Chapter 335: Soldiers approach the city
Since Lanelli set fire over Tanggulas County and fell a huge number of small stones over Shilin County, Karin also saw how huge the advantages in the air in the war were. She didn't know much about the technology of making formation guns, but she also knew that the family's killing weapon for external combat is not the formation gun but the hot air balloon.
"Father, I can understand the formation gun, and it is a good thing to exchange for so many people, but what about the hot air balloon? That is the key thing that can determine the outcome of the war. The father was not willing to sell it to His Majesty Carus before, so why now he agrees to transfer it to the Fierce Wind Dynasty?"
Zhang Ziqiang laughed proudly, and saw Kailin confused, he patiently explained: "This time, that time, that time, when His Majesty Carus wanted hot air balloon technology, didn't I go to the Nusen Mountains yet? Now I have discovered the Divine Palm Plain and conquered the monsters, the hot air balloon is not that important."
"The propulsion technology I sold them is a steam engine modified engine. It requires water to allow hot air balloons to fly. This means that their hot air balloons are not as fast as us in the air, and they are not as fast as us. In the air, we are far more flexible than them and are not afraid of not being able to beat them. This is not the key. Ordinary hot air balloons can rise to a height of 6,000 meters. Even if they are larger, they will reach an altitude of 8,000 meters. However, the golden-winged roc can fly to a height of 1,000 meters!"
"If the Crazy Wind Dynasty dares to use hot air balloons to invade us, we only need to send these hundred golden-winged rocs to fly to the hot air balloons and tear the airbags with sharp claws. No matter how high the soldiers they carry are, they will have to fall into meat pies!"
After hearing this, Kailin remembered the scene of hot air balloons falling from a high altitude along with the anti-gravity box below, and her face turned pale and shuddered! My father is really amazing!
"Oh!" Zhang Ziqiang sighed again, "In fact, if they purchased hot air balloon production technology, if it was not used for war, the price would be quite cheap. Not to mention hot air balloons for civilian use, it is a major supplement to the mainland's transportation system. Just talking about the steam engine technology is enough to set off an industrial revolution!"
"The family has built various machine tools, and you have also seen its functions. The processing of gun barrels is faster and more accurate than that of Jindan monks. There are many products they can process. These equipment will be moved to the Shen Palm Plain in the future. They can only be gradually taken out when the technology in the mainland reaches a certain stage."
"Most textile workshops nowadays use hand-woven fabrics. If the corresponding equipment is developed, driven by a steam engine, the weaving can be automatically completed, which can save 90% of manpower! However, I have never been exposed to this equipment before, and I don't want to study it and imagine how those women who weaving fabrics make a living if they have this equipment? These technologies need to be introduced step by step, and you must not be too hasty."
Kailin listened and thought, deeply agreeing. This was the first time Zhang Ziqiang told her a comprehensive explanation of the far-reaching impact of the family's new technology on society, allowing her to establish a concept first and lay a solid foundation for her future rule.
"Actually, I regret exposing the five-fold spirit gathering array and new alchemy technology. The family's base is set on the Divine Palm Plain. There is a balance between monsters and wild beasts, and isn't it another balance between monsters and humans? If these two technologies are fully used on the mainland, it will inevitably lead to a significant increase in the number of human golden elixir monks."
"At that time, these infinite humans will definitely ask for resources from the gathering places of monsters, and various monster bones, minerals, wood, etc., to attract humans. If the balance between humans and monsters is broken, the gathering places of several monsters on the continent will no longer be dangerous. At that time, not only will the monsters have no foothold, but our family's base will also be fully exposed! Therefore, the power transmission device and these two technologies cannot spread anymore, and the family will also reduce the number of elixirs refined year by year."
Zhang Ziqiang was also a little lucky: "Fortunately, the five-fold spiritual gathering array requires a lot of crystals. Now there are more steam engines, formation guns and other new objects that consume crystals. The output of crystals on the continent is limited. As long as we keep our alchemy technology and release some elixirs in a planned manner, it will not have a great impact on the continent. Remember to control this in the future. As long as we choose from the base of the Divine Palm Plain, we can use the power transmission device. Well, there are no fears of many Jindan monks within the control range!"
"The city of Nusen South will be built to Fennath, and let the Dover family build it by themselves. The property rights of the shops and facilities in the city belong to his family, and the taxes must be paid to the family as much as possible. The city of Nudong County will be granted to Luolan, so that he can expand the size of the port there, and trade with the north will flourish in the future. He can keep half of the taxes. With that port, your uncle's family will be worry-free."
...
