Warhammer: Return of the Dragon

Chapter 728
A compendium of magical engineering concepts compiled by Priest Juan and given to Bloxon by Elvis.

He also told the dwarves that if they use the weapons inspired by this book to kill the rat men, they will be watched by Sotek.

If the weapon is blessed by the snake god's prophet, the more rats that die under the gun's muzzle, the more powerful it will be.

Regarding Sotek and the Snake Prophet mentioned by Elvis, Bloxon nodded blankly and planned to spend some time at sea to study it.

Even in magical engineering, dwarves should surpass elves. This is an unquestionable truth.

With such noble beliefs, the young geek boarded the ship and headed for the new world. For Torek and him, this trip may change many things.

Watching the voyage fleet leave from the office window, Edgar did not know the purpose of the dwarf's trip and was not interested in asking.

The two consecutive defeats of Gunshan Kingdom forced the operation to be postponed and the preparation phase continued.

The veteran sat back in his chair and asked the old dragon prince who was processing documents next to him, "Where are the Knights of Tal Gaiwo, still complaining about the tasks I assigned them?"

The Dragon Prince nodded sternly and reported the real-time news, "The first team has roughly surveyed the situation around Golden Oath City and is resting on the ship at sea. The second team's actions were due to the previous temptation of the green skins to kill each other, and the chaotic situation in the bad land led to progress. Slowly. But in my opinion, the little guys are a bit unmotivated."

The two teams of Tal Gavor knights who had just been transferred from Anaheim were originally full of enthusiasm and thought they were going to fight the green skins in a bloody battle. However, when a reconnaissance mission was issued, the talented noble knights were dumbfounded.

Let the gryphon knights specialize in reconnaissance missions?Is there such a way to use high-end combat power?

But the fact is that because Minas Nir, who calls the shots, strictly prohibits the presence of large flying creatures in the territory, the noble council that intends to collect Pegasus reconnaissance information from various places has no choice but to give up.

And that idiot Gilgalion has secretly implemented an embargo list of strategic items against Caledor because of previous conflicts. Not to mention seconding the Pegasus Knight, even a packhorse for plowing the fields can't be taken away from Elion.

In desperation, we can only let the Tal Gaiwo knight who is supposed to play the high-end game do some dirty work. We can't dispatch dragons from the country to take charge of reconnaissance. This can easily arouse public dissatisfaction, especially with Ingersoth as the leader. The working class who resisted the oppression of the palace.

Thinking of the terrible face of Knight Tal Gaivor holding his nose and flying into the sky, Edgar smiled slightly. Although he was reluctant, the completion of the task was still remarkable. He had not supported Iris for many years. .

The elderly dragon prince beside him opened a document and explained the latest incident, "Her Majesty the Queen seems to be very interested in the Badlands. Lila Ze is inquiring about some information through Davian's vent."

"Lila Ze..." Edgar didn't have much impression of this young chief maid. She disrupted Aslay's competition last time, which caused her reputation to slip a lot.

According to rumors, this woman's political stance seems to be caught between the Council of Avalon and the Eternal Queen.

"What is your Majesty's attitude?"

"According to the information disclosed by the palace, as long as the prince explains the ultimate goal of Operation Badlands as an important event that will benefit Ulthuan as a whole, Her Majesty the Queen is willing to send elite troops to support and lead the war to victory."

The Dragon Prince, who was full of seriousness, smiled when he mentioned the elite. Then after reciting victory, he finally couldn't help but put aside his respect for the queen and laughed.

Avalon's army leads the war to victory?This is probably the most ridiculous thing the Dragon Prince has heard in years.

Edgar, who had a tense face, also twitched his face and coughed twice to signal his old friend to be more serious. This was a symbol of Ulthuan's pardon from Her Majesty the Queen.

The Dragon Prince laughed for a while, raised his pen and asked the coach for his next move. The palace gave all parties a lot of power. If Edgar thought that these Avalon sissies were holding him back and didn't want to be used as nannies for military training, he could just refuse.

