Warhammer in a box

Chapter 76 The Goodwill of the Electors

The Nords celebrated their victory again and lined the streets to welcome the victorious soldiers.

After the Norscans were repelled, the Wood Elves returned to their own forests. They did not want humans to be defeated, but they also did not want to have too much contact with them.

After the battle, Ferrer woke up slowly, but he was still very weak. After looking at the bodies of the other two comrades around him, he just sighed deeply.

Perhaps because he was used to life and death, Ferrer quickly regained his form.

"Ferrer... don't be sad..." Ludwig didn't know how to comfort him for a moment.

"Ludwig, there is no need to comfort me. This is the fate of every Cadian. They are worthy of their faith in the Emperor. They are loyal warriors. They are worthy of humanity and Cadia!"

After that, with the help of Ludwig, Ferrel entered the Leman Russ again. After all, no one except him could drive this thing.

However, at this time, Leman Russ also had serious problems.

Without the help of the Mechanical Priest, the transmission and firing devices damaged by the ice of the Frost Dragon could not be restored for a while.

During the entire battle, the remaining 6000 Norscans were almost wiped out, and a small number of troops fled into the forest.

Ulfric died in battle.

Even with such a huge advantage, the human side suffered more than 2,000 casualties, most of which were directly or indirectly caused by the Cyclops and the Dragon Demon.

In this battle, a special force became known to everyone, and that was the one hundred soldiers from Terra.

They called themselves the Terran Guard, and although it was just bulletproof armor it still gave them excellent defense.

The chainsword gives them unparalleled melee attacks and armor-piercing damage, and the golden-bar soldier level gives them extremely high combat experience.

The belief in Zhang Heng gave a terrifying morale boost.

All these factors combined resulted in these soldiers suffering a horrific casualty ratio.

Only two of the 100 warriors died in the battle, also killed by the dragon demon, while they killed as many as three or four hundred Norscans.

The reputation of this team will soon spread throughout the empire along with the soldiers from various electoral territories.

After returning to Sesmond, there was a celebration banquet for the victory.

Geisel generously took out many of his treasures to entertain everyone, but one group of people did not choose to participate.

"Ludwig, you hunted a strong enough prey. We can have a competition when we have a chance."

Ludwig also had a headache when he saw Kena who was full of fighting spirit.

"Kaina, the battle just ended. Let's talk about it next time during the competition."

"Tsk, fighting comes first at all times! I heard that you are someone's chosen one, and I wanted to see who is stronger between you and me!
In that case, I will wait for you to come to Middenheim. I have to go back first. The time to hunt orcs and beastmen has come again. I must go back immediately. Wait for next time! Next time, let's see who hunts the more powerful prey.

I hope you won't scare my prey away next time."

Before Ludwig could reply, Keiner and his men left.

“These White Wolf Knights are really…” Ludwig could only sigh, but he also felt that although Kaina was reckless, his personality was extremely straightforward, and he was indeed suitable to be friends.

The celebration lasted for two days, and Ferrer gradually recovered under the doctor's treatment.

After the celebration, it was time for reinforcements from all over the place to leave.

"Ludwig, you are worthy of your title of count! You have killed two evil guys in a short period of time. I am really looking forward to what you can do in the future. If you have the chance to visit Nord in the future, I will treat you well!
And the weapons and armor of your soldiers..."

Geisel was also attracted by these weapons and equipment, as they would immediately increase the combat effectiveness of his troops!
“Well…I’m sorry, Lord Geisel, these things are also very important to us for now, but I welcome you or someone you send to visit us in Terra, and maybe we will have a chance to trade later.

I admire the Nords' contribution to the Empire and am very willing to help!" Ludwig replied. And Geisel was obviously also touched by Ludwig's praise. After all, the northern imperial people have always been looked down upon by the southerners, and it is rare to hear praise for them.

“Hahahaha, OK, no problem. I will send someone to check out your place right away. I’m also very curious about what kind of place is it that can train people like you and the soldiers under your command!
Then I wish you a safe journey, for the Empire!"

"For the Empire!"

However, the empire the two mentioned may not be the same.

Not only Geisel, but almost every Electoral Counties expressed goodwill and said they wanted to visit Terra, especially the merchants in Marienburg who were the most active.

Their keen business sense made them realize the significance of Terra's weapons and equipment.

After saying goodbye to everyone, Ludwig followed Lehrer's team on the return journey.

Zhang Heng was also paying close attention to everything that was happening.

These weapons and equipment of 40k also seem to be a fatal temptation to the various forces in the empire.

Using these weapons for trade would probably allow Terra to make friends with many of the Elector Counts.

Moreover, in the arms trade, weapons themselves are always the smallest part of the profits.

Subsequent maintenance and ammunition are the highlights of the benefits. It is easy to go from frugality to luxury, but it is difficult to go from luxury to frugality.

After getting used to good things, who would want to use broken pieces of iron?

Zhang Heng didn't believe that the medieval technology could crack 40k's weapons technology.

Unfortunately, Zhang Heng himself has not yet completed the logistical support.

"Faith! Still lacking faith! The next step is to send two oil men to prison!"

Checking his phone, he saw that it was only afternoon, so Zhang Heng put on his clothes and walked towards the model shop again.

When I entered the store, the boss was still playing with the models in his store.

Zhang Heng had never seen any customer other than himself in this store. He was really afraid that the owner would go bankrupt as this was the only store nearby.

"Boss, your business doesn't look good!"

"Hey! Dear guest, what can I do if business is bad? I have to make ends meet. I can't go out to work, so I can only work here for love. What do you want to buy this time?"

"Are there any pawns of the Adeptus Mechanicus?"

"Yes, of course! But you play a very mixed game here, with a little bit of each camp, so that everyone gets the benefit."

After saying that, he took out a lot of boxes from the warehouse behind the store.

"Churchit, Engineer, Cybernetic Data Engineer, Mechanical Bishop, everything the store has now is here."

Zhang Heng directly ruled out the Crusaders. He would not consider combat units for the time being. It was too extravagant to waste faith on them. As for the Intelligent Control Data Engineer... forget it. Zhong Gu had no use for him at all.
Mechanical Bishop, just from the name, it seems that he cannot afford it with his current faith. In addition, it is estimated that only the brain of the human body has been mechanically modified. Zhang Heng is very worried that any medieval people who see him will label him as a cultist, heretic or monster.

The demon hunters and battle priests of the Church of Sigmar will probably come to offer their support soon. Even if we can defeat them, it will not be good for Terra's reputation, and we will be unable to defend ourselves.

The only ones left are the Mechanicians, relatively junior members of the Mechanic Order who focus on the practicality of machinery.

They are seen as necessary, humble cogs in the operation of the Adeptus Mechanicus.

They are present in almost every department of the empire and are good at maintaining various types of weapons, equipment and machinery.

A small amount of mechanical modification can also cover it up, which is exactly what Zhang Heng needs now.
