Chapter 647: Departure (I)
"Now, the mobilization council begins, Bonnard, you are the head of the headquarters of the military department on which the sun never sets, you should first report all the current situation of our army to everyone present." After dozens of core members of Sunset in civilian clothes all entered the council hall, everyone present stood around the round table of the council, and Sun Lin also said to one of the middle-aged Sunsetmen after everyone had all stood.
"Yes, Your Majesty." At Sun Lin's suggestion, the middle-aged man who was pointed stood up, spread out the map he was carrying in the council hall, and said to the people around: "At present, 270,000 Sunset Cavalry have arrived in the southern region of the Central Continent at the end of August, and stationed at the border of the forest and grassland where the Centaur tribe was located before, and before that, the 8 auxiliary cavalry regiments in our cavalry army have completed the plan to change from auxiliary cavalry to Sunset light lancer dragoons. At the same time, in addition to the 100,000 cavalry of the Cuman tribe and the 50,000 centaur tribes who have been equipped with the heavy plate armor and double-edged long-handled axes created for them by our Sunset Army, the two Sunset Chivalrous Knights, the Field Order and the Black Iron Archer Cavalry Regiment, they also include the Dick Heavy Cavalry Regiment equipped with new weapons and black rhinos. Then the probability of victory in the battle between our army and it is also between five and a half points. ”
"It's a pity." Sun Lin said with a look of regret: "Although the several vampire knights given to us by the Vampire Empire are extremely powerful, because the vampire clan is completely unable to fight in the hot places in the southern region of the Central Continent, they can only fight on foot at the upper Maginot Line and cannot reinforce our cavalry army. ”
"But Your Majesty, this is also an opportunity for a qualitative change in the cavalry forces of our Great Empire." Bonnard said, and then frowned again: "Your Majesty, although the intelligence shows that the Heavenly Dragon Empire is not interested in joining the team of the old power of the King Continent this time, who is against our Great Empire. However, we still have to be careful, if the Celestial Dragon Empire's Earthwalking Dragoon Legion is combined with the cavalry units of the Griffon Empire and the Holy Light Empire, then the situation will not be good, and we must be careful that the enemy will send air cavalry troops here. ”
"You can rest assured about this matter, the spider mother of the Dark Dynasty has promised to aid our army with a hundred dragon catching spiders, and at present, 50 of them have been designated by me to stay in the northwest region of the Central Continent, and the other 50 have been marching towards the southern region of the Central Continent through the underground tunnel, at that time, these terrifying war beasts will become a big help to our cavalry army, don't underestimate these 50 giant dragon catching spiders, although their lethality is not strong. However, the venom and cobwebs it spewed out can't even withstand the creatures of the giant dragon, with the existence of these 50 dragon trapping spiders, the Earth Walking Dragon troops of the Celestial Dragon Empire are destined to be unable to exert their effects in front of the giant beasts, not to mention those air cavalry, they will definitely become food for those dragon trappers. Sun Lin said very confidently: "And in the past 1 year or so. Not only are we on the New Delhi Peninsula stepping up the training of griffin knights, but the Nat Plains in the northwest of the Central Continent are also looking at cultivating griffin knights and royal griffins. It is estimated that 50,000 griffon knights will be cultivated there. Although it is still a little difficult to turn all these 50,000 people into excellent air cavalry, as long as we delay the war with the Holy Light Empire, the more reserve griffon knights can become regular griffon knights, and the number of them will be more on the battlefield. When the time comes, I will send all the griffon knights of these 2 air cavalry regiments to the Middle Continent. ”
"Yes, Your Majesty." After getting Sun Lin's reply, Bonnard continued to point to the four areas marked with red circles on the map and said: "Except for the southern region of the Central Continent, the junction between the southern region of the Central Continent and the western region of the Central Continent. The 300,000 regular troops and Xiyi troops of our Sun Never Setting Great Empire have also been stationed in this endless forest sea after the previous conquest of the Western Regions of the Central Continent, and according to your request under Sun Linmian, our nearly 100,000 Longbow Guards have turned 80% of the area into a death zone full of traps, and at the same time, we are in this forest sea, and we have also put all the black powder produced by our Sun Never Setting Great Empire in the past 1 year into wooden barrels and buried them separately behind this forest sea. If the enemy were to attack from this area, they would have to pay for dozens, if not hundreds, of their lives for every step they took forward. ”
"In addition, the tunnel that the Spider warriors were asked to dig has been completed, and at the same time, the comrades-in-arms from the Vampire Empire and the Underground World have also learned how to operate those scorpion crossbows, No. 3 trebuchets and city-defending giant crossbows.
