Chapter 58 58 The army heading south

In the next second, the fire and shock waves swelled under his crotch. His whole body lifted into the sky. His eyes were instantly dark, and there was only a roar in his ears.

The explosion seemed to sound the horn of the attack of the Alanhill Grenadiers. With the huge black smoke rising into the air, countless Alanhill soldiers with M42 helmets, holding their weapons, crossed over. The corpses of Arrant soldiers have piled up.

"Long live Alanhill!" A few seconds later, a lieutenant Alanhill with a pistol stepped on the charred and broken body of General Arrant, looking at the gate of the City Lord's Mansion that had been slammed open, He ordered to his subordinates.

"Go!" Following his orders, countless soldiers with rifles rushed through the gate of City Lord's Mansion. Soon, Arrant's green king flag flying over the City Lord's Mansion was thrown from the roof, and the black Alanhill golden eagle king flag was hung on the towering flagpole by the soldiers.

The Alanhill officer in leather boots looked at the decoration of the City Lord's Mansion, which was even more luxurious than their archduke Chris Your Majesty's castle, and walked to the city Lord Adam of Naru City surrounded by soldiers.

"I'm... the City Lord Adam of the Arrant Empire! I'm a man with a title! I demand treatment from a nobleman!" Adam, who already knew that he was dying, looked at the "poor people who didn't even have armor" in front of him. The Alanhill soldier, who was in the midst of the war, shouted: "I am willing to pay the ransom for myself!"

"hahahaha!" The one who came to Adam with a pistol was an Alanhill battalion commander who heard Adam's After the gibberish, I couldn't help laughing, which made the atmosphere in City Lord's Mansion very cheerful.

Then, the battalion commander looked at the plump City Lord Adam of the Arrant Empire, raised his pistol and pointed it at him: "Sorry, according to General Wagron's order, Naru City City Lord Adam is so sinful that he must be executed."

Speaking of this, the battalion commander ignored Adam, who was already trembling like a sieve. He pulled the trigger of his pistol and the bullet flew out. The muzzle of the gun pierced Adam City Lord's forehead - the gunshot echoed in the empty City Lord's Mansion hall, like a death knell: "Bah..."

Satisfied Outside the city of Lu, Vagron, who dismounted from his horse, threw the whip in his hand to his new adjutant. His former aide-de-camp, Coria, has taken over as a commander in one direction.

He looked at a very special toy in front of him and instructed with interest: "With this thing, we can send the news from the front to the rear?"

"Come on! Push hard! Quick!" Several non-commissioned officers gathered around the iron frame and cheered on the four soldiers who were brow beaded with sweat: "There's already a response there! It's a success!"

That's right, this is the legendary manpower Generator, which relies on a device similar to a spinning exercise machine, and a device that relies on people to pedal to generate electricity. On the other side of the device is a Wireless Electronics transmitter.

"I have it! I have it! Quickly send the report! Send back the news of the capture of Naru! Quickly!" Several command officers saw the electric energy pointer on the machine began to vibrate, and came immediately Spiritually, he opened his mouth and urged the electrician to speak.

The electromechanical operator immediately began to tap the firing pin in front of him, and sent out the message that had been reduced to the point that it could no longer be reduced: "Capture Naaru!"

And almost At the same time, in the distant Serris City, more than a dozen alchemists are mixing a new synthetic rubber with test tubes in their hands. In their experiments cautiously, Chris, who was in charge of supervising these experimenters, was also constantly rummaging through the experimental reports in his mind, hoping to get more useful information.

The magic ball of knowledge brought by the great magician Frenzberg helped Chris cultivate more than a dozen "artificial transmigrators" that could help him accomplish some of his tasks. However, these people are still in the experimental stage of debugging the knowledge in their minds. Once they are ready, the expansion speed of industrial civilization may increase tenfold.

William is now working to document how the Sphere of Knowledge is made, one of his most important recent endeavors. In addition, one of the auxiliary work he needs to do is to dictate some secrets of the Holy Demon Emperor country.

As the so-called know yourself and know your enemy, and you will never be defeated, Chris needs to fully understand the strengths and weaknesses of Magic Empire, in order to prescribe the right medicine, and take the initiative when facing the Magic Empire army in the future. .

