Chapter 323: Highland Stronghold
Charles didn't dare to speak, and sat there honestly listening to Aritosha's thoughts.
"You humans, you just keep repeating the mistakes you've made. ”
"I don't even think about whether I eat it all day long, whether it is poisonous, whether there are parasites, whether there are side effects. ”
"I didn't listen to what I said that I would get sick after eating, and I wanted to pull us ...... if I wanted to die."
Arethosa said as she opened a row of rough cabinets made of wood on the wall of the hall, and inside were bamboo cans.
She picked up one casually and threw it to Charles, and at the same time said, "Here's what you eat, take it yourself when you're hungry, and the water is in the cabinet next to it, and then go out after the smell of your cockscomb madness has dissipated in a few days." ”
Then she pointed to a nearby room and continued, "When you're full, find a room to rest in." ”
Charles first caught the can, then cautiously asked, "Aunt Aritosha, what's the smell of that cockscomb snake?"
Arethosa didn't react in any particular way to Charles calling her aunt, she took a spoon from another cabinet and threw it to Charles, then sat down at the long wooden table in the middle of the hall, and said, "What did little white teach you? Didn't she tell you that after eating that snake, her body will emit a smell that only cockscomb snakes can smell?"
Charles shook his head.
"Didn't the fat man Monk and Churchill tell you? I remember you were under them. Arethosa asked, a little confused, "That guy George didn't tell you either?"
Charles continued to shake his head.
"These guys ......," Arethosa shook her head helplessly, "They don't think anyone else will tell you these things, but no one will tell you, right?"
Charles nodded, realizing that he still had a lot to learn to survive in the wild.
Arethosa sighed, then walked over to the "Diana Type 1" magic transmitter at the end of the wooden table and began typing.
After two minutes, she stood up and said to Charles, "Okay, I'll help you scold them all." ”
Charles, who was eating old-fashioned canned pork, had a cold sweat coming out of his head, this aunt was really vigorous enough.
Arethosa ignored Charles, and walked over to the map on the table to study it.
Charles was tired from running for hours in the storm, and he ate the can in his hand in a few bites before he walked over to Arethosa to look at the map of the place.
This place is mountainous and hilly, and there are many places marked with labels made of leaves, etc., on the map, which are the strongholds of the fishmen and the strongholds of the elves.
Further north, around Crystal City, there are several markers of important land, all of which are minerals from the Magic Crystal Mine.
According to the map, the Elves are mainly focused on these mines, and several layers of defense have been built for this purpose.
There are also very few buffer zones in the south that are given to the fish-people, only the coastal areas are relatively flat.
As you can see, the fighting here is different from other agricultural areas. The agricultural area can be used to lure the enemy into the depths, but not here, no elf dares to risk the capture of the magic crystal mine to let the enemy in.
In order to keep the fish-people in the south, the elves here even planted two forest corridors several kilometers wide that traverse the east and west, and there are many dangerous plants with powerful and lethal power transplanted from the forest sea in the west.
In order to allow these plants to grow well, the elves will regularly drive some pigs in when the fish-people have not broken in for a long time to give people heads, so that the forest killers do not die due to malnutrition.
Charles studied the distribution of the fish-man strongholds on the map, and found that the fish-men here were stationed in several large strongholds, and they were faintly surrounded by elven strongholds, which seemed to be difficult to break through to the north.
The label on one of the easternmost strongholds is a little different, and all kinds of information are complete, apparently the reason for the targeted investigation for a period of time.
The Fish-Man's stronghold appeared to be not far from Charles's hideout, and it was clear that Arethosa was there to scout the colony.
"Why don't you go to bed when you're full?" Arethosa glanced at Charles, "I'll send someone to send you to the north tomorrow morning, and then you will go west in the logistics carriage." ”
Charles didn't answer Arethosa's words, but said, "Aunt Arethosa, are you planning to attack this stronghold?"
After looking at it for a while, he could also see the clue from the content of the label, this stronghold was built on the top of a high mountain on the edge of the mountain.
The mountain is three or four hundred meters high, surrounded by cliffs, and there is only one winding road to go up and down. At the top of the hill is a flat land, more than 500 meters square, and there is a large pond formed by collecting rainwater.
Originally, no one wanted to occupy that area, and as long as the enemy blocked the way down the mountain, it was useless for the people above to come down.
But now it's different, if the elves deploy the "Charles Organ" on it, they can take advantage of the terrain to control a large area of the mountain.
However, when the elves tried to go up, they suddenly found that the fish-men had taken the lead with the help of the demons, and they had deployed a number of huge counterweight trebuchets and small trebuchets and ballistas for defense, killing and wounding the elves who went to explore the way.
Now the Fish-Man has taken control of a large area of the surrounding area with the advantage of long-range weapons due to the geographical advantage, and has even built several strongholds at the foot of the mountain to echo the top of the mountain.
The most troublesome part is that the fish-man learns after a few long-range attacks. Aerial reconnaissance revealed that the fish-men had dug a number of holes in the top of the hill to serve as barracks and warehouses.
They usually stay in the underground barracks, catapults and ballistas are also in the underground warehouses, and only a small number of fishmen and weapons are on duty.
Elves without burrowing bombs will not be able to destroy enemies inside unless they throw bombs or rockets into the holes in the ground.
Arethosa just said "um" when she heard Charles's question, and then stopped caring about Charles.
Charles then said, "Is it okay for us to throw the cockscomb snake out there to the top of the hill and let the fishmen eat it, so as to lure the snake up?"
"I've tried, but this kind of cleverness doesn't work. "We made the slimes eat the eggs of the cockscomb snakes, and then juiced the slimes and sprinkled them with delta wings, and the cockscomb only caused them a little trouble and died. ”
"Hornets are useless or anything, these little tricks are okay when harassing the enemy, but useless when fighting head-on. ”
Then she added, "It's hard to climb up, they learned that we planted a circle of dragon vines on the side of the cliff, and climbing up can only become fertilizer for dragon vines." ”
"Elsewhere on the top of the mountain, they also have things to prevent airborne, so you don't have to think about going down from the sky. ”
Charles thought for a moment and said, "Maybe I can go up." ”
Arethosa said angrily, "Go to bed when you're full, don't talk in your dreams here." Even if you can get up on your own, what can you do alone?"
Charles didn't care, he pondered for a moment, and continued, "What do you say if I go up and poison their water source?"
"Not very good. Arethosa shook her head, "That pond is small, but it's deep, and it's hard to get that water to reach a lethal concentration. ”
"As long as I go up, there will always be a way. Charles said, "It's better than using a feint to lure those weapons out of the stronghold under the mountain and then bomb them, right?"
"Don't!" Aratosa hurriedly stopped Charles, "If you have something long and short, I'll be surprised if you don't tear it up." ”
"But the other fighters were also raised by their fathers, and no one bought soy sauce to give them. Charles looked Arethosa in the eye, "I still have the ability to escape." ”
Arethosa looked at Charles as well, then grabbed him by the neck and lifted him up and gently threw him into the empty room.
"You men will be able to do whatever it takes, without thinking about other people's feelings. Arethosa said.
