Empires Start with Lords - Chapter 161
Patton looked at the automatic rifle in his hand and put it down with some reluctance. Then he turned his head to look at the logistics officer and said, “Okay, I know what to do.”
The logistics officer nodded with satisfaction, and then said, “That’s good. In that case, I’ll leave first. You can bring some people to me to get your new weapons later.”
“Okay, then you’ll be busy first. Don’t delay the affairs of Lord Ross.” Barton said goodbye to the logistics officer.
The logistics officer nodded and walked out.
Barton was the only one left to look at the already dim sunset and ponder, not knowing what he was thinking.
the other side,
Babur finally reached an agreement with many city lords, and the trade of black powder will be fully launched.
When Babur was on his way back to the Land of Hope, he said with emotion: “Lord Ross is really wise, seeing that the black powder that was stored before will become moldy if you don’t use it, but now it’s emptied all at once. “
Yes, when Ross established the first black powder manufacturing factory, he was already ordering his subordinates to make black powder day and night.
In addition to the daily training of soldiers, the black powder produced can only be used for blasting during construction or mining, but these two alone do not consume much at all.
As a result, the black powder in the Land of Hope was accumulated more and more. Even Patton shook his head and felt a pity when he saw it.
However, it seems that Lord Ross has already figured out a countermeasure early on.
Babur and his last few men rode on horseback on their way home. Looking at the trade contract in their hands, they couldn’t help humming happily.
By the time he returned this time, he, Babur, would be the Minister of Trade, and he would be a proper leader in the entire Land of Hope.
Thinking about it, the smile on his face became even brighter.
After an inexplicable amount of time, a fish-mammed white finally appeared in the dark night sky. That means it’s going to be dawn soon.
In order to avoid unnecessary trouble, the group deliberately chose to travel overnight. Guessing the time, it’s almost time for hope.
At this moment, Babur’s horse neighed, shaking him from his hazy drowsiness.
Babur looked at the city wall slowly emerging in the distance, and realized that he should have reached the place of hope.
He shook his head, woke up his body from the fog, and then said loudly to the surrounding subordinates: “Wake up for me, I’ll be at the place of hope soon. Get up, we’re going home. “
Those dazed subordinates were called out by Babur, and the towering city wall appeared in their field of vision, and their drowsy minds were instantly awakened.
However, there was no trace of anger on their faces, they all showed excitement.
This long trip made their sense of belonging to the Land of Hope soar.
Babur said: “Give me a wink for a while. The city in front is the Hand of Hope, which is the base of the First Army of Lord Ross’s trump card army. Those soldiers who have been on the battlefield all the year round, but the blood is not the same. It doesn’t matter what your identity is. If someone doesn’t open their eyes and provokes them, consider yourself unlucky.”
When everyone heard this, they nodded hurriedly and said, “Don’t worry, Minister of Foreign Trade.”
When Babur heard this, his old face blushed and he waved his hand and said, “Not yet, don’t scream.”
After speaking, there was a lot of “hahaha” laughter and ridicule.
They walked towards the Hand of Hope with laughter and laughter…
At this moment, not far from them, an inconspicuous figure was following them from a distance. Perhaps because of the distance, Babur and others did not find anything.
The figure seemed to have excellent hearing. When he heard Babur say the words ‘Ace Army’, he decisively stopped his steps, then took out a map from his arms and walked towards the Shield of Hope. go.

……
At the moment, Ross is sleeping soundly with Fischer in the small building of Xiyuan.
A beam of sunlight hit his face, causing him to move involuntarily.
Then, with the increasingly dazzling light, Ross finally couldn’t help opening his eyes to welcome the morning.
He looked at Fischer, who was still confused in his arms, and couldn’t help thinking that he had a lot of fun last night.
This little girl has been shopping at the trade fair all day, but she still has so much energy when she comes back at night. Could it be that this is the legendary person who is in good spirits when it comes to happy events?
At this moment, there was a knock on the door outside Xiyuan.
Ross frowned. Didn’t he say not to disturb himself in the morning? Why is he knocking on the door again.
He picked up a piece of clothing at random and got out of bed, and walked down the stairs lightly, without pausing until he reached the gate of the courtyard, opened the gate, and Babur, who was looking at the gate, said impatiently, “It’s not that Do you not disturb me in the morning?”
“Uh.” Babur didn’t expect this to be the first sentence Ross met. He scratched his head and said tentatively, “But, it’s already twelve o’clock noon. I didn’t see yours in the government affairs hall. Man, I’ve been waiting for you for three hours since I came here.”
Hearing this, Ross raised his head to look at the sun in the sky~www.mtlnovel.com~ and felt a little embarrassed. Heart said, no wonder just now that the sun was so dazzling, it turned out to be noon.
He said a little embarrassedly: “Is that so? Ha, maybe I was too busy so I made the wrong time.”
Ross casually said a word, then without waiting for Babur to speak, he immediately changed the subject and said, “When did you come back? Has the black powder thing been done?”
Babur heard Ross’s question and replied, “Lord Ross, I just came back this morning. The black powder has been completely settled. All the lords are very interested in this weapon of ours.”
When Ross heard this, he couldn’t help laughing. No one with a bit of ambition can resist the lure of weapons, especially powerful ones.
Even if they themselves are not interested in expansion, but in the context of this era, in order to protect themselves, they will definitely want to obtain powerful weapons.
He nodded and said, “Okay, let’s go to the government affairs hall and talk. This is not the place to talk.”
After speaking, he got up and walked towards the city hall without looking back.
When Babur heard this, he was stunned for a moment. I thought to myself, isn’t there something important to discuss here? But he also knew that he shouldn’t ask too much.
Immediately nodded, and followed closely behind Rose.
Ross asked while walking: “By the way, you said you arrived in the morning. If I remember correctly, there is no place to rest for hundreds of miles around the place of hope. Are you walking at night?”
