Reborn Before the Apocalypse: My Backing is the Nation

Chapter 23 War
Upon arriving at the test site, Zhang Yao saw many familiar figures.

The atmosphere at the scene was so heavy it was as thick as mercury.

Without time for pleasantries, the group immediately got to work.

The guard who had escorted Zhang Yao had already moved on to the next phase of the work.

"Dr. Sun Jia? There is a major emergency mission that requires your attention. My department has been ordered by higher authorities to come and pick you up."

The overall modification plan for the XS-7 particle accelerator will be completed in approximately four hours. At that time, you will be required to develop an upgrade plan for the power circuit modules based on this overall plan.

……

Jiang Yang stared at the screen with the words "Design Team" written on it, and heard Gu Changshan's voice in his ear: "The overall design plan is expected to be completed by 2 a.m.

It is expected that all the detailed work will be completed by 2 PM tomorrow, after which it will be distributed to the precision equipment manufacturing plant to begin production of the relevant equipment.

Is the factory ready?

"The overall factory assessment has been completed, and a total of 632 factories with corresponding production capabilities have been selected. They are currently in the emergency transformation and upgrading and material preparation stage."

We can guarantee that once all the necessary equipment for the complete upgrade and renovation plan is designed and transferred to the factory, production can begin immediately.

Jiang Yang nodded slightly.

……

Under the cover of night, a large truck is slowly driving on the highway.

The road is flat, visibility is good, and there are not many vehicles.

Sitting in the driver's seat, Li Guozhu watched another car speed past him on the left and disappear into the night. He muttered a complaint, "If it weren't for the strict enforcement against speeding by big trucks, would you have been able to overtake me?"

As the car passed over an uneven section of road, the heavy vehicle swayed and creaked.

A sense of unease arose in Li Guozhu's heart.

"I heard that this time they're hauling some kind of precision equipment, worth several million. I hope it doesn't break, or I won't be able to afford to pay for it even if I sell it."

A row of roadblocks could be vaguely seen ahead, gradually blocking the road and eventually leading to the service area ahead.

Why are there vehicle checks here?

His heart jumped, and he frantically racked his brain to recall if his car had violated any traffic rules.

Stopping at the service area, he noticed that this time the vehicle check seemed to involve not only security guards, but also some people in military uniforms.

"Li Guozhu?"

"It's me, it's me. Comrade, here is my driver's license and vehicle registration."

The guard in military uniform did not take the identification, but instead asked again, "A batch of equipment from Yaodong Precision Machinery Factory? Delivered to Guitong No. 7 Production Base?"

"Uh, yes, comrades..."

The soldier waved his hand, interrupting him: "We've requisitioned this shipment. Don't worry, we'll handle everything else."

Now, we need your cooperation in carrying out an urgent task: to get this shipment to this location within five hours.

Li Guozhu glanced at the map, his eyes widening suddenly: "Comrade, it's not that I don't want to cooperate with you, it's just that there's simply no time! Look at this distance, it's a full 680 kilometers, five hours? I'm driving a truck, not a plane!"

"Please rest assured, there will be police escorts throughout the journey, and all speed limits will be lifted for you. The only thing we need to consider is whether you have the corresponding driving skills. If you do not, we will send another driver."

But that would take up about half an hour, so we hope you can carry out this task if possible.” Li Guozhu’s heart began to race uncontrollably. He swallowed hard and tentatively asked, “Then my car…”

"After the mission is completed, we will compensate you with a brand new vehicle."

"No problem at all, I guarantee there won't be any problems!"

Li Guozhu slammed his hand on the steering wheel: "You don't know, I've always wanted to be a race car driver... Shall we go now?"

"set off!"

Three police cars, sirens blaring, drove up to the truck.

Li Guozhu slammed on the accelerator, unleashing a tremendous surge of power that caused the entire car to tremble slightly. His own blood seemed to boil along with the car's vibrations.

The speedometer began to climb rapidly. 70, 80, 100...

In the past, 100 was already the limit. But this time, he still stepped on the gas without hesitation, watching the number jump up to 150 before stopping.

The enormous truck, like a raging beast, rampaged wildly across the flat, wide highway.

Along the way, whether it was a truck or a car, no matter how superior their performance, they all obediently hid to the side under the sirens.

Watching one car after another being overtaken by him, Li Guozhu felt so exhilarated that he almost wanted to shout it out.

Four hours and forty minutes later, the car came to a steady stop in a heavily guarded compound.

After opening the driver's seat and getting out of the car, Li Guozhu felt his legs were a little weak, and his mind was a mixture of extreme excitement and extreme fatigue, making him slightly dazed.

"Comrade Li Guozhu, you have completed this driving mission excellently. On behalf of all the officers and soldiers of my unit, I would like to express my gratitude to you."

Please proceed to the lounge to rest. Eight hours later, if your physical condition permits, there will be further driving duties for you.

"Okay, hehe, okay."

Upon arriving at the entrance of a building, he saw a dozen or so men who looked like truck drivers rush out and excitedly charge toward the dozen or so large trucks parked nearby.

With the roar of their engines, these trucks somehow acquired the imposing presence of race cars.

"Comrade, may I ask, has war broken out?"

The guard remained silent for a moment, then slowly nodded: "Yes."

"Damn it, I'll kill those lowly folks!"

Li Guozhu roared, "Comrade, I can't sleep for eight hours, six hours is enough. You wait, I'll get up in six hours."

One truck after another sped here like lightning, then rushed out like ferocious beasts. Truckloads of high-purity silicon rods, circuit boards, special steel, precision cables, and other materials flooded into the production workshop of this precision equipment manufacturing plant.

Along the long production line, hundreds of engineers in protective suits are busy working with the machinery to modify and debug the equipment.

Time passed quietly, the night gradually faded, and the rising sun rose from below the horizon.

Although there was no sunlight in the underground base, Jiang Yang still woke up promptly at 7:30 in the morning.

A knock came at the door right on time: "Jiang Yang, I'm waiting for you in the restaurant."

Upon arriving at the restaurant, they saw that Zhou Yu had already placed a breakfast on the table.

She was still wearing business attire, but the specific cut and style were completely different from yesterday, exuding a pure, refined, and sexy charm.
