Ye Fan opened the personnel page and saw new troop types.

[Cultural and Art Troupe Member: Exceptional talent and appearance, skilled in various performances, can entertain troops. Cost: 200 Gold.]

[Honor Guard Member: Excellent height and looks, can be used for ceremonies, flag-raising activities, etc. Cost: 300 Gold.]

[Rocket Flying Soldier: Red Alert special troop type, capable of aerial combat, possesses decent combat power. Cost: 1000 Gold.]

[Deep Sea Giant Octopus: Red Alert special troop type, can team up to capsize ships, and the more there are, the greater the power. Cost: 50,000 Gold.]

Among the four new troop types, two are traditional Red Alert units.

Seeing this, Ye Fan began to realize that as he upgraded to Brigade Commander, his troops were becoming increasingly formalized.

Even the Cultural and Art Troupe and the Honor Guard were established. When he was a Regiment or Brigade Commander, these purely auxiliary troops would never have appeared.

Although Ye Fan didn't think these two troops had much use, they were sometimes necessary.

As for the Rocket Flying Soldier, Ye Fan felt this troop was somewhat fragile.

Because flying in the air inevitably makes them a target, unless they have substantial defensive power.

However, in some specific situations, this troop might perform miracles.

What delighted Ye Fan the most was that the Deep Sea Giant Octopus had finally been incorporated into the combat sequence.

Ye Fan knew upgrading it was very difficult, but once in the ocean, it should be much better.

He wondered if Xiaoba had been promoted to Three-Star yet. Ye Fan was still considering upgrading it to a Heroic Unit once it hit Three-Star.

Compared to personnel, Ye Fan was more focused on vehicles, as they are the strongest combat power of an army.

Ye Fan opened the final vehicle page, closed his eyes for a moment to pray, hoping for many vehicles to be refreshed.

Opening his eyes again, Ye Fan glanced at it and excitedly punched the air.

"Good! Just like that!"

A long list appeared on the vehicle page.

After viewing, Ye Fan counted and found that this vehicle refresh included six air force equipment, among which were two drones, one refueling aircraft, one AEW&C aircraft, and two fighters.

Three types of army equipment including one electronic interference vehicle, one rocket launcher, and one main battle tank.

Two types of naval equipment: one frigate and one conventional-powered aircraft carrier.

Once these eleven types are ready to be deployed, the combat power of the Dawn Army will certainly advance by leaps and bounds.

But these things are not cheap, such as the aircraft carrier, costing 10,000,000 and not including the carrier-based aircraft.

Equipping it with 40 carrier-based aircraft would cost 6,000,000 Gold, and adding the cost of the carrier itself brings it to 16,000,000.

Plus, it would need a few frigates, costing another 2,000,000.

After constructing some buildings, the remaining amount of over 70,000,000 might actually not be enough.

Seeing this, Ye Fan did not immediately rush to deploy troops but continued to increase the number of Barracks.

Increasing the Barracks is a long-term task, as a division requires 180,000 people, and a Barracks only adds 550 to the population limit.

The cost of building a Barracks is fifty thousand gold; Ye Fan promptly added sixty of them.

First, increasing the population cap by 33,000, ensuring the first wave of troops emerges first.

After consecutively placing over a dozen Barracks, Ye Fan began mass-producing troops.

After building the Barracks, he now had sixty-eight million in funds.

He did not construct a Wall around the Town Hall zone, as it wasn't necessary; the surrounding streets are on lockdown, and nearby are all Barracks, so no one would come to cause trouble.

Thus, nearly all of the sixty-eight million could be used for troop production.

First, infantry for sixty Barracks, which can increase the manpower by 33,000.

Ye Fan directly exploded out one brigade's worth of troops, 20,000 soldiers.

The previous five field regiments were directly renamed as the Dawn Army's first combat brigade; now, this is called the second combat brigade.

The troop setup follows the previous method, with a company costing approximately fifty thousand gold, a battalion around three hundred thousand, and a regiment approximately two million gold.

A combat brigade is thirteen million gold.

With 20,000 selected, there were fifty-five million gold left in hand.

Ye Fan first increased a naval carrier battle group.

One conventional-powered aircraft carrier, four escort ships, plus forty Attack-15 carrier-based aircraft, totaling twenty million gold.

Building this carrier battle group alone occupied a quota for 5,280 people.

With thirty-five million left, Ye Fan first went on a wave of tank production.

Apocalypse Tank, the ultimate land combat king in Red Alert, was a favorite unit of Ye Fan, costing a hundred thousand gold per tank; a wave blasted out two hundred tanks, consuming another twenty million.

With fifteen million remaining, Ye Fan produced forty Attack-16 fighter jets.

Now that Wanguo Island's airfield is in his hands, there are still some old fighter jets, totaling about a hundred, but Ye Fan wasn't impressed; with the Attack-16, who would yearn for those rotten sweet potatoes and foul eggplants?

After spending another six million, Ye Fan added two early warning planes and two refueling planes.

These two types of aircraft are very important, especially early warning planes, which can directly interfere with enemy radar signals, turning the adversary into deaf and blind, comprising a significant part of aerial combat.

Refueling planes are likewise important; with them, his fighter jet group can directly threaten enemies within a range of several thousand kilometers, solving the short-range problem of fighter jets.

The White Bear Bombers and Attack-10 fighter jets returning to Golden City were also summoned by Ye Fan to Wanguo Island, forming an aerial strike group here.

With eight million four hundred thousand in hand, Ye Fan added one hundred A300 rocket launchers for the army.

These rocket launchers have a strike range of 290 kilometers, and although they don't yet match the most advanced rocket launchers of later generations, they are leading the era now.

The artillery battalion of the Dawn Army, having A300, faces inevitable obsolescence.

After spending another five million, Ye Fan added eight electronic jamming vehicles, pairing them with the ever-growing army tank groups.

At this time, the UAV factory was completed.

Ye Fan found a vacant plot to place the UAV factory, first producing fifty Rainbow drones, such drones costing twenty thousand gold each offer high cost-effectiveness; each can carry four air-to-surface missiles, effective against enemy armored units or zombies.

A million spent, leaving two million gold, Ye Fan spent three hundred thousand gold upfront producing three thousand suicide drones.

Ye Fan was well aware of the potency of these little things; they were arguably the most cost-effective combat units.

With one million seven hundred thousand remaining, Ye Fan produced two hundred Rocket Flying Soldiers.

Currently, Wanguo Island is heavily populated, with many opposing the Dawn Army; the Military Intelligence Bureau now has over five hundred taking on crucial tasks and struggles with arrests.

These two hundred Rocket Flying Soldiers will be handed over to Shen Ruihui; sometimes using them for arrests could yield impressive outcomes.

After producing the Rocket Flying Soldiers, Ye Fan had one million five hundred thousand left intending to produce Giant Squids.

One fish alone, Xiaoba, felt lonely, needing companionship.

Just as he was preparing to produce the large squids, waves suddenly surged from the seaside in his mind.

The waves came from Xiaoba.

Xiaoba was elated, having upgraded to a Three-Star Giant Squid!
