This game is too real.
Chapter 423 Military Exercises
Chapter 423 Military Exercises
"Target preparation 5 kilometers ahead!"
"All loaded—"
"fire!"
On the open plain, as the red flag in the hand of the poplar waved forward, 20 thick and long barrels spewed out flames.
In the open space in the distance, fragments and white smoke scattered, and the wooden target inserted in the trench was blown to pieces.
Immediately afterwards, there were two rounds of barrage coverage.
The last round of white smoke exploded, forming a milky white smoke wall in the middle of the battlefield.
"The artillery fire is suppressed!"
"Tank troops advancing! Covering the infantry to occupy the position!"
Black smoke was ejected from the exhaust pipe, and thirty tanks were launched together, forming armored spearheads like sharp arrows, and advancing towards a cloud of white smoke that exploded in the distance.
At the same time, behind the thirty tanks, twenty armored trucks also started their engines, racing forward following the ruts of their tracks...
Standing on the concrete tower in the distance, Chu Guang held the binoculars and looked at the group of tanks rushing towards the trench through the smoke screen, with a smile on his lips involuntarily.
For a long time, due to the lack of heavy equipment, the alliance has taken the "special warfare route".
That is, to maximize the advantages of the soldiers themselves, and to make up for the disadvantages of heavy firepower with the will to fear death.
But now this problem has finally been solved to a certain extent.
With the gradual increase in the production capacity of the mine in Qingshi County and the ignition of the controllable nuclear fusion reactor, the production potential of the alliance's new industrial zone has finally been stimulated.
No. 81 steel factory produces engines, Goblin Technology produces turrets, the experimental facilities of the scientific expedition team produce sighting equipment, and several state-owned steel factories in the alliance produce crawler bodies and chassis, etc., and finally assemble them in the tank workshop.
There are as many as [-] factories involved in the relevant industrial chain, including large factories with assets of tens of millions of silver coins, and small workshops with only a dozen employees.
At present, the output of No. 1 tank has reached two per day.
The [-] newly produced tanks, together with the few that participated in the battle of Ruigu City before, can almost make up a tank battalion.
Of course, the key to building an armored force is not only equipment, but also personnel training.
Operating professional equipment requires long and tedious training, but the requirements for personal combat capabilities are not so obvious.
In order to give full play to the respective advantages of players and NPCs, special combat equipment such as exoskeletons will generally be given priority to the player corps, which is mainly awakened, while heavy equipment such as tanks and artillery that require multi-person operation will be given priority to NPCs corps.
However, player regiments like the Skeleton Corps who have ordered armor and mobility-related theories will also receive priority attention.
After all, when this type of corps recruits new members, they tend to value real driving experience more than personal level.
Be it truck driving experience.
Or drive a tank...
Looking at the tank troops not far away, Wrench only felt a rush of emotion.
From the beginning when facing a Conqueror [-], it was like facing a big enemy, and now the alliance has its own tank formation.
It was like a dream!
"Win, wrench."
Hearing the manager's voice, Wrench clenched his fist excitedly and responded aloud.
"That is a must! With these equipment, our army will be invincible in the desert! Whether it is the Legion or the Falcon Kingdom, it will be crushed by our tracks!"
Looking at his confident subordinates, Chu Guang nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, very spirited."
But soon, he changed the topic again and said seriously.
"Our progress is very fast, but don't be too proud. We have to admit that there is still a big gap between our No. [-] tank and the Legion's Conqueror."
"They have been stationed in the desert for many years, and many of us have never even seen what the desert looks like, so we must be cautious and handle every decision carefully!"
Wrench stood upright, beat his chest with his right fist as a military salute, and said without hesitation.
"Your Excellency said so!"
Chu Guang nodded.
As a veteran survivor force, the strength of the legion must not be underestimated.
The Conqueror 10 tank has a very low degree of electronization. That’s because it doesn’t need a high level of electronization to fight against most survivors. The gap armor that can defend against armor-piercing shells is enough to make them gallop on the battlefield and be invincible.
When the logistics supply line is difficult to maintain, the technological content of the equipment is no longer important, and lower man-hours and costs are their first priority.
After two disastrous defeats in the River Valley Province, it is not ruled out that the Legion will adjust its tactics.
For example, the production of tanks with stronger protection capabilities, aircraft with higher flight speeds, and so on.
As for the deployment of the Legion in the No. 9 oasis, so far, the information is still blank.
It takes time to detect the military situation, and Chu Guang is still waiting for news from the Zhandi guys, so there is no rush for this kind of thing.
Prince Kaliman, who was standing on the sidelines, gave this guy a subtle look.
Isn't the most inflated one the guy in the power armor?
It seems that he was the first to say that he won.
However, with his emotional intelligence, he wouldn't be able to say such inappropriate words on this occasion.
Glancing at the 20 cannons not far away, Prince Kaliman said enviously.
"Is that a 100mm gun?"
"155 mm, we call it a 155 gun."
Squinting his eyes, Chu Guang paused for a while and continued.
"Although the power of the 100mm cannon is sufficient, it is still not interesting. Since we have a more powerful charge, wouldn't it be a pity not to make the caliber larger?"
In fact, to be more specific, it is an improved version of the PCL-181 plus howitzer, which uses a 52-fold barrel caliber and a relatively lightweight design. The total weight of 25 tons is reduced to 21 tons. It can be towed and deployed, which is very convenient.
With the help of drones, the maximum range of the artillery can reach 40 kilometers, which can be doubled by using rocket-extended range bombs, but the trajectory spread at the limit distance is bound to be quite impressive.
Due to the use of azide compound charges, the explosive power far exceeds that of modern 155mm artillery, and the actual killing radius can reach the level of 203mm artillery, and the damage effect within the killing radius is also significantly enhanced.
Under the condition of insufficient precision, power can only be used to make do.
For mountainous terrain like the River Valley Province, the lighter and faster 100mm artillery is the relatively optimal solution, but when it comes to desert terrain, the wide tactical width requires more fierce firepower to fill it up.
After speaking, Chu Guang handed the telescope to the prince, so that the friend could see it more clearly.
Although he didn't quite understand why there was a more powerful explosive, instead of reducing the caliber to increase the rate of fire and range, he changed the caliber to a larger one, but Kaliman still took over the telescope.
The thick and long barrels reflected the cold light in the sun, and the more Kaliman looked at it, the more envious he became.
If only the Lion Kingdom had such artillery.
Due to the low level of industrialization, although they have millions of acres of fertile land, there are only a few factories in Wangdu that can process shells, and the shells produced are all imitations of 100mm artillery shells, so the power can be imagined.
