Chapter 12 This Is an Enemy!
When the Zhenbei Army was doing its best to prepare for the battle, the Sac King's Army located in the north of the Murto Mountains was naturally not idle.
Prince Eric's intention to lead the Zhenbei Army to counterattack the Kingdom of Sark was not concealed at all, and naturally it was impossible to escape the eyes and ears of the Kingdom of Sark.
Although the Kingdom of Sark has always had an absolute advantage over the Kingdom of Lampari, the Kingdom of Sark still dare not underestimate the extremely rare counterattack of the Kingdom of Lampari this time.
Because this time Prince Eric has won the support of many nobles in the Kingdom of Lampari, and his strength is far superior to that of the Zhenbei Army that fought against the Sacred Wolf Army before, and at this time last year, the Zhenbei Army was fighting against The counterattack of the Murto Mountains showed unexpectedly strong combat effectiveness, and even forced the Sark Kingdom to abandon the Murto Mountains.
If this year's Zhenbei Army still has such a strong combat effectiveness, coupled with Prince Eric's strong logistical supply capability with the full support of many nobles, the Kingdom of Sark will definitely not be easy to resist.
However, for Sharon Li Nuer, head of the Greedy Wolf Legion, there is a piece of decisive good news.
That is, according to the information, because Xu Yi, the president of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, clearly expressed his attitude of supporting Princess Seweney more than a month ago, so in order to show that his position is different, Prince Eric voluntarily refused to buy from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Military magical machinery.
In the current Zhenbei Army, in addition to the batch of military magic machines purchased last year, there are only a few more Lampari King's troops to purchase from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Then force it into the military magic machinery of the Zhenbei Army.
The military department of the Kingdom of Lampari has always been very poor, and the king of the Kingdom of Lampari, Lampari XIII, has always been very naive about Prince Eric's counterattack, so the military department supported the Zhenbei Army There are not many military magic machines in this batch. It does not allow the combat effectiveness of the Zhenbei Army to obtain a real and valuable improvement.
The chief of Li Nur's army's biggest worry about the Zhenbei Army comes from these magical military magic machines, especially those powerful magic trebuchets, so he has not yet found a suitable countermeasure.
If this time Prince Eric, relying on the full support of those great nobles, equips the Zhenbei Army and other armies assembled by him with Qi army magic machines, Li Nuer doesn't even have the confidence to resist it at all.
"Haha, fortunately, this prince is an idiot, and he still has to talk about different positions during the war. It's almost self-defeating!" Li Nuer slapped the table with the map in front of him, and laughed loudly. "Wait until this idiot rushes over with those poor Zhenbei soldiers. Brothers, we must show them some color and avenge last year!"
The other officers of the Greedy Wolf Legion in the combat conference room cheered loudly at the same time.
Seeing the high morale of his colleagues, Li Nuer nodded with satisfaction.
Although he was taken by surprise by the Northern Army of the Kingdom of Lampari last year. Even lost the Murto Mountains.
But because of the long-term absolute advantage over the Lampari Kingdom, the Sak Kingdom, especially the soldiers of the Greedy Wolf Legion, always have a sense of superiority over the Lampari Kingdom.
Last year's failure, on the contrary, made everyone more motivated to fight, and vowed to wash away last year's shame in this battle.
After discussing the details of the defense with several staff members, Chief of Staff Ai Wei Joao opened the door and walked in.
A few of his bodyguards came in behind him.
Li Nuer's gaze was involuntarily attracted by the things held by Joao's bodyguard.
"What's this?" Li Nuer asked in astonishment, looking at the square, silvery thing in the guard's hand that looked like a box wrapped in iron.
"Good stuff." Joao smiled slightly. Commanded the guards to put the iron box on the iron shelf on one wall of the room, then took out a small, white rectangular box made of unknown material from his pocket, and asked Li Nuer Said: "Hey. Li Nuer, do you think the room is hot or cold now?"
Li Nuer was even more puzzled: "What do you want to do?"
"You'll know in a while." Joao shook the small white box in his hand. "Tell me first, do you feel hot or cold?"
Li Nuer frowned, looking at Joao inexplicably.
However, he has worked with Joao for many years, and even he is definitely not a foolish character, so he thought about it and pulled the corner of his jacket collar.
"There are too many people in the room. I feel a little stuffy, kind of hot."
"It's hot, isn't it?" Joao turned to look at the other people in the room. "What about you? Do you feel hot too?"
The others nodded in unison.
There are more than a dozen strong men crowded into this small room. Coupled with the fact that it was already early spring, the climate had already warmed up, which naturally made them feel a little hot.
"Okay, since it's hot, let's make it cooler. Let me see...how the refrigeration works..." Joao looked at the small rectangular white box in his hand for a while, and fiddled with it twice , then point it at the tin box hanging on the wall, and press lightly.
"Ding--"
There was a slight but crisp sound that sounded very pleasant, and a red light suddenly lit up on the iron box hanging on the wall, and then facing the crowd, the lower half of the iron box suddenly slowly flipped upwards, revealing A dark hole opened.
When everyone was wondering, a red ribbon hanging under the lifted iron sheet suddenly fluttered, as if being blown by the wind suddenly, and then everyone felt a cool breeze blowing towards their faces, and immediately moved The sweltering heat of the crowd dissipated a lot.
