Chapter 9: Sentry, Bay of Light
"I'm against it!" Seeing that Du Qian seemed to be moved, Old Man John could no longer care about the threat of the chief of the guard, and he shouted in a very sharp voice at the top of his throat: "Lord Lord! This place is not suitable for building a city at all, even if there are warships that can transport soldiers quickly! ”
Furious, he walked over to the map and pointed to the archipelago and shouted to Harry, "Yes, it's good enough for defense against threats from land, but what about defense from the sea?" And you know, our main purpose is to settle the growing number of displaced people, and if you place them here, what do they do for a living? Do you make a living from ridiculous fishing?! ”
Old John's tone was very unkind, and he ended up with a mocking tone. Harry is usually a very calm person, but when he meets Old Man John, he is like a different person, very irritable, and after being provoked by Old Man John, he also stiffens his neck and says angrily: "A threat on the water?www.biquge.info If you follow your approach, the water is not yet as great a threat! Enemy ships can be driven directly under the city! Your ridiculous pass is useless! ”
"Of course I know the weakness of the water! But the outlet of the Amber River is very narrow and steep, and we can place a battery here! That's enough to block the entire river! ”
"My archipelago can also make turrets! Moreover, these archipelagos are a great way to prevent enemy ships from penetrating deep into the archipelago, and I can turn these broken archipelago into positions to hold back the enemy! With just a few people, you can block the sea with artillery ballistas! The boat simply could not withstand such fire! If the enemy wants to attack the archipelago, he must uproot these positions one by one! Harry's anger was at its peak, and he slammed the table and yelled at Old John.
Waving his hand to signal the chief of the guard not to stop their quarrel, Du Qian watched the show with interest, although he already had an idea of the settlement of the new sentry post, but the Amber River was indeed a good place, so Du Qian planned to see what other plans Old Man John had.
"Huh? But have you thought about it, this is just a sentry, who knows what powerful existence is in that unknown land, if something goes wrong, it is the lives of more than a thousand people! Although the thin old man John was very different in size from Harry, he was not frightened, and he said loudly, "Well, even if there are no enemies, how will these poor people survive in the future?" It's impossible to make a living just by fishing! Moreover, we are already very short of food, and it is impossible for the City of Heroes to provide any effective resources to the sentry! ”
Seeing Old Man John repeatedly making a fuss about the food supply issue, Du Qian couldn't help but get a little bored, and opened his mouth to stop their argument: "Okay, don't argue, I've decided, let's follow Mr. Harry's plan, here I will name it Holy Light Bay, Mr. Harry, you first come up with a set of design plans, if you need a field trip, you can find the chief of guard, she will arrange an entourage for you, Mr. John, and please assist Mr. Harry in his work." ”
Du Qian made the final decision, hesitated for a moment, and then said: "As for the type of this sentry, let's position it as a military sentry, and the direction of people's livelihood development is the navigation industry and the fishing industry. He paused as he spoke: "The food in the City of Heroes is indeed a little tight now, but if there is a large amount of fishery output, which can provide more meat for the residents, the consumption of food will naturally be smaller, so that the two cities can also play a role in mutual trade." ”
"Yes, your will." Under Du Qian's interference, this matter was decided, and Old Man John was still a little dissatisfied with this decision, but Du Qian, as the lord of the City of Heroes, his words were not so easy to refute, so Old Man John had to salute with Harry.
After ordering everything, Du Qian took the head of the guard, took the fishing rod and prepared to go to the beach to fish and play, since the city of heroes was built, although there is the assistance of nuns, but some decision-making things still can't bypass him, so for most of the year, he basically spent between paper and bookcase.
Moreover, during this period, the surrounding area of the City of Heroes was calm and terrifying, except for a few wild beasts that had broken into the town by mistake, there were basically no enemies, as if it was a paradise, quiet and serene, and - boring, which could suffocate Du Qian. Therefore, this time Du Qian is not so much going out of the city to explore the site selection of the sentry post, but rather Du Qian wants to come out and relax.
