Chapter 112: Air Supremacy (I)

However, after following Du Wei back to Rollin's house, the garrison officer of the Fang garrison, George Bush, a third-class knight, who had taken over from Colo City, felt more and more that his choice was really the right one.

Originally, he was a small officer in the garrison army of that small northern city, although the military salary was a lot, but he was nested in the small city, and the garrison equipment was much worse than that of the regular imperial main battle army.

After following Du Wei back, Robert knew that this was Du Wei who took over the earthly people halfway, so he incorporated him into the cavalry team of guarding the castle and became a captain of the 100-man land cavalry.

The Rollin family is a family of imperial martial artists, and the equipment of the private army is several times better than that of the garrison, even if it is not much worse than the imperial landlord war legion, such as the Storm Legion.

And Du Wei also looked at him differently, because Du Wei was now worth a different amount, but there were not many henchmen around him who could be sent out to handle some private matters.

In this way, this George Bush is a good candidate.He has no background, no father and no mother, and comes from a poor family.He also offended the Holy Knights.,Follow him desperately.With Hussein's secret observation along the way, this kid's talent for martial arts training is also good, and Du Wei will naturally be vigorously promoted.

George is not a stupid person, Robert taught him some of the intermediate fighting skills in the Rollin private army for the officers to practice according to Du Weidi's instructions, and this guy is also diligent every day.

Originally, the army in Luolin's home was still relatively xenophobic, and it was not easy for such an outsider to gain a foothold, but fortunately, Du Wei invented the game of football.

This George Bush is a genius in kicking football, and after a few days, he actually played like a model, and now he quickly got into a mess with the Rolling's cavalry, and some outsiders who didn't like this outsider very much, played a few games with him, and gradually got along.

Du Wei had the intention to cultivate him to be of great use, and even specially instructed George and Robert to let George command the land quota of the hundred-man cavalry, but the team members let George himself secretly observe, and then look for some people who are capable and have strict mouths.

George knew that this was cultivated by his new master, and did not dare to slack off, so he made a fuss in the barracks for a few days, but secretly noticed that many people came, and finally reported it to Robert.

With Du Wei's support, Robert gave the green light and let George choose the candidates. Only then did he pick a hundred cavalrymen to serve as Du Wei's personal guards.

In the blink of an eye, Du Wei has been home for more than a month.

He had the small building in the forest on the outskirts of the castle triple in size, and even flattened a forest to build a small manor, surrounded on three sides by wooden walls, one facing the tributary of the Lorraine River.

The Marquise Liszt gave gifts, as well as the gifts of the Magic Union, all of which were stored inside, as well as the so-called "Football Association" of the old Mad's territory, and Du Wei's own property related to the fastest update of the Burning Book City wanted you to land in the industry, all of which were moved in, and the 100 cavalry of George's land were responsible for guarding there.

Normally, without Du Weidi's order, even the old butler Hill is not allowed to enter.

Originally, after Du Wei was in trouble last time, he was grounded by his father, and now he has also sent a handwritten letter from the earl, which has been lifted, but Du Wei expected to summon himself back to dìdū The news has not been delayed.

He studied magic with Solskjaer's magic genius every day, and now there is another rat prime minister, Gargamel, although his magic level is a hundred times worse than that of Gandalf's strong man, but after all, he once had the title of eighth-level magician, and his actual strength has reached about five, and his magic knowledge is also better than that of Du Wei and Solsk Asia-Pacific.

Solskjaer was already dead set on following Du Wei anyway, and he was a little surprised when he started with Gargamel, the rat man, but Gargamel said that he was practicing Transfiguration magic, and as a result, he accidentally fell into the magic backlash, so this explanation can be regarded as dispelling Solskjaer's doubts.

Gargamel was even more surprised by Solskjaer's approach to opening up new avenues for the use of magic! Solskjaer's experiment allowed almost ordinary people to use magic, and if such a thing could be done, it would be an earth-shattering breakthrough.

