Chapter 194 Arms Purchase
Don’t say they don’t know, Link himself won’t know either. In addition to drawings and craftsmanship, the funds needed to build a mage tower are also an astronomical figure for the newly promoted mage.
His Highness Helena's mage tower was not built by himself, but the Holy Empire and the Elf Forest jointly invested in the construction of His Highness Helena and his disciples' mage tower group.
So although it is a mage tower that can be owned by the magician level, only a small number of veteran magicians and legendary mages have funds to own.
This time a magic empire came, and the mainland parliament began to discuss countermeasures again. In fact, everyone understands that if the soldiers come and generals come to block the water, the two sides will not be able to return to the negotiating table to solve the problem without doing anything.
Link, one of the chiefs of the General Staff of the coalition forces in the last World War, also participated in the military meeting at the next level.
The host of the military conference said on the hosting station: "Now we bring you two news, one good news and one bad news. The bad news is that the other party's world is also a magic world dominated by humans, and the other party has legendary wizards. The good news is that this magic empire only allows the royal family to study legendary and above magic. Due to qualifications, the other party's royal family has only three legendary wizards. Moreover, we analyze that the other party must leave at least one legendary wizard guardian, so the number of legendary wizards we encounter on the battlefield in the future is only one or two."
One of the participants asked the following meeting: "How many magicians are there?"
Host: "The prisoners we caught are just ordinary sentinels. We know almost nothing about magic convenience, but there is also some information. That is, in the magic empire opposite, it is stipulated by law that only noble children can be qualified to enter the Magic Academy. And for folk wild mages, they have the attitude of killing each one. Therefore, the children of ordinary people have no chance of magic. In this way, we analyze that at least in terms of the number of magicians and magicians, we will not suffer any losses. After all, we have an excellent magic teaching system here."
The following buzzed and started discussing such an education system immediately. This education system only cultivates aristocrats as magicians, which basically allows the nobles to gain absolute dominance over the people. Only the royal family has legendary magic and legendary mages, and the royal family has absolute dominance over the nobles.
This is just an advantage, and a disadvantage must exist, that is, not every noble child has a good magical talent, and not every royal family can become a legendary wizard.
If this continues, it is inevitable that the high-level military power will be weaker than the next generation after this magic empire ruled the continent.
For example, members of the mainland parliament, everyone should be careful every day if the enemy will suddenly attack, so that they will constantly select talents from the people, cultivate them into magicians or even magicians, and increase the national defense power of the senior management. It is also worth spending some money to let the senior management of the kingdom have a stable sleep.
Although everyone seemed harmonious on the surface before the war, it was the result of the accumulation of strength in secret by all countries. Everyone was ready for war and could not fight. If a country's military power, especially the continuous decline of high-level military power under the circumstances surrounding this group of heroes, it would be a matter of time before the country's national destruction would be destroyed.
Link's old friend Marquis McCrey asked next to Link, "Are you any good suggestions?"
Link: "What position are you this time?"
Marquis McCree: "It is likely that he will be the commander-in-chief of the Western Union."
Link: "First of all, lengthen the other party's supply line as much as possible. This way we will have a little chance. If we only let them stay in the natural magic teleportation channel, the two legendary mages can solve any problems."
Marquis McClair: "Now the other party is constantly conquering the city and territories, wouldn't it be a death sentence?"
Link: "The attack cannot be long. As long as we persist in resisting one by one, we will consume the opponent's hard power. The enemy will sooner or later be tired."
Marquis McCree: "But I heard that the other party has a few million troops."
Link: "It's impossible to send everyone here all at once. If the whole mission comes, how can the military force solve the problem?"
Marquis McLee: "Then should we strengthen the walls and clear the fields and move all the agricultural population out of the villages and towns without leaving a grain of food for the enemy."
Link: "That should be done. Didn't the other party's food be too tight? The city can be thrown away, but we must never let the other party get supplies through war."
