Vlada offered advice to the Grand Duke of the Ming and Qin Dynasties. Chester's industry has been completely restored and it is a complete industrial city. If Chester can be captured, the strength of the Asia Principality will be greatly improved, especially the artillery factory in Chester.
and rifle factories, allowing the Grand Duke of Ming and Qin to finally accept Vlada's proposal.
The Principality of Asia naturally has its own firearms factory, but the output is really limited. With the efforts of the whole country, the monthly output of Federal Type 88 rifles has just exceeded 10,000. It is difficult to replace the original army, let alone recruit new ones.
of the new army.
This ambush caught the Republic of Chil by surprise, and then the Republic began a large-scale conscription to prepare for the subsequent simultaneous attacks by the Asiatic Army and the rebels.
The surface of the Solomon Line is full of forts, but in fact the main facilities are underground.
Under the Solomon Base, a large and powerful magic lamp makes the entire underground base as bright as day. A large amount of residual waste soil in the underground base has been sorted and recycled or cleaned up. Several pools of water and cracked potholes have been filled in, and new roads have been paved.
Pipes and floors.
The engineering team is currently setting up support columns in the south and west of the underground base in preparation for building the second floor of the fortress, while Aishenko himself is in the center of the underground base, supervising the work of the workers.
A foreman wearing yellow overalls came to Aishenko and saluted the top person in charge: "Mr. Aishenko, the materials from Chester have arrived. Do you want to personally accept them?"
Aishenko raised his head and saw several trucks parked under the lights, with the Thor Group logo hanging on them.
He nodded and walked towards the truck: "I'll go take a look."
The supplies sent to the underground base are important items, and there is no room for sloppiness.
Thanks to Lord Eins's development of the truck, this powerful machine can transport as much cargo as a fleet of small horse-drawn carriages at one time.
At the same time, Aixinke was also surprised by the scale of the underground base. The main passage of the underground base could allow such large vehicles to pass freely inside.
Aixinko came to the back of the truck, slowly suspended his body in the air, flew directly up, and began to inspect the goods.
Food, clothing, new water purification device...
Aixinke nodded and ticked the boxes in the "Living Supplies" column of the record sheet in his hand.
Then he came to another truck, and the supplies in this truck came into his sight.
Boxes of Yaqingsaisu, individually packaged grenades and artillery shells, Type 88 rifles and Shen'en rifles, and boxes of bullets made Aixinko frown.
The number of weapons and ammunition stored in the new base is also too large.
This amount of weapons and ammunition was delivered every day. As the number of weapons and ammunition increased, Aixinke felt more and more something was wrong.
However, he is now tied to the Thor Group, and there is also a powerful mentor-level man named Goodluff sitting in the base, which makes him more honest.
Aixinke nodded again and began to check the "Construction Supplies" column on the record sheet.
………………
Merlo Palace, the imperial capital of the Merlox Empire, in the banquet hall.
After three consecutive days of sightseeing, Kira, the president of the Maxim Republic, finally met the rulers of the new empire - Emperor Aslan, Princess Artoria and... in a brightly lit and rather grand hall.
Several senior officials of the Melox Empire stood in front of the steps in the banquet hall.
After the attendant in charge of making the announcement read the envoy's name loudly, the rather serious-looking middle-aged man stepped forward and handed over the diplomatic document from the Maxim Republic.
This kind of red tape disgusts Aslan the most, but it is indeed a common etiquette in the continent, whether it is the central plains or the outer continent.
"Salute to you, His Majesty the Emperor of Merox, salute to you, the strongest among magicians, who led the people to overthrow the old nobles and the founder of the new empire."
The middle-aged man next to Kira looked at the man in front of him who had legendary stories in the outer continent and who had built a legendary empire in just ten years, without showing any trace of excessive curiosity or prying eyes.
The middle-aged man opened his mouth with a solemn expression and spoke in an etiquette-compliant opening, followed by a long list of titles and standard rhetoric.
"I bring the greetings of His Majesty Kira Yamato, the ruler of the Western Continent, the guardian of the Maxim Republic, the powerful and wise Kira Yamato, and the friendly wishes of the Maxim Republic."
Listening to the other party's series of declarations, Aslan's first thought was that this middle-aged man's identity was similar to that of Earth's ancient chief internal officer.
In fact, the Melox Empire also has such an official, but because of Princess Nomeli, this official position is concurrently held by the palace maid.
"Welcome to Merlocks." Aslan's response was much simpler and more straightforward.
"The Merox Empire and the Maxim Republic have always been cordial neighbors, and we will always welcome visitors from the Western Continent."
After submitting his credentials, completing the necessary audience ceremonies, introducing each other, and completing all the agreed procedures, Aslan did not let the guests from afar go through more red tape, but directly entered the Merlox Empire to entertain guests.
The main part is to announce the start of the banquet.
Nothing can't be solved at a banquet. If it can't be solved at one banquet, have a few more.
When the dazzling food was displayed in front of the guests, a light and sweet melody echoed in the hall, and the waiters began to guide the guests to their seats.
Marquis Char approached Kira and couldn't help but whisper: "Although it has been known for a long time that Aslan does not like complicated etiquette, he still did not expect that the etiquette rules are so simple and do not meet the standards of an empire at all."
Kira tilted her head slightly and glanced at Xia: "Then do you like simple processes or cumbersome rules?"
Xia Ya smiled slightly when he heard this: "Personally, of course I prefer such simple and straightforward communication, which is very similar to the teacher."
Kira nodded slightly and reminded: "In the Merlox Empire, do not call Emperor Aslan by his first name."
Xia Ya shrugged and made it clear.
The banquet has begun.
After entering the period of free activities and communication, the guests began to move around the table, take food and talk to each other. Kira naturally gave priority to meeting Aslan.
"Your Majesty Aslan, you are finally willing to show up."
With such a double entendre, Aslan could only laugh to cover up his embarrassment.
"I have kept your Majesty Kira waiting for a long time. I have gained some insights on thunder magic recently."
Kira waved her hand and said: "Your Majesty Aslan, it is now popular in our area to call like-minded people comrades. With our identities, it is very suitable for us to call each other comrades."