On the other hand, the Falcon Kingdom, because of the support of the legion, although its economy is at the end of the five kingdoms, its military technology is far ahead of other kingdoms.
It fully explained that it is good to have a father.
Seeing the expression on Kaliman's face, Chu Guang smiled faintly, and he could roughly guess what he was thinking in his heart, and understood why he thought so.
After all, it was with the purpose of exerting influence that I brought him here to watch this military exercise.
"What do you think of the 155 artillery?"
Putting down the binoculars, Kaliman said emotionally with an expression of unfinished business.
"Very strong! Only 20 cannons covered a 9-kilometer front... No wonder you were able to take down that airship!"
"Haha, we didn't have these things when we hit that airship," Chu Guang smiled and continued, seeing Kaliman whose expression was gradually filled with astonishment. By then, we should be able to scrape together two full tank battalions and two artillery battalions. We can sell you some of the surplus armament, how do you see it?"
Kariman was instantly excited.
Although his expression was still restrained, his voice was trembling a little.
"These equipment...are you willing to sell it to us?"
Chu Guang nodded happily, and said generously.
"Of course... For example, the 155 artillery piece costs 100 million silver coins. For the sake of our allies, we can give you a 9% discount. There is also the No. 1 tank, which costs 150 million silver coins. You can also get a 9% discount."
"Silver coins? But we don't have silver coins," Kaliman was stunned for a moment, with a slightly embarrassed expression, "Is it okay to use lion coins? Or really not...how about dinars?"
Their kingdom has reserves of hard currencies in the wasteland such as Dinar and Cr.
But silver coins...
Never heard of it.
Seeing his reaction, Chu Guang immediately put on a serious expression.
"How can that work! Dinars are the money of the Legion, how can we use the enemy's money for business!"
"But..." Kaliman was about to explain with a headache, when Chu Guang continued.
"As for the silver coins, don't worry, one ton of grain can be exchanged for about 500 silver coins at our trading station, and the fruit will be a little more expensive, especially the sugar cane that produces sugar. If you don't have one, we can still lend you one or two hundred million Use it first, or you can pay Lion Coins equivalent to agricultural products and minerals."
Kaliman made a rough calculation, one ton of grain was 500 silver coins, and the original price of a tank was 150 million. Wouldn't it be possible to exchange 3000 tons of grain for a tank? !
It's so worth it!
Even without counting the food produced by the agricultural facilities left over from before the war, it is conservatively estimated that the agricultural products produced by 6000 acres of arable land can be exchanged for a tank, and the production capacity of 4000 acres of arable land can be exchanged for an artillery.
No matter how you calculate this deal, it's a bargain!
There are tens of millions of acres of arable land in the Lion Kingdom, and the most important thing is food!
Looking at Prince Kaliman who was secretly having fun there, Chu Guang couldn't help but have a happy smile on his face.
In fact, the price of the arms sale was not something he came up with by patting his head, but a comprehensive calculation based on the cost and the scarcity of the commodity.
Referring to the prices during World War II, the ratio of a T34 tank to a ton of wheat is close to 1:2500. (Although after the war, ten dollars was exchanged for a tank to cultivate land)
My own ratio of 1:3000 can be said to be very conscientious, even if there is no discount, it is considered a friendly price!
what?
Is it too much to sell this kind of tractor-modified tank as expensive as power armor?
That's not because tanks are expensive, but because power armor is so cheap!
After all, they are sold to their own players, and the players who can buy power armor are the most loyal "knights" of the alliance, which is equivalent to moving the left pocket to the right pocket.
If it is really sold to the outside world, let alone 100 million, it is impossible to sell [-] billion Chuguang, okay?
But this 155 artillery is different.
As long as there is that need, and the electricity, mines, and human resources can keep up, Goblin Technology can give him two doors in a day, and it will not be difficult to increase the production line.
The more industrial products are produced, the cheaper they are. That's why Chu Guang sells them generously and cheaply to his allies in exchange for the resources the alliance needs.
As for arming the allies too strongly, will it weaken the regional influence of the alliance?
joke.
The feudal dynasty can still struggle against foreign enemies, and has the combat effectiveness of a hammer in foreign warfare?
Not to mention the 155mm artillery, it's not easy to give them a few power armors.
Otherwise, why don't companies directly bypass the alliance and cooperate with the Lion Kingdom?
Are mileage and cost the core conflict?
Obviously not.
Although people are generous, it doesn't mean they are stupid.
Even if you pick a teammate, you have to pick someone who is worthy, otherwise you will be the captain of the transportation team, it will be a hell of a life...
……
The exercise is over.
From the beginning to the end of the attack, it took only 1 minutes for the 5st Corps to completely capture the position.
However, this is just a drill, not a real battlefield.
And when it came to the real battlefield, their opponents could not be those immovable wooden stakes inserted in the trenches.
Their opponents will shoot the armored tracks and tires with heavy machine guns, lay mines in front of the trenches, and fight back with anti-tank rocket launchers at all costs to prevent the advance of the armored forces... and may even resort to things they have never seen before. unconventional means.
And once the charging tank broke down halfway, it was waiting to be called by the artillery on the opposite side.
To survive on the battlefield, they must rush faster.
The cooperation of various arms must be more tacit!
Now the artillery has finished the tank charge, and in the future they have to practice the tank charge with Xu Jin's barrage, charge under the cover of the aircraft, and cover the infantry charge...
Only when all are united, from the sky to the ground, can they hope to defeat an enemy far stronger than they are.
All the troops assembled in the school field, and Chu Guang led a group of officers from the spectator seats to the chief platform.
Standing in front of all the sergeants, Chu Guang in power armor turned on the speaker of his helmet and spoke in a loud voice.
"...The performance of each department is quite good. From your high-spirited eyes, I can see the rare courage and loyalty, as well as the determination to win."
"You are the pillars of the alliance, the future of the alliance, and the future of the entire human civilization. The responsibility on your shoulders is as heavy as that of the mountains in the distance, so you must not be complacent, let alone slack."
"...The sweat you put in today is for less bloodshed tomorrow!"
"I hope you will continue to work hard! Keep going for the ideal of ending the wasteland era!"
Inside the school grounds, all the sergeants stood upright, their right fists resting on their chests.
"loyalty!!"
The uniform roar resounded throughout the vast plain, even shattering the sky.
"loyalty!"
Responding to the pair of firm gazes, Chu Guang nodded slowly, and returned a military salute neatly.
Under the gazes of all the soldiers and officers admiring—or even adoring—he gave up his speaking position to the commander of the regiment at the side, turned around and left the training ground calmly.
