Chapter 160: Private Troops and Weaponry Workshop
Outside the Endless Tower, Ganon and Mora were inspecting and talking in the territory.
"You originally wanted to build a weapons workshop?" Mo La blinked in surprise.
"Yes, I want to build fortifications around the territory and cultivate a usable private army. I hope to use the dwarf's forging technology to build a weapons workshop, probably in this area, to provide advanced and high-quality weapons for the troops. To be honest, I quite like the weapons level of the Imperials," Ganon said.
The dozen or so prisoners previously seized from the principality's dragon-slaying troops have been used by Ganon to participate in the restoration project of the Endless Tower.
Now that the Endless Tower has been basically repaired, they are no longer needed, and these people have behaved quite compliantly. Ganon released them from the dungeon and allowed them to build villages and live in habitable places in the territory. Let look after the farmland in that area.
But this is still a bit of a waste of manpower. With the power of the Temple of the Earth Mother, there is basically no need to pay special attention to the care of the farmland. It is only more labor-intensive during harvesting, but this golem made of stone can basically meet the needs.
These people were originally considered to be soldiers with relatively good physical fitness, so Ganon began to consider the idea of recruiting more people and integrating them into a private army.
Another reason that pushed him to do this was the [blessing] he received from the God of War.
He named this new blessing "War Song", which can strengthen the strength of his own troops on a large scale. It is equivalent to releasing a "Fearless War Cry" to everyone, and then asking them to release a super warrior according to their physical ability level. The "jedi counterattack" that can only be mastered.
This is undoubtedly an extremely powerful ability on the battlefield, but if there are no soldiers in hand, it seems a bit useless.
Ganon also felt that it was time for him to form a large-scale private army in the territory. Now that the territory has expanded significantly, the problem of food and money have been solved, and there are conditions for forming an army.
The situation in the Principality of Xihe has calmed down, but the hostility between the Empire and him still continues. Then the Beishan Kingdom, which is allied with the Empire, may also stand on the same front as the Empire. The Beishan Dwarf King does not seem to care about the disappearance of Mo La. He is related, but it is also possible that he and the Empire will attack his territory out of profit, just like launching a war against Mu Xia.
In addition, there is Dolan Siloni and the Dragon Religion Group led by her who have been eyeing him, and then there is the Dragon Ascension Nest behind her. Although the Dragon Ascension Nest most likely does not know about him and The existence of the Endless Tower, but Ganon could fully imagine what an ancient dragon would think after knowing the existence of the Endless Tower.
His imaginary enemies are basically at the national level. When the war begins, the state machinery is activated, while his side basically relies on his own combat effectiveness and the defense system of the Endless Tower, which always seems to be somewhat inadequate.
Stone can use the magic power stored in the Endless Tower to create a large number of golem clones, and can even create giant golems. However, the materials that make up the golem can basically only be extracted from the walls and foundations of the tower, and the quantity is always limited. upper limit.
In this regard, he cannot rely entirely on Mu Xia's support. It is still necessary to form a private army and build fortifications.
Ganon, who had fought against the Imperials several times and had memories of another world, naturally knew how important weapons were to an army. High-tech weapons could often have a dimensionality-reducing impact on the weapons of the old generation.
Fred has already innovated his own army in this era, and Ganon feels that if he wants to form an army, he should also acquire equipment if conditions permit.
"Well, I have indeed learned blacksmithing techniques and smelting legendary metals. If I have enough helpers and get some information, I can build a decent ordinary workshop to produce high-quality swords and armors. "Mora touched her chin, "As for the steam armor developed by the Empire..." "It really can't be made." This was something Ganon expected.
Instead, he was surprised that Mo La actually knew how to forge and smelt, and could even guide the establishment of a workshop.
After all, even if everyone in the world knows that dwarves are good at this kind of technology, not everyone is certainly good at it. Mora is a princess, so it is normal to know nothing about it. He only asked Mora for a while.
"Of course, I know a little bit about debugging and assembly. It's not realistic to start from scratch." Mo La shook her head.
"You, a princess, actually know so much?" Ganon was a little surprised.
You must know that Mo La has just grown up and is still a master-level warrior. Even with the blessing of elite education, it still requires a considerable amount of effort, and she has actually mastered so many additional techniques.
When this topic came up, the usually cheerful Mo La actually looked melancholy.
"Don't look at me eating, sleeping and playing here all day long. In fact, I used to work very hard. I was disliked by others because I was ugly and old, so I wanted to prove myself. Not only did I train hard as a warrior, I also studied the most advanced techniques
. After the empire cooperated with the Beishan Kingdom, I also tried to learn alchemy machinery with the empire's alchemists..." At
this point, Mo La suddenly laughed at herself: "Well, you have also seen the result. Decades of hard work were all negated just because of my appearance. In the eyes of that bastard old man in my family, the greatest achievement I could achieve was to marry a human pedophile aristocrat and exchange him for a mine... I Damn it. What a fool I was for wasting so much time seeking recognition as an asshole!" "
No, you're smart enough to realize in time that that position isn't worth the effort, and not everyone can see it. So thorough." Ganon commented.
Moura looked at Ganon in surprise: "Hey, I didn't expect you to be quite good at comforting people." "
I'm just telling the truth, and your efforts are not in vain. Effective hard work is worthy of admiration. Be honest. It's true that you are so powerful, it's a bit beyond my expectation. If you can help me build a good workshop, of course I will reward you well. You can consider the conditions carefully, as long as I can do it." Ganouen Look at Mo La seriously.
Mora blinked her eyes twice, laughed suddenly, then came over and nudged Ganouen with her elbow: "Haha, it seems that you are not only in good condition, but I know why those two girls are so devoted to you."
"Are you complimenting me?" Ganon raised his eyebrows.
"Of course." Mo La laughed loudly and patted Ganon on the back hard, "Okay, I can live comfortably here, and I will be willing to retire here. I will definitely help you with this, and I will come back later." Let me make a list of requirements for you, and we will get this project completed as soon as possible!"
