Chapter 407 The Kingdom of Dwarfs Who Unite the Military and the People

"My God, is this a plane from the Europa Empire?"

A Manchu Qing leader who owned Guangzhou City, that is, a "senator" in the Eight Kings' administration, watched the flying in the sky, blowing up the Eight Banners Heavenly Soldiers, Barracks Soldiers, and Regiment Training Soldiers in Guangzhou City to the point of crying The dwarf helicopter shouted in despair.

As one of the leaders in the Far East, the **** are naturally qualified to obtain first-hand information about the Europa Empire. For ordinary people in the Far East, the plane, which is like a fairy tale, has long been known by the top officials of the Manchu Qing government. It's no secret.

After all, the Europa Empire established pilot training bases on a large scale, encouraged private flying clubs, and made various preferential tax policy concessions for this purpose. It is impossible to hide the news.

There is no need to hide it either!

After all, airplanes are not like tanks and armored vehicles. When flying into the sky, as long as the weather is not cloudy, the people below can see it!

What's more, owning airplanes is also a deterrent to other countries. After all, just thinking about a combat weapon that can fly in the sky and drop bombs below is enough to intimidate all countries in the world.

Therefore, the high-level officials in the Far East not only know that there are planes, but also know that the Europa Empire has established a special air force branch, which is independent of the army and navy and has been established as the third largest military branch!
It is even known that aircraft are divided into three types: reconnaissance aircraft, fighter jets, and bombers.

Of course, the high-level officials in the Far East will not be able to learn more specific information.

Reconnaissance planes are used as scouts, and bombers are used to drop bombs on the ground. The high-level Manchu and Qing government in the Far East can understand these two types of planes.

It's just that fighter planes, which are specially designed to deal with air targets, cannot be understood by the top officials of the Qing government.

After all, only the Europa Empire has aircraft in the world, and even the vassal states of the Europa Empire cannot manufacture aircraft parts!
As long as the Europa Empire does not open up aircraft technology, or the relevant technology is stolen by spies, it will take at least decades for countries around the world to develop something that can fly in the sky.

Originally, the Qing government in the Far East only regarded the Europa Empire’s separate fighter aircraft as a gimmick. Now they understand that what the Europa Empire is guarding against is not their gang of war scum countries, but the army of other worlds!
There was continuous bombardment outside, and several Eight Banners guards kept persuading the policeman to leave. After all, the Wangfu is such an obvious target, so it is impossible to be hit by a few bombs.

"escape?
The troops in the entire city of Guangzhou have been defeated, where else can I escape? "

The desperate **** rejected the guards' proposal, took out a revolver from the Europa Empire, and aimed it at his temple.

Guangzhou is the most prosperous political and economic center in his fiefdom. Without Guangzhou City, even if he escapes by chance, he is doomed to be unable to keep his position as a member of the Eight Kings.

Of course, the most important thing is that he can't see the hope of the Qing government's victory. The weapons and equipment of the alien army rushing out are too advanced, just like the army of the Europa Empire descending from the sky and entering the Far East!
With the increasing exchanges with the Europa Empire, the Far East is no longer the arrogant kingdom of heaven.

The garbage equipment eliminated by the Europa Empire was snatched by the Qing government as treasures, and the various new weapons spread from the Europa Empire made the top officials of the Qing government realize that no one in this world is Emperor Li Wei opponent.

It is estimated that only years can defeat Emperor Li Wei.

Even the army of undead from other worlds, the Qing government did not regard them as opponents of the Europa Empire.

With the sound of a gunshot, the still courageous **** ended his life.

But for him in his 70s, he has enjoyed it in this life, and death is not an unacceptable thing.

Just as the prince, the lord of the Guangzhou Mansion, committed suicide, a group of dwarf helicopters slowly flew over and dropped more than a dozen dwarf bombs on this seemingly insignificant but important building.

Although it was just a bomb filled with black powder, because of its large size and sufficient charge, it still turned the prince's mansion into ruins.

The bombs originally used by the dwarves on the Makabaka continent used magic stones as the power source for the explosion. However, after the news that there was no magic energy in the new world was sent back to the Makabaka continent, the dwarves began to abandon the magic power source and search for new ones. power source.