The evaluation of the performance of each unit in the exercise will be conducted by officers at all levels of the alliance.
Having experienced several battles, they know better than anyone where their subordinates need to improve.
This is better than all talk on paper.
As the manager of the alliance, in addition to meeting their logistical needs, Chu Guang has only two things to do.
That is to ensure their prestige in the army.
And to ensure the loyalty and morale of the army.
The future marshal of the alliance might be among the soldiers in the audience.
They are people of this world, they only have one life, and they need more than courage.
Faith is also required.
The way of managing the relationship with them is completely different from the way of managing the player community.
Chu Guang unexpectedly discovered that he, who was not very good at these things before, became more and more comfortable in handling them.
Following Chu Guang, Kaliman was thinking whether to place an order to buy 100 tanks to try whether it would be useful, or to buy 200 tanks at once and go back to build an armored thousand-man team, and the lackeys of the legion Come to a head-to-head contest.
Just when he was about to speak, Chu Guang suddenly stopped and tapped his helmet with his index finger.
Kariman was slightly taken aback.
"What's the matter, Mr. Manager."
"Wait a minute, answer the phone."
Replying casually, Chu Guang closed the helmet's visor, focusing on the holographic window displayed in the helmet.
The communication request was sent from Fallen Leaf City, and the caller was Ma Ban.
Without sloppy, as soon as the communication was connected, Maban spoke with a serious expression.
"My lord, a group of people came from the direction of Luoxia Province. They claim to be the royal family of the Honey Badger Kingdom."
Honey Badger Kingdom?
Chu Guang had heard of this name.
One of the five kingdoms in the desert, located in the No. 2 oasis near the Falcon Kingdom (No. 3 Oasis), with an area of about 5 square kilometers.
The area of Luoxia Province is ridiculously large, and so is the man-made oasis there.
Even though the No. 3 oasis is a relatively small oasis, it is almost catching up with the smaller half of Zhejiang Province on the other side of the earth.
According to the rumors of the caravan, the population of the Honey Badger Kingdom is close to one million, and it seems that it is a relatively enlightened monarchy.
Compared with the other kingdoms that inherited the legacy of the Renlian era, its national strength is still at the end of the five kingdoms, and it is also the first victim of being annexed by the Falcon Kingdom and the Legion coalition forces.
However, where there is oppression, there is resistance, and the honey badger royal family has a high prestige in Oasis No. 3, whether it is in the sense of monarchy or religious power.
And the most important thing is that the No. 3 oasis is located in the central and western part of Luoxia Province, just a little bit northerly between the No. 2 oasis and the No. 9 oasis.
If a local armed force can be fostered locally, they can suddenly appear behind the legion's ass when the alliance and the legion are in full swing...
Thinking of this, Chu Guang was overjoyed, and immediately said.
"What did they say?"
For some reason, Ma Ban's voice was suddenly a little subtle, and he coughed lightly.
"...their request is not too much, but... well, it's still a bit too much, you'd better talk to them in person."
……
In a plainly decorated carriage.
A young man and woman were sitting opposite each other. It was not difficult to see from their handsome appearance and upright sitting posture that their status was not low.
Looking at his sister sitting opposite, Summer, who looked away from the window, had a look of sadness on his face.
After a long while, he put away his indecisive expression, and whispered a word from his mouth.
"Feel sorry."
Under the slightly curly long brown hair was a fair and immature face, and from under the small and exquisite Qiong's nose floated an understatement answer.
"It's ok."
Aphne didn't take that sorry sentence to heart, or she didn't think it was something worth apologizing at all,
According to the laws of the Honey Badger Kingdom, she was already married at the age of 18.
She didn't pay attention to the changing scenery outside the window. At this moment, her attention was completely focused on the album on her lap.
It depicts a tall, mighty man with a bushy beard covering his chin that looks like a broom, and a bulky physique more like that of a full-grown gorilla.
In the Kingdom of Honey Badgers, beards are a symbol of strength. For example, her father has very long and thick beards.
The reason why the second brother who was sitting opposite her was not favored to inherit the throne was because he failed to inherit her father's beard and his physique looked too thin.
In comparison, her elder brother is much stronger, and he is still leading the Restoration Army, fighting side by side with their allies in the No. 9 oasis...
However, her father still passed on the throne to her second brother who was the least favored by everyone.
Aphne stared intently at the album, and gently turned a page with her slender index finger.
The plot is getting to a wonderful place.
A barbarian with dark green skin and golden fangs was trampled under by the brave man in heavy armor and holding a hammer. Beside him was a corpse covered in a black cloak.
This is a picture book brought from the east by a traveling businessman. It first appeared in the market of the capital of the Honey Badger Kingdom, and was deeply loved by the common people. Later, it was bought by a minister and given to her as a gift.
It is said that in the southern part of the River Valley Province, there was a powerful leader who led a group of brave survivors to face wolves and beasts several times larger than his own, beheaded the lackeys raised by the legion, and liberated the enslaved survivors...
As a result, the commercial routes in the southern part of the River Valley Province were restored, and the ruined cities in the wild were also prospered under his enlightened governance. The merchants from south to north sang the name of the lord, and the local residents lived happily ever after. life... gratifying.
Such a story may not be attractive to the people of Hump and Golden Lizard Kingdom, but to the people of Honey Badger Kingdom, it is beautiful like a fairy tale.
For more than a decade, the Kingdom of the Honey Badger has faced threats from the west.
Since the Falcon Kingdom surrendered to the Legion, they began to tamper with the law of the ancestors, and continued to expand the army, blatantly trampling on the covenant of the kings.
Every citizen of the Honey Badger Kingdom knows that the Falcon Kingdom longs for their oasis, and the Legion seeks to enslave them.
Her father didn't want to be a running dog of the legion, didn't want to betray his own beliefs, and he didn't want all the subjects of the whole country to be cannon fodder and coolies for the Willant people.
And so, in one still night, they were invaded in full force by the Legion and its hawk-hounds.
Although the royal families of various countries were furious at the shameful sneak attack of the Falcon Kingdom and denounced their royal family for abandoning the teachings of the Spirit of the Sand Sea, no one was willing to send troops to support them.
It wasn't until the Lion Kingdom became the next victim that they waited for the belated declaration of war...
But it's too late now.
Although the Lion Kingdom is the leader of the desert kings, it is hard to say how long it can last.
Relying solely on the strength of the people in the desert is no longer enough to drive away the wolves in the distance.
Either they disappear into the yellow sand with their stubborn beliefs, or they can only seek help from outsiders...
Many people paid their lives for this, including her father and mother.