Marquis McCree: "Look back and let me tell you about it. Is there anything that can be used and can improve combat effectiveness immediately?"
Now, the magicians in this world have cracked the production methods and ingredients for human enchantment carriers. There is no patent in this world. After the cheaper human enchantment carriers appeared in the market, they have cut off Link's business. The holy realm that cannot fly now does not exist. One of the standards for the powerful people in the holy realm is to fly.
The large number of flying enchantment carriers appearing on the market have reduced the price to one thousand and hundreds of gold coins. Are you a strong man in the Holy Realm? You have to borrow money to get one. What's more, this little gold coins are really nothing to a strong man in the Holy Realm.
Link: "After you say that, I really remember something, but it's a bit dangerous. The price isn't too cheap."
Marquis McCree: "What, what is the effect?"
Link said straight: "It is a pill-shaped magic potion. It can immediately advance a high-level warrior to the Holy Land warrior. However, it is about 20% of the mortality rate. Let's make it clear that this is very risky. I won't lose money if I eat someone to death."
Of course what Link is talking about is the foundation-building pill. In the past few years, Link has saved about 1,800 foundation-building pills - in the fairy world, in the years of the fairy tale, about 500 foundation-building pills obtained by Link hunting monsters every year. Some of them were sold to the market, and the rest were left behind. Originally, it was left for His Highness Helena to do a lot of magic experiments. However, His Highness Helena had stopped the experiment because the medicine was too dangerous.
Although Link can still exchange it for close to the eight-three-level spirit stones when he gets the fairy tale world. However, as long as Link is still alive, he will not lack spirit stones. The management members will pay dividends every year. He will also earn money when he goes out to hunt monsters. The foundation-building pill left is only part of it.
The mortality rate of His Highness Helena's 30% of the Foundation Establishment Pill is the probability of the total number. If only a high-level warrior (above level ten) takes the Foundation Establishment Pill, there is an 80% chance of upgrading to the Holy Land warrior. If a low-level warrior below level ten takes the Foundation Establishment Pill, the mortality rate is about 50%.
Marquis McCree thought for a while: "If it was a peace period, of course he wouldn't choose to take such dangerous magic potions. However, now it's a war period. Our world needs more top-level powers, so we can't take care of that much. I will look for volunteers in the army. With an 80% chance of promotion, I can fight. What about low-level warriors? Is there any way?"
Link: "Low-level warrior, I have about 20,000 pill-shaped magic potions here. If you take them, you can immediately increase the fighting spirit of the low-level warrior or the magic power of the magician. However, the degree of improvement is not very high."
Marquis McCree: "How many advanced magic potions do you have?"
Link: "One thousand eight, no matter how many there are."
Marquis McCree: "In this way, I will probably be in trouble if I lose 360 high-level warriors directly. However, if I lose 360 low-level warriors and get 1,440 strong men from the Holy Land, I might remember a great merit."
Link: "I probably figured out how you're going to play."
Marquis McCree: "Of course, I'm looking for 1,800 low-level warriors, each of whom is sending about ten low-level but safe magic potions. Let them first advance to high-level warriors, and then let them take high-level magic potions, so that's what it's done."
Link: "We are always in love. This time I can collect all gold coins. I will pack two potions to you with 10 million gold coins and don't bargain."
Marquis McCree: "Why don't you rob 10 million gold coins? With my face, I really can't mobilize so much military expenditure."
Link: "If you think so, you will cultivate more than a thousand holy land powerhouses. Or start with low-level warriors. And the most important thing is that it can be done in half a month. If you calculate this, it only takes half a month to cultivate a holy land powerhouse and less than seven thousand gold coins. How cost-effective is this. It is as high as three or four floors. Do you think it is? Marquis."
