I became a witch, but I started the industrial revolution

The number of tank losses began to rise rapidly.

Just when the war between the two sides was becoming tense, a tremor began to be felt from the other side of the sand dune. Many Vatican soldiers felt a sinking feeling in their hearts and turned to look at the sand dune in disbelief.

Sure enough, another group of steel behemoths appeared before their eyes, accompanied by a large number of small vehicles, and began firing at them.

Seeing this scene, the soldiers who were loyal to the Holy See began to waver in their hearts, and many of them retreated involuntarily.

The general was furious when he saw this scene. He wielded his command knife and slashed at the retreating soldiers frantically: "Assholes! Damn it! Don't turn your back on the enemy! Attack!!!"

"The warriors of the Church must attack! This is a chance to show our devotion to the goddess! Even if we die, we must die on the way to the attack!"

Among the arriving tanks and ATVs, a group of special mechanical soldiers jumped off their ATVs and gathered together.

Their aircraft are painted brown, which is very close to the color of the earth. Besides a series of numbers, there is only a five-pointed star emblem on the surface.

One of them noticed at a glance the general who was dancing madly with a long sword in the distance. His gorgeous golden and white armor was extremely conspicuous.

He raised the rifle in his hand, half-knelt on the ground, and aimed through the huge scope above the gun.

"Oh!"

After a burst of fire, a dull gunshot was heard. The whole body of the machine shook, and the 12.7mm silver-plated bullet arrived in front of the general in the blink of an eye.

Before he could react, the magic shield was instantly broken and the bullet hit his body.

The Vatican soldier who was lifted into the air by the general and was about to be strangled to death felt the hand that was gripping his neck loosen, and the general was blown into pieces, splattering all over his body and face.

[Reporting to the commander, I have killed a senior officer, suspected to be a general. ]

The federal mecha soldier who caused all this stood up and whistled triumphantly, but before he could finish half of the whistle he was kicked away by a powerful force. The captain's cursing voice rang out in the team channel:

"Fuck! Are you a tiger? How are you going to prove to the military whether you are a real general after being beaten like that?"

"Yeah! WOC was careless!"

Chapter 127 Our Queen Said It!

Not only Media received the war report, but the Holy See also received it.

But compared to Medea's surprise, the Vatican was confused and incredulous.

A few hours? Thirty thousand people gone?

This is a proper B-class division of the Holy See, with a size of 15,000 people. Although not all of them are mechas, there are still around 3,000 of them. A-class division is only double that at 6,000.

After all, it is difficult to absorb magic power in the sub-continent and it is difficult to make the machine self-sustaining throughout the whole process. Having too many machines is useless and those that need to be broken will eventually break.

The rest were all serious mid- and high-level magician warriors, as well as support-type magic crystal cannons. Are they just gone?

The Vatican's aid to the Kingdom of Palia lasted for about a month, but only two armies and six divisions were transported. How could they fight after losing two divisions of nearly 30,000 soldiers at once?

The Demetria Church immediately proposed to convene a meeting of the Main Continental Alliance, and the Seris Federation envoys stranded on the mainland were finally able to meet with representatives from the seven countries of the alliance.

What's interesting is that the representative of the Vatican in Demetria is the former Pope Olgovich of the subcontinent. Obviously, the communication between the two sides will not appear so "corridor".

Olgovich was the first to attack the federal envoy, angrily accusing the federal government of causing great losses to the Holy See by declaring war without declaration, and demanded the release of prisoners of war and compensation for the attack.

As he spoke, he did not forget to make a list. The Federation's envoy took a glance at it and saw that the compensation demanded was enough for the Federation to equip twenty tank divisions. It was just short of handing over the entire Federation to the Vatican.

He couldn't help but sneer: "We have warned and advised many times before that the countries of the main continent have no right to interfere in the development of the subcontinent."

Olgovich angrily asked: "Who said that we should not interfere with the development of the subcontinent? Who agreed to this?"

The messenger said confidently: "Our Queen of the Federation said so! We don't need your consent."

"If you interfere in the affairs of the subcontinent without reason, we, as a country in the subcontinent, naturally have the right to intervene in your unreasonable behavior."

