If Chris only buys weapons and does not sell production equipment, Bakalov and the Holy Demon Empire behind him will not agree. After all, even the decadent Qing Dynasty knows how to buy some equipment to strengthen itself, not to mention that it has never been stupid.
The Holy Demon Empire.
Therefore, Chris could only make a fuss about the price. In the end, after some bargaining, Alan Hill got another full 50,000 knowledge magic balls! With the addition of these knowledge magic balls, plus the previous knowledge magic balls,
Chris has finally filled the talent gap, which can be regarded as making the entire Ireland Hill take another step towards a healthy development situation.
Bakarov, the consul of the Eastern Province of the Holy Demon Empire who came from afar, also made a request to buy a car. After all, along the way, he had seen more and more new equipment in Ireland.
It's a pity that in the end Chris rejected the Holy Demon Empire's request, claiming that the amount of this equipment was very limited and it was definitely not for sale. Bakalov was not very interested in this kind of transportation, so he gave up in the end.
He has seen trains before, and he has also made a train himself to experience the feeling of sitting still and traveling hundreds of miles a day. Unfortunately, for Archon Bakalov, who has a dragon to travel with, this kind of slow train is too slow.
The steel behemoth obviously cannot bring more shocking feelings.
Therefore, this kind of small vehicle with good transportation capacity did not fascinate Bakarov too much. Although he liked Chris's exquisite transportation car, he was still unwilling to fall out with Alan Hill over it.
Make enemies.
After all, the Holy Demon Empire is a magical empire with various magical beasts as transportation capacity. They do not have such high demand for this kind of transportation that requires additional supplies. However, this still made Bakarov a little more vigilant.
I think there might be more advanced weapons and equipment hidden in Eiland Hill.
Similarly, what makes Bakalov deeply worried is the profound impact this kind of transportation has on Ireland: if there is enough fuel, Ireland can infinitely improve its transportation capacity. This is not a holy thing.
What the Demonic Empire wants to see.
On the other hand, when the 130 mm caliber artillery was purchased before, Ailan Hill raised the issue of transportation. Because the Mortal Empire only had the option of horse tow transportation at that time, Ailan Hill at that time was only equipped with
A weight-limited 75 mm caliber field infantry gun.
Now that Ireland has better transportation tools, it is possible to equip it with larger caliber artillery. Bakalov knew even without looking at it, that Ireland's artillery must be equipped with a 130mm caliber artillery.
cannon.
In fact, he is indeed right. At least the Irish Artillery on the Western Front has been equipped with 105 mm caliber howitzers, and is also equipped with some larger caliber 155 mm caliber howitzers.
Chris didn't want them to suffer from the performance of their artillery when facing the army of the Holy Demon Empire that might advance eastward. He knew that the 1st and 2nd armies deployed on the western front would have to compete with the Holy Demon Empire.
The main force competing for the oil fields of the Higgs Kingdom.
For Elanthil, swallowing the entire Arantian Empire is a matter of trouble and joy: Chris really wants such a large area of land so that he can find discoveries on these lands.
Ore and oil fields.
But he also really hated the sudden acquisition of such a vast land: compared with the already well-constructed Eiland Hill, most of the territory of the Arant Empire can really be regarded as barren land.
It's not that these places are really poor, but that these places are very poor compared to Elanthir. In fact, most of the territories in these places are quite rich. After all, this is the essence of the Arantian Empire.
However, due to problems such as the small-scale peasant economy, this place is simply a virgin land without any industrial foundation. Just like the situation faced by Ireland before, they need time to develop, and they need more knowledge magic balls to support it.
"I really want you and William to keep producing the Magic Ball of Knowledge." Chris complained to Frunzberg in a depressed tone. No matter how many there are, the Magic Ball of Knowledge is still an insufficient resource for him.
.
"Even if the two of us don't have to worry about the exhaustion of magic power now, we still can't mass-produce the Knowledge Magic Ball to meet your needs, Your Majesty." Frunzberg raised his head from the book and looked at Chris: "
The magic balls we make in one day are not enough for you to consume in one second."
As long as Chris wants to, he can indeed use up all the 50,000 knowledge magic balls in one day, because there are too many positions that require talents. Only those who use the knowledge magic balls can quickly adapt to their own high-tech skills.
post.
Factories, schools, and government departments have become big users of the Magic Ball of Knowledge. Another big user is the military, especially the Air Force and Navy. Fortunately, schools and factories have used the old-to-new method to train more second-tier talents, otherwise there would be these gaps.
