The strength of the new Nijmegen is now not high, but it is not low.

According to the system strength ranking of Enides, if you upgrade to a small city, you will have the same strength as a county.

Of course! If it is a real thing, the counts of this group of barbarians in Northern Europe together are not necessarily Randy's opponents.

However, the current Randy is still too weak compared to those big forces.

Not to mention anything else, Denmark, Sweden, England, and these three forces all see Norway unpleasantly, and if they are in a bad mood and send tens of thousands of troops to attack, they can easily bulldoze New Nijmegen.

Therefore, Randy's next strategic plan is better to keep a low profile.

It just so happened that the Grand Duke of Norway was killed in battle some time ago, and the Norwegian tribes were in chaos, and Randy might have a chance to unify the whole of Norway and be crowned King of Norway, and Randy would have the ability to compete with the European continent again and compete with these big forces.

"Huh! ! Why can my dry dock only make Dragonhead Battleships? Looking at the numbers on the recruitment list, Randy complained.

"Ding Dong, the manufacturing grade is insufficient!" Enides replied coldly.

"Insufficient manufacturing grade? What do you mean? ”

"Please open the system interface of the host, the current interface is as follows, taskbar, map panel, building panel, city list, army list, affairs officer list, technology list, diplomatic list, please click on the technology list!"

According to Enides' prompt, Randy opens the entire system interface and decisively finds a bunch of selection buttons on it, among which there is indeed a technology button.

Under the technology button, it is divided into two aspects: military and civilian.

Under the military button, it is divided into two aspects: the army and the navy.

…………………………

This thing is so fine!

The first thing Randy looks at is the Navy!

As he walked towards the barracks, he looked at the naval panel in Enides, and Randy was followed by twenty knights of the Guards at all times.

During this time, after continuous fighting, the Guard Knights were finally promoted to one level, and Randy was also very reluctant to give the two opportunities to upgrade the troops rewarded by the mission to the general's guard, so every knight in the Guard Knights has risen by three levels, adding three points of morale, one point of attack, one point of defense, and the strength has become stronger than before.

In the naval panel, there are only two types of warships that can be built at present: the Dragon Head Battleship and the Small Transport Ship.

There are two types of civilian vessels: small fishing boats and small merchant ships.

And the long-range attack capability of the above ships is zero.

However, the level of the dock for building ships is quite high, and the technology of dry docks can be said to be the highest in the entire European continent.

Further down are the three options: large boats, medium boats, small boats, and so on.

Large vessels:

The legendary 10,000-ton fortune ship (actually a transport ship + merchant ship, the combat efficiency is not high, but it can bluff people)

No money! Can't afford to build ......

Retreat to the next ......

The legendary super-1st class battleship (four decks, loaded with a hundred guns, displacement of six thousand tons, three masts, soft sails, the strongest battleship of the era of sail battleships, a well-deserved fortress at sea. ）

No money! Can't afford to build ......

Next are the first-class battleships, the second-class battleships, the third-class battleships, the master-class Roman ships, the oar-sail dual-purpose ships, the heavy ballista warships, the two-thousand-ton fortune ships, the shipwrecks, and the shipwreck warships......

Randy felt a little weak and flipped over to the medium-sized boat.

Fourth-class battleship (representative of medium-sized ships, loaded with fifty-four light guns, two-deck, more than 200 sailors and sailors, strong combat effectiveness, good overall quality. ）

Tier 5 ships (faster, with slightly lower attack power, can bully the opponent's low-tier ships, and can also be used as the vanguard of the main fleet).

Loach Battleship (The secret weapon of the legendary Song Dynasty, equipped with a legendary waterwheel, a bionic hull, and very fast. ）

The ship seemed good, and Randy took it to heart, looking at the construction conditions.

Manufacturing requirements: wood, canvas, ship equipment, shipbuilding technology up to level 5, mechanical technology up to level 5.

Current technology: Shipbuilding technology level 1, mechanical technology level 2,

Let's put this first!

Gunboats: (Arabian dhows, floor ships, tortoiseshell ships)

Eventually, Randy set his sights on small warships......

Tier 6 battleship: (The most comprehensive warship among small warships, loaded with sixteen guns, one deck, fast speed, strong maneuverability, and weak firepower.) ）

Mortar gunboats, rocket boats, Chinese dragon boats,

This Chinese dragon boat seems to have the same effect as the Viking dragon head battleship, but it seems to be sailing on inland waterways, so is it okay to put it in the sea?

Greek Fire Battleship: (A strange of the medieval light warships, equipped with the ultimate Byzantine secret weapon, Greek Fire, the king of the medieval Mediterranean!) With special construction conditions, the development of special technology Greek fire was successful).

