Chapter 318: Oversleeping
Feng Longde couldn't remember what he said to Caroline after that, but he had a vague impression that he was silent for a while, and then chatted with Caroline about the experiments she had been tinkering with, as well as the characteristics of large arthropods like crab spiders, and finally seemed to go to bed, as for whether Caroline went back to her own room to rest or continued to go back to the magic laboratory in the basement of Fort Headquarters to tinker with research, he really had no impression.
It was already close to midnight when he returned to the headquarters fort, so Feng Longde climbed into bed and slept until the next afternoon, and it was hard to say if it weren't for the routine of the human servants who cleaned up the room and pushed the door in to clean it.
Having slept enough, Feng Longde was naturally a hundred times more energetic, but since it was almost dusk after he had gotten up and tossed all the steps of washing and dressing, he could only sit alone in his room as a night owl, reading books, playing games, etc. - while almost everyone in the Teutonic camp was busy with work or training on the first day after the Christmas vacation, their immortal king was alone and lazy and did not work
Of course, although Feng Longde was lazy, he was not completely out of work: this day's combat skills training was automatically ignored in the past, but Feng Longde communicated with the guards knights for a long time through soul connection, and asked them to convey his instructions.
For example, some new changes to the equipment of the Boghall soldiers.
In fact, there is not much change, but due to the fact that the productivity of the current armor factory has increased a lot compared to before, Feng Longde decided to let them produce a batch of new steel helmets, heavy chain mail and plate armor accessories that match the heavy plate armor, and distribute them to the Boghall soldiers when the time comes, so as to further improve their battlefield survivability.
The helmet, naturally, is nothing else. The Charrell helmet was a special model for infantry use, and was equipped with a double-layered shield made of cotton armor and heavy chain mail, just like the Teutonic prisoner of war rangers, so that the head protection of the Burglor soldiers was both comprehensive and comfortable, after all, except for knights who had been trained for many years, ordinary soldiers were not used to being stuffed in a fully enclosed metal helmet for long periods of time. In addition, the Boghall soldiers will each receive a pair of plate shoulder armor and a pair of plate armor wrist guards to improve the protection density of their joints and limbs.
The current armor factory has begun to mass-produce plate armor in small quantities, but in view of the fighting style and comprehensive strength of the Boghall soldiers, it is not appropriate to let them wear full-body plate armor to fight, so Feng Longde is thinking about equipping them with plate chain armor - whether the Boghall soldiers are pikemen, Riflemen and two-handed swordsmen all need to move their limbs in a wide range to use the weapons in their hands to fight, and the full-body plate armor will limit a lot of their swinging movements in battle, and they must not lose too much flexibility for the sake of protection; Feng Longde thought of using plate chain armor, which is not too much worse than the full-body plate armor and much lighter armor type to arm the Burghall soldiers, as for the full-body plate armor, then let the black knights of the guard knights or the military personnel of the deceased in the future equip it, they are far stronger than ordinary humans, and the comprehensive level is enough to ignore the cumbersomeness of the full-body plate armor, and that kind of flexibility problem is really not a problem for the deceased.
In this regard, Feng Longde also considered whether to let Zhu Henghong and other corpse witch soldiers be equipped with Teutonic Gothic plate armor, but after understanding it through the connection of the soul oath, he temporarily dispelled this idea: the physical strength of these seventeen corpse witch soldiers has just stepped into the level of the iron corpse witch with one foot, at best a little stronger than the human soldiers of his colleagues, but it is still a long way from being able to wear the Teutonic Gothic plate armor. It is still far from reaching the level of the black knights of the Guard Knights, and these Boghall soldiers and corpse witch soldiers obviously need years of precipitation and soul accumulation. Otherwise, even if they were to equip them with a full set of Teutonic gothic plate armor, they would at best be exhausted and lay down a little later than their fellow human soldiers
There was nothing else to say, and Feng Longde didn't play the game for long, and he didn't read the book for a long time before he had to turn his head again, so he contacted Caroline through soul contact before going to bed, and after learning that the training and production construction of the internal team in the Teutonic camp had returned to the previous rhythm, he slept with peace of mind.
"How do I feel a little back to the state I had a long time ago, when I woke up and finished eating, I read books and played games, and then continued to sleep" Lying in the hot quilt that had been covered for almost a day. Feng Longde closed his eyes and thought in a daze, "But I slept enough today, and my spirit is enough to nourish enough, so I can get up tomorrow, it's really not for me to set an alarm on my mobile phone." But then again, I've been in Gensokyo for almost a year, and I haven't used this thing much, so I almost forgot what to do with it."
☆
In the Teutonic camp on the eastern shore of the Lake of Mist, a knight of the Guards standing on the top floor of the Headquarters Fort looked at the sun that was beginning to rise over the horizon in the east, and raised a horn that was chained around his neck in the cold fog unaffected by its temperature.
The horn let out a long, dull sound that echoed over Fort Headquarters and in a small circle around it.
With the sound of the trumpet of the knight of the guard, a trumpet of the same rhythm soon sounded in the Teutonic camp: all the knights of the guards who stayed on duty, in addition to their weapons and shields, were the horns that everyone needed to carry with them - the knights of the guards with the horns could either blow the horn to make a brief and rapid sound to inform the entire Teutonic camp when they needed a warning, or they could use the horn to blow a long sound to tell the time, which could be regarded as making the best use of everything.
Feng Longde opened his eyes and saw the familiar ceiling and walls.
After closing his eyelids back and forth a few times, Feng Longde quickly woke up, then crawled out of the bed and began to transform the pajamas on his body back into the form of armed clothes.