In comparison, the sacrifice she had to make was insignificant at all.
Looking at the taciturn face with pity, Summer thought she was still immersed in the sadness of losing happiness, trying to comfort her sister.
"I heard that the manager has four sons, all of whom are warriors with both civil and military skills."
"Ah."
"His eldest son Kong Wu is powerful, his second son is handsome and unrestrained, his third son is resourceful, and his youngest son—"
"elder brother."
Finally couldn't bear to interrupt the second brother, Afni sighed, closed the book in her hand, and looked at him seriously.
"Don't you think this sounds like a fairytale?"
How can there be such a smooth plan.
Summer was slightly taken aback.
At this time, there was a commotion outside, and a familiar name was faintly heard.
He frowned, motioned his sister not to worry, stretched out his hand to open the door, and got out of the car.
Seeing the guard captain clashing with the crowd in the distance, he shouted loudly.
"Tarritt, what are you doing?"
"It's Teresa! The princess of the Falcon Kingdom! Those hyenas have arrived!"
Holding the muzzle of the gun in his hand, the man in the turban stared fixedly at the woman behind Ma Ban, and suddenly realized that the prince got out of the car, and immediately turned around and shouted.
"Your Highness, hurry back to the car—"
The gentle and elegant prince suddenly let out an angry shout, interrupting the captain of the guard.
"Enough, put the gun down!"
Talit looked at him in surprise and made a sound of disbelief.
"Your Highness?!"
Summer walked forward step by step, stared into his eyes and continued.
"Use your brain to think about it, how could the Falcon Kingdom, which is at war with the Lion Kingdom, come here!"
That unquestionable gaze was exactly the same as that of the previous king, although that face did not inherit the majesty of that lord at all.
Talit hesitated for a moment, finally gritted his teeth, and dropped the gun to the ground.
Glancing at the gun on the ground, Ma Ban's face remained unchanged from the beginning to the end, and he waved his hand lightly, signaling the guard next to him to put the gun away.
At the beginning, he led his people through the siege of the Bone Chewing Tribe and fled to Qingquan City, and then followed the Burning Corps to parachute to the rear of the enemy's line to organize local guerrilla resistance.
The marauders had barely shoved bayonets in his mouth, and he hadn't felt the slightest bit of fear, let alone a rifle.
In his eyes, this thing is no different from a fire stick.
but--
Although he didn't take that little threat seriously, it didn't mean that members of the alliance could be pointed at with guns at will.
"I need an explanation."
Looking past the man who put down his weapon, Ma Ban looked at the handsome young man not far away, and said in a non-joking tone.
"If you can't give a reasonable explanation, I can only ask you to sit in the guard room for a while."
"I am deeply sorry for my subordinate's rudeness, the anger clouded his mind, but I know that this is not enough to make up for your loss."
The handsome young man bowed slightly, then looked at his guard captain.
"According to the laws of the Honey Badger Kingdom, those who attempt murder will have their hair and beard shaved off and be relegated to slavery at the disposal of the victim...he is now your slave."
Talit lowered his head in humiliation, but said nothing, and knelt on the ground on one knee.
Ma Ban looked at the boy meaningfully, then at Tarrit who was kneeling on one knee, and said under the gaze of everyone.
"Get up, there are no living people kneeling on this land, the alliance only has brothers and sisters and no slaves."
Talit didn't move until the crisp voice came from behind.
"Arise, loyal bodyguard, you are free now... thank your master for forgiving your folly."
After brushing the dirt off his knees, Talit lowered his head and muttered "thank you", but hatred still shone from the corner of his eyes when he looked at Teresa.
Diplomatic disputes were resolved, and the atmosphere at the scene was no longer tense.
Ma Ban didn't look at the guard captain who was wearing a turban, but looked at the boy walking towards him with interest.
He admitted that the kid was brave.
Although it is still a little bit worse than myself.
"You are?"
"Summer Honey Badger, acting king of the Honey Badger Kingdom," the boy bowed slightly and saluted, "On behalf of the royal family of the Honey Badger Kingdom, I implore you to help us."
"Then you have to talk to our manager, I'm just the chief of the refugee camp."
Ma Ban looked at him, then at the team behind him, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Is that your kingdom?"
In other words-
Is this the only one left?
He heard the deep meaning in that voice, but Satsuma didn't care.
A weak country has no diplomacy, let alone a subjugated country.
He was very clear about his position and just replied in a calm tone.
"They are all the most loyal warriors in the kingdom. Of course we are more than these people. My eldest brother still leads the restoration army to fight against the eagle dogs of the legion on the front line, and our people have never surrendered."
Maban shrugged.
"I will report your matter to our managers."
Although emotionally he sympathizes with their suffering, but he does not think that a kingdom that has been destroyed has any value for their alliance.
The No. 3 oasis in the Midwest is more than 1000 kilometers away from here, and you have to go northwest to pass through the No. 9 oasis. There is a vast desert in the middle, which is too far away...
Of course, this is just a passing thought in his mind, how to make specific decisions is the job of the manager.
No matter what decision that adult makes, he will unconditionally support it.
As for now, his job is only to complete the construction of the outpost and help the survivors in Ruigu City rebuild their homes.
"Please be sure to tell him exactly what happened to us. The misunderstanding just now was not intentional."
Glancing at the pale princess, Summer continued to speak sincerely while thinking about why she was here.
"While the threat from the West is our common danger, we will not use this weak rhetoric to ask you to assist us without compensation."
Looking at the five shabby carriages, Ma Ban couldn't help smiling, and said something more.
"Oh, then what can you give our lord?"
So what if the five carriages were filled with gold?
Those shiny things are not worth much here.
Summer didn't pay attention to the ridicule of the "Important Minister of Allies", and said in a very soft voice.
"...No outsider has ever been able to become the master of the people of the desert, including the Falcon Kingdom that occupies that oasis, but we are willing to break this precedent."
After a pause, he continued.
"I heard that the manager has four sons. As long as one of them is willing to marry my younger sister, I will hand over the throne to him when the two heirs grow up."
"You will receive the blood of the honey badger royal family, and it is the orthodox inheritance right. With the blessing of the spirit of the sand sea, the grandson of that adult will not only be able to sit on the 3 square kilometers of fertile land in the No. 5 oasis, but also have nearly a million people. Loyal, and can justifiably become the owner of Oasis No. 2... the Falcon Kingdom."
Summer said this in a serious tone, without any hesitation in his eyes.
However, upon hearing this speech, Ma Ban was stunned, with a strange expression on his face.
After being silent for a long time, he finally choked out a word.
"...the first sentence."
"Where did you hear that?"
