Duke of Herrington

Chapter 186 New gadget!
The setting sun was completely swallowed by the distant horizon, and the whole world gradually dimmed.

When the last ray of light dissipated in the sky, bursts of flames lit up the gloomy duel field again!
"boom!"

Revolver!The biggest advantage is that it will not get stuck. It is a weapon with a high upper limit and a lower limit. If used well, it will be very enjoyable to watch!It's like punishing rape and eliminating evil with a gun in the west!
If used badly.
It will be like a newborn weakling cowboy, only to be beaten!Laughed at by everyone!

Only, this time, Steve got rid of the weak chicken hat on his head!
Compared to the imagined situation where he took aim for a long time and finally missed, he fired six shots in a row, and every shot hit the target!

"The trial is complete! There are three less maggots in this world!"

After emptying the magazine, Steve also imitated the plot in the novel, blew a puff of smoke from the muzzle, and said the designated lines
The administrator not far away thought there would be a bloody battle!After all, Steve wasn't carrying weapons like Ted's!If you want to defeat the enemy, you can only rely on 'skills' head-to-head!

It's just that experience limits imagination, who knows that a weapon as big as a slap can instantly kill outlaw lunatics!

Therefore, he could only raise the flag, and announced in shock and disbelief: "The winner! Steve! Successfully challenged 3 A-level desperadoes!"

On the stage, a nobleman who was not standing in line took out his drawing board, followed by the light from the torch, trying to reproduce the scene just now
"The clothes needle doesn't poke! Maybe it's a new fashion!"

Seeing this, Ted didn't say much, because although there were not many nobles who did not stand in line, there were still some!
It's not because they don't stand in line, but because they are too weak, no one wants them, so they can only go to the scene and exchange their hospitality for the 'favor' of a certain prince.
Such a goal was originally not within Ted's consideration, but their land is still very useful. After all, no one knows what is buried underground. If there is oil or metal mines, it would be a wise choice to recruit them in advance !

Even if there is no mine, the land can be used for grazing to increase meat production!
So, no matter how you look at it, it’s a sure-fire deal!Under their own 'kind' management, they will not dare to rebel!

If there is an intention to rebel, Ted will definitely be the first to know, as long as the 'pro-North faction' is given a little 'special' humanitarian assistance, they will solve it themselves!
At that time, 100% control of this noble will be more convenient for the next development!

Emperor Lester was not overly shocked when he saw the howitzers and bazookas in Ted's hands, because those weapons with large-scale damage were conspicuous and could be stopped!

It's just that the palm-sized weapon in Steve's hand is not only easy to hide, but also surprisingly powerful!

If this thing is equipped on a large scale, the advantage of nobility for nearly ten thousand years will collapse in an instant.

Even a beggar living on the street can defeat a knight who has been trained for 20 years with this thing!

No matter what class of nobles or people, if they are shot like this, even if they don't die, they will lose their mobility for a long time.
"Well, it seems that the empire has to ban these things.!"

After the ruler sees something new, the first thing to do is not to pay attention to the convenience it brings, but to pay attention to whether it will harm his own interests.

Large weapons can be seen, so you can stay away from your own imperial capital, and use soldiers as cannon fodder to protect yourself!At least he thought so, because Lester didn't know the range of this thing and thought it was very close.

But the thing in Steve's hand is small and deadly!This is the last thing he wants to see!If someone hides him and uses it for assassination!The consequences are unimaginable!
"Not only must it be banned, but it must also be searched! Yes! Yes!"

The duel is over. According to the tradition, everyone will definitely attend the dinner party. Under the leadership of the emperor, they will play music and then dance.
But Ted and Steve have other things to do!
That was the first military 'aid' order that he ushered in.
Help the second prince eradicate the enemies at the mouth of the sea, create fishing income for them, and let him collect luxury goods such as pearls and corals on the seabed by the way!
The cost this time was [-] gold coins, and the price was just a random word, because gold coins are not worth much in the northern border, only a little more expensive than iron.
The main purpose is to let the second prince who is the most warlike in the empire pay respect to him!

A smart person like him, after knowing the gap between strengths, will definitely open the way for himself.

If tomorrow's first foreign military operation can be carried out smoothly, there will be fewer troubles in the future.

If the second prince is ignorant of current affairs and forcibly refuses to pay the final payment, he still has to quarrel with himself
The quarries in the north don't mind one more person.

Ted's move is for the future of the empire!Reduce unnecessary casualties caused by unnecessary conflicts that could have been avoided!

