Chapter 320 318: The First Simulated War (Subscription Request)
With Luo Yi's safe return, many things no longer needed to be hidden from the Siren King.

With Loy's permission, Walter revealed everything to the Siren King, including his identity, status, and sphere of influence.

It’s a simple truth: a capable partner is always more reassuring than someone who has nothing.

Moreover, after Loyi's suggestion, Walter also lowered his attitude, at least giving the Siren King a very clear feeling that the transaction between the two parties was equal.

Everyone deserves respect and seeks this feeling of being respected.

Therefore, in the most recent meeting, Walter was able to sit down and talk with the Siren King, and talk about the different situations on the seabed and on land.

The atmosphere is no longer as tense as before!
It was also in this context that Walter explained the value of the silver amber stone and agreed on the distribution method.

The Siren King did not hesitate at all and immediately mobilized all the people in his tribe to begin a carpet search.

Then, they discovered this amber mine!

Limited by the almost non-existent prospecting technology, it is obviously impossible to determine the size and reserves of the mineral vein by relying on the Siren Tribe.

But fortunately, this is an open-pit mine, and no mining technology is required, just swinging a chisel and knocking it.

With this foundation, there will be almost no problem in exchanging other materials.

After several rounds of communication and exchanges, the two sides decided on the first batch of supplies and determined the time of handover.

On the Flower Territory side, Butler Hoover personally dispatched the supplies, which were then transported to a specific sea area by Walter's magic warship and dropped directly.

Then, sail to the unnamed island and directly move the supplies prepared by the Siren King onto the boat and transport them away!
In this way, there is almost no communication between the two parties during the transaction, and there are no loopholes.

Of course, this is based on a certain level of trust and there must be sufficient communication in the early stages.

It is worth mentioning that for this first transaction, Roy was still unsure and asked Ms. Palacios to take charge.

Until November 313, 11 of the New God Calendar, the first underwater trade was successfully completed, and the Siren Tribe obtained what they wanted, especially various weapons and magic potions.

As for Luo Yi, the goods were transported to the Siren Port, and the rest were directly distributed to different sea merchants, making it absolutely impossible to trace them.

Only the silver amber stone was sent to the Lion Manor and refined by Lilia herself.

A whole box of amber stones, all of which were purified and ground into qualified amber stone powder.

Roy then spread into the empire's magical world through Douglas Hill's channels.

It's not foolproof, but it has changed hands several times and I can't find it here.

And this order, just this order, after deducting costs, manpower, losses, etc., the net profit was as high as twelve thousand gold tyres.

Even Luo Yi was surprised by this profit!
After all, this is only the first transaction, and both parties have the intention to test the waters. The fact that there is still such a profit really shows the huge profits of underwater trade.

Having opened up a new source of income and market, Luo Yi was naturally very happy.

What made him even happier was that the training bullet that he asked Christina to help research was also a finished product.

There is no rubber in this world, but there are naturally many substances similar to rubber.

However, when a bullet is fired, it will cause high temperature and expansion, so you have to choose the corresponding high temperature resistant material to ensure that the bullet does not melt.

Christina tested more than thirty kinds of materials, selected five of them, compared and adjusted them repeatedly, and finally met all of Roy's requirements.

The bullet has moderate hardness, is resistant to high temperatures, and is elastic. It hurts quite a bit when it hits the body, but it is never fatal.

If it were an ordinary person, he would probably not be able to bear it. Although it would not kill him, he would definitely be covered in bruises, and it would take a long time to recover.

However, it is different for knights, especially those who have practiced fighting spirit and have recovery abilities that are unmatched by ordinary people.

If red and blue pigments are injected into the bullet, red and blue marks can be directly left on the body, making it easier to assess the damage.

The only drawback is that it is relatively troublesome to manufacture, and requires manual polishing, injection, installation, inspection, and packaging...

However, this problem was solved after Maruna hired more than a hundred female workers!
After Grand Knight Alfonso Zeke tried out the training bullet, he immediately submitted a plan.

how to say?

From Luo Yi's point of view, it is still a little lacking after all, mainly because the vision is not high enough, and it is still limited to the struggle between earls and marquis, or special operations, and the scene is too small.

It did not rise to the level of a war between countries or involving tens of thousands of people!
This is the limitation of my own knowledge and needs to be broken bit by bit.

What really caught Luo Yi's attention was the beginning of the entire plan, the first simulation of the war plan.

Knight Heavy Machine Gun Squad VS Lion Knights.

After all, some knights still have resistance in their hearts. Even if this heavy machine gun looks powerful, they will always have illusions unless the bullets hit them!
Alfonso knew them too well, so this battle was a simulation of a war between the strongest form of the Knights Templar and this new type of magical weapon.

The magic cannon is indeed powerful, but it is quite troublesome to move, calibrate, and fire.

The wasted time is there and there is no way to speed it up.

As the knights charged, their horses sped up very quickly, and it was almost impossible for the two sides to engage in a head-on confrontation.