After four days, Zhang Ziqiang systematically passed on his governance experience to Kailin. He was originally just a technician, and most of the so-called experience was obtained by reading news and newspapers before. Even after years of practical application, there were not many things that could be used. Kailin worked from the grassroots layer by layer, and his understanding of the mainland was deeper than that of Zhang Ziqiang. She was already familiar with Rosidin's political system. At this time, Zhang Ziqiang's careful teaching was confirmed one by one with the problems encountered in the past, and it was often understood at a glance.
During this period, Carus and several major dukes came to Rosiding again after hearing that he was selling hot air balloon technology. They knew that the hot air balloon was attracted by the mainland countries and it was unrealistic to keep it alone. Therefore, they did not say anything about Zhang Ziqiang's huge supplies for the hot air balloon, and Carus even talked about the transaction in a very realistic manner.
Finally, Zhang Ziqiang proposed that the hot air balloon technology should be exchanged for the multi-gum forests on the six islands of the royal family overseas. Carus thought that there were also many gum forests in Berwick, and they were all inland, so it was easy to pick and there was no threat from monsters in the sea. After the other four dukes agreed to allocate all gum forests in Berwick to the exclusive operation of the Carus royal family, Carus agreed to this transaction condition. The two parties agreed to trade after the country was destroyed in Berwick and several major families moved.
The seven-day deadline agreed by Zhang Ziqiang and Clara sisters had passed, but the king of Berwick Messier did not surrender. He was disappointed and decided not to delay time. The Crazy Wind Dynasty now had a request for the Yanhuang family and did not dare to interfere in the Crazy Wind War. He transferred back to the hot air balloon troops on the border between Berwick and Crazy Wind Dynasty, and sent all the Jindan maids, one person commanded ten thousand magic tigers, and sent 1,200 Jiedan maids to drive hot air balloons, with Kailin as the commander, and rushed straight to Kyoto in Berwick.
Within a few days, the eight hundred golden elixir maids and five thousand illusion tigers fell from the sky. With the force of Mount Tai, they cut off the ordinary teleportation array in Kyoto. After Kailin completed the team, he only gathered troops to the east gate of Kyoto, but did not siege the city. He left three hundred hot air balloons to help defend, in order to prevent the 200,000 imperial guards from counterattacking, and the remaining more than 700 hot air balloons from transporting the Yanhuang army back and forth.
After another ten days, 55,000 Yanhuang troops gathered in Berwick Kyoto. At this time, the civilians, merchants and some nobles in Berwick Kyoto had already escaped from the other three gates to avoid the war.
These people can escape, but Messil cannot. Berwick's main teleportation array is in Kyoto. If Messil escapes, the main teleportation array is occupied by the Kingdom of Al, and the main temple is regarded as the victory of the Kingdom of Al. The Kingdom of Al can apply to the temple to make a teleportation array card. The teleportation arrays of various counties lost by Berwick can be activated. The mobilization of the army of the Kingdom of Al is no different from the country, and the problem of transporting food, grass and military supplies is also solved.
Only the main temple can do teleportation cards. If Berwick loses Kyoto, there will be no main temple in the territory he controls. In other words, as long as other counties are captured by the Kingdom of Al, they can immediately apply for teleportation cards. On the contrary, Berwick's army counterattacks certain counties, but they will not get new teleportation cards, and the original teleportation cards can no longer be used. The Kingdom of Al is equivalent to fighting at home, and the offensive and defensive momentum is easy.
This rule is also a common rule passed down from the mainland for millions of years. This is also the reason why all kingdoms set Kyoto on the edge of the main teleportation array and sent heavy troops to guard it. The Qianfeng Dynasty had three main teleportation arrays, and one of them was lost to the vitality. The other kingdoms were lost to Kyoto and the country was destroyed. Therefore, Karin led only one troops to guard one gate, but Messier could not escape from the other three gates and could only defend the capital city to death.
The Yanhuang family soldiers were at the city. At this time, the Berwick Kyoto was in panic. The civilians and merchants in Kyoto fled, but the 200,000 imperial guards were all in the city. Huge hot air balloons were floating above their heads. There were many Yanhuang troops in the hanging anti-gravity box, holding formation guns to aim at the city wall below. As long as the imperial guards showed up, they would immediately suffer a string of bullets! In less than two quarters of an hour, there was no one on the city wall.
But the Imperial Guards dare not hide in the house. Tanggulas County is the lesson of the past. Once the Yanhuang Army set fire, they would have no choice but to escape. If the Yanhuang Army retreated from the city wall, they would have nowhere to hide. They stood on the street with a pale face, but they saw that the Yanhuang Army did not fire, but just patrolled the city wall.
The Imperial Guards next to them understood that they were all far away from the city wall and standing on the streets and squares. No matter how the officers urged them, they would never go up to the city wall to die. The officers at all levels of the Imperial Guards were not willing to fight when they saw the soldiers, and they were all panicked. They understood that Berwick was out of the way and did not dare to force them too much, so they could only wait for the orders of their superiors.
