200 armed
There are two criteria for the completion of the dragon's entrusted mission. [Full text reading]
First, to ensure the concealment and integrity of the existence of the dragon's den. The second is to successfully repel the necromancers who may have a conspiracy future for the village chief before the dragons arrive.
Because of the first requirement, it is impossible to pull the support of the accomplices to fight in groups, and it is absolutely impossible for the dragon clan to allow the news of the existence of the dragon's lair and the guardian to be leaked to the outside world.
And because of the second requirement, Lin Su and the others are bound to face a grim situation.
If the dragon clan support group doesn't come fast enough, and they really catch up with the undead army to really attack, except for the villagers who have no combat effectiveness, counting the dragon brother who has combat effectiveness and Xiao Bai, Xiao Hei, Xiao Hongmao, that is their own five people vs the enemy unknown n...... Lin Su suddenly felt so sad.
"Since the Lord of the Dragon Clan has asked you for help, it means that a few of them can be trusted, and I won't hide it from you, in order to store the bones of the Dragon Clan's heroic souls, the dragon's lair was reinforced and blessed when it was first dug and built, plus a number of dragon souls in the dragon's lair, even if it is a forbidden spell, it can withstand one or two." The old village chief diligently introduced the situation: "But the soul has no entity after all, if the necromancers break into the dragon's lair, once they do something on the dragon corpse, or use despicable means to refine the dragon soul, the situation will be dangerous." There is only one entrance to the Dragon's Lair, just below a sculpture at the back of the village, so defending the village is equivalent to guarding the Dragon's Lair...... Heroes! Please protect our village! ”
After hearing this, Lin Shu thought about it and handed the old village chief a dagger: "You might as well kill us." "Take the stand-in straw man and die back to the imperial capital, and the bad things here will not be in her hands.
What a joke! This village is in tatters, and there is no defense value at all, let alone the city wall, and even the fence is not rare. If the undead really come, there will be flaws in all directions. Even if she and Xiao Hei and other beasts can fight against a hundred, it is impossible to take care of so many aspects.
The old village chief looked anxiously: "Hero! Would you rather die than help us?! ”
"Don't worry, I won't die if you die." Lin Shu sighed and reasoned with others: "If the enemy is only strong, it's okay to say, but the key is that there are still a lot of people...... I ask you, if the mountains and valleys of the undead press on us, which direction do you plan us to defend?! ”
"My lord said, as long as the key necromancer is killed, the rest of the necromancers will not be terrible at all......"
"Very well, then I'll ask you again. When the time comes, people will summon the necromancers to come out and fight the front first, and find a place to hide by yourself, how are you going to catch and kill them?! ”
"I believe in you!" The old village chief's eyes flashed in anticipation.
“…… You can really look up to me. Lin Su black line, thinking about it, said: "In order not to let the other party guess the specific location of the entrance to the dragon's lair." Plus take into account your protection. We can only protect the whole village...... I know some of the ways to set up the battle formations. But no matter how much you reduce the number of troops you need, the area of your village will be at least 200 archers and 500 infantry. One Hundred Ranger ......"
These people want to change Lin Su's manpower when he was in the imperial capital before, not to mention double, ten times can be taken out. But now the fierce generals can't fight a battle without soldiers, first, the dragon clan can't allow more people to know about the village, and second, even if they urgently transfer people, they are afraid that it will be too late, and the army can only rush on land. Even if it is from the nearest assembly point, it will take four or five days to get here, plus you have to run in the battle formation......
The old village chief was desperate. With tears in his eyes, he asked Lin Su: "Is there really no other way?!" ”
"......" Lin Shu turned his face away.
"This is the dragon's lair that we have guarded for thousands of years, my heart ......"
“……”
The old man looked at Lin Shu and didn't react, and then cried after thinking about it: "...... The Lord also once sighed that if His Majesty could really defend the dragon's lair, this kindness would be too great for the dragon clan, and even if he moved his lair, he would not be able to repay it......"
"Oh, the family doesn't talk to each other, the necromancer is nothing at all, and our clan and them also happen to have a deep blood feud...... Lin Shu hurriedly turned his face and clenched his fists and said firmly: "Don't worry, old man, this matter is actually not without room for reversal." ”
The old village chief instantly perked up and was moved: "Your Majesty?!" ”
"When it comes to the battle array, we have to talk about Zhuge Liang, and when it comes to Zhuge Liang, I have to mention the wooden cow flowing horse that his wife is good at, and when it comes to the wooden cow flowing horse, there is the famous mechanism of the Warring States Mo family......" Lin Shu snapped his fingers: "As long as you can prepare enough materials I listed, the manpower problem is not a problem, but ......"
