Chapter 1104 Sky-High Price

Naifei greeted her politely—she had stayed in Mofengt College for two years, and as a genius who received special care, the deputy dean and the professors were all familiar with her, and this Kono Vice President Si even personally arranged a laboratory for her.

Roddy probably guessed the reason, and explained aloud at this time: "Nafei's study life depends on the care of Vice President Knoss, and I would like to express my gratitude-now her position is my personal secretary, responsible for recording And deal with some of my personal chores, so she will record the next meeting by her side, if Senator Knoss minds..."

"Never mind, don't mind!"

Konos put his posture very low, and he was not polite after sitting down. He said directly: "After learning about the war on the front line, the council thinks that the long-range weapons and vehicles equipped by the Karen Kingdom are very powerful. We talked about buying trucks before. But... those things are obviously no match for the weapons you use."

Yesterday bombarded the enemy's position, and today Knoss appeared directly in front of him. Rody was actually more curious about another question: "Oh? Is the decision-making of the parliament so fast now?"

"Ah...this..."

Knoss smiled awkwardly: "It is to modify some regulations, of course, it is also to improve the efficiency of the discussion."

"That's a good thing," Rody smiled, but then he said bluntly: "However, due to the complicated production process and scarce materials of these weapons, I'm afraid I can't sell all the models, but some are easy to produce. It should be sold to your country within a month to improve the level of national defense."

Konos reflected on what "defense level" meant, and then asked, "Then, what kind of weapons can you buy here, Prime Minister Roddy?"

"'Marmot' self-propelled artillery vehicle."

Luo Di had already made up his mind, and introduced: "I know you want to buy the 'Vulcan' heavy artillery with a range of two kilometers and each shell can reach the power of Pyroblast, but its output cannot keep up with the use of the army. However, the 'Groundhog' is much better in comparison. Although its power is not that great, the warhead is not a shell filled with spar, but a solid metal bullet, which can completely ignore the threat of the enemy's 'Forbidden Domain' , causing massive damage."

Hearing that it was not the heaviest artillery, Konos's smile restrained a lot, but after thinking about it, he knew that even if the mass production could keep up, he would not easily sell such a powerful weapon if he changed himself. Besides, Roddy said that it can be used in the "Field of Forbidden Demons". He couldn't help asking seriously: "Then how much is the price of this 'Groundhog' artillery vehicle?"

"Each 20,000 gold coins, including a barrel that can fire twenty rounds per minute,

And six driving spars. "

Luo Di said like a few treasures: "But the follow-up spar needs to be solved by you. I can give away 20 shells. If you buy shells alone, one will cost about 20 gold coins."

Konos was stunned for a long time after hearing this, and asked with trembling lips, "A cannonball... twenty gold coins? In other words, four hundred gold coins will be fired in one minute?"

With the purchasing power of Rahiman's gold coins, 400 gold coins are enough to easily equip a 20-man infantry squad, including helmets, weapons and leather armor, and even manage food for a month.

And at such a price, it will be reimbursed in a minute on the "Marmot" artillery car?

He was not surprised at the high price of 20,000 gold coins for the "Groundhog", because Knoss had made enough psychological expectations before coming - but the artillery vehicle itself is a one-off sale, and these shells are the real "big heads" "...

So when he heard such a quotation, he immediately shook his head: "Prime Minister Roddy, although we know that such a weapon is powerful enough, I think your quotation is too high! You know, if I buy four 'land dials' Rat cannons, plus 2,000 cannonballs, the cost is even enough to train a team of heavily armed heavy cavalry; even if it is to train mid-level mages, it is still enough to cost at least 20 or more.”

Naifei next to him listened to this, and because he didn't know what to write, he just sat there and calculated the price casually, and finally calculated an astronomical figure of 160,000 gold coins...

Even if the money is placed in the Karen Kingdom, even the nobles above the earl cannot directly collect the cash, and Rody just sold four artillery vehicles and some shells?

Nefer looked at Roddy, waiting for his explanation.

"That's right, Congressman Knoss. Whether it's the cavalry brigade or the middle-level mages you just mentioned, no matter whether they are powerful or not, they all use the fighting methods of this era. But I hope you... and the parliament I asked other members of the army to think about a question: Is my army able to do what it is now because of the bravery of my cavalry, or because of the superb skills of my mage troops?"

Konos was tongue-tied and didn't know how to answer for a moment.

"For a weapon, when its range and power reach a certain level, it can completely change the way of warfare. I hope you can try to understand this."

Roddy had a persuasive attitude, although his tone was calm, but Naifei could hear the aggressiveness. Representative Konos obviously couldn't accept such empty words, and his expression was a bit ugly: "I hope that the Prime Minister can speak through facts, not these empty and empty concepts... For war, the Rahimans are not Not a three-year-old."

"Of course, I can understand the doubts in the minds of congressmen. In this way--the main reason why I chose to talk to you about arms sales here today is because the view here is good enough."

Rody pointed to the side of the guide, and Congressman Knos squinted his eyes before realizing that there was an army moving towards the river bank. Because the distance was too far, he could only see about four phalanxes, but No idea how many people there are.

At a distance of two kilometers, seeing people is almost like watching ants. However, as a high-level mage, he naturally has a way to observe. After raising his hand to cast a spell, a mirror-like light curtain appeared in front of him, and the scenery magnified ten times was reflected on it.

"Is this... preparing to attack? The total number of you seems to be only 3,000?"

"Twenty-six hundred people, four groundhogs, and two Vulcans."

Of course Rody knew this number, he said it casually, and then pointed to the Lamu River farther away: "The enemy has already begun to choose to cross the river after yesterday's attack was repulsed, and now is a good opportunity."

Of course Knoss knew it was a good opportunity, but in other words, the enemy generals were not fools. Seeing the army swaggering over, they certainly wouldn't just passively wait to be beaten.

He adjusted the viewing angle and looked at Yudora's troops, but because of the thin layer of sand, he could only see the formation that the opponent had already formed to attack.

At a glance, there are at least four thousand people.
