Prince Ivanovich was defeated?
Mawei stopped the newsboy, spent 10 kopecks to buy the latest "Contemporary" newspaper, walked into the church, and read it carefully.
The headline on the front page was about the latest battle situation on the front line. It said that yesterday morning, Duke Yinvanovich led five armies to launch an attack on the city of Ulian east of the Volga River, hoping to defeat the first army stationed there in one fell swoop. Group Army, this is a surprise attack, but what no one expected is...
The first group army, which had been retreating steadily and refused to engage in a head-on battle, actually adopted a tough stance for the first time. They changed their previous tactics and set up a defense line outside the city. If this was the case, Duke Yinvanovich would not be able to The disastrous defeat was mainly because the enemy came up with a new type of weapon.
A firearm that fires continuously.
Although the war was lost, Duke Yinvanovich still recaptured a new weapon used by the enemy. According to the description of the reporter accompanying the army, it was a strange gun mounted on a cart. The barrel was very long and thick, and it was ten meters long. The hole for firing bullets is completely different from the rifle used by soldiers. It is a repeating weapon that has never appeared before.
Its firepower completely crushes the 'Edward 1' repeating rifle. According to tests, the rate of fire can reach a terrifying 300 rounds per minute. It is a firepower unmatched by any current firearm.
The enemy called this firearm the 'Richard Rapid Fire Weapon', and its inventor was a doctor.
"The Kingdom of Windsor actually invented such a terrifying weapon?!" The message was shocked: "This is more terrifying than the repeating rifle invented by Edward! No wonder Duke Yinvanovich was defeated miserably!"
Junia noticed Ma Wei with a gloomy face and asked curiously: "Dad, what's wrong with you?"
"This gun...forget it, it's nothing."
Ma Wei hesitated to speak. Of course he knew this kind of repeating firearm. Not only did he know it, he could also clearly tell the origin of this gun.
But the problem is...
This kind of machine gun does not match the time of its appearance in his memory!
Is it because the world is different?
Ma Wei has long known that the world he traveled to is not the Earth he remembers. Although the two worlds are different, the technological lines and timelines are still very close. Now weapons that may only appear in a year or two suddenly appear. Ma Wei had to have many associations.
Is the emergence of Richard's rotating machine gun an accident, or is it related to tampered history?
There is no doubt that if the real history is changed, it will have a great impact on reality.
In the past, Ma Wei didn't care about these small changes. After all, the world is different, and differences in all aspects are expected. Things that are exactly the same do not exist.
But since he learned that the Free Association and the forces behind the scenes began to tamper with the truth, many things gradually attracted his attention.
It may all be accidental, or it may not.
"How much impact will this new weapon have on the Romanov Kingdom?" Fat Orange asked: "With such powerful firearms, the Kingdom of Windsor will definitely launch a counterattack again, and the originally clear situation will change again. ..."
"No, the retreat of the Kingdom of Windsor is a foregone conclusion." Ma Wei shook his head and said: "If they plan to continue to counterattack, then they should not retreat continuously. With the Immortal Domain, their soldiers will not lose too much. They will retreat again and again. If they retreat, it can only be said that they have no idea of continuing this war.”
"Then why do they still bring out this new weapon? Isn't it bad to use it as a trump card?" Daniel didn't understand very much.
"This should be a deterrent." Mavey said thoughtfully: "The Windsor Kingdom has brought out such a powerful weapon, probably to frighten the Romanov Kingdom. Duke Yinvanovich, who has experienced a disastrous defeat, will not dare to do so in a short time. Launching another large-scale attack will create an opportunity for the soldiers of the Kingdom of Windsor to retreat."
"Otherwise, the Romanov Kingdom will bite the First Army, just like a pack of hungry wolves, which will cause a lot of trouble to the enemy. Soldiers from the Windsor Kingdom need the help of the Royal Navy if they want to return home, and it will take time to board the ship. , if the Romanov Kingdom launches a full-scale attack at this time, I don’t know how many people will die.”
"Under such circumstances, it is necessary to bring out new weapons to deter the enemy. Ensuring that the First and Second Group Armies can safely return to the island and retain their vitality is the top priority for senior leaders."
Lai Wen and Daniel looked at each other in surprise, "So, the war will end soon?"
"Um."
Ma Wei took a deep breath and said in a deep voice: "After the Windsor Kingdom retreats, there will be a battle for the throne. Katerina has accumulated enough prestige in this war. Her name has spread throughout the Romanov Kingdom, and the people regard her as As the God of War, on the other hand, Paul I did not achieve much."
"There is still a tough battle to fight next, so be prepared."
Everyone looked stern, knowing what Ma Wei meant by the tough battle.
Katerina, whose prestige is at its peak, seems to have surpassed King Paul I, the so-called master of great achievements.
