Wayne said solemnly.

"There's a serious matter!"

Seeing Wayne look like this, Bald put away his playful mentality. Shen asked.

"What's going on?"

Wayne didn't explain much, but got to the point.

"Barnfinger is gone!"

Balder, who was well versed in military affairs, knew what that meant.

"Damn! The artillery is too heavy to fight in the field. And if we were to reinforce Vasser, this infantry and cavalry would not be enough, and Medina had also fled. We don't have any advantage over the elves except for armor, and we used to be sent to death. ”

Waynton said.

"The main thing is that Barnfinger has run away, and Vasser is like losing his backbone. We'll just have to wait a little while for the Imperial Army to arrive. ”

Balder paused, relieved.

I took out the map and looked at the black chess market. Shaking his head, the terrain there is dangerous, even if it is captured by the elves, but after a little repair, it is a Xiongguan. I can't attack this little force of my own.

Then his gaze continued to look north, and Wayne had been watching there for a long time.

Finally they looked at each other and smiled.

Attack the Elven homeland!

"Remember not to fight, as soon as the elves are defended, you will withdraw. You're going to be dumplings later!"

Balder smiled slyly.

"Don't worry, we may be back in a month at most. ”

Wayne nodded reassuringly.

"You go and attack, Beson is in charge of training, and now Nolan has to have someone in charge. We can't afford to take a risk. ”

Balder nodded.

"Alright, you're ready. I'll see you off when you leave!"

Wayne also left the barracks.

When I came to the workshop, I watched the two-person blast furnace continue to emit black smoke. Wayne was both pleased and guilty, happy that the workshop had expanded a lot over the past year, and had been increasing recently. The guilt is that the beautiful natural environment of another world is about to be devastated under the rolling tide of industrialization. There is also a new glass workshop.

According to the trend, in a few years, Nolan will become a fog capital.

It is precisely because of pollution that we must develop industry even more, and only by developing industry can modern science develop by leaps and bounds. When science develops to a certain point, the problem of industrial pollution can be solved.

Of course, there is another argument: if you don't develop industry, you won't have a pollution problem if you live an idyllic life. Wayne could only say a fart.

The public knowledge of the previous life is to pretend to be confused.

If we don't develop industry, will we wait for the earth's energy to run out? Trapped on Earth?

Before the Industrial Revolution, the average life expectancy in the world increased from more than 40 to 70 years, the standard of living was greatly improved, and the so-called famine was no longer the most terrible natural disaster.

Without the Industrial Revolution, it's like Nolan. The streets are filthy, and most of the people are malnourished and yellow-skinned. Nolan is still a wealthier city, with a literacy rate of only two percent.

If not the Industrial Revolution, continue to live like this?

Suddenly Wayne felt a knock on his head, and he didn't have to look to know who it was. Who in the whole of Nolan would dare to do this to him?

"Audrey, why do you follow wherever I go?"

Audrey turned to anger.

"Who is with you, I'm here to settle the score! I thought you came to me to apologize for the morning!"

Wayne then reacted, this unseemly princess came to her own workshop to do the bookkeeper!

"Okay, I said the wrong thing. ”

Wayne pleaded.

"Hmph~, count you as acquaintances!"

Audrey looked proud.

"Speaking of which, there are tall chimneys here that can be made of iron. You made it?"

"yes, what's wrong. ”

"I didn't expect you to be so powerful! ”

"Okay, first heat the charcoal to about 1200°~1300° and make it into coke..."

"Stop, stop, princess Ben knows you're good, don't talk about it. ”

Audrey looked annoyed.

Wayne was deliberately playing tricks on her.

Audrey asked cautiously.

"According to you, we live in a round place?"

Blinking wide, curious eyes, he leaned in front of Wayne.

Wayne could feel Audrey's breath exhaling and asked about her body odor. My face is suddenly a little hot!

Forget it, don't play tricks on her.

"It's round indeed. You didn't listen to the first few lessons before you understood why it was round. To use an analogy, if the place where we live is flat. Then when the ship comes from a distance, it should be seen as a whole, not the mast. ”

Audrey thought for a moment.

"Definitely. It's not the same as what the holy books in the church say, but it feels more credible to yours. ”

Then he asked worriedly.

You are denying the correctness of the Holy Book, and you are denying the Church. The church knows it's going to come back and beat you!"

Wayne laughed.

"Let's not talk about how far away the papal state is, princess, what do you see around me. ”

Audrey frowned and said tentatively.

"Stove?"

"Wrong!

"Iron?"

"That's right!"

Audrey was still puzzled.

Wayne explained.

"You look at the steel I train every day, this is still Nolan's place, or Nolan is not fully developed. And it is this steel, cast into cannons, hard and armor. In the future, make the artillery smaller, and the carriage can also be towed. At that time, who would dare to say that the idea of beating Nolan was borne. If the Papal States come to attack, hopefully there will be more Papal States in the future. ”

Audrey thought about it, and it seemed like this was the reason. Thinking further, the sensitive political sense of smell generated by the royal genes is also reflected in Audrey.

Audrey quickly thought of a terrible reality and said cautiously.

"Then do you want the whole ...."

Audrey didn't dare say the last two words, but Wayne was aware of it.

Officially.

"Either way, you will always be Princess Rune. ”

Audrey also read what Wayne meant.

"Can you grant me a request? ”

"Say!"

"Don't you, while my father is alive..."

"Does it matter?"

"It's okay, my father has loved me the most since I was a child, and he's been seriously ill lately! Father, he can't help tossing. ”

After saying that, Audrey hid her face and cried, and quickly ran away.

Wayne immediately caught up.

Waiting for Audrey to run to the office, she was in pain. The people around him looked dazed.

Wayne quickly felt after calling the others out.

Said comfortingly.

"Have you ever thought about it, even without me, do you think that throne can be passed on for generations. This time the elves dared to attack in a big way, that is, the royal family of Rune was weak. Most of the land in Rune was controlled by the nobility, and the royal family only held a small part. And now the empire seems to be peaceful, and the three counts have a friendship with your father. If you wait for your father's death, who will recognize the next emperor? When this generation of counts dies, will the next generation of counts have any ambitions? You can guarantee that people's hearts are unpredictable. ”

Audrey's sobs gradually became quieter, how could she not understand the sinister nature of politics when she lived in the palace since she was a child?
