After Sam and the prisoners of the White Horse Infantry Regiment were registered, they lined up to receive food.
At first, they didn't have any hope for food, they just hoped to fill their stomachs.
But when it was their turn, they were so excited that they almost shed tears when they looked at the broth and two white bread sticks in the wooden bowl.
In the Weimar Confederation, one silver coin can only buy two black breadsticks, and one white breadstick costs at least ten silver coins.
This was also the beginning of the hardships of the Weimar Federation. Prices skyrocketed. Although the Magic City organized a batch of food to enter, it was quickly divided up by the oligarchs of the Federation.
Food is produced every year, and even when it cannot meet the needs of the federal people, it is sold in large quantities.
The key reason is that the Anbu established the Bunji Chamber of Commerce in the Magic City itself. This chamber of commerce is mainly engaged in food trading business and sells food from all over the southern continent.
In order to create conflicts within the Weimar Federation, the Bunge Chamber of Commerce hoarded a large amount of food. Coupled with the continuous war, the food supply in the Southern Continent showed an upward trend.
The Bunge Chamber of Commerce immediately purchased a large amount of grain from the Weimar Federation. In order to make profits, the large federal landowners and large farmers sold large quantities of grain to the Bunge Chamber of Commerce, thus causing domestic grain prices to rise.
As food shortages caused food prices to rise, these large landowners and farmers used this as an excuse to increase food prices. The Bunge Chamber of Commerce naturally agreed to this. As a result, food shortages occurred in the federal territory and prices soared.
However, the amount of grain exported increased year by year, and some old nobles even began to increase land taxes and collect grain.
It is said that famine has begun to occur in many places, and riots have even occurred in many places.
This attack on the Weimar Federation is a trigger. As long as the capital city of the Weimar Federation is captured, a single spark can start a prairie fire and will definitely trigger uprisings in various parts of the Weimar Federation.
When the Merlocks Empire can no longer attack these rebels forcefully and bring a large amount of food at the same time, the people of the Weimar Federation will definitely be grateful. Coupled with the words and deeds of the people of the Weimar Province, I believe the people of the Weimar Federation will be very happy to join the Meilock Empire.
The big family of Rocks Empire.
"The Merox Empire is really rich!"
One prisoner gnawed on a white bread stick and said vaguely.
Sam even saw his brother in the tent set up not far away, and saw him walking over with a piece of steak stuck on his fork.
"After joining the empire, life will get better and better. If you serve the empire like me, you will be able to eat meat every day."
Sam took the steak and ate it. The sweet and juicy steak was the most delicious meat he had ever eaten in his life.
"Follow the empire and you will have meat to eat!"
Sam said something vaguely.
It immediately aroused the echo of many prisoners, asking if they could really live a good life by joining the empire.
"Sir, can I bring my family members to join the empire?"
"Me too, I have elderly parents and young brothers and sisters at home!"
Dam smiled and nodded.
"As long as you join the empire, you are a citizen of the empire. The empire will not let a citizen starve to death. I am not bragging. As long as you are willing to work and serve the empire in the empire, you will not be hungry. Become a respectable empire
Soldiers, children at home can also enjoy free compulsory education. Do you know what compulsory education is? It means reading, literacy, and becoming an educated person like a noble lord..."
Using Sam as a guide, Dam began to declare the beauty of the empire according to the propaganda brochure, and painted a pie for the captives in front of him.
Many of these are true, but these people must pass the test of the empire. As for the imperial soldiers, it is not that easy to become one.
Going from the Reserve Force to the National Defense Force is a hurdle, and going from the National Defense Force to the Combined Forces is probably a hurdle that ordinary soldiers will not be able to overcome in their lifetime.
The Melox Empire has formed a system for cultivating professionals over the years and has lowered the threshold for professionals. However, those who can truly awaken fighting spirit and magic power have only been raised to one-twentieth. Most soldiers are still considered ordinary people.
host.
Of course, there are also soldiers from the National Defense Forces with special skills who can join the United Army. For example, those who can fire artillery accurately or drive tanks and tanks slyly will also be selected to join the United Army.
Damm's propaganda was very successful, and he soon received the support of a large group of prisoners, who expressed their willingness to fight with the 1st Airborne Division.
In the end, he was rejected by Dam.
Just kidding, fighting with these guys will only lower the average combat effectiveness of the 1st Airborne Division.
Their task is very simple, which is to persuade the people in the XC area, and even the people in the villages in the main city of New Weimar, to let them cooperate.
Arthur was already prepared. If the main city of New Weimar could not be defended, he would lead an airborne division to break out and fight guerrilla warfare against the Weimar Federation.
The main city of New Weimar was turned into a quagmire of war by an airborne division. The Free Magic Alliance troops stationed in the Weimar Federation also received the news. They had just planned to send reinforcements when they were frightened by the unified army on the border.
After confirming Arthur's attack signal, Kruse decisively asked the United Army on the border to advance ten kilometers, forcing the Free Magic Alliance forces to give up reinforcements and shift to a state of war preparation.
The nearest border garrison cannot provide reinforcements. As long as the Free Magic Alliance forces from other regions support it, the nearest Free Magic Alliance forces are located in the neighboring Kingdom of Soli, which is more than 400 kilometers away from the main city of New Weimar. Without aircraft transportation,
In this case, it will take three days at the earliest.
As for the teleportation array, that thing consumes a lot of magic power. When it is impossible to produce large amounts of electrical energy, most of the time it can only be used for teleportation by a few people. Teleportation of large-scale corps is simply impossible.
In fact, the Magic City has purchased power generation equipment from the Maxim Empire, but the price is too expensive and construction will take time.
To put it simply, when large corps go into battle, the Magic City mainly relies on chariots and cavalry and the 11th Army.
From this point of view, both the Magic City and the Eastern God's Sect are worse than the Merox Empire and the Maxim Empire.
News of the raid on the main city of New Weimar was quickly sent to the Magic Parliament. All the Magic MPs looked at the report and couldn't help but look at each other.
There were no indignant accusations, no clamoring to teach the Merox Empire a lesson.
Just because they had been planning for a long time and planned to make a sneak attack to recapture Moratti's defense line.
"The Moratti defense line has just begun! Will the Merox Empire send troops?" Smith finished.
A correspondent ran in.
"Reporting to the Speaker, Your Excellency Dotuku asked whether to continue attacking Moratti's defense line?"
The Speaker of St. Peter asked in surprise: "Have you not attacked Moratti's defense line yet?"
In his eyes, it was the Moratti line of defense that was attacked, and the Merlox Empire counterattacked the Weimar Federation in anger.
