Master of Thermodynamics

Chapter 337: Ambition of the King of the Seas

The intensive rain hits a temporary wooden house with a "crackling" noise. Outside the wooden house, a thick rain curtain covers everything.

Inside the wooden house, Grum held a magic stone lamp, illuminating a map hanging on the wooden wall in detail, trying his best to provide convenience to the lord who was watching the map.

The rest of the island guards stood quietly behind them, for fear of disturbing Lord Lord's thinking.

After a long time, Renault said excitedly:

"Mr. Igos, please see. In this section, the distance between the Loeb River and the Nassau Wetlands is not too far. From the map, it is only more than 200 kilometers."

"Considering the existence of many tributaries, I think the minimum distance between the main stream of the Loeb River and the tributaries of the Nassau River is likely to be no more than 50 kilometers. This distance is very close."

"From your description just now, I also noticed that since the Loeb River originated in the lofty mountains of the Fox Kingdom, its altitude is higher than the Nassau River."

Iggos looked at the map blankly, not understanding what Renault meant to express, but his doubts were quickly answered.

Renault said word by word:

"I'm thinking, is it possible to connect these two rivers!"

Eagleston was stunned.

He instantly understood Renault's intentions.

If the main stream of the Loeb River is connected with the tributaries of the Nassau River, due to the higher terrain of the Loeb River, the water will flow into the tributaries of the Nassau River and finally into the Nassau Wetlands.

As one of the largest rivers on the mainland, the Loeb River has an amazing flow. As a result, the water level of the wetland will skyrocket, and the range will probably expand sharply. This effect is even better than extending the rainy season by 4 months.

After all, the rainy season will always come to an end, and the Loeb River will never stop flowing, which is equivalent to an indefinite rainy season.

In addition, compared with the rainy season, the practice of connecting rivers has another advantage. It will not cause nationwide floods, but will only bring local floods, and the losses are completely within an acceptable range.

The most important thing is that the difficulty of this project is not too great, only tens of kilometers, as long as enough manpower is used, it is more than enough to dig in within a year.

Besides, it is easier to fight against the mud than to fight against the vicious black orcs?

The manpower for digging the ditch is also easy to find. Women, the elderly and even half-year-old children can do it. There is no difficulty in collecting 2300,000 people, and the cost is not exaggerated, up to hundreds of thousands of Kinnars. The noble lords of the whole kingdom would definitely be willing to take out the money for digging the trench.

Obviously, once this approach succeeds, it will definitely cause huge trouble to the Black Orcs, and their plan to cross the wetland will definitely be pushed back and forth.

Even if the Black Orcs successfully crossed the wetland after paying a certain price, what about the supplies?

Materials must be transported by tools such as carriages. How much can they be transported by manpower alone? But can a carriage drive into the swamp?

Don't even think about it!

Without enough supplies, the black **** are looking for death when they come!

After thinking about it, Iggos trembled involuntarily, and his breathing became extremely heavy.

At this moment, there is only one thought in his mind—the kingdom is saved!

Igos suddenly knelt on the ground, kissed Renault's boots piously, and praised loudly:

"Dear Renault, your wisdom is more shining than the brightest star in the sky..."

Facing the invincible army of black orcs, the kingdom was all trembling, and countless people racked their brains hoping to find a way to stop the black orcs, but there were a lot of ideas, none of which was practical.

But after this Lord Renault learned about the rainy season, he came up with a breathtaking plan in a short time. What an amazing wisdom!

The guards on the side were all dumbfounded. They were still a little confused about the situation. They didn't understand why Lord Lord looked at the map for a while and said a few inexplicable words. How did Igos become like this?

Renault did not evade, letting Igos kiss his shoes.

In this hierarchical world, the "corporal courtesy" is not popular, and no one appreciates the "excessive modesty" hypocrisy. For the praise of the inferior, the superior can accept it generously.

When Igos finished kissing, Renault asked with a smile:

"Then, Mr. Iggos, if this plan is successful, do you think it can hold back the Black Orcs for a few years?"

Igos thought for a moment and gave his own answer:

"Your Excellency, another 2 years is absolutely not a problem, 3 or 4 years is not impossible. If the river is connected at a critical moment and the wetland water level soars, it will not be impossible for the black orcs to suffer a big loss..."

Renault nodded in satisfaction.

Two more years means that the territory has four years, enough for the Rune Research Institute to develop magical gas cannons, and it is not a big problem to build a fleet of at least eight armored ships.

This epoch-making fleet can easily wipe out a large fleet consisting of 100 thousand-ton sailing warships with one block and ten, sweeping across the ocean of the whole world with a ruined attitude.

At that time, he is the well-deserved King of the Seas!

Hey, in the future, the black orcs don't even think about going to the sea with a bath, let the master play mud on the shore obediently.

As for what Igos said "let the black orcs suffer a big loss", the specific operation plan should make the army of the Thousand Lake Kingdom worry about it, he didn't bother to take care of it.

Renault asked again:

"What should I do with the follow-up? Who should I tell this news?"

Igos answered without hesitation:

"Your Excellency Renault, of course, is the Duke of Castro of the Thunder Eagle. As one of the most famous nobles in the kingdom, he has enough prestige and connections to promote this plan as soon as possible."

"We should now go to Fort Leiyun, which is next to the northern border. As far as I know, Duke Castro is currently training soldiers in Fort Leiyun!"

Renault happily accepted Igos's opinion.

Well, it's okay to meet the Duke of Castro, and meet the famous "Thunder Eagle" in the Thousand Lake Kingdom, and by the way, you can also establish a relationship with the kingdom's military personnel.

If you can find a relationship to sell Haichaoling's weapons and equipment to the kingdom's military, what an order would be...

At least in the unit of "100,000 Kinnars", millions of Kinnars are possible!

Just thinking about it in his mind made Renault a little excited.

When the rain was slightly weaker, everyone set off again. This time Igos took the lead in the front of the team, and he was extremely eager to convey this plan to the upper levels of the kingdom as soon as possible.

Because the plan to "connect the big river" is implemented sooner, the kingdom will be able to have a stronger "natural line of defense" as soon as possible.

They are currently more than 300 kilometers away from Leiyunbao. Because the muddy roads are really difficult to navigate after the rain, they can't drive fast. Even if they drive with all their strength, it will take almost 2 days to arrive.

According to the itinerary planned by Igos, the next step they will arrive at Torres City, and then go to Fort Thunder Cloud by water.
