"I would like to invite His Highness Charles to say a few words. As you must know, many of the new weapons used in this battle are related to His Royal Highness Charles. ”

After George on the stage finished speaking, he looked at Charles who was sitting in the middle of the first row of the audience with a smile.

This was the third day after the night raid was completed, and after Charles returned to Wutong City with the team to rest for a day, he attended a briefing on the operation in the auditorium of the military headquarters in Wutong City the next day, and today was the discussion, analysis and summary meeting of the operation.

At the meeting, representatives of various units in the Wutongcheng area took to the podium to express their views, focusing their attention on the new tactics and new tactics brought about by the new equipment, and finding problems, making suggestions, and offering good strategies through these three battles with their own characteristics.

Representatives of the logistics troops noted that for the first time in this battle, motor vehicles were used as carriers of combat units, with great success, and the speed of movement of troops was increased exponentially. In the foreseeable future, motor vehicles will inevitably replace animal-powered vehicles as the main force of military transportation. What we should see is that after the large-scale deployment of motor vehicles, the existing troop establishment will inevitably change as a result. The logistics department should set up a professional mechanized transport unit, which includes driving, maintenance, engineering, energy support and other arms. Even if the motor vehicles cannot be in place in time, the team should be set up with the existing equipment first. We can wait for the equipment, we can't let the equipment wait for us.

The commander who commanded the sneak attack on the logistics base that night said that the new motor vehicles have played a tremendous role in enhancing the combat effectiveness of the front-line troops. Front-line troops should set up specialized transport detachments directly under the brigade, and it is better to achieve full mobile transportation. We should note that the motor vehicles at this stage cannot meet the requirements of the battlefield, and the defense and comfort of the vehicles need to be improved.

This time, the representative of the ballista brigade who did not participate in the war spoke that with the installation of new equipment, the carriage and ballista equipped by the ballista brigade have lagged behind the development of the times in all aspects. In the future, long-range fire support weapons will certainly be the product of the combination of motor vehicles and weapons such as the "Charles Pipe Organ" and the "Charles Big Pineapple." To this end, the entire ballista brigade has been prepared to replace with new equipment and provide rapid, effective and accurate fire support to its colleagues.

The representative of the archers believes that the replacement of bows and arrows by muskets is the trend of weapon development, and although the current muskets have shortcomings such as slow reloading, low accuracy, and insufficient power, these shortcomings are not impossible to correct. At present, we should equip more muskets as an important secondary weapon for archers, familiarize ourselves with the use of muskets, and study and explore new tactics and new formations.

......

The deputies spoke enthusiastically, and the atmosphere was warm, and they all said that the new equipment should be brought as soon as possible, and the more the better.

Seeing that the battle summary meeting had turned into a new weapon meeting, George, who had a black line, simply threw Charles to the front desk to attract firepower, so as not to annoy these guys all day long.

George was named, and Charles couldn't help but bite the bullet and walk up to the podium.

Thanks to the blessing of "Charles's Well", Charles can now be regarded as a celebrity in this area, and he is still the kind that can get eighty-five percent off by brushing his face when he goes to the city to eat.

So the audience and the participants applauded.

It's just that Charles, who just walked to the stage, also has a black line, and he doesn't know what to say for a while.

None of these elves are stupid, their long lifespan gives them plenty of time to learn and think, and the slow change of personality keeps them from becoming the kind of old pedant who can't eat the old.

Curious, they can run down the road themselves as long as someone points out a road, which makes Charles basically miss the standard outfit of the traverser who relies on the knowledge of his previous life to guide the country.

But Charles wasn't completely speechless, and when the applause stopped, he figured out how to get past today's incident.

In view of the fact that the representatives of various ministries at today's meeting are all asking for new weapons, he said in a slow voice: "Weapons are an important factor in war, but they are not the decisive factor, and the decisive factor is the user of the weapon, not the weapon itself......

Charles concluded today's summary meeting with an impromptu speech on the relationship between man and weapons in "On Protracted War", and at the same time raised the importance of the conference to a new level.

After the meeting, the elves who attended the meeting came forward to shake hands with Charles, and praised his speech for being commanding and deafening.

At this time, the benefits of a bullish ancestor appeared, and Charles modestly said that this was the wisdom of his predecessors, and he had only learned a little bit. And I talk so unscrupulously on stage, it's good if everyone doesn't take off their shoes and smash me.

We won't smash our shoes, you can rest assured. One of the elves who shook Charles' hand said that they would have to pay for new ones if they smashed their shoes, so they would only smash the stools in the auditorium.

After the meeting, George personally took Charles to the logistics warehouse in Sycamore City to do supplies.

Previously, in order to seize the magic crystals stored under the fish-man fortress, Charles emptied the explosive inventory in the storage ring and made a large firework.

After returning, it was seized and returned to the public, and the vacated space naturally had to be filled again.

After replenishing the supplies, Charles signed the handover form.

Then George patted him on the shoulder and asked, "When are you leaving?"

"Rest for one more night tonight and leave early tomorrow morning. Charles replied.

"Then be careful yourself. George said to him, "The one next door to my west is not very talkative, and you would be better off dealing with her." ”

"What's the situation?" said Charles, a frown.

"Well......" George sighed, "she's been hurt by humans before, so she hates them." ”

Charles let out an "oh" and nodded his head in understanding.

After leaving the warehouse, George had a lot to do, while Charles wandered the streets by himself.

True to the city's name, the streets of Sycamore City are lined with rows of tall plane trees.

At this time, it is already late spring and early summer, and the plane trees on the side of the road are like huge sun umbrellas that have been stretched out, blocking the sunlight in the sky.

The water system here is fairly developed, and several small rivers less than ten meters wide pass through the city.

When the elves built the city, they dug two of the small rivers and connected them with a small lake half the size of a football field and more than a meter deep.

There are many long aquatic plants growing at the bottom of the small lake, many of which have grown to the surface of the water and bloomed small white flowers on the water.

Groups of small colored fish less than the length of a thumb that reflected the sun's rays passed among the aquatic plants, and from time to time they were frightened into the aquatic plants by large fish with thick arms passing by.

The meadow surrounded by water on three sides is where the elves relax on weekdays, and Charles sits on the shore, blowing the wind, watching a few retired old cadres fishing, and not far behind them is a bard performing arts.

The bard sang the story of the original lying on the grassy hill, and when Charles heard that he was nine feet tall and nine feet waist, he gave up the idea of giving a reward.

If humans continue to fight at high intensity for too long, they will have psychological problems due to mental exhaustion.

Before setting out from Osmanthus City, Elizabeth had warned him not to fight for too long, and that he had to rest for fifteen to twenty days.

Charles felt that the two-day meeting had already adjusted his spirits, so he planned to leave tomorrow.

As the sun began to set in the sky, Charles left the water's edge and headed for the nearby restaurant street along the river.

After replenishing a large bunch of spherical bratwurst hanging like grapes, a small restaurant not far away attracted him.

A row of steaming casseroles in front of the store attracted Charles.

The water in the casserole boiled, and the boss put the sliced chicken pieces and cleaned snails into the boiling water, and then added spices such as fresh bamboo shoots, ginger slices, and purple leaves, and finally closed the lid.

So he went to order without saying a word.