The representative of the Kingdom of Ixia could not help but sneer: "What a joke! Do we, the Seven Nations Alliance, need the consent of you native barbarians to do anything we want?"

As he spoke, violent magical fluctuations emanated from his body. The powerful aura caused a storm of elementals to sweep across the entire venue.

The Federation envoy felt the overwhelming pressure and could not help but take a few steps back. His eyelids twitched. Quasi-saints?! The background of these countries is really terrible.

The representative of the Surya Kingdom on the side waved his hand to calm the increasingly fierce elemental storm:

"Representative Saker, the purpose of our alliance when it was first established was to better communicate and cooperate with neighboring countries in trade. We should not stir up chaos in local areas. This is not sensible for us."

It is well known that a stable regime is the most basic requirement for doing business. No matter how backward the subcontinent is, it is still an important channel for various countries to obtain raw materials.

Now that the war has broken out, many shipping routes have been cut off and the prices of materials have begun to skyrocket, especially food and slaves, which has caused considerable losses to the Surya Kingdom.

Olgovich also had his own reasons for this: "We support the Kingdom of Palia precisely to prevent the war from expanding and to mediate between the three countries."

"As for the Seris Federation, if it weren't for the firearms they provided, the Three Kingdoms War might not have even started. They should be held responsible for this war. I suggest that the Alliance increase the tariffs on the Seris Federation's goods as a punishment."

The federal envoy did not respond to Olgovich's words, but reiterated: "We have tried to communicate with you from the beginning, but we have not been able to meet with you. We have submitted a letter of protest. Our actions are just and legal."

"If you still don't withdraw the troops that have entered the subcontinent, we cannot rule out the possibility that what happened before will happen again."

Olgovich stood up and pointed at the federal envoy: "You! Fight me if you want! Do you think you will be so lucky a second time to launch a sneak attack?"

“All I can say is, wait and see!”

"The Seris Federation is so arrogant. The elders from the Empire haven't spoken yet. Barbarians are barbarians. They are too arrogant." The representative of the Puelent Kingdom said in a sarcastic tone.

The representatives of the two empires waved their hands upon hearing this. They just came to watch the show and had no intention of getting involved for the time being. In fact, they would rather they fought each other.

Because as the source supplier of machine manufacturing, the more fierce the fight between kingdoms, the more they earn~

The representative of the Tsarist Empire, who had been silent, looked at the federal envoy curiously. He didn't quite understand why this ordinary person with low strength was so confident and dared to confront the Holy See?

However, when I think about the fact that the Federation behind them has completely destroyed two divisions of the Holy See, it seems nothing wrong that they are confident.

He suddenly became curious about this federation. What kind of weapons had caused the Holy See to suffer such a heavy loss? As neighbors of the Holy See, there had always been a lot of dirty stuff between them.

In fact, the Holy See also wants to figure this out, which is why they want to get the prisoners back. To be honest, until now they still don’t understand how the two divisions were lost.

There was no way. There were airships conducting reconnaissance at high altitudes. The scouts and the like were being watched by the airships all the time, and the all-terrain vehicles were tracking them quickly from behind. There was no possibility of escape at all.

The Vatican encountered the armored forces rather suddenly, and the battle became intense from the beginning. Naturally, no one had the opportunity to pass the news back to the rear under the artillery attack.

This meeting, or the questioning of the federation, ended in a bad mood, with neither side showing any intention of giving in.

However, the camps of both sides have become clearer. The Holy See has the support of two kingdoms, while the Seris Federation has the mediation of the Kingdom of Suria.

Although the two sides have not yet established formal diplomatic relations, such behavior is much closer than normal diplomatic relations between countries.

After returning to the hotel, the federal envoy immediately transmitted the content of the meeting via telegram, so that the federation in the rear could prepare to continue fighting.

Medea had told him at the beginning that even if he was tough, the federal government would be responsible for all issues.

The Federation rose to power by overthrowing the Vatican and the kingdom's nobles. There is no room for easing tensions between the two sides, not to mention that there is the Church of Holy Light behind them.

