Release that Witch

538. Wheels of the Age of Chapter 538

    First Army completed the follow-up replenishment work and will soon start again.

    This is also the second half of the spring offensive – capturing Willow Town and Fallen Dragon Ridge. The former will bring the entire Western Region into one, while the latter is the easiest way to the southern region.

    Considering that the two towns were not “easily guarded”, Roland gave the command to Iron Axe and he no longer went out with the team. Due to the recent attack on Kingdom Capital, the morale of the army is extremely high, and the professional soldiers have gradually emerged as the prototype of the modern army. They do not need the feudal lord to personally lead the troops to execute the operational orders, so Roland has no worries about the outcome of the battle. . As long as the investigation work is done well and the artillery units are steadily advanced, the enemy will not be able to turn any waves.

    The reconstruction of the post-war order is the focus of his attention.

    Fortunately, Willow Town is small, no need to set up a full-featured subordinate City Hall like the Longsong region, just arrange the corresponding department office. Now that Bentham has been able to provide a basic set of managers, it is not difficult to incorporate Willow Town into the political system of Neverwinter City.

    As for Fallen Dragon Ridge, she will be handed over to Speer Earl for management. After Timothy’s fall, she has vowed to loyal to Roland and agreed to accept the Western Region’s management model. In order to help her take over the city and clean up the rebellious noble, it is necessary to dispatch the First Army.

    What’s more, in the future, whether it is to further annex the southern region or capture the Iron Sand City, the Fallen Dragon Ridge is a key traffic artery, so another purpose of the garrison is to prevent accidents. In any case, the city must be in control of Roland’s hands.

    “In this way, the number of First Army can be tight,” Iron Axe frowned. “Kingdom Capital currently has 500 people, and Willow Town and Fallen Dragon Ridge still have a thousand people. We There are only 1,500 troops left free to move, most of them are artillery. Neverwinter City may temporarily lose the ability to take the initiative.”

    “How was the recruit training for the expansion of the Months of Demon?”

    “The level of the regular troops is still far away,” he shook his head. “At least two or three months of training.”

    Roland becomes silent. When I first set up the militia team to defend against Evil Beast, it only took a month and a half to harden the scalp on the wall. Now the army is building more and more comprehensive, and even the qualification standards have increased a lot. In fact, it is possible to hear the instructions line up and pull the trigger at the target. In this era, it is a strong army. After all, the queues still need to be pushed against the opponent’s firepower, and here is just aiming at the enemy.

    “Don’t worry, the troops stationed at that time can be replaced with these recruits, and letting them play with the noble guards is a kind of exercise.”Roland said easily, “When the envoy of the refugees returns, the Neverwinter City will usher in a new population peak, and then we can continue to expand the size of the army.”

    Breaking through Kingdom Capital is far from over. The capture of the Fallen Dragon Ridge is just the beginning. If all goes well, he hopes that the entire Extreme Southern Region will be included in the territory before the arrival of the Months of Demon this year.

    If he can get a stable supply of Black water natural resource, he may be able to push the industrial level of Neverwinter City to a new level.

    Shortly after Iron Axe retired, Nightingale appeared silently in front of Roland.

    “Iffy wants to see you.”

……

    Looking at the Blood Tooth Association witch slowly entering the office, Roland felt some changes.

    Her pace is not as steady as it was when she first arrived, and the long hair of maroon is slightly messy, apparently not taking care of it. The look of vigilance and pride in the face faded a bit, replaced by a sense of chaos.

    At this time, she is more like a girl who is in line with this age.

    Iffy first took a ritual, and after a long silence, he said, “Your Majesty, Macy used…What is a weapon? ”

    Roland had long guessed that she would ask, nod to Nightingale, who pulled the revolver around her waist and placed it on the table.

    “She used a gun and used the gunpowder to push the projectile to kill the enemy.” He skillfully removed the bomb and poured out the bullet. “The pellets that deal with you have been specially modified and will not penetrate the body, otherwise you will die.” It is.”

    Iffy’s lips squirmed and seemed to want to say something, but finally swallowed back.

    Roland picked up a bullet and held it in front of him. “Do you see this thing?” It is no bigger than a little finger, but it requires a very complicated set of steps to produce it. In this process, hundreds of ordinary townspeople and three witches are involved, and no one can do it. And those witches are non-combat witches that you think are useless. Now, do you still think so? ”

    “I …She was hesitant and didn’t pick up for a long time.

    Roland didn’t give the other person too much time to think, and then said, “Maybe they can’t directly compete with you, but what does this mean?” An ordinary person is equally difficult to knock down a fierce beast with his fists and feet, but it is still humans, not the beasts, that ultimately occupy the world. ”

    “I prefer to call non-combat witches as auxiliary witches. They can give the vast majority of ordinary people new power through their own abilities, like guards who wield long swords and Shields. With these, the human side Can easily defeat the beast. In a sense, the support witch is more great than the combat witch. ”

    “You can have these weapons…It can play a more powerful role in the hands of combat witch,” Iffy whispered.

    “The gap is not obvious, at least not the outcome of a war,” Roland shook his head. “You can imagine that when you face ten ordinary warriors who use the same weapon, how many points do you have?” With such guns, my territory can produce seven or eight, and how many combat witches are there? Moreover, it is still not feasible to have weapons. To maintain the operation of these weapons, a huge production logistics team must be equipped, and the role of support witch is irreplaceable. ”

    He reassembled the guns and handed them back to Nightingale. “I know that you can’t understand this fact for a while – the reason why human beings are greater than the beasts is that they can use their wisdom to create power that the world has never had before. Magic power is undoubtedly the best tool, and you are wasting this talent. ”He paused for a moment. “Yes, the First Army reserve team will conduct rifle live ammunition training in the afternoon. I can arrange for you to visit it. When you can use your own eyes to observe it, what is the real power.”

    “The times have changed, Iffy.”
