Chapter 118: Payment
As a soldier, of course, he hopes to make meritorious deeds to open up territory for the country, so it is not surprising that they have moved with such evil thoughts. If an army is not thinking about defeating the enemy, then it is really dangerous.
But in fact, in Ailan Hill, it's not just the military bosses and countless businessmen who have been moved by evil thoughts are complaining that their products are not selling well, even if they are actually working overtime to produce.
Everyone knows that once a war starts, the total amount of products the country needs will be more, and they will make money faster. Under such preconditions, no one does not expect a new war to come.
Newspapers, as a brand-new way of spreading news of Allan Hill, have begun to gain roots in the hearts of the people. The biggest newspaper magnate, the Allan Hill Daily, is advocating the benefits of war for the entire empire on the front page every day.
In the eyes of those who propagate war, war is a cure for all diseases. As long as the empire chooses to expand abroad, all internal contradictions can be resolved. As long as one victory is followed by one victory, Ailan Hill can definitely hit the end of the world.
"War! The capital of Ararat is close at hand, let the Arante Empire become history! We can hit the Fallen River in one breath, we can hit the Southern Mountains in one breath, and we can hit the Dothan Empire in one breath. go with!"
"Do you know how many iron ore mines are in Arrant? Do you know that they also have oil? One war, we can solve many problems!"
"Still worrying about the rubber rationing system? Are you still worried that you can't produce more products? As long as our army enters the Dothan Empire, there will be as much rubber as we need!"
It's hard to imagine how people feel like watching the shouts promoted in these daily newspapers every day. Everyone is looking forward to raising wages, and everyone is looking forward to the country's acquisition of more strategic resources to build Alan Hill better.
It is true that Ailan Hill has also become better. A railway connecting the Hanhai and the ferry has been built here. The whole country has established a radio communication network. The price of telegraphs has become close to the people. The people travel far away from their homes to other cities. Work has also become a routine thing.
The port of Ferry City is getting bigger and bigger, and more and more ships are anchored there. Ships return to the port almost every day, bringing large amounts of rubber and oil. The Dothan Empire also produces kerosene, but their output is not much.
However, even if there was only a small amount of kerosene, it was raided by General Lawnes, stored and transported to Ailan Hill. Although it has no land border with Ailan Hill, the brutality of the lovely Lan Hill has spread far and wide in the Dothan Empire.
On the third day when the tank started mass production, Chris welcomed a familiar guest in his office, the special envoy from the Holy Demon Empire, Mr. Bakaroff, the Archon of the Eastern Province.
The other party didn’t say any greetings when they met, and directly listed the list of their purchases this time. There was a large list of weapons and equipment that the Holy Demon Empire wanted to purchase, as well as the equipment to produce these weapons and equipment...
"Mauser rifle production line... and you need 3 for one mouth?" Chris saw the purchase request of the first Holy Demon Empire, so he raised his head and looked at Bakaroff: "You are going to be with others. The rhythm of a full-scale war."
"Indeed, we are fighting the Norma Empire. The fighting on the southern front is very tragic, so we need to replenish a lot of arms." Bakaroff did not hide the war, because the fool also knew that he purchased so many arms. , Definitely not for fun.
This time, the Saint Demon Empire underestimated the confidence of the Norma Empire. The opponent seemed to have some support from the empires in the high demon area, and the number of magicians was much more than that of the Saint Demon Empire. The chief consul on the front line was caught in a bitter battle, and the two sides continued to invest their troops on the front line and remained deadlocked.
Due to the huge consumption of the war, the holy demon empire’s hoard of Alanhir ammunition has also been exhausted, and the previously accumulated advantages have disappeared. Naturally, he can only pinch his nose and give up the idea of finding Alanhill trouble. , And began to purchase more arms to ensure victory on the other side of the border.
After all, the Holy Demon Empire has entered the territory of the Norma Empire and gained control of several cities. This allows them to taste the sweetness of victory, and naturally they will not easily give up such a good opportunity.
Such a huge arms procurement proposal could not be concealed by Bakaroff if he wanted to conceal it, so the clever governor of the Eastern Province simply said bluntly, hoping to use honesty to open the gap on Chris' side.
Chris returned his gaze to the paper that Bakaroff gave him, and continued to look down: "Rifles cost 10,000, heavy machine guns 300, 30 mm anti-aircraft guns require 200... ammunition, more ammunition. 3 million rounds..."