(End of this chapter)
"Target preparation 5 kilometers ahead!"
"All loaded—"
"fire!"
On the open plain, as the red flag in the hand of the poplar waved forward, 20 thick and long barrels spewed out flames.
In the open space in the distance, fragments and white smoke scattered, and the wooden target inserted in the trench was blown to pieces.
Immediately afterwards, there were two rounds of barrage coverage.
The last round of white smoke exploded, forming a milky white smoke wall in the middle of the battlefield.
"The artillery fire is suppressed!"
"Tank troops advancing! Covering the infantry to occupy the position!"
Black smoke was ejected from the exhaust pipe, and thirty tanks were launched together, forming armored spearheads like sharp arrows, and advancing towards a cloud of white smoke that exploded in the distance.
At the same time, behind the thirty tanks, twenty armored trucks also started their engines, racing forward following the ruts of their tracks...
Standing on the concrete tower in the distance, Chu Guang held the binoculars and looked at the group of tanks rushing towards the trench through the smoke screen, with a smile on his lips involuntarily.
For a long time, due to the lack of heavy equipment, the alliance has taken the "special warfare route".
That is, to maximize the advantages of the soldiers themselves, and to make up for the disadvantages of heavy firepower with the will to fear death.
But now this problem has finally been solved to a certain extent.
With the gradual increase in the production capacity of the mine in Qingshi County and the ignition of the controllable nuclear fusion reactor, the production potential of the alliance's new industrial zone has finally been stimulated.
No. 81 steel factory produces engines, Goblin Technology produces turrets, the experimental facilities of the scientific expedition team produce sighting equipment, and several state-owned steel factories in the alliance produce crawler bodies and chassis, etc., and finally assemble them in the tank workshop.
There are as many as [-] factories involved in the relevant industrial chain, including large factories with assets of tens of millions of silver coins, and small workshops with only a dozen employees.
At present, the output of No. 1 tank has reached two per day.
The [-] newly produced tanks, together with the few that participated in the battle of Ruigu City before, can almost make up a tank battalion.
Of course, the key to building an armored force is not only equipment, but also personnel training.
Operating professional equipment requires long and tedious training, but the requirements for personal combat capabilities are not so obvious.
In order to give full play to the respective advantages of players and NPCs, special combat equipment such as exoskeletons will generally be given priority to the player corps, which is mainly awakened, while heavy equipment such as tanks and artillery that require multi-person operation will be given priority to NPCs corps.
However, player regiments like the Skeleton Corps who have ordered armor and mobility-related theories will also receive priority attention.
After all, when this type of corps recruits new members, they tend to value real driving experience more than personal level.
Be it truck driving experience.
Or drive a tank...
Looking at the tank troops not far away, Wrench only felt a rush of emotion.
From the beginning when facing a Conqueror [-], it was like facing a big enemy, and now the alliance has its own tank formation.
It was like a dream!
"Win, wrench."
Hearing the manager's voice, Wrench clenched his fist excitedly and responded aloud.
"That is a must! With these equipment, our army will be invincible in the desert! Whether it is the Legion or the Falcon Kingdom, it will be crushed by our tracks!"
Looking at his confident subordinates, Chu Guang nodded with satisfaction.
"Yes, very spirited."
But soon, he changed the topic again and said seriously.
"Our progress is very fast, but don't be too proud. We have to admit that there is still a big gap between our No. [-] tank and the Legion's Conqueror."
"They have been stationed in the desert for many years, and many of us have never even seen what the desert looks like, so we must be cautious and handle every decision carefully!"
Wrench stood upright, beat his chest with his right fist as a military salute, and said without hesitation.
"Your Excellency said so!"
Chu Guang nodded.
As a veteran survivor force, the strength of the legion must not be underestimated.
The Conqueror 10 tank has a very low degree of electronization. That’s because it doesn’t need a high level of electronization to fight against most survivors. The gap armor that can defend against armor-piercing shells is enough to make them gallop on the battlefield and be invincible.
When the logistics supply line is difficult to maintain, the technological content of the equipment is no longer important, and lower man-hours and costs are their first priority.
After two disastrous defeats in the River Valley Province, it is not ruled out that the Legion will adjust its tactics.
For example, the production of tanks with stronger protection capabilities, aircraft with higher flight speeds, and so on.
As for the deployment of the Legion in the No. 9 oasis, so far, the information is still blank.
It takes time to detect the military situation, and Chu Guang is still waiting for news from the Zhandi guys, so there is no rush for this kind of thing.
Prince Kaliman, who was standing on the sidelines, gave this guy a subtle look.
Isn't the most inflated one the guy in the power armor?
It seems that he was the first to say that he won.
However, with his emotional intelligence, he wouldn't be able to say such inappropriate words on this occasion.
Glancing at the 20 cannons not far away, Prince Kaliman said enviously.
"Is that a 100mm gun?"
"155 mm, we call it a 155 gun."
Squinting his eyes, Chu Guang paused for a while and continued.
"Although the power of the 100mm cannon is sufficient, it is still not interesting. Since we have a more powerful charge, wouldn't it be a pity not to make the caliber larger?"
In fact, to be more specific, it is an improved version of the PCL-181 plus howitzer, which uses a 52-fold barrel caliber and a relatively lightweight design. The total weight of 25 tons is reduced to 21 tons. It can be towed and deployed, which is very convenient.
With the help of drones, the maximum range of the artillery can reach 40 kilometers, which can be doubled by using rocket-extended range bombs, but the trajectory spread at the limit distance is bound to be quite impressive.
Due to the use of azide compound charges, the explosive power far exceeds that of modern 155mm artillery, and the actual killing radius can reach the level of 203mm artillery, and the damage effect within the killing radius is also significantly enhanced.
Under the condition of insufficient precision, power can only be used to make do.
For mountainous terrain like the River Valley Province, the lighter and faster 100mm artillery is the relatively optimal solution, but when it comes to desert terrain, the wide tactical width requires more fierce firepower to fill it up.
After speaking, Chu Guang handed the telescope to the prince, so that the friend could see it more clearly.
Although he didn't quite understand why there was a more powerful explosive, instead of reducing the caliber to increase the rate of fire and range, he changed the caliber to a larger one, but Kaliman still took over the telescope.
The thick and long barrels reflected the cold light in the sun, and the more Kaliman looked at it, the more envious he became.
If only the Lion Kingdom had such artillery.
Due to the low level of industrialization, although they have millions of acres of fertile land, there are only a few factories in Wangdu that can process shells, and the shells produced are all imitations of 100mm artillery shells, so the power can be imagined.
