The Sun King's Evidence

The failure of the land cruiser's test devastated Ryan, and the Knight King felt a little depressed afterwards.

But the women didn't care about this. As a female knight, Sulia definitely didn't support Ryan spending so much money on this, but she didn't object and just followed her husband's random behavior.

The three little girls Rita, Cecilia and Xier were having a lot of fun, running around in the spring courtyard, causing chaos in the courtyard, while Rem stayed obediently by Emilia's side.

"Father." Frederick found Ryan: "Can you take a moment to speak?"

"Ah? Is there something that can't be said here?" Ryan was stunned for a moment by Frederick's words. The Knight King thought to himself, why is my son starting to have little secrets when he is only 16 years old?

Not loyal enough!

"I have something private that I want to discuss with you." Frederick felt strange when he saw his father in this state. He emphasized: "It's not convenient to talk about it in front of everyone."

"Okay." Ryan could only nod.

Sulia immediately noticed this scene, and the Queen of Knights immediately glanced at Devon Hill. Ryan's eldest son immediately understood and followed immediately: "I also want to know if there are any secrets, father."

After saying that, Devon Hill immediately turned to Frederick and said, "Is that okay? Frey?"

Frederick frowned, but nodded: "That's all, you can come with us."

"Sister Sulia's perception is still so sharp!" A smile appeared on Emilia's face. The mature, beautiful and majestic Imperial Lady smiled at the Knight Queen and said, "Hide away any troubles. But Sister Lidya Su’s ears and eyes are here.”

"Otherwise, how can I, the knight queen, sit still? Are you right, Emilia, I have to face many challenges every day." Sulia also smiled movingly: "De Wenhil and Frederick are brothers after all, am I right? Amelia?”

The Queen of Knights and the Imperial Lady looked at each other, lightning collided, and sparks seemed to flicker in the air.

Veronica, who was sitting aside, suddenly felt very interesting. The female speaker liked to watch women fight.

Teresa's face was as black as ink. She first glanced at Aurora, who was playing mahjong next to her, full of resentment and resentment, and then looked at the two-and-a-half-year-old Xier with a complicated expression. The two sisters chased and fought together, and in the end they could only lament.

Aurora noticed her daughter's expression. She was a little embarrassed, but obviously showed no regret or shame.

On the other side, the father and son found a balcony. Ryan stretched out his hand to summon two old guards to guard the entrance. With his back to the winter moonlight, Ryan looked at Frederick and smiled: "Tell me, son, what's the matter?" thing?"

"Father, you are too harsh on Maybach and the others." Frederick thought for a while and then said seriously: "That is simply an impossible task. I learned a lot about engineering and engineering from Uncle Gelt. Gunpowder and alchemical magic, with the current technology, there is no way to drive the land cruiser to move quickly."

"Nothing!" Before Ryan could answer, Devon Hill said impatiently: "I emphasize again, Frey, this matter is obviously Nuer's problem. We commissioned it at the beginning, and Nuer accepted the commission. The process is very simple, why make it complicated? If Noor is not capable of manufacturing it or encounters any difficulties, Maybach and the others can tell us directly! Why wait until the final delivery to do this?"

"But they have tried their best!" Frederick said impatiently: "The existing technical capabilities are only..."

"If you can't do it, don't do it!" Devon Hill said tit for tat.

"What else can Nuer do if he doesn't build the old world?" Frederick was also unceremonious: "I tell you, Devin, if it weren't for Nuer, those artillery and miniguns wouldn't be able to do it!"

"If you can't do it, you can't do it. It's better than being a waste!"

"You can't even be a good-for-nothing, you stinky little brother! If you can do it, go ahead!"

"You incompetent person! How can I evaluate a cannon and be able to fire cannonballs myself?"

Seeing the two sons who were quarreling and ready to roll up their sleeves and start fighting at any time, Ryan's head suddenly felt as big as a bucket. The King of Knights quickly reached out and pulled the two sons who disliked each other away.

Oh my God, the two sons are fighting like this. Father, how did you get here?

Moreover, the two sons each have their own territory and title. There is no real inheritance conflict, why don't it get to this point? Without me here, wouldn't they have to PK all the way?

And it seems that Lidya Su and Amelia are still happy to watch the show?

Ryan now feels a little bit like the Emperor. He once thought that the Emperor failed to take care of the original bodies. However, it was only after he became a father that Ryan deeply realized that the Emperor could make 20 (+1 ) The Primarchs managed to maintain peaceful coexistence, assigning them appropriate positions and tasks, and ensuring that they did not engage in large-scale conflagrations, is already a very remarkable thing.