Either the artillery took advantage of the situation and blew up the Knights, or the Knights were taken away in one wave before the artillery could establish a position.

This is a fifty-fifty situation, and we cannot really say that the cavalry is definitely falling behind.

Back then, the Habsburg Empire won the battle by relying on three-stage shooting, which formed another form of hail of bullets and metal storm, and only then did it annihilate that top knight order.

Luo Yi naturally agreed with this idea, and even thought of it more extreme. On one side, the Knight Heavy Machine Gun Squad, belonged to the Red Side. Luo Yi only selected 30 people, including one third-level extraordinary person, the female Tyrannosaurus Tanya Anderson.

They will be equipped with heavy machine guns and pistols, and plenty of bullets!

The other side, the Order of the Lion, belongs to the blue side, including all the knights who have not been introduced to meditation, and all the knights' squires have joined.

Leading the way were three Power Knights, Cody Isaac, Jal Turner and Bill Dean.

This strength is definitely impressive.

The terrain chosen was the flat grassland, which was the most suitable battlefield for knights' charge.

This kind of exercise is naturally not suitable for being carried out in a military camp. There are too many people and it cannot be carried out!

So, they chose a grassland, spent half a day preparing, and set up their formation.

Then, the horn sounded and the charge began!
The Knights' charge was still as shocking as ever, and the rumbling sound of their hooves seemed to flatten the earth.

People standing on the grass can even feel their bodies shaking with the earth.

The three extraordinary people were at the front, their fighting spirit lights connected into one, and the knight halos expanded, covering all the knights.

The front row was filled with upright dragon spears, like a thorny bush.

You have to admit that such a knight's charge is terrifying and can almost crush all enemies.

On the other hand, the female Tyrannosaurus Tanya chose to dig trenches and advance step by step.

A team of thirty people set up a Maxim heavy machine gun in the trench, and when the Knights charged close to 400 meters, they pulled the trigger directly.

Although the "da da da" sound of gunfire was drowned out by the sound of horse hooves, the flames spewing from the muzzles of the guns were not fake.

The bullets came like a violent storm, sweeping across the area.

And their target was not people, but war horses!

It is worth mentioning that because it is a training bullet, it does not have the lethality of a real bullet.

Therefore, knights were not allowed to wear armor, and war horses did not need to be covered with vests.

In a real battlefield, unless you have special magic armor, you can't stop the shooting of bullets, so this is the fairest thing.

As for pain, humans may be able to suppress it, but war horses cannot!
Suddenly, balls of red mist exploded from the charging horses, and the severe pain stimulated their nerves.

Some horses stumbled and rolled to the ground, while others raised their front hooves high and neighed non-stop...

The original charging formation was immediately disrupted, but the knights behind were still charging.

So, there was a period of chaos.

The female Tyrannosaurus Tanya originally wanted to wait for the enemy to tire themselves out, fight while retreating, use the trenches to reduce the speed of her horses to the minimum, and then launch a charge.

But the current situation was in her favor. She roared, grabbed two Maxim guns, and rushed out.

Behind him, thirty people quickly divided into ten small teams of three people each, and also launched a charge.

It is hard to imagine how great the impact of the flying bullets was. The metal storm created by them directly disrupted the entire team of more than 400 knights.

They did not rush forward recklessly, but kept a distance of about a hundred meters, began to move to both sides, drew two arcs, and outflanked the enemy from the side!

The battlefield was chaotic, but it wasn't a big deal. However, Luo Yi and the others saw it clearly from outside.

It felt like thirty people surrounded more than four hundred people and didn't even give them a chance to engage in close combat.

Of course, the Lion Knights are not completely without the chance to resist.

Many knights simply abandoned their horses, raised their swords, and rushed forward like crazy.

They wanted to close the distance and start hand-to-hand combat!

It’s a pity that they are often the worst off. This training bullet does not hurt people, but it really hurts!

In fact, there are also materials that don’t hurt, but the reason why Luo Yi chose it is because pain is also necessary.

There is no need to mention the knight's endurance, but when seventeen or eighteen red bullets explode in his body, that kind of pain is not something he can endure just because he wants to!

The ones who really have some killing power are actually the three third-level transcendents.

After they were sure they could not win, they began a desperate charge, using their amazing jumping abilities to close the distance between them and then using their fighting spirit to injure the enemy.

Of course there is an effect, but Tanya is no pushover.

The squad gathered in an instant and concentrated their fire with heavy machine guns. Unless one had extraordinary combat skills like Loyi who was carrying the Shield of St. Mark, otherwise, one would be shot into a sieve!
It was a battle that lasted less than an hour.

There is no need to say much about the outcome. Many knights seemed very confused after the exercise.

Luo Yi didn't care about them, and there was no need to care!

Once they are through the period of confusion, they will definitely work ten times harder than before just to get started with meditation.

This simulated war fully demonstrated the power of the generation gap in weapons.
