Now the volume of weapons he ordered was still too much for Alexander to consume by himself.
Never mind, he also had his own production, which too was churning out these out.
So why want so many?
Well, for one, he thought of selling some to his allies, Ptolomy and Pasha Farzah.
But more than that, Alexander hoped to send some of these to Iyizarid, as a way to egg them to attack Syabarsis.
He did not know if it would even remotely work, but hey, no harm in trying right?
But he did not reveal this to the two nobles.
Because well they had just been almost destroyed over false charges of colluding with Iyizarid.
So if Alexander were to honestly open up and say that he wanted to buy weapons they manufactured and then sell them to Iyizarid to encourage them to attack the duo's country, well then he doubted they would be very forthcoming in their delivery.