Because of the expansion of the city, except for the chief of the guard who also followed Du Qian's side, the others have been appointed as officials, after all, the guard officer is also a high-level talent and has received systematic training, and now although the Hall of Heroes has been successfully built, it is a good thing! Speaking of which, it's angry.,In the game,Heroes are refreshed once a week.,But in reality, it's refreshed every 3 months.,Seeing that it's successful, you can't recruit it immediately! At the beginning, it was in order to save himself from the bitter sea of books that he put this building on the priority of construction, just thinking about recruiting a hero to deal with things instead of himself, but now it's good, once the post is completed, the recruited hero must be the priority to be stationed at the post, and he has to wait for a new refresh.
Carrying a small bucket and a fishing rod, Du Qian thought about it and walked to the beach again, his chief guard followed behind with a small team of guards to protect his safety.
After Du Qian found a suitable fishing spot, the guards immediately dispersed, forming a protective circle that was tight and did not affect Du Qian's fishing. Glancing at the sentinels, Du Qian put bait on the hook, while thinking about how many troops he would increase this time.
Now the garrison of the City of Heroes can be said to be extremely weak, and there are only more than 200 troops in a huge city, and these soldiers are only responsible for defending the castle of the City of Heroes, and the towns at the foot of the mountain are all done by patrols from security to security.
The reasons for this phenomenon are, first, the population problem, and second, that in the past six months, the city has been developing steadily and steadily, and it has not encountered an enemy, so it is natural to relax its vigilance, and the expansion of the guard post this time requires an increase in military strength.
Although the City of Heroes can recruit farmers, soldiers cannot be recruited directly in the barracks, but need to be recruited from the local population, and then put into the barracks for training, and after the training is completed, they will naturally become the corresponding troops, while the non-human classes need to capture similar beasts and then put them into the beast pen to cultivate, before they can be recruited.
Moreover, the soldiers are not recruited and have nothing to do with the local population, they still have local families, so large-scale riots are impossible, limited by population.
Today, the City of Heroes has more than 1,000 permanent residents, and when the guard is completed and most of the public dormitories are demolished, the city will expand to its maximum capacity, which is estimated to accommodate up to 3,000 people, and then villages will be built outside the city to increase the population.
Some people may ask, why not just build a village, but have to spend time and effort to build a sentry?
The sentry can be said to be a divided city, but it is not a city after all, its definition in the system is a border outpost, that is, a military castle that divides the border, only if a sentry is established in the Holy Light Strait, then the land between the City of Heroes and the Holy Light Strait is owned by the City of Heroes, so that villages can be established.
Moreover, villages can not be built at will in the forces they belong to, because the definition of a village is a productive type, and it requires a large amount of land for land reclamation, so when establishing a village, it is necessary to take into account the scope of the village, as well as the terrain, and an unsuitable place cannot become a village. Of course, with the distance between the City of Heroes and the Holy Light Strait, it is no problem to open ten or eight villages.
The fish drift floated with the waves, feeling the salty and wet breath of the sea, Du Qian let out a long breath, there is a long way to go. Before he could finish his sigh, the fish drift suddenly moved, and then swooped towards the depths of the sea.
At this moment, Du Qian immediately had the spirit, he didn't plan to catch a fish, but if there was a wisher who took the bait, he didn't recommend adding a dish to his table, with the force of his wrist, the fishing rod was pulled up violently, and a blue figure flew out of the sea.
When the fish fell to the ground, Du Qian was dumbfounded, only to see the blue fish on the ground with beautiful and small scales, the cyan fins kept swinging, the gills and mouth of the fish were hooked by the hook and kept opening and closing, there was nothing strange to see here, but the fish was running around with its little feet because the hook hooked its mouth, and the two small hands covered the big mouth, and did not dare to touch the hook, and the big eyes were full of tears.
Du Qian was stupid, and subconsciously said: "Damn, what's the situation!" ”
The captain of the guard and the sentry were frightened, and the spears and short swords went into battle together, and at once the small figure was pressed underneath.