"Devon Hill, you can't be so tough. As Frederick said, Nuer is already at the top of the old world's technology. If they can't do it, then it really can't be done. "Ryan first reprimanded Devin Hill for provoking the trouble: "It doesn't make any sense to just argue without considering the specific situation. Why didn't you say that your grandfather was also a waste and could kill the Four Gods of Chaos in seconds without a sword? What happened? Now that the situation has become like this, if he can’t do it, just replace him, and he’s not the only one who has immortality for mankind! Do you think this is the truth?”

(Standing in front of the Golden Throne to meet with Marshal Trajan of the Forbidden Army, the Lord of Mankind subconsciously stretched out his hand to pinch his nose and frowned.

"My lord?" Trajan, the marshal of the imperial army, found that the emperor was distracted.

"It's okay, continue.")

"Well, I'm sorry, father, I know I was wrong." Devon Hill immediately gave up and lowered his head.

"Also, Frederick, as the future Duke of Nuer, the Elector and the Grand Duke of Wesenland, you are also wrong." Ryan then reprimanded Frederick: "Since the target cannot be reached, the difficulties can be raised. The problem can be said that you cannot use fake data to fool customers, and you cannot selectively conceal it like this! If you only know how to emphasize that Noor’s technology is the best, if we can’t do it, others will certainly not be able to do it either. This is If everyone thinks like this and rests on their laurels, technology will never progress! The leading position will be surpassed sooner or later."

"Father is right." Frederick also lowered his head, and the young baron's face turned red from the training.

As soon as he raised his head, the baron discovered that Devon Hill secretly made a face at him and gave him a middle finger from a place where Ryan could not see. Frederick's blood pressure instantly rose.

This stinky brother! You wait, wait for me to find the opportunity, I won’t be able to eat the juice without you!

After training both sons, Ryan thought for a moment and asked Frederick: "I know what you want to say, Frey, do you want to ask me why I have to spend the money?" So many manpower and material resources to forcibly build such a behemoth, a steel behemoth?"

Frederick couldn't help but nodded.

Ryan sighed: "Tell me, Frederick, before the advent of steam tanks, did the Empire have something called a war wagon?"

"Oh, of course!" Frederick nodded: "A carriage without a roof is usually pulled by two or three war horses, with six musketeers or crossbowmen plus a driver. It is not very useful. After the steam tank came out, it was eliminated. Most of those tanks were transformed into light magic vehicles and war altars. Now only some relatively backward country bumpkins still use these things, such as the poor ghosts of Stirland and Nord. Hillbilly, or Ostermark savage, cheap.”

As Frederick was born in Nuer, his disdain for the poor and backward provinces of the empire was engraved in the DNA of Nuer’s higher education and was an instinctive habit.

"But sometimes war carts are also used as test tools for new war machines." Frederick seemed to deliberately want to show off in front of his father. He added: "For example, engineers will use mortars to test new war machines." Cannons, shotguns, or hellblasters mounted on war wagons."

"So what's the effect?" Ryan smiled and nodded.

"How should I put it? If the war vehicle base can be scaled up, its flexibility to move and shoot and its power to focus fire will still be barely adequate. Being able to run and fight at the same time is the advantage of this type of military." Frederick thought for a while. , tried to say: "But there are two weaknesses of the war chariot barrier. The first is that the chariot barrier is actually quite heavy. The war horses cannot pull the chariot for a long time and are easily fatigued, and it is difficult to control the speed and steering of the vehicle. The second is that the chariot barrier is actually quite heavy. It’s because the barrier’s protective performance is not good, and any slight damage can easily kill the six shooters and drivers on the barrier, so the war barrier has a nickname, called the Seven Brothers Coffin.”

"Yes." Ryan sighed: "Then if you think about it carefully, can ten war wagons beat one steam tank?"

"How is that possible?" Frederick couldn't help laughing: "The steam tank is Nuer's pride. Not to mention anything else, just the external welded steel plate, whether it is a crossbow or a musket, or even It’s the mortar cannon and the Hellblast rapid-firing cannon. Nothing can penetrate the steel plate of the steam tank. Only things like Behemoth, Chaos Hell Cannon and super-large magic can pose a threat to the steam tank.”

"Yes, so we can draw a conclusion." Ryan nodded: "Can we defeat the threat from Chaos with these inferior, cheap mass-produced products? Let me put it simply, Motkin a few years ago During the Great Invasion, if the Empire only has sword and shield soldiers, spearmen and crossbowmen, can it deal with the heavily armored Chaos Warriors?"

