In fact, the red fruit grass exceeded Lin Xiao's expectations, after a few days of planting, the workers just planted the seeds in the land, and the next day it sprouted. Pen | fun | pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ

They grow so fast that they can mature in more than 20 days and be harvested in less than 40 days.

And that's not even the most terrifying thing, the workers cut off the red fruit grass of the insect star a few days ago, leaving only the roots that looked useless.

But unexpectedly, these roots have already sprouted new shoots, and it seems that they will be able to recover in less than 10 days, and the fruits will be harvested in 20 days.

After learning this, Lin Xiao did not hesitate, and directly dispatched 20 workers to reclaim it, specifically for planting red fruit grass, leaving a part for planting hemp and cotton.

A month later, a workshop area had been established next to the colonial warship, with hundreds of workers as laborers.

The production of tools and weapons for work was also on track, especially the problem of clothing, which was finally alleviated after the manufacture of the loom was completed.

The most important food problem was solved 10 days ago, and the workers reclaimed 500 acres of farmland, and the crawler transport truck played a big role.

It was only necessary to load the manufactured plough on the back of the crawler transporter, and it was very easy to clear the land.

Among them, 100 acres of red fruit grass has reached the harvest time, and a large number of red fruits have been harvested.

This is also the result of Lin Xiao's recombination of genes, one mu of land can harvest more than 1,000 catties of red fruits in a month, and one hundred mu can be consumed by 10,000 people for a month.

In this process, there was also something strange to Lin Xiao, the progress of his planet's will had increased inexplicably, and he had not been sure what the reason was until now, but this was also good news, maybe he didn't have to wait until 100 years later.

At present, there is enough food, and the people under his command will definitely not be able to eat it all, and the remaining red fruits can be dried and stored, and the shelf life is no less than that of rice.

Since he has established himself in this place, he has also given it a name, otherwise it is really inconvenient sometimes.

Based on the scout's explorations, a map was drawn on the cloth, and he named the area he was located in Xiaozhou, after him.

There are a large number of mountains to the east of Xiaozhou, which are occupied by ant-monsters, and according to the exploration of the scouts, a large number of ant-monsters have appeared at 20 kilometers, and the number is no less than 1,000.

10 kilometers to the north, there are beetles, with only a few more than 100 of them.

These two kinds of insects are very threatening to Lin Xiao, especially the beetle, which is the size of an adult buffalo, which is not at all comparable to the antmonster.

Lin Xiao has the shell of the beetle monster here, and the pikemen can only pierce a little bit with the steel spear head, which is nothing more than breaking the muscles and bones.

This kind of monster, he hasn't provoked it yet, but he has to guard against it.

Lin Xiao doesn't go to the trouble of the beetle monster, it doesn't mean that the beetle monster doesn't come to him for trouble, once he is targeted, more than a month of business will be ruined, and the colonial warship doesn't know if it can block the impact of this monster.

In order to protect himself, he can only develop as soon as possible, and be able to destroy the beetles before they attack!

But if you want to develop, you need a population, and the population needs energy points, and the main source of energy points is ant monster eggs.

Lin Xiao didn't know the hatching cycle of the eggs, judging from the information he obtained, it seemed that the eggs were about to hatch, and 1 energy point would become 0.1 energy points if nothing else, so now was the last time to rob the ant monster.

There are two targets for robbery, one is the thousand ant monsters in the east of Xiaozhou, and the other is the ant monsters on the star insects, the number is not less than 3,000.

He now only has 1,600 energy points in his hand, which is the result of a month of non-stop hunting, and two workers have died for it.

With all these power points cloned by the daggers, there are 150 people, and with the pikemen, it shouldn't be a problem to eat 1,000 antlibukes.

However, it still needs to be planned well, Lin Xiao currently only has 40 sets of armor and 100 sets of leather armor in his hands.

The whole body armor was put aside for the time being, after all, too much steel was needed, and a set of full body armor was enough to make 10 knives, and all the equipment could not afford it at all.

If all the sword soldiers are cloned, the number of people is up, and there is not enough armor, but the casualties will definitely be not small, which is what Lin Xiao does not want to see.

The sword and shield soldiers used for defense have been valued by Lin Xiao, the energy points required by the sword and shield soldiers are only 15, and the requirements for the shield are not very large, and the wooden shield can be equipped.

