Red dragon: in charge of natural disasters

Chapter 426 Arms Race (Part 2)

"Dang!"

Another crisp sound.

The wheelchair man patted the cannon on the ogre's shoulder and said excitedly: "There is also this one, the [Thunder Hammer-IV Generation] launched by our Clauber Group!"

Naven's pupils shrank again.

This is the thing called "cannon"! This weapon played a huge role in the 16th Holy City War, and even killed several Titans!

And now, as long as they pay enough gold coins, they, Cassander, can also have such a thing! They can also use it to shoot down the opponent's angels!

The wheelchair man in the battlefield caressed the gun barrel affectionately and continued, "The barrel of this smoothbore gun is made of a special alloy, which can effectively reduce temperature and prevent explosion."

"And this new type of shell is even more amazing. It is a shrapnel shell carefully developed by the Imperial Armory. The warhead is filled with gunpowder. It will explode after hitting the target, which can cause the greatest damage to the enemy."

"Come on, show it to this customer."

The ogre artilleryman took the silver coins from the wheelchair man in the battlefield, then put the gun on the ground, skillfully calculated the angle, and then loaded the shells.

"Boom!"

The shell drew a beautiful arc in the air.

It exploded hundreds of meters away, and the shrapnel flew everywhere, like a blooming flower-it really deserves the name of "shrapnel shell".

Naven looked into the distance with a surprised expression.

In terms of pure lethality, this is no less than the three-ring fireball technique, and it is even more overwhelming in terms of range and strike range.

Noticing the other party's expression, the wheelchair man in the battlefield suddenly felt stable.

He put his hands on his hips and said proudly: "This is the Hammer of the Empire, an absolute killer on the battlefield, the best choice for starting a large-scale war!"

Naven couldn't wait to ask: "How many gold coins do these rifles and artillery cost?"

The battlefield wheelchair man kept it a secret and asked with a smile: "Do you know how much the Thracian Kingdom spent on the arms it bought?"

Naven shook his head.

"Each of their rifles costs 99 silver coins, and each artillery is 30 gold coins."

Naven's eyes widened immediately.

It's so cheap?

The price of this artillery is not even worth a fireball scroll.

"That's right, our Claube Group's products have always been good quality and low price, and strive to bring the best experience to customers."

The battlefield wheelchair man continued:

"And the performance and appearance of the two products I introduced to you are far better than the batch sold to Thrace, so we will slightly increase the price - it shouldn't be too much."

"Of course."

Naven nodded, he was ready to be ripped off.

"However, due to the friendship between His Majesty Cassius and His Majesty Otis, we can give you a friendly price."

"Each [Flying Dragon Flame-I] is priced at 128 silver coins, and each [Thunder Hammer-IV] is priced at 39 gold coins."

The battlefield wheelchair man covered his chest and made a look of reluctantly giving up.

"This is almost the cost price, which is the bottom line we can accept. What do you think?"

Before Naven responded, the battlefield wheelchair man sighed heavily again.

"Alas-"

"Although His Majesty Cassius remained neutral in this war, he had a good impression of the Kingdom of Cassander and always believed that His Majesty Otis was the orthodox of Fadlan."

"In this case, for the sake of His Majesty Otis, we might as well do a loss-making business and give you an unprecedented discount!"

"As long as you can place an order of more than 60,000 rifles and more than 7,000 artillery at a time, we will give you a 20% discount!"

Looking at the exaggerated performance of the battlefield wheelchair man, Naven's mouth twitched slightly.

But he was still quite happy in his heart, he could finally make a greater contribution to the Kingdom of Cassander!

"Okay, I will go back and discuss with Lord Otis immediately and give you an exact number as soon as possible."

"Okay!"

The wheelchair man on the battlefield was immediately delighted.

But he thought for a moment and took out another beautifully carved gold coin - the front of the gold coin was a lifelike majestic dragon head, and the back was a burning ember emblem with vertical pupils and flames.

This is the latest gold coin issued by the Imperial Bank, which has begun to circulate widely in the empire. The official name is [Golden Dragon], and because of its unique appearance, it is also called "Golden Dragon Head" or "Emperor Money".

"Sir Naven, I forgot to tell you just now that our Clauber Group only accepts settlement in gold nars. You need to buy an equivalent amount of gold nars at the Imperial Bank before trading."

"Okay, thank you for reminding me, I will pay attention."

Naven nodded, but didn't care too much.

He observed carefully that the weight of the gold coin was not much less. In his opinion, this was just a way for the empire to make money by minting coins.

The wheelchair man took out another exquisite wooden box and came forward.

"By the way, are you interested in seeing this collection of pistols?"

"This is a treasure that many imperial generals carry with them, and even Marshal Doro can't let it go."

In this way, in a friendly atmosphere, the wheelchair man successfully completed his sales promotion again.

A few days later, the Cassander envoys went north again.

The Klauber Group received a large order from the Kingdom of Cassander, which surpassed the last Thrace Kingdom, and once again caused a nationwide craze.

400,000 [Flying Dragon Flame-I] rifles, 36,000 [Thunder Hammer-IV Generation] artillery.

Countless ammunition and shells.

A total of more than 2 million gold coins.

And the wheelchair man in the battlefield once again became the sales champion of this month, with unlimited glory.

But some people also questioned that he relied on his special relationship with the steel frenzy to get such precious opportunities every time.

In the vast Fadlan region in the south, the war between Cassander and Thrace further intensified.

Because the Burning Empire sold arms to both sides of the war, Cassander and Thrace recruited a large number of civilians into the army, conducted simple and rapid training, and equipped them with guns and ammunition purchased from the empire.

The war spread from the Holy City area to every inch of the border between the two countries.

In the vast territory of Holy Fadlan, there was smoke everywhere, guns and cannons whistling, and the people who once held their heads high for the same empire fought each other.

With the instigation of the Burning Empire behind the scenes, the cruel game of war seemed to have a new way of playing.

A new era is coming.

"Those guns and artillery are the source of disaster. We keep buying more lethal and more expensive weapons, but we find that the land under our feet has become devastated."

"The people of Fadlan once fought each other, but no one was the winner. Their blood nourished the monster in the north, making it stronger and stronger, until - its wings covered the entire continent."
