"Give him! My grandson Ye Hao is definitely not a coward." Ye Batian forcefully issued an order to Shangguan Dapao.
"Alright, big brother, I hope you won't regret it!" Shangguan Dapao nodded. With Ye Batian saying this, what else could he do?
"No way! I need to call that rascal." Murong Lan firmly refused to let Ye Hao go to battle. After all, everyone in the military committee knew the United States had its eye on them, and Huaxia's naval power couldn't possibly compete against the Philippines casually.
"No need, I'll make the decisions in this house." Shangguan Dapao roared loudly, then connected a call to Shangguan Xiaopao, directly shouting, "Get me five thousand tons of explosives from the Second Artillery Corps and send them to Peng City for that boy Ye Hao. You have one day to gather them, right now, understand?"
Shangguan Dapao's words left Shangguan Xiaopao bewildered.
"Dad, what is this about?" Shangguan Xiaopao asked helplessly on the phone, thinking how could the Second Artillery Corps casually assemble thousands of tons of explosives? And giving them to a civilian like Ye Hao, what's he going to do with them?
"You little brat, others dare to fight the Philippines, do you dare? You're a military committee member, but you're nothing. You don't even have a trace of that boy's spirit." Shangguan Dapao shouted into the phone.
"Dad... What are you talking about?" Shangguan Xiaopao was stunned. Ye Hao using five thousand tons of explosives to fight the Philippines? Isn't this a joke?
"I'm saying Ye Hao wants five thousand tons of explosives to fight the Philippines. If you can't gather five thousand tons within a day and deliver them to Ye Hao, don't call me dad anymore." After roaring, Shangguan Dapao hung up the phone.
Shangguan Xiaopao sat dumbfounded at the Second Artillery Corps. Ye Hao wants to fight the Philippines, that boy wants to fight the Philippines? Is he sure it's not a joke?
Then he thought of the Philippines' arrogance and their recent communication to Huaxia, refusing to apologize, claiming their entry into their territory was intentional and deserved to be killed.
"That boy... I'm not as good as you!" After saying that, Shangguan Xiaopao immediately ordered people to gather five thousand tons of explosives, and then he called Air Force Commander Li Yuzhong.
"Comrade Li Yuzhong."
"Comrade Shangguan, what's the matter?"
"I'd like to ask you to help transport five thousand tons of explosives to Peng City."
"Oh? For what purpose?" Li Yuzhong asked puzzledly.
"Hehe, to sell to Ye Hao."
"Who is Ye Hao?"
"Recently, the Army and Navy have been massively arming, and the provider of these weapons is Ye Hao."
"Oh? It's that kid? Then you're selling five thousand tons..."
"I'll take the responsibility."
"Alright! I'll immediately dispatch military aircraft." Hearing this, Li Yuzhong readily sent military aircraft to assist Shangguan Xiaopao in transporting the massive amount of explosives.
Yet after He Zhen hung up the phone, he immediately called Navy Commander Qin Jiang.
"Comrade Qin Jiang."
"Hello, Comrade He Zhen."
"I'm very saddened by the Philippines' evil actions, but I must tell you, in ten days, don't deploy any naval forces, just wait and see."
"Impossible, how can my Navy be so looked down upon? Even if we can't wage war, I need to send warships to intimidate them."
"No, Comrade Qin Jiang, let me tell you something..." He Zhen mumbled a few words into the phone.
After a long while, Qin Jiang asked, "Really?"
"The truth will be clear in ten days. If he can research and develop such weapons, he must have his unique skills, we should trust him."
"Alright! Then I'll endure for ten days." Qin Jiang said and hung up, instructing the previously dispatched ships to turn back to port.
...
A day and a night passed. On Heaven-Filling Heroic Spirit Island, Ye Hao neither ate nor drank, urging people to speed up processing.
Those people, paid three hundred yuan a day, worked diligently, switching shifts day and night, producing tens of thousands of parts in a short time.
These strange parts revealed no recognizable patterns to others.
However, Ye Hao had Li Yi personally lead the team in crafting the submarine's hull.
Ye Hao required the hull to be 150 meters long, 30 meters wide in all directions, sharp at the front, and flat round at the rear.
The inside had an independent passageway, and regarding the items on the framework, Ye Hao didn't instruct them on specifics, so they could only watch.
Building this hull didn't take long because the G-colored materials were soft, making construction convenient. Within just a day, the hull's model was completed, and it would take another day to finish erecting the internal framework entirely.
Ye Hao was busy in Ding Haoyun's office, manufacturing chips alongside Ding Haoyun, Keystroke after keystroke landed at a speed that made Ding Haoyun's jaw drop.
Lu Dong, Xue Zhaolong, Lu Yunsong, and Zhuorong Town also brought large groups to join production. They didn't know why Ye Hao was in such a rush, only aware that Ye Hao hadn't slept for a day and a night.
"I really don't know what the boss is up to." Xue Zhaolong urged people to speed up even more, muttering to himself.
"Haha! If my guess is correct, these are Submarine No.1 devices held by Zhang Hua." Lu Dong's talent was exceptional, instantly recalling a bit from the glance he'd taken at Zhang Hua's data.
"What? A submarine?"
"Probably." The few murmured and speculated.
Ye Hao had been in Ding Haoyun's office for two days, during which he ordered people to collect the five thousand tons of explosives and place them on the beach.
Of course, there were guards on the beach. Otherwise, a single spark could turn the entire Lingding Ocean into a sea of fire.
Ye Hao wrote five hundred data panels in Ding Haoyun's office and stored them in a custom-made barrel.
This barrel was for storing explosives, and the eighth-generation system controlled all bombs, allowing them to detonate at any moment.
After completing this, Ye Hao instructed members to move the equipment to the submarine frame's edges, where he directed them to load everything into the hull's internal space.
Su Chenhong had been watching Ye Hao these past few days, increasingly bewildered by his actions. How did Ye Hao know so much? And how much advanced technology did he possess?
Ye Hao worked tirelessly for five days, the military's silence entirely enraging the citizens to the extreme, resulting in numerous violent incidents targeting public places.
He Zhen and Shangguan Xiaopao closely monitored the South Sea battle every day, yet the South Sea remained unusually calm.
At this time, the Philippines killed more than a dozen fishermen, making Huaxia's citizens furious to an unprecedented extent...
"The government is incompetent, the military has no courage. We demand regime change, protest." Banners like this appeared nationwide, and the number of demonstrators grew, even factory owners joined demonstrations.
The local government was vandalized in many places, nobody dared to report to work.
Despite the arrival of a large number of armed police, they couldn't effectively organize forces to hold back citizens from rioting.
No.1 appeared on the screen at this time, expressing his anger, but in return, Huaxia people only saw him as insignificant. (To be continued.
