There are scattered small islands here. When the tide is low, these small islands will be connected to form a channel leading to the main island of Inazuma. When the tide is high, these small islands will be the only ones left in a short period of time. The reefs exposed above the sea are called coral island chains because the islands are made up of coral reefs.

There are people living on some small islands. Their main livelihood is to fish for pearls. They don’t have any advanced equipment. They just take a breath and then dive to fish for pearls. At the limit, you can hold your breath for 5 minutes. Don’t think about it any longer. It’s easy to become Floating corpse.

Recently, a group of uninvited guests came here. These people don't look like good people and are armed. However, they are on good terms with the locals and even exchanged some rare items with them, such as steel. Exchange the ax you made for pearls, exchange the glass bottle for pearls, exchange the bullet casing for pearls...

Okay, okay, that’s what European colonists did, right?

Indeed, when one of the parties to the transaction is in a state of information asymmetry, it is highly likely that they will be cheated. However, the locals obviously do not feel that they have been cheated, because there are pearls everywhere here, but they can give them what they give. Can't be made. , and this team of about [-] people, equipped with a large number of Xumi civilian weapons, is the multinational force.

There are rice ronin from Haiji Island and other islands, as well as noble knights who ran away from Mondstadt, some sailors from Liyue caravan, intelligence officers from the Winter Fools, and even a Nata man. He also came out to make his way into the world.

What about Fontaine and Xumi?

Xumiru doesn’t have it. I wonder if Xumiru is short of manpower the most right now. Those with skills in Xumiru don’t have to worry about not having a job at all. Our own country doesn’t have enough, and even fewer people go out.

Fontaine does have two exclusive personnel for Tongliao Universe - maintenance engineers, whose main job is to maintain steam engines.

After Xumi began to phase out a large number of paddle steamers, Liyue took advantage of the price and bought a lot of them. However, the population in Xumi was not very exodus, so they had to use Fontaine engineers to replace them. They also had steam engines, so what? It can also play some role.

So when there was a shortage of technical personnel in Sumeru, many Fontaine engineers became steam engine maintenance engineers on steam paddle steamers. Although Sumeru's steam engines were somewhat different from Fontaine's steam engines, they were all about money and curiosity. In the past, many Fontaine engineers became maintenance engineers for Xumi steam engines, and even began to engage in research and development on this basis. The more they came into contact with Xumi technology, the more fanatically these Fontaine technicians worshiped Xumi.

Compared with Fontaine, Xumi is the real capital of technology.

Language is a big problem for this six-nation coalition. The Teyvat continent has a common language, a hieroglyphic system similar to the Liyue language, but the connection between the countries is not as close as modern society. Even in modern society, How many people can understand the full set of Japanese? Let alone speak Japanese. The dialects of various provinces in our country can bring down the American deciphering agency.

In ancient times, the problem of different pronunciations for ten miles could cause people to be in danger when they were away from home. Here, the six countries were cutting down the rice wives. The level of chaos was comparable to the multi-ethnic army of the Austro-Hungarian Empire. The matching degree was simply a disaster.

Do not believe?If you add sugar to a clear soup pot and invite Chongqing people to eat it, see if they will throw the hot pot over your head.

High emotional intelligence: multinational coalition.

Low EQ: a rabble.

Fortunately, there are still dedicated people in this team. Foolish People organizes them very seriously and is responsible for all aspects of translation, transportation, logistics, intelligence, supplies, etc. They can be called the ace nanny and winter political commissar in the team. Said to be established (convinced).

But it was still too difficult to organize the six-nation coalition. In the end, Zhidong and the Liyue merchants combined their forces and stopped forming a team. They just used them separately. As long as they cooperated properly, they could also create a multi-channel outflank effect.

So there is a team of Monds people, a team of Daozuma people, a team of Liyue people, a team of Zhidong people, and the remaining Natal and Fontaine people are too few in number, so let's just serve as the atmosphere team.

Despite encountering a lot of grass-growing problems, with advanced weapons in hand, this multinational force still felt the power from art and felt like it was full of firepower. It almost transformed into a devil on the spot and launched a Holy Grail War against Inazuma.

