Chapter 232: Fireworks

Due to delays on the way, the Grizzly didn't arrive in Redwoods until noon, which took twice as long as expected, but still shocked everyone. Pen Fun Pavilion wWw. biquge。 info

The carriage carrying the goods, which travels during the day and rests at night, takes at least more than three days to arrive.

And now, I had breakfast in Black Iron Town in the morning, and slowly vacated the door, and it was not time for lunch in Sequoia Town.

Watching such a behemoth slowly drive into the station, the shock in Momiji's heart was even more indescribable.

She now finally understood why Renault had spent so much gold to build the railway, which had cost almost all of Renault's money, but the last four carriages alone contained the same amount of supplies as the previous ten days.

The city hall of Tuke City Hall is less than 300 kilometers away from Sequoia Town, and if it is opened to traffic, it will only take half a day to reach Black Iron Town.

Moreover, Renault also said that if every town in the Tuke Basin is connected to the train, the transportation of grain and various materials will become easier and faster.

"Lord Renault, you're finally here. ”

In addition to Momiji, there were also Bucky and Vivi who came to greet Renault and Mia, and they didn't stop too much in Sequoia Town, but went directly to Shuangqiao Town.

After enjoying the smoothness and speed of the train, when she got into the carriage again, Mia was already feeling extremely uncomfortable, no matter how soft the seat cushion was, she felt bumpy, and the road was bumpy.

She was even a little worried that if she had to live in the royal capital for a long time one day, she would be able to get used to the rhythm of life in the past.

Renault and Momiji sat alone in the spacious carriage, and Renault couldn't help but smile as she looked up and down as she stepped out of the shadows and regained her sassy and elegant temperament.

This is the momentum that can only be found in good times, she is full of energy, and the mayor must have done a good job.

"What are you laughing at?"

Seeing that his eyes were staring at him all the time, Momiji's face was a little hot.

"I'm wondering if it's going to be easier to get around in the future, should I let you come to Black Iron Town every week to do a work report. ”

"How long is a week?"

Renaud slapped his forehead and suddenly remembered that there are only demon gods and no gods in this world, so naturally he doesn't understand what worship is.

"A week is 7 days. ”

"Why do you want to divide it like this?" Momiji blinked puzzledly, "The year is divided into twelve months, a month of thirty days, why do you have to divide the prayer into seven days?"

Renault shrugged helplessly, he couldn't make up the ridiculous excuse that "it took 7 days for the demon god to create the world".

"Of course, this is taking into account the working days and rest days, and the factories in Black Iron Town and Sequoia Town have always worked six days and one day off, don't you notice?"

"I thought the number of 7 days had something to do with the Demon God Ruins. ”

Renault couldn't help but admire her brain, everything could be associated with the ruins of the Demon God.

He felt that instead of thinking about the ruins of the demon god every day, it was better to think about how to build an airplane cannon.

Seeing that he didn't speak, Momiji thought that he didn't want to talk about such a big secret, so he changed the topic: "According to my investigation, the Black Sheep family's army has been assembled, and it must be coming soon." ”

"You also sent someone to investigate?"

Renault was really a little surprised by this, after all, in his conception, territorial defense and government affairs were absolutely separated.

The purpose of saying something good is to reduce the burden on officials, and saying something bad is to prevent some people from supporting their own troops.

Although I can't see anything at the moment, but in the future, if the mayor can mobilize the army, it will definitely be a chaotic situation of "separation".

Seeing him making such a fuss, Momiji couldn't help but be angry: "How can I say that I am also the mayor, and if I don't command the army, can't I care about and understand the situation?"

"Okay. Seeing that her face was red with anger, Renaud asked amusedly, "Then what do you know, can you share it with me?"

"At least more than 70,000 troops have been assembled on the banks of the Naxi River, and Black Sheep City has collected and mobilized 1,000 large ships to go upstream, and I think they will come soon. ”

This is similar to the data obtained by Renault, and it seems that Momiji did conduct a serious reconnaissance. And looking at the worry in her eyes, she obviously didn't believe that relying on those strange woods and 5,000 recruits along the river, she could resist the 70,000 cavalry of the Black Sheep family.

