Chapter 229 Village chief, a god-level powerhouse?
At this time, a senior officer sitting at the end of the conference table stood up and asked Su Yu respectfully: "Your Majesty Nemesis, how do you use this weapon?"
Su Yu picked up the flintlock gun: "Let me demonstrate it to you."
He held the gun in his left hand, took out a paper packet of gunpowder from his backpack with his right hand, and tore open the gunpowder packet with his mouth.
He then poured some of the gunpowder into the powder cell of the flintlock musket. Close the lid of the gunpowder tank, place the barrel upright, and pour the other part of the gunpowder into the barrel.
Then, he pulled out the purge bar inserted under the barrel and pushed the gunpowder in the barrel to the bottom to prevent the gunpowder and bullets from falling out.
Finally, he pulled the purge out of the barrel and put it back in place.
The preparation work is complete here.
Next, he raised the flintlock, depressed the firing pin, and pulled the trigger toward the conference room wall.
Bang!
The bullet flew out of the gun and made a dark hole in the white wall of the conference room.
All the senior officials of the empire present silently watched Su Yu's performance.
Seeing the lethality of the flintlock rifle, they were not too surprised, but many of them looked disappointed.
Acting Marshal Lucas folded his arms and coughed twice, and said: "Your Majesty Nemesis, if my estimate is correct, the power of your weapon is roughly equivalent to the power of an arrow shot by a first-level archer, which is not very powerful. ”
Other officers nodded in agreement.
The soldiers of the empire's elite troops are generally at level 2 or 3. Su Yu's weapons are okay against ordinary people, but are useless against elite troops and have no ability to turn the tide of the battle.
Of course Su Yu knew this and smiled:
"My lords, this weapon is prepared for ordinary people. The range of the flintlock gun is about 80 meters. The equipment of ordinary people can greatly improve the combat capability of individual soldiers.
Moreover, my territory also provides another kind of weapon. The two weapons cooperate with each other, allowing ordinary people who have been trained to form an army with strong combat effectiveness. ”
Su Yu took out a [Magic Image Stone] from his backpack and projected the magic image inside on the wall.
Another new weapon Su Yu mentioned is - [Artillery].
[Artillery] can be clicked on the military technology tree after the territory scale is increased to [County City].
Moreover, artillery is a powerful weapon for attacking and defending cities. Su Yu's territory has done much more research on artillery technology than muskets.
Musket technology is still stuck at the level of old-fashioned flintlock guns that fire one shot every 20 seconds, which is the level of Blue Star's firearms in the 16th century;
Artillery technology has been upgraded from the old-fashioned smoothbore muzzle-loading cannon that fires solid ball bullets to the spiral rifled cannon that fires cone-headed cylinder long explosive bombs. It has reached the level of Blue Star on the eve of World War I in the 19th century!
In the magical image, rows of artillery roared and shot out the shells, hitting the mound of soil at the target 3 kilometers away, blowing up the mound into dust.
Su Yu stood next to the image and introduced: "This kind of weapon is called "artillery". The power of each cannon is almost equivalent to the damage caused by the area of effect spell released by a second-level peak magician. Moreover, the range of the artillery is much farther than that of a second-level peak magician." It can accurately hit targets 3 kilometers away.
Of course, the most critical point is that ordinary people can also control artillery.
2-3 ordinary people operating the artillery can exert a combat effectiveness equivalent to that of a second-level peak magician. This can greatly make up for our lack of military strength. ”
"Three kilometers range?" Lucas' eyes lit up.
"Second-level peak magicians" with a range of three kilometers can play a big role on the battlefield if there are a large number of them!
He looked at Roland, the master of the Silver Pine Spire next to him.
Roland nodded: "According to the magic image, the power of the weapons on the screen is indeed similar to the power of the second-level peak magician's range of spells. This is what Mr. Nemesis is right about."
After getting Roland's affirmation, Lucas felt confident.
He looked at the princess who was sitting in the chair: "Your Royal Highness, I think we can try to purchase a batch of these new weapons, maybe they will have miraculous effects."
"Okay, let's purchase a batch first to try the effect." Princess Alijie did not hesitate: "Nemesis, your territory is in Oran City, right?" "That's right."
"When we arrive in Oran City, you will bring all the new weapons produced into the army."
"No problem."
The princess stood up and looked at everyone present: "Then it's settled. From today on, we will start preparing to evacuate, and we will all evacuate Forest City before the rebels arrive.
Nemesis, you are responsible for training new weapons and supporting troops, and the expenses will be borne by the empire's finances. ”
"Okay, Your Royal Highness." The senior officials of the empire present responded one after another.
After chatting about some less important issues, the meeting officially ended.
The senior officials of the empire left the conference room one after another.
Not long after, only Princess Alijie was left in the conference room, as well as Su Yu who stayed after receiving the prompt from Alijie's eyes.
There was no one else in the conference room now. Su Yu looked at the princess: "Alizee, why do you want me to stay?"
Alijie held her hair and said: "Nemesis, do you still remember that a week ago, I used [the best sword in the village] to control Xifan and finally prevented him from self-destructing?"
"Of course I remember, what happened?"
A week had passed for Alijie, but only a dozen hours had passed for Su Yu. How could he forget?
Alijie looked serious: "[The best sword in the village] is a law weapon. Only an eighth-level god-level expert can create a law weapon."
Su Yu: "!!!"
He was really shocked this time: "You mean, the village chief is a god-level powerhouse?! That's not right! Aren't humans two god-level powerhouses?"
In the previous life, some players had analyzed the village chief and concluded that the village chief was a hidden strong man, and his strength should be above the seventh level.
However, the players did not get much information. After all, the village chief's presence is too low, and there are very few plots related to him.
I just didn't expect that the village chief could be so strong?
Alijie shook her head: "I don't know if the village chief is a god-level powerhouse. I asked my ancestors, and they have always been very secretive about this."
"But you also know that we are currently extremely short of high-level strong men, so I would like to ask the village chief to take action to jointly deal with the rebel forces."
Alijie took out a beautifully wrapped letter from the space ring and handed it to Su Yu:
"Nemesis, while we haven't left Forest City in the past few days, you can go to Nolan Village and deliver this letter to the village chief. On the one hand, you are expressing your gratitude to him, and on the other hand, you are inviting him to come out, hoping that he can Contribute to the survival of the Empire ”
As soon as Alijie finished speaking, Su Yu received a game prompt:
"Ding, your main plot has been updated, [Glory of the Plantagenet Empire (46/100)]."
"Task requirement: Deliver the personal letter from Princess Alijie to the head of Nolan Village."
"Mission reward: Second-level skill scroll [Thunder Storm] X1."
