Chapter 174 The Allies

"Your Majesty, what you said is no longer correct. The existing firearms are enough to deal with others. (_《》) The only problem is that we hope to form an army like the lancers under your command. You know, there is no more powerful army than the lancers when dealing with those who are wandering around."

Although Prince Edward was young, he had participated in the entire process of the establishment of the Royal New England Army. It was also the same team, on the basis of the musketeers, asked Nottingham County Chief Philip Mark to mobilize the civilians in Julianna's territory to join the army, plus the elite of the musketeers. They used some muskets with shortened barrels.

Of course, such "lancers" cannot become the king of field battles. Whether in pursuit or other combat modes, "lancers" really play a huge role in combat on the frontal battlefield. They can launch the fastest attack, and whether they attack or purely correct attack, their attack power is very high. The only problem is that there are too few lancers that can shoot continuously.

"Well, I think I can consider selling you a batch, but I want to hear how much you plan to ask for?"

Of course, Zhao Fubo knew that when the muslan cavalry became such a lancer. They were equipped with continuous muskets and after defeating the enemy and causing them to retreat, they could kill and injure the enemy in pursuit. Especially if possible, they would always suppress them. This would prevent them from reorganizing their troops, which made subsequent battles much easier.

“20,000 branches!”

The number of Prince Ed's newspapers scared Zhao Fubo. When he discussed this matter with his own people, such problems were expected to occur. Especially when they were all personally present, they naturally needed a large amount of arms. Zhao Fubo knew that his stock had 100,000 muskets. That was to be completely replaced by a few years later. But what he did not expect was that as soon as Little Edward opened his mouth, his stock went 15.

"Oh, Edward, you should understand. Wars cannot be defeated by the lancers alone."

Wars rely solely on lances and certainly cannot be won. In fact, the practices of countries around the world are similar at the moment. They use a large number of cavalry and artillery troops as the main attack, and then follow a large number of infantry equipped with muskets to carry out occupation. In a sense, although the quality of their weapons and equipment is qualitatively different from the "Huaxia Empire", the combat methods are reflected in such similarities.

"Of course, my majesty, I know that you will only sell us a batch on such a large scale. Therefore, I have to mention more quantities to serve as backup. In fact, we are preparing to equip 10,000 lancers and eliminate some muslan cavalry. Although these muslan cavalry are of good power in hand-to-hand combat, they have almost no offensive ability when they attack!"

Zhao Fubo knew the truth about Prince Edward's saying yes. On the battlefield, the muslan cavalry did not have the ability to fight long distances because the firepower range was too close. But the lancers did not have such a problem, because the muslan had a range of more than 200 meters, and could shoot against the opponent's bows and arrows without any disadvantage.

"We can't supply 10,000 branches, one more branch. But I can tell you a message that we will increase the allocation ratio in the near future. As the strongest allies among the allies, the allocation ratio they get is from 10 branches to 100 branches capped!"

This news made Prince Edward immediately throw the 10,000 revolver muskets aside, the terrifying price. After all, if England fell behind in the rating, the supply of weapons and equipment would probably be completely affected in the future. Moreover, the quantity and quality of weapons and equipment directly affect the strength of the entire country's army. For the entire Europe, there is another problem with the country that is trying to complete its national unity as soon as possible, that is, which country will strategically grasp the initiative in the offensive.

This is definitely not good news. Although the weapons and equipment have made all countries feel that their treasury is not sufficient, they still try hard to squeeze out every gold coin and send it to Huaxia Island. As Zhao Fubo said at a banquet last night, although they "have to smile when they meet", they look back and fight the "Huaxia Empire" but do not intend to interfere. Therefore, Europe's sessions still require a pan-European war, which is probably only possible to truly stabilize.

"At this time, I'm afraid no one will be reluctant to give up money!"

The little Prince Edward's eyes flew across the dining table, and the kings of Europe sat together, occasionally whispering. However, people's eyes often came, which made him realize that everyone else envied him for getting up early.

"Your Majesty, if you don't take the liberty, I ask you to tell me what level the English level will be!"

Zhao Fubo couldn't help but look at the little prince Edward in front of him with admiration. When he was 12 years old, he wouldn't think about these things. He would be hunted by Xiaohei charcoal every day and be hunted all over the world.

"It won't be too low. Edward, you have to believe me. We have a great impression of England!"

Of course, Zhao Fubo would not tell others about such a thing. As long as these allies know, they have such a level in the issue of arms allocation. I believe that the more opaque they will be, the better they will be for the "Huaxia Empire". Then the more the ancillary facilities of the trade route will be maintained.

Then Zhao Fubo and Prince Edward ended their "secret talks". The atmosphere of the whole breakfast was still good because the banquet last night was still good. However, after breakfast, the countries where Zhao Fubo talked about were one after another. Without exception, they all had to use rapid-fire muskets to create armies like lancers. Even King Fernande III, the number of lancers he created was only 5,000, but everything, including the war horses, will be supplied by the "Huaxia Empire".

If all the needs of countries are concentrated together, the quantity will be really huge. Not only will the current inventory of "Huaxia Island" be cleared, but even the production problems will be covered next month.

During the negotiations, the journey on the sea was not bad, but this time the fleet became much larger due to the joining of the kings. The gifts from Zhao Fubo brought to the future wedding of the kings, which made people unexpected that these kings were generous and the gifts they sent were actually pulled by boats.

What they gave was amazing!
