Chapter seven hundred and seventy seventh thornwood oil
"no!"
Just when I felt that everything was about to come to fruition, a voice came from behind, and the logistics officer named Zhang again. He stepped forward and knelt on one knee and said, "Report to Your Majesty, the flying boats of the Ministry of Works have always been used for special purposes, either for battle in the air or as royal seats. How can there be a reason to transport lowly torpedoes? Besides, these torpedoes are just fishermen's trick to fry fish, how can they be put on the table? My Xuanyuan Empire has always been the supreme Middle Earth. If even the torpedoes are taken out to fight, it will inevitably become a joke on the mainland!"
I frowned: "What does this lord mean? How can you become a joke if you treat torpedoes as a tactic?"
"July fire!"
He glared at me and said, "As the deputy commander of the regular empire, you don't think about the twenty-seven tactics and learn the imperial battle formation skills, you only know how to use these tricks of carving insects. Do you really think that torpedoes can curb the heavy armor of the Flamingo Corps? Have you verified it?"
"No."
I shook my head and said, "But I believe it works, and Han Zixi also believes it, right?"
Han Zixi nodded quickly: "Yes... some broken tiles are mixed in the torpedo, and the power must be stronger. Perhaps the explosion is generated at a speed that will make the opponent's heavy armor deform or even penetrate."
"It's simply a mess. How can a torpedo be used to fight the enemy?" The logistics officer was still unwilling to give in.
I raised my eyebrows: "If you say this, why don't you go to meet the enemy? How about you go to defeat the 600,000 Flamingo Corps?"
"you……"
He was furious.
At this moment, Xuanyuan Ying raised his eyebrows and said, "Zhang Jishan! You can retreat. There is no business here for the time being. You just need to dispatch food, grass and equipment."
"yes……"
Zhang Jishan timidly, clasped his fists and withdrew from the conference hall.
"July fire."
Xuanyuan Ying looked at me with deep eyes and smiled, "You are a very interesting young general and the leader among the new generation of war generals in the empire. I believe in you. I will hand over all the twenty transport ships of the Flying Boat Camp to you. In addition, I will also dispatch my car and flying boats to you. I hope you can achieve results on the battlefield that will satisfy me."
"Yes, thank you, Your Majesty!"
On the side, Han Zixi also clasped his fists together: "Thank you, Your Majesty! I will leave!"
"Let's go~~~"
Feng Buwen laughed and said, "I will take you to receive the flying boat. In addition, how many people are needed. Although I told me that this is my handwritten letter. You can arrange all resources in major provinces. If you don't follow the rules, you can kill them in the same place!"
"Thank you Fengxiang."
"Yeah, go!"
...
Not long after, accompanied by the sound of "gulp and gurgle", the spirit stones in the stoves on both sides of the flying boats burned fiercely, providing endless power. Dozens of flying boats soared into the sky, then rushed into the clouds with a "swish and swish" and flew straight to the south. In less than twenty minutes, they directly entered Yunxi City, a secondary main city located in the south, which seemed to be a myth, and the Fierce Guild settled here.
The fleet descended directly above a workshop. When I showed the seal that was not heard, a local official said in a deep voice: "The Northern Wilderness Province is in war. The empire needs the supplies in your hands. Each workshop will bring out all your torpedoes and count them by quantity. After that, the provincial capital will issue subsidies to you according to quantity. Please do not hide your personal information!"
For a moment, a constant stream of people brought boxes of torpedoes with a lead wire to the flying boat. In less than ten minutes, everything was ready, and dozens of flying boats were filled with heavy torpedoes.
"Start, Northland County!"
"set sail!"
Amid the command, one flying boat after another took off, and arrived at Beidi County, the closest battlefield in the Northern Wilderness Province, about eighteen minutes later. When the flying boat landed on a wide ground, countless workers in the costumes of the Ministry of Works rushed over and began to fill the torpedoes with gunpowder and clay pot fragments. I was waiting anxiously. Every second there was a deer player, and the soldiers of the Silver Frost Legion were sacrificing. The faster here, the less losses there were. I could describe my mood at this moment with anxiety.
"You don't need to worry, it will be very soon."
On the side, Hanzixi Road.
"Um."
I nodded: "How long will it take?"
"The first batch will be transported in about ten minutes."
"Okay, take me around and I want to see this workshop."
"yes!"
Not far away, I smelled a pungent smell from my nose. In addition to the smell of gunpowder, there was also a smell similar to kerosene, so I frowned: "What does it smell?"
"Oh, it's thornwood oil."
“Thornwood oil?”
"Yes, sir." Han Zixidao: "The plant of thornwood grows in the northern and southern provinces of the empire. The oil produced is ignited when it encounters fire. The colleagues of the Ministry of Industry have always had the habit of refining thornwood oil as oil lamps to consume. Moreover, these thornwood oils are also very popular in the north. Most wealthy families will stockpile a large amount of thornwood oil as fuel to survive the long cold winter."
