Chapter 86: Uncelebrated victory

"Your Majesty, you should lead a regiment to return to Serris immediately! With our troops in the south, it should be enough to deal with the counterattack of the Holy Demon Empire." Wilkes suggested: "If their counterattack intensity is about the same as it is now. ."

"It can't be almost less. If the opponent still only mobilizes such a small amount of troops, then the commander's mind is flooded." Chris shook his head and said: "The most likely route the opponent chooses is from the Higgs Kingdom. Attack Serris directly."

"We can't base our victory on the premise that the opposing commander's mind is flooded. We must be fully prepared. Only in this way can we ensure that we will not suffer in any direction!" Chris said here, looking towards Wilkes.

"The first six divisions we formed have already entered Arrant. The rear defense is only the teaching group and the 7th and 8th divisions... This is indeed very dangerous." Wilkes looked at the map and said: "So the first It is necessary for the 1st division to return to Seris."

"Actually, we have gone south for so many days. The 9th and 10th divisions on Serris's side should have been formed. Their weapons should also be complete." Chris counted the time and said to Wilkes: " I led the 1st Division to the north, and then ordered the 10th Division to go south to help you stabilize the line of defense."

"There is no need to let the troops go south. We still have General Wagron's 2nd Division as a reserve team, and at least ten garrison regiments as reserves and reinforcements. It is powerful for a battle." Wilkes shook his head. At this moment, the door of the room was pushed open from the outside.

"Your Majesty! Cisse, the commander of the Prairie Empire, wants to meet." An officer walked in and reported the news that the commander of the Prairie Cavalry had asked to see Chris: "They said they would return to the Prairie Empire. They wanted to see you before returning. one side."

"Are they so eager to talk to us about compensation? I know they suffered a heavy loss this time. Almost one-fifth of their troops were wiped out by the dragon knight..." Chris smiled bitterly and shook it. Shake your head.

"I think, as an ally, it would be better for you to meet these cavalry from the grasslands. At least, we need to know how much money they want." Wilkes began to persuade Chris.

"Okay! I'll see them, let General Cisse come in, I'll wait for him here." Chris ordered helplessly.

Bourgeois walked out, and soon a middle-aged officer in traditional armor followed him in. He had the traditional hairstyle of the prairie empire, and his beard was not neatly repaired underneath.

He walked in front of Chris, then suddenly knelt down on one knee, bowed his head and performed the most noble meeting ceremony of a prairie man: "Your Majesty the Great Emperor Allanhill! Your most loyal friend Cisse on the prairie salutes you! "

"..." Bewildered by the scene before him, it took Chris for a long time to realize that the other party was showing his respect to him, and then he said: "General Cisse, please! I can get your friendship. I am very happy."

He paused for a while, and waited for the other person to stand up before he continued: "But you seem to be calling me wrong. I am not the emperor of Ailan Hill, I am still just the Grand Duke."

"Your Majesty! I saw the results of your battle with my own eyes. Now there are still the corpse of the giant horse and the broken magic armor in the wilderness. You can defeat the army of the Holy Demon Empire, and you are already the greatest monarch of the Mortal Empire!" After Cisse stood up, he explained to Chris.

He looked at Chris as if he was looking at his most admired idol: "I have completed my mission and will return to the grassland with my troops tomorrow. Every warrior on the grassland will remember your greatness and generosity! "

"Your trade has changed the barren status of the prairie empire, so that we no longer need to rely on looting to feed our children, so everyone on the prairie will be your friend!" After saying this, Cisse Nodded in greeting, then respectfully exited Chris' room.

Chris looked at Wilkes next to him and shrugged: "I thought he was here to ask me for a commission."

"As time goes by, you will see how far-reaching the impact of Maritza’s battle is." Wilkes said to Chris: "There will be countless people fighting for you, pray for you... How long will you get everything you could not even think of before."

"I hope so!" Chris felt that this matter could be used for a while. After thinking about it, he looked at Bourgeois and said: "Since this battle will have such a huge influence, then we should use it. "

"I announce that the city of Maricha has officially changed its name to Fallen Dragon City! This is a great city where countless dragons fall!" Chris smiled and said: "I want people all over the world to know that there used to be one here. A great army, a mortal army that can defeat a magic army!"

