Chapter 280, Washing the Ground and Raising the Flag
What is the industrial age?
The first industrial production, represented by the steam engine, ushered in the industrial era in which machinery replaced manpower.
If it develops normally, it will take at least half a century for the industrial era to take shape!
But the arrival of the Spring Breeze Team directly caused the world of ice and fire to experience two industrial revolutions.
Some equipment is steam equipment, and some equipment has been converted to internal combustion equipment!
After the 301st year of the Aegon Calendar, several hundreds of kilometers of railways within the Seven Kingdoms were completed. These railways and river traffic roads formed the basic transportation channels.
Relying on industrial production methods and assets plundered from the Iron Bank, the development of Westeros entered the rocket path.
At the beginning, only 50,000 to 60,000 people were employed to build the railway. Later, the number of people doubled exponentially.
By the end, up to a million people were building the railroad.
The road construction team spent eight months building several roads with a length of 3,000 kilometers.
These roads mainly connect cities and connect major trading areas of several countries, increasing trade volume fivefold.
After the train was built, they earned a trade volume that would have taken three years of hard work in the past.
More nobles invested in building railways.
For example, in the North, where industry began, Ed Stark spent a large sum of money and sent 100,000 people to build railways.
After a year and a half of hard work, an 800-kilometer road appeared!
This road will connect East City and Severn City, as well as the Last Hearth City in the north.
After the construction of the railway, it directly saved everyone countless time, and also allowed the rich resources of the northern border to be transported to Lindong City.
Of course, the military use of this railway is also very large.
The speed at which they dispatched soldiers to reach the Great Wall was reduced from twenty days to six days.
Winter has arrived, and the outdoor temperature in the north has reached an average of minus fifty degrees.
The temperature continues to drop!
The first year when the northern border fell into the harsh winter was pretty good. Thanks to the unique earthen kang, not many people froze to death.
The food for everyone is pretty good.
But it’s no longer possible to grow food in the north!
If you want to grow food, you need to go to the Reach in the south, or Dorne.
According to estimates, all food production in Westeros will stop next year, and the entire continent will have no food output!
Such magical things can only happen in the world of ice and fire.
When you think that Westeros will be plunged into a cold winter for at least the next five years, you can guess the difficulties in the North!
However, the emergence of railways made it easier for people to transport supplies, and the food brought from the south could supply tens of thousands of troops.
As long as there is food, the night watchman will be able to hold on until the winter fades!
During this time, King Renly was also hypnotized into a cripple and spent all day buying food from the continent of Essos.
Because the price for the city of Pentos in Essos was so high, they even started a war!
The war ended with the defeat of Pentos.
After a series of negotiations, Pentos will sell Westeros grain at a price that is 30% higher than before.
Of course, many city-states in Essos also plant plants produced in Westeros.
Potatoes, corn, high-yield wheat and other crop seeds are being transported to the Essos continent for planting.
This may be the first time agricultural linkage between several continents!
The second year after winter arrived, bad things happened again!
A large number of ghouls have appeared on the Wall. In the east and west cross-sea areas of the Wall, ghouls and other ghosts are often found trying to cross the Wall.
As the weather gets colder, ice has formed on the east and west sides of the Great Wall, allowing ghosts and corpses to attack on the ice.
Unlike before, the White Walkers, who were dispatched again after a year, have experienced a surge in strength.
Their current physical fitness is generally five times higher than that of ordinary people.
They are more skilled in the use of ice magic, and their armors have become more powerful.
Their strength has more than doubled.
Because winter has arrived, the Great Wall of Despair is accompanied by snowstorms every day.
The White Walkers who are good at sneak attacks and the zombies who are always killing people have caused extremely heavy losses to the Night's Watch.
The optimism that had been maintained before gradually decreased as the ice intensified and the White Walkers' power increased.
Fortunately, Jeor Mormont knows how to work around it.
After confirming that the White Walkers' strength had skyrocketed due to the increase in ice power, they began to ask for help from the people of the Eastern Tang Dynasty.
"Please give us some time!"
Mr. Xiong and the others naturally agree, who makes these people strong?
After Mr. Xiong left, Chen Aiguo held a meeting with the high school team, Bian Zhuang, Mu Siyue, Professor Tian and Chen Mu who had returned to the base camp.
The high school team who often patrols said straight to the point: "As the cold becomes heavier, the power of the White Walkers has more than doubled."
"During this period, the White Walkers' snow magic has become very powerful. Three days ago, a group of night watchmen were attacked, and they were killed by dense ice spears! The White Walkers' power has increased out of control!