……………………

After going back and forth, Randy finally finds the ship he needs.

Light ballista battleship: (The bow is equipped with a scorpion crossbow, carrying 50 sailors and sailors, the upper and lower decks can be far or near, demand, ship-building level 2, mechanical technology level 2, long-range weapon scorpion crossbow.) ）

Randy slapped his thigh: "That's it!" In other words, does the Scorpion Crossbow require technology? ”

Randy, with a questioning face, opens Enides' army interface, which is divided into two options: ranged and melee.

The range is divided into five categories: bows, crossbows, javelins, large machinery, special, and five.

"There are also special flying props, throwing axes, throwing ropes, slingshots? However, these are all old things from a hundred years ago, why are there no muskets? I remember that Code Name Four was not the one who killed me with a musket? ”

"The conditions for the manufacture of muskets require special events." Enides explained.

Although the scorpion crossbow also carries the crossbow word, according to the classification, it should be mechanical.

Ancient Lever Catapult: (Craftable)

Ancient Ballista: (Craftable)

Engineering Scale Truck: (Requires Level 4 Mechanical Technology)

Bed Crossbow: (Requires Level 3 Mechanical Technology)

Scorpion Crossbow: (Requires Level 4 Mechanical Technology)

"Enides, how should I study these technologies?"

"Build a research institute, and then you can study it."

"Research institutes?"

So, Randy decisively searched for a research institute in the list of buildings.

Research Institute: (Legend has it that in the dark Middle Ages, theology ruled everything, science and technology were absolutely not allowed, otherwise you would have to bear the name of heresy, if you really want to build this thing, please choose a hidden place, and never let people find out, otherwise you will bear the consequences.) ”

Randy rolled his eyes and said, "It's not the first time I've done this, Jian!" ”

"Please choose a construction site!"

"The basement under the lord's residence,"

"The cost of construction, fifteen hundred gold coins."

Randy opens the tech page again and sees a translucent string of words written on the scorpion crossbow: Researchable!

However, the prerequisite for the study is one hundred gold coins......

"Enides, can you buy technology with a little roll?"

"Yes, but it costs a lot of points to buy directly, and it is not recommended for the host to use point volumes."

Enides said that, but Randy couldn't wait.

"No matter how much you need, report the number!"

"1,000 points for each primary technology, 10,000 points for intermediate technology, 100,000 points for each advanced technology, 1,000,000 points for each super technology, 10,000,000 points for each for ultimate technology,"

"The scorpion crossbow is an intermediate-level technology, and it requires 10,000 rolls, which means that if I exchange my life for a scroll, I need to lose my life for three hours, right?"

"Yes!"

“………”

"A little roll costs a second of life, and a little coupon can be exchanged for one gold coin, and a hundred gold coins can study the scorpion crossbow, which can save 9,900 bonds."

So, Randy decisively clicked the Start Research button.

"The system prompts that the scientific research institute has not yet been completed."

Just as Randy was about to walk to the barracks, Randy suddenly noticed several Viking warriors walking out of the barracks in front of him, one of them pulling a rope, and a good-looking woman was tied behind the rope.

Of course, it's just good!

"Hey! What are you guys doing? Randy strode over and patted the Viking warriors on the shoulder, asking with a familiar look.

"Chief, this lady claims to be the daughter of the leader of some hapless tribe that has been destroyed, and says that she has a secret to tell you, and it seems to be the truth, so we brought her here."

"Enides, is this the mission I triggered?"

"No, although the system is your golden finger, it is not omnipotent, this guy is a Nordic native, and after you conquer it, he will automatically be included in New Nijmegen, but there is still a certain amount of self-control."

"I see!"

Randy nodded and said, "Go back to the barracks!" Just as the war was won, I wanted to stay with you for a few days. ”

Randy didn't even blink an eye at his high-sounding words, completely ignoring that he had to move to the barracks because he had nowhere to live.

"Ding-dong......"

At this moment, a system prompt sound sounded in Randy's ear.

"Congratulations to the host for a new stat: "Clever Tongue"

"Clever tongue: +5% for people's support, which can be complementary to the skill "Boost Morale", can be complemented with the skill "Intermediate Affinity", shameless +1."

The so-called military camp of the Nordic Vikings is actually a bunch of traditional longhouses, in which they eat, live and sleep, just like large dormitories, surrounded by four longhouses, and a small square is enclosed.

Soldiers usually assemble here, train.