Ole Gunnar Solskjaer showed off his invention of "gunpowder", and a little experimentation made Gargamel pay homage to this lowly magical creature.

Fortunately, now Du Wei is rich in money, and although the magic test burns money, he can afford to burn with Du Wei's net worth.

It's just that Du Wei pinched and calculated, and when he sent the female knight Ruolin and the violent female magician Qiao An to go to sea to collect pirates, it has been three months, but he has not come back for a long time, and he can't help but feel a little anxious.

However, the good news is also that there is land.

After Du Wei left the "research and development team" to develop the hot air balloon, those craftsmen did not leave their work after Du Wei left, and after much research, plus Du Wei's inspiration, the hot air balloon was finally fully developed. The firmness and load capacity of the hot air balloon are also gradually improved.

Du Wei's mind moved.

In this world, there is no so-called ground air power, the sky is almost undefended, and with such a thing as a hot air balloon, it is almost equivalent to controlling air supremacy! If it is a time of war, with this kind of thing, a large number of hot air balloons can quietly transport a large number of troops to the enemy's rear...... And air attacks and so on......

It's just that the continent is still in peacetime, and this hot air balloon has no military use.

Du Wei thought about it very much: it can't be used in war, and it can't be wasted, so he invested so many gold coins to make such a thing, it can't be used as an ornament, and the money can't be thrown into the water in vain!

With a pat on the head, Du Wei made up his mind: civilian!

Although the load capacity of the developed geothermal air balloon has been increased a lot, it is really not as good as a horse-drawn carriage to transport things.

But after all, flying in the air, the speed is not known how many times faster than the carriage, and it is safe, some valuable and fragile items, do not have to worry about the carriage being damaged in the bumps on the road. More importantly, the cost is also low, a carriage, from the carriage cost, plus the horses, and the groom, as well as the forage and groom wages consumed by the horses, the cost is much greater than that of a hot air balloon.

So Du Wei put the way to make money on this matter.

On the Roland continent, the transportation industry is also landed, but it is all some horse-drawn carriages, not to mention the slow speed, and the cost is also high.

In some big cities, there are branches of the magic union, and there are some military fortresses, and there are also mages who are invited to arrange the magic array.

This kind of magic array, through magic, can send some important letters and documents and other things in an instant, and it is not slower than the network mail in Du Wei's previous life, but after all, the magic array is a rare thing, only in the branches of the magic union and some important military fortresses.

Ordinary people, even if they are wealthy and wealthy, can only rely on fast horses to transport things.

In this way, the hot air balloon has a usefulness.

This Rì Du Wei asked Madeh to gather some of the wealthy merchants who had tasted the sweetness of the football league, and gathered in a small town in the south of the castle not far from the plain of Rollin.

This small city is about less than thirty miles south of Rollin Castle, and the purchase of materials in Pingrìli Castle also comes from this small city, because it is close to Rollin's castle, this small city has a very unique name: Rollin Luoer.

On this day, after hearing the summoning of Master Du Wei, the rich merchants of the entire Kot Province came, and even if they had land and could not come to the land, they also sent some representatives with enough status.

Du Wei personally showed a hot air balloon. This is a sample prepared by Du Wei Jīng, made of ten pieces of fine cowhide woven into a geothermal air balloon, and below is a huge bowl-shaped chassis woven with a strong teng, and the surrounding guardrail is more than half a person high. Du Wei calculated that the weight of this hot air balloon can bear about fifteen adult men, that is, about a ton of weight.

Moreover, under the chassis, Gargamel was specially invited to bless a few small wind magic, so that the hot air balloon can use some wind power after flying, reducing the wind resistance and increasing the buoyancy of the hot air balloon, making it fly faster and have a stronger bearing capacity.

"Inviting everyone here today, in fact, I have opened another industrial land." Du Wei was also not polite to these merchants. When they saw something, they couldn't help but be unmoved: "The transportation business on the Luolin Plain has always been monopolized by a few car dealers.

As soon as these words came out, the people below were in an uproar.
