Chapter 171: A Half-Ton Medal

Blood stained the river green.

The blood of the orcs is green.

The air seemed to be filled with the smoke of the battlefield, and the earth-shaking shouts and killings could be heard, and the scenes of thrilling battles could be heard

Looking at the stumps and severed arms that kept floating on the surface of the river, Luden's eyes were cold and his expression was indifferent, making it impossible to figure out what he was thinking.

"Ponger won."

Even without Luden, everyone can come to the same conclusion.

Victory!

This great victory is destined to leave a strong mark in the history of the Shenbang Republic!

Even if Ponge dies of a heart attack now, it will not affect his evaluation in history.

Because he was the first Terran commander in the past eight hundred years to defeat the orcs head-on.

Moreover, as the tide of battle evolves, Ponge still has a chance to counterattack the orcs.

When the beast tide recedes, use Snow River City as a base to cut off the beast tide and further expand the results

In the pre-war outlook, the ideal situation is realized little by little, and the balance of victory is tilted in favor of the state of God!

After standing by the snowy river for less than ten minutes, Ludon turned and left, and at the same time ordered to go down,

"Send the men to clean up the river, scoop up the orc corpses, burn them intensively, and pay attention to drinking water and food to prevent the plague"

"Raise the alert level to the maximum, and the legion will fully take over the defense of Snow Valley Town"

"The street lights inside and outside the town have been repaired, and night lighting is very important to prevent orcs from attacking at night."

“”

There is no need to celebrate this victory.

Because, the more difficult battle is coming soon.

With Lu Deng's instructions one by one, the entire Snow Valley Town was busy, making final preparations for the war.

As for mobilization

There is not much mobilization needed.

On the one hand, the main army of Snow Valley Town is composed of the forces of the Yin Sha family, the Saint Thunder Fury Legion.

The former is the old family of the Yin Sha family, and when the Yin Sha family is at its most down, it can follow the Yin Sha family to rise up.

As for St. Thunder's Fury, it's a new army.

The new army was ostensibly under the authority of the El, under the orders of the Senate, and did not belong to any family.

Actually, it's Ludon and Ponger.

The candidates for each echelon were all recommended by Pang Ge, and then interviewed by Luden, and finally admitted.

The training method also abandoned the previous combat mode of the Divine State.

Hoplites?

Light cavalry?

Chariot?

No!

Artillery!

That's right, St. Thunder's Fury, an artillery legion!

Only the roar of artillery can be worthy of their names.

From the very beginning of the build, the group was trained to use artillery, familiarize themselves with the performance, study the angles of fire

St. Thunder's Fury is the only professional artillery legion.

Before the Great War began, one of the elders had proposed that St. Thunder's Fury follow Ponge north and shine in Snowy River City, which was destined to be the fiercest battlefield.

Punger refused, without giving a reason.

He's a ponger, and he doesn't need to give anyone a reason in the matter of war.

There are also patriarchs who propose to let this artillery corps stay in the Divine State and guard the Divine State.

When Ludon traveled to Snow Valley, he insisted on taking the legion with him for a simple reason:

With or without artillery, the Divine State is a Divine State and cannot be broken by the Orcs. …

The patriarchs were a little puzzled by what the use of an artillery corps without artillery was at the front.

At the insistence of the dictator Luden, he nevertheless took this artillery corps.

In addition to the lineage legion, Ludon also has a trump card.

The workshops, skilled craftsmen, backbone and skilled workers in the company have all been transferred!

Of course, Ludon didn't fool them.

He promises high salaries and land rewards, while trying to awaken hatred for orcs.

Ludon found that he didn't need to do anything himself.

The populace of the Divine State hate the orcs to the core.

The poorer the people, the more they hate the orcs!

This is true even for slaves.

Lu Deng could only sigh, "It is indeed much easier for internal contradictions to transform into external contradictions." ”

Hatred only makes people feel relieved for a while.

It was Miso who really inspired people's courage.

Ludon promised that, if he was willing to follow in his footsteps, after the battle, the slaves would be freed and each civilian would be given 2,000 meters worth of land, of course, farther north and closer to the orcs.

Ludon and others threw all their net worth into this war.

Once they win, their loot will be more abundant than anyone could have imagined!

If the Divine State wins and the orcs are repulsed, then the Divine State will further expand on the existing territory!

To the north, the devastated orcs could not threaten the Divine State.

Heading south, the rich peninsula will be subjugated to the feet of the Divine State.

With the Eastern Crusade, the trade routes will be further expanded, and countless gold and silver treasures will pour into the Divine State.

Most of the land on the west side of the west has been incorporated into the territory of the Divine State.

Further west is the sea, and I heard that there are several broken islands on the other side of the sea, which are occupied by orcs, and there is no soil for human survival.

After defeating the orcs, the good days of the state of God have truly arrived!

Moreover, looking at the results of Ponge's battle, the Divine State, which has advanced by leaps and bounds in science and technology, wants to resist the beast tide, and the difficulty is not as great as expected.

