Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries

Such shocking news has spread rapidly within the empire, and even the two empires next door and the small countries in the realm of kings have learned about it.

Old Joseph, who was sitting next to Gudern, had a very wonderful expression when he received the news. Yesterday, he swore to the young master that he would definitely not be destined for the throne.

Unless all the candidates for the throne were dead, but now in the blink of an eye, the eldest prince suddenly fell, which caught him off guard...

Chapter 119 War preparation, magic truck

In the hall, everyone was stunned for a short time and then fell silent and looked at Gudern, waiting for his next task.

When the war started, Qingyuan Town was located on the border. Although it was a little remote and not a major conflict area, it still had to be prepared.

When gathering a group of them, it is impossible to just notify the war and end it hastily. There must be follow-up arrangements and preparations.

As everyone thought, after everyone calmed down, Gooden began to make preparations for this advance deployment.

"The war between the empire and the orcs has been anticipated for a long time, but now it is coming in advance. I have to announce something to you here so that you can be prepared."

"The predecessor of Snow Valley Ridge, the Charleson family, colluded with the orcs, provided iron and food, and hid an orc army in the surrounding territories."

"I and the Imperial Army had a convenient clearance once before and destroyed a hundred-man scout unit. However, according to the investigation, there should be an orc unit of more than a thousand people hiding, and no trace has been found so far."

Wow——

Except for Old Joseph, Kroger and two famous officers present, everyone else's expressions changed instantly when they heard the news.

More than a thousand troops were hiding in the surrounding territories. This news was really shocking to them.

You must know that this is an orc army, a hundred-man scout team that can wipe out a small town casually.

Seeing everyone in panic, Gudern calmly comforted them.

"The imperial military already knows about the problem of the orcs, but the preparations for the mobilization have not been completed yet. Now that the war starts, we don't know whether this team will appear appropriately. Before then, we must make preparations."

This was half true and half false. The imperial military did know that there was an orc troop lurking in.

As for the preparations for clearing the troops, that is purely Gudern's fabrication.

It's two different things for the military to know and prepare to clear it out. After all, the northern border stretches for thousands of kilometers, and an orc scout with hundreds or thousands of people just lurking on the border is not enough for them to take it seriously.

Unless this latent team reaches the level of 10,000 people, the higher-ups in the military will notice it and include it in preparations.

But when everyone heard that the imperial military knew about it and was prepared, the panic on everyone's faces relaxed a lot.

After all, being prepared and not being prepared are two different things, and then Gooden began to assign tasks.

"Although the empire is prepared, we still need to make some preventive preparations in advance. Qingyuan Town is located on the border. Although it is remote, we don't know whether the war will spread here. The worst case scenario has not yet occurred. We need to make preparations in advance.”

"The first is the military arrangement. The threat of orcs comes from the Yongshuang Mountains in the northwest and north. In order to avoid being raided by the orcs, three sentry tower lines need to be built in the direction of Yongshuang."

"A sentry tower line is fifty kilometers long, with one sentry tower every five kilometers, expanding outward. The army and construction engineering teams will work together. I need to see the completion of the sentry tower construction within a week."

"The specific mission information here has been prepared in preliminary plans and will be sent to you after the meeting."

"Yes." The two departments that received the task nodded.

Then Gooden looked at Hobert and continued to give instructions to the army.

"Hobert, starting now, you lead your team to the area outside the guard tower to conduct reconnaissance. Once you find any suspicious targets, you will send them to the guard tower."

"Understood." Hobert saluted and continued to listen silently.

"Captain Dedalo, as a member of the Jinyuan City troops, before you are transferred, I hope you can organize a group of people to patrol and inspect the iron ore routes to ensure road safety."

"No problem, Master Gudern." Dedalo nodded directly and agreed without hesitation.

Now Gudern is still his nominal second person in charge. This small task is not like Hobert's dangerous reconnaissance close to the Everfrost Mountains. It can be regarded as an easy task.

"Buck, the Engineering Research Institute is continuing to expand and select suitable personnel to join. Except for the automobile project, other projects have put down all their work and fully converted to armament research. The first phase of weapons research needs to be completed before next spring. "

The first phase of research work mentioned by Gooden is a complete set of weapons research, such as a full set of various weapons, fixed heavy support weapons, and artillery.

Given two months to make full arrangements, Gooden estimates that it should be almost done.

For Buck, completing these tasks in two months is not stressful. With this first military industry research, the institute has accumulated a lot of experience.

He was very confident about the development work in this area. After nodding in agreement, Gooden looked at the construction engineering team.

"Building the first and second teams, in addition to cooperating with the military headquarters' sentry tower construction work, the two sides have jointly begun to speed up the construction of the city wall. Now the construction situation is just short of the last part. Together with the two sides, I need to complete the construction of the city wall by the end of October. "

"this……"

The second team responsible for the construction of the city wall showed embarrassment when they heard that it needed to be completed within a month.

Although a team has joined, according to the normal construction schedule, it will not be completed until the end of November. But now it is one month ahead of schedule, and the amount of work has undoubtedly increased a lot.

Seeing the difficulty of the leader of the second team, Gooden continued.

"The project deadline is very tight, I know, but the city wall is the most critical step in protecting Qingyuan Town. The sooner it is completed, the safer it will be for us."

"As for the tight construction period, I will ask the General Affairs Department to issue an announcement and let the residents of the town work together to coordinate the construction. This should relieve you of some basic manpower pressure."

Seeing the young master's arrangement, the head of the second construction team also showed a firm look on his face and nodded.

"Understood, I promise to complete the construction of the city wall before the end of October!"

"Yes." Gooden nodded with satisfaction, and then looked at Kroger in the General Affairs Department.

