While the northern army was preparing for battle, the Sack Kingdom's army to the north of the Muerto Mountains naturally wasn't idle.
His highness Eric didn't hide his intention to lead the northern army to attack the Sack Kingdom at all, so naturally it couldn't escape the Sack Kingdom's eyes.
Even if the Sack Kingdom always had the absolute advantage over the Lampari Kingdom, the Sack Kingdom didn't dare underestimate this rare counterattack from the Lampari Kingdom.
Because his highness Eric had obtained the support of many large nobles in the Lampari Kingdom, his strength far surpassed the northern army that had fought the Sack Kingdom's Hungry Wolf Regiment. Adding in the fact that the northern army had displayed a powerful battle strength in their counterattack on the Muerto Mountains last year, even forcing the Sack Kingdom to give up the Muerto Mountains.
If this year's northern army had such a powerful battle strength, adding in the powerful logistical support of his highness Eric with the support of many large nobles, the Sack Kingdom definitely wouldn't be able to resist them.
But for the Hungry Wolf Regiment's commander Chalon Linear, there was a decisive piece of good news.
It was that through the reports, because the New Flyer's chairman Xu Yi had expressed his support for her highness Seveni a month ago, in order to show that he had a different stance, his highness Eric had refused to purchase soldiers and military magic machines from the New Flyer.
In the current northern army, other than the military magic machines they bought last year, there were some military magic machines that the Lampari Kingdom's army headquarters had bought from the New Flyer and given to the northern army.
The Lampari Kingdom's army headquarters had always been poor and adding in the fact that the Lampari Kingdom's king Lampuri Thirteenth had always been very greedy towards his highness Eric's counterattack, the army headquarters didn't give the northern army that many military magic machines, so it couldn't increase the battle strength of the northern army.
Commander Linear's greatest worry for the northern army came from these mysterious military magic machines, especially those powerful Magic Trebuchets, which he still couldn't find a way to deal with.
If Prince Eric relied on the full support of those large nobles to equip the northern army and his other troops with military magic machines, Linear didn't even have the confidence to resist.
"Haha, it's a good thing that this prince is an idiot. Talking about different sides in a war is simply breaking one's own hands and feet!" Linear slapped the map on the table and laughed loudly.
"When this idiot leads the poor Northern Army here, brothers, we must teach them a lesson and avenge last year!"
The other officers of the Hungry Wolf Legion in the meeting room cheered.
Seeing the morale of his colleagues high, Linear nodded with satisfaction.
Although they were caught off guard by the Lampari Kingdom's Northern Battlefront Army last year and even lost the Muerto Mountains.
But because they had the absolute advantage over the Lampari Kingdom for a long time, the Sack Kingdom, especially the soldiers of the Hungry Wolf Regiment, had a sense of superiority over the Lampari Kingdom.
Their defeat last year made everyone's fighting spirit even higher and they vowed to wash away the shame of last year in this battle.
After discussing the details of the defense with a few of his subordinates, Chief of Staff Ivy Joao opened the door and walked in.
Following behind him were a few of his personal guards.
Linear's eyes couldn't help being attracted by the thing that Joao's personal guard was holding.
"What is this thing?"
Seeing the square thing in the guard's hand that looked like a box wrapped in iron that was glowing with silver light, Linear asked in a surprised voice.
"Good thing."
Joao revealed a faint smile. He had the guard place the iron box on an iron shelf on the wall of the room before taking out a small, white rectangular box made of an unknown material from his pocket. He asked Linear, "Hey, Linear, do you feel hot or cold in this room?"
Linear was even more confused, "What do you want to do?"
"You'll know in a moment." Joao shook the small white box in his hand.
Joao waved his hand, "Tell me first, do you feel hot or cold?"
Linear knit his brows and looked at Joao with a bit of confusion.
But he had worked with Joao for many years and he definitely wasn't someone who fooled around, so after thinking about it, he pulled his collar a bit.
"There are too many people in this room, I feel a bit stuffy, so it's a bit hot."
"Hot, right?" Joao turned to look at the others in the room.
"What about you?
Do you also feel hot? "
The others all nodded.
There were over ten large men in this small room and adding in the fact that it was early spring, the weather had already warmed up, so naturally they felt a bit hot.
"Alright, since it's hot, we need to cool it down a bit.
Let me see … how does the refrigeration work … "Joao looked at the rectangular white box in his hand for a while, fiddling with it for a while. Then, he pointed it at the iron box hanging on the wall and pressed it gently.
"Ding."
With a soft, clear, and pleasant sound, the iron box on the wall suddenly lit up with a bit of red light. Then in front of everyone, the bottom half of the iron sheet slowly moved up and revealed a dark hole.
Just as everyone was wondering, a red ribbon hanging from the bottom of the opened iron sheet suddenly fluttered, as if it was suddenly blown by the wind. Then, everyone felt a cool breeze hit them in the face, immediately dispersing the stuffy heat in everyone's body.
Feeling the cool breeze coming from the iron box, Linear's heart skipped a beat as he asked Joao, "Hey, Joao, this thing ….. It wouldn't be that Magic Air Conditioner, right?
I remember mentioning it in the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's report last time. "
"That's right, it's the Magic Air Conditioner."
Joao nodded with a smile, "How is it?
Do you feel much better? "
"It does feel much better, but where did you get this thing?" Linear asked with knit brows.
"It's impossible for the New Flyer to come to our Sack Kingdom to sell things, right?"
Joao looked at him and didn't reply. He put away the white box in his hand and looked over the others in the room.
The others understood his meaning and after giving a bow to the two of them, they left.
Seeing Joao's actions, Linear knit his brows even more. After the others left, he immediately asked, "What is it?
Is there a problem with the origin of this Magic Air Conditioner? "
"Of course." Joao nodded.
Joao nodded, "If there isn't a problem, how could this thing from the New Flyer appear here?"
"That's right … …" Linear reacted and after thinking about it, he asked, "Then where did this thing come from?
If my guesses aren't wrong, it should be those damn merchants who smuggled it from the Lampari Kingdom, right? "
"It is indeed smuggled, but you can't look down on those merchants this time.
If it wasn't for their help, we wouldn't have been able to obtain such easy to use magic machines from the New Flyer.
Could it be that you don't think that this Magic Air Conditioner is very good? "
Linear looked at the Magic Air Conditioner on the wall that was blowing cool air before looking at the white box that Joao had placed on the table that should be the remote control. He shook his head, "It is easy to use, but these things aren't necessary for us.
Rather if we smuggle New Flyer's things, wouldn't we be letting New Flyer earn money?
There aren't any benefits to this. "
"What?
You want to call on the entire kingdom to boycott the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's products? "Joao looked at Linear and gave a laugh.
Linear looked at Joao with a sneer, "Let me tell you, that's impossible.
Chairman Walker who gave this Magic Air Conditioner to me said that these New Flyer household magic machines that he smuggled from the Lampari Kingdom were all sold out a month ahead of time.
He just needs to transport these goods back and he will earn a large amount. "
Linear gave a strong snort, "He only cares about making money for himself, but he never thought that he would also be making money for New Flyer?
If it was up to me, he would be helping the enemy commit treason! "
Joao gave a sigh and slowly shook his head, "You shouldn't be so narrow minded.
Actually, we can also obtain many benefits from this.
Think about it, those military magic machines are produced by New Flyer and those household magic machines are also produced by New Flyer.
After obtaining these household magic machines, perhaps those old men of the magic academy can obtain some inspiration from these household magic machines, which will be very helpful to them in developing the military magic machines. "
"What?
This is the arrangement of the army headquarters? "Linear asked back.
"Yes." Joao nodded in confirmation.
Joao nodded, "Other than importing a batch of New Flyer goods, allowing the magic academy to obtain some research materials, we can also directly contact New Flyer through these transactions.
You don't need me to tell you what benefits you can obtain from this, right? "
Linear thought for a bit before giving a nod.
"Alright, I can understand the arrangements of the army headquarters.
But according to what you just said, there are many people in the kingdom who want to buy the Frestech Chamber of Commerce's household magic machines. Wouldn't the Frestech Chamber of Commerce take a large amount of money from them?
This doesn't seem good no matter how you look at it, right? "
Joao gave a shrug, "There's no other way, New Flyer's things are just that easy to use.
Not to mention them, even I'm moved.
Right, I'm planning on having chairman Walker bring some New Flyer's magic machines to our army next time, I just don't know if he can get them or not. "
Linear was surprised, "What do we need those household magic machines for?
No, I don't agree! "
"Don't reject it so quickly." Joao smiled and took out a piece of paper from his bosom.
Joao revealed a faint smile, "Look, this is an introduction to the various magic machines produced by New Flyer.
Look, perhaps the Magic Air Conditioner doesn't need to be equipped by the entire army, but I think we should get at least ten thousand of these Magic Lamps, right?
Because it's easy to turn them on and off, there's no need to make a fire. It just needs a few Magic Crystals to last for a long time … … "
"There's also this Magic Refrigerator.
It's almost summer, so the army headquarters' logistics department needs to transport the meat and vegetables ahead of time. They need to be transported every once in a while, so it costs quite a bit on the road.
If we have this Magic Refrigerator, we can store it for a bit longer and save quite a bit on transport costs. "
"Speaking of transport, look at this transport Magic Car.
This thing can carry several tons of cargo, it's the same as several large horse carriages.
Moreover, this thing is much sturdier and faster than horse carriages.
If the logistics department uses this transport Magic Car, we won't need to worry about logistics in the future.
Of course, this thing is too big, so it wouldn't be easy to smuggle it in. "
"There's also this Magic Stove.
I feel that this thing is necessary.
Because it doesn't need to be used, it can be used as a stove.
With the Magic Rice Cooker, it'll be countless times easier to make a fire.
Whether it is in the army or in the wild, it's very useful. "
"Of course, there's also this … …"
… …
Hearing Joao's introduction of the magic machines, although Linear was still struggling with the idea of "helping the enemy", he couldn't help being attracted by Joao's introduction.
Even if it was him, he had to admit it.
The magic machines the Frestech Chamber of Commerce made, they really were too damn easy to use!