"You also want 200 howitzers with 130mm caliber and 100,000 rounds. You also need to introduce a production line for machine guns, anti-aircraft guns, and howitzers..." Chris read sentence by sentence, reading the content to the people around him.
At the conference table, the ministers on Ailan Hill’s side listened to the contents of this list, either with shocked expressions on their faces or with joyful faces on such a purchasing list, except for the naked swearing oath. In addition to the ambition of the Devil Empire, it also means an income beyond imagination.
The Holy Demon Empire purchased tens of thousands of rifles from Ailan Hill and ordered a production line. The imported 130mm caliber howitzer is not only expensive, but also the shells are not cheap.
Confidential internal documents provided by the industry department to Chris show that the profit created by a 130mm caliber howitzer exported to the Holy Demon Empire is enough to equip Ailan Hill with three 105mm caliber howitzers. If you count the income of shells, the cost of forming an artillery regiment of the Holy Demon Empire is enough for Chris to form an artillery division.
What's more, this time the Saint Demon Empire wants not only weapons, but also the equipment for producing these weapons. The prices of these equipment can't be calculated at the cost, and they are sold at a better price. This is basically a certainty. Thing up.
"You really dare to speak. This is a big order. You will have to pay a lot of money for these weapons and ammunition at the price we agreed before." Chris put down the paper in his hand and leaned back on the chair to look at Bakarov: "After all, so many weapons..."
"We know the price is very expensive, so when I came here, I already brought the purchase price for this batch of weapons." Bakaroff said very easily.
…
"Huh!" A huge fire dragon slapped its meaty wings, and used its sharp claws to buckle on the fragile walls of the city wall like gravel. The violent wind that it set off caused the soldiers above the city to stagger, and they couldn't open their eyes to look up at this fierce monster.
The soldiers who had been frightened for a long time stumbled and fled to the city. They didn't have the courage to face such a giant beast. After all, in this mortal land, the giant dragon cannibalize people.
The country will not go to war with the Holy Demon Empire for the lives of a few people. At most, it will just give some pensions hastily. Under such a premise, who would dare to stop the dragon's flames? What's more, this is not a problem with a giant dragon right now.
A hundred dragons landed on the edge of the city. Some dragons lay on the wasteland outside the city wall, and some lay directly on the top of the city. All the domestic animals shivered under the dragon. The whole city was surrounded by the fear of death. .
"Wow, wow." Accompanied by the sound of the nice armor pieces colliding with each other, the dragon knights, who radiated magical brilliance from their swords, passed through the empty streets with majestic strength.
They walked straight to the magnificent palace, then crossed the outer wall of the palace without any hindrance, and walked into the palace of Alanticus with panic eyes everywhere.
"My lord... my lord..." A minister of the Arrant Empire who drove out to receive the reception bowed humbly, and dared not lift his head to follow the line of dragon knights, and asked flatly, "Sudden visit... For what?"
"We are here to take over the Arante Empire!" The leading knight commander walked forward without squinting, and his arm beat the white cloak behind him with the frequency of his footsteps. There are still some blood stains on his cloak, after all, he was temporarily transferred back from the southern front.
He had just experienced the arduous war on the southern front and saw hundreds of dragons fighting in the sky with his own eyes. Being able to lead his subordinates to withdraw from such a terrifying battlefield to perform the mission of the mortal empire, he felt that the **** of magic was watching him.
"Take it, take it?" The minister stood there in fright, unable to even take care of humility, and suddenly raised his head to look at the dragon knight team that had passed in front of him. The two dragon knights walking at the back still held a folded flag in their hands, which was dark and unreal.
"On the order of the Grand Archon Maxwell! All the existing territories of the Arrant Empire belong to Allan Hill... Please abdicate the Emperor of Arrant Empire, Your Majesty Arant Hook!" Just entered the palace hall , Seeing the man on the throne, the great knight commander from the Holy Demon Empire announced loudly.
"What? What nonsense are you talking about?" Emperor Hook suddenly stood up from his throne, a voice full of fear echoing in the empty hall: "Your Holy Demon Empire, don't deceive people too much!"
"Come here! Kill these guys on the spot!" The sullen-looking Prime Minister Clark suddenly shouted, and the guards that had been arranged around the hall rushed forward and surrounded the Saint Demon Empire Dragon Knights with only a few dozen people. force.
