But now, in the Tang Empire, such roads have connected every village and town, and everyone has become accustomed to such roads.
This kind of thing is so terrifying. Things that are not available in other countries, or are still rare, have become commonplace in the Tang Empire! This shows that the gap between countries is constantly widening.
The emperors of various countries thought that they were narrowing the gap in national power with the Tang Empire. In fact, what they didn't know was that the weapons and equipment they valued were probably the area where the gap between the two sides was smallest.
Where they didn't pay attention, the power of the Tang Empire was even more terrifying. This kind of accumulation of technology was absolutely leading. Only professionals could feel the pressure like a mountain.
For example, in the field of printing, the Tang Empire has begun to produce advanced copier equipment on a large scale. This thing is simply a revolution in the field of information technology.
In addition, advances in computer technology and industry in related fields have allowed computers to appear in various professional fields. Although it is still highly confidential, the use of computers in some key project teams of Datang Group is nothing new.
And these small details, a little bit of subtle technological progress, the accumulated invisible things are far more terrifying than hundreds of jet fighters.
Mirage Wenmao has become accustomed to tall human houses, and now he is completely from a Tang Dynasty perspective. So when he saw his office location, his mood immediately turned bad.
Because this is an old building, mottled bullet marks can still be seen on the outer walls. This was originally a noble house, and it was built quite solidly, so it was preserved during the war.
Its location is on the outskirts of Great South Bay. The Mirage Army used to serve as a bunker. However, the Mirage Army stationed here was defeated, and this building was able to be preserved relatively intact.
The demolition work has not progressed yet, so this low-rise building must continue to exert its residual heat: as the office of Mirage Wenmao, it will continue to exist for a while.
But Mirage Wenmao was unhappy: In the Tang Empire, his office was normal! With a lifting height of 2.3 meters, large bright glass windows, and a parking lot outside, there are nearly a thousand goblins moving nervously in a building.
This is really not an exaggeration. To manage hundreds of thousands of goblin slaves, it really requires a rather large organization.
This organization even has to manage goblin-specific hospitals, goblin's own independent courts, goblin's own prisons, goblin's own technical training system, canteens or field dining trucks, and an independent security management force.
Although Mirage Wuxiong is in charge of that army, everything else is controlled by Mirage Wenmao. To manage so many things, the team is naturally very large.
But now... what on earth is this damn cramped 2-meter raised room? Although he had no problem using it himself, he was no longer used to it!
Subconsciously, Xu Wenmao already regarded himself as a Tang Empire person...or even a dog of the Tang Empire! That is also a dog that wants to enjoy the benefits and treatment of the Tang Empire!
Therefore, he was still very dissatisfied with his new office location, but after all, it was arranged by the master of the Tang Empire, and he did not dare to lose his temper and show off his face.
So, full of resentment, he vented his dissatisfaction on the aborigines: "Bring me all the recent serious case files! Let the people who were responsible for managing these report to me!"
A subordinate stood at attention and saluted, using the military salute of the Tang Dynasty. This habit was developed in the prisoner-of-war camp of the Tang Empire and has not been changed since. It is still used nondescriptly to this day.
Mirage Wenmao grabbed the teacup and prepared to pour himself a cup of tea. This kind of work was previously done by servants, but unfortunately his servant could not follow him.
Looking at the tea cup, Mirage Wenmao almost dropped the cup on the ground: This cup has not been washed at all, and it is full of dust. It seems that it has been here for a long time.
Thinking about it, it has been ten months since the Tang Empire occupied this place. It is estimated that this cup has been here for several months.
After thinking about it, he finally didn't dare to throw the cup in his hand. After getting the file he wanted, Xu Wenmao randomly pulled out a few pictures from it: "Kill!"
"Yes!" His subordinates had long been accustomed to Mirage Wenmao's handling methods. After standing at attention and saluting, they left with the files Mirage Wenmao drew by lot.
They all know that this is a method that Mirage Wenmao often uses when he is in a bad mood: randomly pick out a few unlucky people from the serious case files and kill them directly.
No need to ask why.
This is why Mirage Wenmao has a bad reputation among goblin slaves, or this is why he can secure this position and make the officials of the Tang Empire trust him and be satisfied with him.
After his subordinates left, Xu Wenmao opened the file again and read the contents. He just came here, and of course he wanted to do something to establish his authority.
As the so-called three things for a new official to do when he takes office, Xu Wenmao quickly placed the first file on his right hand: Anyone who puts it here will be killed.
The reason why the case placed on the right is to be killed is entirely because Mirage Wenmao is right-handed and it is more convenient to put it on the right side. After all, most of the cases he had seen involved killings.
As I looked at it, the files on the right hand side gradually became thicker, but there were very few on the left hand side.
…
"Thud, tug, tug!" The familiar sound of the tearing machine echoed on the battlefield. Tracer bullets shuttled back and forth among the ruins, and the atmosphere was extremely tense.
While the orc machine gunner was waiting for the assistant shooter to hang up the ammunition belt, he held his helmet with his hand and saw through the gap the goblin troops hiding behind the obstacles and constantly poking their heads out to fire back.
Because the reserves are quite sufficient, the goblins have no shortage of ammunition for the time being. The two sides exchanged fierce firefights in the cool air, each trying to drive the other out of the area.
Due to the lack of field combat capabilities, they were unable to engage the orc troops outside the city. The goblins could only fight with the orcs in the mirage.
They fought on every street and on every block, over and over again for a building, a room, or even a wall.
A goblin soldier carrying a rifle and a bayonet on the muzzle was running quickly among the ruins. He lowered his body as much as possible to avoid bullets that might hit his head.
"Battal Commander! Battalion Commander! The orc troops are attacking again, and our company is almost unable to withstand it!" After bypassing the ruins, the soldier came to the headquarters of the infantry battalion to which his infantry company belonged, and asked for support: " We need support, weapons and ammunition... grenades, and medicine to stop the bleeding."
"I have no medicine here! Go back and tell your company commander! There is no medicine! Do you understand?" The goblin battalion commander grinned, and the old artillery next to him just fired a shell.
It would be nice to have some cannonballs. Do you want medical supplies? You think too much! The regiment headquarters may not even have such precious things as medicines!
As for why their camp has an old artillery piece? Then let’s talk about the preparations made by the Mirage Army to defend the Mirage City.
They took out all the rags they could find in the warehouse and distributed them to the troops. The main force has strengthened some firepower, and the second-class force has obtained a lot of heavy weapons to support operations.
At this moment, the goblin infantry battalion stationed on the position is a main battalion. They have been assigned a 75mm infantry cannon and some precious artillery shells.
Of course, the model of this artillery gun is too old. It is an early imitation of the Datang Group's 75-gun product by Cyric. Technically, it is completely out of date with the times.
But the Mirage Army no longer cares about so much, and they really use whatever they have. Anyway, the cannon shells have been discontinued, so we can only find some old stocks, and we can’t bear to part with them.

The supplement will be sent tomorrow morning, so don’t wait any longer.