The death of a prince is for the sake of the overall situation!

When Steve found Ted and Galen, Ted took out the walkie-talkie: "This is Ted, where is the transport plane I called?"

"Oh? Sir? The transport plane. I am Kangkang. It is about 15 minutes away from Dherim, and it will land in a newly opened space outside the city! In order for our pilots to find you as soon as possible, it is best to use Some road flares, or advanced glow sticks for identification!"

"I see! Then I'll go there now. That's right! Don't forget to send a team of National Guards to the airport. We have an outsider going with us. Keep an eye on him and don't let him run around."

"Yes, sir!"

After finishing all this, Ted temporarily requisitioned the off-road vehicle for delivery that was idle in his shop, and took the royal token to travel unimpeded all the way to the open space outside the city.

At this moment, it is already dark, and in this dark period, it is time to sleep!
Because you can't see your fingers!Only nobles and royalty had enough money to light lamps and torches to keep the fun going.

It’s just that these two things have great safety hazards. If they don’t do it, they will set the wooden houses on fire. In addition, they don’t have corresponding fire protection measures.
The newly built palace is only 20 years old, because every once in a while, some drunken nobleman accidentally knocks over a candle.
But they didn't mind, because the emperor thought it was their honor for the untouchables to build a palace for everyone!Even if you die from exhaustion, you will honor your ancestors.

For lighting, the vehicle did not turn off.

As the second prince of 'Turtle', when he saw the headlights, an inexplicable sense of joy welled up in his heart.

"This thing is good. It has no smell! And it's very bright! I just don't know how long it can burn?"

At this time, the driver of the car came over and patiently explained to the second prince: "Return to Your Highness, this thing is called an electric light, and the one in front of you is called a headlight. As long as there is electricity, it can be used until it is scrapped!"

"Oh? What is electricity then?"

He knows lamps and goods very well, but things like electricity have touched the blind spot of his knowledge, even if he makes them up, he doesn't know how to make them up.
"Your Highness, I don't know, I only know that this thing is very convenient, it doesn't need to burn wood, and it can ignore most of the environmental factors. As for the specifics, Mr. Earl Herrington knows best. Because he is the holder of the patent. "

"Huh? Ted, you still do these things?"

"You're joking, Second Prince, this is just a trick made out of silly things, it's not worth mentioning!"

Just when the second prince was about to continue asking, the roar of an airplane engine suddenly came from the sky.
"Call Chief Ted, we have reached the sky above Dherim, and roughly found your position, but some lights are needed for landing"

"No problem, I'm ready!"

As he said that, Ted signaled to the people who followed, and in a straight line, he broke off the powerful light stick in his hand and threw it at the target location.

As a portable light source, this thing is different from regular light sticks. The powerful version used for lighting this time only lasts for 10 minutes, and it will stop cooking after 10 minutes. It is different from the kind of light sticks that focus on lighting for a long time. completely different.

"Sir, I saw it, it's landing!"

What was originally intended to be a low-key itinerary is now being executed in the complete opposite way!So Steve sneaks up to Ted and asks in a low voice, "Ted, you're getting high-key now, so can I take more showers? Keep it clean?"

"Of course, it's just that you have to live with your wife and son for a while."

"You took it back?"

"Yeah, after they checked their bodies, they stayed at the reception hotel provided by the Ministry of Foreign Affairs. However, there is bad news, that is, your wife's physical condition is not very good. According to the description, she recently appeared I have suffered from intermittent epilepsy, and I also have certain cognitive impairments. Your son's condition is not very stable. The high fever has lasted for half a month. Even our medical methods are helpless now. Special said, at most there is only two months to live."

"Hey, leave it to God."

Although he said so on the lips, in fact, his heart was already full of joy!

But besides the excitement, there was also some bitterness.

This marriage was originally a political marriage, imprisoning Steve, an honest man.
Now, this chain is about to be broken, it is time to celebrate, but after all, it is my first woman and first child, even if it looks hard to say, but there is still family affection
"Ted, when the time comes, let me accompany them well."

"No problem, I've already told 'her', don't worry, it's only two months, during this time, someone will take good care of them"

"thanks."

Three minutes later, a plane landed slowly along the marked light source and landed precisely in front of Ted.

The accompanying escort planes are still hovering in the sky, escorting the flight.

I thought that the second prince would be surprised by what he saw and heard, but he didn't show anything, he seemed very calm, like a dung beetle nouveau riche, when he saw the noble dung beetle, he forcibly showed a well-educated appearance.

