After the state funeral, Li Lan returned to the base, and after a simple dinner, he went to the console alone.

Three days after the end of the war, all the attrition statistics of the various units have been submitted, and the stocks of munitions have been counted.

When he turned on the computer on the console, Li Lan saw a long and long list, from the most basic bullets to missiles, and the comparison of various consumption and original inventory instantly made Li Lan feel a deep sense of powerlessness.

In two years, Li Lan had stored more than one billion rounds of various bullets, and by the end of the war, there were less than 400 million rounds of bullets left.

In other words, in this war, the average soldier consumed more than 5,000 rounds of bullets. Among them, the most depleted light and heavy machine gun bullets, 7.62 mm general-purpose machine gun bullets, 12.7 mm heavy machine gun bullets, and 20 mm machine gun bullets on armored vehicles.

There are also some bullets that are lost after being destroyed with vehicles or helicopters, but 600 million rounds of ammunition, this is not a small number, if the weight of 600 million rounds of ammunition of various signals has exceeded 20,000 tons, let the An-225 to transport, with its 250 tons of cabin load, it also takes 80 Antonov-225 to pull it at one time.

But so much ammunition is still almost consumed, and the largest consumption is the 7.62 mm general-purpose bullet, which is more than the 5.56 mm consumption of rifle bullets in the soldier's hand. This is mainly due to the terrifying consumption of the six-barreled Gatling, which is gone in a minute, and if the barrel is quickly cooled, the amount of ammunition consumed is even more terrifying.

The battle for a city street came down under the consumption of armored vehicles and Humvee cannons and machine guns. It's terrifying.

Fortunately, the most expensive bullets. is the cheapest. Of course, this cheapness is also relatively speaking. A box of 200 rounds of ammunition, the price is five base funds, not counting the cost of those large-caliber machine guns and machine guns, just with the current standard of 5.56 mm bullets of the Red Police Corps, the consumption of 600 million rounds of ammunition is an extremely terrifying number, the entire 15 million base funds, is already equal to the cost of a fast combat support ship, if you also count the difference in the price of other bullets of various calibers, then based on the consumption of bullets alone. It's already possible to exchange it for an Aegis ship.

Two years of stockpiles, now forty percent remains, and the war has only been going on for seven and a half days. This shows how fierce the intensity of the war is.

Next time, it will take a lot of time to make up for all the 600 million bullets. Fortunately, the production rate of bullets is very fast, tens of millions of bullets a day is not a problem, and it is enough to produce them immediately to support a medium-intensity war.

The wear and tear of firearms is not very great. As for the loss of shells and missiles, it is a very distressing figure. It is said that the war is money, the coalition army consumes a huge amount, and Li Lan is not a peace that he picked up for nothing.

From a 25mm cannon to a medium-range ballistic missile. Two years of inventory bottomed out all at once. Although compared to bullets, the amount consumed is not very large. But I can't bear the high price.

All missiles are started with two thousand base funds, whether it is a shotgun long-range artillery rocket system. Or the various missiles on fighter planes, or missiles on warships. It's all piled up with base funds.

The cost of a supersonic cruise missile is 20,000 base funds, the same as that of a medium-range ballistic missile. The cheapest close-range combat missile is 6,000 base funds, and individual anti-tank missiles also need 4,000 base funds. The cost of anti-ship missiles and air-to-air range missiles is more than 10,000 base funds.

Since the beginning of this war, tens of thousands of missiles and artillery shells of all kinds have been lost, and the preparations and storage of the past two years have now been basically exhausted. At present, in addition to the artillery shells and missiles in the troops, there are no 100 truckloads of stock in the warehouse, and we can only continue to maintain it by relying on non-stop high-intensity production.

Like the tactics of the coalition forces, the Red Guard Corps also pursued the principle of preferring to consume more shells than to fight for the lives of its soldiers. This is also for what, the war has only been seven and a half days, but a large amount of inventory has been consumed.

The consumption of tanks, warplanes, armored vehicles and other weapons is about the same as the death rate of soldiers, and on the battlefield, both sides have lost a large amount of advanced weapons and equipment.

Although there were no large-scale tank duels, in street battles, the main battle tanks of the two sides often met, and the duel between the Apocalypse tank and the U.S. M1A2 was also staged from time to time. Under the competition of electronic equipment and technology, the advantages that the tanks of the two sides were able to play did not appear to be one-sided. The battle losses reached almost a one-to-one ratio, and the tanks and combat vehicles of both sides were more lost under the blows of individual anti-tank weapons.

Both sides prefer to strike each other with asymmetrical means rather than tanks in close combat. Neither the Apocalypse Tank nor the M1A2 can withstand the empowerment attacks of the opponent's endless anti-tank weapons, and once it reaches the weak position of the roof, it is easy for the tank to lose the ability to move and fight, and the result is that it is slowly destroyed.

In this regard, both sides are standing at the same starting point. No one took advantage.

Judging from the weapons losses of the First Heavy Division, the division has a total of 10 heavy tank battalions with 320 tanks, and the 10 infantry battalions also have 330 multifunctional infantry fighting vehicles or multifunctional tracked vehicles. The two combat helicopter battalions of the heavy division were able to maintain the combat effectiveness of two companies after the war, which would be considered very good.

The artillery command of the heavy division was also not comfortable, with three battalions of 155-mm self-propelled howitzers, less than fifteen guns remaining, and two battalions of shotgun long-range rocket artillery, of which only four remained.

The combat effectiveness has directly dropped by half, although the enemy is not comfortable, and the losses will not be less than that of the Red Police Corps, but for Li Lan, the end of a war means that the strength in his hands has dropped by nearly half.

If he is asked to face this war again, he will not have much capital to continue fighting.

War is what it is, and if there is no bloodshed and losses in a war, it is not called a war. Not to mention. Today's war is the result of a defeat that can be called a defeat by either side.

"Assistant. Based on this data, calculate the full extent of the consumption of weapons? "Dense with all kinds of data. Li Lan also had a headache after watching too much.

In less than three seconds, the assistant gave a detailed information: "According to the statistics of all the battle damage reports, in this war, our army consumed a total of about 600 million rounds of bullets, and the total cost of base funds was 39 million, which is equivalent to about 10 billion US dollars when converted into real currency." Eighty thousand rounds of various artillery shells were consumed, worth 12 million base funds. The cost of converting it into real money is about $1.5 billion. Twelve thousand missiles of various models were consumed. The total cost of the base is 120 million dollars, which is about 15 billion US dollars in real money. The number of lost fighters was 148, and the total cost was 80 million base funds, which is about 6 billion US dollars in real money. The loss of 380 main battle tanks totaled 60 million base funds, which is about 2 billion US dollars in real money. Loss of armored vehicles ......"

The assistant's voice was neither fast nor slow, and as it answered, right in the middle of the computer screen, it introduced the numbers to Li Lan. Lined out one by one, especially at the back of the most lusk, there are two rows of final statistics in bright red: the total number of lost funds - 400, 000, 000 base funds.

Converted into the value of real money, the total loss - 65, 000, 000, 000 dollars.

"This money is burning fast!" See a large string of zeros on the total. Li Lan could only pat her head and moan weakly.

The seven-and-a-half-day war cost $65 billion. And that's not even counting the soldiers' pensions and post-war reconstruction, otherwise another $20 billion would be about the same. If you count the fact that all commerce and industry came to a standstill because of the war. Then the economic loss is even greater.

At present, according to the economic performance of the three major cities of Bagua City and Bossaso and Erigabo, Somalia is generating tens of billions of dollars in revenue every year. Not a problem at all. After all, ports and industry, especially oil, 800,000 barrels of crude oil per day, can bring very good income.

Of course, the losses of Somalia are not small, and the losses of the coalition forces will only be greater. The casualties of soldiers and the consumption of weapons and equipment, these coalition forces naturally did not take advantage, and the economic impact on the United States, this is the biggest loss of the coalition forces.

The Somali economy has just begun, and even if it starts from scratch, it will only take an extra year or two, but the economies of the four coalition countries are already developed countries, and once they are severely hit, it will not be so easy to recover. It's definitely slower than Somalia starting anew.