"
"We soldiers need to be careful when fighting now, so we are very passive!"
Professor Tian analyzed: "According to the historical records of Westeros, we estimate that the lowest temperature in the north during winter can reach minus 100 degrees."
"Because there is not enough reference material for the strength and enhancement of the White Walkers, we don't yet know how powerful the enemy will be!"
"If we fight in the freezing cold of minus 100 degrees, our weapons will definitely have problems!"
"What's going on over there with the Green Prophet?" Chen Mu asked.
"I can't find any useful information. That guy has written a lot of books recently, but they are all about customs, customs and systems."
"Don't write about magic knowledge?"
"Very few. I can only write one or two every month. The alien training is also specious. The green seer is hiding something secret!"
Chen Mu frowned. He thought about taking some time to take a look at Bran, who was parasitized by the Green Seer!
The meeting continues.
"But over the past year or so, we have also obtained a lot of useful information from the Green Seer. The land of eternal winter is the lair of the Cold God. As long as we find the Night King and the altar, we can put the Cold God into a deep sleep.
.”
"Is the news reliable?"
"There is a high probability that it is reliable. Ever since we threw countless statues of magicians who claim to be gods to the Green Seer, his attitude is no longer as firm as it was at the beginning."
The greenseer only told them how the cold god appeared after R'hllor died.
The God of Cold is not a concrete god. He is the embodiment of cold, blizzard, and bad weather.
The Night King commanded by the Cold God and the army of White Walkers under his command are the disaster that kills all living beings.
Therefore, if you want to seal or even kill the Cold God, you must destroy his minions.
"Okay, first deal with the White Walkers on the Great Wall! Then look for them!"
"Now that winter is coming, everyone's strength must be improved quickly."
After entering the world of ice and fire for many years, the veteran members of the Spring Breeze Team relied on the spirit gathering array and the fantasy [White Crane Visualization] to achieve breakthroughs one after another.
Since Chen Mu broke through the innate realm, Zhang Jin, Bian Zhuang, Wang Haoran, as well as the high school team, Xiao Zhuang, Lin Ruyi, Liu Yi, Yuan Qingkai and others have broken through one after another.
So far, twelve people in the Spring Breeze Team have broken through to the innate realm.
People like Mu Siyue who have been cultivating for many years have also reached the peak of acquired nature, and are just one step away from innate nature.
Gu Ji
The unit's individual combat effectiveness has been greatly improved.
But compared to the Night King, who had no idea of their numbers or the increase in their power, there was still a big gap between them.
Fortunately, this gap can be made up with weapons and equipment!
"...In short, we need to take action in advance and strive to kill the ghosts and corpses under the cold god. Otherwise, our plan for the shovel dance will be affected!"
"Then carry out the big baptism plan!"
"I agree. 235 and 238 can already be produced. Several million-ton combat weapons have also been produced. With the addition of what we brought from the main world, we can already provide precise fire coverage."
Let’s mention the progress of weapon re-engraving here!
Only the barrel of a gun represents hard power.
So after they arrived here, in addition to the production industry, there was also a replica weapons production line.
In order to fight against the unknown gods, they also produced a large number of nuclear weapons!
The uses of these production lines are very wide. They can be converted into energy for civil and industrial use, and they can also be converted into military use.
You must know that the mixture of deuterium and tritium is a rare isotope of hydrogen.
There is no natural tritium in the world of ice and fire.
They must go through synthesis, they have technology, materials, and enough energy.
So after determining that Han Shen was difficult to deal with, they immediately transformed and produced powerful weapons.
Professor Wang looked at Tian Yuanzheng: "By the way, Lao Tian, our weapons have been produced. How is your communication and positioning going?"
Tian Yuanzheng answered with a confident smile: "The positioning devices previously deployed outside the Great Wall have been receiving positioning information feedback. We can already guarantee an effective attack with an error of no more than 200 meters outside the Great Wall within 500 kilometers! Within a range of 800 kilometers, we can carry out effective attacks.
Fixed-point attack with an error of no more than 500 meters!"
"The accuracy is not high enough. When will the satellite be launched?"
Professor Tian rolled his eyes, shook his head and said, "It's impossible to get rid of so many people. If we want to launch satellites, it will take at least five years."
There are too few basic talents in the world of ice and fire. It is very simple to train people to be warriors and basic workers.
But asking these workers to make rockets that fly into the sky cannot be completed overnight.
