However, these data did not attract much attention from the outside world, especially the Krull people, because the various industrial products produced by the Daheng Empire are still mainly low-end products, and in the impression of many Krull, the Daheng people are still barbarians.

Now for the Krull Kingdom, the biggest thing is still the Orr War!

This war, which has caused the Krull Kingdom to bleed for a year and cost countless military funds, is still going on!

So far, the Krull Kingdom has mobilized a total of 800,000 troops from its homeland and various colonies to participate in the war!

For this reason, nearly 1.5 billion Hengyuan of military spending of the Krull Kingdom has been spent!

Of course, the cost of more than 100 million Heng Yuan, compared with the Heng Olympic War more than 60 years ago, is still a small thing, the Ji Dynasty of the Great Heng Empire spent nearly 10 billion military expenses in the Heng Olympic War, what is the concept of this number, it is roughly the sum of the many foreign wars spent by the major powers in the first 100 years.

However, the Hengao War is too special, except for a few years of large-scale landing operations in the middle, in fact, before the large-scale landing, the two sides have been engaged in land wars in the area of the Kasi Kingdom and the Kingdom of Tanor for many years, and as for the sea war, it lasted for more than 20 years.

Strictly speaking, the Hengao War was a war that lasted for more than ten years, and in the last few years, Daheng gritted his teeth and directly sent millions of troops to land in the Orissa Empire.

And it's very iron-clad, I have to play cross-sea and play landing operations, and send more than a million troops and the coalition forces of the entire southern continent to the death!

In the Age of Sails, the cost of just maintaining a large army of more than a million people far from home was astronomical.

The statistics of tens of billions of military expenditures actually include all the military expenditures over the years, and the statistical ability of the Ji Dynasty at that time was too scummy, so it actually included a lot of messy expenditures.

At the same time, waste and corruption are extremely serious.

There have even been cases where the quartermaster department purchased tens of thousands of top-grade Nanzhou war horses from the mainland, but in the end, when they were transported to the Olisa Empire to fight, there were only more than fifty left, and the rest went there, saying that some sea transportation died, but in fact, it went, or whether it was really purchased so much, that only those people knew back then.

The 10 billion military expenditure of the Heng Austrian War is too water, but the 1.5 billion Heng Yuan military expenditure of the Orr War of the Krull Kingdom is real.

The progress of the times and the change of the mode of war have led to the higher and higher cost of war, even in the age of steam, ships and trains are more convenient to transport, but the consumption of ammunition is also greater!

The troops at the front casually fought a battle of tens of thousands of people, and the artillery shells consumed were tens of thousands!

Last winter, the Krull Kingdom tried to launch a large-scale campaign to defeat the Orr Kingdom in one fell swoop in order to win the war.

In the end, the Battle of Karan Heights broke out between the two sides!

The Krull Kingdom sent about 100,000 native troops and about 300,000 overseas colonial troops, a total of 400,000 people to participate in the battle, and the Orr Kingdom sent about 500,000 troops to fight!

The Battle of Kahlan Heights was the largest, longest-lasting, and deadliest battle of the Orr War!

During the battle, a total of 350,000 shells were fired from the Krull Kingdom on the one hand, and nearly 200,000 shells were also fired from the Orr Kingdom!

In this battle, the artillery shells consumed by the Krull Kingdom even exceeded the Battle of Jingzhou during the Unification War of the Daheng Empire!

The Battle of Jingzhou was not a battle, but actually a series of large-scale battles around Jingzhou, including the Battle of the Southern Front of Jingzhou, the Battle of Jingshi, and the Battle of Zhenbeicheng.

In addition to the shells, the consumption of bullets is also very large, with more than 30 million rounds of rifle machine gun ammunition on the side of the Krull Kingdom and 20 million rounds of ammunition on the side of the Orr Kingdom.

Such a huge consumption of ammunition naturally means a huge amount of military spending!

In addition, the Krull Kingdom is a labor expedition and the beginning is bigger, so it also leads to the Krull Kingdom spending more than 100 million Hengyuan in military expenses a year.

This figure has already exceeded the annual military expenditure of the Lin Dynasty during the Daheng Unification War.

During the War of Unification, the peak period of military expenditure of the Lin Dynasty was in the first year of Qiansheng, that is, during the Battle of Jingzhou, and the military expenditure of that year was about 700 million Hengyuan.

And the Krull Kingdom spent fifteen billion a year!

In addition to the huge costs, the Krull Kingdom has also lost three battleships, several cruisers, more than 50,000 dead and missing officers and men, and countless wounded in the past year.

The cost is huge, and the loss is not small, but the Krull Kingdom, which has paid such a huge price, still can't see the hope of victory!

