The efficiency of the Lion King squadron is very high, it only took less than an hour to complete the arming, and there are no traces of arming on the appearance at all. All the chariots were scattered around the Silver Tower, and they were all concealed with various materials, so that the Silver Tower became like an iron bucket, and Duke Dozan would be very satisfied if he knew about it.

Cheng Lei still had a lawsuit and puzzlement at this time, and after arranging these, he went to the meeting hall in the silver tower. Duke Dozan was waiting for a meal with two maids at this time, and even in this time of war, Duke Dozan refused to give himself any grievances.

On the long round table, there are more than a dozen large dishes, not only a variety of delicate meat, vegetables and fruits, but also fish and prawns that are not produced in Yinta City. This ** guy! Cheng Lei couldn't help but curse in his heart, this guy is so unreasonable!

When Duke Duozan saw Cheng Lei coming in, he hurriedly greeted him and said, "Mr. Cheng, please sit down and dine together!" I thought you would have to set up for a while, so I didn't invite you. I also thought that when you were done, I would ask the kitchen to cook a table for you. Now that you're done, let's dine with me and pour Mr. Cheng the wine! ”

Cheng Lei was not polite, and after sitting down, he picked up the elbow on a plate in front of him and began to gnaw. After a busy day, I was really hungry, and a beautiful maid poured Cheng Lei full of wine, and Cheng Lei took the wine glass and drank it all. The unique aromatic smell of the maid made Cheng Lei a little confused, and when he came to this gentle village from the battlefield of iron and fire, anyone would be a little difficult to hold himself.

Duke Duozan saw Cheng Lei's appearance and said with a smile: "Mr. Cheng and your men are really the strangest army I have ever seen. ”

Cheng Lei couldn't help but be stunned when he heard this, and asked, "How can Your Excellency the Duke say this?" ”

"Haha...... Mr. Cheng, don't think too much, I mean, I haven't seen any army that doesn't harass the people, and Mr. Cheng, your mercenary guard is like that. What's even more strange is that your people didn't even look for women, and none of the mercenary guards appeared in the major brothels in the city, don't you think it's strange? Duke Dozan said with a smile.

Cheng Lei was a little relieved: "Your Excellency the Duke is talking about this!" Actually, it's nothing, the most basic military rule of the mercenary guard has always been that it is not allowed to harass the people and prostitutes, and we are used to it, which is really not worth mentioning. ”

At this time, Duke Dozan said: "You think this matter is not worth mentioning, but I know that it is precisely because of the strict discipline of the mercenary guards that they have such a strong combat effectiveness!" As far as I know, there is no army in the Burning Sun Federation that can match the mercenary guards as a whole. ”

He paused for a moment, and then said, "Mr. Cheng still doesn't know what the Tyrant Mercenary means to us natives of the Scorching Sun Federation, right?" Let me tell you, they mean the top three fighting armies in the Scorching Sun Federation. But their team of twenty people was easily wiped out by your team of dozens without any casualties, which is simply unbelievable! But you did! ”

Cheng Lei said with a smile: "Your Excellency the Duke has won the award!" We're just lucky......"

Duke Duozan waved his hand and said, "Mr. Cheng, we are old friends, so there is no need to be too modest. I know that Mr. Cheng doesn't particularly trust me, but it will get better in the future. Do you know? I calculated for myself that if I could have an army of 10,000 people like the Mercenary Guard, I would be able to sweep through the entire Scorching Sun Federation, and even the distant Western Empire! ”

Hearing this, Lei became interested: "Your Excellency the Duke has won the award, do you mean that there are still some big empires in the far west?" ”

Duke Duozan nodded and said, "When Mr. Cheng came in just now, I thought you had something to come to me, so you might as well talk about your affairs first!" ”

Cheng Lei lit a cigarette, took a sip of red wine in a glass, and said: "I want to ask His Excellency the Duke where he got the two cannons, although these two cannons still have many unsatisfactory points, but the power and range are absolutely enough!" ”

Duke Dozan also picked up a flue-cured cigarette and lit it, and said, "I know that Mr. Cheng will definitely ask about these two cannons, but in fact, these two cannons are not made by the Scorching Sun Federation at all, but the products of the Western Empire that I just said......

"The Western Empire?"

"That's right! Since that's all I have to say, I'll tell Mr. Cheng a little bit about the Western Empire and our Scorching Sun Federation......"

In fact, the Scorching Sun Federation was not called the Scorching Sun Federation at all, and the Scorching Sun Federation was only a small part of the previous large Eastern Empire. There were also large tracts of land to the south and north of it, all of which had been divided into smaller states like the Scorching Sun Federation.