Since it has been decided to clone the sword and shield soldiers, the long-range troops are also under Lin Xiao's consideration, which can pose a threat to the antriqu leader.

As for the expensive cavalry, Lin Xiao also considered it, but he didn't have horse genes, so he couldn't clone it.

Without further consideration, he directly cloned 40 sword and shield soldiers, using 900 energy, and then cloned 10 archers, 40 pikemen, and 10 workers, and the remaining 600 energy points were also used.

As the main force of the sword and shield soldiers, Lin Xiao directly equipped them with the best armor at present.

Shortbowmen don't need to fight the ant-monsters in close quarters, they can be equipped with leather armor, and the newly cloned pikemen are also equipped with leather armor.

After three days of rest, Lin Xiao let the new clones come out and learn from the pikemen, so that they can intuitively see their strength.

Among them, the shortbow soldiers have the weakest melee strength, and even the scouts can't beat them, and they are killed by close quarters, but they are ranged troops, so they can ignore these.

The shortbows made by the workers are so powerful that they can easily shoot through the antlisk's body, probably killing an antlisk with two arrows, or one arrow if you're lucky.

The short building cabin should have adjusted the genes, the arm muscles of the archers are generally very developed, they can shoot 50 arrows in an hour on average, and they can shoot 10 arrows in a minute without intermittent, and the accuracy will drop a lot, and then they need to rest for a while.

It's not that the archers are not strong, archery is also a physical job, and it is difficult for ordinary people to draw a full bow.

And there are no materials for the production of arrow feathers, and the accuracy of the arrow will drop a lot, but fortunately, this has a relatively small impact on the short bow, and it is not a big problem within 30 meters.

The strength of the sword and shield soldiers is not bad, and the pikemen will soon be defeated by them in a heads-up, even if the number is equal, the pikemen will lose more than they win.

The shield protection is too domineering, and it can be completely resisted, destroy the pikemen's formation, and defeat them.

Lin Xiao also thought about equipping the pikemen with shields, but this group of guys was not suitable for anything other than spears at all, and they lost even more.

With such a result, he had no choice but to give up.

All the soldiers were armed, and each was armed with at least two weapons, which could be spared.

This is also one of the reasons why Lin Xiao can't make full-body armor, it is very common for weapons to be damaged on the battlefield, and a soldier generally needs to be equipped with 3 weapons.

What's more, the enemy they face is an antlibe, and they can't capture weapons, and all weapons can only be brought by themselves.

This time, Lin Xiaoke used all his troops, adding up to more than 100 people, including 20 workers as logistics.

In order to minimize losses, Lin Xiao was also ready to go to the battlefield, so he specially created a set of heavy full-body armor, weighing 50 kilograms, which can create hundreds of steel knives, and ordinary people will get tired and lie down after wearing them without walking a few steps.

With such an expensive armor, Lin Xiao could afford to use it, and he was not stingy with his own protection.

Chocolate won't be idle, because she is mainly sensitive, and she hasn't made such heavy armor, a set of leather armor made of beetle monster shells is enough for her.

Lin Xiao also asked the workers to make a pair of steel hand armor hooks for chocolate, her claws were sharp, but they were also easy to get hurt.

The last time Chocolate's claws were broken, and she almost cried in pain, but Lin Xiao comforted her for a few days before recovering.

Even now that Chocolate's claws have grown, Lin Xiao feels that it is better to let her use a weapon after all, and the lethality of the weapon is not much worse than that of a claw.

This claw-like weapon, the chocolate was not repulsed, and he happily accepted it.

Now that everything was ready and the weather was sunny as usual, Lin Xiao didn't waste any more time and ordered the troops to go straight to the antmonster's lair!

This was also the first time that Lin Xiao had traveled so far to attack the ant monster, and when he was only about 3 kilometers away from the ant monster, he asked the soldiers to stop.

Although Lin Xiao had never fought, he also knew that it was not appropriate to attack now, especially the sword and shield soldiers, the silver-white armor on their bodies was more majestic than the brown leather armor, and at the same time, they were also very bulky, and the rapid march made them sweat profusely.

The next battle will consume a lot of physical strength, and he can withstand it, but the soldiers may not be able to bear it.

Ordering the troops to rest on the spot, Lin Xiao came to the mountain on the side, looked into the distance, and observed the surrounding terrain.

This time he not only has to face the ant-monsters in the best condition, but also occupies the favorable terrain!