For the orcs of the Cold Weapon Era, artillery can be regarded as a certain degree of dimensionality reduction strike.

As long as his logistics can keep up.

Ponge needed more artillery, more shells, more gunpowder

These things, the reserves in Snow Cloud City, can't meet Pongge's needs.

Supplies such as shells and gunpowder can be solved by Luden.

What to do with artillery?

You can't rub your hands in Snow Valley, right?

While everyone else was busy, Luton found someone - Jeff in charge.

The vice-president of St. Peter's Sanatorium, the steward of the Jager family, now helps out in Snow Valley.

Ludon took out a map and handed it to the other party,

"This is a map of the water pipes in Snow Valley Town, bring your people, as well as the dwarves and migrant workers of the craftsmen, to dig out the water pipes."

Dig out the water pipes?

Jeff didn't understand, why do such a thing at such a critical moment?

Fortunately, there have been so many things that he doesn't understand over the years.

Jeff is used to it.

As Ludon had ordered, he called for men and went to the location to begin the excavation.

Of course, Jeff didn't forget to call out his young master.

Dressed in black and white striped clothes, Laien squatted beside the dirt pit and watched the people work. …

After a while, the water pipe was dug up.

When the soil was cleared to reveal the original appearance of the water pipes, the crowd fell silent.

They had never seen a water pipe like this.

Cast iron, extremely thick, with one end sealed

Ludon calls this thing a water pipe?

Jeff has seen some defenses in Snow Valley these days, and only after inquiring did he learn that it was called artillery.

The water pipe in front of you is more like a large cannon!

Bigger than any artillery Jeff had ever seen.

"Why are you still stunned?!"

Lyne, dressed in a black-and-white striped outfit, stood up and shouted,

"Dig a water pipe!"

The people who came to their senses no longer cared what the water pipe was and continued to excavate.

Not long after the excavation work was underway, the elder Sirui rushed to hear the news.

"Dictator Luden, the Senate needs an explanation."

Looking at the excavated land in front of him, Elder Sirui's face was gloomy,

"What the hell is going on with these 'water pipes'?"

First of all, a thing is called a pipe, at least the two ends must be connected, right?

The iron pipe in front of the patriarch of Kesri,

More like a cannon barrel.

Well, the barrel is also a tube!

Secondly, the town of Snow Valley is close to the Snow River, and part of the town is simply built on the water.

Is there really a need for water pipes in a place like this?

Elder Sirui has been in Snow Valley Town for so many days, and he has never used a water pipe!

Why would the Palace of Greed allocate a large amount of money to build a water pipe in Snow Valley Town that it didn't need at all?

Why did the underground water pipes suddenly become so strange?

The ability to transport these cannons to Snow River City, Lu Deng can't do it.

You can hide in Snow Valley Town, and when the war starts, use the Snow River to transport it to Snow River City

This little thing, Lutdon can still do.

Even the patriarch can realize that something is not quite right with the strange water pipe in front of him!

And, looking at this stance, it seems that this water pipe can be turned into another object - artillery after simple treatment!

You don't even need to deal with it at all!

It's artillery!

The barrel is even specially treated with anti-rust and moisture-proof, and there is a fixed position on the barrel, and an iron hook can be used to pull it up with a sling!

In the face of Elder Sirui's troubles, Lu Deng explained unhurriedly,

"As you can see, we're digging a trench to keep out the orcs, and unfortunately, we found the water pipe just below the trench.

The good news is that we can hang the pipes, which saves us a lot of time digging trenches.

The bad news is that after the war, the town of Snow Valley will need to lay new water pipes, and I believe that with the grace of the Senate and the Palace of Greed, they will not care about these small sums. ”

Elder Sirui's face was gloomy and uncertain.

He took two steps forward and said in a low voice,

"Luden, damn it, I don't care what you and Punger are going to do, I grew up watching Punger, even if the Janger family is ruined, as long as Pongge is there, everything still makes sense"

Elder Sirui babbled a lot before he said the main point.

His expression contorted, and he roared,

"The Senate has explicitly forbidden large-caliber artillery to leave the Divine State, Luden, are you crazy? Do you want to make an open break with the Senate! ”

It can be seen that he is really in a hurry.

Hearing the words of Elder Sirui, Lu Deng suddenly realized and said loudly,

"Elder Sirui proposes that these water pipes can be converted into artillery, and the workshop will work overtime tonight to verify Elder Sirui's idea!

If it is done, it will be a great achievement, and everyone's overtime pay will be doubled! ”

Hearing Luden's words, numerous dwarves and humans sped up their work.

Is it a water pipe or a cannon pipe?

Ludon said it was a water pipe, and that was a water pipe!

Finger cannon for water.

Elder Sirui: ???

When did it become my proposal?

How did he get pulled into the water too?

"This is the second wisest proposal of the year by the Senate, after nominating me as dictator."

Lu Deng held the hand of Elder Sirui tightly and said from the bottom of his heart,

"When this war is won, I will issue you a half-ton medal as a dictator!" . .