A hundred years ago, it was the most powerful period of this ancient oriental country, and it was still the age of cold weapons, and the cavalry of this ancient oriental country dominated the world. However, its hegemony ended a hundred years ago, and the Western empire coveted the richness of the ancient Eastern countries, developed muskets, and later rifles and cannons, and crossed the mountains from the far west to the East, and has been disintegrating this huge ancient Eastern country.

This ancient kingdom of the East was divided into dozens of small states, all ruled by people from the Western Empire, and a hundred years later it became what it is now. Duke Dozan's ancestor was a general of the Western Empire, and he was assigned to Silver Tower City and became the city lord. At that time, it was not a federal system, but the state cities were autonomous, but later the Scorching Sun Federation was established, and the state cities were still highly autonomous, and the impact was very small.

The previous name of Silver Tower City was not called this, and there was no Silver Tower before the occupation of the Western Empire, and the Silver Tower was built after it was occupied. A hundred years ago, the owner of Yinta City is now a big gentry in Yinta City, and this big gentry is still the largest gentry in Yinta City, and no one can match it at all.

The wealthy families in the north and west cities, and the gang organizations in the south city are simply unable to match the wealthy families in the east city. The entire eastern city is almost controlled by it, it can be said to be the city within the city of Silver Tower City, there are two or three hundred people with guns alone, and the Duke of Dozan does not dare to provoke it. Its name is Xingjiamen, the people in charge of the door are all surnamed Xing, and the name of the owner is Xing Chenghui.

It was only then that Cheng Lei figured out how the people in this Silver Tower City had all kinds of names, nondescript, it turned out that the original invaders of the Western Empire were all Western names, and the original natives were all Eastern names. After a hundred years of assimilation, the language and script of the people from the Western Empire have also been assimilated into the ancient Eastern countries.

Duke Duozan continued, although this person from the Xing family was taken control of Yinta City a hundred years ago, he has a great voice in the underground forces of Yinta City for a hundred years. Duke Duozan has been able to fight steadily until now, firstly with the help of Cheng Lei and them, and secondly, with the support of the Xing family.

Xingjiamen had worked hard in the previous hundred years, and its financial resources and power in major cities were immeasurable. And they also have a very large oil mine in the desert in the north, and you must know that the Western Empire is now the time to rapidly develop mechanization, which will require a lot of energy.

And oil is by far the best of all energy sources, much better than coal. Automobiles in the West have become more popular, and there are naturally more places where oil is used. Therefore, the value of Chengjiamen's oil mines has doubled, and every month Xingjiamen will have a special horse team to pull the oil mines over the mountains and mountains to the Western Empire, in exchange for countless military supplies and gold and silver treasures.

These two cannons were exchanged by Xingjiamen from the West for oil mines, and they were bought by Duke Duozan for a lot of money, and they were only pulled from Xingjiamen today to deal a heavy blow to the rebels. Now the rebels may still be dragging the dead bodies killed by artillery!

Cheng Lei was a little difficult to digest after suddenly getting this information, it turned out that there were so many stories in this Silver Tower City. Moreover, this Xingjiamen made him very interested, and some information could be derived from Duke Duozan's words. This Xingjiamen can get a lot of military resources from the Western Empire, such as guns, such as cars......

In Cheng Lei's heart, cars are what he attaches the most importance to, and his team members, including himself, have the skills to repair cars, but it is really impossible for them to build their own cars. In this way, the importance of the car is self-evident.

And since it is possible to make cars, then the creation of tanks and armored vehicles is not a dream at all. If you can have a tank and armored army, no matter what kind of army it is by then, isn't there no opponent at all?

It's just how to get a car production line and the workers on the production line? Maybe there is no production line at the level of production technology in this world now, and mass production cannot be produced? These are all things that he needs to consider, but he is not thinking about it now, after all, this is just an idea.

"Report to the captain, I killed two scouts on the other side just now, it seems that there is an enemy who wants to enter the Silver Tower to assassinate!" Jin Hanyang ran in at this time and reported to Cheng Lei.

Cheng Lei nodded and said, "Have the brothers all eaten?" ”

"Report, I've already eaten it!"

"Okay, you go and inform Shao Qian, let him gather with their team, and prepare to obey my command, while the others continue to closely monitor the enemy's movements!"

"Yes!"

Cheng Lei stood up, picked up the sniper rifle that was erected on the side, and said with a smile: "It's a pleasure to chat with His Excellency the Duke, but those damn guys still have to be cleaned up!" Your Excellency the Duke rest assured, the safety of the Silver Tower will be entrusted to me, and with me, not a single fly will fly into the Silver Tower! ”

Duke Duozan also stood up, picked up a flue-cured cigarette and threw it to Cheng Lei: "Mr. Cheng, as long as I can keep Yinta City and defeat the rebels, I will share the wealth with you!" ”
