47~ Countdown~
To discern direction, use a compass...
This thing's manufacturing was relatively simple. It didn't require any superb forging techniques, so there was no need to import from Glaze Nation. She could directly have Qin Feng make it.
"You're saying this thing can indicate direction?"
General Qin was sowhat shocked. Just relying on this palm-sized thing, they could determine direction in Misty Great Forest?
"Yes, just rely on this."
The little Princess affird.
Qin Feng picked up the design drawing and looked it over, discovering there wasn't much technical content in it. Even the materials could be found casually.
However, magnetite originally had this kind of use? One could only say Princess Mo was worthy of being a top-tier master. She actually just made small modifications to improve the originally inconvenient-to-carry sinan into a more convenient and compact compass.
(PS/Author's Note: Please don't nitpick about this...)
She just drew out the compass's design structure... In her previous life, this could be bought casually on the roadside anywhere. Here it was blown up to mythical proportions...
"Then how do we resist the severe cold?"
"Glaze Nation has..."
Simply put, everything they needed to advance, Glaze Nation had complete production lines for. As long as the money was in place, demand wasn't a problem.
But General Qin was still very curious how the little Princess knew about these secret production lines of Glaze Nation.
"Of course I have my own clever calculations."
Simply put, it was the sa as saying nothing.
The Empress's strength holding her increased a bit.
"Then all these problems are solved. After conquering Northern Radiance Nation, what then? What about the follow-up?"
With Scarlet Phoenix Nation's current military strength, they didn't need to consider the problem of whether they could conquer it, but rather the problems of where to find supplies after conquering it and how to defend.
"Of course, directly find the local lords~"
According to what she knew, the Northern Radiance Nation currently had a system similar to feudalism. Apart from the main city, each lord governed a city. They just needed to "borrow" so things from these lords to use.
After Northern Radiance Nation's imperial family fell, political power would definitely transfer. Taking the opportunity to seize Northern Radiance Nation's political power would allow them to truly control Northern Radiance Nation.
"But what is your reason and motive for prioritizing conquering Northern Radiance Nation?"
"Settle troops. After conquering it, send more troops to garrison. When the ti is ripe, it will be cheese sandwiched from both sides."
It sounded reliable, but thinking carefully, it seed not very realistic. Pulling the battle line so far, wouldn't the dispatched troops be intercepted midway?
"Have you ever heard of drowning everything with a torrent of steel?"
Saying this, several people were confused, not knowing what the little Princess wanted to express.
"With this, transporting by sea, no one dares to intercept."
It was a cannon. Artillery. But not the modern kind of artillery. It looked more like an oversized flintlock musket. The projectile was enlarged dozens of tis into a heavy cannonball, relying on the impact force produced by gunpowder exploding in an enclosed space to push it out to strike enemy ships.
"......"
Facing technological crushing, all these problems would beco non-problems. Mariti military transport was easy to intercept? Then use artillery! Let the enemy sink before they even get close!
Facing this kind of almost dinsional strike weapon, getting close to their ships was fundantally impossible! Under absolute strength, all resistance was just futile!
General Qin had nothing to say. He was already filled with admiration.
Princess Mo not only had unparalleled talent in military affairs, she was also unmatched in weapons research and developnt. She was simply like a divine person descended from heaven.
"Then I have no more doubts. Please forgive Qin's earlier improper words, Your Highness."
"It doesn't matter."
The little Princess waved her hand.
Next, they just needed to recuperate for a period, place large orders to Glaze Nation, wait for equipnt manufacturing to be completed and sent over, then fight while waiting for Scarlet Phoenix Nation to mass-produce artillery.
......
......
Before long, Gong received Scarlet Phoenix Nation's large batch orders and a letter in his daughter's handwriting. He rubbed his eyes.
He wasn't seeing wrong, right? Scarlet Phoenix Nation was actually purchasing equipnt in large quantities externally?
For ordinary nations, this might be very normal. His Glaze Nation often received orders to purchase equipnt. But Scarlet Phoenix Nation was a bit absurd. Scarlet Phoenix Nation, which never purchased equipnt from other nations, was now placing large orders... Even what they purchased before was raw ore and mining rights.
Because of their bad reputation, no nation would accept Scarlet Phoenix Nation's equipnt orders. So Scarlet Phoenix Nation had its own large-scale equipnt production lines. Yet now they were purchasing equipnt from Glaze Nation...
They all looked like equipnt resisting miasma and warming fire talismans for keeping warm. Did they want to advance from Misty Great Forest?
However, this purchase price exceeding normal prices was really tempting. After deducting the cost, they could still earn seventy percent profit. For a rchant, this was already an enormously profitable deal!
Although lower than market price, don't forget his Glaze Nation possessed complete production lines. They just needed to expand the scale...
"Xiao Xi, go summon the ministers. I want to announce sothing."
"Yes."
......
Very soon, the production lines were expanded to considerable scale for mass production, at approximately the speed of producing five hundred pieces per day. This was already the speed after mobilizing craftsn and enchanters from other production lines. Fortunately, the quantity Scarlet Phoenix Nation needed wasn't particularly large. Fifteen thousand pieces total. They could complete this batch of orders in one month.
......
On the other side, after receiving her father the king's letter, the little Princess was sowhat restless.
Congratulating her in advance on her eighteenth birthday one month later... One month later she would co of age!
Now detained in Scarlet Phoenix Nation for the second month, only one month remained until she ca of age!
The little Princess vaguely still rembered the Empress said that after she ca of age, she would pluck that full ripe fruit... To be honest, ti was approaching second by second. The countdown had already begun. She was starting to panic!
"Mo."
The startled little Princess shivered sharply. Even her speech was sowhat trembling.
"What's wrong with you? Are you uncomfortable anywhere?"
Hearing the Empress ca to care about her, she was temporarily sowhat relieved.
"No, just thinking about sothing."
She was thinking about what to do one month later...
What to do? Escape? She fundantally couldn't escape... Then make demands? Laughable. The Empress, as the "master" side of the pet contract, could make her do anything with a random command. Making demands fundantally wouldn't work.
Thinking left and right, there was fundantally no way to avoid what would happen one month later. A trace of despair had already arisen in her heart.
Since she couldn't escape, might as well enjoy it?
As soon as this thought erged, the little Princess was scared by her own dangerous thought. How could she have such a thought? That was the hentai Empress!
"In less than one month, it will be Mo's eighteenth birthday, right~? I'm very much looking forward to that day."
After the Empress finished speaking, she licked her lips, extended her hand to pinch her small face, looking like she had her completely in hand.
Little Princess: "!!!"