There are arrow targets, stone locks for strength, weapon racks with axes, and sometimes, the army will also do some confrontation training under the leadership of the captain, as well as array defense training, in order to maintain combat effectiveness, and even increase experience points after a period of time.

For example, there are five or six military camps in each longhouse structure, and there is a military camp of comparable specifications in each of the four directions of the southeast, south, north, and west of the entire town.

Nearly two thousand soldiers in Novi Nijmegen were thus organized to defend the town.

When Randy walked into the barracks, the barracks to the south was being drilled, two teams of Viking soldiers and one team of Viking warriors were divided into two teams, led by their own chosen captains, holding wooden axes for practice and small shields for practice, and engaged in fierce battles.

On the side, a group of crossbow-wielding militiamen were lining up at the shooting range, one by one for shooting training, but perhaps because the Viking warriors were so noisy, the disturbed crossbow-wielding militiamen would always turn their heads from time to time to watch the group of guys fight each other.

Seeing their own war leader coming over, some sharp-eyed Viking warriors immediately recognized it, and just wanted to go up to say hello, but forgot that they were still on the battlefield, so they were cut down by the Viking warrior on the opposite side who reacted a little slower.

This unlucky ghost had no choice but to pat the soil on his body, and according to the regulations, he was treated as a dead person, and ran to the side to shout cheers.

When Randy saw that this was not going to work, he said, "Leave me alone, please go ahead, and I'll have a drink with everyone at noon!" ”

The combination of an intermediate affinity and the ability to speak eloquently made these Vikings happy.

"Oh!" After shouting like this, the two teams continued to fight.

Then, under the arrangement of a Viking warrior captain, Randy and the Knights of the Guard first settled their own accommodation, scattering into several beds in the longhouse that no one had yet occupied, which, of course, didn't really make much sense.

Viking warriors still have some rules on the battlefield, and they can be casual under the battlefield, just sleep, where is not sleep? Just find a bed, not enough beds? Then it depends on who is slow with hands and feet, and the slow one should go to the stable with the animals.

In this way, the knights of the Guards also began their own training, and their training was more complicated, equestrianism, swordsmanship, mace, flail, riding spear, teamwork......

This barracks can't be opened at all!

And so, by the afternoon, when the day's training was complete, the Viking warriors laughed, drank ale from their cups, stuffed the roast with the meat offered by the hunters, and bread and sausages, and sang, danced, and fought with each other...... There was a commotion in the various longhouses.

The knights of the Guard were also Vikings, so they quickly blended into the environment and celebrated with their compatriots. And Randy, an outsider, adapted quickly, as if he were a real Viking, wandering around the longhouses, adjusting the atmosphere, and making the warriors laugh and admire.

It's just that when the warriors are making enough noise and getting ready to sleep, several Viking warriors mysteriously pull Randy to the door of a separate storage room, open the door and push Randy in to close the door, and then leave with a laugh......

Randy, who was a little inexplicable, took a closer look, but saw the girl who was being tied up by the Viking warriors during the day and wanted to take her to her mansion......

Seeing that the girl on the opposite side had her hands tied behind her back, a rag stuffed in her mouth, and her eyes looked at her in horror, Randy instantly understood that the Viking warriors had obviously misunderstood something, and of course, this girl had obviously misunderstood something. In the same way, I also misunderstood something.

And if you want to not misunderstand, it's okay, but at worst, this girl's appearance index will rise by about 120 percentage points.

It's true that Randy had just drunk a lot of alcohol, but he really doesn't have the surname of drunkenness, so although his body is shaky, his brain is unusually clear.

"It seems that you can't drink like this in the future, although the surrounding small tribes have been swept away, and you don't have to think about safety at all, but you have to form a habit in the future, and this group of Vikings, your sister can really drink."

However, it was precisely because the brain was abnormally clear, coupled with the stimulation of alcohol, that Randy was a little overwhelmed, and the body and brain were also a little disjointed, thinking about these things in his mind, but his body involuntarily took a few steps forward and walked directly to the girl.

Seeing the great enemy who broke his family and annihilated the clan, walking towards him step by step, the girl who was already imagining her future fate screamed in horror......

Of course, because the mouth is gagged, there are only some whines that come out.

To be honest, the resurrected Randy is not ugly, the sword eyebrows are upturned, the eagle eyes are slightly open, the bridge of the nose is firm, the lips are thin and narrow, the previous Vikings' braids have been torn apart, and the slightly messy shoulder-length hair covers the ears, properly a charming villain's face, but it was evaluated by Enides as a cruel +2 appearance, but for some timid guys, it is a little scary.

It's like the girl who is now tied with her hands tied behind the rope.