After careful preparations, everyone in the Fool believed that they could first take over a small island to test their skills, so the multinational forces set off overnight. After a bloody battle, twenty more friendly corpses were found on the ground.

This is because the Inazuma team is outflanking the left wing, and the Solstice team is outflanking the right wing. They originally thought they could engage the enemy at the same time, but the Inazuma soldiers who were in charge of garrisoning the area that day left their posts without authorization, and there was no one at the post. The stronghold was captured without any damage.

Because it went so smoothly, it created a time lag. The Zhidong team came up from behind. In the dark, when they heard the words of Dao Wife in front of them, there was no doubt that they were the enemy. Fire!

Because the attack was so sudden, the Inazuma team was caught off guard. The Zhidong translator in charge of the Inazuma team may have been speaking Inazuma frequently during this period, or he may have been nervous, or both. He shouted to his teammates below. When playing, he used the language of Daozhu, and as a result, the Zhidong team played more enthusiastically.

Fortunately, he reacted quickly and used Zhidong's words to prevent the situation from getting out of control further. Otherwise, it would not be the problem of twenty teammates, but the internal conflagration of the multinational forces. Zhidong's translator died tragically, and Inazuma decided to implement it the next day. People came to pick up the body.

The first stop was like a bear, and everyone was embarrassed. Fortunately, they had a common enemy to resolve the embarrassment later. The soldiers who had left their posts without permission returned and ran into the muzzle of the multinational force's guns.

The multinational force, which was extremely embarrassed by the previous incident, immediately turned their embarrassment into strength. With a volley of guns, they beat the twenty or so people on the opposite side into a sieve and successfully captured the stronghold.

At this time, the morale that had been lost before was recovered, so the commander of the Foolish People decided to strike while the iron was hot and directly captured the Wuming Village (zhai four sounds) in the west of Ba Ying Island, giving Inazuma a small amount of advanced power to shock .

As long as the assessment officers are made to feel fear, they can be forced to make a fuss about the national lockdown order.

Chapter 173: War breaks out on Ba Ling Island

(Third update! [-] words updated. Today, [-] words have been updated. You are very sincere. Where are your monthly votes?)

"This operation is very capitalistic."

Iers, who is busy fighting with the old forces in the country in the field of public opinion, has just received information that a multinational force with a complex composition that makes people's DNA knotted is fighting with the garrison of Inazuma Yao Island in Wumingzhai. In the smoke of war, Forging friendship.

The matter was unremarkable.

Because from the beginning to the end, Xumi did not have any direct contact with the other party, and those weapons were either civilian versions purchased by them or foreign trade civilian versions. Although people are allowed to hold guns in Xumi, after buying these guns, they can only It is stored in an officially designated shooting club in Xumi and must be registered and managed. This has two benefits:

First, the public has an understanding of weapons, which reduces future recruitment and training costs.

Second, open up the civilian market and share some of the pressure on military spending.

After buying a gun, you need to maintain and maintain it. These accessories are only sold in shooting clubs. The power of civilian bullets is slightly less, but the recoil and weight are exactly the same as weapons in the army, and the cost is higher than those in the army, such as universal models. The cost of bullets in the military ranges from [-] cent to [-] yuan, but in the civilian market it costs [-] to [-] yuan.

In short, it is an upgrade, but consumption that is acceptable to the general public, just treat it as another kind of entertainment. .

This policy has been implemented by Iles in many worlds, and the effect is quite good, and Xumi is no exception. It not only ensures that the bottom class of Xumi will not eat chicken every day due to the proliferation of firearms, but also effectively controls the civil society. As long as the government controls the quantity of weapons appropriately, it can become a good policy to generate sustainable income for military industrial enterprises.

Yes, yes, Ils also knows that problems may arise if not done well, but this is the case with any system. There are no problems with people, and the system can run well even if it is full of loopholes. But there are problems with people from head to toe, Lord Holy Minister. The country will be destroyed even if the virtuous are good. We are not afraid of good deeds, but afraid of good people. This principle is more reliable and universal than any other system.

A system only has value if people follow it.

If it really develops to the point where no one will comply one day, then managers should reflect on what is going on.

