Linghu Pinqiu glanced at the general with some displeasure. This boy was just reporting good news to himself rather than bad news. This thing at least

There needs to be one out of tens of thousands. Only in this way can the army following them pass quickly. If the number is small,

It has no effect at all. The army he will use in the early stage is 40 million, which requires at least 4,000 of these.

So, one 700,000 silver piece requires 2.8 billion silver. This amount is nothing to the entire Eastern Empire.

But can we make it in time? Besides, this thing still needs to be trained. Three billion silver is necessary. This thing

This is just the beginning. If it goes on, the number will definitely increase, and the cost will definitely be a lot.

Now, can the empire’s finances sustain it? Compared with the other three empires, the empire’s finances are okay. How much is the annual income?

It can almost reach about 4 trillion silver, but even this kind of income is not enough for a large-scale war.

The empire has stipulated that if there is a war, the soldiers will be given double salary. By then, this alone will be a lot.

, if I put this request to the Imperial Ministry of War, they will definitely not be willing to build this thing.

Because of this incident, the Ministry of War has already misappropriated three billion silver from other places as its own war funds.

, it is not easy for them to get money again in such a short period of time, but if they don’t get this thing now, they will

Our cavalry is seeking death when they charge forward. We cannot risk the lives of our soldiers, especially in the first battle. We cannot make any mistakes.

"Tell someone to make twenty of them quickly, and then transport them to the front line quickly. I want to show it to the gentlemen from the Imperial War Department."

After seeing our results, if they are willing, this thing may be manufactured on a large scale. If not, I

Don't waste so much money on this thing." Jiang was still very old, and this guy immediately thought of this solution.

, and it allows the people in the Imperial War Department to see the effect, and he can still avoid taking responsibility. If this thing doesn't work, it will not work.

It's just the loss of what you just made. It has nothing to do with the rest.

"Yes, my subordinates will do it immediately." The general agreed and hurried down. This boy was also one of the nobles of the empire.

I wanted to use this opportunity to show my face in front of Linghu Pinqiu, and then this matter would be fine, but who knew

The old guy is not someone who is easily fooled. He didn't do anything to others, but he made his first impression like this.

Looks like this. The old guy looked at this guy and shook his head. The next generation of the empire still depends on these people, but look at them.

He knows everything, and all he thinks about all day long is intrigues. Such things are of no use at all.

Thinking of the Four-Party Talks, the old guy felt a pain in his heart for no reason. When he was a child, Linghu

The family and the royal family were separated. This was also to help each other. Who knew that now the two families were on the same page?

If it weren't for old guys like them, they would probably start fighting. It's no wonder, they are all sons and grandsons of dragons. Why?

One party is the royal family. The other is not. Besides, there is no difference in strength between the two parties. He is also worried now, no matter

No matter from what point of view the Linghu family is still relatively weak compared to the royal family, should they leave it to the descendants of their own family?

There is a way out. The Thunder Gate may be a good choice. The royal family also acquiesced to this at the beginning, so the Thunder Gate

The Linghu family occupies a relatively large proportion of the gate. Now that the Thunder Gate has been exposed in advance, it would be better if it can be preserved.

, but if it cannot be preserved, the internal strife between the royal family and the Linghu family will begin when the external threat is removed.

If Li Cong knew what this old guy was thinking now, he would definitely not continue to start his own naval plan, and would definitely sit down

He can watch a tiger fight from a mountain, but he is not a prophet, and he does not know too many things in this world. It is precisely because of Li Conghai

The appearance of the army made the two sides who were already at war with each other lower their anger. Of course, this was all based on the

No one can see what happened next. Now Li Cong is negotiating with the other three big guys.

Negotiations have already started for a day. The three parties are basically unwilling to speak in advance and are stalling for time. Li Cong

Naturally, he didn't want to speak. He didn't know what the discussion was like since these families had already arrived, so he just waited for you.

Just open your mouth, but for Prince Zheng and the Crown Prince of the Northern Empire's affection for me, I also reciprocated the favor. The two

Everyone also got a lot of benefits from Li Cong. What he got from Prince Zheng was a good magic weapon. Cooperate with Prince Zheng.

A junior eighth-level warrior from the Wang family is quite good. Li Cong knew that this boy was the grandson that Prince Zheng valued most.

, the voice of the royal family in the Western Empire is also very high. In less than five thousand years, he has reached the level of an eighth-level warrior.

He was considered a very young boy. Li Cong felt that a person who was five thousand years old was already very old, but in the eyes of Prince Zheng, this

Such a guy is a complete child. This kid has basically been practicing cultivation since he was born. Now he knows

Li Cong wanted to give him the magic weapon, and he immediately became brothers with Li Cong.