"As for the Scorpion Crossbow, I can sell them all the construction blueprints." Sun Lin thought for a while and shook his head and said: "Anyway, in the last 1 year or so, the thermal weapons of our Sunset Empire have developed rapidly, first the No. 2 gun has been put into mass production, the No. 3 gun is in the final testing stage, and then the earliest individual thermal weapon hand cannon has also been developed and began to develop the arquebus with a clue, and then the powerful pipe cannon has also been put into mass production in the past few weeks, and the naval battle scorpion crossbow and land battle scorpion crossbow are already eliminated for our Sunset Empire. Selling to other forces isn't a big deal, but ...... It's a pity that with the vampire clan's powerless war machine casting technique, it is estimated that even if we sell the drawings to them, they will not produce it, so let's do it, you can tell the vampire empire at that time, and when the Maginot war is over, we will sell them all the scorpion crossbows of the Sun Never Sets Empire, I think you should know what those scorpion crossbows are, right? ”
"Yes, Your Majesty, when the war on the Maginot Line is over, I will ask the blacksmiths of the Heavy Industry District of Dirk Imperial City to step up the repair of those surviving scorpion crossbows."
"Very good, as for the price, the vampire empire is a big dog, and it is so extravagant that it uses gems to buy our war equipment, so if you don't slaughter the vampire empire, it's really sorry for the merchant law of our empire where the sun never sets, right! In terms of the Scorpion Crossbow, we can let the Vampire Empire clean it up for us, but in terms of the Giant Crossbow for the City, you go and tell us that we can only provide 300 units for the time being, after all, this kind of thing is very troublesome to make, and it is not easy to sell in large quantities at present. ”
"Your Majesty, I'll pass it on to the general of the vampire clan when the time comes."
"And what is the situation of the Lower Maginot Line now?" When Sun Lin mentioned the Maginot Line, Sun Lin found that Bonnard's face changed slightly, which also caused Sun Lin's mood to change slightly.
"Your Majesty, you know that under your request, the Upper Maginot Line will not only encompass the entire coastal line of the King's Inland Sea in the Western Regions of the Central Continent, but also build a giant city wall with 3 walls, of which the height of the first side has reached 15 meters, and the second side is 20 meters, and the third side has reached 30 meters. And until now, we have only completed the first and second city walls, to be honest, it is very surprising that we can complete such a large amount of work in such a short time, but the third city wall ............" said Bonnard, looking down at the changing expression on Sun Lin's face.
After a period of silence, Sun Lin put his hands on the table and said to everyone, "No! It is necessary to build the Lower Maginot Line before the enemy begins to attack the Maginot Line, this war is different from the past, our Sun Never Sets Empire will face the strength of two Great Empires or even three Great Empires, so the Somaginot Line can now be said to be the lifeline of our Great Empire, only by building it, our Sun Never Setting Great Empire has laid down territory for so many years will be in vain.......... in this way, the third city wall we will first build those towers, etc., and we can build the city wall while fighting at that time, but now we have to speed up the construction again, you can now contact the Inland Sea Fish-People tribe of the Lower King, and ask if they can send some more manpower to increase the construction speed of the Lower Maginot Line. ”
"Understood, Your Majesty. I will convey your instructions to the patriarch of the Fish-Man Tribe of the King's Inland Sea. ”
"Very good......... By the way, are the crossbowmen of our Great Empire already equipped with the new Mo Forging Crossbow? ”
"Yes, all of our Sunset Crossbowmen are already equipped with the new Mo Forged Crossbow, and all the enemies who come here will die under the sharp armor-piercing crossbow arrows fired by our new Mo Forged Crossbow, and even the Griffin Knight will not be able to get any advantage from it."
"That's fine, then let's prepare, you let those griffin knights also prepare, in a few days I will go to the Western Regions of the Central Continent, about the matter of the third city wall, maybe I can find other benefits at that time." (To be continued......)
