39 Herbs and training war rafts

Dawn on the seventh day.

Qin Xiaobai boarded the 6 game, arranged for the peasants to work, and then came to the temple to find the old wizard. The wizard he recruited for 100 silver, of course, couldn't be idle. The usefulness of a wizard is enormous, and if used well, one wizard can be worth twenty barbarian warriors.

The old wizard had already gotten up and was sitting upright in the temple, closing his eyes and recuperating. Hearing the footsteps, he opened a pair of gloomy eyes and looked, then slowly stood up with his cane, and said respectfully: "Patriarch, what is the matter with looking for the old man early in the morning?" ”

Qin Xiaobai said with a smile: "Wizard, the tribal warrior was injured in the battle a few days ago, and I need some herbs to treat the tribal warrior's injuries. Do you know what drugs are made? ”

The old wizard said slowly: "The old man knows a little about herbal medicine, and knows how to develop a small red medicine (+5hp) that specializes in treating trauma, and a slightly poisonous herb juice medicine (-5hp)." He hesitated for a moment, then said, "Besides, I know a little about dysentery. ”

"Oh, what about the others?"

"The rest, the old decay is working on. However, this requires a lot of silver to be researched in order to produce more. Aged silver is limited. ”

Qin Xiaobai nodded.

"Then trouble the wizard to make some little red medicine first, and I'll give you the silver."

"Okay, let's go pick some herbs to make medicine."

The old wizard walked out of the temple with his cane and went into the jungle of the island in search of herbs to use to develop a life-restoring little red medicine.

Qin Xiaobai was worried about the safety of the old wizard, so he called the weak barbarian warrior with the shield on his back and asked him to follow the old wizard into the jungle to collect herbs, and come back as soon as he encountered danger. The weak warrior answered, and hurriedly followed the old wizard into the jungle.

Qin Xiaobai took the remaining nineteen barbarian warriors and went to the sea with the ten war rafts that the tribe had already built to practice water warfare. A war raft for two people, one throwing rocks and one manipulating the raft.

The Barbarian warrior's water warfare capabilities are very limited, and the main mode of attack is to smash rocks - the strong Barbarian warrior picks up the large stones piled up on the war raft and throws them at the enemy's raft until they sink the enemy's raft, or kill the barbarians on the enemy's raft.

Although the stone throwing is a long-range attack, it is actually not far from the stone, and the attack range is about three to ten steps. Far less than the range of primitive bows and arrows after the Bronze Age, which could reach a distance of thirty to fifty paces.

The training of the navy army is mainly the cooperation between the war rafts.

However, it is an impossible task to convince barbarian warriors with low AI the importance of cooperation. The irascible barbarian warriors, in their rage, slew their enemies without even the orders of their chiefs. Ordinary barbarian warriors, unable to understand overly complicated orders. When the war rafts get too close, they will often bump into each other and bumper into each other.

The barbarian warriors selected by Qin Xiaobai to manipulate the raft were basically warriors who were not easily irritable, rational and agile, and obeyed orders.

It is easy for a war raft to fight alone, Qin Xiaobai can give the order himself. But ten war rafts are cumbersome to fight together and must be trained. Train the most basic methods of naval warfare -- juxtaposition, advance, retreat, convergence, and dispersion.

Juxtaposed, ten war rafts are placed side by side in a row. It seems easy, but the barbarian warriors always don't know where their raft should be. Count them and mark them? That would have to wait for the barbarians to know how to count, and now even with their fingers, they can't count five, let alone ten.

Qin Xiaobai used a simple method to solve this problem - look at the fist. The raft on which the fighters with the fist "big" are located, in front, and the raft on which the fighters with the fist "small" are located is in the back.

When the barbarian warriors fought, they immediately knew whose fist was bigger and whose fist was smaller, and they knew who they should follow. Resolved an issue with the front and rear positions. Finally, ten war rafts were put side by side.

Advancing and retreating, the barbarian warrior understood quickly, as soon as the patriarch shouted, they swarmed forward to row the raft, and as soon as the patriarch shouted to retreat, he immediately turned around and rowed to the meeting. But the problem is that it is difficult for them to maintain a consistent formation when advancing and retreating, some rowing too fast, some rowing too slowly. This is where training is the biggest and most effective.

The easiest thing is to gather and spread out, and you don't need any formation. When they gathered, all the rafts immediately gathered towards the location of the patriarch's raft and attacked in groups. When the order is given to disperse, spread out into pieces and fight freely.

Just training these basic naval combat methods took Qin Xiaobai more than half a day to barely form a war raft naval army that could be juxtaposed on the sea and patrol mightily. On the side of your own tribe on the central island, form a naval team that is considered to be the most powerful in the entire "Empire" at present, patrolling the sea back and forth to protect the safety of the island and fishing grounds.

At noon, Qin Xiaobai returned to the ferry.

The old wizard had returned from collecting medicine from the jungle, and was in the temple, carrying a large wooden bowl, and mashing some of the smelly herbs with a wooden pole. Next to him, there was a small pile of herbs.

The weak barbarian warrior crouched beside him with a stone spear, staring at the wooden bowl in the wizard's hand in awe and curiosity, babbling something.

Qin Xiaobai stepped forward and said with a smile: "Wizard, how long does it take to make the little red medicine?" ”

The old wizard pounded the wooden bowl and said, "Right away, here are five small red pills, which can be used by the five warriors of the tribe." There are still twenty herbs left here that have not yet been developed, and we can make more in the afternoon. ”

"Okay, there's Wizard Law."

Qin Xiaobai was quite satisfied, five portions of Xiaohong Medicine, specializing in the treatment of trauma. One serving of Little Red Medicine can restore 5 HP in a very short time, which is equal to 25 HP in total.

Don't look at this HP is not much, but if you rely on the warrior to recover his life naturally, I am afraid it will take 25 hours to recover, and these five small red pills are equivalent to directly saving 25 hours of time. (Wounded fighters recover 1 HP for 1 hour, 24 points for 1 day.) And when the old wizard develops more red pills, he will recover more health.

Qin Xiaobai brought in a few barbarian warriors who were the most seriously injured in the last battle with the Japanese players and only had more than thirty or forty health left, and asked them to receive herbal treatment to restore their health. Then there are lightly injured soldiers, including Qin Xiaobai himself, who also need to recover his health immediately, as the tribal patriarch and the only hero, he is often the target of the enemy's priority attack, he does not dare to take it lightly.

The five copies of the little red medicine were immediately consumed, and Qin Xiaobai asked the old wizard to continue to develop the little red medicine.

Qin Xiaobai was a little regretful, at present, only the wizard in the entire tribe knew how to identify herbs and collect herbs, and the barbarian farmers could not master this somewhat complicated skill, otherwise they could send others to the jungle to collect herbs. It doesn't take long for a wizard to grind herbs, and most of the time is wasted looking for herbs. If you can save the time of the wizard to go to the jungle to collect it himself, you can make more red medicine.

However, this can only be said later.