The crown prince of the Northern Empire definitely needs Li Cong's support. When the Tuoba family wanted to cooperate with Li Cong, they wanted to use Li Cong.

The airship, this thing is definitely a very good thing, if the prince has this thing, he can be invincible

Li Cong couldn't give it to the prince, but he could rent it to the prince. As for the fee, Li Cong only charged a symbolic ten yuan.

Two silver coins and ten large airships were rented to the prince for twenty years. This was also Li Cong's first large-scale lease of airships.

, this also means that the prince can hide his 8,000 troops wherever he wants, and the range of hundreds of miles around the capital

It’s possible within the surrounding area, because ten airships can transport them to where the prince needs them within an hour. This is very useful for

The prince's combat effectiveness has increased a lot. The other princes will definitely be very depressed after knowing this news.

The support Li Cong received was that the prince would promote Li Cong's army expansion plan after returning and would provide Li Cong with support from the regular army.

From looking for 300,000 officers, this transaction is not a loss for both parties. Especially Li Cong, an army of hundreds of millions is spent on just 100,000 soldiers.

In exchange for an airship, if people on earth knew about it, they would definitely say that Li Cong took it by force.

As for the Killing God of the Southern Empire, his luck does not seem to be that good. This guy has not received anything from Li Cong at the moment.

On the one hand, Li Cong even proposed modifications to the plan to expand the army by 1,500 divisions in the Southern Empire, because the front line needed

What is needed is some people who are good at defense, and the people of the Southern Empire are best at this, so what Li Cong proposed is

2,000 divisions, the face of the God of Killing has never gotten better. Li Cong proposed ten places in the Southern Empire to build huge

Fortress. What is this for? This is to establish a state within a state. This is absolutely impossible. Even if Li Cong wants

Even some desolate areas in the Southern Empire are not allowed. Who knows what these places will look like in the future. Li Cong is

A large amount of food can be pulled out of the deserts of the Northern Empire every year, so what else can't be done?

"This is basically what the plan looks like. I hope that my request can be answered quickly. In fact, it has to be done according to myself.

He said, I have plenty of time for you to think about it, but Linghu Pinqiu, the general of the Eastern Empire, will definitely not give me too long.

Yes, according to my spies, they have already begun to assemble their troops. I estimate that the war will begin on a large scale within two or three months.

Although Linghu Pinqiu hasn't come yet, I expected the war to last for five months, but what happened now

Big changes, we can only prepare for battle within three months, otherwise we will be very passive." Li Cong

There is no other way now. He can only show them the situation on the front line and show it to the Eastern Empire's own intelligence agency.

Although it is not as rich as theirs, they must also know the things they know. Now everyone must know

They are weighing the pros and cons. They don’t want to lose the war. If the Eastern Empire can get everything from the Thunder Gate, then they will

The possibility of them directly participating in the war has become inevitable, and there is no need for them to discuss how much to expand their own army here.

, what they want to discuss is how to unite to fight against the Eastern Empire. That is what they least want to see, and that is also what they want to do.

The thing that is least controllable by us, when the whole continent falls into chaos, is the most fatal thing.

"What Xiao Cao said is true. Our intelligence agency in the Northern Empire has obtained such a thing. This is something they have in the Eastern Empire."

It's called a chariot. This thing is more than ten meters high and can carry hundreds of soldiers inside. They can carry some of our frontline deployments.

The defense system has all been destroyed. The Eastern Empire has stepped up its production of things like theirs. They will launch them within half a month.

To the front line." Prince Zheng said while holding some drawings. This was the first time Li Cong heard about it. His intelligence agency

Obviously it was quite different from the one in the Western Empire. Li Cong also took it over and looked at it. After knowing the specific parameters of this thing, Li Cong expressed that

He showed a sad look. This thing is like a paper tiger in front of gunpowder, but he can't show it like that.

If they find out, my life will be very difficult.

"I heard on the front line that Xiao Cao has built a very good defense system. Isn't that thing very effective?

I have defeated many attacks. I think this thing is just a fake. If we really want to fight, it will not be that effective.

." The God of Death knew that this might be another opportunity for Li Cong to ask for troops, so he quickly came out and said, his words made Prince Zheng

I feel a little uncomfortable. It’s right for you to be dissatisfied, and it’s also right to consider the interests of your Southern Empire.

But things are not that simple now. Things on the front line are related to all three of our families. What you said is

Don't want to take care of the situation on the front line? Do you want Li Cong to take the responsibility himself? Can he bear it?

"Similar to what Senior God of Death said, I have indeed developed some defense systems. It can be said to defend against the current Eastern Empire soldiers.

They still took a lot of advantage. Just look at our battle loss ratio. My soldiers were all recruited temporarily, but

The soldiers of the Eastern Empire are experienced in many battles, and everyone knows their abilities. My soldiers can do it with them.
