"AD 1897, the summer of the Griffin, in the face of the worsening national situation, in order to deal with the imminent outbreak of the eternal holy war, Renee Qin Lan, the 'Knight Princess' of the Principality of Donglan, was determined to retrieve the lost glory of the Land of Lan. She worked hard, and through many trials, finally won the approval of her ancestor, the heroic spirit Roland Lan, and with the return of the undead warband, with the 'Return Day Celebration' and 'the first winter hunt in three hundred years' Season ' is the symbol, and history has turned a new page, and the wolf king of the north, who dominates the north, has finally begun to rise again."
This is a review of a historical journal after many years, and it is normal to see it from here...
"Of course, for most audiences, this was not the point from the very beginning. Princess Renee, who never married, actually made her ancestor Roland a guardian knight, which was a hot topic in countless poetry and drama collections in later generations. Although No detailed historical data has been left, but considering the chaotic family relationships of the Northlanders and the fact that Princess Renee never married, we can guess that these creations still have a certain true blueprint. As for the rumors that Princess Renee's sexual orientation is more bizarre, It should be just a cover to hide."
"—The above is excerpted from "Exploration of the Historical Prototypes of the Ten Classic Love Operas", compiled by the publishing house affiliated to the Cultural Office of the Ainrock Empire. Note: This book is regarded as a banned book by the Donglan Empire and other northern countries, and the author was wanted by the Donglan people If you are chased and killed, if you are besieged and beaten for bringing this book into the Northland, you are asking for it yourself, and the magazine will not be held responsible."
Well, this publishing house that will die in the future will not be held accountable for the time being, nor will the future troubles caused by this guardian knight be considered. There will not be a strange situation with two cores in Donglan.
After all, the Principality of Donglan is now rebuilding various legions, and the commanders of each legion are undead knights. From an outsider's point of view, I am directly parachuting down and mastering the new army. Naturally, I feel like an overhead monarch, and some things can be avoided. It's still good.
The formation of most of the legions went very smoothly. Just when the intention to expand the army was revealed, the military department and the recruitment point were crowded. Although due to the backward industry, there is no need to think about weapons and equipment, but at least the personnel are sufficient. Training can also be started.
But this is good, and naturally there are also bad luck. Some corps have encountered trouble from the beginning, and it is a big problem that cannot be solved in a short period of time.
"Asmu's dog trainer? There is a full set of training methods, or an improved version. The applicants are all carefully selected smart boys, and they are all good seedlings. Those undead rangers also showed their unique dog training skills. The siege and raid of more than ten skeleton dogs played the taste of battlefield battle, but the problem is... "
"The Touk Bulldog is extinct? How is that possible?"
Well, I really didn’t expect this question. Took fighting dogs are large fighting dogs unique to the North. They are half-human tall, with snow-white hair and extremely cold-resistant. They have sharp teeth and sharp mouths and have a keen sense of smell. They are aggressive and loyal by nature. , are the best companions of Asmu dog handlers, and they even dare to fight with lions after training.
"We just found out that the loss of the country was too great, and all the domesticated fighting dogs were lost. Then there were natural disasters year after year, and people couldn't get enough to eat, not to mention the dogs. They were basically eaten up by the victims, at least they couldn’t find a fighting dog in Difen.”
After a moment of hesitation, I finally asked.
"...Since the fighting dogs are all extinct, why don't you try... Transfer to Asmu wolf trainer? There aren't many others in the north, but there are definitely enough wolves. It seems that the winter wolves are also very strong. It seems that they are all canids, There shouldn't be much difference."
Well, as soon as this layman's word comes out, the undead rangers look at me like they look at aliens.
"His Royal Highness, wolves and dogs are fundamentally different species. The wild nature of wolves is difficult to tame. Moreover, winter wolves are magical beasts. No matter how you look at them, they have nothing to do with ordinary wolves."
I moved my lips, but didn't say anything. Am I going to talk to them about Darwin's theory of evolution, and who knows how dogs and wolves in other worlds evolved, maybe they are really not the same species, if I make a mistake It's even more embarrassing.
"Interracial really is a problem, but..."
Speaking of this, when I mentioned cross-species, I inexplicably thought of that person.
"You still like humans just because you haven't met the real life you love. Species? That's never a problem" - BY, brother of a true love sibling group.
So, I tried to mention a sentence.
"... Even if it sounds incredible, you can still try it. You go to the hunter named Beifeng Aero. Well, it's the legend of 'the prisoner Beifeng, the crime Beifeng, the sentence Beifeng'. No. , don't look at me like that, I didn't give up treatment, and I didn't take medicine today, believe me, you go to him and try it first."
The rangers left in disbelief, and I was just secretly glad that I had fooled it and forgot about it.
But I didn't expect that after two months, the rangers rushed into my office again and told me amazing news.
"What, that guy actually managed to tame the winter wolf? Aero polar wolf tamer? What's the name. By the way, how did he succeed? Huh? Why is everyone silent, well, I know I shouldn't ask Yes, please don't tell me, and don't spread it out!"
If the Eero Polar Wolf Tamer found a replacement by mistake, several legions could not be formed due to many reasons.
Due to the existence of the live signboard of the last dragon knight Dimir, the registration of this meritorious group was also very active, but the registration point was closed after only one day of opening, and Dimir was confiscated by himself. .
reason? How to form an air cavalry battle group without a strong air cavalry? From the name of the Black Griffin battle group, it can be seen that there is no fundamental difference between the previous air cavalry in the Land of Lan and other human empires, and it is still dominated by griffins. But today's Donglan can afford expensive gryphons.
