Outworld: Rise of an Industrial Empire

When the news of Su Zheng's arming war against Duotu Port spread, the surrounding city-states immediately exclaimed, and the city lord of Duotu Port also hurriedly sent people to negotiate with Su Zheng.

"Master Su, burn down your workshop, it was done by the civilians, and our city lord did not have any such order. Of course, our lord is willing to compensate you, and we are willing to punish those untouchables! In addition, the matter of not allowing you to do business is mainly because of the troubles made by those rich merchants in our city, and our city lord is not well considered, and we will immediately lift the ban.

"Is that enough

?" "Ah, what else do you need?" "

First, to exempt all my caravans and workshops from taxes, second, to remove restrictions on the movement of the inhabitants of my territory and the city of Merlin on my behalf, and to allow our inhabitants to live and do business freely, and third, to give up three trestles in your port to us as our special unloading area. "

What... What the... This... Lord Su, these requests of yours... It's too much..."

The representative of Duotu Port stood up angrily, Su Zheng's business and construction workshops squeezed the market of Duotu Port, which was originally a serious damage to the industry of Duotu Port, and it was completely okay for Duotu Port to expel Su Zheng.

Leaving Su Zheng's industry alone is already a compromise with Su Zheng.

"Okay, then please go back, Chris, send off the guests, let Thunder organize the army immediately!"

"Hey... Su-sama... I can't make a decision... I need to go back and ask our city lord..."

As soon as he heard Su Zheng's threat of force, the representative of Duotu Port immediately coaxed, Su Zheng now has three cities in his hands, and his troops are much more than Duotu Port.

"Then give you 1 day, and if I don't get the news by this time tomorrow, then my army will be visiting your city-state.

After saying that, Su Zheng ignored him, stood up and walked towards the door.

As soon as he went out, He Jing stopped Su Zheng and asked a little puzzled:

"Hey... What the hell do you want to do? He has promised to compensate and resume business, why do you still make those excessive demands

?" Su Zheng crossed his hands and said with a smile:

"Dignity is only above the shadow of the blade and sword, and truth is only within the range of the cannon!"

"Can't you develop well in peace?" ..... as before

." He Jing's words made Su Zheng stunned for a moment, and then he understood He Jing's thoughts, and then glanced at the representative of Duotu Port in the room, and said to He Jing with a smile:

"I understand, you should be very disgusted with war, don't worry, they won't dare to fight." "

.

"* (A plant)!" Su

Zheng covered his face and glanced at He Jing on the side.

"Your Highness... I have gathered my troops after receiving the news, and now the army is ready to meet the enemy! Our muskets are already hungry and thirsty!"

Lei Ming said with one hand on the handcuff on his right waist and the hilt of the long sword on his left waist with the other.

"Ahem, the other side is so bold, he really dares to send troops..."

Su Zheng rubbed his temples and said, while glancing at He Jing again.

Su Zheng only felt that his face was beaten and hurt, and he had sworn that he would not fight, and even if Duotu Port did not accept these treaties, at least he should continue to talk.

As a result, I didn't expect the city lord of Duotu Port to be so arrogant, his attitude was like a roller coaster, and as soon as he heard Su Zheng's request, he was angry and came up directly, not only did he not agree to the conditions, but also directly sent 2,000 soldiers to be stationed at the border with Tide City, declaring that he would never compromise with Su Zheng again.

"Chris, how much equipment do we have now?"

"There are 320 muskets, 50 cannons of various sizes, more than 17,000 grenades, and countless projectiles from the guns, all of which are iron pellets. "

Okay, thunder, ammunition and grenades are distributed according to the cardinal number, and the team sets off at once. Saying

that, Su Zheng stood up and walked outside, and when he heard this, He Jing immediately stopped Su Zheng and said:

"Wait a minute, you really want to invade Duotu Port

?" "The words are all released, if you don't fight, you will lose face, and we will have no deterrent power in the future, how can I still mix in this area?"

"But you are invading now? What is the difference between it and the original Ted City? Your demands are even more excessive than the original Ted City!".

Su Zheng waved his hand and said

, "Okay, I'm going to the barracks to hold a mobilization meeting now, let's go." "

But you already have three cities, aren't you still satisfied?"

Hearing this, Su Zheng didn't speak, but walked straight out of the council hall.

"I'm a little uncomfortable today..."

Seeing this, He Jing didn't follow, but turned his back to Su Zheng and said.

After Su Zheng left, He Jing sighed helplessly and returned to his room.

At this time, Mary brought a cup of hot coffee and handed it to He Jing, who took the coffee and said to

Mary, "Mary, have you noticed that since he made that gunpowder, he has changed..."

Now the blacksmiths of the three cities are working hard to craft guns and pellets.

Hearing this, He Jing turned his head to look at Mary, and there was something incredible in his eyes.

"It turns out that he has been preparing for war..... After

a while, she looked at Mary with some reproach and said

, "It's all your fault, why did you help him win these two cities?" "I'm

sorry master... I made my own decision..."

He Jing stood up, walked to the window, sighed, and said with disappointment in his eyes:

"Hey, the desire for power is really going to change a person... Now all he thinks about is expanding..... I'm afraid that the only pure land in this holy continent will no longer exist again.....

".

On the outskirts of Su Xincheng

, in the tent of the military district, Su Zheng, Lei Ming, Li Zhen and several others sat around the long table.

Wang Wei, a staff officer of the army, stood up and reported the situation of the soldiers to Su Zheng:

"We have a total of 1,800 grenadiers, and there are 300 reservists. The cavalry consisted of 300 men, all of whom had the ability to throw and use guns. "

Okay, let's send out all the grenadiers and cavalry this time, my tactics are like this, you see..."

Su Zheng spread out the map on the table, pointed to it and continued:

"The enemy is stationed here, all their soldiers are gathered together, my plan is to attack from the front with 500 grenadiers on each side, and 300 grenadiers to go around to the rear. There were also 200 cavalry from both sides to the rear to form an encirclement, leaving 100 cavalry to mobile support.

"What about the armament?"

"Once the artillery is fired from the front, the enemy will definitely be suppressed, so the enemy will definitely not attack from the front, and the rear grenadiers are equipped with 200! The rest are equipped on the left and right, and the cannons are equipped on the front.

Lei Ming nodded, and asked again

: "Then commander, should we expose the musket and artillery in this battle?"

Hearing this, Su Zheng looked at the map and thought about it, and said after a while:

" On the one hand, if we don't expose it, our strength is not strong enough for the time being, and on the other hand, and most importantly, if we don't expose it, we can continue to create a sense of panic in the future, as long as the enemy does not know about the existence of artillery, and when it comes to encounters, once the artillery is fired, the enemy will immediately panic or even rout! "

Well, the cavalry won't let go of a deserter who leaves the battlefield. "

Well, we must annihilate all the enemies, and not a single signal soldier can be spared!"
