Things from Another World

The lowest cost method to occupy air dominance at present is hot air balloon, but using hot air balloon to fight is obviously a joke.

Leaving aside its poor load carrying capacity, slow moving speed, and sluggish control methods have completely limited the use of hot air balloons in the military.

There is nothing that can really make a difference, such as the Skybreaker from Croto.

However, the Skybreaker is obviously a semi-finished product. In Tang En's mind, the best air-defense weapons are supersonic fighters and high-altitude bombers. The former is extremely fast and difficult to defend, and the latter is located at a height of several kilometers. General means of attack They cannot be affected at all.

Not only that, high-altitude bombers can also have variant derivatives. High-altitude transport aircraft can transport a large number of soldiers to the rear of the theater for siege. This mobility is much faster than the current marching method.

It ’s just that there are many technical limitations to achieve these things, and only Mithril Universal Alloy can barely meet the requirements. Takeoff can be achieved by controlling the anti-gravity magic array, and power can be achieved by wind-powered magic energy engines. The Momentum engine was inspired by the turbojet engine from the beginning, which is considered to have regained its original function.

Just trying to integrate these technologies, there are still many problems.

The most important point is that under supersonic conditions, the average driver cannot afford such acceleration at all, so he must be an apocalypse, so the number is very scarce.

Another point, how do you fight at supersonic speeds?

There are no computers and radars here, and it is impossible to lock the target at a long distance. When the enemy is seen, the two sides have already collided.

Control of weapons also requires computers, or something similar to computers.

Before solving this problem, the plan of the fighter plane can only be put aside. The improved dwarf aircraft and helicopter are the best choices at present. The manual control is not slow and fast. It can fight in line of sight, and it can be very good. Evasion of conventional blows.

Although Tang En also wanted to produce his own aircraft, it was very difficult to build an industrial production line from scratch. For the time being, he didn't have the energy and the need. He simply cooperated with Croto to provide technical support to each other.

Computers are more demanding. It is impossible to completely restore them. You can only find other ways.

Because there were so many things to consider, Tang En temporarily put the priority of this matter behind him. After leaving the Magic Energy Engineering Research Institute, he returned to the Lord's Mansion.

"... Mr. Garrian, I told you before that you are a naked extortion! We will not agree to pay this bill!"

As soon as he passed the study, Tang En heard Fiona's dissatisfaction. After hesitated, he walked into the study and saw that Fiona and Garian were facing each other. At the moment, Garrian was not a branch of Star Diamond Bank Garyan, but the arms dealer Garyen with a cigar.

"But, distinguished Ms. Fiona, you must acknowledge that my people and weapons played a huge role in resisting the beast tide. If it were not for me to consume a lot of valuable goods regardless of the consequences, Ellington It may have been completely destroyed by the beast tide. "

Garian spit out a thick ring of smoke, and Fiona frowned, but fortunately the decorations had only a fruity smell, otherwise he would have been kicked out.

"The situation was urgent, so I didn't discuss it with you either. I only had one idea at that time: Keep Ellington at all costs!"

"I did it, so I took it for granted!" Garrian said in a stern voice.

"But we didn't buy those bombs from you at all! It was you and Master Croto who held their breath and took out the comparisons themselves!"

Fiona's most intolerable is actually this. Obviously the result of the goblin and dwarf fighting, why did you want the Lord Ellington to pay the bill?

Croto received technical support from Down, so he didn't say anything, but Garian, the cheeky guy, directly ran the business to send the bills-this is the fourth time in half a month!

It seems that this time he did not want to leave without a result.

Tang En could not help but ask, "What's going on? His Excellency Garrian?"

"Master Lord!"

Fiona and Garian spoke at the same time, and Garian's face immediately filled with a smile: "Thank you, you finally appeared today."

Tang En has been busy recently. Only two days have been free to rest, and it is no wonder that Galian was so emotional.

"Lord Lord, Your Excellency has sent a bill."

"Bill?"

"Yes, about the bill of arms consumed in the fight against the beast."

Fiona drew a corner of her mouth and handed a bill to Down: "Look at it."

Tang En took the bill and scanned it, and suddenly drew a corner of his mouth, he couldn't help but say, "Hello, Garrian, you're really good at robbery."

"No, no, no, you are wrong. If I were to take advantage of the fire, I would not hand you the bill at this time."