Frnzberg is currently researching a brand new machine. According to him, he should find a way to integrate magic into the machine to make the machine work better. It's a pity that his research direction is basically wrong recently, and Chris can't give him any clear pointers in this regard.

After all, Chris is an industrial civilization, and he doesn't know anything about magic. So he can easily draw a blueprint of a car's design, but he doesn't know anything about a car powered by magic.

"Phew..." An alchemist, or now it should be called a chemist, put down the test tube in his hand, put out a long breath, and completed his experiment: a man-made product with better elasticity and less aging Rubber was born, a special material that Chris requested.

With this material, Chris will miniaturize his internal combustion engine and start working hard on gasoline engines: in his opinion, it is only by creating a vehicle as a means of transportation that his Combat Unit can be used. Assemble and act faster.

If you add the economic benefits of automobiles in transportation, the transformation that this means of transportation has brought to Alanhill is obvious. After all, building railroads takes time anyway, but cars don't—cars are fine as long as the road isn't too potholed.

"We started laying the railway in three sections, and each section was built from both sides to the middle. The speed is actually very fast." This is Dez's report on his railway work yesterday. The railway will be open to traffic in 70 days and will become the main artery of Alanhill.

If it weren't for the sudden outbreak of war, the railway would not have been built at such a rate that Chris ordered the construction of roads up and down the country to be accelerated because of the need to mobilize more supplies.

What's more interesting is that in addition to the railway from Ferry City to Serris and then to Tubao, the railway from Hanhai to Beijun is also under construction at the same time. The speed of this construction is really astounding - because no one will build a railway like this, just like a joke.

Even the most rational person, when building a railway, will think about whether it will lose money if the railway fails to meet the requirements for use. Chris didn't need to think about such a boring question. He knew the answer for a long time. At first, he invested 120,000 passions to build a railway track that no one knows about the future.

This construction model is only dared to be used by Chris, who owns a cheat. He started investing in the construction of railways before the locomotive was produced! Now, a nearly 100-kilometer-long railway is about to be built, and Chris's locomotive is still being assembled and tested in the factory...

Now, the monarch of Alanhill is thinking about what to do. Don't start work now, build a railroad from Serris City to Naaru City - so he can quickly get his troops to the front and throw them into the war.

"dang dang dang..." Just as he was thinking wildly and dragged his thoughts to the distant war front, the door of the laboratory was knocked from outside. With permission, an officer pushed the door into the laboratory and stood behind Chris.

"Your Majesty! The news just came back from the front line, our army has won a big victory, and the 1st Stage attack target Naru City is already under our control." Seeing Chris stop After finishing his work, the officer immediately lowered his head and reported the latest news from the front line just now.

"Oh? Naru has been taken down?" Chris was also excited to hear the news, put his things down, and took the telegram from the front line from the officer.

This thing can be said to be very precious, because this is the first time in human combat that telegraph is used to transmit the news of victory, and the battle situation on the front line only took a few minutes to transmit. Back at the back of several hundred li.

"Capturing Naaru..." Looking at the brief sentence in the message, Chris smiled: "Good job! Spread the news! Then order the soldiers to publicize in the city and the factory. , spread the news of the victory! It was a victory for all the people of Alanhill! It was a victory for all of us!"

Meanwhile, on the front lines, Vagron was not rejoicing His expression was slightly frowned, and he was a little unsure whether he should continue to attack south or east, or should he stay in place.

The previous attack speed was too fast, everything went too smoothly, and the smoothness made him a little confused: if he attacked further south, his troops would rush to "Bude" and "Bude" respectively. Maricha," and counting Naru would have allowed him to distract him from an already valuable force.

If you count the city "Wolavor" to the east, and the roads and land connecting these cities, then Alanhill's attacking force is almost completely dispersed. Vagron was the front-line commander of this battle. There were only 12 regiments under his command, and 5 were dissatisfied with the combat strength of the division.

The current situation is that the two divisions going south are not the main divisions, and their strength is not full. 6th Division commanded by Jos.

The troops attacking east were the 4th Division under the command of Mordelaire, the general reserve was the 3rd Division under the command of Wilkes, and the 2nd Division under the command of Vagron...except Except for the 3 regiments under the 3rd and 2nd divisions of the reserve team, the rest of the troops are composed of 2 regiments, and the troops are actually not sufficient.
