Of course, this also includes the artillery that Lorne covets.
Bulky gadgets must be things that cannot be taken away.
Dragging them will only make him catch up with Lorne.
In order to prevent Lorne from getting it, Li Anbang destroyed everything he could and blew it up to nothing.
It was too late and he simply sank into the nearby river.
It's just that the Morris family's territory is close to the Death Desert, and the rivers here are extremely precious resources.
Li Anbang thought that what he did was extremely covert, but his actions of sinking artillery were still seen by others.
When Lorne led the army to recapture the cities occupied by the heretics one by one, Richard immediately received the news.
Knowing that there were many Stuart family craftsmen around Lorne, and believing that his own family was incapable of imitating heretic weapons, he simply sold Lorne to a good one, hoping to get these high-end weapons from Lorne.
"Your Majesty the Earl of the North, my people made a major discovery today."
Since Lorn was the only person in the Empire who defeated the heretics head-on and thwarted their offensive, his title had a very strange prefix.
And this title is actually the result of Sophia secretly sending people to operate.
The origin, of course, evolved from the Grand Duke of the North.
Having seen Lorne's ambition, Richard of course followed Lorne's wishes and asked everyone in the Morris family to call Lorne the Earl of the North.
It's a pity that this bit of flattery can't make the noble Earl of the North smile at all.
The captured percussion gun is too high-end, and the craftsmen of the Stuart family don't understand the design of the primer at all, let alone imitate it.
They are also still studying the rifling of the barrel.
Even for gunpowder, it took some time for these guys to figure out the recipe.
With so many things he couldn't figure out, it was strange that Lorne's complexion had improved.
But as Richard is the future head of the Morris family, he can help him act like a little brother, and Lorne will not deliberately show off to him if there is no special reason.
Putting away some of his ugly expression, he put away the news from the north and asked Richard.
"This is a major discovery.
Isn't it because the heretics are raising their troops again?"
It was Lorne's joke, but Richard couldn't laugh at all.
The Morris family knows how powerful heretics are.
It is precisely because of this that Richard showed even more respect for Lorne, who was able to fight off the heretics.
"With Your Excellency the Earl of the North here, it is impossible for the heretics to stretch out their claws at will.
The entire empire is now counting on you to lead us to counterattack the heretics.
If they come to attack, they will be seeking death."
After flattering Lorne, Richard continued.
"But their weapons cannot be underestimated.
If we can understand them more deeply, the soldiers in the north will not suffer too many casualties."
Although Lorne defeated the heretic, Richard also saw the corpses on the ground.
Based on the ratio of sacrifices between the enemy and ourselves, Richard can simply believe that Lorne can defeat the heretics with a battle loss ratio of one to two.
Of course, this battle loss ratio is when the heretics did not dispatch artillery.
Richard had reason to believe that if the heretics had used such earth-shattering weapons, Lorne would definitely not be able to achieve a one-to-two record.
The Earl of the North paid great attention to collecting weapons damaged by heretics, which also showed that Lorne was also afraid of those powerful weapons, so Richard did not give in.
"When the heretics were defeated by the Earl and fled in embarrassment, although they destroyed most of the weapons that were inconvenient to carry, more of them sank into the Abi Wadi where our Morris family was born.
Some people saw them with their own eyes and said that many huge things sank.
Today I sent people to salvage them, and I really found a lot of things.
I have already asked people to transport some of the salvaged things back first.
Your Excellency the Earl is well-informed, and you will definitely be able to tell what they are. " Saying that Lorne is well-informed is not flattering to Richard.
Listening to Lorne explain the principles of heretical weapons with his own ears is the third thing Richard admires about Lorne in terms of knowledge.
As for the first and second places, of course they have to be the Earl's stallion-like energy and courage that he dares to fuck any woman.
But it is not convenient for Richard to ask Lorne for advice at the moment.

It is the Morris family's most important task now to figure out the heretics' weapons and imitate them to deal with the heretics and defend their own land.
Richard and his son plan to use Lorne's power to develop weapons while defending their territory.
For the time being, he has no time to eat the Morris Territory, and even needs the Morris family as his backup to threaten Brilliant City.
Lorne is indeed the best choice for the Morris family.
There is no second person with this ability in the entire empire.
In terms of understanding of Brilliant City, Lorne said that no one can be ranked first if he is second.
With the craftsmen of the Stuart family, Lorne is also the most likely force in the empire to manufacture firearms.
It's just that those old guys really disappointed the Earl of the North.
After hearing what Richard said, he immediately gathered the craftsmen of the Stuart family to inspect Richard's so-called major discovery.
Just as Lorne guessed, it turned out that Glory City had no time to destroy all the cannons.
The metal gun body was full of heaviness.
Seeing such a weapon in reality for the first time, Lorne couldn't help but reach out and touch it.
The wet feeling was due to Richard rushing to find Lorne and not cleaning it, but this did not affect the value of the cannon in any way.
With imitation as the first goal, Lorne's goal is very clear.
"Tear it down.
I want to have my own cannon as quickly as possible.
You can tell me what you need, and I will meet all your needs.
I only have one request, and that is cannon and muskets.
I want to have weapons that are the same as or even better than those in the hands of heretics, cancel the front-loading mode of ammunition, and design a magazine with all rear-loading weapons.
Can you do it?"
With the sample in hand, Lorne thought he could imitate it.
But if it were just flintlocks and ordinary cannons, it would not be impossible for Lorne to make them with the help of these experienced Stuart family craftsmen.
But the problem is that the Li family's weapons have surpassed theirs for more than one era.
The processing of materials, the manufacturing of primers and even the rifling all require time and trial and error.
What's more, Lorne is still talking about the idea of loading bullets into the butt of the gun.
Even the most senior and experienced craftsmen are not so sure.
After inspecting the cannon that had just been fished out of the river, as the leader of this group of craftsmen, an old man with a white beard came to Lorn and expressed their difficulties to Lorn on behalf of his companions
