Chapter 192: The Continuation of the War
Why did these mainland countries become so crazy, Zhou Zhongmou almost came to his own conclusion. This group of crazy people is obviously maliciously disturbed by the deflection of the whole world, "As these guys get closer and closer, it looks like the world has fallen into the dark abyss." Zhou Zhongmou looked at the sky, beyond the zenith, the evil god's lair in the void that was approaching was exuding a thick dark miasma, and the wisps of miasma penetrated into this world little by little through time and space.
Remilet Island benefited from the demonic power of the Bolfu, and the locked concentration of mana isolated the penetration of these miasma, making this place take on the original appearance of this world like never before- It's just a little bit more than Bo Fu's dependents, but since Zhou Zhongmou announced that he wanted to persuade him to participate in the continental war, the human nobles who first supported different countries duel first to come to a conclusion by themselves, and then these guys were not so noisy, and they didn't run eight times a day to try to persuade Zhou Zhongmou, the king of Remiret, to join the allied side of a certain country.
Zhou Zhongmou, who had finally been temporarily purified, paid attention to the war on the mainland, and now no one expected that what he thought was just an ordinary war had now turned into an extremely greedy monster, feeding it with the flesh and blood lives of countless people, and nothing else would arise - except for Zhou Zhongmou, of course, who understood this situation very well. "At the time of the First World War, the two sides of the war thought the same way - they never thought that they had actually released a monster called the World War" Now, all the experience of the past war is useless, even the experience of the Belken War, which was fought just ten years ago. The intensity of artillery fire far exceeded the most pessimistic assumptions of the militaries of various countries. Although in Zhou Zhongmou's view, it cannot be compared with the First World War
In your free time to watch the war. After dealing with the boring visits of the nobles and diplomats. Zhou Zhongmou put most of his attention on making "models". Now the kingdom of Remilet has become a country whose shipping power far exceeds that of what it should have - on the continental route, in order to prevent the warring parties from intercepting each other's transport ships for purchasing raw materials and magic equipment, it seems that Belken, Yuctobania, and the Kingdom of Bourbon have all "sold" several large but unarmed floating ships to the Kingdom of Remiret in a similar way as gifts, and the Kingdom of Belken has "helped" in the construction of a maintained dry dock and some supporting workshops. And even if these ships are the property of the Remirete Kingdom, they can transport supplies for the belligerents at will based on the position of a neutral third party - the ships of the Remirete Kingdom will not be intercepted if the Remiret Kingdom does not join the war and no country can completely control the route to the mainland.
These boats have only one adjective, which is thin skin and big stuffing, and they are designed with only one goal in mind - to carry as many things as possible. Stuff more. Therefore, the armor of the ships was reduced to a minimum, the structure was strengthened to bear the weight of more materials, and there were no weapons and equipment, but the supporting magic alchemy power furnace and propulsion system were quite powerful, especially after Zhou Zhongmou modified these ships with the enlarged and improved propulsion system of the magic machine- Now these ships can fly at a speed of more than 100 kilometers per hour with a full load of tens of thousands of tons of supplies, of course, this is extremely fast, and consumes energy, but if you use a cruising speed of 80 kilometers, the opening time is almost unlimited.
As a result, Zhou Zhongmou's speed of obtaining information has become faster recently, and it has also become extremely stable. Large transports are on the voyage and route every day, and they will bring the ore and magic equipment of Remilet Island to various countries. Let the meat grinder of war continue to run. Now the production of the Remilet Kingdom's magic equipment has risen to more than one hundred and fifty units per month, and in the current situation, it can still supply the needs of the entire continent. At present, the attrition of the magic machine soldiers is not strict, and the amount of irreparable damage in the entire continent in a month is about forty units, which makes the main belligerents still have more magic machine soldiers. Of course, the spies spying on the magic machine arsenal on Remilet Island didn't stop for a day. But none of them have access to critical information - the special fungus and mana conversion engines are insurmountable.
This kind of completely irrational meat grinder battle is rapidly plunging the continent into darkness, and the so-called battle of knightly demeanor that could have been maintained has turned sour a year after the war began—the endless battle has broken the personality, and all kinds of ugly human nature has begun to appear. Although food is still self-sufficient, the endless casualties of young adults have made it almost unbearable for all countries. After a year of war, the Kingdom of Belken has lost more than 1.5 million young and middle-aged men, and many more have been wounded. And the Kingdom of Bourbon has already lost two million young adults to the battlefield, and a whole generation has shed blood. Other countries were no better, and in the campaign to pacify the southern Yuktobania Peninsula, the Kingdom of Yuktobania tasted for the first time the suffering of the spontaneous guerrilla warfare of the people that had just emerged in the world, and at the same time fought very hard against the three coastal states that were much smaller than it, as well as the kingdoms of Ukraine and Barland, and the casualties of these countries together had lost at least four million lives to soldiers alone, not to mention civilian casualties. In fact, civilian casualties in various countries are relatively low compared to soldiers - in any case, there are still the most basic fronts, and there is no such thing as carpet bombing.
And the kingdom of Novaya Zemlya, opposite the island of Remiret, has long been in a state of remorse from top to bottom - in order to maintain the territory occupied on the mainland, a large number of transport ships between Novaya Zemlya and the mainland have been destroyed by the high-speed expulsion of the floating warship formation of the Bourbon Kingdom that attacks from time to time, for which they have to use precious floating warships to repeatedly engage with the floating fleet of the Bourbon Kingdom and suffer heavy losses. As for the relinquishment of occupation and return to Novaya Zemlya - this is politically unacceptable. As a result, this wound will continue to bleed, and the Kingdom of Novaya Zemlya is far from being comparable with the Kingdom of Bourbon in terms of basic industry, whether it is in the design, production, and maintenance of floating warships, or in the production and replenishment of weapons and ammunition for the ground forces, and it also has a disadvantage on the transportation line. As a result, the casualties of the Novaya Zemlya Kingdom far exceeded those of the Bourbon Kingdom in person. The only thing to be proud of is the Royal Knights. The magic knights of the Novaya Zemlya Kingdom are superior to the Bourbon Kingdom knights they are facing, and if they are not always inferior in numbers, it is difficult to say whether they will turn the tables around. This group of about forty magically armored knights has emerged a large number of "ghosts and gods", "comets" and other magically armored knights with the title of pulling style. In the propaganda of Novaya Zemlya that they had killed at least three times as many Bourbon knights, the news spread even to the Duchy of Belken - in any case, they were now considered an "ally" fighting against the Kingdom of Bourbon.
"But if I look at the sales form, it's impossible for the Bourbon Kingdom to put a hundred or twenty magic suitors there, and there should only be fifty from beginning to end. Zhou Zhongmou said as he looked at the battle report that blew into the sky. As far as he thinks, only the little guy who likes to paint the magic suit in red will have a good record, and the rest is estimated to be blowing.