It's still not full.
"I really want a territory with a magical atmosphere..." Chris leaned on the chair and sighed: "It doesn't have to be too big, just a piece of territory will be fine! Then I can find some magic apprentices and the like, and work non-stop every day
Give me a mass-produced magic ball of knowledge!”
"This is a good idea. Don't you have an army? Can't you just invade the eastern territory of the Holy Demon Empire?" Frunzberg glanced at Chris and said, "Leave me a house then.
, I’m really not used to living here.”
"Haha, then we have to wait a while." Chris touched his nose and said with a smile.
"Don't laugh at the Holy Demon Empire. The combat capability of the real mage legion is much more powerful than conventional combat troops such as giant horse cavalry..." Frunzberg said: "Moreover, since you already know the existence of the Eternal Empire,
You should know that that is the truly powerful opponent."
"I know! Believe me, I really know." Chris nodded and said to Frunzberg: "If it weren't for dealing with the Eternal Empire, I wouldn't be so anxious to improve the weapons and equipment of the troops."
Looking at the entire mortal kingdom, including even the Holy Demon Empire and the Norma Empire, which are close to the mortal kingdom, today's Ailan Hill cannot say that it is guaranteed to win, and it can definitely be said that it can fight. The main reason for Chris to continue to expand his army and prepare for war.
The reason is that they are still making a fuss about the Eternal Empire.
Since senior officials of the Holy Demon Empire like Bakarov and Frunzberg are very afraid of the Eternal Empire, it means that this huge and ancient empire definitely has its tyranny.
From Chris's point of view, he even thinks that the Holy Demon Empire and the Norma Empire will all be prey that can be tried to cannibalize in the future. But he has always been cautious about the somewhat unclear Eternal Empire.
Beware.
"The magic circle I have set up in Seris City is almost complete. In this way, if a magician wants to enter the city, a reaction will be triggered, and the device at the center of the magic circle will tremble." He pointed to himself.
Looking at a strange metal utensil in the office, Frunzberg said: "Will you be able to have a good sleep this way?"
"If a magician enters Seris, will it vibrate?" Chris looked at the device curiously, and touched the metal shell with his hand curiously: "You and William are not here, why doesn't it vibrate?"
"...!" Frunzberg hit his head twice with his hand, and cried out in frustration: "Oh my God! I forgot to set the variables for me and William! Oh my God! Oh my God! Bai
It’s done! It’s all in vain.”
Looking at the crazy Frunzberg, Chris shook his head and exited the great magician's office. It seemed that in recent days, he had no way to see the chief magic advisor of his empire...
…
After walking out of Frunzberg's office, Chris went to see William's work. The project this little magic apprentice was working on recently was much more practical than Frunzberg's.
He is studying how to enchant the cutting head to make it easier to chip metal, ensure quality, reduce wear, and reach the level of full mass production of standard parts. His experiments have not made much progress, as if industry and magic are two different things.
Civilizations are inherently in conflict with each other.
When he left William's laboratory, he met the military liaison officer who came to deliver a message to him. The other party handed a message to Chris, and the content above made Chris feel better.
The Alandhir army marching south swept away the remnants of the Arantian Empire. General Zorn died in the battle at Tonsk. The desperate Prince Lombak committed suicide in the Arantix Palace. A month later, the Arantian Empire collapsed.
It was completely destroyed inside.
However, in the message, Modler, who was heading south along the eastern coastline, quickly advanced to the north bank of the Fallen River, only to find that the defenders of the Arant Empire in the south had occupied the territory south of the Fallen River that should have belonged to the Arant Empire.
All dedicated to the Dothan Empire.
Similarly, the 5th Army commanded by Coria, who was ordered to go south, also encountered the Dothan Empire troops who had gone north and occupied part of the Arant Empire. Coria called Chris and asked if they should go to war directly and send Dothan to
The Imperial forces were annihilated.
"Interesting! It's really interesting!" Chris held the message in his hand, pressed the pistol holster on his waist with one hand, and tapped the holster gently with his slender fingers.
When I was dozing off, someone brought me a pillow. Is there really such a good thing in this world when I was hungry and pie fell from the sky? Or is the Dothan Empire's northward march actually a trap carefully prepared for him? Chris is planning
Thinking about how to choose, I felt a little selfless for a moment——
