Chapter 15 To Welcome the New Century

When Zelen heard what Marietta, who worked in the weaving factory during the day, said, he immediately opened a marked map regardless of how tired he was working in the arsenal during the day.

According to the Congress, there is a Toara Island formed by a volcanic eruption in the east of Brunei Island. The island is rich in metal resources, especially iron ore.

As early as more than 300 years before Zelen was born, this island was famous for producing various metal ores.

But there is a very bad thing about this island. It looks like it is formed by four peninsulas extending to the northeast, east, southeast and south on the map. And because it was born from a volcanic eruption, Toara Island has many mountains and valleys, and few plains. Even though the former empire built six cities on this island with an area of ​​only more than 170,000 square kilometers, the volcanoes on the island erupted frequently, and the smoke released was so toxic that the people on the island often ran to Brunei Island for refuge...

Wait?

Refuge?

No, volcanic eruption... Yes!

Most of the territory of the Krurod Empire is islands formed by volcanic eruptions. In the past, when the country was at its peak, some officials proposed to use volcanic eruptions to create more land and connect some scattered islands to form a large island.

As a result, some volcanoes on the empire's islands were later experimented in this way, and finally obtained quite good results.

Now the question is, can he use volcanic eruptions to clean up some cities where poisonous lice nests appear?

After all, instead of letting the soldiers of the empire risk their lives to carry out highly dangerous blasting operations, isn't it a better idea to let the lava or deadly smoke produced by the volcanic eruption directly destroy them?

So the suggestion that the speaker did not intend to hear soon came to the hands of the congressional officials, and Senna Gunna was the first to shake his head repeatedly.

Lux: "Senagu, this idea is actually good, but the problem is that we need to use large fighters or warships to drop powerful enough bombs to easily cause an active volcano to erupt."

Senagu: "The problem is that we have just barely rebuilt the 105mm caliber howitzer. Weapons such as warships, tanks, and fighters require more manpower and material resources to ensure their use. However, the idea is not bad, at least it will be useful in the future. Moreover, our Toara Island in the east had a serious eruption four years ago. This trick won't work."

Envira: "It's okay. Compared to Toara Island, we have a variety of islands for experiments. So, Toara Island must be taken next. Even if there are poisonous explosive lice, black-haired dog-headed people or pig-headed people on the island, we must take it down."

Woo...

However, unfortunately, invaders from the outside world always disturb the re-established Krurod Empire and hinder the Krurod Empire's development plan.

"Minnasan! Maiai!"

Accompanied by a slogan that no one could understand, a large group of bipedal creatures with pig heads and human bodies wearing orange clothes, holding various weapons and carrying a lot of equipment appeared on the real-time TV screen, landing from the southern beach.

In response, the troops that had been prepared for a long time naturally entered the combat position as soon as possible. And Zelun, who also learned about the situation, looked at a group of soldiers with joy as they pulled away a truck of ammunition.

Technician A: "Your Majesty?"

Zeren: "Nothing, I just want to go out and see what kind of guys are outside."

Technician A: "Your Majesty, this won't work. If something happens to you, we really can't take responsibility here."

Zeren: "Got it."

Although Zelun gave up his power, the people of the Krurod Empire still respected him for killing two Youlizi and his record of fighting more than a dozen black-haired dog-headed people alone in the past.

It's just that compared to Zelun, the pig-headed people who took the amphibious landing craft to the southern beach of Sugui City were scattered and slowly moved towards Sugui City.

Da da da!

So when these pig-headed people approached the wall of Sugui City within 50 meters, the defenders of Sugui City immediately used general-purpose machine guns to suppress the firepower. The sound of rifle gunfire mixed in made every pig-headed person who didn't have time to dodge fall into a pool of blood.

At the same time, the real-time broadcast was naturally played on the screen of the Congress Hall.

Envira: "The pig-headed people... finally came out from behind the scenes."

Senagu: "Does that mean they finally stopped using the black-haired dog-headed people as cannon fodder and came out to fight us personally?"

Envira: "The pig-headed people back then always had ideas about our country's spices, rubber and diesel trees. We also fought a war with them because of this, and finally won them."

Senagu: "But it was after this battle that they turned the black-haired dog-headed people into their own vassal forces, made up for their losses by exploiting the black-haired dog-headed people, and developed their own nanotechnology. If I'm not mistaken, the reason why those elusive black-haired dog-headed people broke through our radar detection and appeared in places we didn't expect. These pig-headed people must have provided some technical assistance, and even the invasion of the black-haired dog-headed people against us was the pig-headed people's plan itself."

Upon hearing Sennagu's judgment, Prime Minister Envira looked helpless. The invasion of the poisonous lice was bad enough, and then there were a bunch of pig-headed people using energy weapons. This was an extremely painful test for the Krurod Empire, which had entered the end of the century and its people were scattered.

However, this also proved one thing for Envira. In order to conquer the Krurod Empire, the pig-headed people secretly supported and even instigated Sennagu and Mike to launch a coup, thereby destroying the Krurod Empire and ensuring that the invasion of the pig-headed people would not encounter obvious resistance.

For this reason, Envira watched more than a hundred pig-headed people fall outside the city of Sugui, and even the amphibious transport boat responsible for transporting them was hit by six consecutive mortar shells and turned into scrap metal abandoned on the roadside. He knew that he had to hurry up.

If the Krurod Empire did not want to be destroyed by these guys at the end of the century, it had to fight on and fully explore the potential value of every piece of spoils.

Even the bodies of the pig-headed people had to be taken to the fertilizer factory for fermentation and made into organic fertilizer.

For this reason, after Zelen saw a large pile of guns and weapons in the arsenal, as well as a pile of scrap metal that should be armored vehicles, he sped up his work at his post to prevent the empire's soldiers from running out of bullets.

After all, according to the information provided by Marietta, the thunder-blast assault rifles used by the regular army of the Krurod Empire and the 9×40 mm rifle bullets used with them were officially produced in every arsenal on Bony Island.

Compared with manual or semi-automatic rifles, assault rifles are the basic weapons and equipment that the army of the Krurod Empire should be equipped with. And on this basis, cannons, they now need more cannons, even missiles that could be mass-produced before, and various war vehicles as their launch carriers.

Without them, it would be difficult for the Rimai people to survive the end of the century and usher in a new century. Especially when Zelen is watching the workers in the arsenal pick up the pig-headed man's rifle and release blue and white beam bullets at the target.

According to the soldiers responsible for seizing supplies and clearing the battlefield, this rifle is called a wave energy rifle by the pig-headed man, and the light bullets fired are just like the physical bullets that Zelen is now responsible for producing, and they are also quite lethal.

As for the other things that look like door-breaking hammers, they are small wave energy cannons used by pig-headed people for attacking.

In other words, the Krurod Empire has fallen behind in scientific research. For this reason, on the one hand, he has to speed up his pace and make bullets for the soldiers; on the other hand, he has to think about whether he can do something for the soldiers.

Even ordinary pig-headed infantrymen have begun to use light bullet rifles that they have never heard of or seen before, not to mention the magic warriors who are actually mass-produced. Therefore, he needs to come up with something that can reduce the burden of the soldiers and ensure their combat effectiveness...
