The formation of a coalition army by the Tatooan Empire is an established fact.

Annan wanted to be inconspicuous, and it was best that the emperor would not look down on Liberty City......

As a result, on the third day, the list of coalition forces published in the "Imperial Newspaper" was prominently on the list of coalition forces.

"With great power comes great responsibility...... Olmedo learned what Annan once said.

Annan put down the newspaper: "I don't think we are very capable ......"

"But we're making too much money."

"You're saying someone is eyeing us!?" Annan's dark eyes flashed with hatred, "Find out, I suspect that they are colluding with Rikaner...... No, collusion with the nezumi! ”

Itilia appeared doting and tender: "If you don't want to, we can ask the ancestor ......"

"Forget it......"

Annan thought about it seriously and refused to avoid war: "The empire has always allowed us to make money, using the Montreal Golden Family as a protective umbrella, just wanting us to stand with him when necessary. Otherwise, why should the Thirteen Kings accompany us to play at home? Is it just to make up for my guilt? ”

Wouldn't it be impossible to refuse...... But the old ancestors, Ou Lin, they will definitely be disappointed in themselves.

And all the past connivances of the empire will be taken back, and their territory will not be smooth sailing.

After speaking, Annan saw Olmedo's unsurprised appearance: "You have thought of it a long time ago?" ”

"If you don't read a book, that's politics...... "Olmedo sighed, "everything that fate has given you has been secretly priced." ”

"What's going on with you today?" Annan said suspiciously.

Olmedo pointed to an ancient book with a bookmark on the table: "I've been reading a book lately, and I've felt a lot of emotion. You're going to-"

"I'm going to tell Fermi now! Personally! ”

Annan fled Olmedo's office without looking back.

It didn't take long for the city lord's palace to issue a series of orders in the name of Annan:

Cancel all the vacations of the Hellfire Legion, cancel the original plan to go to the Duchy of Montabulllock at the end of June to jointly clean up the bandits, gather them all, and hurry up to train.

Annan put away his luck. Since you can't hide from it, let's show it well. You might even be able to earn some orders.

Banners reading "Sweat more in peacetime, shed less blood in wartime" and "The King of Liberty City is watching you" hung everywhere in the camp.

In addition to the Hellfire Legion, Olmedo has also formed an elite team that had traveled with Annan to the Cerence Mountains, and they will set off with the Hellfire Legion.

The Hellfire Legion's combat power is all on muskets and artillery, which is their most significant weakness. If it's a sneak attack, a master can make them lose a lot.

The chimney of the blacksmith began to spew black smoke incessantly, and the sound of thumping came from day and night.

In addition to the guns and ammunition, the worn plate armor was also sent back to the blacksmith to be re-tempered.

It is impossible to develop new magic muskets, mushroom bombs, and knight golems that Annan had high hopes for, but it is possible to increase the caliber of magic artillery, and it is not even difficult - shape the mountain bronze into the shape of a magic cannon, and then it is completed.

Orichon, which is difficult to destroy even legends and is used by the gods to build the cornerstone of the kingdom of God, has no possibility of exploding.

Its only disadvantage is that it is heavy and expensive.

Let's put it this way, the power of the 30 cm caliber magic cannon now is about the same as the fireball spell unleashed by an elite mage. And the price of an elite mage in the mercenary hall is 3~7 gold coins per day.

However, if you replace the steel barrel of the magic cannon with orichal, even if there is only one layer, the price will be about 300 gold coins.

And there are two problems: the larger the caliber, the more powerful Martin understands. But the disadvantages are an increase in weight and a decrease in range.

In the end, Annan took Copperbeard's suggestion: the caliber of the first Orichalt Bronze Magic Cannon was set at 50 centimeters, which would not add much weight or lose much range, but would ensure that the nezumi would not have a complete corpse.

Orichalcum is difficult to shape, but it doesn't matter, as a customer, Annan can ask Wilhelm to make the orichalcum they need to shape.

"I have one more idea."

Annan drew the shape of a magic musket on the ground with coal, but with a shorter barrel and a thicker muzzle......

"Make another batch of Orichalcum Magic Muskets, double the caliber."

Orichalcum is such a good thing...... Annan is not limited by the strength of the material at all.

Only because of the terrifying recoil, this weapon can only be used by professionals, that is, centurion and above.

This way the officers will be able to quickly deal with the enemy who is below the elite.

After all, the elite is only stronger, and if they are hit, they will also die.

Annan went to the mushroom house again.

Of the thirty goblin golems, except for one that was still in the swamp, the remaining twenty-nine were neatly placed in the mushroom house.

Knowing that the goblin golems would follow him to the battlefield, Deng Lishao wanted to change the appearance of the twenty-nine goblin golems first.

But as soon as some of the Goblin Golem's external structures were removed, the problem arose: the Goblin Golem suddenly failed to activate.

Deng Lishao didn't know what the problem was, and even broke out in a cold sweat.

"Do you want to put these back first?" Annan picked up the scattered exterior structures and tried to put them back in place.

"Just a useless piece of metal that should be ......"

Click.

The last piece was attached, and the eyes of the silent goblin golem suddenly lit up again.

"What's going on......"

Deng Weishao was completely incomprehensible. It's not magical at all. It's like a mage who can't cast spells and suddenly can cast spells after changing positions.

"It's okay, I don't understand either." Annan next to him was accustomed to it, "But you know what? Susan Spinning has always had a habit of praying before the start of work, believing that this will greatly reduce the failure rate. This ritual spread to the Legion, where soldiers would sleep with magic muskets in their arms, and as a result, there were literally fewer chambers and jams...... I think this should be about the same. ”

Leaving a thoughtful Deng Bu Shao, Annan walked out of the mushroom house.

He was not in a hurry to leave, and came to the bank of the river named Wheat River with his umbrella.

The river was rushing because of the rainy weather, and a boundary monument stood on the opposite bank, representing the floating range of Liberty City.

He stood here for a while, and greeted Olmedo and the others who had come from the wheat fields to the north in their raincoats.

"Are you waiting for me?"

"Well, I want to form a fourth legion."

The others consciously stayed away, and Annan and Olmedo stood on the banks of the rushing river and talked about the rudiments of the Fourth Army.

"The fourth legion I want to be made up of aliens, we can put dragons, orcs, elves, and even goblins in it."

"What is the duty of this legion?"

"Special operations. Beheadings, assassinations, investigations, whatever they can do. ”

"You're going to let them go with the Hellfire Legion?"

"Well, if time comes."
