Chapter 1610 1582. New Materials
"They shook hands on the Tiffany River, which can be seen as the upper and lower Yadian dividing lines."
Gued concluded.
"Marquis Mansfield of Ad Kale, with Mennon Kuhoun, commander of the Eastern Front of the Nifgad Empire, they shook hands on the bloody and dying corpse of the Kingdom of Aden."
"The despicable division of the spoils is the most despicable handshake in the world."
"Mennon Kuhoun." Lan En savored the name of the senior general of the Southern Empire who had been let go by himself, "but it was still pretty good."
"Mennon Kuhoun is still very sober. Whether it is his self-reliance and soberness, or the soberness I achieved last time."
"Anyway, as the commander of the Eastern Front, he has not slaughtered the city since the war started. At present, it seems that he has only recruited civilians as laborers, and the slave transactions that are the foundation of the Niphgad Empire have been suppressed by him."
"Last time in Sodeng Mountain, I spared his life. Now, only judging from the innocent casualties, it is worth it."
"It's really shocking." Acekel began to pickle a pickled cucumber and chew it. "Wengerburg, the capital of Aden, they resisted Nifgaard for several weeks. Everyone thought that after the city was broken, the Nifgaards would vent their anger."
"But they didn't. It is said that Mennon Kuhoun was also suppressed."
"But you are here to feel that the money is worth it. If all the northern commanders on the Eastern Front battlefield know the causes and consequences, they will probably only hate you for being spared a powerful enemy."
Gued smiled and scooped a spoonful of honey onto the plate as dipping sauce.
"The Eastern Front troops under Mennon Kuhoun completely broke them through, and they didn't even breathe."
"And he has managed the military discipline with this kind of military discipline. It is good to say it is good, or it is bad to say it is bad. The good thing is that he has never slaughtered the city. Now there are many scattered rebels and guerrillas in Aden and Livia."
"The bad thing is that seeing the Niphgads stop massacring, the people's resistance to Niphgads has become more sluggish than in the previous war."
The so-called "not afraid of the enemy being too reactionary, just be afraid of the enemy not being reactionary."
The more you do anything you carelessly, the more you will feel scared and fearful. But the more this happens, the more people they will force them into enemies, and the force of opposition will naturally become greater and more determined.
So instead of being fickle, going back and forth, we will only move forward.
But for Lan En, he only had one sentence.
"That's no difference to me."
Mennon Kuhoun rectified military discipline and strengthened organizational strength, and even eased the northerners' attitude towards Nifgaard a lot, but Lane didn't care.
It was like he didn't care about letting the other party go.
"Ha!" Suddenly, Cassandra sighed loudly. Her eyes were about to burn Lane through Margarita. "You make me feel excited now!"
Margarita's head turned around and looked at Lane and then at Cassandra.
The sorcerer was convinced that this hot look was not about burning people, but about burning clothes that were in the way.
Kassandra's eyes were like lionesses staring at prey, and her drinking wine was like a wild bite.
The Spartans' love for the strong and war is self-evident.
The scenes discussed today, as well as the existence of Lan Eun, are almost as attractive as reciting an erotic article in person for Cassandra.
Margarita's eyebrows couldn't help but jump.
The almost explicit expression of love from the Hawksman slightly broke the heavy feeling of talking about war just now.
Compared to the hysterical battlefield, it is now a precious truce period after all.
Lan En left half a year ago, and the Second Northern War began. And a few months later, the weather turned colder and winter began.
The Niphgads' soldiers were invincible, but because they were too aggressive, they led to a rapid advance and stretched the front line too long.
The supply line is also greatly lengthened, and the supply pressure is directly stretched to the point where it is close to the explosion.
In addition, the severe cold in winter will be more tormenting for the military and the supply required will be even greater.
So throughout the winter, the Niphgads shrank a little further south.
On the coast of the Western Front, the Niphgads stopped outside the border of Hidalis.
On the eastern front, they did not fight with the Codwin people, but just guarded the occupied Lower Aden area.
The Central Army, they had already made an attempt to siege Malipo before the beginning of winter.
Of course, the second largest city in Temolia is not so easy to be completely surrounded, it is basically just like a coercive look.
But after the beginning of winter, they also retreated southward to the near the Taimolia border. Only the Majena Castle, which is a fortress in the border, is left, as the occupied base of advance, and is stuck there like nails.
During the truce period, it is precisely because of this tacit understanding that the existence of the unwritten truce period that they can temporarily relax and have a banquet here.
But this truce will not last long, because spring is coming.
