Chapter 753: Subsidies

"This time, the royal family will distribute some war resources for free, and if you buy weapons and equipment from me, I will also do some subsidies, probably two percent. If...... You really don't have any money......"

When Xia He said this, everyone laughed, those who can go on an expedition across the sea, even if they are small nobles, are not so poor.

"Of course, if you have money, you can also take out an interest-free loan with me until the end of the war. The loan amount is 20% of the cost of your equipment purchased from me. In other words, you can buy weapons and equipment on my side at 40% of the usual purchase price, of course, there is an upper limit, but I estimate that it is enough for everyone. ”

When the nobles heard the news, they were naturally very satisfied.

Forty percent of the purchase price, plus twenty percent of the loan, was repaid after the end of the war, without interest.

Of course, no one knew that Xia He's own subsidies would be soft, and he would send more than 300,000 people. The entire northern theater of operations has just over a million troops.

The heavy troops of the empire are all gathered in the south, mainly because the demons in the northern theater are weaker.

"When it comes to buying equipment, when the meeting is over, you can go to Cottonjack. Now let me talk about how our army arranges its itinerary. ”

Xia He began to point on the map and lay out the means of battle.

The nobles listened more seriously, and some people brought more than 1,000 people, all of whom were the elite of the family, so they naturally did not dare to slack off. With so many nobles, the number of castles to be built is also amazing, the big river is bent, along the big river, the Xia River is built every fifty miles.

Castles are large and small, and the forces are not evenly distributed, probably one out of every five castles will be slightly larger.

"Of course, I will do the construction of the castle, I applied for a subsidy for this part, about fifty percent, and the remaining fifty percent are out by yourself, no opinion, right?"

There is still no objection, and the construction of the castle requires the dispatch of magicians, and this part cannot be discounted.

You tell the magician to discount it? That means when you lie on the hospital bed and want to have surgery, you say to the doctor, can you cut less? 6% off?

Not only that, everyone is quite grateful to Xia He, and feels that Xia He can be the commander of the northern nobles.

Because Xia He can apply for a subsidy, up to 50% of the subsidy!

The royal family took on the most dangerous mission, attacking the Demon Realm Passage, but it was also the most rewarding mission. Everyone is not strong enough, of course, they can't compete with the royal family. Therefore, subsidizing the nobles who are responsible for the defense of the perimeter is also something that the royal family should do. After all, there is not much benefit in fighting the demons on the periphery.

The loss of soldiers is almost inevitable, and now there are more robots, and robots are not money?

Robots are not cheap at all, and the only advantage is that they have a high recycling rate and no need for pensions.

The robot is cheap, that's for Xia He, the price he sells to the outside world is about the same as the royal family, he doesn't dare to drop the price too much, so what else does the royal family earn?

The Nine Academies have also launched Robot Warriors, and everyone's prices are very close, and some minor functions are deliberately staggered.

Of course, Xia He refused to pay for it himself and applied for subsidies, and the royal family was originally only willing to give 20%, so Xia He said that if you build less fortresses, it is more likely that you will miss the enemy. He built so intensively, it was not a single layer of defense, and the cost was several times more.

Xia He dared to say it directly, and the royal family was helpless, so they had to agree to his request for a fifty percent subsidy.

Xia He doesn't expect to make much money in the Demon Domain, the matter of the Demon Worm, he has already earned it, and the nobles of the West Coast, it is also a problem to deal with it after killing the Demon Worm, Xia He will charge a certain fee to deal with the Demon Worm for everyone in the Tower of Babel.

Later, he no longer needed to collect the corpses himself, and a large number of demon insects were sent to the Tower of Babel every day.

If you don't deal with it, these demon insect corpses will pollute the environment very badly, and it will cost a lot of mage resources. If this weren't the case, it would be impossible for Xia He to refine the soul origin so much, enough for the Taiyin Immortal Mansion to advance and merge into the goblin world.

Now it is not called the goblin world, and it is directly named the Taiyin Realm by Xia He.

Attacking the Demon Domain, for all nobles, is a dedication. It's just a matter of consuming your own strength to make a living space for this world.

In Xia He's view, the system of this world, the aristocracy, etc., does not have much merit.

The nobles of the Arcane Empire still have a little bit of principle, and they are willing to make sacrifices, which is already a rare quality in ordinary civilization.

After distributing the tasks, it is time for Xia He to sell the products.

He opened the half-plane passage in the Tower of Babel, and released the mountains of materials, and the nobles paid for them. With the purchase ceiling, the nobles still have a little regret, after all, this time it is a big price reduction, and there will be no such a good opportunity next time.

Plato and Duke Hesse, both of them are very strong, and Xia He is also polite to the two of them.

In particular, he discussed with two people the timing of the march, the deployment of troops, and so on. The royal family prepared for it in May before issuing the order for a general attack.

Xia He and the armies of the two dukes went all out to attack the Demon Domain.