In fact, the price that Link calculated by himself was that buying so many foundation-building pills and spiritual pills for improving cultivation was not very expensive. In Link's world, he could only buy 10 million gold coins for 10 million gold coins. In the world of fairy tales, he could sell at least more than 3,000 third-level spirit stones. Third-level spirit stones are not something that can be exchanged for more gold. Selling only gold coins is already very cheap. Besides, during a country's war, he could not even get this little gold coins, so he might simply be destroyed.
Marquis McCree: "This is not my money, one million or one million means nothing to me. I don't take kickbacks. But I really can't mobilize so much extra military expenses."
Link: "For such a simple thing, you think, you should first have a one million package and cultivate more than one hundred holy warriors. Isn't it much easier to get the set of nine million gold coins left."
"Okay, just listen to you."
In fact, Marquis McCree is not unable to gather more than a thousand high-level soldiers, but those who are about the same age and who can advance to high-level soldiers must have higher potential than those of the same age who are still low-level soldiers. Moreover, in the army, these high-level soldiers are intermediate officers and backbone forces of the army. If a large group of high-level soldiers turn into sacred warriors, these sacred warriors will naturally no longer be used as intermediate officers, but will have an adverse impact on the command of the army. As for the volunteers of low-level soldiers, they will naturally catch a lot of them, and if they are selected, they will not affect the combat effectiveness of the command and the army - if they are veterans, they can be low-level officers.
After the meeting, Marquis McCree gathered one million gold coins with a one million package first. It would be easier to find volunteers for low-level warriors. Although there is a 20% mortality rate, the lower-level warriors now also know that in the future war, the higher the strength, the fewer the deaths will die. Now, if you can really be promoted to the Holy Land Powerful, the possibility of survival will increase significantly in the future wars. Now, the Holy Land Powerful is the standard configuration, and the Holy Land Warrior is also a military force that can fight and run.
After the expiration of the Sacred Domain Warriors' Quick Plan, the commander-in-chief of the Western Alliance, was submitted, it received some attention. The military potential of the Western Alliance has always been at the forefront of the mainland parliament. It is not so repulsive to new technologies. Although it has a certain failure rate, the losses of hundreds of people or low-level soldiers in this war that often runs hundreds of thousands or millions of people are simply insignificant.
As for military expenditure, there is no need to worry about it, because this time it is a battle between the members of the mainland parliamentary countries to defend their homes, and even the Mage Bank has given low-interest mortgage loans to the members of the mainland parliamentary countries.
Obviously, the Mage Bank is not optimistic that the Magic Empire will respect the Mage Bank's privileges in the mainland parliamentary member states.
In fact, the same is true. According to the war reports sent back from the front, the Magic Empire basically used the population of the occupied towns in the world as slaves, and only cared for two meals a day, regardless of men, women, young and old, and the military management of the Magic Empire was done by the various miscellaneous tasks of the captured population. The local civilians from the Magic Empire can be managed by the people who cannot do the work. The Magic Empire does not waste food and is directly killed and buried.
Under such circumstances, the strategy of strengthening the walls and clearing the fields proposed by Marquis McCree was also implemented. A large number of inland population were moved out of the inland. If there were relatives, they could find a job in other cities, or the state arranged it to go to the New World to develop the New World.
As the war progress accelerates, the Magic Empire has sent more than one million troops to this newly discovered alien world, with a total of five legions.
However, the members of the mainland parliament, like the Immortal Xiaoqiang, were constantly mobilizing their troops to resist tenaciously with the invaders from another world. Each time the Magic Empire captured a large amount of troops, the final result was a ruined city - the Magic Empire had to pass tragic street battles to drive the defenders out of the city. In this way, the Magic Empire suffered great casualties again and again.
Through repeated battles, the members of the mainland parliament have been constantly analyzing the latest war reports, and are becoming more and more aware of the reality of the magic empire.
The five legions sent by the Magic Empire in advance were all standing legions and quite combat-effective. A legion, together with various arms, had a total of more than 200,000 people, but the proportion of magicians or mage groups was not very high.
