I really don't want to hang up

Chapter 172 The Half-ton Medal
Blood stained the river green.

Orc blood is green.

The air seems to still be filled with the smoke of the battlefield, and the earth-shattering shouts of killing can be heard, and scenes of thrilling fighting
Looking at the broken limbs and broken arms constantly floating on the river, Luden's eyes were cold and indifferent, making it impossible to figure out what he was thinking.

"Panger won."

Even without Luden speaking, everyone can come to the same conclusion.

Big win!

This great victory is destined to leave a strong mark in the history of the Republic of God!
Even if Pang died of a sudden heart attack now, it would not affect his evaluation in history.

Because, in the past [-] years, he was the first human commander to defeat the orcs head-on.

Moreover, with the evolution of the battle situation, Pang Ge still has the opportunity to counterattack the orcs.

When the tide of beasts recedes, use Snow River City as a base to cut off the tide of beasts and further expand the results of the battle.
In the pre-war outlook, the most ideal situation will be realized little by little, and the balance of victory will fall to Shenbang!

After standing by the snow river for less than ten minutes, Lu Deng turned and left, and at the same time ordered to go down,
"Send civilians to clean up the river, pick up the corpses of the orcs, burn them together, and pay attention to drinking water and food to prevent plague."

"Raise the alert level to the highest level, and the legion will fully take over the defense of Snow Valley Town."

"Street lights inside and outside the town have been repaired. Lighting at night is very important to prevent orcs from attacking at night."

"."

There is no need to celebrate this victory.

Because, a more difficult battle is coming soon.

Following Luden's instructions one after another, the entire Snow Valley Town got busy, making final preparations for the battle.

As for mobilization
Not much mobilization is required.

On the one hand, the main army of Xuegu Town is composed of the forces of the Yisha family and the army of St. Thunder's Wrath.

The former is the hometown of the Yisha family, the kind that can follow the Yisha family to rise up when the Yisha family is at its worst.

As for St. Thunder's Wrath, it is a new army.

On the surface, this new army is under the jurisdiction of Aiur, obeys the orders of the Senate, and does not belong to any family.

In fact, Luden and Pang are in control.

Candidates for each echelon were recommended by Pang, and then interviewed by Luden, and finally admitted.

The training method also abandoned Shenbang's previous combat mode.

Hoplites?

Light cavalry?

chariot?

Do not!
artillery!

That's right, St. Thunder's Wrath is an artillery regiment!
Only the roar of artillery can match their names.

From the beginning of construction, the group was trained to use the gun, familiarize themselves with the performance, and study the shooting angles.
San Thunder's Wrath is the only professional artillery regiment.

Before the start of the war, some elders suggested that St. Thunderfury follow Pang to the north and shine in Snow River City, which is destined to be the most intense battlefield.

Pang refused, without giving a reason.

He was Pang, and he didn't need to give anyone a reason in the matter of war.

Some elders also suggested that this artillery regiment should stay in the Kingdom of God and guard it.

When Luden went to Snow Valley Town, he insisted on taking this army away. The reason is simple:
Regardless of whether there are artillery or not, the state of God is the state of God, and it is impossible to be broken by orcs.

The veterans didn't understand, what is the use of an artillery regiment without artillery on the front line.

At the insistence of the dictator Luden, he still took away the artillery corps.

In addition to the Legion of Direct Lineage, Luden also has a trump card.

The workshops in the mine, skilled craftsmen, backbones and skilled workers in the company have all been transferred here!
Of course, Luden didn't come here to fool them.

On the one hand, he promised high salary, land and various rewards, on the other hand, he tried to arouse people's hatred of orcs.

Luden found that there was no need to do anything by himself.

The common people of the Kingdom of God hated the orcs.

The poorer people are, the more they hate orcs!

Even slaves.

Lu Deng can only sigh with emotion, "It is indeed much easier to transform internal conflicts into external conflicts."

Hatred only makes one temporarily generous.

It is Misso who really inspires people's courage.

Luden promised that as long as he is willing to follow in his footsteps, after this battle, regardless of victory or defeat, the slaves will be restored to freedom, and each commoner will be allocated land worth 2000 meters. Of course, these lands will be farther north, closer to the orcs. closer.

Lu Deng and others threw all their wealth into this war.

Once they win, their loot will be extremely rich, beyond everyone's imagination!

If Shenbang wins and the orcs are repelled, then Shenbang will further expand on the current territory!
To the north, the orcs who were seriously injured could not threaten the kingdom of God.

Going south, the fertile peninsula will surrender at the foot of Shenbang.

During the Eastern Expedition, the trade routes will be further expanded, and countless gold and silver treasures will pour into the Kingdom of God.

Most of the land in the west has been included in the territory of Shenbang.

Further to the west is a sea. I heard that there are a few broken islands on the other side of the sea, which are occupied by orcs, and there is no soil for human survival.

After defeating the orcs, the good days of the kingdom of God will really come!

Moreover, looking at the results of Pangge's battle, it is not as difficult as expected for Shenbang, which is advancing by leaps and bounds in technology, to resist the beast tide.