The new purification artillery advanced inch by inch, and in one day's effort, the demon domain was opened up by Xia He for three hundred miles. Along the way, castles began to be built, one every fifty miles, between the castles, there were also mechanical fortresses, no human soldiers were added, only some mechanical warriors were left on guard.

The core of the castle was all set up by Xia He's people to use it for overall defense and build a magic net. As for the outer city wall, the mages used local materials, turned mud into stone, petrification, constancy and other magic, and built the tall six-pointed star castle one by one.

The core of these castles was designed by Xia He himself, don't look at the money paid by the nobles, but the real control is still in Xia He's hands.

In this battle, in the end, everyone will divide the cake.

You don't pay for it, you sit on the empire's soil, and you don't get anything.

In the magic array, Xia He arranged purification methods, and in the purification methods, the technology of the Dao Gate was hidden, absorbing the power of the earth, and constantly strengthening the castle itself.

Integrating the power of the nobility is something that must be done in the future, and Xiahe will take precautions and lay out the layout in the New World first.

The emperor must have known Xia He's thoughts, and he didn't stop him, which in the eyes of the nobles, the royal family's favor for the Xia family was still very high.

The large corps fights, Xia He has no experience, but he has training. This time, the chariot battalion and the flying battalion were dispatched, and there was no legend among the demons, so they were crushed all the way.

In other worlds, the demons are almost invincible, but when they encounter the legions of the main world, they are used to repeatedly touching nails.

Three hundred miles deep into the Demon Domain, the first large castle, Xia He was handed over to the management of the family from Claude, Claude himself is the commander of the legion, and has been disconnected from the family, but Xia He still takes care of it. This castle can accommodate tens of thousands of people, the Claude family only took out a thousand troops, and Xia He added two additional battalions.

Xia He took good care of the nobles who took refuge in him, and in addition to having to work hard, logistics and assistance were in place.

The most afraid of fighting a war is that there is no logistics, and the most afraid of not having support, and the nobles of the other northern theaters are all envious when they see it.

However, the other two dukedoms are also good to their subordinate nobles, Plato and the Duke of Hesse, may not be as good as Xia He in technology, but they are definitely rich, and they both occupy their own worlds.

Moreover, people have occupied it for thousands of years, tens of thousands of years, and the amount of accumulated wealth is amazing.

The six-pointed star castle is not divided into levels, the core area is the same, and the outer area is different in size. It can be multiplied outwards with a six-pointed star building structure as the core.

In the three-hundred-mile area, after the Xia River entered, there were not so many castles stationed, and many troops were camped on the barren land. Airships and warships were patrolling the air, not daring to slack off.

Although the Flying Demons are afraid of human legends and flying weapons, as long as they are the slightest negligent, they will pounce.

North, inside the makeshift fortress, a small group of human soldiers huddled in cramped fortifications, at least two soldiers, wearing helmets and observing the news in their goggles. There are only five people, and they have to take turns to rest.

One hundred cyborg soldiers, ten mechanical builds, responsible for the defense of the outside.

"When?" asked the armored soldier as he lay in his sleeping bag, yawning.

The well-dressed soldier glanced at the magic clock on the goggles and said, "It's night, twenty-one o'clock." ”

"I'll sleep for a while, wake up in the early morning, and you're on your guard. There is something, Big William is in charge. ”

"You sleep, I'll watch. "William is the accurate scorer in the team.

The armored soldier sealed the sleeping bag, isolated the sound, and soon fell into a deep sleep. These sleeping bags for individual soldiers are also magic products, which can allow soldiers to fall asleep quickly and get a better resting space. There is good support underneath the sleeping bag, and it doesn't matter if you throw it in the mud, you can even float on the mud and it won't sink.

Along the way, this squad was commanded by armored soldiers, and they also had to receive orders from above, and they were mentally exhausted.

And all the mechanical structures are also commanded by him.

"William, do you say, can we go back alive this time?" asked one of the soldiers, holding his magic musket.

"God knows, it doesn't matter if you can't go back, as long as you don't get demonized. I heard that our badge has the ability to collect and purify souls, what are you afraid of. ”

"Well, I'm also afraid of being demonized. Damn the demons!"

"Great William, there's a monster approaching. ”

"I'll see. William put on his helmet, pushed on his goggles, and began to check the footage of the mech-soldier's transmission.

I saw thousands of monsters approaching slowly on the sandy ground in the distance, and they didn't seem to be too big, like crocodiles, with short and thick legs, and no scales on their bodies, but pimple balls of flesh.

"It's disgusting, but it's not dangerous, it's less than level five, our sentry is too far ahead, and you'll encounter wandering monsters. ”

"Great William, do you want to call for support?" asked one of the soldiers.

The precision shooter scanned it and found a six-pointed star airship nearby, so he communicated with the airship. When the airship heard the report from the ground, it lowered its height and saw thousands of demons moving forward on the ground.

That's more than 6,000!

The magician on the airship said, "Give me a backup, a team on the ground can't guard the sentry." ”
