How to Save Humanity After Transmigrating into a Villainess Princess? Chapter 155
However, at the end of the communication, Elashia didn't ask much and agreed to Alexandra's request.
Because she knew—this reliable Iron Empress would absolutely never waste her resources!
Moreover, those Magic Crossbow production lines weren't actually set up for the Elasian Imperial Guard.
Originally, the production of those Magic Crossbows existed to support the Iron Empire.
Because for the current Elasia, the number of Magic Crossbows was actually sowhat excessive.
Plus, with the now greatly accelerated production lines continuously producing new Magic Crossbows, the surplus of Magic Crossbows was even greater.
After all, Elasia only had three thousand units capable of using [Qi], and Elasia couldn't possibly have the entire knight order participate in Magic Crossbow shooting.
Because if all the knights capable of using [Qi] in combat lost their fighting ability, then the Elasian Imperial Guard would completely lose close combat capability.
After all, in actual combat, Elashia couldn't possibly turn all high-end combat forces into disposable forces.
No matter what, Elasia needed to keep a thousand knights to deal with subsequent dangers.
So in an actual battle, the knight order could fire at most two hundred Magic Crossbow shots.
Corresponding to this ammunition capacity, Elasia only truly needed fifty Magic Crossbows to be sufficient.
Currently, Elasia possessed a full sixty-seven Magic Crossbows, and new Magic Crossbows were still being produced from the production lines every week.
So providing so Magic Crossbows to aid the Iron Empire indeed had no impact on Elasia.
After cutting off the communication, Candice asked Elashia with so confusion:
"Your Majesty, why do you agree to whatever she says?"
Candice really didn't understand—why would Elashia, who had only t Alexandra a few tis, trust Alexandra so much?
In the contract just now, Elasia would imdiately provide the Iron Empire with a full 450,000 gold coins, thirty Magic Crossbows, and one [Demon-Slaying Blade].
Moreover, Elasia would later need to gradually provide the Iron Empire with a full 400,000 tons of grain!
Originally, Alexandra said only ten Magic Crossbows would be enough, but under Elashia's insistence, this number had tripled!
It was as if she treated Alexandra like her mother... oh wait, Alexandra really was her mother.
Candice didn't think Alexandra was untrustworthy, she just felt it was strange that Elashia had established trust with Alexandra so quickly.
Elashia smiled mysteriously.
"Aunt, please rest assured. When it cos to such crucial matters, Mother will definitely not disappoint us!"
......
After cutting off the communication, Alexandra stood up and walked to the map hanging on the palace wall, pointing her slender jade finger to the border between the Iron Empire and the demon race.
That slender jade finger lingered on the border line, then traced several lines on the map.
Her pale jade finger danced on the map as elegantly and naturally as if performing a waltz.
However, this waltz soon ended.
Because this jade finger finally stopped at the location of the Demon Capital.
Alexandra, having quickly determined her battle plan, once again showed her signature playful smile.
Demon Lord Karen?
Hehe.
If the Demon Capital could fall once, it could fall countless tis.
However... this might very well be the last ti...
She really looked forward to seeing how the Demon Lord would look before dying this ti...
Alexandra's lips curved up with her pleasant mood.
Ever since the Demon Capital was breached by Alexandra a hundred years ago and the Demon Lord of that ti died by her hand, this new Demon Lord, to avoid becoming Alexandra's next victim, specifically spent enormous resources to have Blood Clan craftsn traverse the dangerous Northern Forest to reach the Demon Capital, using Blood Clan's sturdy materials to build them a new city wall.
However... she didn't know if this wall could withstand catapults, but it definitely couldn't withstand continuous intense explosions!
No matter how good the quality of this wall was, how many explosions of that level could it withstand?
After the communication with Elashia ended, Alexandra understood—the opportunity she had waited years for had co!
Although in the prophecy of the [Forbidden Book], the Iron Empire could only fight a defensive battle.
But now, the Iron Empire had been directly influenced by Elashia!
And as long as there was a relationship with Elashia, the prophecy could very likely be changed!
Then she, Alexandra, could make a grand gamble!
Now the Iron Empire governnt had acquired a huge sum of money, which could be used to mass-produce newly developed anti-demon weapons!
The demon race had a relatively huge advantage over humans.
Magic essence was an important component of demon bodies, so they naturally possessed a certain amount of magic essence in their bodies.
Due to the goddess's blessing during creation, almost every demon combat unit was born with a magic shield.
This shield would only disappear after the magic power in the demon's body was exhausted.
So for human combat units to harm demons, they first had to break through the demons' shields.
Although the Iron Empire had recently developed materials that could penetrate demon shields and directly damage demon bodies, the cost of these materials was truly prohibitive.
Just making a standard long sword with this material would cost at least 5 gold coins.
While ordinary long swords in the Iron Empire cost only ten silver coins.
In other words, the resources to arm one soldier specifically targeting demons could arm 50 ordinary soldiers!
This made anti-demon weapons seem very impractical.
It would be better to use that money for further military expansion.
However, now the Iron Empire's army numbers were completely sufficient, plus with the 400,000 gold coins given by her good daughter, mass production and use of anti-demon weapons had beco possible!
Although it was impossible to arm every soldier with such extrely expensive weapons, using them to fully equip the most elite troops with complete anti-demon equipnt was entirely feasible!
Looking at the Demon Capital's location on the map, Alexandra showed a sowhat cruel smile.
She knew that Demon Lord Karen, having just acquired the [Holy Sword] not long ago, must be full of confidence now.
Otherwise, it couldn't possibly dare to mobilize the demon race's entire army to attack the Iron Empire.
So it would definitely not avoid battle when facing the Iron Empire's attack.
Facing the Iron army that had long been prepared, the demon race would inevitably suffer several major defeats.
After several major defeats, Demon Lord Karen would finally stockpile all of the demon race's vital forces in the Demon Capital.
Because it believed the Iron Empire definitely didn't have the ability to capture this fortified city.
And as long as the Iron Empire's 200,000 troops surrounded this city completely, then used Magic Crossbows to bombard the walls day and night...
This way, she could trap and kill all of the demon race's vital forces in the Demon Capital!