However, Renault did not think about this problem, he was calculating how many cavalry 1,000 ships could fit at a time.

The wooden boats of the Black Sheep family were larger than the merchant ships on the Naxi River, and they transported cattle and sheep on the rivers of Naxi Lake and the south all year round, so it was not a problem to stuff 200 war horses into each boat.

If 1,000 ships are driven together, that's 20,000 horses.

If the flood in Shuangqiao Town is put down, can it kill 1,000 ships at once?

Renault thought it was unlikely, after all, except for the mountainous area around the Tuke Basin, the Naxi River was relatively stable. No matter how big the flood is, it will become non-lethal when it reaches a wide section of the river.

Therefore, if you want to destroy the Black Sheep's ships more, you can only wait until they enter the narrow and steep section of the river, and the time must be controlled very precisely.

In this era of no long-range communication, it is still difficult to grasp this opportunity.

Renault had set up numerous makeshift sentry posts on the mountains on the south bank of the Naxi River, and used fireworks to relay messages once the Black Sheep's ships began to enter the canyon area.

It only takes a few hours for the town of Shuangqiao to get the signal to open the gates and release the water, and the flood will meet the fleet of boats that have entered the canyon in about 15 hours.

Of course, this is only the ideal situation, and the flood is uncontrollable once the floodgates are opened, and the more than 100 kilometers of the river is full of too many invisible elements.

And to fill up the water again, it will take half a month at the earliest, which is the cooldown time of the "flood skill".

So what the result is, you can only do your best and obey the destiny of heaven.

Neither he nor his army had experienced such a large number of wars, and the more people there were, the more uncontrollable factors there were

Under Baji's urging day and night, it took only two months for the town of Shuangqiao to build two dams.

Of course, this is inseparable from Weiwei's powerful demonic power.

As long as the small pieces of steel are roughly placed, she can perfectly blend them together, and she can definitely top 500 high-power welding machines alone.

From a distance, the water surface has become incomparably wide and sparkling, and the two dams resemble two steel giants lying horizontally in the afterglow of the setting sun.

When Renault stepped on the ground of the dam platform with his first foot, the mobile phone in his arms suddenly made a crackling sound.

"What sound?" Mia, who was beside him, could hear it clearly.

"Is there a sound?"

Renault pretended not to hear and looked around, he could share any secret with others, but this one was absolutely not possible.

Mia looked at him suspiciously: "You didn't hear it, the dinging just now seemed to come from your chest." ”

"I didn't hear that!" Renault continued to play dumb, "maybe my heartbeat." ”

Mia looked at him angrily, she didn't want to say it, forget it, what else is the heartbeat, whose heartbeat is like this, is your heart also iron?

After prevaricating Mia, Renault saw dozens of huge gates to the south all the way, and finally came to the island in the middle.

A three-story building was built here, garrisoned by several hundred people, and on top of the building there was a battery for four howitzers.

This is to prevent someone from sabotage, and so many huge floodgates are all dependent on manpower.

There is a large stone monument on the head of the dam, which is carved with the words "Mia Dam", and the other side of the island should be "Renault Dam".

Seeing her name being engraved here, Mia's mood suddenly improved. But these words are very expensive, and she bought them for 3 million gold coins.

As the sun sets, the clouds lose their brilliant colors and the sky begins to become heavy.

On the mountain ridge in the distance, a brilliant firework shines.

Bang -

The fireworks in the distance have not completely disappeared, and beautiful flowers bloom on the roof of the dam.

Colorful light illuminates the surroundings and casts a brilliant color on the surface of the water.

"It's beautiful!"

Mia couldn't help but admire, but she didn't know that this beautiful fireworks represented the imminent death of hundreds of thousands or more lives.

The war between the Black Sheep family and Renault has finally begun. (To be continued.) )