What if you don’t reflect?

The country will be subjugated, right? Ming Dynasty, well, he said yes.

Xumi's domestic weapons control is excellent, but it belongs to the international arms trade. How other people use the weapons sold is beyond the scope of Ils' consideration. It must be sold, and foreign trade It can allow Xumi's military production to continue to operate in peacetime and maintain production lines and workers. The majority of them are naturally the national troops changing uniforms, and those who have completely become militia weapons, or are not favored by the Red Turban Army at all. Weapons, with a little modification and maintenance, can be thrown into the international arms market in exchange for money. This is called a win-win situation.

Since the current Xumi arms belong to a proper seller's market, the Xumi arms, which have an absolute monopoly, are not cheap in the international market. The modified Desailai rifle has only been modified to be able to fire metal fixed weapons at a distance of The price of the new loaded version has doubled, and the market price is even more expensive, not counting bullets and parts maintenance. As for maintenance, sorry dear, that will cost extra.

The result is that a weapon that cost [-] yuan has been directly sold for [-] yuan in the international arms market, without any discounts or gifts. We are not competing with Xixi and Xunduoduo. Xumi does not have tens of billions of subsidies. , don’t buy it and get out.

At this cost, it was half cheaper than Zhidong's elemental weapons, so without knowing the cost of the Xumi weapons, the rich felt that the deal was worth it.

And these weapons have indeed played an unexpected and huge role on battlefields in foreign countries.

Because these Dressers are single-shot, non-automatic rifles, if they want to achieve high-density fire coverage, these people have to use the line infantry tactics that have been eliminated by the Red Turban Army for mass shooting. The tactics and weapons of the two sides are directly different by 50 Year, but this is a rifled breech-loading rifle anyway. It is technically quite mature. There is no need to install an additional flash cap and medicine tank. You can just pull the bolt, load the bullet and then close it to shoot. The effective range is 300 meters.

The enemy's light ballistae has basically no accuracy within this range. If it is pulled closer to within 100 meters, it will end up being pressed to the ground and rubbed. On the battlefield of Wuming Village, these five hundred warriors have been ordered to follow the plan The soldiers were miserable.

Yes, yes, the regular army of Tianling has not arrived on the battlefield yet, but the determination of the army is not unreasonable. It can guarantee the strength of the sea blockade, which is enough to prove that their combat effectiveness is not bad. It is just because they were crushed by weapons. The simplest example of causing various problems is that on the frontal battlefield, the soldiers who were determined to follow the plan launched an attack in a neat square formation, and then were bombed to pieces, and their morale was turbulent. At this time, they were equipped with a metal fixed-loading version of the Dresser rifle. , it is very simple to defeat these ashigaru.

Wait, after being bombed, did these people buy artillery?

Not really, but they bought a lot of grenades, and then used trebuchets and ballistas to launch cluster grenades. It was a bit rustic like gas tank cannons on the Syrian battlefield, but it was really easy to use.

Whether it is the cold weapon age or the firearms age, large weapons pursue large-area destruction. What large-area destruction can be compared to the art brought by explosives, even black explosives.

Even though the grenades sold in foreign trade are filled with black powder, they are a classic formula with added sugar. They are very heavy and contain small steel balls. The effect of the explosion is quite brutal. Injured shogunate soldiers often have to face the helplessness of the steel balls in their bodies. The problem of effective removal led to wound infection and death. It was rumored that the weapons of the invading army were poisoned, which directly led to a further decline in the morale of the shogunate army.

At this point, the survey was completely unable to hold on. They had already lost more than 3000 people on the Wumingzhai side. Before, their fleet could go out to harass the Haiji Island side, but now they are almost guarding the nearest port. Can't stand it anymore.

At the same time, after seeing the hope of victory for the multinational forces here, Liyue businessmen also became excited and felt that this was a good opportunity to open the door of Daowu, so they began to invest more and recruited more Daowu from the local area. People go to war.

Are the locals so dissatisfied with the Inazuma Shogunate?

There is a high probability that they are not dissatisfied with Thor, or they dare not be dissatisfied, but they are definitely dissatisfied with the implementation of the national lockdown order, very dissatisfied.