As a result, the steam engine technology, which was regarded as a marginal technology by the dwarves, was brought out, and the black powder, which was originally discarded due to insufficient explosive power, quickly became an essential material for the dwarves' new weapons.

The dwarves that came out of the portal to another world are all products of industrial transformation in recent years.

Be it the original dwarf tank or dwarf helicopter, the power source and weapons are all powered by magic stones!

However, opening the portal to another world requires the consumption of a large amount of magic stones, and the extended time of the portal to another world must be continuously burned with magic stones.

The magic stone reserve of the dwarves is all used to support the extension of the alien portal, and let as many people as possible enter the new world. Naturally, it is impossible to bring a large number of magic stones in.

In terms of unity and friendship, the dwarves are similar to the green-skinned orcs, they try not to leave a single member behind.

The elves, orcs, and dwarves are all in order to transport as many people as possible, and they cannot carry many magic stone resources into the new world.

Only humans and vampires really brought a large amount of magic stone resources into the new world.

Even the vampire clan, in order to carry more magic stone resources, abandoned ordinary vampires with little fighting power, and only allowed strong men above the vampire baron to enter the new world.

The same is true for the human empire. Ordinary farmers and civilians are not eligible to enter the New World. In the Arigado Empire, those who enter the New World are either soldiers or nobles and bureaucrats. Of course, their families are also included.

Ordinary mercenaries do not have the right to bring their families, but the soldiers of the three elite legions of the empire still have the right to bring their families.

The Magic Guild is more ruthless than the Arigado Empire, because magicians are extremely dependent on magic resources, and they even further purify the magic stone resources for the convenience of replenishing magic power, and create a magic potion that can fill up the magic power with a single sip!

In addition, the Magic Guild owns the space storage equipment monopolized by the Makabaka Continent, and the excess magic stone resources were brought over by the magicians of the Magic Guild, and then betrayed by Merlin, all of which were cheaper for Li Wei...

Even though the Magic Guild only sent a few hundred people, the magic potion carried by these hundreds of people is enough to cast a lot of forbidden spells!
Not to mention, the magic guild also masters the technology of extracting earth core energy and transforming it into magic energy.

Before Merlin was controlled by Li Wei, he planned to be the king of the new world, the only king, not the kind of king who would fight against the royal family of the Arigado Empire!

Of course, the elves did not carry a lot of magic stone resources because the world tree can absorb life energy from nature and generate water of life to supplement the elves.

When the elves drink the water of life, they can restore a certain amount of magic power.

The orcs are a group of people who rely on their muscles to fight. Although the shamans of the orcs need to rely on magic power, their dependence is not high. The main force of the orcs' battles has never been those shamans who control magic power. Naturally, they will not reserve magic stones. , transport as many tribesmen as possible.

The dwarves found black powder that could replace the magic stone as a power source and weapon ammunition. Although the black powder was not as powerful as the magic stone bomb, the resources to synthesize black powder could also be found in the new world.

Since they want to take root in the new world, the dwarves who are good at inventing and creating naturally don't mind changing their production mode.

The reason why the Arigado Empire would rather give up a large number of ordinary people and reserve magic stone resources is because there are many aristocratic magicians in the imperial army, and their lack of magic stone resources basically means losing their combat effectiveness.

The reason why the vampires gave up the weak clansmen to reserve magic stone resources is because the powerful high-level undead need magic power to make them, and magic stones are an essential energy source for the vampires.

You can't rely on the instinct of the undead to devour flesh and blood to evolve little by little like the vampire Earl Lesas.

Even if we eat up all the creatures in the world, we won't be able to produce many high-level undead units.

What's more, the undead don't have the ability to eat up all the creatures in the new world.

The steam tanks cleared the way and demolished a large number of buildings in the miscellaneous inner city of Guangzhou, leaving enough free space.

Behind the group of steam tanks, there are dwarven gunners carrying small-caliber mortars. These are also black powder-driven artillery, similar to mortars in human history.

However, the three major systems of the Qing army that have collapsed in the city of Guangzhou do not need to let these dwarf mortar teams take action.

Among the dwarven mortar squads, there are also dwarf musketeers lined up neatly, wearing armor and holding flintlock muskets about the height of dwarves.

