Just like the sword of Damocles hanging over his head, the shadow of the magic empire is always lingering on
Chris' head.
As long as the conflict with the Arante Empire is won, it will alarm the Magic Empire. Chris really doesn't want
to conflict with the Magic Empire. At least until he reserves enough power, he doesn't want to expose his
strength in front of the Magic Empire.
If possible, he really wants to make some long-range bomber first, make an atomic bomb, and then go to
trouble with the magic empire, but this is not an achievable strategy.
All industries need to be piled up and built up before they can finally rise. The evil path similar to Chris's
previous artillery manufacturing cannon cannot actually be developed for a long time.
Fortunately, he met Desaier and Gurlo, which allowed him to correct his development model and have an
industrial system that can barely support the economy.
And this set of industrial development system that is already on the right track has just sprouted, and it burst
out with amazing power. All kinds of industrial products were manufactured and filled people's lives. In just
one year, the civilian life of Ailan Hill had undergone earth-shaking changes.
With soap bathing, people's personal hygiene has been significantly improved, the disease rate has begun to
decline, and the population has begun to explode. More newborns have survived this year than in the past
three years.
In the same way, a lot of cheap cloth has become a lot of cheap clothes: clothing in this world has never been
cheaper than it is today. Garment factories set up in various places even directly turn fabrics into numbered
finished clothes and sell them directly to civilians.
Clothes of the same style are very popular because they are really cheap and save time. As long as you go
back and make a little change, you can wear it well.
Moreover, everyone wears the same clothes, which weakens the so-called distinction between high and low.
People with similar incomes wear similar clothes as they did in the 1960s and 1970s, gray and black, almost
printed with Ailan Hill. Of all cities.
Management matters have also begun to become detailed and rude. All cities and villages in Ailanghir must fly
the king flag of Ailanghir, and the flag of the black and white eagle is hung on the flagpole of the city wall and
the fort against the wind. Flutter.
With the rapid establishment of factories, villages and towns quickly became cities, and countless idle
agricultural populations poured into Desaier's factories and began to engage in simple production tasks.
No one has ever thought that such a scene will appear in their lifetime: countless children, women and even
have jobs, and every family is madly accumulating their own wealth. But their wealth, because of the need to
improve their lives, once again rushed back into the treasury of Ailan Hill.
Improving living conditions requires cement to build new and strong houses, and new houses require metal
and ceramic utensils. In order to hold these utensils, brand new furniture is needed. Then the family sits at
home and thinks of the education of their children.
Just like New China in a certain period of time, people who got rich began to think about more and more
things. People in no era are stupid, they are simply restricted by reality and cannot see further.
Once they see hope, they will chase the light continuously, even if it is a fiery flame, they will pounce on it
without hesitation, just for the illusory future.
The good news for the ordinary people of Ailan Hill is that the future Chris gave them is a proven, extremely
powerful and correct future.
After Chris captured Hanhai, he only stayed for a few days before returning to Serris. After all, this is his root
and the industrial core that radiates all areas around him. Because the degree of industrialization is the highest
here, the support of the people is also the highest, and Chris's dominance is the strongest.
After sweeping five territories all the way, Chris actually faced a lot of problems. He lacked the officials to
manage these territories, and he couldn't promote the officials of Seris City by favoritism. He could only use
some local bureaucrats and let them manage temporarily to see the aftereffects.
The advantage of this is that the stability of the region is maintained, and the bad news is not without it. Some
government officials who are rotten to the root are still delaying the development of the region, making Chris'
industrial advancement plan slow.
Entering the territory of Seris, Chris became more comfortable looking at the chimneys that had risen so high.
Riding on his horse, he turned his head to the side and said to Desaier: "It's obviously not enough to rely on
infantry against the Mage Corps."
He looked at each other, while pulling the reins to make the horse slowly move forward, while continuing to
say: "We have artillery and rifles on the ground. We have the strongest firepower...but we don't have
weapons to defend against the dragon knight."
