In the distance, there is blood dripping and broken meat everywhere, and the scene is horrifying. This is the lethality of the iron gun within 500 meters. Under the action of the ballista, the iron gun shows amazing penetrating power.
Allen then asked Newman to increase the distance to 700 meters to measure the destructive power of the iron gun at different distances.
At a distance of 700 meters, the lethality of the spear that was fired should not be underestimated. It penetrated three cows. With this kind of power, if it hit a low-level knight wearing iron armor, it would probably kill him with one blow.
Satisfied with the power of this crossbow, Allen turned around.
"Newman, if there are enough materials, how long will it take to make such a ballista?"
Newman bowed and said: "Your Majesty Earl! If there are enough materials, it will take seven or eight days to make such a ballista!"
"Seven or eight days? Can't the time be shortened?" Allen looked stunned and frowned.
"Sir, this..." Newman looked confused.
"Okay! From now on, the Logistics Bureau will start making this kind of crossbow. Don't worry about the materials, the territory will provide them!"
It seems that it won't be used in a short time! Looking at the ink-colored ballista, Allen sighed in his heart.
After understanding the combat effectiveness of this ballista, Allen immediately thought of putting it into the battlefield. Once this ballista reaches a large scale, it will definitely be a big killer on the battlefield, whether it is against cavalry, infantry, or siege.
Fighting is very advantageous.
And if Allen wants to take the entire territory of the Duke of Kane under his control, several battles will definitely be inevitable, and the armies of the three principalities will become his opponents.
The Fire Wheat Territory's strength is indeed impressive, able to gather an army of more than 25,000 people, and there are also several high-level knights, but it cannot underestimate the other principalities.
The establishment of the three principalities took longer than the Duke of Kane. With the accumulation of time, the three principalities naturally have extraordinary foundations. Take the Principality of Linton, which currently occupies the territory of Kane, for example. This invasion sent 20,000 troops!
If the Principality of Sid and the Principality of Bru are added together, the number of troops invaded by the Three Kingdoms in the Kane Territory this time has reached 40,000! The biggest advantage of the Fire Wheat Territory at this time may be that it has two extraordinary strong men.
Fortunately, the Dief family has disappeared, so the three principalities that were originally in alliance are now fighting on their own, and they are all busy eating their own share of the cake.
This also gave the Huomai leaders a chance to defeat them one by one. Allen's plan was naturally to be the first to defeat the army of the Principality of Bru. Without the army of the Principality of Bru, even if the Principality of Linton and the Principality of Sid reacted and joined forces, the two would be defeated.
The total number of this army was only 20,000, which was on par with the Huomai leaders at this time. The Huomai leaders were not afraid at all.
And even if the three major principalities want to raise troops and materials to make a comeback, it will take a lot of time, and it is impossible to do it at once. By then, Allen has almost integrated the Duke of Kane. By then, Allen's extraordinary strength will be revealed.
The three major principalities could only endure this tone.
The extraordinary strong man already had the strength to establish a principality. Allen was not Cairn Diff. Cairn Diff was approaching his end of life and his deterrence was greatly reduced, which made the three countries covet him.
Moreover, the strength of Allen's army is not weak. Once a war is forced, the three principalities will suffer heavy losses even if they win.
Of course, it is not ruled out that the three major principalities will join forces to deal with Allen again, and the three extraordinary powerful men will be dispatched at the same time to surround and kill him! However, Allen himself feels that this possibility is very small.
The most important thing is that extraordinary powerful people have various methods, and Allen is young and can live for many years. Once Allen escapes, the three principalities will have no good life in the future. No principality wants to face it.
An extraordinary strong man who did not care and was hostile to himself, and this strong man could live for more than a hundred years!
Under the watchful eyes of Newman and his party, Allen left the Logistics Bureau with Bud Barton.
In fact, Allen still has many ideas for the use of ballistae. For example, it can be mounted on the city wall and pulled by horses, or it can be installed on sea ships to deal with sea beasts, etc. However, everything must be done step by step. These things will
After Allen established the principality, it was slowly realized.
As soon as Allen returned to Twilight Castle, he saw Eileen sitting in the hall.
"Alan! You're finally back!" Irene's face was filled with surprise when she saw Alan.
"What's the matter?" Allen sat on the seat above the hall, frowned as he looked at Eileen who stood up. Eileen would not look for him so actively except when he was in trouble.
"I came to you to discuss matters with Li Te and his family. Now their family is in Twilight City and you have sent people to guard them. Do you think it's okay..." Irene stammered.
"What? You want me to let them go?" Allen said lightly.
"No, no, look...can you return the fiefdom to them? After all, Lite has expressed his surrender to you on behalf of the Damulin family..." Irene said in a dilemma.
"Li Te asked you to speak?" Allen's tone turned cold upon hearing this, and his eyes flashed fiercely.
"No...no, Lite didn't, it was my own idea!" Erin panicked when she saw the change in Allen's face.
Irene has spent a long time with Leeteuk and has been deeply influenced by Leeteuk. She knows how much Leeteuk is afraid of Ellen, and she is always careful about everything she says and does, fearing that she will do something that will dissatisfy Ellen.
She has not had a deep feeling about Allen sending troops to invade territory and destroy families and clans, and she has not thought about the bloody methods involved. After all, there are no victims who can describe such things to her personally.
But since she spent more and more time with Li Te, listening to his admiration and fear of Allen's methods, Irene gradually realized that Allen was completely different from the brother she originally thought.
"Don't mention this matter again. I have my own arrangements for the Damulin family, so you don't have to worry about it!" Irene said coldly.
Looking at Irene's leaving figure, Allen looked solemn. Although he was a little dissatisfied with Irene's behavior, he didn't have much ill will towards the Damulin family. After all, if nothing happens, Irene will marry Damulin in the future.
Family, for the sake of Irene's future life, Allen will also restore the Damulin family title.
At the same time, what happened to Irene today also reminded Allen that he had to consider the issue of ennoblement. The Blood Continent implemented a system of enfeoffment of nobles, and naturally Allen could not act independently.
During this period, because Allen started too quickly and maintained rapid development and rapid expansion of his territory, the issue of knighthood was never in the plan.
But once soon after, Allen occupied the Dukedom of Kane and completed his plan to establish the principality, his expansion would be at a standstill for a long time, and then the issue of knighthood would be inevitable.