On the other hand, the Falcon Kingdom, because of the support of the legion, although its economy is at the end of the five kingdoms, its military technology is far ahead of other kingdoms.
It fully explained that it is good to have a father.
Seeing the expression on Kaliman's face, Chu Guang smiled faintly, and he could roughly guess what he was thinking in his heart, and understood why he thought so.
After all, it was with the purpose of exerting influence that I brought him here to watch this military exercise.
"What do you think of the 155 artillery?"
Putting down the binoculars, Kaliman said emotionally with an expression of unfinished business.
"Very strong! Only 20 cannons covered a 9-kilometer front... No wonder you were able to take down that airship!"
"Haha, we didn't have these things when we hit that airship," Chu Guang smiled and continued, seeing Kaliman whose expression was gradually filled with astonishment. By then, we should be able to scrape together two full tank battalions and two artillery battalions. We can sell you some of the surplus armament, how do you see it?"
Kariman was instantly excited.
Although his expression was still restrained, his voice was trembling a little.
"These equipment...are you willing to sell it to us?"
Chu Guang nodded happily, and said generously.
"Of course... For example, the 155 artillery piece costs 100 million silver coins. For the sake of our allies, we can give you a 9% discount. There is also the No. 1 tank, which costs 150 million silver coins. You can also get a 9% discount."
"Silver coins? But we don't have silver coins," Kaliman was stunned for a moment, with a slightly embarrassed expression, "Is it okay to use lion coins? Or really not...how about dinars?"
Their kingdom has reserves of hard currencies in the wasteland such as Dinar and Cr.
But silver coins...
Never heard of it.
Seeing his reaction, Chu Guang immediately put on a serious expression.
"How can that work! Dinars are the money of the Legion, how can we use the enemy's money for business!"
"But..." Kaliman was about to explain with a headache, when Chu Guang continued.
"As for the silver coins, don't worry, one ton of grain can be exchanged for about 500 silver coins at our trading station, and the fruit will be a little more expensive, especially the sugar cane that produces sugar. If you don't have one, we can still lend you one or two hundred million Use it first, or you can pay Lion Coins equivalent to agricultural products and minerals."
Kaliman made a rough calculation, one ton of grain was 500 silver coins, and the original price of a tank was 150 million. Wouldn't it be possible to exchange 3000 tons of grain for a tank? !
It's so worth it!
Even without counting the food produced by the agricultural facilities left over from before the war, it is conservatively estimated that the agricultural products produced by 6000 acres of arable land can be exchanged for a tank, and the production capacity of 4000 acres of arable land can be exchanged for an artillery.
No matter how you calculate this deal, it's a bargain!
There are tens of millions of acres of arable land in the Lion Kingdom, and the most important thing is food!
Looking at Prince Kaliman who was secretly having fun there, Chu Guang couldn't help but have a happy smile on his face.
In fact, the price of the arms sale was not something he came up with by patting his head, but a comprehensive calculation based on the cost and the scarcity of the commodity.
Referring to the prices during World War II, the ratio of a T34 tank to a ton of wheat is close to 1:2500. (Although after the war, ten dollars was exchanged for a tank to cultivate land)
My own ratio of 1:3000 can be said to be very conscientious, even if there is no discount, it is considered a friendly price!
what?
Is it too much to sell this kind of tractor-modified tank as expensive as power armor?
That's not because tanks are expensive, but because power armor is so cheap!
After all, they are sold to their own players, and the players who can buy power armor are the most loyal "knights" of the alliance, which is equivalent to moving the left pocket to the right pocket.
If it is really sold to the outside world, let alone 100 million, it is impossible to sell [-] billion Chuguang, okay?
But this 155 artillery is different.
As long as there is that need, and the electricity, mines, and human resources can keep up, Goblin Technology can give him two doors in a day, and it will not be difficult to increase the production line.
The more industrial products are produced, the cheaper they are. That's why Chu Guang sells them generously and cheaply to his allies in exchange for the resources the alliance needs.
As for arming the allies too strongly, will it weaken the regional influence of the alliance?
joke.
The feudal dynasty can still struggle against foreign enemies, and has the combat effectiveness of a hammer in foreign warfare?
Not to mention the 155mm artillery, it's not easy to give them a few power armors.
Otherwise, why don't companies directly bypass the alliance and cooperate with the Lion Kingdom?
Are mileage and cost the core conflict?
Obviously not.
Although people are generous, it doesn't mean they are stupid.
Even if you pick a teammate, you have to pick someone who is worthy, otherwise you will be the captain of the transportation team, it will be a hell of a life...
……
The exercise is over.
From the beginning to the end of the attack, it took only 1 minutes for the 5st Corps to completely capture the position.
However, this is just a drill, not a real battlefield.
And when it came to the real battlefield, their opponents could not be those immovable wooden stakes inserted in the trenches.
Their opponents will shoot the armored tracks and tires with heavy machine guns, lay mines in front of the trenches, and fight back with anti-tank rocket launchers at all costs to prevent the advance of the armored forces... and may even resort to things they have never seen before. unconventional means.
And once the charging tank broke down halfway, it was waiting to be called by the artillery on the opposite side.
To survive on the battlefield, they must rush faster.
The cooperation of various arms must be more tacit!
Now the artillery has finished the tank charge, and in the future they have to practice the tank charge with Xu Jin's barrage, charge under the cover of the aircraft, and cover the infantry charge...
Only when all are united, from the sky to the ground, can they hope to defeat an enemy far stronger than they are.
All the troops assembled in the school field, and Chu Guang led a group of officers from the spectator seats to the chief platform.
Standing in front of all the sergeants, Chu Guang in power armor turned on the speaker of his helmet and spoke in a loud voice.
"...The performance of each department is quite good. From your high-spirited eyes, I can see the rare courage and loyalty, as well as the determination to win."
"You are the pillars of the alliance, the future of the alliance, and the future of the entire human civilization. The responsibility on your shoulders is as heavy as that of the mountains in the distance, so you must not be complacent, let alone slack."
"...The sweat you put in today is for less bloodshed tomorrow!"
"I hope you will continue to work hard! Keep going for the ideal of ending the wasteland era!"
Inside the school grounds, all the sergeants stood upright, their right fists resting on their chests.
"loyalty!!"
The uniform roar resounded throughout the vast plain, even shattering the sky.
"loyalty!"
Responding to the pair of firm gazes, Chu Guang nodded slowly, and returned a military salute neatly.
Under the gazes of all the soldiers and officers admiring—or even adoring—he gave up his speaking position to the commander of the regiment at the side, turned around and left the training ground calmly.
