In fact, at the beginning, as the second brother, Nguyen Van Viet just wanted to borrow the technical strength of the developers of the automobile center to transform the technology of gunpowder weapons and the technology of cannons. In his eyes, the ability of those people who can only write and calculate to make money by doing new things is even more powerful than magicians.

The purpose of the improvements is to replace the more expensive magic guns, or at least to provide a cheaper option that can be mass-produced, even if it is weakened.

This is due to the fact that the transport force within the Chamber of Commerce has increased significantly after the use of cars and vans. Not only has the capacity increased, but the demand for manpower has also decreased.

But the purpose of human beings is not just to move and transport goods. In the Lost Land, people also shoulder the responsibility of guarding, protecting the transport convoy through natural hazards, and resisting the attacks of monsters and beasts.

The decline in manpower requirements also means a decrease in the number of escorts for transport fleets. Vehicles made of ordinary metal do not have an absolute advantage in speed. How to effectively resist the attack from the wild nature has become a new problem.

Increasing the number of guards is an option, and it is the method that is being implemented at this stage. However, Nguyen Van Viet, who helped the eldest brother, believes that enhancing personal strength can also be a way.

And in addition to personal cultivation, one way to increase one's strength is to use good equipment. The reason why guns and weapons are not chosen instead of swords and armor is because guns are long-range weapons, the greatest weapons in war and battle.

Although there is no such thing as an inch long or an inch strong, it is certainly better to be able to deal with the enemy from a distance than to fight to the death at close range. So the firearms improvement program was put on the table.

It's just that the automobile center is a tripartite cooperation industry. Now that the center knows, the other two partners also know.

Of course, a certain miraculous traverser was disdainful of this kind of gunpowder weapon in the initial stage, and he didn't even think about climbing the gunpowder technology tree again. To build a nuclear bomb, it is better to study the nuclear explosion magic, which is relatively easy for him to complete now.

But for a powerful Grand Duke family, this technology is still quite valuable. Compared to magic of the same level, the cost of a cannon is much lower.

It's not about the cost of using it, it's about wanting to train a magician who can use strategic magic, and sometimes it's really not something that can be smashed with money. On the contrary, artillery and artillery units can be smashed with money.

Therefore, gunpowder weapons are not completely worthless in the Lost Land, but they are not as good as the traditional weapons in the Lost Land in the choice of weapons for individual soldiers. This is the limitation of the vision of a magician who travels alone from north to south.

It's just that in any case, the cannon technology is someone else's. But now that it's in front of you, you can use it. The rest is just a matter of price.

For the Nguyen brothers, the accumulation and progress of new technologies need users and testing grounds. They will take out such things, and they will also have this in mind. If you can exchange some money, of course, you will not object.

So, the artillery unit of Grand Duke Kaveh was formed.

According to the evaluation of a certain traverser, before the flowering bomb was developed, the real place where this traditional artillery team could play was still in the siege of the city. When it comes to dealing with the military, it is more about mental deterrence than killing or wounding people.

Perhaps in such an environment, the technology tree of gunpowder weapons will go out of the way that belongs to the Lost Land. A bystander commented on it.

But now, this team is not the main reason for refugees to dare to storm the borders of the Gwana Empire. But they still appear on the borders of the Empire, tasked with defense.

In fact, in doing so, the young Grand Duke of Kaveh was also full of bitterness. In all fairness, anyone with a little compassion will not be unmoved when they see such a scene.

But the consequences of letting refugees go unpunished are just as dire. He also has the emperor behind him. In the face of this kind of thing, he did not dare, and he was not qualified to make rash decisions. Even if the boss is around, it can't change much reality.

But fortunately, only the refugees gathered in front of them, and the demon army was still dragged on the land on the other side of the mountain by the magic towers lined up. Even if the military disaster comes sooner or later, it is not an immediate trouble.

As for the survival of the refugees, the most important food problem is not a big problem with the full assistance of the Jialong Chamber of Commerce. Fresh after the harvest season, and supported by highly powerful trucks, large quantities of grain continue to be transported to where they are needed most.

Refugees need life-sustaining rations, and the Gwana Empire needs war reserves. The Imperial Machine may not have really kicked off yet, but the roar of the trial run was enough to resound throughout the world.

In fact, the Sulitan Empire is too, but he chose the path of Mingzhe to protect himself, and it seems that he is ready to go all the way to the black.

If the Gwana Empire had a choice, it is estimated that the old emperor sitting in the center would make the same decision. At most, send some leftovers to fight demons, and barely contribute to this life-and-death plane war.

