459: Denjin-1

Long Yuan's words caused Zhu Nan to perk up!

The Sinkhole Base had been established for several months; it was finally time to show its power!

"Young Lord, is just one convoy too few?" Zhu Nan asked suspiciously.

Long Yuan smiled slightly and said, "Troops should be chosen for quality, not quantity. Our convoys are both research teams and combat teams. They need to collect data in battlefield environments and complete their research projects. This war is the perfect opportunity for them!"

Zhu Nan suddenly understood, but still asked, "Since they are research teams, do they need special combat teams for protection?"

"No need! Rest assured, with them there, those small cities will not be lost! In this battle, I want the Nanyue Base to show its morale and display its prestige!" Long Yuan said confidently.

Zhu Nan stood up straight upon hearing this and said excitedly, "This old servant knew that with the Young Lord here, those Sea Tribe exotic beasts wouldn't be able to turn the tide!"

Long Yuan waved his hand and said, "Repelling the sea beasts will not happen overnight. Now I need more detailed information on the third-line base cities and the surrounding areas to see what other places need special attention!"

"Yes! This old servant will have every city submit their data immediately!" Zhu Nan hurried off to the communications squad to assign the task.

Long Yuan looked at the map carefully. It was copied from the Heavenly Eye data and was undoubtedly the most detailed map of the Nanyue Base currently available.

At this moment, he noticed an open area between the eight coastal third-level base cities. This was the estuary of the Nanyue River. Over time, erosion had formed a delta near the estuary. The land there was extremely fertile, attracting a large population for development, and it was one of the most prosperous coastal regions. However, with the arrival of the Sea Tribe, it was highly likely to become the primary landing spot for them!

Indeed, the area at the river's estuary naturally forms a confluence of river and sea. This sea area contains land nutrients brought by the river, as well as sedimentary Materials churned up from the seabed by surging waves. Therefore, a large number of Sea Tribe creatures forage here. It is also the best hunting ground for humans to hunt seafood and for seabirds to prey on the Sea Tribe. One of the most famous fishing grounds on the southeast coast is located here, known as the "Zhoushan Fishing Ground."

According to reports submitted by the two adjacent small cities, the Zhoushan Fishing Ground has now been abandoned. The fishermen and hunting teams have already retreated into the cities, and large swaths of crops in the delta region have also been abandoned. Except for some that could be harvested early, the rest will likely be destroyed in this impending war!

"This is both the best Breakthrough point for the Sea Tribe and a good battlefield for the Human Race to counterattack. It seems I need to make some careful arrangements..." Long Yuan already had an idea in mind.

Just then, Zhu Nan walked over quickly and reported, "Young Lord, the detailed data from each city is being prepared and will be sent within an hour!"

"Good! An hour from now, hold a video conference with the city lords here. The city lords of all secondary bases and third-level bases must attend!" Long Yuan said.

"Yes! Young Lord!" Zhu Nan hurried off to arrange the task.

Long Yuan pondered for a moment and dialed Qian Xiaosen's dedicated number...

"Young Lord! What are your orders?" Qian Xiaosen's voice came through.

"Organize nine research convoys. One will go to Linhai City, and the other eight will go to the eight coastal third-level base cities of the Nanyue Base. Your duty is not only to conduct research activities, but also to act as temporary commanders in those eight third-level base cities, responsible for the war operations to resist the Sea Tribe invasion!" Long Yuan said slowly.

Upon hearing this, Qian Xiaosen became excited and said loudly, "No problem! Our Soul Army was just worrying about not having a place to show their skills!"

"No! The Soul Army's methods cannot be used in public. This time, you are only allowed to use high-tech means to exterminate the exotic beasts!" Long Yuan said.

"Only use high-tech means? No problem. Our 'Electric God No. 1' battery has just passed inspection. With it, we won't have to worry about energy supply for all our high-tech weapons anymore!" Qian Xiaosen said confidently.

"Very good! How long can the Electric God No. 1 battery power our Low Grade mechas?" Long Yuan asked.

"One unit can last for three days! Supporting it in a combat state for one day is no problem! And the replacement time only takes five seconds!" Qian Xiaosen replied.

"Alright! What is the current production capacity?"

"Operating at full capacity, we can produce 50 batteries a day! However, there is a problem with the raw material supply. With the current raw material inventory in the warehouse, we can only meet one month's production! The key is that iridium metal is too rare, and our stock is severely insufficient!" Qian Xiaosen said.

"I understand! Having 1500 batteries will be more than enough to handle this war. Next, we will investigate where there are iridium Ores!"

"Alright! By the way, can we equip each convoy with five hundred people?" Qian Xiaosen asked.

"Yes, let's use a staffing of five hundred people per convoy!"

"Received!"

The two finished their call, and a relaxed expression appeared on Long Yuan's face. The successful development of the Electric God No. 1 battery was enough to change the outcome of this war!

Judging from the various parameters it exhibited, the energy density it provided far exceeded that of ordinary Spirit Stones. Note that this refers to the Spirit Stones of the Cultivation World. Spirit Stones have already been produced in the Heavenly Dao Space, and Long Yuan discovered that even the energy density of Medium Grade Spirit Stones could not compare to the Electric God No. 1. Only those few High-Grade Spirit Stones were more powerful than the Electric God No. 1, but this already proved the powerful energy reserve of the Electric God No. 1.

It is estimated that the Cultivators of the Cultivation World would find it hard to believe that the mortal world could produce a product of this level. It was these people, who were like ants in their eyes, who used mortal Materials to create a battery that approached High-Grade Spirit Stones. This was simply a miracle!

The Electric God No. 1 battery not only has high energy density, but it also passed extreme tests such as water immersion, fire, impact, electric shock, cold, high temperature, and high pressure, proving that its safety is equally strong.

If such an epoch-making battery were to appear on Earth, it would directly crush a host of battery companies into the ground...

Now, each battery can drive a mecha to fight for a day, and it provides power output above the Martial Commander level. Just thinking about that scene makes one extremely excited...

Of course, after the base's convoys use this type of battery, they will also have a transformative performance. Not only will their speed increase, but they will also be more flexible, and they will be able to support the continuous use of various technological equipment inside the vehicles. This is also an important guarantee for this war.

"Young Lord, when can our convoys set off?" Zhu Nan asked in a low voice.

"No rush. The convoys are very fast, and when they encounter bad roads, they can even fly over them. It will only take a short half-hour for them to enter into battle!" Long Yuan took a sip of tea and said calmly.

"They can even fly?!" Zhu Nan's pupils shrank upon hearing this. He realized that he seemed to have some misunderstanding of the word "convoy." If it was a convoy that could fly, could it still be called by the same name as a traditional convoy?