The evaluation of the performance of each unit in the exercise will be conducted by officers at all levels of the alliance.
Having experienced several battles, they know better than anyone where their subordinates need to improve.
This is better than all talk on paper.
As the manager of the alliance, in addition to meeting their logistical needs, Chu Guang has only two things to do.
That is to ensure their prestige in the army.
And to ensure the loyalty and morale of the army.
The future marshal of the alliance might be among the soldiers in the audience.
They are people of this world, they only have one life, and they need more than courage.
Faith is also required.
The way of managing the relationship with them is completely different from the way of managing the player community.
Chu Guang unexpectedly discovered that he, who was not very good at these things before, became more and more comfortable in handling them.
Following Chu Guang, Kaliman was thinking whether to place an order to buy 100 tanks to try whether it would be useful, or to buy 200 tanks at once and go back to build an armored thousand-man team, and the lackeys of the legion Come to a head-to-head contest.
Just when he was about to speak, Chu Guang suddenly stopped and tapped his helmet with his index finger.
Kariman was slightly taken aback.
"What's the matter, Mr. Manager."
"Wait a minute, answer the phone."
Replying casually, Chu Guang closed the helmet's visor, focusing on the holographic window displayed in the helmet.
The communication request was sent from Fallen Leaf City, and the caller was Ma Ban.
Without sloppy, as soon as the communication was connected, Maban spoke with a serious expression.
"My lord, a group of people came from the direction of Luoxia Province. They claim to be the royal family of the Honey Badger Kingdom."
Honey Badger Kingdom?
Chu Guang had heard of this name.
One of the five kingdoms in the desert, located in the No. 2 oasis near the Falcon Kingdom (No. 3 Oasis), with an area of about 5 square kilometers.
The area of Luoxia Province is ridiculously large, and so is the man-made oasis there.
Even though the No. 3 oasis is a relatively small oasis, it is almost catching up with the smaller half of Zhejiang Province on the other side of the earth.
According to the rumors of the caravan, the population of the Honey Badger Kingdom is close to one million, and it seems that it is a relatively enlightened monarchy.
Compared with the other kingdoms that inherited the legacy of the Renlian era, its national strength is still at the end of the five kingdoms, and it is also the first victim of being annexed by the Falcon Kingdom and the Legion coalition forces.
However, where there is oppression, there is resistance, and the honey badger royal family has a high prestige in Oasis No. 3, whether it is in the sense of monarchy or religious power.
And the most important thing is that the No. 3 oasis is located in the central and western part of Luoxia Province, just a little bit northerly between the No. 2 oasis and the No. 9 oasis.
If a local armed force can be fostered locally, they can suddenly appear behind the legion's ass when the alliance and the legion are in full swing...
Thinking of this, Chu Guang was overjoyed, and immediately said.
"What did they say?"
For some reason, Ma Ban's voice was suddenly a little subtle, and he coughed lightly.
"...their request is not too much, but... well, it's still a bit too much, you'd better talk to them in person."
……
In a plainly decorated carriage.
A young man and woman were sitting opposite each other. It was not difficult to see from their handsome appearance and upright sitting posture that their status was not low.
Looking at his sister sitting opposite, Summer, who looked away from the window, had a look of sadness on his face.
After a long while, he put away his indecisive expression, and whispered a word from his mouth.
"Feel sorry."
Under the slightly curly long brown hair was a fair and immature face, and from under the small and exquisite Qiong's nose floated an understatement answer.
"It's ok."
Aphne didn't take that sorry sentence to heart, or she didn't think it was something worth apologizing at all,
According to the laws of the Honey Badger Kingdom, she was already married at the age of 18.
She didn't pay attention to the changing scenery outside the window. At this moment, her attention was completely focused on the album on her lap.
It depicts a tall, mighty man with a bushy beard covering his chin that looks like a broom, and a bulky physique more like that of a full-grown gorilla.
In the Kingdom of Honey Badgers, beards are a symbol of strength. For example, her father has very long and thick beards.
The reason why the second brother who was sitting opposite her was not favored to inherit the throne was because he failed to inherit her father's beard and his physique looked too thin.
In comparison, her elder brother is much stronger, and he is still leading the Restoration Army, fighting side by side with their allies in the No. 9 oasis...
However, her father still passed on the throne to her second brother who was the least favored by everyone.
Aphne stared intently at the album, and gently turned a page with her slender index finger.
The plot is getting to a wonderful place.
A barbarian with dark green skin and golden fangs was trampled under by the brave man in heavy armor and holding a hammer. Beside him was a corpse covered in a black cloak.
This is a picture book brought from the east by a traveling businessman. It first appeared in the market of the capital of the Honey Badger Kingdom, and was deeply loved by the common people. Later, it was bought by a minister and given to her as a gift.
It is said that in the southern part of the River Valley Province, there was a powerful leader who led a group of brave survivors to face wolves and beasts several times larger than his own, beheaded the lackeys raised by the legion, and liberated the enslaved survivors...
As a result, the commercial routes in the southern part of the River Valley Province were restored, and the ruined cities in the wild were also prospered under his enlightened governance. The merchants from south to north sang the name of the lord, and the local residents lived happily ever after. life... gratifying.
Such a story may not be attractive to the people of Hump and Golden Lizard Kingdom, but to the people of Honey Badger Kingdom, it is beautiful like a fairy tale.
For more than a decade, the Kingdom of the Honey Badger has faced threats from the west.
Since the Falcon Kingdom surrendered to the Legion, they began to tamper with the law of the ancestors, and continued to expand the army, blatantly trampling on the covenant of the kings.
Every citizen of the Honey Badger Kingdom knows that the Falcon Kingdom longs for their oasis, and the Legion seeks to enslave them.
Her father didn't want to be a running dog of the legion, didn't want to betray his own beliefs, and he didn't want all the subjects of the whole country to be cannon fodder and coolies for the Willant people.
And so, in one still night, they were invaded in full force by the Legion and its hawk-hounds.
Although the royal families of various countries were furious at the shameful sneak attack of the Falcon Kingdom and denounced their royal family for abandoning the teachings of the Spirit of the Sand Sea, no one was willing to send troops to support them.
It wasn't until the Lion Kingdom became the next victim that they waited for the belated declaration of war...
But it's too late now.
Although the Lion Kingdom is the leader of the desert kings, it is hard to say how long it can last.
Relying solely on the strength of the people in the desert is no longer enough to drive away the wolves in the distance.
Either they disappear into the yellow sand with their stubborn beliefs, or they can only seek help from outsiders...
Many people paid their lives for this, including her father and mother.
In comparison, the sacrifice she had to make was insignificant at all.
