Chapter 477: : Noble interests

This world has gunpowder, which is a kind of magic potion. However, the rules of the world are different. If you want to stabilize the properties of gunpowder, the price will be too high.
The manufacture of magic potions cannot be industrialized, and no one wants to develop such firearms.
The goblin musket is a pinnacle. This time, Metatron caught many alien invaders. After researching technology weapons, the launching agent was improved, and the cost was reduced.
However, it is not free. This metal bullet is difficult to attach magical attributes and can only be a substitute for bows and arrows.
And the powerful archer, the feathers and arrows he shoots have attributes, and the lethality is greater than this projectile. I do n’t know how many times. However, such a weapon must also have his value. This rudimentary firearm is for warriors and can be used without a magician.
"The potion is fairly stable, the bullet has no magic-breaking effect, and it can't add space attributes. One magazine can hold 33 projectiles, and it needs to be replaced manually after it is shot. The rate of fire is faster, one shot per second. "
Moto also knew about the invasion of the outside world, and knew the ins and outs of this firearm. He thought about it carefully and found that the value of this thing was higher than that of the bow and arrow, and he could control the cost. There was no need to train the archer in the future.
"It can save soldiers' physical strength, but if both sides are equipped, they will eventually watch the melee, which is all spent on fighting."
Xia Hexin said that things like melee can only be used as entertainment in Shenzhou, although everyone loves to play. When there is a need for melee combat, there are robots.
But Moto's words still make sense in this world, and not everyone can afford to build war figures.
A hundred demonized war horses were allocated on Xiahe's side, and the rest were riding on Trojan horses. Because the Trojans are too rudimentary, this team looks ridiculous.
The soldiers have no problem, the Trojan horse is stable, and it can also hang a lot of supply equipment. If it is not impossible to use it to charge, it is simply the perfect thing.
Starting from the west gate of the camp, Xiahe's team took the road. Yesterday's battle killed a lot of half-elves, but half-elves seemed to be inexhaustible, and they carried out many harassment attacks at night. As soon as Xiahe's team came out, more than a hundred and a half elves rushed from a distance.
On the tower in the camp, the sound of magic guns sounded and each one was killed by name.
Freya is not happy, she is too far away from the half-elves, it is not easy to rush to harvest the soul. This kind of thing is done secretly on the battlefield. No one can tell. If you do it specifically, it will cause doubts sooner or later.
Two hundred imperial warriors, twenty magicians, sixteen mercenary warriors, five mercenary mages, plus Xiahe Freya and Moto, a total of 388 people. The number of half-elves didn't even reach this half. Before they reached the 100-meter range, they were shot cleanly.
In Xiahe's team, Freya took twenty people to collect the loot and placed it on an empty wooden horse.
Skins were hung on both sides of the back of the Trojan. After simply tidying up the battlefield, Xiahe ignored the corpses. The camp was behind. The people in the camp naturally dragged all the corpses away.
After reading this record, Moto couldn't help but ask: "Count, how much does your magic gun cost?"
"It is similar to that made by the Empire. The material requirements are not high, and the requirements for refining techniques are not low. If the alchemy factory should be able to produce them."
Moto was a little disappointed. If the cost of the empire's test product was about the same, there was no hope of large-scale equipment for this thing.
Xiahe did not think so much. The development of the Shenzhou Empire was much more mature than this world. Now that the guns of the empire have come to an end, all kinds of energy armor are single soldiers. The empire trains the army purely to ensure the evolution of humanity. That's it.
It is still too early for this world to develop to the extent of Shenzhou.
The initial magic gun is only, if let Freya design armor, the armor for this long-range weapon will make the low-level magic gun useless.
The advantages of weapons and wisdom allow Xiahe this team to face a half-elf attack of less than a thousand.
The Trojan started to accelerate and ran fast on the road.
"Can it be faster?" Modu was a little worried, and his deer were urging. At this speed, it would take night to reach the camp of Her Royal Highness without rest.
"Moto, we walked the road, it was detoured, but going directly through the forest, it would be more attacked, the speed would be slower, can you understand?"
"Yes." Modu was sulking and he was not a soldier.
"The speed I keep is the best speed. If it speeds up, after eight hours, we have to stop and deliver the magic power to the Trojan. Then the magician is better to meditate for another hour to maintain the best fighting state."
"I get it, just follow the earl's meaning." Modu looked cold.
Xiahe stopped the mount and raised his hand to signal, and the whole team stopped.
"General Moto, let me ask you, what is meant by me? Are you dissatisfied with me?"