Garian waved his hand very seriously: "If I really want to sell the highest price, I will secretly destroy the stability of the wall at the critical moment of the beast tide, and then take out this product when the beast tide is about to break through the wall. Price form, I believe you will be happy to pay in that case. "

Tang En smiled bitterly. No wonder people say that the arms dealer's heart is darker than ink. Many wars are secretly promoted by the arms dealer. Now it seems so.

"But your bill is too outrageous. Look at the price of this magic iron bomb. When it was last sold to me, it was still 5,000 gold coins. Now it has risen to 10,000?"

"The price of goods rises and falls with the urgency of market demand."

Gary said with a look of course: "I think when the tide is coming, it is just when I need these products, it is normal to double the price, isn't it?"

Tang En was speechless.

"You said you weren't robbing while in fire!"

Fiona was very annoyed: "Anyway, the bill of more than 50 million gold coins is too ridiculous! Do you really know what the concept of 50 million gold coins is? The whole year of taxation of the Illus Empire But only 20 million gold coins! "

"A lot? Really not much!"

Garrian shook his head and said, "Only the expensive magic iron bombs, in the fight against those powerful Warcraft, more than 2,000 were used. This is more than 20 million gold coins. The remaining bombs with various functions For example, the value of special bombs such as paralysis bombs, smoke bombs, flashing bombs, etc., adds up to 50 million gold coins. Or do you think that the arms we consume are not worth these gold coins? "

"okay."

Tang En tasted something. With a few flicks, the bill burned to ashes. He said lightly, "Say what you really mean."

Fiona stunned: "The real intention?"

Tang En smiled slightly: "He came up with such a bill that we couldn't afford, wouldn't you think he really wanted it?"

"Master Lord is really smart."

Garrian applauded, and then sniffed up his cigar, took out another document, and said, "Please see."

"What is this? Want to take the opportunity to beat me and join Lord Ellington?"

Tang En opened the file while talking. After a quick glance, he couldn't help raising his eyebrows and said, "Are you serious?"

Garrian said proudly, "Of course, this is the plan after the signature of the great leader!"

Tang En noticed that he later signed a name with a complicated stroke.

Rives Goldtooth.

Goblin leader, owner of the Enclave risk control company.

This document ... No, it should be said to be a contract, which made Tang En frown.

Not as he imagined, the goblin intends to use this bill to control Ellington. The contents of the contract have nothing to do with Ellington's sovereignty. On the contrary, the terms proposed in the contract are all related to Ellington. Kind of cooperation.

Leviz ... No, it should be Star Diamond Bank to provide funding for Ellington, but the requirement is that Star Diamond Bank will receive technical support for asphalt roads and the supply of raw materials. Star Diamond Bank will jointly develop with Ellington When constructing asphalt roads between various towns in Prandall, and at the same time when the toll service is implemented in the future, the benefits will be divided into 80%, 80% for Star Diamond Bank, and 20% for Ellington.

What made Tang En frown wasn't the Star Diamond Bank's desire to provide funding to repair the road, but this profit share.

He knew a long time ago that the construction of highways could not be completed by Ellington's funds alone, and must be supported by the state and a large amount of funds, but before he could discuss them with Victor, the Star Diamond Bank smelled the benefits. Breath, took the initiative to come together.

Goblin is indeed a business wizard.

"You want to invest in roads. I welcome it."

Tang En nodded and continued: "But I disagree with two points. First, the cooperation with Star Diamond Bank is currently limited to the territory of the Illus Empire. The cooperation of other countries is not discussed for the time being, and the Illus Empire There is one more partner in the country, and I need the support of His Victor. "

Garian frowned slightly, and then nodded reluctantly after a short while: "Yes, but I believe you will still come to us from other countries in the future."

Tang En smiled slightly and didn't speak.

In the case of the Illus Empire, it is easy to find him for policy support because of Victor ’s unconditional trust, but other countries are different. The most difficult thing is the first step. It is difficult to find a partner at first. Goblin can see its benefits with its strong financial resources and advanced vision, so they dare to cooperate, but those in power in other countries dare not take risks.

But when the construction of the highway in the Illus Empire is completed and everyone sees the huge potential hidden in it, the cooperating people will probably flock in, and then discuss the policy support and cooperation with the rulers of other countries. It will be much simpler.
