Originally, the Creation God Sect planned to designate the Eurasian Federation as the main battlefield of the religious war. However, with the destruction of the 200,000 professional elites and hundreds of thousands of main troops of the August Empire, the military strength was greatly weakened.
As the Demonic Alliance forces pressed forward step by step, the Augu Empire had to send troops from all over the country to the front line. However, it turned out to be the weakest of the four empires.
Because the Eurasian Federation maintained a standstill with the Merox Empire, its military strength did not suffer much loss. Instead, it was slowly improving as the two countries lost.
Given the ebb and flow of the situation, changing the main battlefield to the Ancient Empire is the wisest choice.
The Creation God Sect has begun to gather its main followers to go to the Augu Empire. As soon as this news came out, the principalities of the Eurasian Federation were very happy.
But for Marquis Dwyane, it is not good news.
"Let the firearms factory start working immediately. I want to see you teach the Type 88 rifle as soon as possible."
The Marquis of Dwyane was decisive.
Wade nodded and turned to make arrangements.
In the Holy Mass Cathedral, Bishop Ella, who received the mission, did not care about attacking the mentor level. His first priority now is to mass-produce the 88-type rifles. The current output of the church's internal factory is only 500 rifles per month.
, it’s really too little.
The inventory in the church now only amounts to a thousand rifles, which is not even enough to equip a division, let alone send some of the rifles to the frontline Temple Legion.
Among the troops confronting the Melox Empire were not only the coalition forces of the principalities, but also the Temple Legion of the Omniscient Church, totaling over 100,000 people.
After Bishop Ella got the blueprint of the Type 88 rifle, he immediately spread it throughout the church. Originally, many regional churches simply threw it into the warehouse. This time, the August Empire's defeat was a wake-up call for the church.
The Pope himself issued a decree on the arming of rifles.
However, it is not easy to imitate rifles. In addition to skilled workers and equipment, it also requires a complete industrial system.
For barrel steel, bolt processing, and even components as small as the trigger, etc., they want large-scale mass production, rather than just one or two, which relies heavily on the industrial system.
The only region in the Principality of Chel that can truly be said to have complete industry is Chester. The capital Chel is dominated by magic technology, and many industrial items still have to be purchased from Chester. Most other areas are similar to Dortmund.
Agriculture or handicrafts are the main industries, and some areas are mainly mining.
A hundred thousand people must be equipped with at least 70,000 to 80,000 rifles, not to mention the skitarii in various places. The entire Eurasian Federation needs at least 4 to 50,000 rifles.
During this period, the Eurasian branch of the Omniscient Church has made estimates. With the current output value, it is barely over 10,000 per month. Many areas without industry are working even harder to produce rifles. The shipping cost of materials alone is already too much to bear.
.
The cost of the same rifle in Chester is about eighty or ninety dollars. In other areas, it can easily exceed one hundred dollars, and even many can reach one hundred and twenty dollars. What depresses the church the most is that the performance of those high-cost rifles is likely to be
Not even half of what Chester produced.
The church hopes that Bishop Ella will expand the scale of production in Chester and take orders from as many places as possible.
For this reason, Bishop Ella could only give up the opportunity to attack the mentor level and visit Aslan in person.
"This attack was really thrilling. Fortunately, His Majesty St. Paul arrived in time to prevent the tragedy from happening."
Bishop Ella said without blushing and without a beating heart: "Amuro, are you not injured? Do you need me to use my magic to check you?"
Aslan shook his head with a smile on his face, but he kept saying something in his heart.
He actually described the appearance of St. Paul as if he had asked him to come to protect him, and even acted as if he had no idea that there was a master-level powerful man behind Amuro.
Aslan looked outside the tent at the busy construction site and said with melancholy: "It's a pity that my magic academy disappeared not long after it was established."
Bishop Ella nodded empathetically.
He had also seen the prosperity of the college, but he did not expect that after the First World War, not even the ruins of the walls were left, which shows how fierce the battle was at that time.
Seeing that Aslan kept changing the topic to the academy for a long time, Bishop Ella understood that he would not discuss the main topic unless he gave Amuro a satisfactory compensation this time.
"This accident was caused by my negligence in retreating to achieve the mentor level. The church will be responsible for the reconstruction of the college."
Bishop Ella vowed.
This is what Aslan was waiting for. He has redesigned the magic academy. In addition to a lot of manpower and material resources, he also needs a lot of precious magic materials, which cannot be bought with money.
"How embarrassing!" Aslan said with an embarrassed look on his face: "Then I'll bother Bishop Ella."
Bishop Ella smiled and shook his head, then changed the topic to the right track.
"Have you received the news about the defeat in the outer continent war?"
Aslan nodded, then shook his head.
"I saw it in the newspaper, but I don't know the details."
Bishop Ella sighed and said: "The August Empire lost 500,000 elites, including more than 200,000 professionals."
Aslan took a breath of air with a look of disbelief on his face.
Arturia, who was next to her, thought to herself: "My husband's acting skills are getting better and better, and he can even win the Little Golden Man Award."
Bishop Ella said: "Now equipping rifles has been put on the agenda, and I believe an order will be issued soon."
"Does the bishop want me to expand the scale of production?"
"That's right!"
Aslan shook his head helplessly.
"Your Excellency, it's not that I am unwilling. Expanding production does not happen overnight. In addition to materials, it also requires a variety of skilled workers, supporting parts, etc...."
"The church's factory in Chester will fully cooperate with you. The original church's firearms factory has also been merged into the Clermont Defense Company."
Bishop Ella's proposal made Aslan's eyes light up. It was obvious that the church was also anxious.
As the largest industrial city in the surrounding countries, Chester's industrial strength is truly enviable. In the Merlocks Empire, it is only inferior to the Imperial Capital.
The total size of the church's factories in Chester exceeds one-tenth. Once supported by these factories, Aslan can quickly expand his wealth and strength.
"I see!"
Aslan pondered for a long time and said: "You need to give me some time. I have to reallocate resources and schedule manpower to give you an accurate answer."
Bishop Ella shook her head.
"I want to know the rough answer now. His Majesty St. Paul is still waiting for my news."
Aslan whispered: "If it was just the assistance from the church, I could increase the production of Type 88 rifles to 5,000 in the first month, and with the support of Marquis Dwyane, I wouldn't dare
Guaranteed, it’s a sure thing if it exceeds 10,000 yuan.”
Bishop Ella's eyes shone, and he instantly understood what Amuro meant.
