Era: Starting from divorce from female college student

October 31, 1990, Yunlan City, near the Gulf of Aden, in the northeastern corner of the African continent.

This place used to be part of Somalia, but now it has become part of Yunlan City.

When George Herbert first set foot in this place, his gaze passed over the Secret Service agents and he saw a bustling scene in the distance.

"What a pleasant surprise! This place is truly full of wonders."

George Herbert took a deep breath, his heart growing heavier.

Although it was his first time here, he had visited many places and seen many sights over the past two days.

The entire Yunlan City is indeed extraordinary.

Starting from the central area of ​​Yunlan City, it radiates outwards to the financial district with the most high-rise buildings, the coastal area with the most beautiful urban beaches, and the ring expressway.

Ten years ago, these things didn't exist in the entire Yunlan City.

However, nowadays, even in the suburbs, there are two F1 racing circuits, as well as a large number of indoor basketball courts, outdoor football stadiums, and so on.

In addition to Yunlan City and CCTV, there are several other companies that are strong enough to be among the top 100 global companies but are not on the list.

The hidden strength of Yunlan City is astonishing.

Of course, none of these are very important, because the flowers, grasses, and vast forests in the distance are the most important.

"If I remember correctly, you now call this place the Dragon Cloud Kingdom, right?"

"Yes, Mr. Herbert."

"Your Dragon Cloud Kingdom's current land area should exceed one million square kilometers, right?"

"That's right, to be precise, it's an area of ​​1.08 million square kilometers."

"Oh, I wonder if I could know the forest coverage rate of your Dragon Cloud Kingdom?"

Last year's result should have been 72.5%.

Upon hearing this, George Herbert looked at Chen Guohua in surprise and said:
"Why is it still low?"

"Yes, Mr. Herbert, our Dragon Cloud Kingdom is implementing a plan to ensure we have sufficient arable land."

Chen Guohua's explanation did not satisfy George Herbert, but the latter also knew it was inappropriate to press the matter further.

The current arable land area in the entire Longyun Kingdom is indeed not large, but it will continue to expand in the future.

Forest cover is not necessarily better the higher it is, especially in equatorial regions.

As is well known, the Dragon Cloud Kingdom is located near the equator, where the annual sunshine hours are very long.

Despite the dramatic changes that have taken place throughout the entire Longyun Kingdom.

It used to be a desert and Gobi, but nowadays those environments simply don't exist.

It consists entirely of virgin forests, lakes, farmland, grasslands, cities, highways, and the like.

It's almost fair to say that not a single piece of land is wasted.

There is only one major city, and that is Yunlan City.

The others are satellite cities, which are very small cities, equivalent to county towns or townships in China.

Besides these, there are scattered villages throughout the entire Longyun Kingdom.

The locations of most villages have already been determined.

Villages located in border areas also do not need to worry about other issues.

Because Longyun Kingdom is separated from neighboring Ethiopia and Kenya by forest walls, it is unlikely to be discovered or otherwise discovered by those two countries.

In short, there is absolutely no need for ordinary people in the Dragon Cloud Kingdom to worry about this.

"That's great, your Dragon Cloud Kingdom is indeed very powerful."

George Herbert said sourly.

He still doesn't understand how Longyun Kingdom managed to do it.

With a land area of ​​1.08 million square kilometers, it is quite large.

The changes started in 1977, and even if we go back a few years, it's still less than twenty years.

It used to be a barren land, but now it is not only a livable country, but also a country with a very high happiness index.

"Mr. Chen, I'd like to ask, how did you manage to create such rural paths?"

“Um, Mr. Herbert, I don’t quite understand what you mean.”

"What I mean is, this country road, although it's not wide, has huge trees on both sides that block out the sun. As far as I know, your Longyun Kingdom didn't have such big trees seventeen or eighteen years ago, did it?"

This country road in front of us leads to Niudongping Village.

The path was very straight, with tall trees planted on both sides, their leaves quite large, blocking out the sun.

Therefore, even under the blazing sun, whether driving or walking on such a path, you won't feel scorched by the sun.

