wall must be accelerated immediately until the entire national coastline is protected!” Kong Qing insisted. “Our troubles have not lessened,” Song Jinhong analyzed, “We extracted Zerg biological material from the battlefield for analysis, and these Zerg still had significant evolutionary potential.” “We suspect there are more advanced Zerg in the nest.” “Yes,” Qin Peng nodded, “This wave of attacking Zerg came from the Sakura Sea. The Zerg from the Mariana Trench have yet to act.” “We judge that this was merely a test of our strength by the Zerg while they cultivate land-based troops. Soon, more Zerg will launch a full assault! By then, it won’t be just one or two locations or a few cities under attack but the entire country and the world!” “According to the ocean surface area of the world,” He Xingzhou said, “there are conservatively estimated to be over a hundred Zerg nests worldwide!” “A hundred!” Lv Mei exclaimed in shock upon hearing the number, “One Zerg nest can attack three locations in batches, a hundred nests... that could truly destroy Blue Star!” “Yes,” He Xingzhou nodded, “So this is a race against time, to see if our science and technology development speed or the evolutionary speed of the Zerg is faster!” “Therefore, I propose that we advance to the second phase of the Xuanwu Plan simultaneously!” The first phase of the Xuanwu Plan mainly involved national resource reserves, construction of shelters, wireless power transmission networks, magnetic roads, super-high-speed trains, satellite networks, and parts of the Steel Great Wall. Most of these have been implemented, and the Steel Great Wall can advance smoothly, but the second phase must begin ahead of schedule. “Let’s now discuss the contents of the second phase of the Xuanwu Plan!” The Xuanwu Executive Officers officially began the discussion. “Firstly and foremost!” Qin Peng began, “We must consolidate our coastal defense line, including Yizhou!” “Indeed!” He Hongwei said, “This time, the Zerg only attacked Shanghai, which we managed to hold. Attacking other locations, we also have the Steel Great Wall, but Yizhou is a critical site and must not be left to the Zerg’s fury!” “To build the underwater tunnel of the Steel Great Wall, there must be a sufficient fleet to protect it,” He Xingzhou stated, “In this battle, our naval strength was far from enough against the Zerg.” “Therefore, developing ships, submersibles, and underwater weapons will be included in the second phase.” “We also need to expand our military, as defending along the Steel Great Wall requires many soldiers!” Xuanwu recorded the meeting’s content one by one, and once all the proposals were approved, they were added to the plan. Cui Weimin said, “Establish a global defense organization. Although we currently exchange intelligence through the Global Defense Organization, it’s not enough. We must have a more binding and effective human civilization organization!” “And it must be led by us!” he emphasized, “Other places are in turmoil; we cannot rely on them.” Everyone nodded in agreement. “We also need to build high-tech land and air corps to prevent unexpected events. Although we temporarily stopped the oceanic Zerg invasion, those Mutant Creatures will eventually find ways to invade the skies and land. We must also defend our other borders!” Kong Qing said. “Develop the next generation of fighter jets and build armored and robot corps!” He Xingzhou said, “There are many improvements that can be made to the mechanical exoskeleton after this battle. If we can conquer safe nuclear battery technology, we’ll have a chance to build more advanced armor and robots!” The durability of the mechanical exoskeleton was not strong. No matter how advanced, metal-air batteries could not maintain long-term combat operations, nor could they sustain energy weapons. The reason they didn’t encounter endurance problems in this battle was entirely because of their proximity to the Steel Great Wall, where wireless power networks covered everything, allowing for recharging anytime. If it were elsewhere, it wouldn’t be so convenient, so more advanced nuclear batteries were necessary. “Continue to advance in biological research,” Song Jinhong said, which was undeniable. “In terms of logistics support,” Lv Mei suggested, “I propose that the nation enter a state of full preparedness, with civilian factories immediately modifying production lines to produce military equipment, ships, aircraft, mechanical exoskeletons, robots, and more.” “Agreed, our consumption in this battle was not small.” Everyone discussed for several days, finally determining several major tasks for the second phase.
