Magic Industry Empire - 1256. Chapter 1256
General Dardaniel stood on a rock protruding from the top of the mountain, holding a telescope, and looking at the camp of the Lampari Kingdom at the foot of the mountain with a grim expression.
The army of the Lampari Kingdom has been stationed at the foot of the mountain for two days, but there has been no movement, which is really strange.
But General Dardaniel did not dare to take it lightly. After all, he is now leading the army to guard, but it is the most important gateway to the northern provinces of the original Candela Empire. Once it is lost, the Maro Empire will completely control the area in the north of the Candela Empire. Expose to the army of the Lampari Kingdom.
Based on the current comparison of the strengths of the two armies, if you can’t block the Lampari Kingdom’s army at such an easy-to-defend and difficult-to-attack pass and let them flood into the northern plains of the Candela Empire, it means that the Maro Empire has struggled to control it before. The site was completely lost.
But… can you hold it?
General Dardaniel looked up to the sky and smiled bitterly.
Compared with the Maro Empire’s military combat magic airship, it can be said that the military airships have won a lot in all aspects, so that when the two armies are facing each other, the Lampari Kingdom always holds the air supremacy. The Maro Empire Aspects can only be controlled everywhere.
In order to regain the disadvantages of air supremacy, it is said that the empire has begun to discuss restarting the magician legion system, bringing the powerful magicians accumulated over the years in the empire back to the battlefield and relying on them to deal with the magic airship squadron of the Lampari Kingdom.
On the surface, this proposal is not unreasonable.
Although the power of the magic airship is large, it is not as flexible as it is due to its large size.
If you use a powerful magician to deal with it, relying on the in-depth research and understanding of the magic space by the current magicians, it will not be like when you first encountered the magic airship of the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, because the simplest magic element space lock is nothing. Without the strength to fight back, then there is hope to contend with it.
But in fact, the feasibility of this proposal is extremely low.
First of all, due to the limitation of the “Mainland Magicians Peace Pact”, few magicians of the Maro Empire would be willing to risk violating the treaty and rejoin the Maro Empire army to fight for it, because it is very likely to make them Lose all future skills assessment opportunities, and then lose all opportunities to work in other chambers of commerce, research institutes and other places.
It was indeed the duty of the magicians of the Maro Empire to work for their own country, but no one was willing to do it because they lost their future.
Secondly, even if the magicians are willing, the Marlow Empire may not be willing.
Re-recruiting magicians into the army and joining the war with the Lampari Kingdom is a clear violation of the “Continental Magicians Peace Pact”. The Malo Empire is bound to be condemned by all countries on the Sainz continent.
This is only more unfavorable to the current situation of the Maro Empire.
When it is not a last resort, the Maro Empire is absolutely unwilling to adopt this approach with endless troubles.
Besides, even if you really do this, you can only regain part of the air supremacy, but it is difficult to completely suppress the magic airship group of the Lampari Kingdom army.
As for wanting to gain an advantage and defeat the Kingdom of Lampari, it is basically impossible.
Otherwise, even if the Maro Empire is condemned by other countries, it will definitely insist on doing so.
The Candela Empire has been killed, and if the Lampari Kingdom is completely defeated, the Malo Empire will be the most powerful country on the Sainz Continent. There is no one.
At that time, it is not a matter of this convention or that convention.
But it was precisely because of lack of this confidence that the Maro Empire couldn’t make this determination.
In the distant sky, several black spots flew quickly.
General Dardaniel didn’t need to look closely at all, and knew that it was supposed to be the cargo magic airship of the Lampari Kingdom that had transported another batch of logistical materials.
In these two days, he saw a similar situation four times in these two days alone, which shows how frequently the Lampari Kingdom transported materials.
But after seeing this situation here, General Dardaniel’s doubts deepened.
Since the Lampari Kingdom is willing to be so extravagant to use the cargo magic airship to quickly transport logistics materials, it proves that their attack should be very strong.
But they waited at the foot of the mountain for two full days and nothing happened. What was going on?
The situation on the battlefield is changing rapidly, naturally no matter what you do, you should race against time.
Any bit of time is precious, but the army of the Lampari Kingdom wasted two days here, which is simply a major mistake in decision-making.
Unless… they are brewing some conspiracy.
Thinking of this, General Dardaniel put down his binoculars anxiously, grabbed a huge magic call box from the guards beside him, and connected to a communication.
“Hey, Hanniche, how is your place?”
“Nothing.” A calm and steady voice sounded from the magic call box. “What? You have a situation there?”