Lan En didn't want it to grow any longer.
"The Niphgads have grown a lot. Not to mention anything else, their army is at least inspiring to make progress."
Cassandra broke the heavy topic atmosphere, and thus could say something easier. Berengal is now very interested in discussing the new things that the Nilfgads showed in this war.
"Since the war started, there have been a steady stream of orders at factories, but this is actually very normal. Who wouldn't want Valyrian Steel to come to the armed forces?"
"But the front-line officers of Temolia have also come to the factory many times to consult me and various blacksmith masters."
"They said that the military equipment of the Nifgads now has shown strong performance, especially projection equipment such as bows and crossbows, bed crossbows, catapults, etc.."
"There is still a Valyrian steel crossbow rod on the wall of the city of Maripo, but it has not been pulled down. The thing has pierced through the city wall seven or eight meters thick! No one knows how to pull it out!"
"Believe me, even if you add more materials to the regular crossbow, you can't do this! Enchantment is not possible!"
"Maybe the magician can directly control and cast strong spells? But that is unlikely, because the mage's magic has to be used for more places, so why tie it with a crossbow? Isn't this a waste of high-end manpower?"
"So I guess, it's probably Nifgaard's side, and there's really progress in researching new metal materials."
Berengal's face was not surprised, but was excited.
The formula of Valyrian Steel is when Lane took the samples and the residual spell, and then he was responsible for the smelting technology, and Margarita was responsible for the reproduction of the spell.
The newest ⊥Xiao⊥Speak⊥Send⊥Six⊥9⊥Book⊥⊥⊥⊥Back⊥⊥⊥⊥!
This is also the first time that magic interference has been deeply rooted in the ore stage in this world's not-long history of magic development.
The resulting Valyrian steel is indeed excellent.
But there are no other geniuses in this world.
Even if there is no way to develop new metal materials, Valyrian steel itself is a metal with good biofusion.
Lan En's [Turbidden Stream] was formed by integrating the extermination dragon material into the New World technique. Its properties are very different from the original Valyrian steel.
Even if others cannot do groundbreaking research, it is entirely possible to make some extended breakthroughs based on it.
However, Valyrian Steel has been around for a few years in the market, and people are still pursuing the profits it brings. It is difficult to have the motivation to develop new products before profits are clean and the market is weak.
But for Niphgaard, a militaristic slavery empire, the desire and pursuit of a stronger armament was natural.
Their R&D motivation is too strong.
It is estimated that the research will be launched after the first batch of Valyrian steel was obtained.
The performance in this war is nothing more than fruitfulness and technical verification.
"Wait!"
But Berengal was calm, but others were uneasy.
Kassandra opened her mouth wide: "Ma~ Lakka! Are you talking about the bows and arrows that can shoot through the city walls?"
"What's the horse?" Berengal didn't understand this kind of 'ancient Greek elegance', but he still responded to the second half after he was puzzled, "Of course there is. Although it is a material installed on a crossbow, it must be very powerful when used on a bow and arrow!"
"You mean you can do it again?!"
"What else?" Berengal always felt proud when talking about his blacksmith's craftsmanship, and this is no exception.
He leaned back against the back of the chair, looking like Zhizhu was holding it.
"That new material was obviously developed by Nifgaard for projection weapons. It should have good elasticity, strength, and a pity to withstand deformation. If there is a finished product of Nifgaard, or formula or idea, it should not be difficult to study this thing."
Berengal muttered about his expertise.
And across from his table, Cassandra muttered.
"That is, I need to go to the battlefield to destroy a few crossbows you mentioned to collect wreckage, and then maybe infiltrate into the territory of their commander or logistics officers, eavesdrop on their conversations, or steal some documents directly?"
Berengal wanted to say that's true.
But reality is definitely many times more complicated than the three mission goals listed by Cassandra.
The basic idea is correct, but who can do it?
He believed in Lan En's combat effectiveness, but he was not optimistic that this big guy could not show off his strength in actions such as infiltrating and stealing.
But when Berengal looked up, he suddenly found that Kassandra opposite the table was eager to try.
Obviously, the hawk trainer now wants to appear in the Nifgadian barracks immediately and start his operation.
"Hey? Are you really here?"
Berengal is now interested.
He knew very well that Lan Eun would definitely be a powerful person, not a fool who had listened to the conversation for a long time but had not realized that the Niffgaards were not easy to mess with.
Then Cassandra's performance is that she is confident?
"You said before, do you want to make new equipment? Then, if you bring me their new materials, how about I try to make it for you?"
The eagle trainer's eyes lit up.