Looking at the taciturn face with pity, Summer thought she was still immersed in the sadness of losing happiness, trying to comfort her sister.
"I heard that the manager has four sons, all of whom are warriors with both civil and military skills."
"Ah."
"His eldest son Kong Wu is powerful, his second son is handsome and unrestrained, his third son is resourceful, and his youngest son—"
"elder brother."
Finally couldn't bear to interrupt the second brother, Afni sighed, closed the book in her hand, and looked at him seriously.
"Don't you think this sounds like a fairytale?"
How can there be such a smooth plan.
Summer was slightly taken aback.
At this time, there was a commotion outside, and a familiar name was faintly heard.
He frowned, motioned his sister not to worry, stretched out his hand to open the door, and got out of the car.
Seeing the guard captain clashing with the crowd in the distance, he shouted loudly.
"Tarritt, what are you doing?"
"It's Teresa! The princess of the Falcon Kingdom! Those hyenas have arrived!"
Holding the muzzle of the gun in his hand, the man in the turban stared fixedly at the woman behind Ma Ban, and suddenly realized that the prince got out of the car, and immediately turned around and shouted.
"Your Highness, hurry back to the car—"
The gentle and elegant prince suddenly let out an angry shout, interrupting the captain of the guard.
"Enough, put the gun down!"
Talit looked at him in surprise and made a sound of disbelief.
"Your Highness?!"
Summer walked forward step by step, stared into his eyes and continued.
"Use your brain to think about it, how could the Falcon Kingdom, which is at war with the Lion Kingdom, come here!"
That unquestionable gaze was exactly the same as that of the previous king, although that face did not inherit the majesty of that lord at all.
Talit hesitated for a moment, finally gritted his teeth, and dropped the gun to the ground.
Glancing at the gun on the ground, Ma Ban's face remained unchanged from the beginning to the end, and he waved his hand lightly, signaling the guard next to him to put the gun away.
At the beginning, he led his people through the siege of the Bone Chewing Tribe and fled to Qingquan City, and then followed the Burning Corps to parachute to the rear of the enemy's line to organize local guerrilla resistance.
The marauders had barely shoved bayonets in his mouth, and he hadn't felt the slightest bit of fear, let alone a rifle.
In his eyes, this thing is no different from a fire stick.
but--
Although he didn't take that little threat seriously, it didn't mean that members of the alliance could be pointed at with guns at will.
"I need an explanation."
Looking past the man who put down his weapon, Ma Ban looked at the handsome young man not far away, and said in a non-joking tone.
"If you can't give a reasonable explanation, I can only ask you to sit in the guard room for a while."
"I am deeply sorry for my subordinate's rudeness, the anger clouded his mind, but I know that this is not enough to make up for your loss."
The handsome young man bowed slightly, then looked at his guard captain.
"According to the laws of the Honey Badger Kingdom, those who attempt murder will have their hair and beard shaved off and be relegated to slavery at the disposal of the victim...he is now your slave."
Talit lowered his head in humiliation, but said nothing, and knelt on the ground on one knee.
Ma Ban looked at the boy meaningfully, then at Tarrit who was kneeling on one knee, and said under the gaze of everyone.
"Get up, there are no living people kneeling on this land, the alliance only has brothers and sisters and no slaves."
Talit didn't move until the crisp voice came from behind.
"Arise, loyal bodyguard, you are free now... thank your master for forgiving your folly."
After brushing the dirt off his knees, Talit lowered his head and muttered "thank you", but hatred still shone from the corner of his eyes when he looked at Teresa.
Diplomatic disputes were resolved, and the atmosphere at the scene was no longer tense.
Ma Ban didn't look at the guard captain who was wearing a turban, but looked at the boy walking towards him with interest.
He admitted that the kid was brave.
Although it is still a little bit worse than myself.
"You are?"
"Summer Honey Badger, acting king of the Honey Badger Kingdom," the boy bowed slightly and saluted, "On behalf of the royal family of the Honey Badger Kingdom, I implore you to help us."
"Then you have to talk to our manager, I'm just the chief of the refugee camp."
Ma Ban looked at him, then at the team behind him, and couldn't help frowning slightly.
"Is that your kingdom?"
In other words-
Is this the only one left?
He heard the deep meaning in that voice, but Satsuma didn't care.
A weak country has no diplomacy, let alone a subjugated country.
He was very clear about his position and just replied in a calm tone.
"They are all the most loyal warriors in the kingdom. Of course we are more than these people. My eldest brother still leads the restoration army to fight against the eagle dogs of the legion on the front line, and our people have never surrendered."
Maban shrugged.
"I will report your matter to our managers."
Although emotionally he sympathizes with their suffering, but he does not think that a kingdom that has been destroyed has any value for their alliance.
The No. 3 oasis in the Midwest is more than 1000 kilometers away from here, and you have to go northwest to pass through the No. 9 oasis. There is a vast desert in the middle, which is too far away...
Of course, this is just a passing thought in his mind, how to make specific decisions is the job of the manager.
No matter what decision that adult makes, he will unconditionally support it.
As for now, his job is only to complete the construction of the outpost and help the survivors in Ruigu City rebuild their homes.
"Please be sure to tell him exactly what happened to us. The misunderstanding just now was not intentional."
Glancing at the pale princess, Summer continued to speak sincerely while thinking about why she was here.
"While the threat from the West is our common danger, we will not use this weak rhetoric to ask you to assist us without compensation."
Looking at the five shabby carriages, Ma Ban couldn't help smiling, and said something more.
"Oh, then what can you give our lord?"
So what if the five carriages were filled with gold?
Those shiny things are not worth much here.
Summer didn't pay attention to the ridicule of the "Important Minister of Allies", and said in a very soft voice.
"...No outsider has ever been able to become the master of the people of the desert, including the Falcon Kingdom that occupies that oasis, but we are willing to break this precedent."
After a pause, he continued.
"I heard that the manager has four sons. As long as one of them is willing to marry my younger sister, I will hand over the throne to him when the two heirs grow up."
"You will receive the blood of the honey badger royal family, and it is the orthodox inheritance right. With the blessing of the spirit of the sand sea, the grandson of that adult will not only be able to sit on the 3 square kilometers of fertile land in the No. 5 oasis, but also have nearly a million people. Loyal, and can justifiably become the owner of Oasis No. 2... the Falcon Kingdom."
Summer said this in a serious tone, without any hesitation in his eyes.
However, upon hearing this speech, Ma Ban was stunned, with a strange expression on his face.
After being silent for a long time, he finally choked out a word.
"...the first sentence."
"Where did you hear that?"