Feeling the soothing cool wind blowing from the bottom of the tin box, Li Nuer's heart moved, and he asked Joao: "Hey, Joao, this thing... Could it be that magical air conditioner? I remember the last time I was talking about It was mentioned in the report of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce."
"That's right, it's the magic air conditioner." Joao nodded with a smile. "How is it? Do you feel more comfortable?"
"It's a lot more comfortable. But where did you get this thing?" Li Nuer asked with a frown. "It's impossible for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to come to our Sark Kingdom to sell things?"
Joao glanced at him, but did not answer, but put away the long white box in his hand. His eyes flicked to the others in the room.
The others immediately understood what he meant, and after bowing to the two of them, they backed out.
Seeing Joao's actions, Li Nur frowned even more, and after everyone else left, he immediately asked, "What? Is there something wrong with the origin of this magical air conditioner?"
"Of course." John nodded. "If there is no problem, this is a thing from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. How could it appear here?"
"That's true..." Li Nuer came to his senses and thought about it. He asked again: "Then how did this thing come from? If I'm not wrong, it should be smuggled by those damn businessmen from the Lampari Kingdom?"
"It is indeed smuggled, but you can't look down on these merchants this time. Without their help, we would not be able to get such useful magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Don't you think this magic The air conditioner works really well?"
Li Nuer glanced at the magic air conditioner on the wall that was still blowing a cool breeze. Then look at the small white box that should be a remote control device that Joao put on the table, and shook his head: "It is easy to use, but these things are not particularly necessary for us. Instead, they are smuggled from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Isn't that just to let the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce make money? It's no good."
"What? Do you want to call on people in the whole kingdom to boycott the products of the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce?" Joao glanced at Li Nuer and sneered. "Let me tell you, this is impossible at all. President Walker who gave me this magic air conditioner told me that his batch of household magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce smuggled from the Kingdom of Lampali were fully advanced. It sold out in a month. He just needs to take those shipments back and make a fortune reselling them."
Li Nuer snorted heavily: "He only cares about making money for himself. Didn't he think that this is actually making money for the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce? If you want me to say it, he is a traitor to the enemy!"
Joao sighed and shook his head slowly: "Don't think so narrowly. In fact, we can also get a lot of benefits from this. Think about it, those military magic machines are produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. These Household magic machines are also produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. After obtaining these household magic machines, the old men of the Magic Court may be able to get some inspiration from these household magic machines. It is very helpful for them to develop military magic machines. help."
"What? Is this an arrangement of the military staff?" Li Nuer asked back.
"Yes." Joao nodded in confirmation. "In addition to buying a batch of goods from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce, the Magic Court can obtain some more direct research materials. You can also have more in-depth and direct contact with the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce through these transactions. What benefits can be obtained from this, do not need me You should understand, too?"
Li Nuer pondered for a moment. Nod slightly.
"Well, I can understand the staff and this arrangement. But according to what you said just now, there are a lot of people in the kingdom who want to buy these household magic machines from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. Don't they want the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce to buy them from them? Make a lot of money and leave? Doesn’t look good, does it?”
Joao shrugged: "No way, these things from the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are so easy to use. Don't mention them, even I am very tempted. By the way, I plan to ask Chairman Walker to bring some new products to our legion next time." Flying the magic machine from the Chamber of Commerce, I just don’t know if he can get it.”
Li Nuer was stunned: "What do we want those household magic machines for? No, I don't agree!"
"Don't veto it so quickly." Joao smiled and took out a piece of paper from his arms. "Look, here is an introduction to the functions of various magic machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce. You see, this magic air conditioner may not need to be assembled by the entire army, but this magic lamp, I think at least 10,000 units should be purchased? Because It is easy to switch on and off, no need to start a fire, and only needs a little magic crystal to last for a long time..."
"There is also this magic freezer. Summer is coming soon, and the logistics department of the military headquarters has to deliver all kinds of meat and vegetables to us in advance, and they have to be transported every once in a while. The cost and loss on the way alone are quite a lot. If there is this magic freezer, it can be stored for a longer period of time, and the transportation cost saved will be very considerable."
"Speaking of transportation, look at this magical cargo locomotive. It is said that one vehicle can carry several tons of goods, which is equivalent to several large cargo carriages. Moreover, this vehicle is much stronger and faster than horse-drawn carriages. If the logistics department uses this magic freight locomotive to transport, then we will no longer have to worry about logistics in the future. Of course, this thing is too big, even if it wants to smuggle it, it will not be easy."
"There is also this magic stove. I think this thing is necessary. Because it can be used as a stove directly without living. With the magic rice cooker, it will be countless times easier to make fire and cook in the future. Whether it is in the military camp or in the It’s very handy when you’re out in the field.”
"Of course, and this..."
...
Listening to Joao's introduction of each magic machine, although Li Nuer was still struggling with the idea of "this is an enemy", he was still involuntarily attracted by Joao's introduction.
Even he had to admit it.
These magical machines produced by the Xinfei Chamber of Commerce are so fucking easy to use! (to be continued)