Mozi is good at craftsmanship, and his attainments in military technology are second to none among the princes, especially good at defending the city, which is the so-called conformism. Even ordinary villagers can operate it with an agency to keep a word on behalf of the city, as long as they have an hour of pre-post assault training. But the key is to be tired, to create a city defense mechanism to be tired...... There is no other player craftsman to assist here, Lin Su can only do it one by one, even if she is infinitely powerful, but the mental consumption cannot be ignored.
Of course, if you have money, it will be much easier to do, and the gods and demons store is not without city defense equipment to sell, trebuchets are the most basic, in addition to the transfer machine, the ballista car, and the borrowed car...... Only the unexpected, there is nothing that cannot be bought.
The old village chief was confused for a while when he heard Lin Su's words, there were too many professional terms and names, which were not at all within the scope of his understanding. But the other party said that he was sure to defend the city, but he understood, so he was happy: "But what?!" Her Majesty can say whatever she wants. ”
Lin Shu glanced at the old village chief: "The guards can be supplemented with the strength of the mechanism, but what about the rangers?!" After all, no one can guarantee that not a single enemy will be able to rush in, and if there is no Ranger to rush through the net, it is likely that the undead will take advantage of this gap to tear through the entire defense. ”
"This ......"
"Little white, little black, little paparazzi and I are going to suppress each of us in one direction, don't beat them." Lin Shu said the words to death first.
The old village chief was embarrassed: "Then what can you do?!" ”
Lin Shu pondered for a moment: "If I can summon people immediately, I do have it, but this has to be agreed by the dragon clan......
When the elder brother of the dragon clan came back, he was surprised when he learned that Lin Shu said that he had a way, and then he shook his head when he heard that there was more manpower: "I don't agree, the more people who know, the more unsafe the dragon's lair is, after all, this is the mainland, in case someone covets it after the dragon clan leaves......"
"Actually, it's not a lot, just add one more person."
"Alone?!" The elder brother of the dragon clan was surprised: "Didn't you say that you should have at least a hundred rangers?!" What's the use of being alone?! ”
"He's alone, but not alone......"
"I'm not fighting alone, either."
Lin Shu despised it: "The ancestors of your clan can give you an increase at most, but they can't give you a clone...... I mean, I happen to know the leader of the wolf clan, and he only summons a whistle, as long as you agree, let me use the magic mirror to discuss with him first and then lift the ban around here, he can bring a group of wolves to help...... "The only pity is that the wolves can't directly form a battle formation, otherwise even the mechanism can be saved."
The elder brother of the dragon clan thought for a moment: "Half-orc leader?!" …… It wouldn't be a big problem if there was only one person, but can he be trusted?! ”
"Personally, I think it's quite credible, but it's up to you." Just kidding, trying to trick her as a guarantor?! Lin Shucai was reluctant to do this kind of thing that was not beneficial and risky, anyway, she thought about it, it was none of her business whether she did it or not, and it was not herself who was remembered to dig the ancestral grave......
The main materials of the mechanism are all kinds of hardwood, copper and iron, and a small number of core locations need some rare materials that are more valuable, in addition to the most important reference data to determine the power and strength of the mechanism are drawings and wood levels.
Needless to say, the drawings can make Lin Su look at the bracelet and stay in it, it is definitely not an ordinary thing, after all, it was once the number one bounty killer in the game, and it was embarrassing to talk to people if the things that were auctioned were not of a certain grade.
And the village itself is located in the mountains, all kinds of wood will naturally not be lacking, the dragon brother accompanied Lin Shu out to fly around, and it was easy to find a lot of high-grade wood in a few forests, and then put it down, packed, and carried back to the village.
In addition to making organs, there is also the necessary preparation work is the city fortifications, not to mention how strong they are, at least there must be a few high places where the organs are placed, right?!
"The load capacity doesn't need to be too high, one or two tons is enough, and the height is best more than 10 meters, so that the strike field of view is also broader......" Lin Shu dragged the drawings and pointed out a few places: "In addition, there is a quicksand array around each mechanism table, so that those who try to rush over and fight the undead creatures can do it without returning......"
"That's a good idea, maybe we can spread the whole village around?!" The old village chief's eyes lit up: "As long as the undead creatures can't cross this quicksand, our village will no longer be threatened by them." ”
"Your ideas are powerful." Lin Shu nodded: "But there is a problem here involving the size of the village, the time-consuming problem of drawing so many quicksand formations, the problem of a large number of magic crystals required when all the sand formations are activated, and the problem of maneuvering when constantly replacing and replenishing magic crystals, etc......., etc., etc., etc."
"Then is it possible to set up quicksand formations around the statue?!" The old village chief still did not lose his fighting spirit after being hit and weakened, and his eyes lit up again after hanging his head for a while: "In this case, wouldn't the entrance to the dragon's den be safer?!" ”
"This idea is very ......" Lin Shu couldn't find an adjective this time, so he asked more humbly: "You mean to let these undead fall directly from the quicksand to the dragon's lair?!" (To be continued)
