237 Chapter 237: Three Days
Facing Aslan's three-day theory, Meriya scoffed.
Although the royal family and the top ten lords are pressing each other with armies, according to the report, both sides are not prepared enough and are not in a hurry to start the fight.
Based on Meriya's understanding of the situation, this confrontation will continue for at least three months.
"Why don't we come to make a bet, if there is no war within three days with these 10,000 horses, how about all the 10,000 horses will be yours, and all the wars will be mine?" Aslan said with great interest.
Meriya narrowed her eyes slightly, and couldn't help thinking about Aslan's bet carefully.
"Okay, I'll bet with you." Meriya finally decided to bet, she had absolute confidence.
Aslan immediately showed a smug smile.
"Then you just wait and transport the weapons and equipment to them first. War horses are a rare item, so bring them back first."
Meriya nodded, and immediately took out a list, which is the weapons and equipment they can mobilize now.
Aslan just glanced at it, and said indifferently, "Melo City will make up for the rest! It happens that a batch of weapons produced recently have no place to use."
Recently, the hydraulic workshop has been fully started, and several workshops will come out one after another. Presumably, hydraulic forging hammers, hydraulic machine tools, and hydraulic spinning wheels require much lower water flow speed. Saxony has suggested to Aslan to build several workshops in the industrial zone. A circulating water canal to accelerate the development of the textile industry.
Now the Melo army has completely changed their outfits, even the city defense army has all changed into ring-shoulders, and the retreated weapons are just equipped with all the reserve corps and construction corps.
As for such weapons and equipment specially made for the ten lords, they have already piled up a warehouse.
When Meriya heard what Aslan said, she subconsciously looked at Cruze. It was obvious that Cruze didn't tell her something.
"Don't look at Kreutzer, he doesn't know a lot of things, even if he knows, he won't understand, it's useless to tell you." Aslan rarely said something kindly.
Kreuzer gave Aslan a grateful look, but Aslan glanced at him with a look of disgust, not thinking about this 'strict wife' guy.
Now not only the major tribes, but even Meria has opened an office in Mellow City, but they dare not directly use the name Gorlan, but the Rocky Chamber of Commerce.
"I heard that you have recently produced a new kind of cloth called woolen cloth?" Meriya asked curiously after following Aslan.
Aslan nodded angrily, and snapped his fingers. Nomiri took out a woolen military coat for Aslan, which was exactly the style of the German army coat of World War II.
With Aslan's current height, paired with this gray woolen coat, he is full of masculinity.
Meriya's eyes lit up, and she subconsciously reached out to touch the material on the coat.
"Very comfortable fabric, feels very warm!" Meriya said lightly.
Aslan nodded.
"This is the latest military overcoat. It is mainly equipped for officers at all levels. How about it? It's handsome enough!" Aslan said, tugging at the collar very coquettishly.
Kruse said very unscrupulously: "It's so handsome, so handsome!"
Aslan laughed out loud, but he couldn't laugh out of Cruze's next sentence.
"What about mine?"
"Fuck off! You are the leader of the Gorland Army, how can you wear the uniform of our Merlot Army?" Aslan said angrily.
Meriya also didn't want to delve into this matter further, because winter was approaching, and their territory didn't have enough winter clothes to survive the winter, so they planned to come here to buy a large amount of cloth to go back.
If it was previous years, Meriya could only squeeze everyone together as much as possible, but this year is different. She knows that Merlot City has a new type of textile machine, and the production speed of cloth is dozens or even a hundred times that of other lords. Considering the winter, Merlot City absolutely does not need it.
At least from the fact that many people on the street have changed into winter clothes, it can be seen that there is no shortage of cloth in Merlot City, and the price of cloth has reached a price that the people can afford.
"I'm here this time to purchase at least ten thousand pieces of cloth in preparation for the coming winter." Meriya said again.
Aslan said angrily, "Why does it feel like you have ulterior motives every time you come here!"
Kruse nodded indifferently, which made Meriya a little embarrassed.
"Yes, anyway, we already have a lot of sweaters in reserve, and this winter shouldn't freeze to death." Aslan said confidently.
"Sweater? How about that thing? How effective is it to keep out the cold?" Meriya suddenly became interested.
Aslan pointed to the turtleneck sweater worn by a female soldier next to him.
"That's it, you'll know if you ask yourself."
It was naturally impossible for Meiriya, she just walked over and asked a few words, then let her eyes go.
After all, there is no such thing as cotton-padded clothes in this world, so there are only two kinds of clothing to keep out the cold in winter. One is the big coat made of precious fur and animal skin, which is affordable for nobles and rich people.
The other is a coat made of two layers of cloth for ordinary people with poultry feathers or reeds sandwiched between them.
A coat with feathers is okay, at least it is the predecessor of a down jacket, so it is needless to say the thermal effect, but the coat stuffed with reeds is not so good.
Fortunately, the Gorland plateau is originally in the cold winter zone, and the Gorland people have long adapted to the harsh winter, especially adult men, who are much more resistant to the cold winter, but children and women are not good, and the cloth is prepared for the winter. Children and women prepare.
"How do you sell the sweater?" Meriya asked eagerly.
Aslan spread his hands and said helplessly, "I don't know. Except for one piece issued by the army, the others are priced and sold by the city hall. As long as the public has a cloth ticket, they can buy it at a discounted price. As for what you want to buy?" The price is different, you need to discuss with the city hall yourself.”
Meiriya nodded, and instantly understood what Aslan meant, and couldn't help but envy Aslan, the lord, who took it too easy, and was completely a hands-off shopkeeper.
After inspecting his territory, Aslan had just returned to the City Lord's Mansion when he saw Lancelot waiting for a long time.
Seeing Lancelot, Aslan's eyes froze.
"It's finally coming."
"What happened, you need to come here in person." Aslan asked lightly.
Nomiri was very cooperative and poured a cup of black tea for Aslan and Lancelot.
"The army led by Alonso has joined forces with the X army. If there is no accident, they will attack the city in three days." Lancelot drank the black tea in his cup and said solemnly.
Aslan's fingers tapped slowly and dully on the table.
Nomiri stood quietly behind Aslan, her mind was full of thoughts about the night.
"What's the situation in Billy City now?" Aslan asked.
"The whole army is ready for war!"
