Magic Industrial Age.

Chapter 288: 286: Brussels Magic Arsenal (Subscription Request)

You have to admit that when powerful ships and guns appeared, the Knights were destined to be swept into the dustbin of history.

Even if Luo Yi possesses the [Lion Kingship] and leads a group of lion knights, he can maximize his combat power.

But even if he could mobilize his fighting spirit and distribute it carefully, he didn't think he could survive the heavy bombardment of magic heavy machine guns and magic cannons.

This is not Luo Yi's imagination, but the fact that he has tried his best has proven it!
In the city of Oakland, no matter how arrogant the Old Noble Union was, and how many third-level transcendents came, they were still wiped out under the bombardment of magic cannons.

In Frost Moon Canyon, Marquis Carlisle's many plans seemed to be good, but they were all shattered by several rounds of volleys from the magic cannons deployed by Loyi.

In future wars, the role that magic guns and artillery can play will only become more and more important!
Therefore, instead of letting war teach these knights a lesson, it would be better for him to lead everyone and take the initiative to seek change!
Fortunately, the shock brought by the magic heavy machine gun was great enough and the effect was remarkable.

In this situation, even if some knights are unsure, it will not affect their registration.

Everyone present, without exception, entered the knight special training class.

As for the training effect, Luo Yi is still very confident. These people who can become knights are not stupid.

With the help of soul-calming spices, you can get started with meditation in half a year at most.

Although the use of a heavy machine gun requires more magic power than a pistol, it is not much more. With a few hundred points of magic power, you can use it at will.

Of course, having too many people also has its disadvantages. It is impossible to train them together. Besides, these knights are not idle!
They each have their own tasks, shipping, mining, transportation, territory...

Although the tasks are not difficult, they cannot be left unattended!

Finally, Loyi divided the knights into three groups, which took turns every ten days. The course content was naturally based on basic meditation.

The teacher was specially invited from Auckland City. He has rich teaching experience and is best at expressing complex meditation techniques in the simplest language.

As for the soul-fixing spices, Luo Yi supplied them with all his strength and didn't even charge for them.

Besides this, there are other courses as well.

There are mainly two aspects. One is the use and structure of firearms and cannons. Not to mention being proficient in them, but at least being able to solve simple problems and use them skillfully.

On the other hand, there is a survival guide for hot weapons battlefields summarized by Loy.

Well, Luo Yi also took it for granted in this regard, and the content came from the movies and TV series in his memory.

For example, digging trenches to conceal one's body.

For example, lying on the ground and crawling can minimize the damage caused by bullets.

Although rolling on the ground is not very honorable for the knights, they will eventually accept it as long as it can save their lives.

It is worth mentioning that after six months of training, the second sons and illegitimate sons of these knights and vassals were almost all incorporated into the industrial system of Brussels.

After all, they have read books and know how to read and write. After proper guidance and training, they perform very actively and outstandingly.

Then, one knight, after being frustrated in learning basic meditation, thought of his own children and called them back to be tutors.

Thus, scenes of a son training his father were played out in every family.

It also shocked countless people!

Of course, the Knights' Special Training Class is only one aspect and part of Roy's plan.

In fact, Luo Yi also held a meeting with a group of vassals to report on the financial statements and profitability of Raymond Magic Energy Group in the first half of the year.

These people are small shareholders of different branches. Although they do not participate in management, they are entitled to dividends.

The profit of up to 500,000 gold ties stunned even the Red Dragon Virgil, let alone the people in front of him.

It can be said that although they are only small shareholders and only hold a small portion of the shares, even the dividends for half a year are equivalent to their annual income.

Again, a group of small lords under a small peasant economy may not have to worry about food and drink, but the amount of gold coins they can get every year is actually not much.

At this moment, they felt more clearly the changes brought about by the magic energy industry.

From war to military industry, from production efficiency to lifestyle, it is an all-round change!

It was also at this moment that they finally let go of their prejudices and began to accept and recognize the magical machinery.

The prejudice in people's minds is like a mountain, it is not so easy to change!
In the past, although they didn't say it verbally, they always had grudges in their hearts.

It was not until now, when they had gained benefits, their identities had begun to change, and they had begun to seek changes themselves, that they truly faced the situation.

Don’t think this is a big deal. Only when they accept the change from the bottom of their hearts, will there be no resistance to Luoyi’s many policies on land and population in the later period.

This is a series of interconnected things!
Of course, the most noteworthy thing is that this time, Loyi opened a new magic energy factory and announced a prospectus among his vassals.

This time, it was the Brussels Magic Arsenal that raised funds. Naturally, its main products were the Maxim magic heavy machine guns, as well as the magic cannon technology transferred from the Empire.

