Chapter 1113
My Empire Chapter 1113

Chapter 1113 1115 is so cheap"ding ding dong dong!" A silent tank driver is holding a huge hammer, knocking on the wedges on the tank's tracks.
With a crisp metal sound, the track connecting pin that connected the track fell down, and the heavy track lost its restraint and disconnected, hanging between the two idlers.
Not far away, several soldiers were laboriously removing a piece of track that was dismantled and lifting the truck to be transported by the High Level.
They shouted "one, two, three, one, two, three" and worked together to stack the heavy steel onto the car whose cargo box was already full of tracks.
An M4 Sherman tank full of mottled, even a little peeled paint, which has been disassembled beyond recognition.
Its turrets have been removed and stacked on the other side of the warehouse. In the remaining car body here, skilled workers are doing work that the tank soldiers can't do.
The work of dismantling the high-value equipment in the tank can only be done by logistical troops and engineers under normal circumstances.
Ordinary tank soldiers can only be responsible for dismantling the crawler and helping to lift things.
These workers cautiously removed some valuables inside the tank, including the gearbox, including the engine, including the Wireless Electronics station.
In short, a tank, especially a tank in the World War II era, has a lot of valuable things. After all, the tank armor at that time was not made of ceramics and composite materials. It was all uniform steel, and it was all high-quality steel that could be returned to the furnace and reused!
Some of these tanks are still very new, they were purchased from the Alanhill Empire with real gold, white silver before the Grickens were included.
Most of the tanks are new, have a short service life in the Grecon, and most have never been in combat.
There are also some tanks that were donated to Grecon by the Alanhill Empire. These tanks are relatively old, and many of them are old models that have not been equipped with the magic defense barrier system.
The paint on many of the tanks is still new, and they haven't seen their enemies since they were produced. They just lay quietly in the warehouse, occasionally being driven out for a training lap, and then sent back to the warehouse for proper preservation.
everyday all There is a special person responsible for dusting and lubricating these tanks, and even starting them every few days to check the working condition of the engine and gearbox.
Feeding an armored force, even if it doesn't take part in combat, keeps only a minimum training standard of armored force, it is expensive to maintain.
Who would have thought that the daily consumption of lubricating oil by the Alanhill Imperial Army is calculated in 10,000 tons!
And the 80 or 90% of the new tanks in front of them have already been destroyed. The tank production of the Alanhill Empire has been very small, and even the advanced Type 99 tanks are now only produced in small quantities, barely maintaining the number.
As for the previous models of tanks, they have basically been discontinued. The front line is now heavily equipped with heavy infantry war chariots that serve the heavy armored grenadiers. The new tank division has not appeared for a long time.
And the more backward, M4 Sherman medium tank, which is the first generation main battle tank of the Alanhill Empire, has basically been classified into the sequence of decommissioning and dismantling.
The crane lifted the turret of a complete Sherman tank, and several tank soldiers stepped forward with complicated expressions and began to dismantle the tank's tracks.
The tank next to them had all the wheels and damping system removed, leaving a single body still on the jack.
"You guys are really wasteful. If you don't want these equipment, you can give them to my army!" Looking at the dismantled tank in front of her, Eresia said with regret.
Her army still only has backward weapons and equipment such as swords and shields, so looking at these 80-90% new tanks in front of her is really very sad.
"These tanks are already out of date, and reluctance to use them will cause even greater waste. In addition... Before receiving the order of His Majesty from the emperor, these heavy weapons and equipment were impossible to hand over to the devil. Use it." The officer who accompanied Aresia said with a smile on his face.
"The war is not over yet, you have already begun to disperse so many troops, are you really not afraid of slack and the war will change?" Aresia almost completely ignored the demon's battle strength to the Alanhill Empire behavior, feel a little dissatisfied.
Anyway, her army can be considered relatively capable of fighting, right? Could it be true that there was no way to make the Alanhill Empire more or less vigilant?
My lord, times have changed. The officer accompanying Aresia was still smiling. He really wanted to say something like this to the Demon King in front of him, but in the end, he remained silent, provoking Aresia's temper with the expression that "serves a beating".
Irisia feels very wronged many times. She has seen a lot of news about the beauty of the Alanhill Empire, so she is still very confident in her appearance.
But the goddamn Emperor of Alanhill, who reserves a beating, doesn't seem to intend to give her some special treatment, not even the basic gentleman's demeanor-Eresia seriously suspects that the guy is a steel A straight man is a bastard who doesn't know how to have tender, protective feelings for the fairer sex!
Of course, she wouldn't say these comments, because she acknowledged the strength of the other party, and every time she thought of that powerful man built such a powerful empire, her body would get hot.
She likes to conquer, like war, but also longs to be conquered, long to be trampled underfoot by a powerful opponent - this is a complex mood that only she can understand.
After sorting out her mood, Irisia suddenly asked: "Yesterday you showed me the handicrafts made by the traditional handicrafts of Greken, and you told me that it was for the Imperial Family as a tribute. ...but this morning, he took me to see the Mansgar car production line set up in Grecon..."
"A craft that we demons can also make, you are so rare. Special offering to the Imperial Family as a tribute! But sophisticated and advanced cars are actually regarded as cheap national commodities by you! Why is this?" She curiously looked at the officers who accompanied her on the visit, and seemed to be very interested in this question. .
"I think, this is the charm of industry." The officer pointed to the tanks and said, "My general understanding is that if we can only produce one vase a day, very beautiful vase, like If it is called art, it is backward. But if we can mass-produce hundreds of cars and hundreds of planes every day, then we can appreciate the beauty of the vase that can only be produced by hand in one day. It's art, it's advanced..."
"I understand." Aresia nodded, looked thoughtful: "You guys are so cheap."
