Volu 3 Chapter 30 The following of a shocking battle
Compared to Xu Yi, the other people were very satisfied with this victory, but they were shocked and in disbelief.
According to common sense, five thousand beastn warriors against less than two thousand human soldiers, even if there were two hundred elf warriors and three hundred dwarf warriors, it should have been one sided.
Even if the beastn didn’t have proper weapons or equipnt, decreasing their battle strength a bit, they should still have the advantage.
However, the victory in front of everyone was that only a hundred of the five thousand beastn escaped and the rest were wiped out.
On their side, only three human guards were heavily injured in the final short range combat and a hundred people were lightly injured. There wasn’t even a single casualty!
This kind of result, if one heard about it and didn’t experience it, no one would believe it. Even those that experienced this battle couldn’t completely believe it.
Everyone looked up at the four Magic Trebuchets. They all knew that being able to achieve this kind of result, the four Magic Trebuchets played the biggest role.
If they used the old trebuchets the army used, it would be impossible to defend because the old trebuchets were very inefficient in firing. It would have been pretty good if they could even fire one or two boulders as the beastn charged in.
These Magic Trebuchets fired a boulder less than every half a minute, with a firing range that was further than the old trebuchets, reaching a terrifying five hundred ters and even the beastn charging suffered from the Magic Trebuchets. It fired close to ten giant boulders and completely changed the scope of the battle.
The second greatest rit were the Magic Repeating Crossbows in the hands of the Frestech Chamber of Comrce’s guards.
These Magic Repeating Crossbows fired very quickly and they were very simple to fire. One just needed to install the arrow chest and then aim them before pulling the trigger. All of the twenty arrows inside a single arrow chest would be fired in less than half a minute.
The worse thing was that because the arrows in the Magic Repeating Crossbows were fired by Magic Arrays, their firing rate and distance were much better than normal bows.
A single Magic Repeating Crossbow didn’t seem like much, but with five hundred guards holding Magic Repeating Crossbows and everyone was provided with enough arrow chests, the firing of five hundred Magic Repeating Crossbows could be described as terrifying.
If four Magic Trebuchets had routed the formation of over five thousand beastn, the decisive factor was the continuous rain of arrows from the Magic Repeating Crossbow. They played the greatest role in killing the beastn.
As for the final close range combat, the reason why the guards of the four companies could fight so well was because the armour and weapons provided by the Frestech Chamber of Comrce were too good.
According to the appraisal of veteran guards, the weapons and armours they received from the Frestech Chamber of Comrce was even better than the weapons and armours from the best blacksmiths.
So in summary, the reason why they were about to achieve this victory that almost no one dared believe in this disparate situation was all because of the difference in equipnt.
But even with this kind of shocking victory, Xu Yi who was the most important person in achieving this victory had a frown like he wasn’t satisfied.
Chairman Cruise and chairman Renersa couldn’t help asking Xu Yi why he was dissatisfied and Xu Yi replied after thinking, “My original thought was to kill all the beastn before they could charge in, but there were still a thousand beastn who ca in. If there were a bit more of them, it wouldn’t have been as easy to take care of them.”
The two rolled their eyes at Xu Yi.
You wanted to kill them all before the beastn could charge in? How was this possible, the beastn weren’t dumb enough to stand there and let you kill them, right?”
Seeing the looks of disbelief on their faces, Xu Yi looked at them with disdain.
Humph, these inexperienced fellows. If they knew that the armies on earth could eliminate enemies from thousands of kiloters away, wouldn’t they faint in fear?
After the battle was over, achieving this shocking victory ant that the joint operations of the four companies was a great success.
The reason why they laid this trap, deliberately bringing a large amount of cargo onto the Black Rice Wasteland in this dangerous situation was to lure in the beastn who had strong hostility against humans, led by the Beastn Independence Regint out. They would defeat them and solve the problems that the four companies would et here at once.
They believed that with the power the four companies demonstrated, there shouldn’t be any blind beastn on the Black Rice Wasteland who would challenge the four companies. It would make the future factories of the four companies set up here in the future much more secure.