“If something happens, it’s better!” General Dardaniel snorted. “These damned Lampari people have been stuck at the foot of the mountain for more than two days, but they don’t do anything. What are they going to do?”
“Maybe they are just to stop you.”
Hanniche on the magic call box, like General Dardaniel, was the commander of a certain garrison of the Imperial Army of the Maro Empire. They are now commanding a corps, each guarding two places that originally belonged to the Candela Empire.
Because the two have a good relationship in private and they are not far apart from each other, Dardaniel often communicates with Hannicher.
“Why are you blocking me? The empire hasn’t prepared for a counterattack, unless they want to counterattack us and we are about the same.” General Dardaniel murmured. “But looking at them now, they don’t look like it.”
“Obviously, the New Flying Chamber of Commerce wants to cooperate with the guys in the Candela Empire to toss things to the west and south. The Lampari Kingdom is cooperating with their actions.” Hannicher’s tone was still indifferent.
“I really don’t know what the New Flying Chamber of Commerce is doing. If they really want to divide the Candela Empire from the empire’s mouth, they can send the guards out and grab them openly. Is there so much to toss about? It’s horribly troublesome.” General Dardaniel’s tone was full of disdain. “It is said that Xu Yi, the president of the New Flying Business Association, is the wisest person. I think he is completely confused now.”
“If you don’t understand anything, then shut up and watch.” Hannicher’s tone finally changed a little, but he reprimanded General Dardaniel unceremoniously. “The things that a person like President Xu considers must have his reason, but it’s not obvious now.”
General Dardaniel sighed helplessly: “Well, you guy is a loyal supporter of Xu Yi, I really shouldn’t talk to you about this topic. Speaking of…Hannicher, if you weren’t our Marlowe I’m afraid the people of the empire would have just invested in the New Flying Merchants Association long ago, right?”
“If you know enough about President Xu, you will definitely admire him as much as I do.” Hannicher’s tone was very solemn. “However, this does not mean that I will choose to join the New Flying Merchants Association. And now is not the time to discuss these issues with you. The Empire has asked us to guard these two places in order to stabilize the northern area that originally belonged to the Candela Empire, and wait until the Empire. After digesting this area well, I believe there will be further actions. As for now, let the Lampari Kingdom and the New Flying Chamber of Commerce toss in the south.”
“Of course I understand. It’s really uncomfortable to be stuck on the mountain like this and unable to go out.” General Dardaniel complained.
“If you think you can win, then I don’t object to you taking someone to fight.” Hannicher said coldly.
“I’m not crazy yet.” General Dardaniel murmured and hung up the communication decisively.
The communication with Hannicher didn’t have any real meaning, it was just for General Dardaniel to relieve the irritability in his heart.
He often does this kind of thing, and Hannicher has long been used to it, so in fact neither of the two parties talked much about it in the communication, which can only be regarded as nonsense.
Seeing General Dardaniel put down the magic call box, a guard came over and handed him a form.
“General, this is the latest combat readiness report that has just been compiled.”
General Dardaniel frowned, finally sighed and took the form.
Although he was mentally prepared for a long time, General Dardaniel still felt a dull pain in his head after seeing the situation clearly on the form.
Compared with yesterday’s statistics, the Legion’s combat readiness situation has really become worse.
The table clearly shows that just yesterday, two magic artillery pieces failed. One of them had a direct failure of the firing array, and the other had a crack in the barrel and could not be fired at all.
At the same time, in the reserve of magic shells, after a day’s time, thirteen new ones were completely ineffective.
In addition, the 37 magic burst guns had various malfunctions, a magic tank track fell off, and even the eggs in the warehouse disappeared for no reason. More than a hundred…
The accumulation of all kinds of bad conditions made General Dardaniel upset and irritated, and couldn’t help kicking a tree next to him.
“Damn, are all those guys from the Logistics Department eating shit!”
Small problems such as the loss of more than a hundred eggs can be ignored directly, but the various new armament failures that occur every day, but General Dardaniel can’t bear it.
The military magic machinery armament of his army is at a disadvantage compared to the Lampari Kingdom. Now there are so many non-combat losses every day. If this continues, there is no need for the Lampari Kingdom to fight over. Can’t hold on anymore.
Thinking of this, he couldn’t help but spit out the guys from the Marlow Empire Military Logistics Department in his heart.
Except for the five imperial imperial guards directly under the imperial family, the Logistics Department will always be short and deducted when equipping the guards like him.
Now the various military magic machines equipped by the soldiers under his hand are obviously not enough in quantity, and there are also various problems in quality.
But he also knows that sometimes he can’t blame the Logistics Department.
