Wu Xing seemed to understand Brother Pole's subtext, and said: "Brother Pole will find the right time for Brother Pole to give us these new fingers again! Let's not continue to do such eye-catching things outside the 'Cross Slope'!"

The "Cross Slope" is one of the main entrances and exits into the Central Rift Valley, but in fact, its specific role is closer to the role of a market that specializes in providing various services for the Star Monarch Clan, and it is already one of the forces in the Great Rift Valley. Star monarchs and headhunters can make various exchanges on the cross slope, negotiate cooperation, replenish materials, exchange star stones, and even customize, repair tattoos, promulgate or uncover a bounty task, and so on.

Shunfeng and the others gathered around a long earthen ditch to point and discuss, which naturally attracted the side eyes of the past star monarchs, headhunters, and hunting groups. Maybe it's because they have a soul-detaining demon beast, and there are also many star monarchs and headhunters who take the initiative to show their heads when the eyes of the two sides are staggered.

Shunfeng everyone left the small dirt ditch and headed towards the cross slope, Brother Gong walked all the way, and briefly introduced all the way: "We can buy pills next on the cross slope, and buy one or two animal skins in the central area, some small practical objects, well, the most important thing is to choose demon beasts." ”

"Demon beasts?" Xiao Tuqi said, "What are you going to do?" Isn't there a lot of demon beasts in the Great Rift?"

"It can be a mount, it can also be used as a pack horse, and there even seems to be a 'half-beast', which should be quite useful. Bagen took over the conversation and explained, and when he saw everyone's surprised eyes, he laughed and said: "Our Tyumen tribe is the tribe with the most 'ink' among the barbarians except for the gold family, and the grease ink is the product of our territory. I've read a lot of travelogues since I was a kid, so I know a little bit about the Great Rift Valley. And one of my ambitions is to travel to every mysterious corner of the Starfall Continent. ”

The wolf's head tattoo on Bagan's neck is the most obvious sign of barbarian identity, which is equivalent to the totem of each tribe. Therefore, from the style of the wolf's head, it can actually be seen which tribe Bagen comes from. Even if a barbarian has been attached to the Seven Kingdoms, most people are still accustomed to calling him a "slave soldier". At the beginning, Wu Xing was on his way back to White Horse Town, passing by the side of the post road, and met the temporary card of Bagan, and recognized the identity of the latter's slave soldier from the wolf head tattoo at a glance.

"What is written in a book is sometimes too simplistic. Brother Pole sighed lightly and said, "For example, 'Beast Tide' is just two words. But when the beast tide attacked the two 'lighthouses', Xingzun didn't dare to stay in the area outside the lighthouses, otherwise it would probably be a fate. ”

"I heard that the high plateau where the two 'lighthouses' are located, the surrounding area is full of rocky cliffs and cliffs, the terrain is extremely treacherous, and the fortress is built on the high platform, and a large amount of materials, materials, and star stones are spent every year to repair, in addition to a powerful weapon array and a number of star lords guarding it......" Qin Lan was puzzled and asked: "Doesn't it mean that high-grade demon beasts already have wisdom that is not lower than that of the human race?"

"It is precisely because of the wisdom of high-grade demon beasts that a beast tide will be formed. At present, the mainstream view is that the purpose of driving the beast tide should be the high-grade demon beast crystal nucleus pattern in the two lighthouse arrays. This is a bit like a high-grade artifact is missing one or two materials, but there are no other places, and in the end you can only ask for danger!" Brother Pole said this, he couldn't help but shudder a little, and muttered: "Although the garrison legions in the two lighthouses and the forces among the remnants of the Star Venerable powerhouse have been united from time to time to kill the demon beasts, the number of demon beasts is indeed as large as the number of sands in the Ganges River. Whenever the beast tide attacks, the garrisons in the lighthouse, the Star Venerable powerhouse, the Star Monarch, and the headhunters all take turns to take the initiative to attack. It's good that there are flying monster beast beast masters on the side of the defenders' camp, otherwise......"

Brother Pole and people other than the poisonous weeds all shook their heads in unison. Isn't the fortress meant to be defended? Listening to the word beast tide, it is completely conceivable that there are so many demon beasts, and there must be a lot of flying demon beasts, but the defenders still have to risk their lives to attack? Who is sending them to death now?

"Because while the demon beast forcibly attaches the mosquito to attack the lighthouse, it will also ....... Dig three feet into the ground. As he spoke, Brother Pole made two vivid gestures and explained.

From the pre-sage period to the present, the forms and tools of warfare, as well as offensive and defensive tactics, have been constantly improved and enriched.

For example, in the siege of a city, choose the part of the moat or moat to be filled, build siege towers and ladders to force the city wall, or at the same time choose a gate or other damaged part of the city wall to attack with a hammer or a chariot.

Siege tactics also include siege of the city, where the earth outside the city wall is formed into a high platform, and the earth is dumped in front of the high platform to advance in the direction of the city wall, and in the end, even the cavalry group can directly attack the defenders on the high platform, and the archers can also suppress the defenders by firing flat so that they cannot interfere with the earth construction work. Of course, this method will be more time-consuming, and the number of people and baggage requirements is relatively high.

For example, a siege of a cave is a surprise attack by digging tunnels under the walls of the city to enter the city, or simply hollowing out the walls and causing them to collapse.

"The overwhelming demon beasts are on the cliffs around the lighthouse, and there are flying demon beasts in the sky, and then there are demon beasts on the ground, digging three feet into the ground, looking for the weak points of the terrain structure of the high plateau......." Wu Xing muttered, and after speaking, he couldn't help but feel a chill: "This method of 'Yugong moving mountains' is quite suitable for the ...... of demon beasts."

"What's even more terrifying is that those demon beasts that drove the demon beasts to attack the city have become spirits, they should be called demon kings......" Duota muttered.

Brother Gong gestured twice, and then said: "After discovering the purpose of the demon beast, the two lighthouses have been arranged accordingly, and dozens of small fortresses have been built in the areas on the ground that have been hollowed out by the demon beasts, and even provided and built a weapon array. Star Lords, Headhunters, and Hunters who encounter a tide of beasts and can't avoid them can be stationed in those small fortresses for defense. The duration and effect of the defense will determine how long those can stay in the lighthouse after evacuating the small fortress from the gondola and shaft slipway. Of course, if you have a lot of money, you can also put a bounty on other headhunters to fight for you, and then you can stay in the lighthouse and wait for the beast tide to end. ”

"Visibility in the ground area of the Great Rift Valley is usually only about 10 feet away, and there is gray haze almost everywhere, and animal tides come unexpectedly. It's hard to be sure if the monsters we encountered were the 'pioneers' of the beast tide. Brother Pole pointed to the soul-detaining demon beast hooked in Wu Xing's hand and said, "Therefore, its role is very crucial. Basically, it can ensure that we can safely avoid the beast tide or high-grade demon beasts, which greatly reduces our danger in the Great Rift Valley area. ”

At this time, the soul detaining demon beast seemed to feel the gaze of "the stars holding the moon", and shook its long tail a little leisurely, and then hooked itself back.

"The road we are walking on now was built by the First Emperor of the Ages when he conquered the Great Rift Valley. To this day, the Chi Road is still well preserved. Brother Gong pointed to the road under his feet, and said: "The roadbed is rammed very strongly, the sleepers are laid on the roadbed, and the two wooden tracks have been treated with anti-corrosion, polishing and oil immersion. ”

There are two shiny wooden tracks in the middle, and the tracks are fixed on the sleepers.
