Chapter 200 Griffin and New Weapons
Seeing the selected people silent all the time, Earl Christine, as the head coach, squeezed a muffled groan in his nose and expressed his dissatisfaction: "As the brave nobles of the Kingdom of Erasia, is no one willing to take on this glorious task? Is no one willing to fight bravely under the inspiration of the griffin flag?"
Although Earl Christine said this with great enthusiasm, unfortunately, the selected people are just passers-by in this world and have no idea of empathizing with it, so no one still speaks.
After another silence, Cao Qian suddenly spoke: "The greater the ability, the greater the responsibility. I suggest that Baron Jiang Hai, who has the most troops, be the vanguard."
"I agree. With the strength of the Baron of Jianghai, you will definitely be able to successfully capture the beach area and lay the foundation for attacking Kariard City." The black man Kapeng said in a rough and low voice.
A smile appeared on Cao Qian's lips and pushed his girlfriend Zhao Yusha.
"Ah!" Zhao Yusha shouted softly, and when Cao Qian winked at him, she stammered and said, "I, I agree too."
Fatty Tang Feng was a little angry when he saw this scene, pointing at Cao Qian and said, "What nonsense is that 'the greater the ability, the greater the responsibility' is. Jiang Hai is your father, and everything is going to cover you? Want to let others go to the front line to be cannon fodder with just one sentence? Dreaming!"
"Put your mouth cleanly!" Cao Qian pushed away the fat man's fingers with one hand, and said arrogantly, "If you know the truth, just shut up. You are not qualified to take responsibility for me!"
As the conflict was about to break out, Jiang Hai pulled Tang Feng aside, shook his head at him, and then said to Earl Christine: "Since someone suggested, I will take over the position of Pioneer."
As soon as his words came out, Earl Christine breathed a sigh of relief.
Although Christine, as the Count and as the supreme commander appointed by Queen Catherine himself, did not have absolute authority to command these subordinates.
In the world of Eracia, its political system is similar to the feudal system of the medieval European Europeans. Although the little nobles had the obligation to serve the kings, it did not mean that they had to obey the commands of their superiors unconditionally. The command system was not as disciplined and clearly hierarchical as modern armies.
If aristocrats with military power have conflicts with their colleagues or superiors, such as unfair distributors and other reasons, there are countless cases where they pat their butts and leave after the war is over.
Therefore, if all of his subordinates refused to be the vanguard, Earl Christine would have to lead the troops to fight by himself. Now someone has stood up. He naturally breathed a sigh of relief, and at the same time, his evaluation of Jiang Hai was also higher.
"Very good." Earl Christine patted Jiang Hai's shoulders suddenly and laughed heartily, "I'm not mistaken. You have a fearless heart like a griffin. After this battle, I will reward you well!"
"It is my honor to be loyal to Elasia! Long live Queen Catherine!" Jiang Hai said.
"Long live Queen Catherine!" Christine responded.
Cao Qian didn't expect Jiang Hai to agree to be the pioneer so easily. He had some good words in his stomach and didn't use them. Although he didn't know what medicine Jiang Hai sold in his heart, it was just right for him.
He took the time just now and asked Kapeng to release the Blood Eye Raven to investigate the defense line Negan established on the beach. The final conclusion was that it would take considerable casualties to capture this beach.
When Jiang Hai was seriously injured in this battle and was unable to attack Kariard City, it was the time to show his skills!
"Jiang Hai. Isn't it too hasty for you to agree like this? Landing in and combat is one of the most difficult combat methods!"
After the meeting finally ended, the fat man came to persuade Jiang Hai again.
"Don't worry, I'm sure."
Since Jiang Hai said that, it is natural that the fat man Tang Feng was not able to persuade him again. In fact, he knew in his heart that with Jiang Hai's personality, he would never do anything unsure. The battle of the shipwreck bay in the last mission world. Jiang Hai left a deep impression on him, so after the fat man met Jiang Hai again in the world of Eracia, he immediately had the idea of cooperating with him.
With such a powerful teammate, it is difficult to fail this mission.
"What's ridiculous is that Cao Qian, a ignorant boy, always fights against Jiang Hai for trivial matters. Tang Feng can already see his final miserable end." The fat man thought.
The conflict with Cao Qian just now and the persuasion to Jiang Hai are just a means for the fat man to express his kindness. I believe that through these measures, his alliance with Jiang Hai will be smoother.