Not to mention other places, Baling Island has developed to the point where all the fish along the coast have been caught.

From an environmental point of view, Hachijima Island is relatively good among the three main islands of Inazuma, with a food self-sufficiency rate of more than 70.00%[-]. However, Hachijima Island does not receive any of the eight major fishing grounds of Inazuma, and Hajijima Island does. There are two here.

Before the lockdown, fishing in the waters near the island from Baling Island was an important means of survival to supplement the local food shortage. In this way, the locals could survive under the land rent and land tax of [-] to [-]. The ocean is the granary of civilians, and A guarantee mechanism to maintain the stable operation of society on Baling Island.

But as soon as the lockdown order was promulgated, all these were gone, and the fishery on Haiji Island was seriously affected, not to mention Ba Ying Island. Based on the output of the island alone, they would have to starve to death at least half of the people before they could consider anything else.

The reason why there has not yet been a large-scale rebellion in Inazuma is that on the one hand, the thunder god's reputation suppresses it, and on the other hand, the locals have to choose to stick together and endure in the island living environment, otherwise more people will die.

Another point is that the local big business owners have become a little more conscientious and have adjusted the tax to [-] per cent. In addition, there is still some food and drink available along the coast, so it will be no problem to last for a while.

But this kind of support is barely maintained, and sooner or later it will reach its limit. In another year or two, the locals will have to choose between fighting to the end or starving to death on the spot.

At this time, the Sumeru people came and brought prosperity and change to Haizhi Island. What did the civilians of Yaoji Island across the sea think? After sieving.

Unreasonable policies can only be suppressed by force. It is the only option and is also a bottom line that must not be broken. Now this bottom line has been crushed by Xumi's steel fleet, and the Xumi people have also built a blatant smuggling route.

Look at the size and the number of ships docked. Do you think this is smuggling?

It's more like smuggling if we decide which side to pursue.

Under such an objective environment, do you think there is no grass growing in the hearts of the people on Baling Island?

The Liyue merchants, who are well versed in human nature, immediately grasped the sentiments of the locals on Baling Island and offered a pound of rice per day to hire locals to replenish the multinational force.

Frankly speaking, the price is really bad. Is rice valuable?If you dare to pay workers this salary in Xumi, the relevant departments will talk to you the next day about the dialectical relationship between labor and law, with the boss sitting on the regret chair.

But here is Daowu, and a pound of white rice every day is a luxury that the locals cannot refuse.

When the Inazuma wife of Yaru Island ate all-you-can-eat white rice for the first time in their lives, they shed tears of excitement and even gathered around to sing and dance. Then when they got to the battlefield, even if they were only given a wooden gun, These people also dared to attack the shogunate army.

Iles knew this very well. After he conquered Japan, he especially liked to recruit soldiers from Japan. These soldiers were white gloves with high cost performance. As long as they were given honor and the guarantee of a full stomach, they could conquer the colonies. The rebels killed all the people in the country. When Ilse ruled India as Zhu Youjian, those Japanese were the pioneers of the king.

It is not clear what the population of India was at that time. Anyway, when these animals left, the entire India, including the land in Pakistan and some Southeast Asian countries, had a population of less than one million scattered here and there.

Human nature aside, it is indeed a useful cleaning tool.

But later Iles became enlightened and stopped doing these things, but Benzi’s national character is indeed easy to go to extremes. When Iles went to Japan to support the Japanese Communist Party under the instructions of his teacher, he often had to pull the ears of the entire Japanese Communist Party organization. Prevent them from going astray, otherwise these grandsons will become terrorists.

The good thing is that their obedience to the strong is first-class. As long as you are more terrifying than their enemies, these people will definitely have the courage to face the US machine gun positions and play with meat bombs.

How do you think Iles led them to take over the military bases of the US military stationed in Japan?

Of course, it was not that Iles did nothing. At the beginning of the war, the U.S. fleet in Yokosuka suddenly suffered a collective explosion of ammunition depots. The effect was so good that most of the Yokosuka garrison was sent to the sky. When the United States panicked When Zhang mobilized a fleet from the local area to suppress it, Hirohito and his family were drying on tree branches for more than three days.

