Chapter Twenty-Eight: Dwarven Express
After learning about the construction of the camp, Lin He was left with the mercenary union's side. Deputy Head Cohen had long looked like he wanted to say something, and it seemed that he must have important news to report to him.
At this time, Gray also brought the head of the regiment over for dinner. A large bowl of noodles with an enticing aroma, combined with the omelette on top, will whet your appetite just by looking at it.
While eating, I listened to the report of Deputy Chief Cohen, and finally learned about some of the situation within the empire in the recent period
According to Deputy Head Cohen, the situation in the southwestern province is out of control. At the same time, the trade federation has announced the official entry into the conflict of the southwestern provinces.
The slogan was that unknown forces in the four southwestern provinces had attacked the Trade Federation's offices there. Incalculable property damage and casualties were caused. They need to send relevant units to enter the country for investigation, and by the way, they have also issued a large list of compensation.
The content is so large and the quantity is enough to sell the four southwestern provinces three or four times.
Of course, in order to show the fairness of his demands, and to put pressure on the side of the Empire. At present, opposite Blackwater City, and more than a dozen trade federal task forces have been assembled. Among them was the Trade Federation's famous Longbow Force, a total of 100,000 troops gathered on the border, which put a lot of pressure on the Empire.
Not only in the direction of Blackwater City, but at the forefront of the traditional confrontation, the recent Trade Federation on the Bluewater River front has also increased its troops on a large scale. And dozens of armed clashes at the squadron level have already broken out, with thousands of dead and wounded on both sides.
At present, the imperial side has urgently increased its troops in the southwest. The Sixth Army Corps was transferred from the vicinity of the imperial capital, and the two reserve corps of the 3571st Army were transferred from the remote eastern region, and are currently urgently dispatched to the four southwestern provinces.
Relative to the outside, the current internal situation in the four southwestern provinces has begun to get out of control. Three of the four provinces have already declared autonomy by their governors. At present, because of the operation of the Trade Federation, as well as the cooperation of internal forces. Prices soared throughout the southwestern provinces, and a large number of landless and bankrupt peasants and handicraftsmen, guided by the fallacy of ulterior motives, gradually began to respond to the agitation of the autonomous government and spontaneously rallied to the major cities of the province.
Because of the serious shortage of troops, the 19th Army Corps and the 25th Army Corps entered the southwest region in advance. It is gathering in the fortress of Blackwater City, which can withstand the military pressure of the Trade Federation.
The city defense army, which belonged to the second-line army, had for the most part declared itself to be under the command of the autonomous government, breaking away from the control of the imperial military. Although no attack has yet been made, if this posture continues, the pressure on the nineteenth and twenty-fifth legions will be multiplied.
At present, the fastest to rush to the southwest region is the Sixth Army Corps, which belongs to the Imperial Capital Defense Circle. It is also one of the top ten legions of the empire that is famous in history, and belongs to the strongest field legion of the empire. The dispatch of this powerful top army to the southwest region also shows that the imperial side intends to solve the southwest problem by force.
As for the 3571 two reserve corps, that is, the strategic reserve of the Reich. The combat effectiveness is also a little stronger than the general city defense army, and it is estimated that these two legions will be sent to the province to deter relevant forces in the country.
"Commander, the first batch of material mercenary unions has made it necessary for us to send it to Fallen Leaf City within ten days!"
"Didn't you send it to the southwest, why should you have an idea again!" Putting aside the rice bowl in his hand, Lin He, who wiped his mouth, stood up and stretched comfortably.
"The 71st Reserve Regiment will pass through Fallen Leaf City in 10 days, and the first batch of supplies will be handed over to the Legion on the spot!"
There are such good things, so if you negotiate the freight or something, do you find a reason to deduct it? But now that the empire is in trouble, isn't it a bit of a fire robbery if the freight is deducted?
It's really embarrassing!
"Commander, the mercenary union took the initiative to compensate us for 30% of the freight! In addition, this is the second additional purchase of supplies, and we hope that we will prepare them as soon as possible. In terms of price, the mercenary union has increased the settlement price by 20%! ”
And such a good thing? As a result, the official document handed over by Deputy Head Cohen was carefully checked to confirm that it was not forged, and then he sat down and opened the official document to see how the mercenary union could be so generous.
Seeing the joy of the captain, Stafford took the initiative to bring a candlestick and leaned behind the captain. By the way, he also stretched out his head to check the official document together.
10,000 Imperial knives, 5,000 spears, 5,000 longbows, and 100,000 arrows. As for the long list of materials at the back, Lin He didn't have the heart to read it anymore.
I only saw the settlement price of the bottom three million gold coins, which made Deputy Captain Staff's beard burn and couldn't care about it.
"Commander, we're here!"
"Call Rodman here!"
"Who?"
"Captain Airship, call him to me as fast as you can!"
Half an hour later.
The goblin airship, which was urgently refueled, under the command of Captain Rodman, rushed headlong into the night sky in the distance against the cool night wind.
Captain Rodman had only one task on this trip, and that was to bring Patriarch MiG back to the camp as quickly as possible, and the message was only one sentence: Big business comes to the door, come quickly!
Unable to see the navigation lights on the airship, Lin He and his party walked towards the conference room again. A long-distance flight at night is still dangerous, and if it doesn't work, it will end in the destruction of the boat and the death of people.
But Captain Rodman, who received the task, still set off without hesitation, just because the task was personally given by the regiment commander, and he also took a group of deputy regiment commanders to see him off, so it was worth fighting for this trust.
"Commander, this procurement task, whether we accept it or not!" Several deputy regiment commanders followed Lin He's ass, desperately wondering what the regiment commander thought. Such a large purchase amount is enough for everyone to live a life without shame for the rest of their lives.
"Wait until the MiG patriarch arrives, the most important thing for us now is to hand over the first batch of supplies on time!"
"What the head of the regiment said is that we will prepare separately!"
"Alright. Everyone is gone, see you tomorrow! Unconsciously, everyone had come to the door of the group leader's bedroom, and looking at the group leader's ill-intentioned eyes, everyone scattered in tacit understanding.
Just as the crowd dispersed, a team of dwarves of tens of thousands of people was moving slowly in the direction of the Sunset Grand Canyon. Even though it was already 10 midnight, the whole team had no intention of stopping.
In this team, the largest number of people were transporters who drove horse-drawn carts and led mules and horses. In front of the transport team, the MiG patriarch personally led a pathfinder team of 500 people, who were nervously cleaning up the debris on the road, and the damaged road surface would be repaired in time.
Sending the goods responsible for their group as quickly as possible is the latest order of the group's top management, in order to complete the first business since the establishment of the group on time, the entire mountain dwarf tribe can be said to have fought hard.
All the carriages, pack horses and other means of transport were gathered at the first time, and the unloaded supplies were distributed to the accompanying security department, each carrying fifty kilograms of steel ingots on their backs on the way to the Grand Canyon of the Sunset.
At this rate, they are expected to walk for two days and two nights without sleep!