That is to say, the flower industry has sufficiently advanced processing machinery, otherwise, they would not be qualified to produce these precision products.

As soon as the IPO was announced, many vassals were excited.

There is no way. Everyone is not stupid. Seeing that they can make a lot of money in this almost exclusive industry, they will definitely be tempted.

Of course, there have been no recent wars and no military achievements, so the way of raising shares has changed slightly.

Luo Yi allowed everyone to invest their wealth in the company, but only up to the minimum limit. In the future, he would give some of the shares as rewards to meritorious officials. Similarly, if you hold an important position and make outstanding contributions, you will also be rewarded with shares.

For these two points, the former will have a corresponding number of years set, while the latter will change with the position.

This part was also specially designed by Roy, with reference to the company's options, and was also intended to solve the income problems of people such as Mechanical Minister Hick Cruz, Maruna, Mira Greenman, and even Butler Hoover.

They are not combatants, do not go to the battlefield, and cannot gain military merit, but their contribution to the Flower Collar is unquestionable.

Therefore, their status and treatment must be improved.

In a word, if you follow Luo Yi, you will definitely make a lot of money.

Of course, if Luo Yi wants to get involved in the military industry, he must eventually obtain the support of the empire!
……

Mage Tower,
When Roy walked up to the top floor, he saw Lilia and Christina there.

The two of them were whispering around a Maxim magic heavy machine gun, mainly Christina introducing it, while Lilia listened and asked questions from time to time.

The two of them lay there, twisting their buttocks, and they didn't feel anything. However, Luo Yi's eyes fell on the wrong place.

One is round, the other is perky!
Just looking at it makes me want to touch it!
Of course, Luo Yi was still very composed. He just looked at them a few more times and then coughed to wake them up.

"Louis, you're here?"

Lilia turned around and saw Luo Yi, and she jumped up with a scream.

She walked quickly to Luo Yi's side and said with some resentment: "Since you have such a good design, why don't you give it to me?"

Luo Yi looked at her, scratched her nose, and said, "That's because I feel sorry for you!
You have enough to do with the processing machinery, and there are also various magics to learn. How can I bear to make you even more tired?"

"You can't bear to see Lilia tired, but can you bear to see me tired?"

Christina stretched her head over and imitated Lilia with a look of resentment:
Ever since she got the new idea of firearms design, and even the design drawings of the Maxim heavy machine gun, Christina took the initiative to become familiar with Loy.

Luo Yi could feel very well that this girl wanted to play with fire and was tempting him intentionally or unintentionally.

But he still has enough self-control and never speaks harshly, especially when Lilia is around.

Just like now, he frowned and asked, "If you feel tired, then I won't give you the design drawings for the rest?!"

"besides?!"

Christina's eyes lit up, and she immediately said, "No, no, no, I was just joking, I don't mean to be tired at all. If there are better guns, I will never complain!"

"Then it depends on your performance."

Having said that, Roy turned around and looked at Lilia, and asked, "Is His Majesty Saint Bartholomew here?"

"Yes! I've been waiting for you for a long time."

"Let's go then."

In fact, Luo Yi is also familiar with the top floor of Lilia's Mage Tower, because since the Mage Tower was completed and Lilia moved here, he likes to practice and sleep here.

It was safe, the scenery was nice, and he could hug the sweet and soft body, so he was naturally happy.

However, he seldom went to Lilia's laboratory, or more precisely, the place where His Holiness Saint Bartholomew taught her.

At this moment, Lilia led him along the corridor, and after several minutes, they arrived at the door of a laboratory.

I knocked on the door and entered. The first thing that caught my eye was dozens of magic heavy machine guns floating in the air.

They moved up and down, forming a semicircular formation. The magic patterns on them lit up, the triggers were pulled, and the flaming bullets poured down like a rainstorm.

The target that these heavy machine guns were aiming at was actually a mass of jelly-like substance that looked like a stream of water. Under the impact of the bullets, it was already riddled with holes and constantly deformed.

Compared to the one created by Luo Yi, this is the real metal storm.

But even so, there was no sound at all.

The silent force field that enveloped the surroundings isolated the deafening roar of gunfire within a certain range.

Until all the bullets were used up and the shell casings were scattered all over the ground, finally, all the heavy machine guns fell down.

And that ball of jelly was also shattered and scattered everywhere!

His Holiness Saint Bartholomew suddenly appeared in the smoke. He turned his head to look at Luo Yi and finally said, "Your design really amazed me!"

Luo Yi smiled and replied: "I have to thank Your Majesty, last time, you asked me to design more interesting machines.

This is my answer sheet!"

"Just an answer sheet?"

“Of course, there can be more!”

"Then let's talk inside."
