Time is like a wheel without brakes, never stop waiting for anyone, the year 906 of the Black Iron Calendar is a relatively calm year since Taixia entered the Holy War, this year, since the Thousand Machines True Monarch killed a demon sky knight and a number of phantom knights in the first battle of Weishui, the momentum of the demon race's eastward advance has been curbed, the armies of the people and demons on the east and west sides of Weishui have been relatively calm throughout the year, entering a state of confrontation, small-scale conflicts are happening every day, and the battle between the ground legions on both sides in Helan Mountain has been in full swing, but overall, There are only a handful of battles in which more than 1,000 knights participate.
Such a situation, compared to the previous two years, can only be described as calm.
In this year, more than 16,000 new candle oil production bases in Taixia states have been added, and the entire Taixia, whether it is Xuanyuan Hill or the wealthy government around the country, have great expectations and enthusiasm for candle oil, with the candle oil production base blooming everywhere, under the banner of fighting the demons and defending Taixia, the wave of new industries represented by candle oil aircraft and various candle oil weapons has officially swept Taixia, the entire Taixia, It's like a machine that suddenly gets started, and after being infused with candle oil, it begins to burst out with huge energy.
In just one year, the independent air cavalry corps in the states of Taixia has been formed, and the slower ones have set up skeletons, and the upper four armies of Taixia have begun to form a new fully mechanized corps, such a grand occasion, perhaps only several industrial revolutions of human beings before the cataclysm can be compared, whether it is Taixia's rune alchemists or traditional mechanical engineers, many people want to dig a hoe from the gold mine of candle oil, and rack their brains to make various candle oil instruments or weapons, In this case, in the states of Taixia, north and south of the river, all kinds of candle oil weapons and candle oil machinery have sprung up, which is dizzying In just one year, the number of various dual-drive engines that appeared in Taixia has skyrocketed to hundreds, and a large number of candle oil engines of various displacements and models to meet various needs have appeared, according to incomplete statistics, the types and numbers of various aircraft that appear in the Taixia sky have skyrocketed from a few a year ago to hundreds, and all kinds of aircraft have come, and even within many states, the state armies of various states are basically equipped with various types of aircraft produced in their own states.
The Fourth Army of Taixia, which has a strong system and production capacity, has begun to independently develop new types of candle oil aircraft and candle oil weapons.
Under these circumstances, in order to unify the equipment and logistics supply system of the armies of the various states, Xuanyuan Zhiqiu had to issue strict unified supply standards for weapons and equipment for candle oil to the states and the upper four armies.
The Candle Dragon Territory is the holy land of the Air Cavalry, no one will deny this, but the industrial production capacity of Youzhou and the Candle Dragon Territory is completely unavailable in Taixia, and the things that the Candle Dragon Territory can produce, once it is taken out, whether it is a weapon or an aircraft, it will not be long before those states and families in Taixia with strong industrial production capacity will have the same, or even better, and more varied things.
In addition to candle oil, this year, the problems caused by the food shortage in the states and counties of Taixia began to diverge, which can be described as two heavens of ice and fire.
In those states and counties that have been seriously affected by the grain disaster, the official offices in various places have opened their official warehouses for disaster relief, and the officials in various places are anxious, while in other states and counties, the grain shortage that has lasted for two years has been alleviated, and places like Youzhou and Candle Dragon Collar have obtained an unprecedented bumper harvest last year, and even the official fields in Ninghe County rented by Zhang Tie have also driven the eyes of the entire Ninghe County to see a bumper harvest, and the bumper harvest in Ninghe County has further stabilized and alleviated the grain shortage in Yanzhou, and now the entire Northeast Governor's Protectorate, Even those wealthy families, one by one, their eyes are staring at the Candle Dragon Collar and Ninghe County, and as soon as the grain of Candle Dragon Collar and Ninghe County is harvested, before those grains are put into storage, the vast majority of the grain will be used as grain by the people sent by the wealthy families in various states to buy it at a high price.
The Northeast Governor's Mansion was the first to recover from the food shortage that swept Taixia, and for this reason, Cheng Honglie, the governor of the Northeast Governor's Mansion, was also rewarded by Xuanyuan Hill and stood out among the governors of Taixia.