You must know that long before they came to this world, their first purpose was to ensure their own safety.
What they have to deal with is the gods.
Therefore, the core parts of equipment and industrial parts are mainly replicas of powerful weapons.
The ability to regain the ability to produce nuclear weapons is already a result of their having nuclear fusion energy and the overtime work of their researchers.
"Does everyone agree to a nuclear baptism?"
Chen Mu was the first to raise his hand: "I agree!"
"I agree too!"
The nuclear baptism is confirmed!
The production team also began to speed up the production of enough high-power bombs.
The production of Grand Tsar level is too troublesome.
They are only prepared to produce 1 million equivalents and 5 million equivalents.
Considering the large area outside the Great Wall and the sparse population, they planned to produce 200 pieces.
But so far, they have just produced 12, and it will take them about a month to produce them all.
These weapons cannot clear the ground for the time being, but they should be enough to deal with the White Walkers coming to attack.
Unfortunately, the land outside the Great Wall is sparsely populated and they don’t know much about the Land of Eternal Winter.
If the explosion doesn't kill the Night King, it will be very troublesome in the future!
They got important information from the Green Seer: only by killing all the White Walkers can the Night King be destroyed.
Any White Walker transformed by the Night King can become his surviving parasitic seed.
The production base in the north began to work overtime.
A large number of weapons were produced.
In addition to this, the detector that can be used to detect magical activity was also thrown outside the wall.
These devices mainly detect where the White Walkers are.
This is the latest result they came up with after chatting with Green Prophet.
Compared with magicians who can converge their own magical energy, if the White Walkers want to control a large number of corpses, they must always be alert to the cyclic feedback of ice and death magic.
For ordinary people, the elusive corpse is a living target when faced with a magician.
Once they appear, the evil energy in their bodies is like a big light bulb!
After a long period of detection, they found seven or eight places with magical fluctuations.
First, a helicopter was used to survey and after confirming that there were White Walkers in these locations, powerful bombs were directly released.
Weapons with a yield of up to one million are too powerful.
One cannonball will destroy all vegetation and life within a radius of 6 kilometers.
The powerful White Walkers simply could not withstand this terrifying explosion shock wave.
In order to ensure fire coverage, Chen Mu directly released two artillery shells in each area.
If a 1 million-ton nuclear bomb is exploded 2,000 meters above the target, all buildings within 2.4 kilometers of the center of the explosion will be razed to the ground. Most civilian buildings within 2.4 kilometers to 6.2 kilometers will be destroyed.
Serious destruction.
Two cannonballs can wipe out the White Walkers within a radius of more than ten kilometers.
More than a dozen cannonballs were fired continuously to wash the ground, directly destroying all places with magical fluctuations.
Jeor Mormont, Jon Snow and others were horrified to see it.
"Even thousands of legendary dragons can't cause such horrific destructive power!" Geo exclaimed when he saw the explosion for the first time.
"Yes, the people of the Eastern Tang Dynasty... are too scary. Making good friends with them is the best thing we can do."
Jon Snow feels the same way!
As the top commanders, they treated the people of Eastern China like this. When the soldiers at the bottom saw this, they even thought that the people of Eastern China were gods!
The complicated little thoughts that a very few people kept in their hearts disappeared with these dozen explosions.
I can't afford it, I really can't afford it!
Their weapons can easily destroy a city like King's Landing, yet they are still fighting with cold weapons.
There must be no conflict with them.
The combat effectiveness displayed by the Dongfeng Team, which has been developing in a low-key manner for several years, directly overwhelms the juniors and makes no one dare to be presumptuous.
This ground clearing directly destroyed the Night King's offensive.
The White Walker army that tried to take advantage of Winter's surge in strength to attack was destroyed by 70% to 80%.
This time, thousands of White Walkers and 400,000 wights were wiped out in this cleansing.
The attack organized by the Night King was also forced to terminate due to more than a dozen nuclear bombs.
The originally restless Great Wall became extremely peaceful because of more than a dozen shells.
The most recent defense focus of the night watchmen of the Great Wall of Despair is mainly the frozen sea surface on the east and west coasts.
The defensive pressure of the Great Wall of Despair has been greatly reduced!
In the second year of winter, after the White Walker army at the Great Wall was destroyed, peace temporarily returned to the North.
More and more people are beginning to pay attention to how to survive the winter.
But as winter comes, supplies gradually decrease, and under the pressure of hunger and cold, internal conflicts in the north begin to intensify!