Therefore, George Herbert did not quite understand.

How did such a large tree manage to grow like this?
"I'm not entirely sure either; perhaps we should ask our plant experts."

Chen Guohua chuckled.

He genuinely didn't know, but even the university professors and experts in Yunlan City probably didn't know either.

Throughout the entire Longyun Kingdom, most rural paths are basically like this.

Many villagers have a considerable stretch of shaded road when they leave the village to work in the nearby fields.

None of this matters.

Conversely, in the vicinity of these villages, there are also large bamboo forests and economic forests, which are the true wealth of the local villages.

For example, a bamboo forest.

Once the season arrives, bamboo shoots from the bamboo forest become the best seasonal vegetable.

These bamboo shoots can even be processed and sold to snack processing plants.

Once processed, it becomes a very good snack.

This is a very complete industrial chain.

There must be a snack processing plant like this near the bamboo forest.

Yunlan City has several snack companies that package all these snacks and export them overseas.

With the help of multiple sales channels such as Wanjia Supermarket, all these snacks were sold.

This is what piqued George Herbert's curiosity.

Although this Dragon Cloud Kingdom seems quite ordinary, one can sense that it contains a great many opportunities.

And to this day, he still doesn't understand how those arsenals were hidden.
The Longyun Kingdom does not have the deep mountains and steep ridges where it is located.

But even these extensive roads, and most of the smaller paths, are blocked by these towering trees.

Therefore, satellites in the sky are impossible to see, and even taking pictures of them is useless.

Who knows if these arms factories are actually hidden inside these so-called villages?
After all, Sam has a notorious skunk factory that's hidden near what's supposedly a residential area.

Isn't it normal for others to follow suit?
People all over the world love to copy homework, especially Sam's homework.

After George Herbert had visited parts of Dragon Cloud Kingdom, it was already November 1st.

Today is the day of the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China.

Early in the morning, in the largest city square of Yunlan City, there is a street called Central Avenue, which stretches for one hundred kilometers.

In the center of the square where the central avenue is located, both sides of the road are already lined with troops.

The founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China is imminent, and the military parade is about to begin.

Although it wasn't a huge sensation, this military parade was clearly different from others. In any case, Gorbachev, George Herbert, and the others had all come to Yunlan City, the capital of the Dragon Cloud Kingdom.

Therefore, this founding ceremony was destined to be extraordinary.

The streets have long been cleaned and tidy.

The Black Cross soldiers lining both sides of the road remained silent.

Residents in the vicinity cannot approach the central avenue and can only stand outside.

Zhou Xiaoqing, his wife, and several of his brothers were watching the live TV broadcast at home with their children.

They didn't go to watch it in person because it was a bit far and there were too many people there.

They all held their breath as they watched the live broadcast on television.

This is the first time the Black Cross forces have truly appeared before everyone.

Although there weren't many people, everyone was in high spirits.

He truly deserves to be called an unparalleled soldier.

Although I haven't experienced the so-called five most hellish dungeons in the world.

However, the Black Cross is a well-known force in the global underworld.

While Zhou Xiaoqing and his group were watching the live broadcast, far away in Pretoria, the administrative capital of South Africa, General Freiburg was also watching the live broadcast of the founding ceremony of the People's Republic of China on CCTV in Yunlan City from a luxurious villa.

"Hmph, there are quite a lot of people."

General Freyburg had suffered several defeats with the Black Cross forces before, losing several thousand men and more than two hundred million dollars in gold.

In Southern Africa, internal conflicts are more often caused by gold, minerals, and other related issues.

General Freiburg, on the other hand, was a local warlord who owned a small stake in the Rand Central Gold Mine, making a living by siphoning off scrap gold.

As the auspicious hour arrived, the military parade began promptly at 8:30 a.m. local time in Yunlan City.

Zhao Mancang, Lü Yangui, Chen Guohua, Lin Dehong, Gu Zhenan, Zeng Zhaoshun, Shou Jiangang, and Lu Shengwen all appeared in front of the city gate.

This building is basically modeled after the Daming Palace of the Tang Dynasty, only much more magnificent and expansive.