"It's really about to burn when it comes to fire?"
"yes!"
"Take me a look."
"Yes, sir!"
Turning around the corner, there was an alley ahead, just ahead, a middle-aged man was coming with an oil barrel with force. Han Zixi stopped him directly, while I took a branch and covered it with thorny wood oil from the oil barrel. Then I looked around and applied it directly to the stone wall. The endless wind roared, and the flames of the chiseling skill flew past.
"Swish!"
A ray of blazing flame burned along the track of the thornwood oil, smoky the walls into charred black.
"sharp……"
I frowned and said, "Han Zixi, does this kind of thornwood oil have a lot of oil?"
"Many, after all, are common daily necessities."
"good!"
I turned around and looked at a deputy general behind me and said, "Can the catapult of the Silver Shuang Legion throw this bucket of thornwood oil?"
The deputy general stepped forward and weighed the oil barrel, and smiled and said, "Sir, I'm not bad...but... our catapult carts are used to project giant rocks to kill opponents. Why do we throw this?"
"Sir, do you want fire attack?" Han Zixi's eyes lit up and she said with a smile.
I also smiled: "Fire attack may be useless to other Bloody Royal Court Corps, but the Flamingo Corps is all heavy-armed troops. Whether it is heavy infantry or heavy-armed cavalry, once we are stained with this kind of thornwood oil that burns when we encounter fire, we will spread to each other with a rocket. I am afraid that the Flamingo Corps will be able to be reborn from the fire."
Han Zixi nodded: "What sir said is very true!"
"Okay, all the requisitions are required, as much as you want!"
"yes!"
...
Twenty minutes later, the first batch of torpedoes were all loaded on the ship, and I returned to the battlefield with me. At this time, it was night again. The whole world was gray, and wisps of snowflakes fell from the sky. In the cold weather, the Silver Frost Legion and Yilu's troops had been fighting bloody battles for a day and night in the game.
"Lord Juyue Liuhuo is back!"
When the flying boat landed, someone saw me.
"Brother, how about it?"
Wang Shuang stepped forward, with blood flowing on the blade. I guess he could no longer suppress his attack and killed the enemy in person.
"all the best."
I smiled slightly: "Brother Wang Shuang, how is the situation on the position?"
Suddenly, Wang Shuang's smile gradually disappeared, and she said, "The Flamingo Army launched a fierce attack. Our brothers suffered heavy losses. The Iron Bus Camp has killed more than 10,000 people and injured more than 10,000 people. Even soldiers who can fight again are mostly exhausted. If everyone does not rest for a while and eats to replenish their physical strength, the Yinshuang Legion will probably be dragged down."
"knew."
I nodded, looked into the distance, and said, "Iron Buying has been supported for too long, so I must change them to come down and take a break."
"Then... what should I do with the defense line?" Wang Shuang said.
"It doesn't matter."
I looked at Qin Zhan, the commander of the Tianqi Camp, and said, "Can the heavy cavalry of the Tianqi Camp bench take on the heavy duty of infantry, if they get off their horses and lift their shields?"
Suddenly, Qin Zhan looked excited and said with a fist: "Please rest assured that the commander and the deputy commander. The brothers of the Tianqi Camp are powerful heavy cavalry, and they can replace the brothers of the Iron Infantry Camp as they dismount. Please give orders. The 30,000 brothers of the last general looked at the bloody battle between the brothers in the same camp, and were ready to fight with the Flamingo Corps!"
"good!"
I nodded and smiled: "Qin Zhan, go and send orders. The 20,000 Tianqi Camp will get off the horse and lift the shield, and be a heavy infantry to replace the defense Iron Infantry Camp. The remaining 10,000 Tianqi Camp will also be dismounted. Han Zixi will teach them how to use torpedoes and replace the defense Iron Infantry Camp. All the brothers from the Shengong Camp will return to the camp to repair, have a good meal, sleep, and treat the injuries."
"yes!"
"Brother!" Wang Shuang stepped forward and said, "There is really a shortage of manpower. I have ten thousand people in my imperial guard camp, so you can also dispatch them together!"
"good."
I nodded: "Let them raise their shields together to fight against the enemy!"
"Um!"
...
Not long after, the defense was changed, 20,000 Tianqi Battalion and 10,000 people from the Imperial Guard Battalion carried shields to fight with the Flamingo heavy infantry. In the back row, 10,000 Tianqi Battalion cavalry who had received "emergency training" from Han Zixi took off their battle armor and went into battle bare shirt, each with a box of torpedoes, and a bunch of bonfires were lit behind the defense line.
"Remember!"
Han Zixi rode a thin horse and said, "After igniting it, throw it forward with all his strength!"
"Yes, sir!"
"Let's start!"
...
I also turned around and waited attentively for how much change the torpedoes would bring to the situation on the battlefield.
"Shit~~~"
Chapter completed!
