158: Chapter 158 The Great Qin Supercomputing Center, Chancellor Lü Buwei

Carbon ore total production capacity is 1350 units/day.

However, after the troops were expanded and upgraded, one supply replenishment for the troops consumes 1200 units.

Because the Expeditionary Force moves and fights for long periods, fuel replenishment is basically once a day.

The city defense forces consume less fuel, and if there is no Zerg siege, consumption will decrease.

Based on a siege frequency of twice a week, Su Yang estimates the current territory's average daily consumption should be around 1000 units.

However, this is just a rough estimate; if any emergencies occur, it will cause the results to deviate significantly.

Now, the production and consumption of various resources within the territory are too complex. Relying on Su Yang himself, it is impossible to accurately calculate these production and consumption relationships; he can only make rough estimates.

Although this can ensure that things are generally normal and no major resource shortages will occur,

every time he makes a calculation, it consumes a lot of Su Yang's energy, and he cannot perform real-time calculations.

Now, many consumption and resource production rates are changing in real-time, so real-time calculation is very important.

For example, iron and steel are both necessary resources; two units of iron convert into one unit of steel.

Converting too little will lead to insufficient steel production, while converting too much may result in insufficient iron raw materials.

The demand for steel and iron within the territory changes in real-time, and there is no fixed ratio, which requires the commander to constantly adjust the conversion rate.

The same goes for fuel resources; if too little is invested in the thermal power plant, electricity is insufficient; if too much is invested, soldier supplies are insufficient.

These all require real-time ratio adjustments, which are difficult to complete manually.

Furthermore, once an emergency causes a specific demand to increase, the relationships between various resources will instantly become chaotic, leading to a series of problems.

As the variety of resources in the territory increases in the future, the difficulty of manually calculating territory consumption will become greater and greater.

The inability to monitor data in real-time will not only reduce the territory's resource risk resistance but also make Su Yang feel a lack of control over the situation.

Perhaps the method of relying on manual calculation is already outdated?

Can the Artificial Intelligence brought by the Level 5 Main Base solve this problem?

With these thoughts flashing through his mind, Su Yang directly opened the Thousand Mechanism Tower panel.

After the three electrical research items were completed today, Su Yang dragged the three brothers—the Crossbowman, the Skyfire Guard, and the Fire Dragon Guard—into the Thousand Mechanism Tower.

This morning, General Li Xin led the team to win another hard battle in the Shadow Zone, destroying a fourth-generation Zerg nest.

Therefore, Su Yang now holds a Legendary-grade Heart of the Hive, which can shorten the research and development time by a full five days.

Originally, he wanted to wait for a subsequent emergency to use it, but now seems to be a relatively important moment.

Su Yang has already ordered General Li Xin to return to the territory; after the troops rest in the territory tonight, they will march toward the Wailing Mountains tomorrow.

Before then, these three upgrades should all be completed, and at the very least, ensure the Skyfire Guard and Fire Dragon Guard complete their upgrades.

In addition, because of the addition of the power System, the calculation volume for territory resources has further increased, and Su Yang needs other forces to assist in controlling the overall situation.

Use it early, enjoy it early!

Su Yang took out the Heart of the Hive and used splitting technology to divide it into portions for two days and three days.

He first invested the two-day portion to complete the research on the Crossbowman's Electromagnetic Propulsion and the Skyfire Guard's Electromagnetic Cannon technology.

Afterward, he selected Computer Science and Artificial Intelligence, then invested the three-day portion, completing the instant upgrade.

A total of five technologies, four of which were completed instantly, and the remaining one only had a dozen hours left.

This is the charm of Legendary-grade items.

Supercomputing Center, Chancellor Lü Intelligent Brain?

Su Yang's eyes flickered; an Artificial Intelligence based on Chancellor Lü Buwei?

Lü Buwei was a merchant by origin who became a Chancellor in the Qin Dynasty.

He not only left behind various legendary deeds but also authored the Lüshi Chunqiu.

More importantly, the "Wu Le Gong Ming" policy came from Lü Buwei's hand.

It can be said that the strength of the Qin Dynasty's military industry could not be separated from Lü Buwei's monitoring.

With such Artificial Intelligence assistance, wouldn't he be able to become a hands-off manager?

Su Yang clicked on the panel and placed the new building, Great Qin Supercomputing Center, in the lord's area.

The blueprint was placed, and soon a new building, which was also the most sci-fi building in the territory, was assembled.

The Great Qin Supercomputing Center is a supercomputer with silver-white steel combined with pale blue engravings.

The cylindrical base constantly narrows upwards, and at the very top is a suspended translucent sphere.

It covers an area of over 20 square meters and is over 6 meters high.

It is hard to imagine that this is actually the size of a computer.

As soon as the Supercomputing Center was placed, the lights of the numerous mining machines in the territory went out.

After Su Yang increased the fuel input to the thermal power plant, the lights of the mining machines lit up one after another and resumed operation.

Such massive power consumption?

How powerful must such a computer's computing power be!

Su Yang clicked on the panel and entered the Artificial Intelligence page.

A series of mechanical sounds immediately appeared in his mind, and at the same time, corresponding subtitles appeared on the panel.

[Your Majesty, I am Chancellor 001, the first generation Great Qin industrial supercomputing Artificial Intelligence]
