Chapter 585 One of Them (I) (A Grand Resurrection!)
(Apologies for the slow update, QWQ.)
(Why have I been updating unstably recently... It's because your author is currently unemployed and has gone out to look for a job. But since I've saved a little money from writing novels, I can choose a nice big city to settle down temporarily.)
(I went to Suzhou, the Hanshan Temple outside Gusu City, the midnight bell rings to the passenger ship... The Suzhou, Taihu Lake is very large, with dense water networks... But the crisscrossing water networks throughout Gusu City no longer have civilian ships from thousands of years ago, and subways and vehicles are more efficient means of transportation.)
(I spent four days on the train this week, and the sleeper berths sometimes shook so hard that people were very tired. And the old sleeper berths don't even have chargers! I even ran out of power in my power bank, so I used my laptop to charge my phone. Today I just found a place to stay in the new city. )
(Actually, I also thought about updating on the road, but the mountains are high and the road is long, so I just enjoy the scenery.)
(Two thousand two hundred kilometers, starting from Guangxi and passing through Suzhou and Hangzhou to Xi'an.)
(Your author is now in Xi'an, that is, Chang'an, temporarily living!)
(The ancient capital of thirteen dynasties, the price is cheaper than I expected, by the way, I experience the local customs and customs of Hanzhong, and by the way, I go to interview for a job...)
(Long-term peace and prosperity.)
(I have arrived safely, so I will resume normal updates later, UwU.)
Bell Tower~OvO
The construction of the front-line trade center has been put on the agenda after the signing of the agreement. A large number of fast transport ships of Standard Mining will deliver the corresponding resources to the ground, and an aviation port spewing light white steam will rise from the ground.
The large floating ships of the Ring Island Alliance can be repaired and unloaded in the dock port to maintain the daily activities of this front-line mining base and trade center.
The dangerous areas in the eyes of the ground lords are just a matter of assigning a few more airships of different specifications to the cloud lords.
In the low-tech era, it is difficult to produce effective anti-aircraft firepower, and there is no way to knock down these hard bumps flying in the sky.
The light cavalry is still fighting in this dark forest where a lot of shrubs grow due to insufficient light. The cavalrymen who come to take the wind fight beside every coordinate that can produce rare resources. A resource location will even change hands more than six times in a day.
The troops of the Holy See have learned to be smart. They no longer organize their own troops to act on a large scale, but use scattered battalion and company-level troops to block the troops of the ground lords to ensure that the key areas are under their control.
They left more corpses than the lords during this period, but the troops on the front line did not decrease but increased. The special priests of the Holy See are ready to turn the front line into a meat grinder.
With an extremely backward tactic.
And resources as abundant as the ocean.
A little setback is not enough to change the operating logic of this rotten machine. Machines are never as sensitive as individuals. As long as there are no major problems with the plan, the course will not be adjusted.
Millions of trench workers depend on food and clothing, and turning requires re-examining the distribution of benefits.
As long as the result of 1+1 equals 2 in the end, it will be fine.
On the other side, there are not so many resources.
In another area with the same red and white cross flag, in a small area facing the direction of the former western defense zone, the lords found a very strange scene... trenches appeared there.
Yes, trenches.
Not one, not ten, but a super-long trench stretching for ten kilometers.
The continuous trench line compressed the range of the mobile light cavalry, forcing them to be unable to penetrate the defense line and continue to advance.
Troublesome and disgusting.
A small number of mobile light cavalry had no way to deal with the riflemen hiding in the trenches. They set up sharpened dark horse repellents, and the ground was covered with caltrops that hindered the cavalry's actions, ready to support the light cavalry reserves in each trench at any time.
Seeing the trenches blocking the mobile pass, the mobile light cavalry just wanted to take a detour.
The lords of the coalition knew that it was the idea of the Knights to use trench defense lines to cut off the cavalry's mobility. They were quite familiar with the combat form of trenches... and digging trenches in large quantities was also the most effective way to block or even prevent the expansion of the coalition.
If it were not for the scarcity of resources, the lords of the Knights who were reorganized by the Vanguard Army would even want to build bastions again and use crossfire to defend the pass.
The Knights, whose technology is improving, can still take out a lot of 25-pound fortress guns for defense, and they still have 12-pound guns to deal with...
Everyone selectively ignored the destructive fire net that fell from the sky that day and the fixed-point coverage bombing encountered by the mixed brigade of combat repairs.
That was an exception.
That must be an exception.
If all actions must take exceptions into account, they can just retreat back to their hometown and wait for death, because the bombing will definitely come, then will they give up the plan?
No, neither the coalition nor the Church will change their combat plans.
So the intensity of the war began to increase further.
Was it that the advancement of technology overwhelmed the overabundance of resources, or that the influx of resources overwhelmed the technological advantage like a flood?
The Cloud Lords did not want to intervene deeply. They just wanted to take the resources they already had and make sure that the war on the ground was controlled to an acceptable level.
They were still promoting industrial upgrading according to their own plans, and the abundant resources on the ground further accelerated the degree of mechanization in the territory.
All production and R&D plans are led by a unified and efficient central government.
Ji Lin has sufficient funds to "actively retire" the outdated first-generation machine tools and equipment... and then send some of them to the museum of the School of Engineering to provide a little buff to the students in the School of Engineering.
Let them feel that "Ah, this school seems to have a lot of history, and there are so many mechanical devices. '
And.
'You should study hard, these mechanical devices are designed by your predecessors...'
And so on.
In fact, the School of Engineering has only been established for less than six years, and has only trained four batches of technical talents.
Some of them became administrative officials, implementing the decrees of the territory to every corner; some of them became technical bureaucrats, using their knowledge to improve production efficiency in various industries in order to efficiently complete the tasks of their superiors in the administrative system;
Some of them became engineers, forging a steel foundation for rapid industrialization; some of them became researchers, deeply combining runes and magic technology with mechanical devices in the laboratory.
Today's territory is still moving forward.
