Durin's Diary

Chapter 638 It’s just

Like Durin, the King of Savoy had the title of Protector of the Realm, but his child Zaigu was a prince.

This is a clear example of what wolfish ambition means.

However, during the dinner, this enthusiastic man did not look like he had any evil intentions at all.

By the way, it is said that the bastard who pursued Alyssa back then seemed to be his half-brother. Back then, the two of them were fighting openly and secretly for the title of prince. Later, because the bastard wanted to use some means to pursue Alyssa, he didn't expect that the Idar family moved to the Great Wasteland and lived in the Evercast Fortress. They praised him for his loyalty and criticized the bastard's evil deeds.

He lost a big merchant family and fell out with the actual owner of the Three Saints Society, so the kid later lost his power - the stronger Du Lin became, the more unlucky he became.

Therefore, Zaigu's enthusiasm should not be fake. Maybe there is no emotion, but at least there is no malice.

After all, he couldn't fool Daju and Shiyi.

Because of Winder's presence, Lann and Reed could not accompany him. Durin had already sent them back to the Everburning Nest, and now it happened to be Alyssa who followed Durin.

Xiaolu knew Zaigu and was a close friend of his fiancée, so she had a great time chatting with the human girl, leaving her female companions in the salon. On Dulin's side, senior military officers began to discuss the recent war situation.

In the past, the number of green-skinned orcs has always been a concern for the human world in the Western Continent because there are too many of them.

In the era of cold weapons, human armies suffered a lot in battles with the greenskins. It was only in recent years that firearms developed. In the past decade, with the help of talented craftsmen like Durin, the great development of firearms has prevented the countries in the Western Continent from losing a large number of people in battles with the greenskins.

Although it would cost a lot of money, in Du Lin's opinion, if there were only two options, "buy bullets with the money and shoot them" and "spend the money as pensions", Du Lin would definitely choose the first one.

It is better to win with bullets and then let the survivors produce to earn more resources than to sacrifice human lives and not even be sure of winning.

Everyone thought so, so they all wanted to obtain a production certificate for the machine gun.

This made Du Lin very happy - because it meant making money again, and the water-cooled sleeve machine gun was sold - this heavy machine gun was too heavy and too large, so human soldiers needed to be very strong to move it, and even then, a shooter could not carry away the bipod, ammunition box and other things.

This old-fashioned machine gun would also lose its advantages in subsequent improvements. Therefore, Du Lin agreed to the package sale plan of the production certificate without hesitation.

So everyone was having a great time - as usual, Dalindi was the host and enjoyed a 20% discount on service.

………………

Back at camp, Willy prepared to go to bed.

But Rovsky couldn't sleep. The young man was jumping up and down anxiously, muttering that this was not possible.

Watching the performance of this Sicilian northern red baboon, Willy simply didn't sleep. He looked at this peer with great interest.

"Why are you looking at me? Why didn't you stop the principal at the banquet? How could you sell machine guns to those guys?"

"What's wrong with selling it to them? Do you look down on them? But even if you do, you shouldn't look down on the money in their pockets." "Why shouldn't I? No, if we sell them machine guns now, what will we do in the future!" After taking a look outside the tent, Rovsky turned his head and shouted in a low voice.

"Have you forgotten that the principal's first gun was a revolver? He was only nine, you were six, and I was only three." Willy already understood his principal's thoughts. "The principal recently built a machine gun. Why don't you think about what new guns and cannons he'll create many years from now? I think heavy machine guns are only useful against greenskins. If the human world's armies started fighting now, think about how we'd write contingency plans and conduct military exercises."

Rovsky was still struggling: "But that's a machine gun! Don't we all know how difficult it is to charge a machine gun position?"

"So, didn't Lord Durin bring the six-legged high-mobility weapons and tracked combat vehicles equipped with individual-killing fuel-air explosive bombs this time? Any of these things can hit a machine gun position with one shot." Willy retorted, "Besides, we're all promoting the three-three attack now. Even if there are only three of us, we still alternate between attacking, covering, and hiding. Machine guns only have a belt of ammunition for a hundred or two hundred rounds. Rovsky, there are always casualties in war. Isn't it good to exchange so much money for equipment that is destined to be eliminated by ourselves?"

Willy's words enlightened the baboon. He was silent for a while in front of the camp bed and began to undress.

"Are you getting ready for bed?" Willy said with a smile, "You are truly a teachable child."

"Why didn't you tell me earlier! You made me look like a baboon!" The self-aware baboon screamed.

Willy laughed very happily, and then was knocked over by the angry baboon with a pillow.

………………

Dulin didn't expect the young man to understand it all at once, but the next morning, when Rovsky came to him stealthily to ask him, Dulin knew that Willy had understood it - this kid slept in the same tent with Willy, and he definitely couldn't figure out this baboon that grew up wild in Sicily, so it must be Willy who had figured it out.

It’s great to have a young person who understands me.

Du Lin nodded, clearing up the young man's confusion. "We already have blueprints for the new generation of machine guns. They'll be lighter and simpler than water-cooled machine guns. Currently, water-cooled machine guns require two or more humans to dismantle and move them. The new machine guns have a faster rate of fire and are lighter, so two humans can carry everything and move the position."

"Two people!" Rovsky simply squatted next to Dulin: "Two people can run away with the gun, bipod and ammunition!"

"Yes, as for Tall Hoof, if you count the ammunition packs, he can carry everyone by himself. The ammunition feeder can just let the smaller soldiers follow."

"Wow! Can I touch the new gun I made?"

"No problem. We'll have two versions. One is a light machine gun that can be carried by light infantry and used in offensive operations. The other is equipped with a tripod and is used more for defensive operations."

At this point, Du Lin smiled and patted the baboon on the head: "Listen to Willy more from now on, so that no one will worry. Got it?"

"I understand, Principal." The young man grinned, said sorry for disturbing you, and left.

Looking at his back, Du Lin thought of his younger self.

At that time, I also did things and spoke without thinking.

Well, at least this is a good thing.