And it was also in this year, Huaiyuantang Zhang's family was very turbulent, after Qianji Zhenjun recovered from his injury and returned to Youzhou from Xuanyuan Hill, first Qianji Zhenjun's "disappearance" made Taixia boiling, and then Huaiyuantang's family advocated Taixuan's "practice went crazy and died violently", and then Huaiyuantang split, Jinwutang Zhang's family came out of Huaiyuantang, and then, Qianji Zhenjun obtained the Great Wilderness Cave in Southern Xinjiang, and the three major sects of Taixia issued a sect black post to the Tielong Sect, which attracted the world's surging feelings In the midst of this kind of restlessness and restlessness, the year 906 of the Black Iron Calendar passed quietly, and the year 907 of the Black Iron Calendar came unstoppably On January 18th, just after the end of the New Year, Xuanyuan Hill was still snowing heavily, and at the weapon test site in the Shence Army base of the Taixia Shangsi Army in the east of Xuanyuan Hill, Xuanyuan Changying and several commanders in the Shangsi Army, as well as a cadre who came to Xuanyuan Hill to report on their work, were sitting in the canopy temporarily built on a hill in the weapon test field to shelter from the wind and snow, enjoying the program brought by His Royal Highness the Prince to the officials of the Taixia Frontier Xuanyuan Changying was wearing a prince's dragon robe at this time, and a cloak with a fire fox fur was draped, and in the wind and snow, he looked heroic and extraordinary.
"Your Highness, here you are" Hearing the prompt of a commander of the Shence Army beside him, Xuanyuan Changying picked up the telescope beside him and looked at the sky to the north.
In the telescope in Xuanyuan Changying's hand, you can already see two rows of black dots in the sky, which are flying here in the air at an altitude of tens of thousands of meters, braving the wind and snow, and after waiting for a while, the image in the telescope is clear, and you can already see the two rows of black dots in the sky, which are the two rows of planes flying in formation.
It was not an ordinary aircraft, and it was completely different from the first few types of air cavalry models produced by the Candle Dragon Leader, compared to the planes that several Weishui front-line air cavalry had already equipped, the planes that appeared in the sky at this moment were completely behemoths.
Each plane is more than 70 meters long in the sky, with unfolded wings of more than 60 meters and a height of more than 8 meters.
There were eight planes in those two rows, and they appeared in the sky like two rows of big birds, more impressive than the take-off boats, and there was no doubt that the planes were faster than the take-off boats.
Looking at the plane that was becoming more and more obvious and clear in the sky, the expressions on the faces of the governors present had changed a little, for these Taixia ministers, everyone had seen a lot of airships and airships, and it was not unusual at all, but such a big plane, everyone had seen it for the first time.
The two rows of planes flew over the weapons test site in a while, and the roar of the huge engines came down from the sky, as if there were several trains running in the sky, deafening, and then, in the eyes of everyone, under each plane, suddenly opened a warehouse, and then, the raindrops of bombs fell from the eight large planes like laying eggs, and fell in a valley of two mountains in front of everyone, and in an instant, a fire dragon came out of nothing, In the blink of an eye, it engulfed a valley covering an area of more than ten square kilometers The flaming fire dragon melted the snow and burned the land, and the steel supports erected in the valley also turned red and softened, melting like candles, and as the flames burned, a gray-black mist emanated from the burning, enveloping the area around the valley.
Even though it was far away, the burning fire dragon still made the people sitting on the top of the mountain feel a wave of overwhelming heat.
More than ten minutes later, when the fire dragon and the gray-black mist disappeared, the valley in front of everyone had turned into a charred and lifeless land.
Looking at such a scene, there was a look of shock on the face of the governor, everyone understood the meaning of those planes in the sky, those planes have more bomb loads than heavy airships, it is estimated that each one can carry more than 50 tons of ammunition, but their speed is many times faster than that of airships, such aircraft, on the battlefield, is definitely a weapon of war, an air raid, can give a huge blow to the demon legion on the ground, no matter how fast the demon legion on the ground can run, there is absolutely no such plane fast, It can make up for the biggest shortcomings in airship air raids, and even if it is not used for air raids and transportation, this kind of large aircraft can also bring great convenience to the logistics of the troops.
But it wasn't over yet, and after a while, with the reminder of one of the generals in the Shence Army, everyone's eyes turned to the far end of the valley.
At the very end, a line of forty strange-looking half-tracked heavy trucks was approaching.
The strange appearance of those heavy trucks is due to the fact that there are several rows of huge pipes on top of those trucks.
When they reached a distance of more than thirty kilometers from the valley, the forty strange-looking half-tracked heavy trucks stopped together, and then the rows of pipes on their backs began to rise and aim at the valley.
After those pipes stopped rising and were quiet for half a minute, pieces of flames erupted from those pipes, and in the midst of those ejected flames, huge "rockets" were shot out by those huge pipes at a faster speed than airplanes, and when they flew to this valley, they fell, and the valley that had already burned and was particularly hot was once again shrouded in high-temperature flames "What do you think of these two sharp weapons, Lord Governor" Xuanyuan Changfeng put down the binoculars in his hand, smiled and asked the governors:
