Fantasia of the Sky

Chapter 1649 Falcon Country 3
"Speaking of which, in the past ten years...has the country of Falcon been attacked by neighboring countries?" Even Phil felt that this was a bit unbelievable, "Besieged by so many people, but it can persist for more than ten years It's really tough..."

"This is the power of airships." Night Breeze looked at the ridge not far away, "When I was young, I often heard stories about the kingdom of falcons and airships from my servants... that one The old man has personally experienced the siege of an airship. Although there are many exaggerated elements, but on the surface, the airship is indeed an "invincible" weapon. Those who have experienced that war can best understand I understand the scene at that time: I am preparing chariots, cannons, and muskets, but where is the enemy? In the sky, it is still quite high. Generally speaking, the airship will raise its height to the artillery fire Above the shooting range - no matter how hard you fight below, you will never be able to touch the height of others! But the airship can easily drop all kinds of bombs and petrol bombs, launch attacks wantonly, and blow up the city walls , arsenal, barracks... fighting them head-on, there is no chance of winning at all!"

"Well, have the people on the surface tried to increase the range of the artillery?" Han Jiang asked.

"Of course I tried, but the result..." Night Breeze shrugged, "After discovering that the range of their artillery has been improved, the airship troops easily rose to a higher place. Their usual combat altitude is only For the convenience of bombing, you must know that their airships can even fly to floating continents!"

"It's true that there is no effective way to deal with it..." Han Jiang thought for a while and shook his head, "Then how do they handle the logistics support? The fuel needed for the airship...is it special?"

"Fuel oil requires a special refining method, and the requirements for the types of resources are not high. The main reason is that it requires a lot of manpower. As for logistics support, after the conquest, it will naturally be plundering." Night Breeze said disdainfully, "People in the Northern Continent act in a tough manner. It is very fierce, and does not consider the customs and characteristics of the people of other continents at all, but simply "conquers" them... I am not optimistic about this kind of ruling method at all, even if there is no subsequent fiasco, the rule of the Falcon Kingdom It won't last long either."

"Those who lost their relatives, homes, and property in the war, and finally survived, will be ruthlessly suppressed..." Huanmeng's expression dimmed, "Those people will definitely resent the people of the Falcon Kingdom. .”

"It is precisely because of this resentment that the restoration wars of various countries proceeded unimaginably smoothly." Night Breeze said, "This is self-inflicted. Ah, by the way, I heard that most of the people in the Falcon Country I am also quite dissatisfied with its rule. Except for a few important cities, other residents have to do high-intensity work in order to manufacture airships and ensure logistics. The two countries are different from "the more you do, the more you enjoy", and the hard rock country's efforts to restore the country are also different. Their labor is entirely to support the operation of those important cities-making airships is not so important. Easy. The ruler can successfully drive the people, relying on "after ruling the surface, all citizens of the Falcon Country will be able to enjoy extremely favorable treatment", but the existence of the empire is too short to support this promise."

"So, the defense of the country of falcons is quite hard..." Han Jiang knew that without the help of the people, it would be more difficult to resist foreign enemies—not to mention that these people might still expect this country to fight against foreign enemies sooner or later. some perish.

"It is said that at the beginning of the neighboring country's attack on the Falcon Country, the people on the border fled to other countries one after another-the number was so large that the functions of the town were paralyzed. There were not many soldiers left behind, but now there is no way gone."
