Magic Industry Empire - 440. Chapter 440 The Sac Kingdom Has a Magical Catapult
“You are right. Military magic machines are very powerful. It can even be said to be the core equipment of our Lampari Kingdom army. Of course, they cannot be sold to other countries.” Major McConly nodded and rejected Stan Xu. Principal Ding expressed his appreciation for his request to purchase military magic machinery.
After seeing the envoy sent by Angklu last night, Xu Yi came to the military training ground outside the city to find Major Mcconley the next morning.
In addition to meeting as agreed in advance, by the way, he also informed Major Mcconley of part of the conversation with Angcru’s messenger last night.
After all, military magic machinery is different from ordinary household magic machinery, and it is obviously subject to certain controls.
Ordinary weapons and equipment are nothing more, like military magic machinery, which is also very important to the military department of the Lampari Kingdom, naturally, it is necessary to notify the military department in advance and obtain the consent of the military department.
However, the military clearly did not want such important things to flow outside of the Lampari Kingdom, so Major Mcconley deeply agreed with Xu Yi’s decision.
Xu Yi smiled: “Since the Military Department recognizes that military magic machinery is the core equipment, shouldn’t we place more orders?”
Major McConley gave a dry smile: “Well…it needs to be discussed before a decision can be made.”
Xu Yiqi said: “This is not quite right. When the military department had no money before, it placed so many orders with our chamber of commerce. This year, the kingdom’s finances have improved so much, and the military’s budget will definitely increase a lot. Why? Are you hesitant to buy military magic machinery?”
Major McConly shook his head slowly, hesitated for a moment, and sighed slightly: “Chairman Xu, you are closely related to your Royal Highness. I must have heard that Prince Eric is rectifying the Northern Army in town and intends to counterattack Sark. Kingdom?”
“Indeed, I heard Her Royal Highness mentioned it.” Xu Yi nodded. “But what does this have to do with the military department’s hesitation in purchasing military magic machines? If you really want to counterattack the kingdom of Sark, shouldn’t you buy more military magic machines? Our Chamber of Commerce has just developed two new types of military magic machines some time ago. The machinery, if equipped to the Zhenbei Army, will definitely make this counterattack smoother.”
“I know this very well, and I also believe in the capabilities of your new flying business association. But…” A wry smile appeared on Major Mcconley’s face. “Chairman Xu, the Zhenbei Army is currently under the command of His Royal Highness Prince Eric, and the relationship between your New Flying Chamber of Commerce and His Royal Highness Severine…”
Xu Yi was startled slightly and frowned: “His Royal Highness won’t be so disregarded of the overall situation, right? Regardless of the relationship between our Chamber of Commerce and His Royal Highness, the role of these military magic machines is beyond doubt.”
“I understand, you understand. In fact, His Royal Highness also understands this. But… President Xu, the different positions of your and His Royal Highness have determined that many things cannot be done. I think you should be able to understand.”
“I understand?” Xu Yi couldn’t help but let out a sneer.
Although he has not met the Prince Eric until now, but from the decision he made, it can be seen that the prince is really short-sighted.
Even if the positions are different, how important it is for the Kingdom of Lampari to counterattack the Kingdom of Sark. In this kind of national event, if you let yourself take the initiative to abandon your advantage and not use it because of your position, wouldn’t it be a sacrifice in vain? The lives of the soldiers of the Zhenbei Army are even more disregarding the interests of the entire Lampari Kingdom?
Thinking of this, Xu Yi’s heart suddenly moved.
“His Majesty the Kingdom has no opinion on the decision of the prince?” Xu Yi asked.
Although there are not many contacts with His Majesty the King, it can be seen from a short contact that His Majesty King Lampari XIII deserves to be called the Lord by everyone. He is very courageous and visionary, and very Be decisive.
Xu Yi didn’t believe that he couldn’t see the hidden problems behind Prince Eric’s decision.
“His Majesty said nothing.” Major Mcconley shook his head. “Because when the two princes and the queen Severini were dispatched, His Majesty the King said that he would not interfere in any decision of the three of them.”
“But what Prince Eric wants to do this time is related to the entire Lampari Kingdom. Does His Majesty the King still sit back and watch?” Xu Yi said in a daze.
“Don’t try to guess what your Majesty the King thinks.” Major McConly shook his head lightly, then said: “But I think that your Majesty the King might just want to see the abilities of His Royal Highness Prince Eric through this matter… …”
“Use the entire northern army to test His Royal Highness Prince Eric?” Xu Yi frowned deeply. “His Majesty doesn’t worry about overplaying and putting the entire Kingdom of Lampari at a disadvantage?”
“I said, don’t try to guess what His Majesty the King thinks.” Major McConly told Xu Yi seriously, patted him on the shoulder, and continued: “Okay, the discussion on this matter ends here. I asked you to come here today mainly to show you something.”
