boom--!

A row of shells flew across the air like a meteor, and collectively landed on the 'imaginary enemy' hiding in the barren hill. The explosion directly flattened the place, leaving a hole surrounded by green smoke on the ground.

"A large group of enemies has been found ahead! Prepare to fire to suppress!"

Facing the rolling stones sprinting in groups, the turret turned quickly, and the machine gun fixed on the side and the coaxial machine gun of the main gun fired at the same time, and the rumbling round stones were immediately submerged in the smoke and dust raised by the bullets.

"The second wave of enemies is about to strike, just crush them!"

Just as the second wave of rolling stones rolled towards the armored corps along the slope, the tank group also launched a countercharge. This scene was like a crazy bison crashing into a flock of sheep.Relying on the solid armor, the armored group immediately broke through the charge of the rolling stone, and while smashing the enemy, it blasted the stone to pieces with the body machine gun and the coaxial machine gun.

"Keep going!"

There was obvious excitement in the voice of the regiment commander. The feeling of the roar of the heavy artillery was really higher than the salvo of bows and arrows or the stones thrown by the trebuchet.Facing such a mighty giant steel beast, even if the giants with a height of three or four meters were fully armored, they might not be able to stop them from charging in groups.

……

As expected, the Panzer Corps flattened the enemy's camp only by relying on its mobility and impact.The only fly in the ointment was probably that a tank got stuck in the mud halfway, and the rookie driver couldn't play the tank's off-road ability, so he fell behind.The four of them soaked in the mud for a long time before pulling their beloved tank out of the mud pit-the group charge was over at this time.

"Which genius came up with the idea of ​​fighting against stones and grass?" Ivan felt that the difficulty of training was a bit low.

"It's...me." Xiaoxi deliberately dragged out her tone, and replied in a sarcastic manner.

"Compared to fighting non-existent imaginary enemies, they can completely apply to fight against elite demon hunting squads. Only in this way can they reflect the majesty and strength of the armored legion... and by the way, they can also let capable people see the market." Yiwen looked very helpless. .

"Please don't make too many demands on this group of recruits. They have never touched a car in their life, and they only have to drive a tank in the past few months!" Xiaoxi replied loudly.

"That's right, we'll talk about it in half a year." Yiwen followed suit.

"By the way, there is one more question."

Xiaoxi held her hands upwards, and a three-dimensional image of Hyperion appeared above her palms, and many large and small locations were marked with red circles:

"According to your plan, it is intended to let the empire own the oil industry in a short period of time while researching top-level technology, and present a crushing advantage to the surrounding barbarians. So I spent some time and found many large oil fields. After all, there is no Petroleum cannot be called the petroleum industry. I think it is very necessary for us to explore immediately, especially the location of the Southern Barren Desert—this landform determines that there is a large amount of high-quality oil stored there.”

"It's really necessary...then spend money."

Yiwen closed his head lightly, then waved his hand, signaling Xiaoxi to do what she wanted—anyway, the oil industry is an outdated technology for the Federation, and it is not worth much at all, just continue to spend money to buy it.

one-one-one-one

During the period when Ivan was immersed in the manufacture of space-based weapons, the first batch of grain brought by the super seeds had been harvested.Although he was almost exhausted, facing all kinds of piles of food and vegetables made the people of Menes feel happy.In this era when civilians basically had two meals a day, such a large grain output was enough to allow them to have a lot of surplus food while living comfortably and raising livestock.

However, the festive atmosphere didn't last long, because there was too much food, and too much food could not be sold.As a result, the prices of food and vegetables fell again and again, almost to the point of being worthless.This is also the first time that the Menesians have raised concerns about too much food—it’s really annoying, how could they have such worries in the days when they had eaten their last meal and never finished their next meal.

Just when this purely agricultural country was worrying about grain prices, His Majesty Ivan did not disappoint the people, and ordered the grain depots in various places to purchase grain at the price of [-] pounds of grain for a new Deben, so that the farmers who were originally worried about grain prices Turn worry into joy.

After the white silver dollars were thrown out, the grain storage in treasuries all over the country skyrocketed, and soon reached the point of piling up like a mountain.The imperial government opened up border trade at the right time, and sold grain at the price of two new debons of [-] pounds.Faced with such a generous price, the barbarians who had been subject to the embargo were almost overjoyed and rushed to buy grain. For a while, a steady stream of precious metals rushed into the empire's market.

Relying on this income, the plan of the oil industry finally kicked off. Relying on fully automatic exploration and refining technology, these black golds were soon ejected from the ground.However, mining is easy and transportation is difficult. For Menis, a country with almost no drivers, probably only the laying of underground pipelines can transport oil out in a short time.

Fortunately, this problem can be directly solved by industrial robots, and the industrial base in Menis is not too large. Xiaoxi expects to complete a nationwide oil transportation network within half a year.Along with the planning of the oil transportation line, Ivan purchased 156 industrial projects in one go, intending to turn Menes from an agricultural country into a superficial oil industrial country in just a few years.

Anyway, they are all unmanned factories, and there are almost no finished products. If a large number of industrial products cannot be sold, they can stop production temporarily.All in all, the military industry system must be supported first, and other things will be discussed later.