Since Kroger joined Qingyuan Town as the head of the General Affairs Department, Gooden has noticed all the changes and adjustments in Qingyuan Town.

Gooden is also very pleased with this talent. Such a strong management talent can be regarded as solving the problem of detailed management for him.

It can be said that half of the credit for the stable and coordinated development of Qingyuan Town lies with Kroger.

"Kroger, you have to make more arrangements for the preparations in Qingyuan Town."

"In addition to preparing the evacuation plan for personnel assigned to the mining area, stocking up on food, allocating manpower, and hoarding materials, you have to arrange and take charge of it."

"Yes, I understand." Kroger nodded slightly. When war comes, Qingyuan Town must also make logistical preparations.

He had to arrange this task carefully to avoid mistakes.

"In addition, half of the production materials of all factories now need to be allocated for hoarding to avoid subsequent production shortages due to insufficient materials, especially iron problems, which require a large amount of hoarding."

After roughly arranging the tasks, Gudern also assigned some detailed tasks and everyone's feedback on the problems.

After the meeting lasted for more than half an hour, everyone came out of the castle and began to prepare for war.

After finishing the meeting, Gooden immediately plunged into research and began to prepare to research the magic car with all his strength.

Manganese ore, iron ore, asphalt, and saltpeter, these three mining areas are all more than thirty kilometers away from Qingyuan Town, and a normal round trip would take a day.

For Qingyuan Town, which is in urgent need of raw materials, this time is really too long.

In addition, this war is coming early. If traces of the orcs are found, the evacuees will need to be evacuated.

It is too slow to pass information and various transportation issues by personnel.

Gudern was afraid that he would not be able to make it in time, so he needed a faster means of transportation to help.

Although it is not impossible to use flying birds such as homing pigeons or magic eagles to convey magic, this thing also has certain limitations.

Although birds can also arrive, the time cannot be determined, and the magic eagle needs a magician to use the transmission, so there is no problem in sending it from Qingyuan Town.

But if you want to rely on the magic eagle to convey the message to Qingyuan Town, that won't work, and the magic eagle also needs a magic guidance mark to find the target.

After all, the magic eagle is magic, not a living thing. It has no independent consciousness. It relies on magic guidance marks to reach its destination. If it wants to convey a message, it must be transmitted between two magicians.

In addition to transportation issues, if the magic car can be obtained, Gudern can even establish an outpost in the border area of ​​​​Yongshuang Mountains for prevention work.

Anyway, if you can't beat them, you can still run away. Unless the opponent is chased by Master Chaofan himself, it will be difficult for the team to be wiped out.

…

The research work on the magic car was very fast. In just five days, Gooden upgraded the experimental version to develop a version that met his requirements and began testing.

For the appearance of the model car, Gooden studied and assembled it based on the structure of a truck.

After all, he needs a dual-purpose vehicle that can pull goods as well as people. A vehicle designed solely to pull people is of no use to him.

The experimental magic truck is 6.5 meters long and 2 meters wide from the front to the parking space. This is an open-air version without a cargo hold or cockpit.

Apart from the magic engine at the front of the car, the most complex equipment in the entire car is the mechanical shaft equipment at the bottom.

Apart from this, there are no other extra facilities. Even in the 'cockpit', there are only some simple and necessary control equipment.

The entire car is still an exposed and boxy structure. Such a strange metal monster has attracted the attention of many residents in the town.

Testing of the truck could not be carried out inside the castle, so the first tests could only be carried out on constructed stone roads.

Regarding the current favorability and loyalty of the town residents, Gooden no longer needs to hide and hide anything.

Gooden glanced at the residents casually, and their favorability or loyalty exceeded 80. He could even see many small town residents who exceeded 90.

Compared with the previous situation when he was less than 70 years old, his popularity among the people has risen a lot.

The first tester must be Gudern himself, and those who came to watch along with him were Helisha, Buck and others.

As Gudern switched on the magic engine, a slight running sound soon began. The sound was not loud, and it was mainly the sound of friction and collision caused by the operation of the machinery.

The truck's magic engine was upgraded from the original first version. After upgrading and modification, in addition to power improvements, Gooden also added many modifications.

For example, in terms of disassembly and maintenance, simple modularization is implemented, and each module can be directly removed and plugged in for replacement.

And for convenience, the entire engine is built with only twelve modules, which will also reduce unnecessary processes for production.

There is no performance instrument panel installed on the current truck, so Gooden can only rely on himself to feel the operation of the magic. After feeling that it is about the same, Gooden holds the steering wheel, lightly steps on the accelerator and starts to drive forward.

As the truck slowly started moving, everyone present was very surprised.

What is the principle? Why can it move without a horse pulling it?

As for Helisa, who was watching from the sidelines, a trace of surprise and curiosity flashed through her beautiful light blue eyes.

As an extraordinary mage, although she specializes in the fire system, it does not mean that she does not know other magic.

The movement of the magic truck, with her mental perception, makes it easy to figure out its internal structure.

But these turned out to be able to move just by relying on the simple cooperation of the magic array. Even though she had been studying the field of magic for so long, she was a little curious, how was this done?

At the beginning of the test, Gooden did not dare to drive very fast. After briefly testing that the basic functions of braking, turning around, and reversing were correct, he dared to increase the accelerator and start racing wildly on the straight stone road.

The stone road starting from the castle was eight hundred meters long in a straight line from the city gate. Under the gaze of everyone, Gudern only took less than three minutes to make a round trip.

Judging from this speed, Gooden slightly calculated that the speed of the magic truck could reach more than 90 kilometers per hour.

With such a rapid speed, even a well-equipped BMW traveling lightly would probably be able to reach this speed.