"Of course I am dissatisfied. As an imperial nobleman, your majesty's courtiers let you rescue your high princess. You push three obstacles and refuse to go without compensation. What is the reason?
Xia He smiled and said, "Are you reasoning with me?"
"Yes, all I want to talk about is truth."
"The empire's law stipulates that the nobles should contribute to the princess?"
"Donate to a net worth?"
"Can the general take out millions of gold coins?"
"No."
"In order to hurry, I consumed a reel-sequence transmitter. The price under the cost is calculated to you, and there are 164,000 gold coins. Two are 328,000 gold coins. Take out and sell, how much do you say Money? There are more than three hundred Trojan horses, each one has a magic gun, and my own two hundred demonized war horses have also contributed. How much do you say these are worth? "
Moto couldn't refute, Xiahe sneered, "How many gold coins have you contributed to the empire, General Moto?"
"The armor equipment on these people was originally prepared for my own troops, because there was a problem with the empire's attack plan, and a large number of half-elves were contaminated by divinity. I took it out and distributed it to them. You think I want to compensate Is it wrong? "
"It's not the count's fault, it's because I don't understand." Moto's face was blue, but he immediately admitted it wrong.
"Your Imperial Legion, of course, thinks about dedicating everything. I understand it well. But after you retire, the country has the rewards of knighthood and merit, and there is land to be divided, and there are official positions to take. What about our powerful nobles? You have to bring soldiers to fight, no choice. "
"I don't understand." Moto continued to admit his mistake.
"I hope that Her Royal Highness will have enough money to make up for my losses. I even lost my students, hehe ..." Xia He finished, and raised his hand again, motioning the team forward.
Moto no longer dared to talk nonsense, his previous dissatisfaction also subsided a lot.
Because he really can't afford so much money to share his worries for the country.
Xiahe still walked side by side with him, and said to Moto: "You guys, sometimes think the problem is too simple. Do you really think that the nobility is easy? Some little nobility, this time out, if they can't go back alive, they may pass on. The family business of the tenth generation was destroyed. "
"I really don't know this."
"I'm very rich. Until now, I haven't raised three thousand soldiers. The little nobles came out to fight, that's when all their net worths were overwhelmed. If there is no compensation, who will work for the empire. It's good to win, even Will it be possible to make money and lose if you lose the soldiers? There is no merit, and the compensation is not enough for the nobleman ’s compensation for the knight. "
"Is it so miserable?"
"General, you are full and the whole family is not hungry. The nobles have to support a lot of people. If I had robbed some money before and killed my head, I would not be qualified to support Her Royal Highness."
Khmer Mohan, Earl Asra, was too straightforward?
"However have you seen anyone get rich by robbery? This kind of thing can't last. The nobles still rely on business and mines, farmland, and a little accumulated wealth. The laws of the empire are very strict. It is not easy for everyone to make money by overcrowding people. Why do you let me dedicate to the empire? The existence of the empire protects everyone's private wealth, not the other way around. "
Moto was so choked that he did not intend to refute it.
He is a soldier, and he must be different from the other party.
Xiahe Road: "You don't have to worry about the princess, she is capable, and keeping the camp is not difficult."
"Your Highness said that the enemy will become stronger and stronger, and I can also feel the changes of those half-elves. At the earliest, when I went down with a sword, I could hack a dozen ..."
"Tell me, how did it get stronger?" Xiahe immediately became alert.
"Speed, strength, defense, and attack are all increasing. Now ordinary mercenaries are no longer their opponents. The Imperial soldiers can still fight a few, but they will also be injured. His Royal Highness has left the camp rigorously ... and, half elves Contaminated by divinity, their meat cannot be eaten ~ EbookFREE.me ~ How did the princess do? "
"His Royal Highness has built a magic furnace, and all the corpses are thrown in to burn and crystallize, and you can get some money back."
Xiahe nodded and said: "This is the right reason, otherwise even if the half-elves are killed, the divinity will still spread out and be absorbed by other creatures. Sooner or later it will be a scourge. I also have a furnace, but I didn't expect this before. Can the body structure change? "
"Yes, but I didn't participate in the dissection. You have to ask the magician at the camp."
"I will." Xiahe asked some more details, and found that the trouble near the center of the temple was not as big as the camp of Her Royal Highness.
The number of half-elves on my side is not large, and the number of poisonous insects is also very small. You can maintain the situation by relying on one or two thousand people.
There are more people dead in the princess camp.
"Princess camp, resources are not enough?" Xiahe suddenly asked, he realized a problem, that is, his space equipment is very large, unparalleled in the legend.
