Chapter 413: 411: Magic Tank (Additional 17)
Since Luo Yi dared to say so, there must be a reason.
In fact, in his eyes, Shenlan listed out a series of analytical reasons for him.
First of all, although the coalition forces were defeated and seemed to have not won a single battle, what they lost were some insignificant militiamen.
No matter how many of the nobles' private soldiers who were recruited were lost, it was actually no big deal.
The main forces of the coalition, especially those extraordinary knight orders famous in the Old World, rarely appeared in public.
That's right, magic weapons have changed the battlefield. The long-range bombardment of magic cannons, the ultra-long range of magic rifles, and the area damage of heavy machine guns...
These forces suppressed the traditional knightly orders, making the knights' once proud charges a joke.
But this does not mean that the Extraordinary Knights are not strong.
These powerful knights with extraordinary powers can definitely show terrible lethality as long as they are used well, their strengths are brought into play and their weaknesses are avoided.
Not to mention, as an old overlord, the reputation of the Bonaparte Empire was not boasted, but was fought for with every sword and gun.
Throughout history, you cannot say that some powers that belong to legends or myths are necessarily false.
Such a profound foundation, but until now, none of it has been revealed. This is very abnormal.
Secondly, although the empire had frequent news of victory, the large number of captives was also a heavy burden.
Supplies are needed to feed them, and transporting them domestically also consumes transportation capacity.
Although the Empire has a fleet of magic trucks that is much better than the Habsburg Empire, it goes without saying that the roads in the feudal empire are also very poor.
In addition, the imperial army advanced all the way from north to south, the supply lines were lengthened, and the logistical supplies were somewhat insufficient.
Luo Yi saw from the magic mirror that the imperial army was marching quickly. After chasing the enemy for a whole day, they had to go to the fields on both sides to look for wild vegetables for dinner.
This is a sign that logistics cannot keep up.
Luo Yi told all this to Red Dragon Virgil, and the old man narrowed his eyes slightly and said, "You mean, this is actually Xia Fei's strategy of wearing out the enemy?
Using militia and land to stretch the empire's military deployment?"
"I think so!"
"Isn't this plan a bit too bold?"
Red Dragon Virgil frowned slightly: "If we do this, the criticism and pressure that old man Xia Fei will have to bear will definitely be huge!
If he makes a mistake, he will be nailed to the pillar of shame in the Bonaparte Empire!"
"That's why Napoleon III trusted him so much!
A veteran general, an imperial marshal, who even abandoned his reputation for the sake of victory, shouldn't he be given enough respect and trust?"
"That's true!"
Red Dragon Virgil nodded slightly, which was considered as approval, and then he said: "In this case, Luo Yi, shouldn't you find a way to remind the Imperial Military?
Tell them there's a scam and take precautions in advance?"
Luo Yi couldn't help but rolled his eyes and said, "Then who do you think I should tell?
The Imperial Ambassador, Lord Robin Water, is, after all, just a diplomatic envoy. Does he have the qualifications to influence the cabinet and the military?
Either Baron Miller or His Majesty Saint Bartholomew, they can go directly to the presence of His Majesty the Emperor of the Empire.
But, I am a person with little influence, and I am also outside the situation, and I don’t have many sources of information. How much do you think they will believe what the Earl says?"
After a pause, Luo Yi continued, "Besides, since I can see it, then the smart people in the Empire's General Staff should be able to see it too.
But they still didn't stop it, or were unable to stop it. Why do you think that is?"
"Why?"
"Both sides are calculating, and both sides have their own calculations. As for who has calculated more than whom?"
Luo Yi exhaled and said, "Then let's wait and see!"
"Besides, this day won't last long."
…
It has to be said that this increasingly fierce war has given Roy a greater sense of crisis.
Especially during this period, the arms trade grew bigger and bigger, and the Imperial Golden Dragons filled his warehouse like water.
There was not much excitement about making a lot of money, but I became more and more nervous.
Acquiring wealth beyond your control is never a good thing; you never know when someone might covet you.
What's more, he is building a bridge between the four empires. It seems that they are sharing what they have and are doing good to each other, but you never know when he will be targeted by others.
So, after much deliberation, he finally made an important decision.
Mechanical Mage Tower, sixth floor.
"Luo Yi, do you have something to talk to me about?"
Lilia pushed open the door and walked in. Although she was pregnant, her steps were still agile and her movements were quick.