Bourgeois felt that his hair was erected, and his battles would go down in history because of this change of name, and Fallen Dragon City would become a "sacred place" in the minds of mortals because of defeating the magic empire.

"The other thing is that starting today, all attacks will be stopped, and the line of defense must be contracted as much as possible. This is what all troops must do!" Chris continued to order after announcing that Maricha had changed its name to Falling Dragon City. Tao.

The Ailan Hill troops headed south, the large amount of ammunition carried was almost used, and many troops were waiting for supplies brought in from the rear. And these supplies can only supplement their ammunition consumption, and cannot support Chris to expand the war again.

The shortcomings of logistical supplies have always existed, and the pressure of rear production is indeed a headache. With more and more new weapons, the output of ammunition will naturally increase.

With the popularity of revolvers, the demand for pistol bullets is increasing. Because of the intention to promote submachine guns, the production of pistol bullets has been expanding, which also takes up a lot of raw materials.

At the same time, the number of rifles produced is also increased. The Mauser 98k rifle now needs to be equipped with ten times the number of troops before. Almost all infantry regiments need the Mauser 98k rifle, and the weapons used for training need to be supplemented.

Some of the new weapons were even exported. About 1,000 Mauser rifles that were replaced due to training wear were exported to the steppe empire. The cattle and sheep in exchange for these new weapons have allowed Ailan Hill’s canned meat factory to start producing its own canned beef and mutton at full speed.

Supplying 200,000 or more troops is not an easy task, and the supply of weapons, equipment and materials is very delicate and meticulous. No matter what kind of weapon is now, it is very important to Allan Hill soldiers.

Machine gun carriages are urgently needed by every unit, and the weapons produced are basically distributed to the newly formed units in situ. Although the machine gun production line has expanded its production capacity after expansion, this weapon is still in short supply.

With the rapid increase in the number of machine guns and rifles, the supply of bullets went wrong again. Dozens of bullet factories are now producing around the clock, and still cannot meet the front-line consumption and training needs.

What is even more depressing is that with the continuous expansion of production, there is a shortage of raw materials. Because of the rapid construction of railways, the demand for steel is also constantly expanding. Now the steel production capacity of Ailan Hill has begun again. Stretched out.

The raw material copper reserves are infinitely close to zero. Even if the copper mines in the Prairie Empire and Tubao are desperately supplied, they still cannot meet the needs of production. Synthetic rubber can only barely be maintained. There are too many types of raw materials required by industrial civilization, and there are so many that people always lose sight of one another.

This is the victory of the war, which brings infinite benefits, otherwise the economy of Ailan Hill will collapse on its own, without the need for others to do it.

In addition, because of the constraints of transportation capacity, the materials at the rear are piled up like a mountain, but the materials at the front line have been insufficient. The exhaustion on the road makes people laugh and cry, and to transport a cart of ammunition to the front line, there is still another cart of fodder...

"Next time, our war cannot be fought like this! We are going to open new factories in Naaru, Fallen Dragon City, and Wallavo, to increase production capacity... and to lay more railways to save transportation links. Consumption!" Chris summed up a few words angrily, and then ended such a winning summary meeting.

On the same day, he left Falling Dragon City with 1 regiment and returned to Seris. Without the excitement of defeating the magic empire, nor the joy of winning the war, he was so worried and embarked on the road home.

On the other side, the three giant dragons landed outside a magnificent castle. Knight Commander Ildo turned over and jumped off the dragon's back and walked quickly into the castle gate. On both sides of the huge wooden door, the guards looked strangely at Irdo, who was a little embarrassed, and wondered why he looked like this.

Irdo ignored their gazes, and went straight to the gate of the Archon Joseph Bakarov. Without taking care of his clothes, he pushed open the huge door.

"My lord! The frontline news that General Moss ordered me to send!" Hildo walked up to Joseph Bakarov, knelt on one knee, held up the letter from General Moss, and reported it loudly.

"Why are you so embarrassed?" Putting the young dragon on his arm to his feet, Joseph Bakarov stood up, walked to the front of Ildo, took the letter from his hand, and read it. With a glance at Ildo, who was covered in dust, he asked with majesty.

"Mortals have developed new weapons... My dragon knight has suffered a heavy loss..." Eldor dared not hide it, and started talking about his loss: "25 dragon knights, I only brought back 3 people."
