My Empire
Chapter 266: Fragile empire
Hearing the saying that going south to make money, the faces of many officials have become much better. They did get unprecedented benefits in the south, and the rich resources in the south really made everyone ecstatic.
The Jesno Empire has many minerals, as well as gem mines and many other precious minerals. What makes Ailan Hill more ecstatic is that oil has been discovered here, and the reserves are still quite huge.
If you count the land acquired and other benefits, Ailan Hill's southward troops have made a lot of money in the Jasno Empire area, which makes many troops very envious.
"Because of the discovery of the oil field, the stock of Imperial Petroleum has gone up a lot." An official nodded in satisfaction and agreed with the muttering of the official in charge of finance.
"I suggest that after we have fully occupied the Jasno Empire, we should continue to advance south and attack the Bamesil Empire!" A minister in charge of the economy stood up and proposed: "An additional 100,000 troops! Take Bamesil! empire!"
"Agree! We should subsidize the Northern Front War, at least we should devote part of our attention to the countries in the South! It is also a war zone, isn't it?" Another minister said as he looked at Gul beside him. Luo.
"Expanding war is not good for us! Gentlemen! Don't just look at the immediate benefits! Destroying is always easier than building. We have won so many places, and we have to build so many places. Do you think this is a good thing?" Chris finally spoke, interrupting everyone's quarrel.
"I know everyone wants to gain benefits in the South quickly, and I really want to do it too! But we can't be anxious, we must be steady to win! If we win a place, we must have a firm foothold there!" He slowly said, yes. Everyone emphasized.
"Send qualified officials to manage the Jasno area and turn it into our granary. This is what we should do now! As for continuing to go south... we can discuss it another day!"
"Now what we have to think about is what the war will look like in the future!" Chris stood up and walked to the map behind him with a serious expression: "The latest news, the scattered and retreating forces of the Puppet Empire are spreading even more. Up!"
He tapped the map, and his eyes swept over everyone's faces: "Before we and them wanted to use a decisive battle to eliminate the opponent, this kind of large-scale battle is actually beneficial to us mortals! We are good at collective combat, this is our advantage!"
His words were a bit cold, and all the officials who had been enthusiastically discussing the southward offensive just now couldn't help but swallow spit.
Someone took out a handkerchief from his arms and tremblingly wiped the sweat left on his forehead.
Just now they were too proud of themselves, and they were all thinking about how they and the chaebols they represented would make money. But they forgot, this empire is Ailan Hill, this empire also has an emperor who is countless times stronger than any emperor's power!
Whether it's making money or developing industries, everyone here must rely on Chris's breath. Their strength is only a paper tiger, and Chris's strength is really strong.
In Ailan Hill, the emperor’s golden words said that if he ordered the eradication of which family, the other ministers would not even ask the reason, and would execute the emperor’s order.
This is dominance, this is Chris' reputation in Ailan Hill. Although he didn't express his opinions often, and sometimes hesitated, when he spoke, no one dared to question anything.
Chris's hand drew a circle in the area of the battle yesterday: "Before the Puppet Empire or the Holy Demon Empire, they all think they can defeat us in a frontal war, so our tactics are the same! They are all concentrated forces. , Looking for the opponent’s main force to wait for an opportunity to fight."
After speaking, he paused and continued: "But...now that our enemies have realized their mistakes, they dare not gather forces because they are afraid of our weapons of mass destruction!"
"As a result, this may allow them to find new tactics against us! I call it guerrilla warfare! The advanced magicians of the magic empire, the magic snake force, and even dragons are all suitable for small-scale operations." Having said that, he looked at Chief of Staff Luo Kai and ordered: "You can tell us about the counterattack that the Puppet Empire might launch next."
"Yes!" Luo Kai stood up from his position and walked to the side of the map with his chin held high. He pointed to the enemy troops near Bellevue and said: "Once they disperse and start to harass our troops with small-scale troops, and then use local conflicts to consume our troops, then we will fall into a very passive situation!"
"Even if they infiltrate the area controlled by our military, or even more deeply, and reach our core industrial area, then we will have to pay a heavy price!" After that, Luo Kai stood by Chris's side. , Waiting for His Majesty to speak.