Let alone easing the situation, the Holy See is probably dreaming of destroying the Seris Federation now.

If the Holy See is not convinced by the loss it suffered this time, then it will attack them a few more times until the other side admits defeat.

Factories within the Federation are constantly manufacturing tank bodies and accessories, and then transporting them to assembly plants for final assembly.

At the very beginning, Mediah arranged various professional parts manufacturers for the production of tank parts. After the initial running-in, the workers' proficiency has been fully improved and can support high-speed manufacturing in three shifts.

Because of the greatly simplified process and the pulsating production method of the automobile industry, basically a light tank's manufacturing and assembly cycle is about 9500 working hours, and it can be fully rolled off the production line and driven to the train station to wait for transportation.

Chapter 128: Federal Democracy? It's Queen's Despotism!

After the meeting ended unpleasantly, the representatives of the Surya Kingdom came to a luxuriously decorated manor and reported on the meeting to the owner of the manor.

Putting down the pure gold fountain pen he bought from the Seris Federation, the man thought for a while and said with a smile:

"It's really interesting. The Federation doesn't seem to have any respect for Demeter's gang of charlatans. They just start fighting without any hesitation. I seem to have missed something?"

"This messenger's words are very firm. Are there no disagreements among them? How strange~"

The representative lowered his head and looked at the ground without saying a word.

The person sitting in front of him, writing furiously, was Prince Bratt, who had returned to the main continent from the Seris Federation.

After arriving on the continent, he did not immediately return to the kingdom. Instead, after receiving the news that Demetria had sent troops to the Kingdom of Palia, he stayed in the city where the alliance's headquarters was stationed to gather information.

The representative to the Alliance was his close supporter and obeyed his words. This was also the reason why the Surya representative intentionally or unintentionally helped the Seris Federation envoy at the meeting.

At this moment, Bratt had lost the boyish temperament he had in front of Medea, and instead had an indescribable majesty and calmness.

Bratt fiddled with the pen in his hand and began to recall what he had seen and heard in the Seris Federation. Suddenly, he seemed to remember something and the pen in his hand fell on the table with a "click":

"Imperial power! Yes! There is something wrong with the imperial power of the Seris Federation! Queen Medea's power is too great!"

He stood up and paced back and forth in the study. Seris kept talking about fairness and equality, and changes in local names.

This made him subconsciously fall into a misconception, that is, the Seris Federation was actually just like their kingdoms, and the king had only limited rights.

The great nobles still control the local economy and military lifeline, otherwise how can we talk about equality?

As for the Federation's claim that there were no nobility, he never took it seriously, thinking that the nobility was just a different name.

This time, the Demetria Church's plan to send troops to the subcontinent took at least several months of planning after his investigation, and was finally put into action.

But the time it took the Seris Federation to intervene in the situation, including delays on the road and direct combat, was probably less than a week in total. He was very sure that the Federation had no information about the Church's participation in the war before he left.

Excluding the journey and the battle, the time left for making a decision is only two or three days at most, which is too fast.

There is only one possibility for such a quick reaction, and that is that the Queen has absolute control over the entire federation. She is the embodiment of the federation's will!

It's not like he hadn't watched the meetings of the Federal House of Commons and the House of Lords before. Medea would always doze off while sitting there, making him think that the Queen was just a mascot.

It turns out that the governor is really just the governor, not just a nobleman changing his vest.

Blatt looked at the bright sunshine outside the window and felt it was a bit magical.

Autocratic and centralized, doing whatever one wants.

This is the dream of many wise kings and emperors in history, but only a few can do it. Even if some of them do it for a short period of time, they will not survive the second year and will die in various strange accidents.

If she could really make her words count, then it would make sense why the federal government responded so quickly and the envoy's words were so firm and strong.

Don't think this is normal. Generally speaking, it is normal to have two or three voices within a kingdom.

Whether it was their Surya Kingdom or those empires, the representatives abroad would hardly give a clear explanation of anything, and their remarks were always vague and ambiguous.

结果

A country that talks about democracy and equality has actually achieved centralized autocracy earlier than these countries that are called kingdoms and empires?

It's outrageous!
