The unique aroma of wheat gradually melted in Jeh Revere's mouth, making his eyes become moist involuntarily.
The life of a pirate once made him homeless and fearful, so much so that it was extremely difficult for him to get a good night's sleep. But now... he finally experienced the life of a normal person again.
Captain Jack was indeed right, the Idar Territory was indeed a magical place, and it once again ignited Jeh Revere's hope for the future.
Jah Revere was moved by the bustling city life in front of him. As for Captain Jack, he was also pleasantly surprised by the new weapons Bruno prepared for them.
Although compared with the Idar Navy, the newly established Idar Whaling Company can only be regarded as the godson of the Idar Territory, but the new weapons placed in the warehouse in front of him are enough to make him excited and unable to stand.
.
The number of magic crystal bombs is very small, because after all, it is an extremely important strategic material for the Idar Territory, so Bruno will naturally not hand it over easily.
Furthermore, since the pirates entrenched in Merlin Bay have been wiped out, who do you want to hit with the magic crystal bomb?
Therefore... the number of magic crystal bombs handed over to Idar Whale Hunting Company is extremely limited, and it is more to allow them to have a trump card to prevent other unexpected incidents from happening.
In fact, not only the Idar Whale Hunting Company, but also the Idar Army, the use of every magic crystal bomb must be recorded in the files to prevent the loss and abuse of this powerful weapon.
Most of the weapons and equipment provided by Bruno to the Idar Whale Hunting Company are improved melee weapons and new crossbows specially used for hunting whales.
And those improved weapons are all forged from extremely high quality steel.
Idar Steel Factory has an extremely terrifying steel output for this era, and all of this steel is high-quality steel that is one in a million.
However, since the framework of the Idar Territory has just been rolled out and construction in all aspects is only in its initial stages, in addition to the creation of close combat weapons, a large part of the steel produced by the Idar Steel Factory has been hoarded as strategic resources.
Rather than leaving it in the warehouse to eat dirt, it would be better to give some of it to the Idar Whale Hunting Company for use.
Firstly, it can greatly improve the combat capabilities of these former pirates. Secondly, it can also test the quality of these weapons through the feedback of pirates after use. It can be said to kill two birds with one stone.
Moreover, if circumstances permit in the future, Bruno can even export these weapons in exchange for a large amount of gold coins, thereby removing obstacles to the further development of the Idar Territory.
In order to facilitate the Idar Whale Hunting Company's serious business to start as soon as possible, a large part of these melee weapons are sharp and sharp harpoons. Bruno also added an additional bleeding groove at the tip of the harpoon, so as to deal with possible threats.
Enemies deal more damage.
As for the improved crossbow...Bruno called it the "I-shaped hunting harpoon".
Not only the pirate ships of the Idar Whale Hunting Company, but also the three-masted warships that the Idar Navy is proud of will soon be equipped with this brand-new weaponry.
Idar's mage apprentices combined the original ballistae with crossbow arrows, and drew a new array system in it, and what it shot was no longer an arrow, but a whale-hunting harpoon made of fine steel!
With the blessing of the magic circle, this whale-hunting harpoon is enough to burst out with huge force that penetrates the hull of the ship. It is a well-deserved artifact of naval warfare.
Captain Jack carefully touched these magical weapons in front of him. As a former pirate, he could detect the powerful power of these weapons just by looking at them. This also made Captain Jack have a deep understanding of Idar's leadership.
The strength that may be hidden is becoming more and more awe-inspiring.
Even without the magic crystal bomb, with these weapons, the Idar Territory is enough to sweep across Merlin Bay!
After giving so many good things to the Idar Whaling Company, Bruno would naturally not forget his two "biological sons" - the Idar Army Corps and the Idar Navy Corps.
In order to easily distinguish the difference between the two, Bruno reorganized the Idar Standing Army led by Sam Layton to a certain extent a few days ago, thereby establishing the Idar Army.
Today, the Idar Army consists of two units, the Idar Army First Group and the Idar Artillery Force.
In order to facilitate management, Bruno separated the artillery from the cavalry and infantry, and was specifically responsible for operating the magic cannon.
The artillery selection is also the most stringent, requiring not only service experience in the Idar Army, but also passing a special mathematics exam, which can be said to be the best among the best.
Now that the Idar Army has been established, Sam Layton, the original commander of the Idar Standing Army, has naturally been promoted and became the new commander-in-chief of the Idar Army.
It's just that... although the name sounds resounding, the actual number of people in the so-called Idar First Army is really terrible, less than a thousand people...
As for the newly established Idar Artillery Unit, there are only forty or fifty people...
Therefore, Bruno finally made a major decision...to fully expand the army!
The reason why there were only a few hundred soldiers before Idar took the lead was mainly because the population of Idar territory was only 10,000 or 20,000. A few hundred soldiers could just control the number of soldiers within a more reasonable proportion.
, but now...
A large number of refugees from all over the northern part of the empire are concentrated on the land north of the port of the Solon River, waiting to enter the Idar Territory, and the people who have already entered the Idar Territory are about to exceed the 100,000 mark, so expanding the army has become a priority.
A top priority for the Idar Territory!
As the main force responsible for the defense of Idar, we should at least increase the number of Idar Army troops to about 2,000!
Perhaps in other parts of the empire, every expansion of the army is extremely difficult, and forcibly capturing strong men is extremely common.
But in Idar Territory, there are no such troubles at all.
Although Bruno has set up many conditions for screening, the Idar Recruitment Registration Office set up at the gate of Idar City has people voluntarily register every day in order to become a soldier of the Idar Territory as soon as possible.
In the Idar Territory, being a soldier is an extremely glorious thing!
Not only can they receive a large amount of military pay every year, but the families of soldiers can also receive various preferential treatment and care.
Not to mention two thousand, as long as Bruno is willing, even four thousand soldiers can be gathered by the Idar Territory!
so,
As soon as the news of the comprehensive military expansion was released, the entire Idar Territory became excited in an instant.