Why not a street light, you ask?

Feudal garbage only deserves tree rights!Don't ask this kind of thing again!

The current situation on Inazuma Hachijima Island is that capital saw an opportunity and drilled a hole in the feudal gap. The locals who smelled the fresh air followed and rushed forward, ready to fight for their right to survive.

Rather than starving to death, dying in battle after eating is obviously a better choice.

After all, capital is better than feudalism, and the moral level of Liyue merchants is also higher than that of their counterparts in Ansa. It is not surprising that such a big scene would occur.

Another reason is that Liyue was the first country to trade with Dao Wife. At that time, Dao Wife was still in a state of disintegration, and Liyue was already a unified centralized country, so Dao Wife culture was influenced by Liyue. Therefore, in Daozhu's cultural system, Liyue people are regarded as "celestial beings", which means divine people from the Kingdom of God.

Judging from the development conditions of the two countries at that time, this statement is correct.

This kind of worship and cultural influence continues to this day, so when Liyue merchants came forward and provided guarantees, the enthusiasm of the locals was completely understandable. It was better to choose Liyue than to comply with the national lockdown order.

Especially after Liyue merchants took their families away and promised to let them settle in Liyue, these people became even more determined to Liyue merchants and were willing to serve as qualified cannon fodder to fill every front of the enemy.

It is said that now they have captured a lot of weapons and equipment from the shogunate soldiers, and with the weapons introduced from Xumi, they might really be able to achieve the results of the East India Company's conquest of India.

"Nacida, do you think they will win?"

"It depends on whether Thor will take action."

Iers nodded. It was indeed true. When conventional weapons faced off against nuclear weapons, as long as the nuclear weapons were thrown out, it would be an unstoppable disaster. Moreover, it was impossible for the Liyue merchants to have the courage to fight Thor to the end.

What they want is just to open the door of Dao Wife. If that doesn't work, they can just go back to Tewat and run business. There is no need to risk their lives for Dao Wife. They did not choose war to liberate the people of Dao Wife. They want to What is needed is the market.

It has to be said that after the barbaric development of capital, this kind of picture will inevitably appear.

It's just that the actual control of the guns in the hands of capital now lies in the hands of Iles. As long as he wants, he can cut off the channels for multinational forces to obtain advanced weapons at any time, so they dare not be too messy and cannot cause too much trouble. .

"The latest information is that the main force of Tianling's army has moved to Ba Ling Island. Whether Lei Shen will take action depends on how the next battle goes. Well, I need to go and take a look."

"Is Ils going to have a fight with Balzebul?"

"No, I'm just here to draw the line."

Chapter 174: I have the advantage, don’t be a coward

(Fourth update! That’s it, hand over your monthly ticket╭(╯^╰)╮)

Tianling followed it, and Daozhu was a regular army, mainly executing the eye hunting order.

Their targets are all extraordinary beings, so their combat effectiveness is naturally not bad, but now, times have changed!

During this period, Iers indulged in some arms trade with Liyue, so some MAS36 rifles of good quality appeared on the battlefield of Baling Island, along with those that the Red Turban Army had not used for a long time. 12-pounder and 6-pounder front-loading smoothbore cannons, also known as Napoleon cannons, as well as many light Fran cannons and hand-cranked Gatlings.

Except for the exhibits placed in the museum, all these old-model weapons were sold and the inventory was cleared.

As a result, the multinational force immediately mobilized a firearms unit with more than [-] people, which was quite as impressive as the foreign gun corps back then.

Now that they have changed their name, Liyue merchants don't want to get too involved in this matter. After all, after completely kicking open the door of Dao Wife, they still have to do business and can't break up with each other, so this army is called Dao Wife Rebel Army.

The shogunate called them the Southwest Rebels.

Got it, this is Japan’s Southwest War!If everything goes well, the reverse movement can be seamlessly connected.

The history of your rice wife is the modern history of Japan written backwards.

When General Kujo led the Tianling regular army to the battlefield, this batch of arms was delivered to the Inazuma rebels.

Good news: We have more firepower.

The bad news: There’s no time to get used to the new gear.
