Lord: I Am in a World of Pain, Raising a Girl

Chapter 694 Magic Gunpowder

"Sir, I miss you so much."

Asheina rushed towards him with a cry, almost throwing Field to the ground, the wolf's tail wagging like a helicopter.

"I miss you all too." Field chuckled, "Be more serious, this is a public place. I'll take care of you when I get back."

Rosalia on the side could hardly hide the murderous intent in her eyes.

"Ahem, there's nothing wrong with the territory."

"Sir, we have encountered no difficulties in the development of the territory. Some new private shops have opened in the commercial street, and I have compiled the information." Kuroba said seriously.

"That's good."

Field breathed a sigh of relief. His team was reliable and the city could function normally even when he was away.

"By the way, sir, Grand Duke Gemstone has written to us, as well as Count Swaro's letter."

Taking out two letters, Asheina handed them into Field's hands.

Swaro's letter was a letter of war. He praised his family's bravery, humiliated himself, and then declared war on himself.

As for the letter from Archduke Gem, it was to persuade him to join his alliance and defeat the empire together.

"Oh, if you want to fight, then fight."

Field pumped his fist excitedly: "I'm afraid you don't dare to come, just give me some training."

"Sir, should we help Grand Duke Gem? Or should we help the Queen?" Ashina couldn't help but come forward, "If we take the wrong position, it will be very dangerous."

"You're right, don't worry, I have a strategy." Field patted her head to reassure her.

"Little Sun, Rosalia, you and Silver Dragon go to rest. You have worked hard these days."

After letting everyone go to rest, Field briefly dealt with the backlog of government affairs and went back to comfort the restless Asheina and Little Angel.

Possibly due to the lord gain brought by the Silver Dragon, Field almost broke up the two of them.

Early the next morning, Field sat on the bed, enjoying honey bread, and began to prepare a new development plan.

Come up with the first phase of the "Morning Veil Leader" development plan.

"Each territory must leave enough land for cultivation. From now on, the Chenmu Territory will focus on agriculture, fishery, shipbuilding and trade."

Field decided to regain the gray mist land in the Morning Curtain Territory as soon as possible and strive to plant potatoes on a large area in March. Only after the potato seeds discovered on the Abyss proved to be non-toxic and harmless did Field dare to sow them with confidence.

"We must purchase or build qualified merchant ships as soon as possible. The territory is in great need of trade."

"Wait a minute, we need to reorganize the army. There must be a clear division of labor between extraordinary forces and ordinary troops. They must not be mixed together like the imperial army."

"It's just, how should ordinary armies be arranged?"

Field rubbed his chin. Although this world relied on the Chosen Ones, the ordinary army could not be replaced. Because there are too few chosen ones, the nobles need massive logistics and cannon fodder.

Similarly, if the number of ordinary soldiers increases, the weaker Chosen Ones can also be killed.

For example, Night Owl was nearly killed by a pile of trash fish several times.

When he was in Canghai Province, he relied on cannon fodder and rotting corpses, consuming a huge amount of the fifth-level divine power.

"However, for those of us who lead the night, life is very precious."

Field didn't want the people who possessed technology and loved him to be used as cannon fodder.

"Ordinary soldiers will be transformed into artillery, reserve and logistics troops, and they will be allowed to serve as musketeers in the future."

Field just started writing.

"Boom!" An earth-shattering explosion suddenly occurred outside the city.

"What the hell?"

Field was startled and ran out quickly. He heard noises around him and many people ran out.

At least the little maids in the castle all poked their heads in and whispered nervously.

“Oh my God, was that sound like thunder?”

"Could it be a corrupt creature? The goddess bless you."

"Ashina, let's go see what happened." Field hurriedly put on his clothes.

"It seems to be the sound coming from the industrial area. I hope it won't cause a fire." Ashina muttered, unable to open her eyes. However, the matter was so important that she still managed to get up and work.

Although there is a magician on duty there, the proud magician cannot be praised for his work efficiency. They always like to secretly work on their own business, such as studying magic or taking a nap. After all, workers without magical power would not dare to say anything to them if they saw it.

Riding a fast horse to the industrial area, Field saw billowing smoke and dust rising from the courtyard under construction.

"Isn't that a gunpowder factory? How could it explode while it's still under construction?" Field was so angry that his stomach ached.

He just built a high wall and it exploded.

"Sniff, sniff~ Sir, it's the smell of a little fox." Asuna reminded.

"ah?"

After hearing this, Field's anger disappeared. I rushed into the factory yard and saw a big pit in the middle of the yard, and there was even smoke.

In the distance, a "gray radish" was stuck in the ground. It was the little fox. It was still smoking, and it was obviously blown away.

Ashina also hurried over and helped her pull it out of the ground.

"What are you doing? It's so early in the morning."

With her eyes slightly narrowed, Asheina put her hands on her hips, and the wolf demi-human Wea was so frightened that the little fox seemed even smaller and could only tremble.

"Sir!" Seeing Field next to Ashina, the little fox rushed over as if he had seen a savior.

Field was also shocked: "How much gunpowder did you pack to explode like this?"

"No, sir, I have improved the formula."

The little fox quickly took out the paper: "Based on your original ratio, I added the powder of the fire demon core to make magic gunpowder. Just adding a little bit makes it more powerful."

On the paper, I even tried salamander teeth, blood bull beast fur, bone mineral powder, etc.

Suddenly, she tried out a new formula.

"So awesome."

Field was stunned. He had just prepared the gunpowder not long ago. At first, he just casually asked her to try adding other ingredients.

Unexpectedly, more powerful magic gunpowder would be introduced so soon.

"By the way, sir. The cannon for testing has been produced and can be inspected at any time."

"Oooh? That's great."

Field's eyes shone and he waved his hand: "I'm worried that it's hard to determine the number of people in the artillery team. Let's go fire the cannon quickly and bring your newly developed gunpowder."

"good!"

The little fox danced happily. She was also curious about the artillery for a long time.

"Hurry up and call everyone to witness this historic moment."

Soon, Field called all the chosen ones from the territory, including Grandma Villanse, the former Imperial Army chosen one who was taking a break from work.

Unfortunately, Yinlong was still in a coma and could not attend.

The artillery was transported to the northern border wall of the Night Territory, which was the entrance to the viscounty territory. The number of corpses outside the city was terrifying.

The most indispensable thing is targets.

The artillery was pulled by two Warcraft horses and escorted by twelve vindictive knights.