If described in modern tactical terms, Chris's force is strongest in ground-to-ground combat, and ground-toair is basically a blank state: "If you encounter a magical army on the ground, I don't know if it is composed of
rifles and artillery. Can the defense line be countered, but if you encounter a dragon... the troops in our hands
will suffer."
Desaier was a little embarrassed and answered Chris' question: "Your Majesty, in fact...we don't know much
about the Mages Legion of the Magic Empire. The record is very vague, and only some historical materials
contain a few words."
"In the war between the Magic Empire and our mortal empire, dragon knights and some warcraft cavalry are
usually dispatched. So we know more about dragon knights and warcraft cavalry, and there are even some
ways to fight." Desaiel said to himself I said everything I knew.
He looked at Chris and explained in detail: "In general, to fight the Dragon Knights, you have to prepare more
ballistas... But this is only a very reluctant way, because very few troops can resist the sky and the
underground. Attack at the same time."
"Warcraft cavalry has thicker armor and higher combat effectiveness than ordinary cavalry, so it is difficult to
stop. The opponent's charge can easily penetrate the defense line of traditional infantry." After all, Desaier had
an "anti-magical empire thought" early on. The mortal, he knows very detailed information.
"Tanks with bombers..." After hearing Desaier's description, Chris covered his face and gave an evaluation that
was in line with his knowledge. No wonder the magic empire can crush mortal civilization for thousands of
years, and let mortal civilization stagnate in the fragile age of cold weapons.
If the earth allowed a civilization to produce terrible war machines such as tanks and bombers in 1627, it
would not be difficult to bring all the surrounding civilizations back to the barbaric era.
"There is a question I have always wanted to ask." Chris ignored the doubts on Dessier's face, nor did he
explain what tanks and airplanes are, but instead asked about a topic of interest to him.
"What's the problem?" Hearing Chris' question, Desaiel was very curious, and looked at Chris next to him:
"Your Majesty?"
"Why we have rarely seen advanced wild monsters living in the jungle or deep mountains until now." Chris
asked suspiciously.
"I can tell you this question. It's actually very simple. Just like a magician, the more advanced the beast is, the
higher the affinity for magic elements... These creatures with advanced intelligence are also willing to live in
places with strong magical aura. ." Desaier studied a lot of things about the magic empire, so the answer came
out openly.
"This is no wonder, so mortals can survive in this world, because we can only occupy the places that
magicians and monsters can't see." Chris sneered.
He paused, and then asked again: "If this is the case, is it possible for us to find some wild monsters to
experiment with our weapons and equipment?"
It can be said that the well-informed Desaier shook his head and replied: "As far as I know, even in the Holy
Demon Empire, a wild powerful beast is very expensive and dangerous. And they will not sell one. Give only
Warcraft to mortals, this is their pride."
"Is it proud...ha!" Chris smiled self-deprecatingly: "I believe that soon they will put down their pride,
condescend to come to us, and have a chat with us on an equal footing!"
Desaier nodded and said, "I also believe that this day will come soon! My Majesty! I have been reading various
ancient books, including various documents more than 1,000 years ago... Many mortals have been carefully
prepared to kill Past the dragon."
Having said that, he looked at Chris and said: "Since these dragons can be killed by swords, they can be killed
by artillery shells! I have no doubt about this! As long as we equip enough With modern weapons, we can
challenge these **** beasts!"
"This is the most optimistic estimate. We have to prepare for the worst..." Chris was very worried and said:
"So we have to prepare more powerful weapons until we are absolutely sure of winning!"
"What are your plans?" Dessell looked at Chris with a look of surprise, and asked: "What more advanced
weapons come out?"
"Yes! We can't just be passively beaten, we have to fight back! We not only have to defend against their
attacks, we have to attack them in their territory!" Chris clenched his fists and said to Desaier.
Chris' idea is actually very simple: Since he can't make any advanced technical weapons such as tanks and
airplanes in a short time, he should concentrate on building anti-tank guns and anti-aircraft guns!
