"Legion Commander! We received a total of 164 reports of fighting this morning. www.biquge.info"One of the heralds reported to Locke," a herald reported to Locke, "The A wing at the lumberyard reported the most, followed by the B wing. The logistics wing that went out to build a watchtower was also attacked by a certain number of gnolls. Now they have been scattered. ”

"Major Bridget with some of the guards is here to help."

"Report to me in time if there is an important situation!" After Locke gave the order, he walked out of the headquarters and wandered around the camp.

Now the built-up area of the Iva Farm has become the logistics area of the Fifth Army. The craftsmen of the logistics wing, who accompanied the army, placed the guys they ate in the former house according to the division of the area.

According to the commonly used categories, it is roughly divided into three areas;

The Blacksmith Quarter, which repairs weapons and armor for the soldiers, and makes improvised and easy-to-defend defenses. In particular, the soldiers' weapons were not forged enough, and cracks and chips often appeared when chopping, which required the blacksmith door to be repaired. At the same time, the axes used for logging also need to be made by blacksmiths on site, and there are some tools needed for daily use. In this area, twenty iron felts were placed in the houses, and the tinkling sound was continuous.

Since the Fifth Army did not carry much iron ore, many things could not be produced.

Locke originally wanted the blacksmiths to craft some throwing weapons, such as javelins, axes, etc. Because of the minerals, it had to be temporarily stopped, and there were no talents in the logistics wing of the Fifth Army who could identify and find minerals, which required the help of the goblins to find them, so they had to wait.

Many of the improvised iron tools were made by blacksmiths after melting down armor that could not be repaired before, including the spear heads of cavalry rifles.

The carpenter's district, this area is now more important. Today, Hudson, the commander of the cavalry wing, reported to Locke about the riding spear, and Locke agreed to the request, and asked all the carpenters to make the riding gun with all their might.

The specifications of the actual combat cavalry gun are relatively fixed, generally a sharp metal cone is installed on the long rod head of about two meters, the hardwood gun body has a handguard in the holding position, and the rear has a counterweight wooden cone, and at the same time, the butt hole is made in the saddle to absorb the huge reaction force of the charge and assassination.

Riding guns are basically used as disposable weapons, because after a single impact, the riding gun will almost inevitably break and cannot be used again, and an overly strong riding gun will cause unnecessary burden on the user's grip and even body.

Therefore, Locke's order was that this cavalry lance must be made with all its might to prepare for future wars. The enemies of Lordaeron in the future are not just gnolls and undead.

Riding a spear is such a thing, as I mentioned earlier. The body of the gun needs to be made of wood that is hard and easy to break in order to protect the user, and this kind of wood, although the silver pines in the silver pine forest are not perfect, they are not bent enough, but they can be used, it is better than the soldier's long-handled weapon. So, part of the felled timber was used to carry it, and a dozen carpenters were working on the riding spears with all their might.

Not only do they make mounted guns, but carpenters also make ballistas.

Yes, the carpenters were surprised when Locke first asked the carpenters for the first time.

Because of the ballista, the technology content is relatively high compared to the riding spear, and many of the materials needed are not available in Lordaeron, which needs to rely on trade, which also needs to rely on goblins to obtain.

According to these carpenters, Locke didn't know the specific situation, and he couldn't be sure if he didn't see the real thing, so he put up with this proposal first.

And when Locke said this idea of naval shipbuilding, all the carpenters looked at Locke dumbfounded, and they reluctantly told Locke. To make a sea boat, find a professional shipbuilder, they are just carpenters...

Locke left in disarray, and made his way to the mixed area where the other craftsmen and priests were.

Here are soldiers who were injured in previous battles, as well as those who were accidentally injured by cutting trees and trees, and who were injured by falling down to build houses. Injuries to this thing, external injuries can be directly healed by holy light, and internal injuries like bone misalignment require a mixture of holy light + bandage + alchemy elixir. Here Locke sees a soldier with a broken bone, who has been restored by the priest in this way, except that the soldier can no longer do strenuous exercise in the near future.

Stonemasons, these craftsmen should be very important people, they are one of the three major craftsmen. To build a city, they need to design and measure, and to build a house, they need to draw and map. Only now, there is no one in the Fifth Legion, and people are needed everywhere to work, and the soldiers of the A.B Wing are all pulled to cut down trees and build houses, which is Locke's helpless move. Not to mention letting the soldiers carry stones.

When no one was digging for stones, the stonemasons naturally fell into a state of having nothing to do, so they could only draw pictures and act as commanders while the soldiers built their houses. So the stonemasons were naturally compared to the carpenters and the blacksmiths.

Through these areas, Locke came to the outskirts of the camp.

Soldiers here were digging shallow ditches along the perimeter of the camp, and soldiers farther away, under the command of carpenters, were inserting shaved round pieces of wood into the shallow ditches and burying them, one by one. At the top, middle, and bottom of the wooden wall, carpenters are using nails made by blacksmiths to hold the wood together to become a real wooden wall.