But if you let the demon alliance into your own territory, it will be a complete matter. If you don't do your best to resist, will you have to sit back and wait for the country to die?

So the key turning point was just before the combined forces of demons and orcs reached the Wind Emperor Mountain Range. Will they stop or cross the mountains?

If you cross the mountain range, which the empire regarded as a natural barrier to the north, then a war of the kingdom is inevitable. If the Demon Alliance chooses to stop, then the headache will probably be replaced by the Sulitan Empire.

That's why the overlord of the north is still carefully building a defensive line. One of the main reasons why he remained silent even if most of his country was invaded. I just don't want to divert the attention of the demon alliance to myself.

Count on another empire to be willing to fight head to tail and work together to solve this trouble from the abyss. It's better to count on the demons and orcs to commit suicide on the spot, and the abyss gate suddenly exploded, directly ending this.

Such a thought is the same regardless of whether it is the Gwana Empire or the Suritang Empire.

The refugee problem was quickly resolved, though not completely.

Considering the abyssal invasion wars recorded in history, except for the battle that was resolved by the Great Sage's Tower more than twenty years ago, the other battles were all brutal battles that lasted for at least one or two decades and fought to the last drop of human blood.

More importantly, the scale of the recorded Abyssal Invasion is not as large as the current one.

At least no one had heard of the arrival of the Abyss Lord in the early stages of the war. It was only after several battles that were regarded as flesh and blood mills that there were enough sacrifices to summon a certain Abyss Lord to descend.

This means that there is little chance that this group of refugees will want to return to their hometowns. It is not possible in at least one generation, and it may take two or three generations to solve this scourge from the abyss.

It may even be ...... The area occupied by demons and orcs will become part of the Lost Lands, a reality that no one can change.

Since there is no home for these people to return to, there are only two options left for the kings or emperors of other countries. Kill them all, or accept them.

The old emperor of the Gwana Empire, Armin? Kazarnia has been in power for decades, and he has never seen any strong winds and waves. A problem of this magnitude was a nuisance for him, but it was not unsolvable.

If nothing else, he needs more manpower in the face of the coming war. At the same time, we must not allow these people to feed the enemy and strengthen the enemy. It's not about mercy, it's just about considering the pros and cons from the perspective of the empire.

But accepting this group of people who have nothing is also not unconditional acceptance. First of all, those who bring their families with their families, those men and women who belong to the young and strong are arrested, and their family rolls can be properly settled. It's a fair exchange.

Among these people, there were many soldiers who were originally soldiers of the Southern Front. It's just a fiasco and flight, so they have to abandon all their weapons and equipment, dress lightly, and flee from the team, just to retain more chances to live.

And the truth is, they did survive. And to protect his family, he crossed the dangerous mountains.

These people just need to provide armament regardless of their previous suspicions, gather and train again. Although I dare not say that I can pull out a strong army, at least I am a qualified soldier.

The second group of people who were accepted were young men and women who had fled alone. These people are not burdened by human feelings, and they may not be willing to devote themselves to the next war against the abyss. It may be that he is afraid of death, or he may have failed once, and his fighting spirit has been crushed.

If such people are left alone, there is a high chance that they will cause trouble. Wandering outside are bandits and bandits, and with the crowd are ruffians and bullies.

However, these people are also quite important labor, and of course it is impossible to leave them idle and become wasteful. So how to use such a person has become a big and small problem.

Considering that the refugees will not have much furniture with them, they will have to find a new source of income if they want to live in a new place.

For a war, in addition to the manpower fighting on the front line, there are many places where someone needs to help. So it's not hard to find jobs for these people, and they can even trade their daily food rations for their labor.

As for those who do not do anything, they are considered to have committed adultery with intent to commit crimes. Although they will not be killed, they will be thrown into the most tiring and dangerous places, and they will be urged to work to death with whips and swords.

The absence of slavery in the new era does not mean that these barbaric thoughts and actions are extinct. Especially when someone is looking for death, and the war is ahead, no one will give the slightest sympathy to such people.

And the old and weak among the refugees...... There are no such people. Because this kind of person can't afford to travel tirelessly, he will leave the team in the process, or die. There was simply no chance to cross the mountains and seek refuge.

But unexpectedly, there are still children who survived strongly.

Some of them have been lost with their parents and families. Some survived with the help of other well-wishers. Others quickly got used to this kind of escape life and made full use of their children's wisdom to survive.