However, her hands were covering her belly intentionally or unintentionally.
She is still in the early stages of pregnancy, and her belly is not that big, just slightly bulging, and it is even less noticeable when covered by loose clothes.
Her hands were still stained with a lot of oil, obviously she had just come out of the laboratory.
She is still as beautiful as before, but compared to before, there is a layer of maternal glow on her face.
When Luo Yi saw her coming, he quickly stood up, supported her, and walked towards the sofa area in the back.
As he walked, he kept muttering, "Slow down! Slow down! The early stages of pregnancy require the most attention, go slowly!"
Lilia sneered: "Since when has the Lion King become so cautious?"
"Isn't it because I'm afraid you'll hurt my daughter?"
"Why a daughter? Isn't a son good? Don't you nobles all like to have sons?"
"Hahaha, when we met, I was still a bastard. I never liked the rules of the nobility!
The reason I want a daughter is because I heard people say that daughters are their fathers’ little cotton-padded jackets and are the most caring.”
"But I still hope he is a son, so that the flower collar can be more stable."
"Haha, with me here, the flower collar will always be stable."
As he spoke, Luo Yi had already helped Lilia sit down on the sofa. Afraid that she was hungry, he even brought her tea and snacks.
However, Lilia didn't move. Instead, she got back to the point and asked, "Luo Yi, you called me here specifically. Is there something wrong?"
"Yes! But don't worry, is there anyone else coming?"
"Who is it?"
Ding-ling, ding-ling!
Before Lilia finished speaking, someone knocked on the door again and walked in. It was Mrs. Linda and Douglas Hill.
Yes, it was Douglas Hill. After attending Roy's wedding, he did not leave in a hurry.
Originally, he wanted to wait until the chief designer of the new Brussels city was selected, get close to the other party, and then specifically place his magic walkie-talkie.
Unfortunately, the situation changed suddenly and the war began, so Luo Yi didn't let him go back.
Of course, he did not waste his time here. Looking around him, there was an obvious disturbance of magic, which caused the elements to become a little restless as well.
This was a sign that his magic power was difficult to maintain after a surge, and the reason was simple. He used this time to finally take that step.
Now he can finally declare to the outside world that he is an extraordinary wizard.
Mrs. Linda was in a similar situation, also experiencing a magical agitation that had not yet subsided.
Both of them completed the transformation from human to extraordinary in Lion Manor.
They were all acquaintances, so they were not polite when they met. After a simple greeting, they sat down on their own.
Douglas took the initiative and poured a cup of tea for Mrs. Linda and then filled one for himself.
After taking a sip, he shook his head and said, "Luo Yi, what's the matter with you calling us here?"
It was obvious that he was in a very good mood after the breakthrough.
Luo Yi smiled and said jokingly, "You want a project, don't you? I've found one for you!"
"Project? Magical machinery? New blueprints? What kind of project? Show me quickly."
Douglas straightened up almost as if he had been electrocuted, and looked at Roy eagerly.
Luo Yi's expression grew even more serious. After a brief silence, he said, "Next, what I'm going to show you is very dangerous. It could be a killer weapon on future battlefields.
You are the ones I trust the most, so I hope you can help me build it!"
Mrs. Linda frowned slightly and said, “Is it so serious?
I am only proficient in potions and not familiar with machinery. If strict confidentiality is required, I will withdraw."
“Mrs. Linda, I know what you said, but I can’t find anyone else.
You are the only ones I trust!"
Luo Yi emphasized again, making the three of them serious.
It was Lilia who took his hand and asked softly, "Luo Yi, what's wrong with you?"
Luo Yi smiled bitterly: "The war outside really makes me a little worried, so I need some powerful weapons that can be concealed and can calm the situation at a critical moment."
"I have already drawn the design. Now, I need you to help me realize it."
Douglas Hill became interested, raised his eyebrows slightly, and said, "Take it out and let me see. I'd really like to know what kind of powerful weapon can make you so cautious."
Luo Yi did not hesitate. He raised his hand and touched his motto ring, and a dozen pieces of information appeared in his hand.
As everyone knows, anything that can be collected into the holy artifact by Luo Yi is a good thing.
Luo Yi handed over a thick stack of information. Douglas took it and took a quick glance at it. He asked in surprise, "Magic Tank, what the hell is this?"
Louis also smiled strangely and said, "Actually, I prefer to call it by its nickname, the King of Land Warfare!"