The top of the wooden wall is sharpened into a cone, which is used to defend against enemies who cross the wooden wall. Inside the wooden walls, carpenters are instructing soldiers to cut down trees, processing them into pieces of planks and placing them in stacks. There are also several soldiers digging pits in the ground.

Locke walked over and asked a few questions, and the soldiers told Locke that the places were going to build watchtowers. One will be built at each of the four corners of the camp to monitor and secure the camp.

Lookout Tullock knew that there was a watchtower at the top that could stand for observation and vigilance. Now it seems that the soldiers are preparing to build a simple guard tower out of wood. If so, these towers may be only a dozen meters high, and at most a few square meters wide.

The soldiers handed over a few chapters of the watchtower's blueprints, and Locke picked them up. After the shape of these watchtowers was built, they were similar to the high-voltage power towers that Locke had seen in his previous life, wide at the bottom and narrow at the top. There is a staircase leading to the upper floor, and at the top of the tower there are a total of 5 soldiers who can stand on it to eat and live.

Locke diligently spoke to them and came outside the goblin camp.

The goblins had become slack since they joined the Fifth Legion yesterday. They are not on guard against the danger, they peddle to the soldiers with small goods they carry with them, such as mechanical pocket watches made by goblins that never stop, good luck amulets, lucky rabbit feet, improvised bombs...

Anyway, everything that could be sold, the goblins swept away their camp. They roamed the Fifth Legion, peddling people they saw, and Locke could only turn a blind eye to them.

"Zax?!" Locke walked into the goblin's empty camp, and he stood in the middle of the camp and shouted, "Isn't there? ”

"Yes! In! The sound of the answer came from inside the goblin's tent, and soon Zax ran out, he was already tidy.

"Oh! You're so punctual! I'm leaving! Zacks, the goblin, stood in front of Locke in a crisp black dress, "I'm leaving, heading to our base camp in Treasure Cove, explaining to them what you need, organizing merchant ships, and bringing the food you need." ”

"Oh?! How do you get there?! Locke looked at the goblin curiously.

This is the Lordaeron Continent, which is tens of millions of square kilometers away from Treasure Bay, and it feels like it can be easily reached by looking at the goblin.

"I have this." The goblin pulled out a small mechanical artifact in his hand, which looked like a large pocket watch, with something like a pointer rotating clockwise.

"It's called a Space Rip Teleporter." Zax proudly introduced it, "It can teleport me to the Hidden Treasure Bay thousands of kilometers away, and this is the most cutting-edge product of our goblin technology!" ”

"Able to cross tens of millions of kilometers?!" Locke was a little surprised, and he asked, "Isn't that the same as the mage's portal?" ”

"Well, it's the same. It's just that they do it by magic. And we," Zax said proudly, pointing to himself, "we goblins can also complete teleportation with the power of technology, but the price is relatively large. ”

"Such a space tearing teleporter, one is worth more than 100 gold coins."

"How do they get there? Aren't you afraid that you will disappear into this world on the way to teleport? Locke asked in surprise.

These little things are really damn in, the failure rate of goblin products has always been relatively high, far less stable than the dwarf engineering, but these little things often have their own whimsical ideas.

If Locke remembers correctly, this spatial tearing teleporter, when in use. It will have a mental relationship with the last person who used this thing, and thus become insane. It takes a few minutes to an hour to recover....

But in addition to this problem, it is a better means of teleportation.

"We goblins all use fixed-point teleportation, for example, the one in my hand can only be teleported to Treasure Bay. In Booty Cove, there's a very deep thing there, and when I'm teleporting, that thing will guide me to Booty Cove. ”

"As for how to complete the teleportation, I don't know, I'm not a scientist. I'm just a trader. Zax spread his hands.

"Well, now. Do you need anything else? If you wait for me to come this time, you can only come when you want something. Then it was a month and a half later. Zax, the goblin, reminded Locke.

Locke thought back in his head, telling him all the materials used to make ballistas, helicopters, fighter planes, and shipbuilding, and then he felt that he didn't really need anything.

"Get the things I need on my list, the sooner the better." Locke urged.

"Okay, I'll go."

Zax opened the lid of what appeared to be a pocket watch's space-ripping teleporter, tossed the pointer around it a few times, and placed it between his legs.

The spatial ripping teleporter began to emit a 'drip-drip' sound.

Locke couldn't help but take a few steps back.

"Alright, I'll go. Before leaving, I hope that our valued customers can take care of my subordinates, thank you. Zax bent over.

Before Locke could speak, the space under Zax's feet tore the teleporter and stopped dripping. A dazzling light began to emerge from the goblin's feet.

Locke shielded his arm from the light and watched the magical scene in front of him.

Zax's body was instantly disintegrated into particle-like points of light by the rising light, floating in this light. Then, the light suddenly shrank, shrank to its original point, disappeared in place, and everything returned to its original state.

In the goblin camp, only a stunned Locke remained.