"You must have a musketeer or a big swordsman. Only muskets and big swords can split the plate armor on them. Of course, we also need the power of artillery and the impact of knights." Frederick understood what Ryan meant. The young baron began to think deeply: "I kind of understand, father, do you mean that the Land Cruiser is your Nur Armored Army, your Old Guard and your Holy Grail Knights?"

"Chaos can't be killed by relying on numbers." Ryan said helplessly: "You can see how hard our Order Alliance fought during the Motekin invasion. I successively won the victory in the Swamp of Pain and the epic victory in the Battle of the Three Kings. , defeated the Slaanesh army in the Battle of Herzig, but in the final Battle of Wolfen, the remaining tens of thousands of Motejin could not defeat us despite our three-way siege. If Motekin hadn't committed suicide, The end of our life has led to chaos in the Chaos Army, and we even have to be prepared to lose more than half of it.”

Devon Hill finally found a chance to interject: "That's because my father was forced into the battlefield by Uncle Ruth. It's not my father's problem."

"I can't say that." Ryan shook his head: "Without your uncle Ruth's help, our losses may be even greater."

"I understand, father." Frederick understood: "A large army of miscellaneous fish is not as important as an elite army. No matter how many vehicle barriers there are in the war, they will not be an opponent of the land cruiser."

It seems that the imperial infantry regiment's timidity also left a deep impression on Frederick.

"When the cheap mass production route proves to be unable to change the overall situation, we must take the elite route." Ryan nodded: "Compared with people... How can we compare with the infinite army sources of the undead? Compared with the endless supply of the green skins Waaagh? Or is it better than Chaos constantly spawning Martian soldiers for you in the northern wasteland and summoning demon legions anytime and anywhere?"

"More people are also a disadvantage." Although he didn't quite understand what Mars was, Frederick understood the meaning. The Baron shrugged: "I have a headache when I think about the greenskins. I fought against the greenskins with Uncle Gelt in the Black Mountains. Not a comfortable ride.”

"Not necessarily, it depends on how you look at this problem. With the addition of gunpowder and artillery, you can feel the changes in war. The imperial army is increasingly emphasizing discipline and formation, rather than close combat and single combat, and can ignore the use of muskets. There are still many strong ones, but compared to the era of crossbows, the number is far less than before." Ryan nodded: "But that is another story, I will stop here today."

"Thank you, father. I enjoyed chatting with you." After the conversation, Frederick was very moved. The baron couldn't help but asked expectantly: "Will we have such an opportunity again in the future?"

"There will be, but unfortunately not too many." Ryan gently stretched out his hand to hold his eldest son's shoulder, and his father's eyes showed a loving look: "Frederick, listen, you must grow up as soon as possible. , due to my identity and various reasons, I can't always stay with you and your mother. You have to protect your territory and your mother like a man. This is your honor, and it is also your responsibility. .”

"I know..." Frederick looked nonchalant: "My mother told me the same thing. The whole Nuer respects their Baroness, but everyone also knows that Her Excellency the Baroness is not good at war. She rarely After leaving the Elector's Palace in Noor, she was a bastard during the war, responsible for standing at the rear and boosting morale. I understand, father, I understand."

"Compared with my affairs, Dad, you should comfort Mom more!" Frederick suddenly smiled evilly, and his son said meaningfully: "Usually, Mom always looks dissatisfied with desire, and only Dad can help. , otherwise my mother will be unhappy, and I will be the one who suffers!"

"You brat!" The King of Knights said that with Emilia's small body, he could arrange it in an hour or two!

However, at this moment, a strong throbbing feeling was felt by both father and son, and they subconsciously looked towards the east.

Something happened!

Beyond the Gray Mountains, across the vast borders of the Empire, across the peaks and valleys of the Roof Mountains of the World.

A hidden entrance to Blade's Edge Mountain.

An extremely large Chaos army is gathering here.

"It's right in front." The original demon prince Be'lak pointed maliciously at the first Chaos Altar in history. It was also the birthplace of the world's first demon prince - yes, it was the Chaos Altar when Be'lak was born. : "The Crown of Dominance is inside, but you must first pass the test of the true God."

"The Sword of Chaos! And the Xue army is ready!" Archaon signaled the army to start preparing around the mountains, and he himself strode into the altar of Chaos.

Archaon was tired of all this.

Everything bored Archaon.

enough.