"Before, they just set the target on me, and they calculated how to assassinate me alone! If they want to understand and put the attack on the city, then what will we face, have you thought about it?" Chris Questioned.
After his questioning, everyone suddenly discovered that the technological empire of Ailan Hill, which was invincible on the frontal battlefield, had not become stronger when fighting the enemy's attack, but had become fragile.
Compared to four years ago, Ailan Hill can now be said to be full of high-value targets. The situation where you can continue to fight if you give up half of the country is now unlikely to continue to appear.
Before, strategic locations were nothing more than some castles and some cities. Even large cities are very convenient to rebuild. As long as the people are still there, or as long as enough people can be filled, these cities will be able to recover soon.
In such an era, losing a city is nothing more than losing some population and part of the minerals. For a vast empire, it is far from discomfort. But now, such a good thing is gone forever.
It must be emphasized that everything has changed now. The large city of Airland Hill needs water and electricity, a powerful underground sewage treatment system, and prohibitively expensive infrastructure.
Nowadays, as long as one power station is blown up in a city, it may affect many nearby power plants. Once the transformer is destroyed, the long-distance power grid will be paralyzed, power supply will be lost in many places, and people’s lives will become a mess. .
And if the water plant is destroyed, then a city will be paralyzed, people will lose the ability to live, and the entire city will collapse within a few days. When the time comes, the city will be stinking, and just countless toilets will become a big problem that is difficult to solve.
There are countless important facilities in the whole city. Tubao has the steel smelting factory in Ailan Hill, and Ferry City has the largest dock and port. There are so many research departments in Serris that none of them can be abandoned.
Naaru, Fallen Dragon City, Volavor, Mayne, North County, Hanhai, Bud...Tunsk, Alanticus, Farud, Dossnar, Higgsnar, Osa... So many cities, each with countless factories, are supporting the development of the empire.
Higgs has oil, Dothan Empire has rubber, Arante has iron ore, Veronza has magic apprentices... Countless resources are serving Ailan Hill, which link has been destroyed, for this empire It's all catastrophe.
In order to cope with the possible attacks of the Magic Empire, Ailan Hill deployed a large number of anti-aircraft guns and anti-aircraft missiles. But while defending, these things have also become a heavy burden on Ailan Hill.
How can there be a thousand days to guard against thieves? In order to protect these important facilities, Ailan Hill has worked very hard, but there will be more such facilities in the future.
Think about it carefully. In peacetime, nuclear power plants, which seem to have unlimited power, can provide almost unlimited power transmission to the surrounding cities. But in a state of war, this thing is a large dirty bomb on one's own territory.
If the other party actually attacks the nuclear power plant, the consequences may be even more terrifying than direct use of an atomic bomb. There may not even be a single inch of grass growing for thousands of years, and radiation will exist until the demise of human civilization.
More common are chemical factories. Ailan Hill has its own chemical weapons production factory. Once such a factory is attacked, the terrible vx gas inside will immediately leak out, threatening the lives of everyone around it.
The poisonous gas drifting in the wind can even spread dozens of kilometers away, and just covering a village can wipe out all the breathing things in it.
To take a step back, just an ordinary chemical factory, a large ethylene production container of hundreds of thousands of tons or even millions of tons, a casual explosion is estimated to be the destructive power of a nuclear weapon.
Toxic and dangerous chemicals are the foundation of modern industry, and Ailan Hill is naturally looking at the production of these things. These chemical products that support industry are irreplaceable in life, but in the manufacturing process they are really very dangerous and terrifying.
Even if the supervision is not strict, there will be explosion accidents, let alone being assaulted. Therefore, even if a magician opens fire unscrupulously in the city, it will cause terrible consequences.
You must know that chemical factories are not paramilitary facilities. The factories that actually produce weapons are more dangerous: rocket launch bases, missile production bases, explosives factories deployed inland...Each of these places needs to be safe, otherwise there will be problems. It will become a disaster.
"We have become stronger, we have become weaker, gentlemen!" Chris looked at the staff in front of him, and slowly said, "Do you think we won? You can choose which one to eat first. A piece of fat? No, gentlemen! In fact, we are far from winning this war! There is even a danger of losing!"