Besides Daming Palace, there are also Epang Palace, Forbidden City, and other palaces located near the central avenue.

The Longyun Kingdom originated from China, but it was established overseas. Its official languages ​​are Cantonese and Mandarin, and its written language is primarily Chinese.

Therefore, there is nothing wrong with the presence of the Daming Palace, the Epang Palace, the Forbidden City, and other such structures in Yunlan City.

However, it seemed extremely strange to George Herbert, Gorbachev, and others.

One China is already giving them a huge headache.

Now, another kingdom, Dragon Cloud Kingdom, has emerged.

How strange.

Gorbachev turned his gaze to George Herbert, but the latter showed no change in expression.

The two were able to meet in such a place, but it was only to maintain a superficial facade.

The British Prime Minister and others, who were not far away, were watching Zhao Mancang, Lü Yangui and others, and their eyes would occasionally sweep over George Herbert and others.

However, everything was perfectly harmonious, and there was nothing amiss.

The formation of the Black Cross troops in front was practically a copy-paste job.

George Herbert and the others exchanged glances, but said nothing.

George Herbert, in particular, was very clear that Zhao Mancang and the others standing not far away were just people standing in front of the stage.

The financial backer or mastermind behind Longyun Kingdom has never appeared in the public eye.

It's important to know that George Herbert was actually unlikely to appear in Dragon Cloud Kingdom, but he did anyway.

This is enough to illustrate some points.

Therefore, Zhao Mancang and his group are not the key; the most important people are those hiding behind the scenes.

"Who on earth is it?"

Not only George Herbert couldn't understand it, but Gorbachev and his colleagues also couldn't understand it.

As other teams came into view, especially the group of heroic female soldiers, many people swallowed hard.

It wasn't greed, but fear.

For ordinary men like Zhou Xiaoqing, although they were also somewhat tempted, they instinctively felt that these female soldiers were not easy to bully.

The group of female soldiers passing by Daming Palace all looked energetic and spirited, which is also very valuable for breeding.

Therefore, for men, lust is always the top priority.

However, it's unclear whether it's due to the camera angle or some other reason.

This made the group of female soldiers look menacing.

General Freiburg, far away in southern Africa, looked at these female soldiers with even greater fear, his face filled with ruthlessness.

"Fuck, last time it was all because I glanced at these women, huh."

"Women are nothing but playthings; they should stay home and have children, not come out and embarrass themselves."

"Don't give me a chance, or else..."

The next moment, after the female soldiers' formation, came the robot formation, which immediately stunned General Freiburg.

Robot queue!!!
This isn't a human, it's a robot.

They are fictional creations from movies, TV shows, and novels; I never expected to see them in real life.

George Herbert and his group were equally dumbfounded.

They started with a bombshell; what is Long Yunguo trying to do?
terrible!

No armored vehicles? No artillery?

Why start with a royal flush?

Then came the weapons that no one could understand, followed by the drone swarm, and then the missile units.

Is this not the end?
The military parade wasn't very long to begin with. The missile force had already made an appearance, so everything else should have ended by now, right?
Destroy it!
These two words were all that was on George Herbert's mind right now.

The Dragon Cloud Kingdom has only just been established, yet it possesses so many unknown weapons.

Don't assume these weapons are just decorations; in fact, they are definitely very powerful and impressive equipment.

Even so, the Dragon Cloud Kingdom may have other hidden methods.

terrible!
General Freiburg was at a loss for words.

Ordinary people like Zhou Xiaoqing couldn't understand or comprehend the immense power of those unknown weapons and missile units.

But General Freyburg and his ilk were discerning men.

Then came the Rocket Force, which is absolutely the ace of ace.

Over at Tiananmen Square, this is called Dongfeng Express.

In the Dragon Cloud Kingdom, this is called a tornado.

That damned tornado—that name is really quite fitting.

General Freiburg, George Herbert, Gorbachev, and others were all dumbfounded, staring in disbelief.

Because the Rocket Force is not even the last national strategic weapon.

What could that be? (End of Chapter)