Even, they have not been able to enter the hinterland of the Orr Kingdom so far, except last summer, the Krull Kingdom recklessly launched a landing operation of 30,000 people, and was finally ambushed and annihilated and only escaped back 5,000 people This battle took place outside the hinterland of the Orr Kingdom.

At other times, the battle areas between the two sides are around the area of the Venabe Kingdom and the Andel Kingdom, although these two places belong to the side of the Orr Kingdom Alliance, but they are not the native hinterland of the Orr Kingdom after all!

And the Kalan Heights is located in the central region of the Venabe Kingdom, this highland is strategically important, if you want to enter the hinterland of the Orr Kingdom in a big way, you must first conquer this highland!

It's a pity that the Krull Kingdom has not been able to defeat it so far!

A naval battle of Ian shocked the navies of various countries around the world and directly led to a major change in the navies of various countries.

The land war in the Orr War also had a huge impact, and the process and results of the Battle of Karan Heights were repeatedly studied by military observers from various countries, and finally came to a conclusion: fighting a war is too expensive......

After the navy studied the Battle of Ian, at most, it affected the design of the warships and changed the tactical thinking, but the battle between the two armies in the Orr War made the army generals of many countries frown.

The cost of this war is too expensive!

Those Krull people fired more than 300,000 shells in a battle of Karan Heights, and these shells alone were worth more than 10 million!

In addition to the amazement, many new weapons have also shown great power in war.

All kinds of rear-loading rifled artillery have almost become the absolute protagonists in the war, and both the defender and the attacker must rely heavily on the fire support of artillery.

The artillery units of both sides showed great tactical value.

In addition, the large-scale use of heavy machine guns on both sides of the war also made the armies of various countries attach great importance to it!

In fact, the application of heavy machine guns in the Orr Kingdom is not too early, it is only a year or two, and a considerable number of heavy machine guns were only purchased from the Daheng Empire in the months before the outbreak of the war, and some of them were purchased from Daheng through various unconventional means in the past year, and transferred by land through a third country.

It is the first year-type heavy machine gun that is in active service in the Daheng Imperial Army!

In the case of the Krull Kingdom, the heavy machine guns they use are naturally their own research and development, but they are all water-cooled heavy machine guns like the first year heavy machine guns of the Daheng Empire, because the heavy machine guns of the Krull Kingdom are imitations of the heavy machine guns of the Daheng Empire, and they are also given patent licensing fees......

In other words, although there are some international patent agreements on the Blue Star, it is obvious that all countries do not take it seriously, especially in the field of national defense.

Generally speaking, technology licensing, more often than not, you can't do it yourself, you spend asking others to teach yourself, and you spend money to buy technology, not just licensing.

The MK series of heavy machine guns in the Kingdom of Krull actually began to be equipped on a large scale only last year, and after the outbreak of the Orr War, it was found that the effect was very good, that is, it was quickly mass-produced and sent to the Orr battlefield, well, at the beginning, because of the lack of domestic production capacity, they also found Daheng people to purchase a batch of heavy machine guns.

The heavy machine gun performed quite well in the Orr War, which quickly attracted the attention of the armies of various countries!

Just like the A series torpedo boats that became famous in World War I, the heavy machine guns of the Daheng Empire can also be regarded as famous in World War I, and then ushered in large orders from various countries!

The technology of heavy machine guns has long been leaked, and the major powers have basically begun to imitate production, and even the Olisa Empire in the south is already a shameless imitation, so the Daheng Empire has also relaxed the export restrictions on heavy machine guns since last year.

Just like all kinds of weapons that are allowed to be exported, as long as you give money, you can sell them!

Even the Northern Six Nations Alliance in the north, fools know that they will purchase a large number of heavy machine guns to be attached to the West Sea Corridor, but the Great Heng Empire still sells them!

Why?

Because the arms dealers of the Orissa Empire in the south also sell heavy machine guns to the Six Nations Alliance in the North!

Anyway, they all have to be equipped with heavy machine guns, and if they let the Olisa people make this money, it is better to sell them heavy machine guns themselves and make money first.

In this case, in the eyes of many outsiders, Daheng people are all funny, and they actually sell weapons to their enemies!

However, the high-level leaders of the Great Heng Empire actually didn't think about saying that they had to break out a war with the six northern countries.

The six northern countries are extremely barren, what do you want, what's the use of beating down?

Besides, how to deal with the people of the six countries after the defeat? Directly annex and turn them into Daheng people?

This is impossible, in the history of Daheng's thousand-year expansion, there has been no precedent for trying to turn foreigners into its own people.

The previous expansion of the Daheng people was as long as the land did not want people!

If the people of other countries are also annexed, and the alien races also seize their own resources, the people of Daheng would rather not expand!

The Great Heng Empire, which has been a single nation for more than a thousand years, was, is, and will continue to be.

But if you don't annex other people, will you be able to slaughter them all at once?

Although this is what Daheng people did in the past, the times are different now.