Now Feng Longde has perfected the aspect of using his own flesh and blood full of the Ron virus to build clothes, so to speak, as long as he wears clothes for a period of time or allows him to get the corresponding clothing design drawings. He can be self-sufficient in his clothes with his bare ass, and he doesn't have to worry about style, style, and size - although Feng Longde's soul heart is generally making average progress in learning those obscure magical theory knowledge and soul theory knowledge, but in these messy things, this thing has always been full of energy, and all talents are crooked in this regard
Wasting some effort and time, Feng Longde put on the whole set of Teutonic gothic plate armor on his body. Reverted back to an airtight state, and walked out of the room after putting on his weapon.
Under the horrified gaze of the male and female servants, Feng Longde, who was carrying heavy armor, solved his washing problem in the bathroom, and then walked to the dining room by himself, and began to enjoy the fresh breakfast that had just been prepared and put away.
Usually Feng Longde basically washes first and then wears his armor, but that's because he used to get up early in the morning and go to the toilet to open a "big" first, wearing a Teutonic Gothic plate armor is ironclad and there will be a very high danger of pulling a pants Today, Feng Longde's stomach rarely has a rare sense of peristalsis that wants to excrete, so he changed the Teutonic Gothic plate armor in advance to save trouble.
"Alright. It's December 27th today, and it's time to start training and working" Standing on the training ground, Feng Longde held the unbladed practice two-handed sword in both hands, and quickly glanced at the guards knights who were not far away as sparring partners and also held practice weapons in their hands, and gradually leaned towards him, "Start now!"
☆
After Christmas, there are only six days left in December and almost a week to go, and the new year is quietly approaching.
In the course of less than a week, Feng Longde returned to his usual busy state from the lazy life of vacation. It can't be said that it is busy, but it is enough to be in a hurry.
The first level of the Teutonic camp is nearing completion. However, there are still nearly two weeks before it is fully completed, but most of the places have already been built, and there are Boghall soldiers and guard knights on duty in turn, and there are also personnel from the weapons factory who place corresponding heavy equipment on the city walls and towers, such as various German anti-aircraft guns in World War II, Teutonic heavy stone throwers, Big things like the giant ballista and the Romulud flamethrower can be said to be the technology and production staff in the weapons factory, although the heavy weapons produced come from the two very different technical applications of alchemy and technology, but the central idea is clear. That's the cannon mount bombarding the damn, fighting for the density of firepower projection and the intensity of the enemy's lethality: not to mention, come up and bomb you first, and then rush over and beat you
Although the combination of the dual technologies of the Teutonic Empire and the Third German Reich is definitely not to be underestimated in terms of power, there is still a problem: that is, the lack of corresponding technical personnel.
The problem in this regard is very serious, after all, whether it is a magic crystal cannon or a cannon. Even if it is the most primitive Teutonic heavy stone thrower and giant ballista, these are all required to be controlled by special soldiers to exert the maximum combat power, but they are not ordinary two-knife soldiers can be used indiscriminately, in that case, like not hitting the enemy target is the luckiest result, often either hit their own head or simply blow themselves up, so Feng Longde and Adolf, who are aware of this problem, have taken time out of their time to lead some guard knights and technicians transferred from the weapons factory to frequent exchanges in the human world in the past few days, pay them well to recruit the skilled inhabitants of the human population who are eager to enlist as Teutonic soldiers, and then have the technicians of the weapons factories teach them how to operate the heavy equipment in battle.
Although the training of technical soldiers is not as physically demanding as that of Boghall soldiers or Teutonic Tomahawk Rangers, it is very much a test of practical hands-on ability and brain cells: these technical soldiers or artillerymen who will later operate all kinds of heavy weapons need to learn a series of processes to operate them every day under the guidance of the technicians of the weapons factory, shoot at the targets marked in the open field, and the theoretical professor of ballistics basically Feng Longde also took Caroline to see their training, these are obviously just the novice artillerymen who have successfully graduated from the temple house, all of them have a dead virtue in their hearts, apparently scaring them silly with its huge theoretical curriculum
However, there is no way to do this, the higher the technical level of weapons and equipment, only soldiers with the corresponding level of knowledge can be used, which is true both during the Teutonic Empire and in this period of human history. Real life is not fiction, those who can train a group of illiterate or semi-literate illiterate and stupid illiterate people into the world's strongest army in a short period of time is simply not possible, as far as the current situation is concerned, Feng Longde estimated that these novice artillerymen said something else, and if they practiced to the death for three or four months, they could not hit their own heads, and basically hit the position closer to the target, which was quite good, unless they experienced one or two actual battles, otherwise don't expect these guys who are now in a hurry to load a bullet to become veterans.
Speaking of which, what Feng Longde lacks most at present is not money, but manpower, manpower in all aspects.
In terms of finances, on Christmas Eve, Feng Longde negotiated with Marisa and Alice, the two magicians, in the private room on the second floor of the tavern, and Marisa and Alice also came to Fort Headquarters with Pache in the past few days, the purpose is to buy a large number of synthetic magic crystals of various departments: after the bargaining of Caroline and the group of lich mages, the Teutonic camp sold a batch of synthetic magic crystals in more or less quantities, but what they gained was the various magic potions, alchemy products, formulas, and The profits from other magical materials and large amounts of money or valuable precious metals and gems have brought the financial balance to a surplus, so it can be said that the Teutonic camp does not have to be too financially troubled and can concentrate on its development.
But the problem of manpower is quite tricky: there are quite a lot of people in the human world, but whether it is recruiting soldiers or conscripting workers, Feng Longde is forced to do these things without affecting the normal rhythm of life in the human world, and judging from the fact that the Teutonic camp is developing faster and faster, his manpower is definitely not enough at present.
How should the problem of manpower be solved? How should the scale of production and construction be expanded, and how should the armed forces continue to be expanded and made comprehensive? These are the problems that Feng Longde has the most headache at present. (To be continued.) )