"Second prince, please."

"it is good"

As soon as the words fell, Galen fell down because he was shocked and forgot which leg to step first
"Depend on!"

"Your Highness, are you okay? Do you need us to help?"

"No. I'm fine. My butt was a little numb just now." He said, pretending to be calm, imitating Steve's appearance when he entered the cabin, and came inside.

After Joseph went in, Ted came to the front of the car and took out a few gold coins to pay for the rental car: "That's it! We'll take off now, this is the fee for this time."

"Sir, you don't have to. How can you collect your money if you are our boss?"

As one of the richest people in the world, we should try our best to reduce the "emotional debt" from outsiders, especially our employees. We can only be owed to ourselves by others, and we must never owe others: "Then. Take it as a tip for you!"

If the driver refused again, it would be shameful, so he accepted the huge tip: "Thank you sir, I wish you a smooth journey."

"I would like to borrow your good words!"

Even if he is an ordinary citizen, Ted will not rely on his own status to oppress him, but instead talks harmoniously with everyone as an old buddy.

And this behavior will be spread by this person to his shop, and then it will be spread widely. It won't be long before Ted's behavior will be known to everyone in the imperial capital~
This can be regarded as an essential part of the face-saving project. People's hearts that can be bought with money can be bought as much as they can!
Inside the cabin, the pilot turned on the lights to get all passengers ready!
"Passengers, please fasten your seat belts and wear noise-canceling headphones. There is a microphone on the right side of the headphones. Press the right ear to talk to us!"

"Now, we are warming up and take off in about 3 minutes, and the lights in the cabin will be turned off!"

In the dark night, enjoying the lights is what human beings yearn for. The second prince doesn't know why the lights should be turned off? "Close? Doesn't that mean you can't see anything?"

The pilot turned around and glanced at this gorgeously dressed stranger, and immediately understood what was going on. So he made up a random reason: "It would be very expensive to turn on the lights all the time."

In fact, turning off the lights is not because of the waste of electricity, but the pilots are too lazy to explain it!

After all, if you want a person living in the dark age to understand some scientific principles, it is better to fool the past first!Then let him learn on his own.
"The surface temperature is 32 degrees, the wind force is level three, and the pressure is normal. We are about to take off, and the destination is Valentine City in the north."

After the broadcast, it happened to be the time to take off. The pilots turned off the lights and followed the route to Valentine.

At the same time, Ted received a message from Thomas. Hearing the noisy voice, it seemed that John was in it too.
"Oh~ my dear lord, I heard that we have received a big order, is that right?"

"Oh? Thomas, you already know?"

"Hehehe, of course, because we have some weapons with no experimental data here, and we need your help, sir?"

Hearing this, it means that the R&D department has something new: "Oh? What kind of weapon? Need you and John to call me?"

"My lord! It's me! John~! I added a 105mm howitzer and two Vulcan cannons to the newly completed aircraft!"

"Ok?"

Listening to this configuration, Ted is a bit familiar
Putting it on the plane, and using this kind of thing, there is a high probability that it is an AC-130 modified from a C-130 transport plane, which is commonly known as an air gunboat in the game.

This thing is used to bully small countries, it is simply a must!
"C-130 transport plane? Didn't use it as a transport plane? Directly changed to a gunboat?"

"Yes, my lord, because transport planes and the like don't bring much profit, and changing the newly built transport vehicles into weapons is in line with the priority regulations!"

"Then is this plane safe?"

Hearing about safety, Thomas on the other end became anxious. He took the topic and explained anxiously: "Look at what you said. We have already tested the safety! It's just that some actual combat data is missing! So."

"OK, I got it! Tomorrow I will take this plane with Steve to receive the experimental data!"

"No problem! My lord! By the way, if Joseph comes back, it's best to let him be the captain! His piloting ability is better than anyone else!"

"He's back. Just let him drive!"

As he said that, Joseph removed the invisible camouflage, and Ted handed over the walkie-talkie, and responded: "We just took off, and we will be home in a short time!"

"Then I'll wait for you!"

Observing with the light, the second prince Galen only felt that something appeared in front of his eyes, but he didn't know what it was.
"Okay! We're going home now, let's talk slowly when the time comes!"

"No problem, my lord! We will do the final investigation and preparation at the airport, you are welcome to check anytime!"

"When I get off the plane, I will rush over there immediately~"