After defeating the Kingdom of Windsor and regaining all the lost territory, the next step...
It was time for civil war.
This is not only a battle between Katerina and Paul I, but also a battle between the Church of Wisdom and the Church of Truth.
The final winner can become the ruler of the Romanov Kingdom and establish a stable political power.
"The Kingdom of Windsor will still disgust us in the end..."
Putting down the newspaper, Ma Wei said quietly: "They gave a Richard rotary machine gun to Duke Yinvanovich. With the finished product, the craftsmen can imitate similar weapons as quickly as possible... They must hate me very much."
"Hate you?" The message blinked: "Who hates you?"
"Of course they are the high-ranking officials of the Kingdom of Windsor... Don't forget the impact the Church of Truth has had on them. They regard me as a traitor, and traitors... are the most hateful."
Daniel thought for a moment and said, "Teacher, if you don't mind, I can write to my father and ask him to send troops to support the Church of Truth."
"This is a civil war, Daniel." Ma Wei glanced at him: "A civil war does not require external intervention. If we accept the help of the Kingdom of Frederick, then Paul I can also ask for support from the Kingdom of Poppont. This is a taboo ,do you understand?"
Daniel nodded in understanding.
"I think the Wisdom Cult has already started making preparations, and we don't have much time left... In the letter, do you still remember what I said before about establishing a special organization similar to the Demon Hunters of the Church of the Three Goddess of Destiny?"
"Remember."
"I want you to lead this organization."
"Me?" Lai Wen's eyes widened: "Boss, are you kidding me?"
"Do you think I'm kidding?"
Ma Wei's face was expressionless and his eyes were serious: "This is the conclusion I came to after careful consideration. Fat Orange will be in charge of the cat army, Edward will be busy establishing the vampire's settlement, and Salina, Christopher, and Dino are not fighting The staff doesn’t have enough experience, but you are the only one with first-class skills and still very idle.”
If we talk about the technique of escaping... no, art, I am indeed first-class... leisure is redundant...
Lai Wen took out a small bottle and took a sip, grinned and said: "I'm actually just a handyman, I can only do some shady things... But since boss, you insist on letting me lead the special organization, then I’ll just give it a try, and if it doesn’t work, you can replace it with someone else.”
"Very good, then let's receive special training starting tomorrow."
"Okay...wait a minute!" Laiwen felt a bad feeling in his heart: "What special training?!"
Ma Weidan said calmly: "Special training in fighting skills. You are too weak in fighting. You need training."
"Please! This is the age of magic. What fighting skills are there to talk about? Isn't it better to fight directly with magic?!"
"Magic is indeed the mainstream in combat, but fighting technology will never be outdated. Even on the battlefield, soldiers who run fast and move quickly have a higher survival rate than other soldiers."
"When it comes to escaping and agility, I am not inferior to anyone!"
"Yeah?"
Ma Wei grabbed the caller's thumb, locked it with one joint, and clamped him down: "Tell me, how do you get out when you can't use magic?"
"It hurts, it hurts! Don't use so much force!" Laiwen screamed, directly activated the heart of the jungle, teleported, and broke away from Ma Wei's grasp.
He rubbed his aching thumb and pursed his lips and said, "Boss, please show me! How to get out of someone's thumb?"
"come here."
At Ma Wei's call, Lai Wen stepped forward, imitated Ma Wei's action just now, and clasped Ma Wei's thumb. Just when he was so proud that he thought Ma Wei couldn't break free...
Get stuck.
The thumb joint was twisted strangely. Ma Wei turned around forcefully, pulled out the revolver from his waist, and pressed it against the letter's chin at close range.
"Boss, you..."
"If it was a fight to the death, you would already be dead."
Ma Wei put down the revolver, held the thumb of his right hand, and reset the broken joint with a 'click' sound. There was no expression on his face, and he was frighteningly indifferent: "When fighting against weird extraordinary beings, don't have any luck, don't There should be no hesitation, let alone any kindness. This is the experience I learned when I served in the Royal Navy. Only the winners deserve to live, and the losers have no choice but to be thrown into the sea to feed the fish."
Lai Wen's cheek twitched twice, he rubbed his eyebrows and said, "Okay, okay, boss, you win, just train, who will teach me?"
"Your first teacher was Daniel."
"Him? Are you kidding me! Impossible! Absolutely impossible! How can he, a pampered nobleman, beat me!"
Daniel sneered and said: "Not all noble children are losers. The education they receive is more strict and cruel than you think. I have learned court swordsmanship since I was a child. Although I am not a talent, I can still fight five of you with no problem."
"..."
Without waiting for the letter to be rejected, Ma Wei made a final decision and said: "That's it. Starting from tomorrow, you will learn court swordsmanship from Daniel. When you finish learning, I will give you the experience of life and death fighting."