These dwarf musketeers are not weak long-range units. In addition to their heavy armor, each of them is equipped with a dwarf battle ax on their waists.

Throw away the musket and pick up the axe. They are the main dwarf bearded axemen in the dwarf tribe.

Dwarves like to grow beards. Generally speaking, dwarves with longer beards live longer, so bearded dwarf soldiers are often veterans who have experienced many battles.

Dwarves are also a race of soldiers!
Their life expectancy is not a few years longer than that of humans, but their fertility is not as good as that of humans. The main reason is that dwarves are far less obsessed with sexual reproduction than humans.

And dwarves attach great importance to the loyalty of love. Most dwarves only have one lover in their life, and they will never leave!

Even a dwarf king has only one queen!
This kind of culture has kept the population of the dwarves small. Fortunately, the dwarves are not a group that likes to provoke wars. In addition to being very hostile to vampires and not liking the arrogance of elves, the dwarves rarely join in the wars between different races.

The dwarves, who are good at forging and smelting, sell weapons and equipment that are popular in the Makabaka continent. Except for the undead army of the vampires who do not rely on weapons and equipment to fight, other tribes are unwilling to fight against the dwarves.

Because of the cold relationship between the proud elves and the dwarves, the elves who bought equipment from the dwarves were often severely slaughtered.

Firearms are not a rare weapon among the dwarves. Every qualified dwarf craftsman can make firearms. Most of the firearms used by dwarf musketeers are made by themselves.

This makes the dwarf musketeers very familiar with their weapons, but it also eliminates the standardized production model...

It can be said that it is difficult to find exactly the same weapons and equipment made by the dwarves.

The dwarf musketeers are the standing army of the dwarves, and they are also the most common type of arms. The first ones to come out are only the guards of the dwarf mortar squad.

Behind the dwarf musketeers, there were dwarven long-bearded warriors all holding long-handled axes in their hands and wearing dwarven full-body plate armor.

These dwarf long-bearded warriors don't carry flintlock pistols, which are short-barreled flintlock guns, which are easy to use in close combat.

Naturally, the dwarves do not have a single type of weapons like the dwarves in the game.

Muskets and axes are almost necessary equipment for every dwarf warrior!

Even those dwarven gunners who carried mortars hung flintlock pistols on one side and one-handed dwarven battle axes on the other.

The bombardier and driver of the dwarf helicopter in the sky also carried a small tomahawk, but did not carry a musket because of the small space.

However, the dwarves in the steam tank generally regain the two configurations of carrying flintlocks and battle axes.

Of course, the dwarf soldiers in the dwarf helicopter and dwarf steam tank will not wear armor.

That thing takes up too much space!
The dwarves are not hostile to humans. After the dwarf musketeers walked out of the alien portal, they immediately rushed to every corner of the city in a small group of ten people to establish a new order and wipe out the remnants of the enemy.

The dwarven mortar squads looked for commanding heights and arranged artillery positions to prevent the enemy from counterattacking.

Even though the Qing army was vulnerable to the bombing of the dwarf helicopters, the dwarf army still carried out orders meticulously in accordance with the established strategy, and no dwarf soldier underestimated the enemy.

The military discipline of the dwarves is very famous on the continent of Makabaka, comparable to the most elite army of the Arigado Empire!
You know, each of the dwarven troops has good military discipline.

They are united and disciplined, have a strong sense of collective honor, and are willing to sacrifice their lives for the group!

Even the dwarf king is elected!
Among the dwarves, class oppression is rarely seen, which is completely unimaginable in human society, every dwarf is equal!

But on the battlefield, the dwarves strictly abide by the relationship between superiors and subordinates, and obey orders as their bounden duty!

At the same time, the dwarf king is also a lifelong tenure. Although there is no term of office, the dwarf parliament can impeach the dwarf king at any time, so that the weak will abdicate and the capable person will come to power.

Of course, the abdication of most dwarf kings does not require parliamentary impeachment, and dwarf kings who have made major mistakes will take the initiative to take the blame and resign.

All the members of the dwarves are soldiers, and each community lives together in peacetime, and will quickly integrate into a corps and set foot on the battlefield in wartime!
