Great Power Technology

A week later, Xu Lei followed the technical assistance team to Punjab. Just before getting off the plane, she finally understood the current complex structure of the area.

First of all, this place was originally under the jurisdiction of Yindu, but after the last Yinba conflict, this vast province has become the actual occupied area of ​​​​Bayang. Due to the retreat of the Chou Kingdom, it is still under the jurisdiction of the Bayang military until now. under the control.

At the same time, out of stability considerations, the people here are still under the official jurisdiction of Yindu. Most administrative agencies have restored their functionality, and basic administrative functions are controlled by the Yindu official.

However, such administrative functions are not complete. The Bayang military’s penetration of its institutions involves almost all key departments. Every decree issued must actually be reviewed by Bayang.

Taken together, this is a modern economic sharing zone - or a colonial zone.

And now, a third party force has been introduced into this area.

According to the opinions of other colleagues on the plane, they probably want to go to someone else's territory and become superiors for a while.

"So, according to my understanding, what we have to do is actually not difficult, which is to build an experimental field here in Yindu based on the equipment and seedlings sent from China, and then let the people of Yindu imitate it?"

Xu Lei looked thoughtfully at the briefing on her phone and asked the man next to her.

"That's the case in theory, but the actual situation may be more complicated. This area was a major war zone before, known as 'no man's land'. The entire province has been destroyed, so we need to develop an acre of experimental field , the pressure faced is much greater than in normal areas.”

This man's name was Bo He, and he was Xu Lei's senior brother in school. This time, by chance, both of them chose to go to Yindu, and they happened to meet on the same special plane.

"How specific? What are the main problems?"

"That's a lot. Insufficient facilities, blocked roads, conflicts of local cultural attributes, sporadic riots, and most importantly, for girls, the place in the underworld is hell."

"But you don't have to worry too much. Basically all the men in Punjab have been wiped out. Coupled with the military control implemented by Ba Yang, the main working population in this area comes from Ba Yang. Compared with those in Yindu, , it’s not a big problem.”

"However, we will still try our best to avoid letting you participate in external work. You should also pay attention to yourself and do not leave the camp unless necessary. If you want to leave the camp, remember to follow the safety guidelines and do not act without authorization."

"I know, I know, I'm not stupid."

Xu Lei chuckled and continued to ask:

"Brother, do you really want to build water-saving agriculture for them this time?"

Hearing Xu Lei's words, Bo He shook his head slightly and replied:

"It's good that you know this kind of thing well. Many times, we need a reasonable reason for doing something. The matter itself cannot be discussed on the table, but once there is a reason, everything makes sense. "

"Judging from the current situation, the food problem is still the top priority. The Tongtian River project can solve part of the problem, but it is absolutely impossible for us to be alone in the subsequent crisis. Therefore, we also have to cover the vast plains on the Yindu side. Take advantage of it.”

"But we can't rely on them and we have to do it on our own. Okay, let's not talk about this anymore. Let's do our own thing well, and it will be worthy of the country."

Xu Lei nodded. At this time, the plane had landed at the airport. She followed Bo He's footsteps and walked out of the cabin. Then she was surprised to find that the airport, which was obviously temporarily restored, was already full of people of all sizes that she knew. , an unknown aircraft.

The civil aviation C969, the military Y-20-2, and the J-20H, which she had only seen in videos, often appeared with aircraft carriers.

At this moment, she became more and more clearly aware of the hidden meaning in Bo He's words.

A technology exchange is far more than just the technology itself. Perhaps from today, from the moment they land, the way this country, and even the entire world, operates will slowly change.

A change from part to whole.

Xu Lei shook her head, dispelling the messy thoughts in her mind, and got into the special car with Bo He. After more than two hours of trekking, the two finally arrived at the base next to the only remaining wheat field.

After a series of resettlement work, Xu Lei and her team, led by several soldiers, began to visit the base and familiarize themselves with the environment. She noticed that there were many ruins left from the battle in the base, including one that had not yet been demolished. The charred houses are particularly noticeable.

"Why is this house not demolished when other houses are demolished?"

Xu Lei asked curiously.

The cadre who was the guide on the side heard her question, turned around and answered:

"This house originally belonged to a farmer named Rekesh. During the previous food crisis, he, his daughter, and his wife were killed due to riots. His daughter and wife were burned alive in the cellar."

“Yindu officials originally planned to demolish this house, but after Bayang took over, they believed that it was irrefutable evidence of Yindu officials’ inaction and disregard for people’s livelihood, so they preserved it.”

"They plan to build a museum here later - it's a show, but we respect their decision, after all, they are the real managers."

Xu Lei turned her eyes to the small courtyard, took a few steps forward with some hesitation, and asked:

"Can I go in and have a look?"

The guide shook his head and replied:

"It's best not. To tell you the truth, there are still two corpses buried in the cellar. Before we came, the local villagers said this place was haunted."

"Why not get rid of it?"

Xu Lei asked in surprise.

"This is not our business. Anyway, sometimes, Ba Yang's brain circuit is as hard to guess as the Yindu people. But don't worry, it's all rumors about being haunted. Most of them are residents living here. They have ghosts in their hearts. .”

"Why do you say that?"

A somewhat confused look appeared on Xu Lei's face.

The guide's lips curved up with a trace of ridicule, and then he replied:

"Think about it, who lit the fire that burned down this house?"

Xu Lei froze on the spot for a moment, and after a long silence, she turned and left.

The expressions on other people's faces were different. At this moment, they all felt the impact of a "foreign culture".

They are too far away from a real famine. In their own country, the most serious food shortage results in nothing more than an increase in the price of non-staple food, while the price of staple food to ensure survival can almost remain unchanged for ten thousand years, especially Rice is the most widely consumed, and even international capital has completely given up on operating this category.

But today, they really saw how terrible human nature can be under famine.

Thinking of this, they couldn't help but think about something further.

If the adjacent dimension crisis really happens, if the Tongtian River project fails, what kind of ending will be waiting for mankind?

The Internet is now filled with all kinds of information related to the adjacent dimension crisis. They have also seen many solutions to the adjacent dimension crisis that are completely different from China's, such as the Pastoral Organization that caused trouble before, such as Recently someone has proposed a "civilized communication" plan, such as the "antimatter deterrence" plan proposed by a certain physicist.

These plans all seem reasonable, but without exception, they are all gorgeous pavilions built in the sky.

If it cannot solve the food shortage caused by the neighboring dimension crisis, everything is empty talk.

By then, many people will die.

A chill ran down everyone's backs because they realized an important issue:

Even ordinary people like me can think of things, but leaders at the top really can't think of it?

Is it that they can't think of it, or they don't want to think about it?

In other words, in the eyes of those Westerners, have ordinary people like themselves been given up from the moment the adjacent dimension crisis was confirmed?

The group of people gradually moved away from the small courtyard. Xu Lei looked back and saw that behind the small courtyard, various large machines were gathering along the road towards the core area of ​​the base, where they would complete the final task. After maintenance, he will start running on this vast plain.

The smoke from the diesel engine, the dust crushed by the tracks, and the claws and claws of the machinery were all like extremely hard symbols inserted into the cloudless sky, crushing the original rules of this land.

Perhaps soon, this place will become a land similar to her hometown, and this is just the first step of transformation.