After saying goodbye to Tang Feng, Jiang Hai took a small boat back to his flagship.
One thousand four hundred soldiers were loaded on seven battleships. The two hundred griffins were placed on a special transport ship, and were equipped with four hundred slaves as specialized breeders of griffins.
At the previous auction, Jiang Hai made a big profit, and with the rewards from the previous mission world, he had a total of nearly 400,000 survival points and two thousand conquest medals.
He naturally made good use of such a large amount of wealth, shopped a lot, and improved his strength.
During the beach landing battle, he will show his strength well and shock Cao Qian and others who always can't get along with him, so as not to come out from time to time during future tasks.
Jiang Hai first came to the transport ship loading griffins.
What comes to my nose is a scent of blood and bird droppings.
Griffon is a large flying monster that likes to eat fresh meat. To support so many griffons, one naturally consumes a lot of meat every day, and the smell of blood is inevitable. So many griffons live on a narrow boat, and the smell cannot spread, which naturally makes people frown.
Fortunately, Jiang Hai's sense of smell was basically unsuccessful due to the Aztec curse, so he didn't care about the stench emitted by the griffins.
A short and fat middle-aged man in a gorgeous silk robe received Jiang Hai.
He was the logistics manager who managed 400 slaves and cared for griffons to eat, drink, defecate, and sleep.
The manager respectfully presented a necklace.
The necklace pendant is inlaid with a water drop-shaped transparent crystal, which emits a faint pink light.
The logistics manager said: "Griffon is a monster with extremely spiritual and intellectual powers that are no less than humans. For thousands of years, humans in Eracia have established good relationships with them. A skilled general can command griffons like an arm with just a whistle or gesture. However, this is the first time that the Baron has come into contact with this big bird, so he still has to use this amplification spirit crystal to command griffons."
"It's indeed the world of high demons. Isn't this the brain wave amplification controller in science fiction novels?"
Jiang Hai thought to himself and took the crystal necklace.
The Logistics Supervisor then added: "The Kingdom of Iron Fist does not produce griffins. These two hundred griffins are the dowry brought by Queen Catherine when she got married into the Kingdom of Iron Fist. Before the army attacked the Griffin Cliff area, only these griffins acted as air force in our army. Since Her Majesty is willing to hand over these precious birds to you for command, she must have full trust in the Baron. Please cherish these griffins too. If there are too many casualties, it is probably not easy to explain to the Queen."
Jiang Hai nodded. He did not expect that the baron status he obtained because of his legendary level was so noticed by Queen Catherine, and even the most precious griffin troops were handed over to him to command.
"Let all the slave keepers gather. I want them to assemble new weapons for the griffins." Jiang Hai said.
The logistics manager was puzzled and said, "New weapons? The griffin's claws and bird's beak are the best weapons. Even steel can be easily torn apart. Why do you have to equip extra weapons?"
"You don't have to ask so much, just do as you do." Jiang Hai said without any doubt.
"Yes." The logistics manager replied. In the final analysis, he was just a civilian and had no right to refute in front of the noble Jiang Hai.
When the fat logistics manager panted and summoned all the slaves, he was surprised to find that at some point, the wide and empty deck behind Jiang Hai was already filled with black iron balls like a hill.
These iron balls are as big as grapefruit. They are held in your hands and weighed them. They don’t seem to be solid, and they contain something unknown.
"Each griffin has three iron balls. Two front paws, and one more in your mouth. Let these slaves distribute these iron balls quickly!"
No one knows what these iron balls are useful, no one knows what the Baron Jiang Hai is thinking. However, the slaves did not have the right to question or refuse. So everyone was busy and spent about an hour to distribute the six hundred iron balls.
It was already dawn. The fog on the sea was quickly dispersed by the sun, and his vision was suddenly bright.
Jiang Hai discovered that Queen Catherine's return army was of extraordinary size. The ships she brought back from the Iron Fist Kingdom can be described as repatriation clouds, covering this sea area. Conservatively estimated that there were at least 50,000 troops.
However, this landing beach is so small that it is impossible to deploy such a large number of troops, so the important task of winning the landing battle temporarily fell on Jiang Hai's shoulders.
Jiang Hai stood at the bow of the boat, looked up at the distance, and looked at the beach several kilometers away.
Even though he was ready and had a good grasp of victory, he was frightened by the fortifications of Negan, the kingdom of dungeon.