For the orcs in the cold weapon era, artillery can be regarded as a dimensionality reduction blow to a certain extent.

As long as his logistics can keep up.

Pong needs more guns, more shells, more gunpowder
These things, the reserves in Xueyun City, cannot meet Pang Ge's needs.

Luden can handle supplies such as shells and gunpowder.

What about artillery?
You can't rub your hands in Snow Valley Town, right?

While everyone else was busy, Luden found someone—Jeff in charge.

The vice president of St. Peter's Sanatorium, the steward of the Yager family, is now helping in Xuegu Town.

Luden took out a map and handed it to the other party.

"This is the map of the water pipes in Snow Valley Town. Take your people, as well as the artisan dwarves and migrant workers, to dig out the water pipes."

Dig out the pipe?

Jeff didn't understand, why did such a thing at such a critical moment?
Fortunately, there have been too many things that he doesn't understand over the years.

Jeff is used to it.

According to Lu Deng's instructions, he called on the manpower, went to the site, and started the excavation work.

Of course, Jeff didn't forget to call his master.

Ryan, dressed in black and white striped clothes, squatted by the pit and watched people work.

After a while, the water pipe was dug.

When people cleaned up the soil layer to reveal the original appearance of the water pipe, everyone fell into silence.

They had never seen a water pipe like this.

Cast iron, extremely thick, with one end sealed.
Luden called this a water pipe?

Jeff was strolling around Xuegu Town these days and had seen some defensive facilities. After inquiring, he learned that those things were called artillery.

The water pipe in front of you is more like a large cannon!

Bigger than any cannon Jeff has ever seen.

"Why are you still standing still?!"

Ryan, who was wearing black and white striped clothing, stood up and shouted,

"Dig the water pipe!"

The people who came back to their senses no longer cared about what the water pipe was, and continued the excavation work.

Not long after the excavation work was carried out, the elders of Sirui rushed over after hearing the news.

"Dictator Luden, the Senate needs an explanation."

Looking at the dug-up land in front of him, Elder Sirui's face was gloomy,
"What the hell are these 'water pipes' all about?"

First of all, a thing is called a pipe, at least if the two ends are connected, right?
The iron pipe in front of Kesi Rui Senator,

More like a gun barrel.

Well, the barrel is also a barrel!
Secondly, Snow Valley Town is close to the Snow River, and a part of the town is built on the water.

Do places like this really need plumbing?
The veteran of Sirui has been in Xuegu Town for so many days, and he has never used a water pipe!

Why did the Palace of Greed allocate a large sum of money to build unnecessary water pipes in Xuegu Town?

Why did the underground water pipes suddenly turn into this strange appearance?
The ability to transport these cannons to Snow River City was beyond Luden's ability.

It can be hidden in Snow Valley Town, and after the war starts, use Snow River to transport it to Snow River City.
Luden can still do this little thing.

Even the elders can realize that there is something wrong with the strange water pipe in front of them!

Moreover, looking at this posture, it seems that the water pipe can be transformed into another object after simple processing - artillery!
It doesn't even need to be processed at all!
This is a cannon!
The gun barrel is even treated with anti-rust and moisture-proof treatment. There is also a fixed position on the gun barrel, and an iron hook can be hung on it to pull it up with a sling!
Faced with the attack from the veteran Sirui, Lu Deng calmly explained,

"As you can see, we are digging a trench to stop the attack of the orcs, unfortunately, we found that the water pipe is just under the trench.

The good news is that we can hoist the pipes and save us a lot of time digging trenches.

The bad news is that after the war, Snow Valley Town needs to lay new water pipes. I believe that with the generosity of the Senate and the Palace of Greed, they will not care about these small money. "

Elder Siri's face was gloomy and uncertain.

He took two steps forward and said in a low voice,

"Luden, damn it, I don't care what you and Pangge are going to do. I watched Pangge grow up. Even if the Yager family is destroyed, as long as Pangge is here, everything still makes sense."

Elder Sirui babbled a lot before he got to the main point.

With a distorted expression, he growled,
"The Senate expressly prohibits large-caliber artillery from leaving the Kingdom of God, Luden, are you crazy? Do you want to openly break with the Senate!"

It was obvious that he was really in a hurry.

Hearing the words of Elder Sirui, Lu Deng suddenly realized, and said loudly,
"Elder Si Rui suggested that these water pipes can be changed into cannons, and the workshop will work overtime tonight to verify the idea of ​​​​Elder Siri!

If it is done, it will be a great achievement, and everyone's overtime pay will be doubled! "

Hearing Luden's words, many dwarves and humans accelerated their work.

Is it the water pipe or the gun barrel?
Luden said it was a water pipe, and it was a water pipe!

Refers to the cannon as water.

Elder Siri:? ? ?

When did it become my proposal?
How did he get dragged into the water?

"This is the second wisest proposal the Senate has made this year, after my nomination as dictator."

Luden tightly held the hand of Elder Siri, and said from the bottom of his heart,

"When this war is won, I will, as a dictator, give you a half-ton medal!"
