British Empire 291, holy Helan Empire 213.

December 28.

The holy Helan Empire, located in the northernmost part of the mainland, once winter comes, the cold outdoors is enough to turn people who like outdoor activities into "indoor enthusiasts" who will never take a step at home unless they eat up all their food.

At this time, in a tavern in allenmuya, the imperial capital of the holy Hiram empire——

"Hoo! It's so cold! "

Gabriel rubbed his hands and went back to the bar of the tavern and sat down next to Camille again.

"Camille, do you know how cold it is outside?"

After sitting back beside Camille, Gabriel, who always talked a lot, began to chat with Camille.

"When I just went out to pee, as soon as the urine was shot out, it directly formed into an icicle. It was really frightening. You said, "if I had just stretched out my little brother, would I have been frozen into ice?"

"Maybe." Camille sipped the beer in the glass and said in a tone that was neither salty nor light, "but it doesn't matter if your little brother is frozen to ice? After all - you shouldn't have a chance to use your lower body in your life. "

"Camille, when you speak, you are as ruthless as ever. Eh? Where's my wine? "

"I have it." Camille raised his beer as he spoke.

"Ah, Camille, why do you drink my wine? After drinking your own wine, order again."

"What does it matter. In those days, when I, you and El wandered together, we always ate in the same bowl and drank water in the same cup. "

"Speaking of El, I don't know how el is now."

Gabriel uttered a long sigh full of melancholy.

"After waiting for more than half a year, I finally got the chance to go back to the imperial capital and meet your majesty. I hope elthe's successful in selling his guns."

"I don't know what's so powerful about that firegun. It deserves El's attention."

"He not only advised the teacher to use his private property to buy the 3000 muskets, but also begged the teacher to help him win the opportunity to meet his majesty directly and sell muskets to his majesty."

"Who knows." Camille shrugged. "I don't know what your majesty will think of this musket. I think your majesty is very likely to treat this gun as waste. "

……

……

meanwhile.

Holy Hiram Empire, the imperial capital, alenmuya, Weiyou palace.

"Is this -- what kind of musket you just said?"

Sitting on the throne, Vasili Peter Sokolov, the current emperor of the Holy Hiran Empire, played with the musket just handed over by el.

El knelt respectfully in front of wahiri.

The highest etiquette of the British Empire is to kneel on one knee.

In the holy Hiram Empire, their highest etiquette is to kneel on both knees.

Vasili Peter Sokolov, the current emperor of the holy Hiram Empire, is also the youngest emperor of the holy Hiram Empire when he ascended the throne.

Wahiri just became emperor four years ago.

Four years ago, wahiri was just over 20.

In other words - wahiri is only 24 years old this year.

24 years old - this age is too young for the career of emperor.

"I think --" the young emperor threw the gun on the ground with disdain. "It's nothing great. It's not worth studying and installing on a large scale."

"This fire gun doesn't have a crossbow at all."

"Not only the firing speed is extremely slow, the accuracy is low, but also it can't hit far."

"Maintenance is troublesome and there are many restrictions. It can't be used in wet weather."

"It's just scrap metal."

As soon as wahiri's voice fell, El, kneeling in front of him, hurriedly said:

"Your majesty! This gun is by no means a piece of junk! "

"Although the performance of the fire gun at this time is not as good as that of the bow and crossbow, it is only [at this time]!"

"Compared with bows and crossbows, muskets have great potential!"

"If enough craftsmen and funds are invested in research! It is not impossible to overcome the above weaknesses! "

"I beg your majesty to set up a department specializing in firearms! Develop muskets! "

After that, El knocked his head down again, making his forehead in close contact with the ground.

"..." wahiri was silent.

Wahiri stared silently at El kneeling in front of him.

After a long time, wahiri said in a tone without any emotional color:

"... are you a student of Marshal Dominic?"

"Yes." El replied immediately.

"Marshal Dominic has made great contributions to the veterans and famous generals of our holy Hiran Empire and our holy Hiran empire."

"I know something about you."

"You, Camille and Gabriel - the three of you are students of field marshal Dominic."

"Although you three are nominally students of field marshal Dominic, you three are no different from field marshal Dominic's adopted sons and daughters."

"Marshal Dominic also spent a lot of effort to finally help you win the opportunity to meet me and sell this gun to me."

"Since you are the student and adopted son of field marshal Dominic, I will give field marshal Dominic and give you some face at the same time."

"Since you really want to establish an organization specializing in firearms, build it."

"I declare that from now on, a" firearms Department "specializing in firearms will be officially established. Let you be the first minister of the fire gun department. "

"Craftsmen or something, you can recruit yourself. The Empire has no surplus craftsmen to give you now. "

"As for R & D funds... I'll give you 100000 narrs a month."

After hearing the word "100000 NARS", El's pupils shrank sharply.

Some hesitation flashed across his face.

But after some hesitation, El suppressed his intention to bargain with his majesty wahiri.

After gritting his teeth, he again respectfully kowtowed to wahiri:

"Thank you, your majesty! Your majesty will never be disappointed! It will make the development of new guns successful! "

"Yes." After nodding gently, wahiri waved his hand, "you go down."

"Yes."

……

……

Although Dominic is recognized as the most powerful and most important marshal in the Holy Sheeran Empire, his life is surprisingly simple.

There are neither luxury houses nor hordes of domestic servants.

Marshal Dominic's home is just a simple three story house.

Field marshal Dominic, who is unmarried and therefore has no children, has only two servants responsible for taking care of his daily life in his home, as well as El, Gabriel and Camille, who were adopted home a few years ago and nominally his students, but are essentially the same as his adopted sons and daughters.

When El got home, he saw Gabriel and Camille who happened to come back from going out for a drink together.

After seeing El coming back, Gabriel couldn't help shouting:

"How's it going? Did you succeed in selling your musket to your majesty? "

"Half the success." El smiled bitterly, "although your majesty agreed to my request, established a special fire gun department to study fire guns, and appointed me as the first minister, the research fund allocated to me every month is only 100000 NARS. And I have to recruit craftsmen or something myself. "

"100000 narrs?" Camille exclaimed, "this money is too little for scientific research..."

"Yes." El sighed, "it's really too few, so I said it's only half the success. However, your majesty agreed to build the musket department, which is a good start, and I am satisfied. Research funds or something, just wait until you find a way. "

Speaking of this, El stopped and looked around:

"Where's the teacher? Is he out? "

"Teacher, he went out just now." Camille replied, "seems to have gone to the palace. The teacher said that he returned to the imperial capital this time in order to discuss important matters with the high-level personnel of the Empire. It is said that even other marshals were called back. "

"What's important..." El murmured, then raised his hand with a bitter smile and scratched his hair. "Since he hurriedly called the teacher back from the Far East, the discussion is probably related to the war... Really, where are we going to use troops this time?"
