Chapter 211: Imperial Threat Theory
Chapter 207 – Imperial Threat Theory
Now the musket battalion using the musket is certainly not from the hand of Owen, can hand rub explosive gun he can not stand this kind of inferior work, in fact, this is the fourth level of the town center of the arsenal made of civilian musket, in addition to the regular musket soldier using the standard musket and elite use of fine musket, and even have artillery.
But no matter what kind of musket, the power is limited, even the artillery is the same.
But in the case of explosive guns can not be mass produced, Owen can only choose to use these primitive firearms.
Of course, Owen is not unable to manufacture weapons from World War I and World War II, after all, those things used by the Goblin Mechanical Corps can not be considered to be of low technical content, only that he really wants to do so need to face too many problems.
Guns can still rely on a simple production line and elf hand polishing, but not bullets, it is difficult to build a bullet production line in a short period of time, and the firing charge is not qualified.
The firing charge used now is made of ground powder of magic horn tree, this kind of efficient fuel can also burn fiercely instead of firing charge, but it inevitably carries impurities, the musket is not sensitive to this, and it can make a dozen or twenty shots.
Higher precision firearms will not be able to shoot fast, I’m afraid that a magazine is not finished to blow up.
These problems can be solved, at best, with as much time, the biggest problem is the empire.
The empire is not that simple, Owen got a lot of benefits from taking down a relic, you have to say that the empire doesn’t have a few relics in its hands and a few cards, he doesn’t believe it.
Even without these, the Empire’s legendary mages are not vegetarian, each destructive power is comparable to a strategic bomber, really messed with, minutes to level his territory.
So the musket can be used, but must not pose too much of a threat, at least not so that the empire thinks it is a threat.
All day long worry about this and that, Owen also annoyed, he did not not consider the possibility of violent leveling, the empire so big a pile of squatting next to the bed, he can not sleep peacefully.
But even if he raises the town center to the fifth level, the population limit is only 100,000, even if he disregards the problems of production and logistics, half of them will be converted into soldiers, equipped with muskets and artillery, and then train a group of elites to use World War II-era weapons and tanks, and there are extreme warriors and witches in the king, it’s still not enough, at best, to fight the imperial border troops, and can’t hurt the empire at all.
Because from the intelligence collected on weekdays, the population of the empire is around 50 million to 100 million, or even more, so even if he has wiped out hundreds of thousands of imperial border troops, so what.
What’s more, the Imperial Border Army is not made of clay, there are countless high walls and majestic passes, so it’s that easy to fight.
Moreover, he can’t afford to consume them, how many people are in the entire Northland, and how many adult males are suitable to be trained as soldiers?
To put it in a bigger way, 70,000 to 80,000 would be enough, the empire can consume him to death just by fighting for consumption.
In addition, he has guns and cannons, the empire also has transcendent, formed fighting qi knights, the royal mage association, there are also legends sitting in the town, if you really want to destroy him, minus the time wasted on the road, it will take less than a meal of effort.
This is not counting the religions that worship the gods, otherwise the death would be even faster.
In this case, even if Owen is hanging on, he can’t carry it, so he dared to wave, do what we have to be careful, even if you want to use firearms is a little bit of trial and error, for fear of touching the sensitive nerves of the empire.
Really want to let go of the wave, Owen summarized, he at least have more than one million people, 100,000 regular army, 200,000 reserve army, two digits of the legend, a powerful religion and a real deity, so that the empire will be afraid, do not dare to go to war easily.
Therefore, Owen still has a long way to go.
While Owen was busy preparing for the future, a group of restless guys were busy training in the newly built musket battalion. Howard cracked the whip, a bunch of pricks can only endure even if they don’t obey, because they have tried, is really can’t fight, so in order to suffer less from flesh and blood, it’s better to obey.
“Hello, I’m Charlie, third degree Sir.” As the administrator Charlie didn’t need to carry a musket and crawl around, at this time he took the initiative to greet the tall and strong knight next to him.
“Monk, second degree knight.” Monk’s bald head without eyebrows, lion nose and tiger mouth, ugly looking, but exudes strong androgynous charisma, especially the strong body that can hold up the plate armor all creaking and rattling, making people doubt his pedigree.
Although Monk is a bit quiet, but Charlie can speak well, plus the two will be working together for a long time, both intend to make friends, so they will soon become familiar with each other.
Monk is a knight origin, but although his strength is not bad, but ugly looks, resulting in not being liked by the nobles, and even become the object of ridicule, and finally because of a small matter, directly swept him out of the door, which is simply a strange shame for the knight.
As a knight, can’t get that bastard nobleman dead Monk shamelessly continue to stay where, so he came to the Northland, and joined the military cantonment, as long as he can make enough merit, he can become a real enrolled knight, and this is exactly what he dreamed of.
Unfortunately, although his strength is good, but other aspects are insufficient, so the evaluation is only the second level knight, unable to dominate the military canton.
Although Charlie’s strength was average, he was articulate and calculating, suitable for presiding over the military canton, plus the temporary status was above him, so Monk consciously put himself in the position of deputy.
After noticing this, Charlie secretly sighed with relief, at least in the future he does not need to put too much energy on the hook.
The two men didn’t have long to spare, and after Howard left the training to his own son, he began giving them lessons.
In fact, Howard is also a duck on the shelf, he is not no contact with firearms, thanks to the Imperial Frontier Army in the time of what hard work have done, so the third line of gun fodder equipped with muskets he also led, the problem is that he can not see those who will only take the gun to let off a sound to frighten the people of the miscellaneous soldiers, so the understanding of the limited.
After getting some information from where the lord lord, he read hard all night long, but in the end, how, in his heart, there is no number, but he can’t show his heart, he can only harden his heart and say it according to what is written in the book.
“You want to go to the military cantonment.” Maya put down the busy affairs today to take a little time to face a young girl, intending to relax, did not expect the other party came up to give himself a surprising answer.
The blonde girl in front of her was not very old, but her tall figure was concave and convex, showing the vitality belonging to young people, so that Maya, who was already in her forties, could not help but sigh that she was already old.
Of course, just sighing, after obtaining the inhuman bloodline, Maya’s life expectancy is feared to be measured in hundreds of years, after another fifty years she is still like this, the other party is afraid that there will be two pockets left in the chest, sitting on the sofa are buttocks.
Returning to her senses, Maya bowed her head and pondered, for the other party was no ordinary citizen to be dismissed at will.
The young girl is called Kayla, is the eldest daughter of Baron Kerens, this year has just come of age, since childhood do not love the red makeup love armed, hard training in swordsmanship, and want to be a knight who serves the Lord.
Unfortunately, her father would not let her, and was determined to send her to Lord Lord’s castle as a maid.
Now that her father is in the town of Mara, and she has come of age, her heart began to stir, and she ran to the town center to introduce herself.