And when the jihad had broken out, it was difficult to buy this kind of military supplies. Seeing that other brothers had formed legions, and he was still a bare commander, how could Dimir not be in a hurry.
"The suggestion to transfer the Aurora Knight and the high-level headless knight to the air cavalry battle group is directly rejected. Dimir, don't be bitter, I will ask Best to grab a batch of manticores and send them over, which is better than the griffins. cut."
"What? That's two different things? Manticores can't be domesticated at all? Trust me, you might need a sad wind. What? Gryphons in groups to use group tactics? Well, if you insist on gryphons, I remember Xiaohong If you raise a group, you can borrow dozens of them, but if there are hundreds of them, even if she is willing to give them, we can't afford them."
Just as the energy consumption of a mechanical flying unit is a hundred times that of a chariot, to get rid of the shackles of gravity, a lot of extra energy must be paid. As a result, flying units are generally energy-intensive, such as machinery, magic creatures, and living birds of prey. It is almost the same. Human griffins and giant eagles are considered good, and they must also provide a large amount of meat for each meal.
Four or five hundred griffins are eaten at a meal, which is probably enough for 10,000 people to eat a meal. I am afraid that the financial logistics director will faint directly, but it is really not very useful if the griffins are not in groups.
"Yes, there are at most thirty cavalry, which can only be used as detective cavalry, so many can't afford to support them."
Thirty is only thirty, it is better than the bare commander. When Dimir left with a sigh, new troubles came again.
This time, the brothers and sisters Fendak and Lannie came. They were both excellent users of the Holy Light, but after being transformed into undead creatures, both of them became excellent death knights. into greater trouble.
Originally, their "Hammer of Dawn" Chapter was a Holy Light Chapter with Paladins and Battle Priests as the core, but now if you don't mention Dong Lan's dissatisfaction with the Church of the Holy Church, it will inevitably lead to slow recruitment progress, and the head and deputy head The inability to use the Holy Light is the biggest drawback.
The death knight who can't use the light to teach the light and the fighting skills of the paladin is completely embarrassing, and the undead creatures stay in a large number of users of the light, maybe one day they will be inexplicably killed. The Holy Light has been purified, and this has to be guarded against.
"...How about trying to form a Black Knight or Black Knight Chapter? Or simply come to a Death Knight Chapter and teach those kid death knights how to fight in advance?"
In the end, the Fallen Paladins and the Death Knights were still blown away. After all, the full-time conditions were too pitiful, and no living knight would take the initiative to transfer to a death knight.
As for the formation of the Light Knights, Silance, who is the long wind knight, and I discussed the content, which can be roughly described in eleven words.
"Money? Horses? Equipment?"
"No money! No horses! No equipment!"
The knights are burning money, and the knights are spending more money. The strong national power and logistics can support the strong knights. Hearing my answer, the cool Silans turned his head and left. Perhaps, from the very beginning, he I know I can't get it, but how can I be willing if I don't try it.
I originally thought that recruiting soldiers to form a new chapter would be easy, but when I actually sat in this position and had a lot of chores, I realized that what I thought was too simple.
The previous defects can still be overcome, but some aspects are almost dead ends. The most difficult of them is that Donglan lags behind the industrial level of this era.
This backwardness is in all aspects. Forging, steel, mining, engineering machinery, and alchemy are still at the level of one or two hundred years ago. Even if there are wise kings who try to make efforts in this area, they face the hostility of the mainstream human society. Not to mention the blockade, even if others are willing to sell it, Donglan can't afford it.
The old forging furnace is still in the style of two centuries ago. All alchemy and engineering shops are low-end products with standardized specifications. After losing the last rich mining area 20 years ago, the mining industry also declined rapidly. Equal to no.
In this world, if you want to forge a good sword, you must first collect enough iron ore by miners, and then process it into steel ingots and iron ingots in the iron and steel industry, and then hand it over to the blacksmith to build it. Enchanters and alchemists will be invited to engrave and enchant magic patterns.
With the existing industrial level of Donglan, let alone analyzing the new weapons from Oran, it is enough to repair the damaged weapons and equipment in the armory, not to mention providing new equipment with high quality and quantity for the new army. .
A low-quality iron sword requires countless processes, not to mention the excellent suits of the ace knights. Dong Lan has fallen into a strange situation where there are blueprints but no craftsmen, skills but no equipment, templates and no raw materials, this gap.
Fortunately, I have found a lot of talents in Oran this time, from all walks of life, but it will take a lot of time to let them live and work in peace and contentment, and then truly integrate into the blood and limbs of this country, and at present, we are the most What is missing is time.
"Boom!" "Boom!"
The sound of the explosion in the distance resounded through the sky, and the flying roof beams cut through the sky and swirled into the distance, but the people were no longer surprised. After all, this explosion was already a daily reserved subject.
Before, people didn't understand how to draw a separate area for those experts in various industries to do research areas.
But this time, after the explosion, I saw a familiar figure, that was Olivia, the "Miracle Alchemist", who was covered in smoke. At this time, although she was extremely embarrassed, her face was full of excitement.
"Since learning from Silver Hook, Olivia's explosions alone have accounted for half of the entire research area, at least three times a day, and ten times more often, so that she didn't kill herself. Perhaps, it was the 'miracle' ' the origin of the name."
I slandered in my heart, but Olivia smiled happily when she saw me.
"His Royal Highness, what you want me to study is clear. As you said, it may be able to change the world."
