Throughout the winter, both the northern and southern fronts of the Creation Kingdom were resting and recuperating. In the south, the spreading plague spread in the northern area of Saint Vicoia, and the people fled from their homes. The situation among the Saint Vicoia army was even more serious, causing darkness throughout the winter.
Neither Wuhou nor Yanlong launched any offensive military operations.
Fried took this opportunity to integrate the resources in the occupied area, and while resting and reorganizing the troops, he made some repairs. In the past few months, the pharmaceutical factory had been working day and night, stocking up on medicines, and jointly expanding the small private forging workshops, forming a
Four large weapons and armor factories were built, and an arsenal was built specifically to build war equipment.
The factory's equipment drawings were brought out from Bell Mountain City, and the equipment can be cast according to the drawings. The difficulty is the source of raw materials, processing and smelting. Saint Vicoia is in the north, that is, in the southern region of Vulkan, and there is no smelting plant and corresponding equipment.
The skilled workers, the most important foundries, and smelters are all in Bell Mountain City and the areas south of it. In the past, the supply of weapons to frontline soldiers was transferred through mountain cities and sent to the border passes and towers. The wilderness area of Vulkan is
It is relatively large. Not only is the supply of wood types and quantities small, but there are no large mineral deposits to be discovered, and there are only a few quarries.
The royal power started fighting in both the Holy and Demon realms at the same time. There were vast forests in the Demon Moon territory to the north of Vulkan and the uninhabited area to the east. There were also minerals in the Demon Moon territory. Although there was a large flow of people after the battle of Anmosiddu,
, but many people stayed, including workers in smelting and casting. They became the basic conditions for the southern factories to start production.
In addition, before the official eastern expedition of the Creation War, through the occupation of the desert area east of the west coast, especially the occupation of the two mineral-producing countries of Haspant and Toliba, the Yellow River east of Sand Dune Town
A rich variety of mineral deposits were discovered in the Sand Road area, giving the Creation Kingship an endless supply of weapons resources.
In fact, the Creation Royal Power had already made preparations and cultivated talents in all aspects during the more than ten years before they decided to start the war. However, they must be on Creation Island. The minerals that can be developed on the island are not to say endless, but they are also extremely limited. Therefore,
We have always been weak in mineral exploration, mining, smelting, etc. Therefore, when we first occupied the west coast, we focused on people in this field. At this time, a steady stream of ordnance supplies were transported to St. Piccolo through the desert corridor opened by Fried.
Asia's royal army.
The transportation army traveling through the desert is mainly composed of camels, desert tortoises and desert rock tortoises. Camels and desert tortoises are used to carry water and food, while desert rock tortoises are used to carry heavy military supplies. These three creatures are
A magical beast that is native to the desert and can be tamed. When the production techniques and recipes for the Thorn Shield Breastplate, Molten Iron Helmet, and Tear Steel Can were distributed to various arsenals, boxes of high-quality ordnance were transported to the Saint-Germain through the Freed Corridor.
Bikoa battlefield, resupply the pirate army and west coast army of the Creation Kingship.
The Thorn Shield Breastplate is a sturdy sleeveless breastplate with convex breasts. The armor is covered with steel cones that are 12 to 5 centimeters long. The protective strength of this breastplate itself is very impressive, and it is very suitable for light and heavy infantry to fight in close combat. Machinery.
After the forging master Jin En improved the forging process and raw material formula, the cost was greatly reduced. The three precious materials in the raw material formula were replaced with cheaper materials that were easier to obtain. It became a product that can be mass-produced and has a high yield rate.
Elementary treasure.
The Molten Iron Helmet is a barrel helmet craft formula obtained by the Holy Emperor in the Sand Temple. In the past, Glonus fought in the east and west. In addition to the bravery and proficiency of his army, it was also because of the excellent armor that could be mass-produced.
Weapons. This molten iron helmet is one of the weapon formulas that the Holy Emperor took out from the Sand Temple. Glonas can put this thing in it, which shows that he attaches great importance to military equipment.
Because the thorn breastplate was successfully improved, after Jin En obtained the formula, he focused on the restoration and production of helmets. The protection of the head is the most important on the battlefield. However, the molten iron helmet he created was not in the original formula.
The finished product, due to the differences between ancient and modern craftsmanship, resulted in imperfect restoration of some technical details. Even so, the molten iron helmet still achieved considerable strength and could be widely used as a helmet for heavy infantry and cavalry.
The Tear Steel Tank is also a helmet mainly made of steel. It is an improvement on the cappucci pig face helmet. It is said to be an improvement, but in fact it is a simplification. The original complex helmet structure has been transformed into a cone-topped helmet.
The two-stage structure of the neck guard is called a tear steel can because its shape resembles a crude silver soup can, which was finally tempered with shark tears. This helmet was inspired by the craftsmanship of casting molten iron helmets.
, a lightweight transformation of King Quan’s standard helmet. This helmet is light, has good protection, and has certain magical abilities. It is suitable for use by light infantry, knights and magicians. The tear steel tank barely reaches the level of primary treasures.
The production cycle is one-half that of a spiked shield breastplate and less than one-third that of a molten iron helmet. As long as there are enough Shark Tears, several factories can easily produce tens of thousands of such helmets.
With these weapons and equipment replenished, and the war-damaged warcraft guardians replenished, the New Year Offensive was ready to go. At this time, a treasure was delivered to the southern front of the royal power - the Horn of the Sand God.
At the beginning of the new campaign, Anwu Hou Yanlong was not unprepared. He mobilized the rainforest army and several elite troops to set up strongholds along the two wings of Bell Mountain City, stationed at various important roads, and stepped up to recover several towns, and then set up dotted sentries.
Densely deployed, with 12 to 18 sentries at each point, all light cavalry and empty cavalry, six shifts a day, each shift lasting four hours, carry out patrols and warnings in the air and in the wilderness. They can detect the movements of the royal army in all aspects in real time.
The idea is good, but the plague is unfortunate. Patrol scouts infected with the disease cannot complete 24-hour uninterrupted reconnaissance, and even some sentries are paralyzed. There is a pandemic in the army, including Anwu Hou Yanlong, who was also infected with Huo
Juvenile disease, thanks to symptomatic treatment, the condition was controlled in time, and he slowly recovered after careful treatment. However, symptomatic treatment is not a specific medicine. Symptomatic treatment of each infected person requires a large amount of medical resources, which is destined to only a small number of people.
Only some senior military officers can receive proper treatment, but even then, they may not be able to be treated well.
This time, when Fried commanded the three legions on the left, center and right to march, the war was one-sided. Saint Vicoia's army was on the verge of collapse and had no combat effectiveness at all. At the most outrageous moment, a small group of fifty people
The detachment chased the five thousand troops, and the area previously recovered by Saint Vicoia once again fell into the hands of the Creation King.
As the war situation became unfavorable, the pressure from the royal capital finally came to bear on Yan Long. Although the king had previously promised not to interfere with his military affairs, all the territory was lost in just a few days, and the ministers were full of criticism.
Minister Grancher strongly advocated the removal of Yanlong's unified command of the army.
King Zarbog withstood the criticism and still allowed him to take charge of the military, but asked him to achieve some achievements immediately to appease the criticism of the ministers. But this was not something he could do if he thought, and he could still command the army.
He is already in charge of the army well. If it were anyone else, without his reputation, the whole army would have collapsed long ago when the disease spread all over the country.
Yanlong is not someone who just sits there and waits for death, he must do something in the face of adversity.
