Chapter 1469 Chapter 1470: Imperial Association Army

Corey said proudly: "There are 24 kl05 120mm plus howitzers and 46 75mm howitzers."

An artillery configuration of this scale, placed in the garrison artillery division, is enough to rank in the top three, and the artillery of the normal garrison division is only 2/3 of theirs.

The corner of Wintersey's mouth twitched. He knew that he would be treated differently, but he didn't expect such a big difference.

"I won't introduce the mortar thing." Corey said proudly: "The imperial army is getting bigger and bigger, and weapons must be equipped with the main unified army first. Our garrison can only pick up the leftovers of the unified army."

Corey said: "The KL07 155mm light field gun, the Melo A-type 75mm electromagnetic infantry gun and the Melo E-type 155mm howitzer are all heavy artillery equipped by the main artillery divisions of the United Army, and several of the ace artillery divisions are also equipped with Katyusha The rocket launcher and the 240mmk3 plus howitzer, the latter two have not really been put into use yet.”

Wintersey also asked very cooperatively: "Why isn't this heavy weapon of war put into the battlefield?"

"Adversaries who need this weapon rarely come along because they don't need it.""

Wintersey remained silent, already estimating the power of the 240mmk3 plus howitzer in his heart.

………………

The Principality of Valencia had already received news of such a large-scale military dispatch by the Melox Empire. They immediately withdrew the troops stationed outside the main city, and all the citizens outside the city hid in the fortress.

It is a pity that both the city and the fortress are limited, and a large number of serfs were left outside the city. Many serfs beat on the city gate desperately, hoping that the defenders would let them in. in front of the door.

In their eyes, serfs were not allowed to enter the city, and the city could no longer accommodate more people.

The serf Gus suddenly felt the ground tremble, and many serfs behind him couldn't help but gasp in amazement.

"A lot of steel monsters!"

Gus looked back subconsciously. The armored chariot of the United Army drove out from the border farmland quickly. The chariot was full of soldiers. They saw the panicked serfs outside the city wall. He didn't care about the movement of Fort Huon.

The Valencia army had already been terrified and did not dare to go out of the city to fight. They could only watch the enemy walk past their house.

The commander of Hun Fortress Hun Seth quickly appeared on the city wall, watching the torrent of steel passing through the battlefield, his scalp was numb.

"Could it be that the magic technology of the Melox Empire has developed to such an extent?"

As soon as Hunseth finished speaking, a few shells landed on the city shield.

Boom!

The explosion shocked the serfs outside the gate of the fortress and began to flee in all directions, followed by a massive stampede.

Because Gus was at the front, he became the back when he was running, but he was not trampled. He ran to the border in a panic.

"Don't move at all!" ""

After running for an unknown amount of time, someone suddenly yelled. Before Gus could react, he was pushed to the ground by two people. Seeing this scene, his "little friends" ran out.

"Run again and we'll shoot."

Bang bang bang!

Following three gunshots, more than a dozen serfs fell to the ground with their heads in their arms.

A few United Army soldiers walked over with a cold face and escorted the escaped serfs back one by one.

"All serfs!"

A soldier pulled Gus's collar away, saw the serf mark on the back of his neck, and reported to the officer.

"Let's go back to the concentration camp first!"

Atoria looked at the handsome serf in the prison camp, and subconsciously rubbed her temples.

"Why are there so many slaves?"

No one answered Arturia, only a half-bent middle-aged man trotted over, knelt down on the ground, and said in a low voice: "Most of the land in the Principality is occupied by nobles, and farmers can only sell themselves as slaves in the end. In the Duchy of Valencia, serfs accounted for 2/3 of the population.""

Attoria nodded.

Mordred asked curiously: "Where are those free people?"

They have captured tens of thousands of serfs since they dispatched their troops. You must know that they have only acted for less than an hour. Now there are a large number of serfs running around outside the fortresses of major cities. Under such circumstances, the enemy would not be massacred at will, not even serfs, so this scene of using shells to drive away serfs appeared.

While there was no massacre, shell fragments and stampedes also killed thousands.

The middle-aged man replied carefully: "Free folk are skilled workers."

Mordred mumbled unconsciously: "Oh, social animal!""

"Social animal?"

Attoria looked at Mordred suspiciously.

"My brother-in-law said that it refers to the employees who work obediently in the factory and are squeezed like animals; now it refers to the group that is engaged in the work that occupies most of the time, lacks autonomy, and has a weak economic foundation."

Yadong said subconsciously: "This is not like a slave."

Artoria and Mordred rolled their eyes at the same time.

Artoria said: "Place people well, resume agricultural production as soon as possible, organize young and strong people who are willing to join the army, and organize them for training."

This is what Artoria learned from the Appeasement Army. These serfs who have been oppressed by the nobles for a long time, as long as they live well for a few days and then undergo a wave of brainwashing, they will become a member of the Appeasement Army in all likelihood. Serfs Being oppressed by the nobles for a long time, many people have lost the ability to think. It is their greatest wish to have enough food in this life.

As long as they can eat well and live well, they will be happy to join the Imperial Association Army.

The Imperial Association Army belongs to the third- and fourth-line troops in the empire. Their combat effectiveness is not as good as that of the police force, but it is very practical to use them to suppress civilians in hostile countries. Kill two birds with one stone.

Gus was sent to a concentration camp in a daze, and the old people who had been there for more than a month immediately swarmed up, dragged these new companions to take a shower, and then took them to the cafeteria for a simple meal. Started to work.

The main work of the concentration camps was to build watchtowers and build new towns. The male serfs were responsible for the hard work, while the female serfs were engaged in simple weaving, washing and cooking.

Seeing the orderly development of the concentration camp, Gus was shocked. After dinner, he went to the dormitory and found that there was a bed to rest on and a quilt on the bed.

They used to live in big sheds, and they could only lean against each other for warmth in the cold winter.

Gus asked dubiously: "Old Cole, what's going on?"

He also ate meat today. He remembered that the last time he ate meat was when the youngest son of the lord was born 5 years ago.

At that time there was no war between the Outer Continent and the Central Plains.
