"That's right, you heard me right, I'm going to tear down the walls of Remlos Castle. Murphy nodded, he had had this idea for a long time, but he had never had the opportunity to realize it before.

Because cement is not difficult to make, with cement, you can place sand, stones, and the like to make concrete in proportion.

However, because Murphy did not study civil engineering in his previous life, the concrete produced may not be so good, but there is no problem with building a small building of several floors.

"But, Your Highness, I don't quite understand, why do you want to tear down the city wall? Without the city wall, what can we do to defend against foreign enemies?, what if a demonic beast attacks the city?" Marshall asked worriedly.

"Because the walls will limit our development, Marshall. You are the treasurer who oversees the finances of Remlosburg, and you can't do without taxes collection, caravans, construction, and the like, don't you feel that Remlosburg can't accommodate more people?" Murphy asked rhetorically.

Marshall couldn't help but nodded, he was in charge of the census in Remlos Castle, so he naturally knew the current population pressure and population density in the city.

At present, the total population of Remlos Fort is approaching 180,000, many of which were bought back by knights from various big cities, and some are refugees who were rejected by other cities some time ago and fled to Remlos Fort to be taken in.

Many of them worked in steel mills, parts factories, sulphuric acid factories, and various factories invested and built by the new aristocracy.

According to the Remlos Census completed in February, there are about 30,000 people working in these factories, either urban or private.

In other words, almost 60 percent of the city's young and middle-aged population worked for the city's secondary industry, and of the remaining 40 percent, about 20 percent served in the army or police, and the other 20 percent were merchants, farmers, hunters, and other occupations.

Of course, there are still some unemployed people who have to or voluntarily go to the streets to be rats, but Remloth Burg's deep hatred of the underworld and the relentless anti-crime of the Security Bureau have also disappeared.

It's far away, sweeping away the evil is what I will talk about later.

In short, the city wall has severely limited the scale and development of Remlos Castle, whether it is for the housing problem, or for the development problem, the demolition of the city wall is inevitable, this is the general trend, unstoppable.

"But Your Highness, Fort Remlos is located on the frontier, the bordering kingdom of Thebes in the north, although its status is not as good as Jackdaw Fortress, Lionheart Fort and the like, but it is also one of the several gates when the enemy army attacks!

"I must have thought of this when I dared to tear down the city wall, Marshall, you think about it, our army has as many as five thousand, which is already equivalent to the strength of a marquisate, and every soldier has spent a lot of money to arm, just the weapons and equipment on each soldier are enough for the hardware and naso, and it costs a full 30,000 gold naso to arm the entire army!

"But why is Remloth Fort able to sustain such a huge amount of consumption, and why does the city's economy not retreat? Have you ever wondered about it?"

"I have observed that the main reason why our economy is not in recession is that the export of so-called industrial products such as arquebuses and steam engines has brought us great benefits, and last month the export of fifteen steam engines alone brought us nearly 100,000 gold nasos, not to mention other finished products, even after purchasing saltpeter and iron ore and paying the wages to the workers, the financial surplus was as high as 50,000 gold nasos. Marshall was thoughtful.

"After the walls are torn down, we can use this vacant land to build more factories, and by that time, we will be able to double our industrial output again. Murphy clenched his fists and said confidently.

"Tear down! The walls must be demolished!"

Marshall's attitude quickly changed and he became a staunch supporter of future wall demolition bills.

But soon, he couldn't help but think.

"But Your Highness, after the city wall is demolished, what can we do to defend against foreign enemies and demonic beasts?"

"Hahaha, Marshall, after that battle in a few days' time, you won't have to worry about defending against foreign enemies!" Murphy laughed and patted him on the shoulder.

"However, you reminded me about Warcraft. Murphy stroked his stubble, "Most of the demonic beasts came out of the Urso Mountains, and the reason for the siege of the city was mostly because of the abnormal movement in the depths of the mountains, which drove them to flee there, once every three years, and mostly in the summer, so that we built a high wall at the mountain pass to block the attack of the mountains, and we must not let the demonic beasts destroy the production of the steel mill and coal mine."

"If those brute scales win again, will they be able to stop our cannonballs of justice?"

Murphy raised his head confidently, at this time, he was full of confidence!

Marshall secretly smacked his tongue, he didn't expect His Royal Highness the Fourth Prince, who was only eighteen or nineteen years old, to have so many ideas beyond the times, and sure enough, the royal family is talented!

"Let's not talk about it yet, let's test the strength of this fortress?" Murphy waved his hand and shifted the subject.

"Your Highness, please!"

Knight Colin took Murphy's rudimentary fire staff and handed it to Murphy.

"The first step is to test your magic resistance. ”

Carolon had previously added anti-magic potions to the concrete, and guaranteed to increase the fortress's magic resistance to level 3, that is, it could resist the damage intensity of level 3 magic.

Murphy copied the staff, silently recited the spell of the fireball technique in his mouth, and five seconds later, a fireball the size of a basin appeared on the casting end of the staff, which was the largest fireball that Murphy could release now, and the power had reached the level of the medium fireball technique, but the magic control was a little unable to keep up, and the fireball was not too stable.

The fireball condensed, and fine droplets of sweat appeared on Murphy's forehead, and he directly threw the fireball out just in case.

With a blazing heat, the fireball whistled towards the newly built fortress.

"Boom—"

An explosion sounded, and the fortress was unharmed, except for two pieces of dirt, which showed the strength of the defense.

"Yes, Colin, you go on, test your defenses. ”

Colin nodded yes, picked up a man-high longbow, set up a long arrow, attached it to the fighting spirit, and only heard a "boom", and the arrow was nailed to the fortress.

"Your Highness, only the arrow is missing. Knight Colin ran over to take a look, then reported.

Murphy became more and more satisfied, and took out an arquebus and a flintlock pistol with a delicate pattern from the carriage, and handed the arquebus into the hands of Knight Collin.

"The test of the arquebus and the flintlock pistol is carried out together, I shout three-two-one, and we will fire a volley. ”

"Yes, Your Highness. ”

The two of them easily loaded the lead bullet into the barrel of the gun, and after the operation was completed, they raised the gun to aim.

"Three!"

"Two!"

"One!"

"Launch!"

"Bang bang!".

Only two gunshots were heard, and two clouds of smoke and dust were splashed on the fortress, and the bullets of the arquebuses were obviously not as strong as the flintlock pistols, only about three centimeters in, while the bullets of the flintlock pistols were not a full five centimeters, but even so, compared to the defense of the fortress that was thirty centimeters thick, it was only equivalent to tickling.

"Hahahaha! Yes, even if it's a temporary building, this defense is enough to defend against the mob!"
