Blessing from the goddess at the beginning, technology VS magic

Can an ordinary mortal kill a magician or a knight? Although Bud and Angela have seen this kind of thing before, that is the strange metal staff that Red used when they were ten years old.

Since there was no magic fluctuation when launching the attack, they were deeply impressed. And Angela still remembers Rhett saying - it's called science.

"Oh? Such a powerful weapon, I wonder if His Highness Uriah can demonstrate it to us?"

Bard had a conjecture in his mind, maybe the weapon in front of him was closely related to his brother!

"Of course, no problem, please come with me."

Under the leadership of Uriah, they came to the shooting range outside, and then began to introduce:

"This is my new army! They are all made up of mortals, and they are huge in number. They are well-trained knights and magicians. As long as you give them a mouthful of food, they will obey your orders."

Then Uriah raised the musket in his hand and aimed it at the target at a distance of about 50 meters. The target was covered with the standard armor of the Stephen Empire.

boom!

The lead bullet penetrated the armor easily, and Uriah said with a smile:

"You see, this is the power of muskets"

The sound and the fire are almost very similar, except that the smoke is extremely loud!

Bard said: "But at this distance, an intermediate knight can rush in front of you almost instantly. Facing a junior magister and above, he cannot penetrate his defense."

"That's true, but what if I have a thousand or ten thousand! If 100 mortals replace an intermediate knight, it will be a big profit. In the past, the mortal troops could only be used as cannon fodder to consume the energy of dealing with the main force, but Now that we have muskets, we can actually threaten magicians!"

Angela said: "Your Highness Uriah, in the eyes of the gods, the value of all lives is equal, and they should not be converted. If there are too many mortal casualties in your territory, then you have to worry about food and labor. problem”

Bud also said: "In addition, in my opinion, although this kind of weapon is not very powerful, its production is very cumbersome. How can you guarantee such a large output?"

"Do you think I am willing? It's not all Rodney's fault. He was the one who first let these mortals with muskets serve as vanguards. He didn't know that he gave them any benefits. Those mortals rushed forward without risking their lives. , if I don’t use the same method to counterattack, my army will be exhausted sooner or later.

As for the production of muskets, you don’t have to worry about this. We bought them from the United States of West Bay. As long as we have the money, they will give us as much as we want. I also thought about producing them myself, but all I made were defective products. , the cost is still more than 10 times that of buying it directly.”

"The United States of West Bay?" Bud asked: "Is it the former West Bay Federation?"

"Yes, do you know why a group of merchants were able to overthrow their nobles? They relied on muskets."

Were the muskets manufactured in the West Bay Confederacy? Could it be that Rhett fled to the West Bay Federation at that time? It would be great if that was the case.

"But I have a question," Angela said: "The West Bay Federation is the country equipped with the most Ivanli armor. Those elite troops cannot be defeated by muskets."

"That's right" Uriah whispered:

"But when those merchants rebelled, they didn't fight the elites at all, because all those elites had already died in the battle with the Sunri Republic. The royal family of the West Bay Federation blocked the news, but some of the defeated troops still fled to my territory. , only then can I know the truth of that war.”

"the truth?"

"The Republic of Sunshine is the origin of muskets, and they have even more powerful weapons!"

After leaving Uriah's castle, the two came to the streets of the city.

"Well~" Angie stretched out and said, "After so many days of work, I can finally relax. Although I knew Uriah and Kens were standing together, I didn't expect that the two of them could even speak well. Completely consistent”

She turned back to look at Bud, who was silent: "What's wrong with you?"

"I feel like he's still alive"

"Just rely on that musket? If a particularly powerful craftsman gets the original one, it is not impossible to make a replica. The power is obviously far worse than the one your brother used back then."

"But he also said there were more powerful weapons there."

"So you changed your goals? Are you looking for someone? Then I'll go with you."

"Don't you need to inform the church of such important information from Mo Luozi first? You go with me..."

Angela took out a magic scroll and said: "It doesn't matter, I will inform them right away, and then I will give an excuse and say that I found something abnormal, and I will go back later."

The two scrolls of Flying Whisper are one. When used by one party, the message the user wants to convey will appear on the scroll held by the other party.

The scroll glowed golden and then gradually dissipated.

"Let's go, the next destination is the Sunshine Republic!"

.........

"Ah!"

Pearl stepped forward and asked with concern: "Your Highness, what's wrong with you? Do you have a cold?"

"It's okay, it's just that my nose was a little itchy just now. By the way, do you have any other plans for this afternoon?"

Pearl flipped through the folder in his hand and said: "The exercise of the First Independent Armored Division is today. You promised to go and observe it before."

"Oh, right," Rhett said after tidying up the desktop, "It's getting late, so we have to set off now."

The First Independent Armored Division, in order to deal with possible hard-core opponents in the future, Rhett decided to establish an armored division first, intending to equip 500 Type 150 tanks and various armored vehicles, but now only are equipped.

Since it was an exercise and a tank duel exercise, each side was equipped with 75 tanks, three in a group, and each side had 25 groups.

The front and sides of the vehicle are painted with different paints. The drill shells used in training will be colored after hitting them. The front requires two rounds to be destroyed, while the sides and back only require one.

The purpose of this exercise is to enable the armored forces to quickly adapt to a new combat mode. Some of the personnel are suitable personnel selected from other units.

They are generally literate and have better learning abilities. Another group of students are from Liming City Military Academy. Since Red began to popularize education, this group of students have gone from the most basic elementary school to middle school and finally chose the military academy. school and graduated.

They were the first batch of high-end technical personnel to receive formal education.

It has been 3 months since I learned the theoretical knowledge and practical operation of tanks, and today is the time to test the results.
