686 Chapter 686: Line of Defense

Back and forth, Smith lost not only the accumulated materials, but also precious time.

At the magic council, after Smith reported the Cleveland Commonwealth matter, the entire magic council fell into silence.

The loss of the Magic City this time can be described as heavy, the loss of the Great Magister accounted for half of the Magic City, not to mention the elite mentor-level combat team.

Although there are many magisters in the magic capital, more than one-third are scientific research and technical personnel, and their combat effectiveness is worrying.

St. Peter the Grand Magister and the chairman of the Magic Council said: "We can't delay any longer, and immediately send troops to the Commonwealth of Cleveland, and the province of Melox will definitely not be silent again."

"yes!"

Compared to the capital of magic, which is eager to dispatch troops, Kyoto is in chaos.

The strong men sent by the capital of magic actually failed in the province of Willis, saying that they had nothing to do with the province of Melox, they would never believe it.

In the entire noble council, there was silence, and everyone began to think carefully.

Duke Durandal spoke first.

"We can no longer hesitate, and immediately send heavy troops to guard the border, so as not to be caught off guard by the Melox province."

The words of the Duke of Durandal were quickly echoed by the nobles of Kyoto. Patrick set an example by sending half of the Snow Fox Legion out, and he also cooperated with a team of 50,000 people to station in the province of Yashian.

Seeing that Patrick sent an army, other Kyoto nobles also sent troops. After all, the Asean Province is the front line against the Melox Province.

The Commonwealth of Cleveland built a system of fortifications on its northeastern frontier to prevent the invasion of the United Army on the border of Astra Province.

The anti-plum defense line is located in the fortifications set up in the eastern part of Yashian Province. It is made of reinforced concrete and is very strong. In addition to the new rifle army, there are nearly forty air cannons.

The air cannon technology was left over from the Royal Academy of Magic back then. A large amount of explosives were stuffed into the cannonballs, and it could also explode with impressive power.

The nobles of Kyoto, who obtained the wealth left over from the Royal Academy of Magic, naturally knew the importance of shangtong. They had cultivated thousands of shangtong, and the power of the entire kingdom was much stronger than that of the Royal Academy of Magic alone.

"Let me tell you a bad news. This year, the grain production in the kingdom has been severely reduced. It is not even one-third of what it was at the most, and it is not even half of what it was before. This year, the kingdom will face food shortages again." Ministry of Agriculture The minister, Duke Pisman, said with a solemn face.

As soon as they heard about the reduction in grain production, all the nobles at the meeting showed nervous expressions. The huge impact of the reduction in grain production caused by the drought is still vivid in the minds of the nobles.

"Isn't it a bumper harvest at the beginning of the year?" A certain nobleman asked. Obviously, his industry is mainly based on industry or manufacturing, but he is not clear about it.

Those aristocrats who mainly focus on agriculture were immediately embarrassed. Because of the high yield of Merlot seeds and the fact that the Tianping Chamber of Commerce did not reduce the price to buy them, many nobles would naturally not keep the grain in their hands and leave the grain that could be used for the autumn harvest. All are sold.

During that time, they made a lot of money, but in the blink of an eye, they bought rifles and ammunition with the money. The food they planted was taken away by the Merox Province, and the money they earned was transferred to the Maxim Chamber of Commerce. pocket.

"Contact the Maxim Chamber of Commerce immediately, purchase a large amount of food from them, and be ready to deal with the problem of food production reduction at any time." Patrick said, rubbing his temples.

As the Kyoto Council considers future countermeasures, Aslan has returned to Merlo City, throwing Krupp to Ibn, and at the same time transferred Ibn away from the Merlo Dam.

Build a life research institute at a secret base in Changfeng Plain.

When Krupp saw Iben, he was initially displeased with this little magician who had not yet reached the level of a magister, but when he got to know Iben in depth, he was immediately impressed by Iben, and the two quickly became friends. .

Among them, the theory of human evolution shocked Krupp the most. While making the human transformation go a step further, he assimilated the organs and bodies that did not belong to humans with the human body, allowing them to completely restore their human appearance.

This is a subject that Krupp has been researching for these years, and he did not expect that it has been overcome by the city of Merlot.

The death wizard organization, no, it should be called the Life Research Institute is now in full swing.

The United Army is mobilized on a large scale.

In the meeting room of Fort New Merlot, all the officers gathered together.

"Gao Wen, after you led the First Corps of the United Army to quickly detour to the anti-Mei defense line, Arturia led the second and third corps troops to suppress the situation, forcing the Cleveland Army to fight." Aslan pointed to the anti-Mei defense line on the big map Said.

"yes!"

"Kruse, you led the Fourth Corps and the Highland Corps from the Kande Reservoir into the Buyik Province, directly dividing the Buyik Province into two parts." Aslan continued.

There are five regions in the province of Buyick, but they are arranged side by side in a straight line, centered on the province of Melox, separating the north and south of the Cleveland Federation.

It has always been a battleground for the military strategists of the Commonwealth of Cleveland.

As long as an opening is opened in Buyik Province, whether it is going north or south, it is a breeze.

When Aslan and the Duke of Kane agreed to build the reservoir, the real purpose was to use the reservoir as a springboard to achieve the strategic goal of easily attacking the province of Buyik.

"Yes! Your lord!" Cruze knelt on one knee to accept the order.

This is what Meriya told him. No matter how good the relationship is in private, you must be polite in public. This is good for both Aslan and Kruse.

As for the high-ranking person who is like a brother in public, Aslan can play it, and Kruse can cooperate, but they can never take it seriously.

If it is really dead, it is equivalent to sending the handle to Aslan. Who can guarantee that Aslan will not lose his temper that day.

Accompanying you is like accompanying a tiger.

This sentence is applicable no matter in any world, Meriya has already concluded that Aslan will definitely become king in the future, and now it is just getting used to it in advance.

With Kruse taking the lead, many officers who thought they had made their fortunes with Aslan from the beginning could not help but look solemn.

The two armies advanced side by side, but when they entered the border, they began to hide their whereabouts instead.

The court also acted quickly, and began to clear out the secret agents who had been lurking in the territory, and blocked the news of the large-scale mobilization of troops by the United Army within the territory.

Located in the magic tower high on the Rocky Mountain, a huge magic tower is constantly screening important information and intelligence.

This positive magic wave signal tower has only one function, which is to screen and search sensitive communications, especially numbers dialed to overseas, and focus on all of them.
