123: Return to Eagle Sauce! Copy fiercely, next

Chapter 123: Returning to Eagleland! Copying relentlessly, is it the Navy's turn next?

Next time, will the demand be for Navy technology?

In response to this question, Zheng Lixing nodded without hesitation: "I think it should be."

"Currently, Da Xia's most severe shortcoming is indeed in Navy technology."

Unlike the Army, the gap between military equipment is not so large as to be insurmountable, and it can often be smoothed out with tactics.

And unlike the Air Force, Da Xia's research and development, including the J-20 and Y-20, are currently progressing very smoothly. Even the 'H-20' is in accelerated development, so there won't be much lacking in various aspects.

However, even if the current Navy builds more ships, it cannot solve the shortage of high-end technology.

No wonder Fu Hai came over to 'complain about poverty' just now. This is because Da Xia's Navy lacks too many technologies, and even the level of talent cultivation is far inferior to the Air Force.

They often face a strange predicament: the ships are ready to be launched tomorrow, but there aren't enough professional sailors.

"Actually, the Army also has a lot of equipment deficiencies," Zheng Lixing recalled something and added, "such as heavy transport helicopters and heavy armed helicopters, which are also currently most urgently needed."

Da Xia Army's lack of technology could be extensive if listed casually, but the most lacking technology is definitely in helicopters.

Especially for a heavy transport helicopter, that has been a 'long-cherished wish' in the hearts of the Da Xia Army for many years.

"I know." Zhang Yuli nodded.

"If there's an opportunity, I can express Da Xia's demands then."

If others didn't bring it up first, Da Xia would never proactively inquire or request a specific 'item' of technology.

Da Xia would take whatever the Changcheng Shouwang (Great Wall Watch) organization could provide and would never make any demands.

After all, making demands would destroy the trust and goodwill between both parties, and he wouldn't do something that self-destructive.

Unless others actively asked what technology Da Xia needed, only then would he list a few items.

On the other side.

In Lu Family Village, Northwest Province.

"Dad, Mom, don't see me off anymore." Lu Ze waved his hand, stopping them from moving forward: "We're already at the village entrance, you two should go back first."

"Send more letters home when you have time, and remember to come back early for Spring Festival," Lu's mom said with some sadness.

After all, a mother worries when her child travels a thousand li, let alone a journey of tens of thousands of li? And he was going to a completely unfamiliar country.

However, she wasn't as worried as when Lu Ze first went abroad to study; on one hand, she had already adapted to the feeling.

Secondly, there was Lucy, who had returned with her son.

Lucy was a local from Eagleland, and with the two of them able to rely on each other and look after each other there, her heart was at least much more at ease.

"Hurry up and go, and come home early when the time comes." Lu Jian Guo, the usually taciturn man, patted Lu Ze's shoulder.

"I understand, Mom and Dad."

Lu Ze nodded, holding Lucy's hand as they walked out of the village entrance.

His uncle's tractor was already waiting there, and at the village entrance, there was still that group of gossiping aunties, scanning with their eyes.

"You're taking your wife back to Eagleland so soon? Why don't you stay at home for a few more days?"

"Isn't summer vacation two months long? Why is the holiday in Eagleland so short?"

"Ze Zai, next time you come back, bring your parents a big, chubby boy; I guarantee they'll be overjoyed."

"You two are really a good match. Is this girl really a foreigner? She looks so much like a Da Xia person?"

Listening to these aunties' teasing looks and words, they were just short of asking him when he would hold the wedding banquet.

Lu Ze replied helplessly, one by one: "Thank you, aunties, I will definitely inform you all then."

Fortunately, he knew these people had no ill intentions; they were just bored staying at home, which is why they gathered there to gossip.

They boarded the village's 'VIP' level mode of transport, the tractor.

Listening to the 'putt-putt-putt' of the engine, accompanied by the slight bumps on the cement road, the vast scenery of the surrounding Loess Plateau accompanied the two.

Lucy took out some local specialties from her suitcase, offering a piece of dried beef: "Lu Ze, this is so delicious."

"You eat first." Lu Ze waved his hand.

There wasn't much of this dried beef; it probably wasn't enough for Lucy to eat.

He glanced at the information on the optical screen in his eye.

[Number of Copies: 1 time!]

[Achievement Points: 20300 points!]

'This copy count can't be used up,' Lu Ze sighed inwardly.

He had planned to make a copy here in Da Xia, but he simply couldn't find any high-tech items available for him to copy.

Or rather, it was impossible for him to come into contact with any real high technology.

If he were in Eagleland, Lu Ze could at least use Lucy's identity, or his authority as a D-level employee at the LLNL Laboratory, to access some high-tech items.

But here in Da Xia, it was completely different.

He was just an ordinary Da Xia citizen, and Lucy was even an Eagleland foreigner!

If these two went around inquiring about high-tech items, any random auntie would probably report them as 'spies.'

He wouldn't do anything that could easily expose his identity.

And air shows, Navy open days, etc., were even rarer here in Da Xia, and there was no need to deliberately copy anything right now.

'Another copy count will refresh soon,' Lu Ze thought to himself.

Today was Saturday, and in two more days, he would accumulate another one, giving him two copy counts then.

Next, what kind of things should he copy?

Still the Air Force?

He decisively rejected this idea: 'There are too many technologies in this area to copy, unless there's a chance to get close to something like the SR-91 'Aurora'…'

'Otherwise, there's no need to keep spending copy counts on this.'

Unless there was something like an F-22 or a B-2 Bomber, some 'rare item' that could be copied, then Lu Ze would be willing to sacrifice achievement points to copy it once.

As for other Air Force equipment, he wasn't too interested.

'Then next time, I'll copy Navy equipment?' Lu Ze muttered.

After all, how many achievement points a Navy destroyer could be worth was something he had been very curious about for a long time.

He had even planned to take advantage of a Navy open day to copy something, but his plan was interrupted by the sudden appearance of the B-2 Bomber, which prevented him from successfully copying it.

Thinking of this.

Lu Ze looked at Lucy next to him and asked, "Lucy, when is the next Navy Open Day in the Bay Area?"

"It seems to be next week, and they're even showcasing an Arleigh Burke-class destroyer."

"Next week? An Arleigh Burke-class destroyer?" A hint of surprise flashed in Lu Ze's eyes.

Target confirmed!! Time to copy relentlessly!

It's about time it was your Eagleland Navy's turn, isn't it?