Of course, to Xu Yi, the best thod to peace wasn’t slaughter, but rather cooperation.
As long as the beastn of the Black Rice Wasteland realized that they could live better lives by cooperating with humans, then he believed the beastn would cause trouble for the human rchants in the future.
But most of the beastn revered experts and only by displaying his strength could the four companies smoothly invest in the Black Rice Wasteland. So Xu Yi didn’t mind showing his powerful strength in this operation, routing all the resistance of the beastn in one fell swoop.
Facts proved that the effects of doing this were quite good.
In the following days, when the caravans of the four companies began constructing their production base, there wasn’t a single blind beastn who dared do anything. The four beastn tribes that were cooperating with the four companies sent out beastn to assist the workers finish their construction.
After seeing the change in the lives of the Voller Tribe, these beastn were filled with expectations and hope for this life. They wanted to fill their stomachs and wear clothes as soon as possible.
While construction was being held fifty kiloters into the Black Rice Wasteland, Xu Yi left this place and went to inspect the mine and the Frestech Chamber of Comrce’s non-ferrous slting factory by the Voller Tribe.
The mine was operating normally, being able to bring out over twenty tons of non-ferrous tal ores a day and there was nothing to worry about.
But there was so hindrance in the operation of the non-ferrous slting factory.
Although slting non-ferrous tals seed like slting steel on the surface, the concrete operations were different.
Xu Yi didn’t specialize in slting non-ferrous tal, so he could only use so reference from when he inspected non-ferrous tal slting factories on earth. The rest would be solved by the workers of the factory.
It was a good thing that while the Frestech Chamber of Comrce lacked things, they didn’t lack dwarfs who were skilled in slting tals.
When Xu Yi opened this non-ferrous slting factory, he had sent close to three hundred dwarf workers and five hundred human workers who had experience working in the Falling Rain Valley slting factories, to ensure that this non-ferrous slting factory could start producing as soon as possible.
Although currently speaking, the non-ferrous tal slting technology hadn’t been fully developed, with the dwarf workers with their rich experience, they made progress quite fast. He believed that by the end of the year, they could finish slting non-ferrous tals according to his requests.
If this non-ferrous slting factory could finish their research, it ant that the Frestech Chamber of Comrce would have large amounts of non-ferrous tals to work with, speeding up their research and developing many products. There was also another important strategic significance, which was the non-ferrous tal mines that he had established with the Falcao Chamber of Comrce in the Lampuri Kingdom.
According to the investigations of the dwarves, the Lampuri Kingdom wasn’t rich in iron, but it was very rich in non-ferrous tals.
For modern industry, steel was the most important material, but non-ferrous tal was also indispensable and wasn’t as readily available as iron.
So based on this, the Lampuri Kingdom had a natural advantage in resources.
Of course, that was all very far into the future.
Currently speaking, the investnt that the Frestech Chamber of Comrce made into the mine and slting factory near the Voller Tribe didn’t make them any profits at all right now.
But Xu Yi wasn’t in a rush. Establishing a magic machine industrial system was a mammoth task, it couldn’t be rushed at all.
As a chanical engineer, he was much more patient compared to others.
Not to ntion that the Frestech Chamber of Comrce was operating very smoothly right now. Because of the popularization of magic machines, although they spent quite a lot, the Frestech Chamber of Comrce could easily deal with it with their finances.
The only problem was probably the Lampuri Kingdom’s internal political struggles.
As for this, Xu Yi couldn’t think of a single solution.
Although he had risen in the ranks of the Lampuri Kingdom nobles, he was still far from being able to ddle in the higher political situation of the Lampuri Kingdom.
Of course, this didn’t an that he was unable to support Seveni.
Rather, he was able to support her quite a bit.
Thinking of this, Xu Yi revealed a confident smile.
If the Lampuri Kingdom didn’t taste any benefits, he wouldn’t have been able to affect anything, but now that the army headquarters had tasted the easy victory of the Muerto Mountains, Xu Yi believed that they wouldn’t remain aloof.