Xu Yi followed Major Mcconley to a warehouse next to the training ground in wonder. As soon as he walked into the gate, he saw a huge object standing upright in the middle of the warehouse.
With a glance, Xu Yi was taken aback.
“This is… the magic trebuchet?” Xu Yi walked to this machine that looked similar to the magic trebuchet produced by the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and took a close look at it, but shook his head again. “No, this thing is quite different from the magic trebuchet produced by our chamber of commerce. Major McConly, is it possible that your military department is secretly researching and making magic trebuchets?”
“Do you have a lot of money to use when our military department has a lot of money? If your new flying business association provides the magic trebuchet, why do you need to develop it yourself.” Major McConly shook his head and glanced at the magic trebuchet in the middle of the warehouse. His eyes became serious. “This magic trebuchet was captured by the Northern Army in a battle when the Sark Kingdom counterattacked the Murto Mountains some time ago.”
Xu Yi was stunned: “That is to say…this magical trebuchet was made by the Kingdom of Sark?”
Little Maiconley carefully observed the look on Xu Yi’s face and confirmed that he was not fake, and then slowly nodded, “That’s right.”
The expression on Xu Yi’s face immediately became extremely solemn, and he circled the magic trebuchet a few times again, and even climbed to the top of the magic trebuchet to check it carefully.
After checking all the details, the expression on Xu Yi’s face became more solemn.
“How is it? President Xu, how does this magic catapult compare to the magic catapult produced by your new flying business association?” Major Mcconley asked.
Xu Yi glanced at him and asked, “What do you think?”
Major Maconley shrugged: “I think it’s far from it. Although this magic trebuchet looks quite big, its strength and frequency are much worse than your new flying chamber of commerce magic trebuchet. Overall, the power is too far apart.”
“Well, I think so too. But…” Xu Yi raised his head and glanced at the huge magic trebuchet that was three people tall. There was a trace of confusion in his eyes. “The Sac Kingdom can actually imitate the Magic Catapult. This is really not to be underestimated. Besides the Magic Catapult, have they imitated Magic Liannu?”
“I haven’t found it yet.” Major McConey shook his head. “Chairman Xu, let you look at this thing, mainly to ask, do you think… how similar is this magic trebuchet to the magic trebuchet of your New Flying Merchant Association?”
Xu Yi narrowed his eyes slightly: “Are you suspicious of our Chamber of Commerce?”
“I really doubt it.” Major McConley nodded with a serious expression. “Chairman Xu, you once said that although the magic catapult looks very large, it is actually a very precise magic machine. Even if there is a little mistake, it may make the whole magic catapult inoperable, so It’s extremely difficult to develop and produce.”
“Yes, that’s what I said.” Xu Yi reached out his finger and nodded the magic trebuchet next to him. “A magic catapult uses several tons of steel and contains as many as two hundred parts. Any part is required to be extremely precise and strict. As long as there is one mistake, let alone make it work normally, even if you want it. It is very difficult to assemble it successfully.”
“So I want to ask… How did the Kingdom of Sark produce such a magic trebuchet with such precision and difficulty in research and development?” Dao stabbed as deeply as a knife.
Xu Yi met Major McConley’s gaze, did not let him down, and said with a serious expression: “I understand you doubt our thoughts, but Major McConley, I must solemnly explain to you that our Chamber of Commerce will never privately Such an important thing is handed over to countries other than the Lampari Kingdom, let alone to an enemy country like the Sac Kingdom.”
Major Mcconley stared at Xu Yi for a long time, then nodded slightly: “If I didn’t believe you, President Xu, you wouldn’t be standing here and talking to me now. You should have been thrown into jail long ago. NS.”
Xu Yi smiled slightly: “If I want to betray the Kingdom of Lampari, it’s more than just a magic trebuchet.”
Major Macconley’s face changed slightly, apparently thinking of the serious consequences if Xu Yi and the New Flying Merchants Association betrayed the Lampari Kingdom. After a moment of contemplation, the expression on his face moved, and Xu Yi smiled again.
“I believe President Xu your loyalty to the kingdom. But the Kingdom of Sark can actually make a magic trebuchet. I hope President Xu can give me and the military an explanation as soon as possible. If you can’t do it, President Xu, The military will send someone to assist you.”
The last sentence was almost a threat and warning, but Xu Yi didn’t care much about Major Mcconley’s tone at this time.
Compared with the threats and warnings of Major Mcconley, the first thing to clarify is whether this magic catapult was developed by the Sac Kingdom after seeing the magic catapult used by the Zhenbei Army, or The research and development materials of the Magic Catapult were stolen from the New Flying Chamber of Commerce, and then imitated.
If it is the latter, the problem is undoubtedly much more serious.