Chapter 35 Blizzard

After forcibly dragging Menis, an agricultural country, into the ranks of industrial countries, Ivan established the first university in Menis—Imperial University—in a very short period of time by 'squeezing' artificial intelligence.

Considering the counterattack of the old-fashioned forces, when the aristocrats didn't know what a university was, he quickly carefully selected more than [-] elites from the families of martyrs, royal families, and small and medium-sized nobles, and semi-forcibly kicked them into the empire. University.A semi-closed education is implemented, and they are promised that they will have no worries about food and clothing during their studies, that their families will receive subsidies, and that they will be able to become officials once they graduate.

Facing this kind of opportunity, no one in the first batch of students had any objections, and all of them worked hard to absorb knowledge.Because it cultivated a group of pure novices from scratch, the first phase of the Imperial University implemented an 8-year education, and a group was selected and eliminated every year. Cheating, truancy, and skipping classes were strictly prohibited. Serious cases could be sentenced to exile.

Generally speaking, the imperial university established by Wang Ting is still in its infancy, so there are not many subjects.In order to keep up with the federal level of education, most of them are subjects closely related to productivity. There are a total of the following majors:

Faculty of Arts: Department of Holy Book Literature, Department of Federal Languages, Department of History, Department of Philosophy, Department of Sociology.

Faculty of Science: Department of Physics, Department of Chemistry, Department of Computing, Department of Earth Sciences, Department of Biology, Department of Psychology.

Law School: Department of Political Science, Department of Economics.

College of Engineering: Department of Civil Engineering, Department of Mechanical Engineering, Department of Electrical Engineering.

Academy of Superpowers: Department of Mechanic Microcontrol, Department of Elemental Chemistry, Department of Hand-to-hand Combat.

In addition, there are agricultural research department, sports department, military training department, mind development department and so on.

Because of the strong support of Wang Ting, the college can be said to be full of famous teachers, mainly including: Xiaoxi, professor of literature, Xiaoxi, professor of Federal Language, Xiaoxi, professor of history, Xiaoxi, professor of philosophy, Xiaoxi, professor of sociology, and Xiaoxi, professor of physics. Xi, Professor of Chemistry Xiaoxi, Professor of Mathematical Sciences... and Professor of Mechanical Engineering Xiaoxi, Professor of Electrical Engineering and so on.

……

As the saying goes, speed is precious, and relying on artificial intelligence and the Hyperion Development Consortium, Ivan’s operations can be said to be fast and ruthless—everything was arranged before the nobles figured out the role of the Imperial University and prepared to make trouble. It's all right.

But no matter how fast he is, what should come will eventually come.

Because this wave of operations is not the usual boiling frogs in warm water, but digging out the foundations of their aristocratic families, and digging them cleanly and thoroughly-if you hold your nose and endure it, there will be no such thing as them in the imperial government decades later. thing?

You must know that the reason why noble families can monopolize the government of the empire is because they monopolize knowledge!It is obvious to many big families that an official title without knowledge will not last long.Now that you can become an official after studying at the Imperial University, those who have a higher knowledge base than them don’t know where to go. Will they still have a voice in the future?

I can't bear it!

It's all right that the royal family is ahead of him, after all, he is a relative of His Majesty the Sun King, anyway, it is well known that his old man favors his relatives.However, the poor and poor settled down, and even the untouchables can be officials, but the descendants of these aristocratic lords cannot go to university. What does this mean! ?

Engage in blood discrimination?Who is the nobleman?

Make trouble!Something must be done!

The principals of many big families share the same hatred, and they collectively decided in private to make a big decision-tomorrow all strikes, kneel in the palace of King Quan and cry loudly, until His Majesty the Sun King allows their descendants to study in college!

It is impossible to rebel, and I dare not rebel in my life.Passive sabotage is afraid of the corona knights turning history into a dark place, harming civilians and worrying about artificial satellite monitoring, only crying can win the rights and interests.

With the lessons learned from the six major families and the unrivaled miraculous skills that Ivan showed in the event of the evil disaster, they don't have any wrong thoughts now, so they can only persuade His Majesty to change his mind by going on strike.

The solar calendar is 1458, the end of the year.

Yiwen boarded the Sun Throne as usual. Before he could sit still, he saw many officials from the six divisions standing up one after another, and then fell to their knees with a crash.Crying loudly at almost the same time—hundreds of people up and down were wailing in unison. The scene can be said to be earth-shattering, resounding through the sky, and it made his head buzz.

"Stop, stop, why are you ministers crying?" On the throne, Ivan showed an expression of not knowing the truth and turning pale with shock.Elulomei silently covered her ears, then looked at her nose, nose and heart, pretending that she was a large plastic doll.

When he asked, the crying was a little softer, and the chief officer of the Precepts Academy, Seined, stopped crying, and replied with a gloomy face:

"We are crying that Your Majesty is not benevolent in governing and dealing with things unfairly. He does not take the merits of his officials to heart, and intentionally abuses us veterans who have worked so hard for the empire."

"How could such a thing happen!"

Ivan pretended to be furious, slapped the armrest vigorously, and stood up from the throne suddenly:
