The content of this meeting of the general council is actually very simple and broad, which is to discuss the future development plan of the school city, and then introduce Wang Xingjiang, a new member by the way, although most people think that the latter is the focus.

The new official took office three times, and even if he really wanted to do something, it should be a demonstration.

Sure enough!

"No, why is the military spending so high? Is it necessary? ”

Wang Xingjiang was frightened by the financial report displayed on the screen: nearly 20 percent of the annual financial revenue of the school city is invested in the research and development and procurement of new weapons, which is simply a heinous level of military force.

The black driver armor inside the other screen immediately spoke, "Is there anything you don't like about the part I'm responsible for?" ”

Tide shore,The highest person in charge of the military industry in the school city,Because I know too much about the lethality of those killing weapons.,Understand how fragile human beings are.,So I'm very worried about my life.,Almost all day long in armor.,And basically stay in your own shelter all the time.。

Wang Xingjiang, who flashed the other party's message, immediately replied, "Of course I'm not satisfied!" Wouldn't it be nice to spend so much money on something else? People's livelihood is the most important thing! ”

"Well, let me explain first." , Bei Jimin, who doesn't want to continue the conflict, came forward at this time, "The financial revenue of the school city is very high, enough to exceed most sovereign countries, and the necessary social management expenditure is less than one-tenth of theirs, so the funds available for use are very rich. ”

As a "country" that encompasses most of the high-tech,School City has always been no shortage of investment,So even if the tax rate is very low,,The annual tax is still very manageable。

After all, the school city is still only a city, and the number of residents is not large, so the expenditure on health, public safety and social security is not high.

"This world is not safe, in order to protect the independence of the school city, we must have strong enough force! So we have to—"

"Stop, who is your imaginary enemy?"

"What does it matter?"

"That's a big deal!"

Weak countries have no diplomacy, of course Wang Xingjiang knows this truth, but the school city can't rely on military strength at all.

"With such a little strategic depth and weapon reserves, who can you fight against? Amazing bullying a terrorist organization, okay? ”

The area of Gakuen City is only slightly larger than a third of Tokyo, about 800 square kilometers, which is not small as a city, but it is only a large city.

The military forces that can be mobilized are not too small because of the automation equipment used on a large scale, but they are only a mantis arm in front of the big powers.

Moreover, the level of science and technology is not necessarily directly proportional to combat effectiveness.

Shiogishi, who was interrupted, retorted, "What kind of nonsense are you talking about!" With weapons and equipment that surpass the level of those hillbillies in the outside world for decades, how can we possibly lose! ”

"You still don't understand the mysterious power from the East." , Wang Xingjiang shook his head very disdainfully, but he didn't plan to tell the story of the volunteers to Chao'an, but chose a more normal example.

"Not to mention anything else.,If the school city is the enemy of the five constants.,Are you sure to intercept all nuclear bombs? At the current yield, a nuclear bomb could kill most of the city's population. ”

"Of course! Our anti-missile system five years ago was enough to intercept all ballistic missiles in the world! A sloppy voice came from within the black drive armor, "Sure enough, it's just a hairy boy, and he doesn't even know our actual strength." ”

"That's pretty impressive." This level of scientific and technological strength did surprise Wang Xingjiang a little, "But how many missiles can your anti-missile system intercept?" ”

"Of course that's ......"

"Don't have anything to say?" Wang Xingjiang read the information he had just retrieved, "FC-17, the latest generation of anti-missile missiles successfully developed last year, has now fully replaced the previous generation of products FC-13 - the current reserve, 300 pieces. ”

"So what, as long as we maintain our technological superiority, no one will dare to attack us!"

"Nonsense, it's just that they don't want to do it, if others really want to take it, how can you have a chance to resist?" , Wang Xingjiang propped up his chin with both hands, "But didn't you still have the confidence to block all attacks just now?" Why do you say that others don't dare to do it now? ”

Wang Xingjiang couldn't see the tide bank's expression, but judging from the shaking degree of the chair he sat down, he was definitely in a bad mood, although he didn't like to rub salt on the wound, but he still had to point out who the real enemy was, "And there is magic in this world, and these weapons currently installed are not their opponents at all." ”

Not to mention, a single wide-area thunderstorm technique can turn the automated weapons that most school cities are proud of into scrap metal.

You need to spend tens of millions of dollars and at least half a year of production cycle for this offensive, and all the other side needs is a powerful magician waving her hand to cast spells - there are not many cattle people in this world who have reached this level.

Not to mention the Demon God who can directly reverse cause and effect.

In fact, after the development of natural science to a certain extent, it can also be comparable to or even surpass the demon gods of the forbidden world, such as Gary, whose hometown has reached the level of tampering with the laws of the universe.

The problem is that the level of the school city is not so strong.

"Ridiculous, how can there be such an exaggerated thing?"

Even though he has seen all kinds of abilities, he still doesn't believe that there is such a thing as "magic" in the world—that kind of person is just a person with the ability of the outside world.

"Director Tideshore, I think you should know some inside information, do you want to explain?"

It's true that Aresta didn't personally intervene in the administration of the school city, but that doesn't mean he doesn't care about this matter, and in order to ensure the experiment, he also needs some internal personnel to assist, and the tide bank is one of them.

"I'll explain." , Bei Ji Jimin appeared again, "You don't know anything about Ms. Qinchuan, in fact, the school city has already communicated with the forces on the magic side twenty years ago.,It's just that the contact was interrupted because the experiment didn't go well.。 ”

"No, the most important problem is actually the disagreement." , Wang Xingjiang, who was going to explain things clearly, still opened his mouth, "Many magicians are not happy to see the development of science and technology, they feel that the original life is more in line with the rules. ”

"How can there be people in the world who don't understand the benefits of technological development?"

"I'm sorry, but there really is, and it's quite a bit."
