Chapter 26: Building a Fortress
Send troops to check, the previous ant-monster has retreated, and it should have been driven away by the beetle. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info
Lin Xiao immediately sent workers to build fortifications, and the watchtower was abandoned by him and replaced with a fortress, which was much stronger than the watchtower.
Taking advantage of the fact that the ant-monsters did not react, the workers hurried to start construction, and the construction of a fortress capable of accommodating 100 people was quickly completed.
It is said that only 100 people can be stationed, but Lin Xiao can increase his troops through the spatial crack and maintain the number of 100 people.
During this period, a small number of ant-monsters came to attack the fortress, and were ruthlessly killed by the soldiers inside, scaring away the follow-up ant-monsters.
Knowing that the fortress was firmly nailed to it like a nail, Lin Xiao had other thoughts.
He sent scouts to search a radius of 100 kilometers around the colonial warships, and found that there were very few resources, basically wasteland, and there were not even insects.
Due to the large number of felling, the already small number of trees is even more scarce, and all of them will be cut down in less than a month.
Not only that, but the coal mine discovered before was about to be dug up, and when he opened God's perspective, there was still no trace of coal at all.
Without coal, power generation is a problem, and even if charcoal can be used instead, it is now almost gone.
Sending people to Xiaozhou could not find resources, so Lin Xiao mainly focused on the insect star, where there was a large forest enough for him to cut, maybe he could find coal mines, and even oil might be hopeful.
Bugstar was also very dangerous, and he didn't want to take such a risk at first, but the damaged colonial warship made him wary.
The colonial warship was clearly under attack, and the attackers might come to the door, and by then the advanced technology would have made these soldiers who kneaded themselves like ants.
Maybe the other party is not interested in him, but don't go, he is the will of the planet, and he will be attacked 100%.
Until then, it's better for him to develop as soon as possible, and it's better to occupy a territory in the Worm Star.
When the other party comes to the door, you can also go to the insect star to avoid it, and stay up to 100% of the planet's will progress.
With this thought, he began to increase his troops to the Insect Star, using the fortress as a garrison, expanding step by step.
In addition to the insect star, the second spatial crack that was discovered before, he also sent troops to check it, and found that it was a large desert.
The environment of the desert is very harsh, and not only did they not get useful information when they searched around, but many scouts died in the desert.
At present, the desert is not something that Lin Xiao can provoke, and he doesn't really want to waste manpower and material resources, so he only sends troops to garrison next to the spatial crack, just in case.
Soon, the fortress built by Lin Xiao in the insect star was attacked by the ant monsters, and they paid a lot of money, and only gave up after finding it difficult to capture.
Lin Xiao didn't plan to let go of the ant monster, the ant monster's eggs had already hatched a batch, and within 10 days, they should all be hatched.
It was a lot of energy points, and he didn't want to watch what he had to do.
Wearing armor, he personally went to the fortress to garrison, and there are currently 3 fortresses of the Worm Star, forming a triangle that can support each other.
The first was reinforced and expanded to accommodate 1,000 soldiers, and the walls were 4 meters wide and 8 meters high, making them impossible for even beetles to shake.
The other fortresses were not so strong, only 2 meters wide and 4 meters high.
Lin Xiao's task was to stay in the first fortress, he was like a star in the night, attracting the attention of all the ant monsters as soon as he appeared.
There was no need to take the initiative to find the ant-monster, and suddenly a large number of ant-monsters came directly to the door, the number of which was not less than 3,000, and launched an attack on the first fortress.
The defense is very beneficial to Lin Xiao's side, he has all changed to short archers, and he doesn't need to aim too much, and if a wave of arrows rains down, he can kill a lot of ant monsters.
But the corpses accumulated by these ant-monsters give subsequent ant-mons a chance to climb the city wall, and under the drive of the ant-monster leader, they will also use their bodies to pile up as a stepping stone for the ant-monsters behind.
Lin Xiao would not sit idly by, lit the wolf smoke, and transmitted the signal to the two fortresses in front.
The soldiers stationed on both sides of the ant-monster then launched an attack, sending a rain of arrows to cover the ant-monster, double covering it, and no ant-monster could dodge.
Even the ant-monster leaders who hid in the ant colony were not spared, and several crossbows to defend the city were the most credited.
Originally, the leader of the antlion also guarded the fortresses on both sides and deliberately stayed away, but it did not know that even if it was out of the range of the shortbowmen, it was within the range of the crossbow guarding the city.
Coupled with the fact that the soldiers of the forts on both sides did not attack at first, the antlion leader took it lightly and paid with his life.
There are no antliqu leaders, and the remaining ordinary antmons only know that there is no brainstorm, and at least a very small number of intelligent antmons are waiting.
The clever bugs can't drive the ordinary ant-monsters, they are scattered in a mess, and they can't even pile up the flesh wall before, they just want to be the first to rush the wall.
As a result, not a single bug will be able to come up and be easily slaughtered by the shortbowmen, and they will not run away.
The hill of ant-monster corpses grew higher and higher, and finally one of them was able to step on the bones of their own kind and leap onto the city wall to fight back against these butchers who killed their own kind.
But they were greeted not by shortbowmen, a class of soldiers with weak melee skills, but pikemen in leather armor.
The leather armor on their bodies is still made of the shell of the ant-monster, and even if the ant-monster is not intelligent, it is angry with them.
But it didn't work......
The pikemen are condescending, there are more people, and there are short bowmen on the side, occupying such a big advantage, there is no problem with Ping A in the past.
The ant monster that finally rushed up was either stabbed to death, or repulsed, and fell under the city wall, and the efforts just now were in vain.
There were more and more 'hills' piled up under the walls, and there were more and more places for the ant-goons to step on, and the archers were gradually replaced by pikemen.
The ant-monsters rushed up, but it didn't put too much pressure on the pikemen, who paid a great price for rushing up, and there were less than a hundred ant-monsters left.
The ant-monsters did not escape the fate of death, they were too greedy, they remained on the battlefield, and were besieged and killed by the soldiers of the forts on both sides.
Minutes passed, and the last antbasel was stabbed, and the battle ended.
Lin Xiao now looked down on the corpses all over the ground, although there were no less than 3,000 corpses, and directly ordered the soldiers to go to the ant monster's lair and bring all the insect eggs over.
Lin Xiao himself didn't go in person, he wanted to go in person, but he was afraid of attracting ant monsters from other places, and it would be another war.
There was no accident going out, and the people sent out were quickly transported by all the eggs, and there were more than 20,000 after the inventory.
Lin Xiao's performance was relatively calm, and now only 20,000 energy points could not make him excited, at least 100,000!
