Age of Empires From Scratch - Chapter 359



[Chapter 359 Environmental Protection]

The days with things to do always go by very fast. David will meet Antonidas today, discuss with Kael’thas tomorrow how to better arm the arcane golems, and discuss with Daelin the day after tomorrow about the technology and manufacturing of the new warships.

In a blink of an eye, more than half a month has passed.

From the initial plan of visiting for three to five days, to ten days and a half a month, and even close to a month, some people still haven’t left Winter City.

The longer these leaders from Azeroth stay, the more they want to buy.

In the end, they still considered their limited assets, so they didn’t talk about any business other than military weapons.

However, Daelin Proudmoore and Magni Bronzebeard still stayed in Winter City for a full month. Daelin ran to the warship every day, wishing to remember the location of every screw on the Missouri;

Magni Bronzebeard went to the Winter Barracks, Winter Alchemy Workshop, Stark Manor and other places one by one, selecting the technology they most urgently needed from a large number of things.

Finally, Magni followed his original idea and chose new rifles and new artillery. Ironforge had enough foundation for these weapons, so everyone would not be clueless when they took over the new technology and could start using it directly.

Missiles could also be manufactured appropriately, but Magni-Bronzebeard didn’t know how to choose the tanks and humanoid mechas for Winterfell.

Because he didn’t know whether tanks and mechas could play a huge role in the environment of Northrend. If they were

useful, it would be fine. If they were useless, it would be a waste of a lot of resources and time. Not only the materials for making these weapons, but also manpower was a very important resource.

“Before the expedition, isn’t the Alliance going to send a group of advance troops to Northrend to conduct reconnaissance of the terrain and enemy situation?”

Not only to scout various situations, the vanguard troops were also responsible for finding suitable landing points, and establishing stable strongholds and ports to create various conveniences for the arrival of follow-up troops.

“You mean, build one or two first, and follow the vanguard to Northrend for field testing? Well, this is a reliable suggestion, let’s do it!”

Magni Bronzebeard also left Winter City after making the decision. Next, he will make a series of adjustments to the “production line” of Ironforge. The dwarves of the entire Ironforge will be mobilized to become the weapons production factory of the entire alliance.

Try to solve all kinds of problems within one or two months, produce the first batch of trial products, and provide them to the vanguard who set out first.

Therefore, the dwarves in Ironforge have a heavy task. Magni Bronzebeard, as the king, can no longer stay here and must go back to preside over the overall situation.

So far, David’s reception work is over.

Through this period of communication, Winter City will receive a steady stream of minerals, medicinal materials and other resources in the future. With the addition of the world of The Walking Dead and the Marvel Universe, he does not have to worry about the shortage of resources in Winter City during the next development period.

The influx of a large amount of resources will also stimulate the acceleration of the local industrialization process. For example, civilian automobile factories can also be considered to be officially opened.

The establishment of various factories will bring a large number of jobs and taxes to Winter City. Only then can Winter City be regarded as a truly sound city. With

sufficient population, light industry and heavy industry on the right track, and the steady upgrading of military strength, David was very happy.

When he was happy, the people around him suffered, especially Helen, who was easily caught.

“Speaking of which, my father hopes that my brother can go back to help.”

“Oh? You don’t need to tell me about this, right?” Since arriving in Winter City, Pollux and Castor have been staying in the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment and training with the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment.

Both of them have good potential, and with their status and position, they have become one of the commanders of the Spartan Heavy Infantry Regiment.

But Helen’s father Tyndareus hopes that his son, who has completed the training, will return to Sparta and lead his newly formed legion to unify the entire Balkan Peninsula and complete the first task assigned by the “God”.

This is the superficial statement. In fact, Tyndareus’s Spartan Kingdom has recently been besieged by several surrounding countries (city-states). The coalition led by Agamemnon and Theseus is preparing to attack Sparta.

The reason is simple. In order to snatch Helen, the famous beauty of Sparta, Theseus may have some ideas of revenge.

“…”

Tyndareus could not tell these things to David, the god, but Helen did not need to be taboo about these things. She directly told David about the difficulties faced by her father and motherland.

“Then let Castor and Pollux take some Spartan heavy infantry back and teach these ignorant barbarians a lesson.”

Helen laughed very happily. David showed his appreciation for her. This is what she wanted most.

