Munitions Empire

If it were only for this, it still wouldn't reflect the prowess of the Great Tang Group, as the real secret weapons of the Great Tang were not just these well-trained, well-equipped infantry.

On Dragon Island, the Great Tang also had a unique Armored Corps in this world, equipped with more than 60 No. 1 Tanks, which could destroy fortresses as easily as flipping one's hand!

Once this troop appeared on the battlefield, it was enough to crush any enemy head-on. In this era, no one could withstand the onslaught of the armored torrents, no one!

What's more terrifying is that this tank unit wasn't some rookie using tanks for the first time to charge at trenches; they were well-trained tank warfare experts.

The Great Tang Group's new weapons were all supported by mature combat tactics; the soldiers did not need to explore the corresponding battle methods on their own.

With the enhancement of mature combat plans, the combat effectiveness of these new troops was actually exponentially increased.

Because there was no need for exploration and no detours needed, these troops of the Great Tang Group could present their full combat strength right from the start in front of their opponents.

This is not an exaggeration at all; from the time the first tank was created to the widespread adoption of mature tank tactics, 22 years had passed.

The value of Tang Mo was in allowing the Great Tang Group to save these 22 years of exploratory time and directly pushing tank tactics to their pinnacle.

The same went for the Air Force; Tang Mo did not spend any effort exploring any impossible directions and directly brought out the most mature aircraft design.

The Camel Fighter was basically the best fighter of World War I; there was no need to take any detours to find this answer.

While others were still pondering how to fly, Tang Mo had already come out with the best airplane design, so for him, dominating the skies was indeed a simple matter.

When other countries' navies were still using sail warships, the Great Tang Group was already building Dreadnought Battleships.

When other countries had no concept of an air force, the pilots of the Great Tang Group had already begun practicing formation dogfights...

That was the gap, an insurmountable gap!

Northern Ridge, Wolf City telegraph room, a young military clerk pulled off the freshly translated secret telegram and handed it to the duty officer behind him.

The officer held the telegram and walked all the way to the office door of his immediate superior. He adjusted his uniform, then straightened up and knocked on the office door.

"Come in!" A loud voice came from inside the office.

The supreme commander of the Northern Ridge troops had always been the Earl himself, making the Deputy Commander the highest officer in charge of day-to-day affairs.

This position had always been held by the most senior officer of Northern Ridge, and the current Deputy Commander was actually Earl Fisello's former assistant.

He took the telegram from the duty officer and read it carefully, every second passing by, very slowly and meticulously.

After finishing the entire content, he placed the telegram on the desk, looked up, and commanded the duty officer, "Activate the plan, start the second-level mobilization..."

...

A Knight spurred his horse, racing from the distance, charging into the town square. He dismounted in front of the town hall, pulled a command from his bag, and handed it to the somewhat baffled official.

"By Lord Earl's order, second-level war mobilization! This town is to provide 15 soldiers… execute the command," the Knight said briefly, explaining his purpose.

The official took the document, looked down at it, then raised his head and shouted to the gathering crowd, "For Northern Ridge! Lord Earl needs 15 soldiers!"

There was a moment of silence in the modest square; a man leaning on a hoe stepped forward, "For the Earl!"

"I'm willing too," another man pushed through the crowd, raising his arm, "Count me in."

"I'm willing to go as well," almost simultaneously, another man also parted the crowd in front of him.

"For Northern Ridge, for the Earl." More and more men walked out of the crowd, and in a blink, there were already more than twenty.

"I'm willing as well." A little boy, looking to be only eight or nine years old, walked out with his head held high, full of courage. His youthful voice drew laughter, and his mother pulled him back.

"There's no one here who isn't willing to fight for the Earl." A burly man, with a full beard and holding a sickle, spoke in a deep voice.

His words stirred the crowd into a fervor, as everyone echoed loudly, "That's right! We're willing to fight for the Earl! She gave us the life we have today!"

The chimneys in the distance were still emitting billowing smoke; everyone could clearly see the changes in Northern Ridge over the past two years. Life was getting better and better, and to protect such days, they were willing to fight to the death against the mightiest of enemies.

This scene occurred in many towns across Northern Ridge, countless men left their homes, packing their bags and gathering in the initially empty barracks.

Calculating by this speed, by the end of the World Industrial Exposition, the framework for five divisions in Northern Ridge could be completed, and in just a little time, Tang Mo would have nearly an army of 100,000 at his disposal.

These troops would be equipped with the most advanced weapons from the Great Tang Group, led by the commanders who understood modern warfare the best in this world.

Meanwhile, in the distant Osa, hundreds of Orcs were receiving their new weapons, and they too would fight for the Great Tang Group as a way to express their respect.

In the even more distant Eternal Winter City, a Dwarf hugged his human friend, "My friend, I hear you must leave, which makes me very sad. I don't know why Mr. Tang is recalling all of you staff officers, but I know he must need you."

He released the embrace, swept his arm across, showing the fleet docked at the harbor, "Since you have to go, take these 1,200 tons of steel with you! It's a testament to our friendship! As solid as steel!" Enjoy new adventures from empire

In Winterless City, countless strong men were singing spirited songs, boarding the sailing ships one after another; they were new recruits, about to be transported to Brunas.

At the Jade City train station platform, just as many young soldiers, already wearing the uniforms issued to them, were about to board the train. They were simply not wearing helmets nor carrying weapons yet... they were also heading to Brunas.

There, they would undergo three months of training, after which they would be mixed into various combat units. The terrifying war machine of the Great Tang Group was already turning slowly, unstoppably!