Edgar rubbed his palms and thought about how to handle this matter. Based on the attitude of the palace, it was impossible for the Eternal Queen to know about the existence of the Dragon Horn and just find any reason to pull some young men from Avalon.The Avalon sisters and maids are no longer needed. They are not qualified to serve them, and most of them are female nobles. It is not easy to deal with the funeral arrangements after they die.

After all, killing an greenskin or a mouse is different from killing a Druzi. Even with the Eternal Queen's endorsement in advance, Caledor still needs to bear a lot of pressure.

After thinking for a while, Edgar made a strange proposal, "If you want to help Caledor, send new soldiers, not spearmen or rangers, but archers, at least 120 years old, and don't send some children." Come for an outing.”

The old friend immediately understood the meaning of this move and wrote out the request with a smile. When it comes to handling bows and arrows, Avalon is still good at it.

Although he is not a tough man like the Caledor Mountain Patrol, who uses a two-handed sword at close range and a large bow at a distance, his accuracy is still quite good, he can manage a large amount, and the dense coverage of precise firepower is the characteristic of his kingdom.

There is no need to think too much about training and morale issues. If all the professional Caledor soldiers on the front line have been defeated and fled, it would be a bit of a dream to expect a group of Avalon boys to resist the front line.

Generally speaking, it takes 50 years for an archer to become a spearman. During this time, Edgar does not care about his melee combat ability, as long as he shoots green skins.

The tough and powerful words were written in the hands of the Dragon Prince. He took out the next document, read the title and threw it into the trash can. It was also a letter asking for war. The factory was full, or the academy was completed. Caledo could not There are so many places where people are needed more than before.

But it seems that some of it can be allocated...

Raising his head, the Dragon Prince glanced at Edgar, who was considering how to attack Golden Oath City, and asked tentatively,
"If Imric is willing to issue a mobilization order to speed up the pace, the speed can be at least doubled. Our number in Sartusa is too small. Including the newly arrived soldiers, there are only more than five thousand, including Including support staff.”

Edgar rejected the number without raising his head, "It's six thousand."

"I didn't expect that the number six thousand could come out of your mouth." The old dragon prince also had some emotion in his question. The followers of the giant horned viper can probably be regarded as Caledor's armed force, right?

"It's just forced by the situation. Edtelis has been looking for me for people and wants to increase the number of expedition teams in the Dark Land."

"so?"

"I sent a team of rogues hired from Tyrell to Dawn Fortress. I hope he likes this gift. If trained properly, it is also a team that can perform miracles."

The old dragon prince gave a thumbs up. This is a really good move. Now everyone cares about the little force in their hands. There is no doubt that Sartosa has received more support, and this place has a higher priority.

But Edtelis was a little unhappy. He was tricked into an overseas fortress on an isolated island far away from civilization. He did some boring things with pirates every day and assisted Ku Ga to regain the spiritual core of the Southland. How could he come from a bad place? Wonderful.

"He is still too young and has never been in the military department of the Phoenix Court. Otherwise, these things..." Edgar shook his head slowly. They were all bad memories. The internal fighting of the elves can still be reflected after the victory of the war. , transferring responsibilities to gain influence is the most common method.

Holding troops in hand, weakening the strength of friendly forces, and gaining greater military exploits is a common occurrence for princes from various countries who are good at calculations.

But fortunately, Ulthuan has replaced a group of enterprising young people, who are much more advantageous than their predecessors, and are willing to sacrifice their lives in war.

Edgar squinted at the shipping map on the wall, focusing on the Dawn Fortress far away from the coverage of Assur's forces, and teased the Lieutenant General's subsequent arrangements,
"It's good to be like this now. He has the same stubborn temper as Wycliffe. He also needs to be reminded not to rush into the dark place, lest the lizard people have objections and think that Caledo is not doing things well, although I doubt whether these cold-blooded creatures Have this thinking ability.

By the way, tell Edtelis to come here at any time after finishing reorganizing the Dawn Fortress. I need the support of the dragon. "