As for the title of barbarian, after living in Winter City for a long time, I feel that my hometown Sparta is backward and barbaric when I go back to see it, not to mention other places. A group of ignorant barbarians actually want to snatch me as a wife. It’s just a daydream!

“Is it necessary to send the Spartan heavy infantry over?”

“If we can completely crush the morale of these people at once, perhaps we can put an end to these boring fights once and for all.”

Let the city-states around Sparta see the huge gap in strength between the two sides as soon as possible, so that they will give up the idea of competing with Sparta.

If the king of the other side is clear-headed enough, it would be the best choice to surrender the whole country directly. It would be better for David to annex the surrounding forces directly without spending a single soldier. The

human resources of that era were not abundant. Even if all the forces on the Balkan Peninsula were unified, there would not be much population. It

would be a luxury to unify the Mediterranean coast with just this population, not to mention going further.

Although Winter City can provide Sparta with various assistance, so that the Kingdom of Sparta can occupy a larger area of land with the minimum human resources, no matter how it develops, it cannot avoid the key factor of population in the end.

“Is that so… How about I go back for a while and persuade these places to join the Kingdom of Sparta?”

At this time, there are a lot of kingdoms of all sizes on the Balkan Peninsula. The so-called kingdoms are actually cities. Some of them don’t even have “cities”. They are just “countries” formed by some people living together.

In comparison, the Kingdom of Sparta is gradually evolving into a real “kingdom” because of the support of Winter City. Helen thinks that giving those people a chance to join is a great gift to them.

Don’t agree? Then beat them until they agree!

Her first target was several countries around her. In addition to these countries, she also targeted “celebrities” such as Agamemnon, Theseus, and Odysseus.

Helen usually read books to pass the time. She felt that these outstanding talents, instead of wasting their talents in that backward era, might as well come to Winter City to shine and shine. Maybe they could also get David’s praise and step onto a new peak from then on.

“Are one hundred Spartan heavy infantry enough?”

“Enough!”

One hundred Spartan heavy infantry were enough to sweep across that world. David wanted to completely deter all enemies. At that time, he would bring two Jericho missiles, which were specially used to blow up the mountain and scare these barbarians who had never seen the world to death!

Let Helen continue to rest and imagine an interesting future, while David went to see Floyd.

The negotiations with Maloney-Mansfield also yielded results. Winter City agreed to sell a batch of Garand rifles and ammunition to Iron Tree Castle.

At the same time, Winter City would send a teaching team headed by Knight Floyd to Iron Tree Castle to help Iron Tree Castle train a force that knew how to use firearms to fight.

In theory, this unit is still the army of Iron Tree Castle, but the command is controlled by Floyd.

During the “training period”, if Iron Tree Castle requires this unit to join the war against the elves, Floyd and other instructors will be responsible for commanding the operations.

It will not be until three years later, when all the soldiers have completed the detailed courses and a competent commander has emerged, that the command will be transferred back to Iron Tree Castle.

A lot of things will happen in three years. Maybe Iron Tree Castle will be swallowed up by Winter City by then.

It is even possible that Iron Tree Castle no longer exists. David believes that his Winter City will develop faster in the next few years. For example, Snowfield Castle and Frost Watch will become part of Winter City in the next few years.

The eastern part of the northern plains will also gradually develop and expand with the new port city as the starting point.

As for the south, according to David’s long-term plan, the Iron Tree Forest will become a huge park in Winter City in the future.

“Speaking of which, the scale of Winter City is constantly growing. Should we consider the issue of greening?”

David doesn’t want his city to have only a few green areas in the future. He hopes that his city will have fresh air and many plants in the city, and not just reinforced concrete from the air.

Even if his ultimate goal is to make Winter City the only city on the entire planet, he is not prepared to change the environment of the planet. He hopes that the entire planet will still have large areas of green.

David is not an environmentalist, but he thinks that a good environment is definitely more comfortable than a bad environment.

Even if it is purely for himself, he doesn’t want the environment of his territory to become very bad.

Fog, acid rain, stinky water, harmful radiation, etc., it is best not to appear in my territory forever.

Because of what David suddenly thought of, he found that his city had to set up an environmental sanitation department, and who would be the director was a headache for him.

“Mark, why haven’t you come back yet?”

Although Mark Watney is not a druid, as a botanist and a shaman, he can also be competent for this position.

In addition to Mark, there is only Steve Rogers, a part-time shaman, in Winter City.

“How about going to Azeroth to trick a famous druid over here?”