Thinking of the current losses of both sides and the impact on the economy in the future, Li Lan feels good about herself.

However, now he is going to start busy again, the ammunition stocks must continue to be perfected, the establishment of the troops must be gradually restored, the establishment of the newly established Second Heavy Division must be suspended, and the soldiers recruited and the weapons and equipment produced in the next stage will first meet the supplementary needs of the troops.

Click on the console, open the chariot item, turn to the tank page, the last second-level Apocalypse tank is about to be produced, Li Lan clicked his finger a few times, and directly selected to build a hundred Apocalypse Tanks, and the construction list will enter the countdown after the construction of the Apocalypse Tank in front of it is completed. The base showed that the construction time of the 100 ejection tanks was 120 days, or four months. This is the acceleration brought about by the fact that the base currently has nearly eighty-seven tank factories, otherwise the construction time of one Apocalypse tank is three days, and a hundred vehicles is three hundred days, and it will take a full ten months to complete. At this rate, Li Lan couldn't afford to wait.

Fortunately, each tank factory can bring half an hour of acceleration, and by now, the construction time of each Apocalypse tank has dropped to 28.5 hours. However, this is not without limits, just like the Rhino tank, which is still stuck in twelve hours of construction time.

And no matter how many chariot factories Li Lan built, this time has not changed. He had already discovered this, and when the 48 tank factories were built, the Rhino tank was built in 12 hours. After the construction of the 49th tank factory, the construction time of the Rhino tank remained 12 hours.

At the beginning, Li Lan also asked his assistant, but there was no satisfactory answer to him, and he quickly left this matter behind, in his opinion, this speed may be the limit speed of the base, at least for the time being, he does not see any signs of breakthrough.

At that time, Li Lan also thought of using other methods to speed up the production of weapons and equipment, so as to have a larger contingent as quickly as possible. For this reason, he also tried to let those mechanical experts among the scientists build a production line according to the module of the Apocalypse Tank, and the result was too taken for granted by Li Lan.

Li Lan has also seen many scenes of battlefield factories producing tanks and various weapons, and to be honest, that kind of technique will be difficult to achieve on earth even after 50 years. The tank is divided into three or four modules, each of which is injection molded by a big guy similar to a 3D printer. Then through the mechanical arm of the assembly line, it is assembled and reinforced, so that a tank comes out.

But it is this production model that makes it impossible for Li Lan to completely build his own production line in a short period of time, and there is no way to study the Rhino tank for the longest time, let alone the Apocalypse tank. At that time, the scientists bluntly told Li Lan that there was no way to quiet the industrial level of the entire Somalia. Unless it is a country like China and Russia, which consumes a lot of equipment and money, it can develop a production line for the Rhino tank.

Li Lan didn't think about really cooperating with China, but he couldn't explain why he didn't have a production line himself, but he wanted to develop and develop it with Zhonghua. So how did these tanks come about? He couldn't explain this, and the matter has been shelved until now.

Fortunately, this speed is not slow now, if it is not for the war, this speed is completely enough.

However, if a full-scale war breaks out between Somalia and a powerful country, this rate of production will slow down the war. Nowadays, the production of weapons in the whole world is taking into account the economic situation of their respective countries, and once a full-scale war breaks out, there is no concern at all, and the mothballed production lines will be immediately put into production of advanced weapons and equipment. At this time, Li Lan would fall into a very embarrassing state, because he found that he could produce one Apocalypse tank a day, while others could produce more than a dozen main battle tanks a day, and this was Li Lan's foresight.

As the saying goes, there must be a road before the car reaches the mountain, and the boat will naturally go straight to the bridge, so Li Lan is not thinking too much about it now, no one can see it in the future, and now one step at a time is the most important thing. Maybe in the future, this production speed will change! After all, it is impossible for a magical base car to put him in a situation where the production rate of weapons is less than that of others!

Of course, Li Lan did not pin his future on the base, he wanted to develop Somali industry, and he also hoped that one day he would be able to use the weapons and equipment of the base to produce non-base industries, and the combination of the two was the king. As for China, in Li Lan's words: "Your own things are the most secure." (To be continued......)
