The Baron, Baron Pullman, was worried, and he received an order from the Duke that he could command the brigade alone and face the turn of events at his own discretion.

There is nothing hidden from it, the spatial barrier, it is possible that it will never disappear.

He was going to make sure that five hundred men would defend the castle, no, not just five hundred, he also brought a dozen technicians, a few mages, some warlocks who were good at calculations.

There is a lot of raw coal in the warehouse under the castle, because it was originally a transit station, and it was intended to transport materials for construction in the harbor, and there are several similar transfer stations.

A small plantation factory, just underground, is enough to supply 500 people.

In his own team, it is considered to be in a full state, and in the logistics team, there are construction robots, and the maintenance of the planting plant is not a problem.

There is no alchemy factory, but if you can make up a workshop, the factory parts can be made and replaced by yourself.

But how many years can it last?

Pullman wasn't really desperate, but he had to think about his soldiers. You know, staying in this narrow space all the time, people will go crazy.

When I first trained, there was a similar space in the illusion.

Let the soldier get used to solitude, so that it is easy to be trapped in extreme environments. But it was an illusion that had adjusted the flow of time, and it was not particularly real, and the soldiers were used to a predicament of three to four months at most.

No matter how long it is, it can't hold on, it's something that can't be helped.

It didn't take long for the people who commanded the squadron to come to the upper floor of the castle, and Baron Pullman said: "Very bad news, the space blockade, I don't know how long it will take." ”

Everyone was silent, commanding the squadron was the core of the entire brigade, mainly based on spellcasters. Battlemages are large in number and are calmer in the face of difficult situations.

"I'm planning to hold on to the castle for a long time and send robots to explore the surrounding area. Then, there is no illusion in our castle, and everyone's psychology will be very uncomfortable, and as time goes by, the situation may get worse and worse. ”

"We're trying to create an illusion?" said one of the magicians.

"It's not that you can't, you're the highest level here, how many levels?"

"Thirty levels. ”

"Look, our brigade, there is only one epic mage, relying on your strength, the cost of creating an illusion is not low, right?"

"It's not too expensive. ”

"What about running costs?"

The magician stopped talking, yes, it wasn't a problem for him to refine the illusion, but the cost of maintaining the illusion would be huge. Anyone can create an illusion, why don't other great nobles train soldiers in this way?

The Nine Academies only use the illusion to train mages, not the academy mercenaries.

Because of the cost, only the illusion created by the Duke himself, the cost of use can be reduced. It is true that a lot of raw coal and crystals are stored in the lower layer of the castle, but it is really not enough to maintain the operation of the phantom array.

Another great magician said, "Otherwise, we will only create a super-small illusion, anyway, I know the underlying magic language." Ensure that the consumption is very small, and you can't use it for training, just go in and enjoy the food or something. As a reward for soldiers. ”

"This one does. Baron Pullman immediately said, "Then everyone hurry up, find a space underground, and refine an ultra-small illusion." ”

He had trained on the Xia River side, and he knew how important the psychological factors of soldiers were to war.

Baron Pullman should be glad that he has enough supplies here, and he can also take into account that in the hearts of the soldiers, some small fortresses do not have so much raw coal, and they do not have the manpower and materials to refine the illusion.

In addition, in the planting factory in Xiahe, the seeds of all crops are not treated with technology, that is, the crops you grow, collect the seeds yourself, and you can plant the next batch.

These crops are carefully selected, and the degradation of the seeds will not happen for a hundred generations.

"Your Excellency, all weapons have been inspected and are in a state of combat readiness. A soldier ran up to report.

Baron Pullman nodded, and gave the order to leave the castle one last time and patrol the surroundings, surveying every inch of space.

The location of the castle is on the south side of the Great Wall. Eight squads were dispatched, two in each direction, carrying a large number of cyborg warriors.

The space left for Baron Pullman was small, with a radius of fifteen miles.

Of course, his original barony was not so big, but the barony had communication with the outside world. These five hundred people are locked in this space, and the feeling is completely different.

Baron Pullman also ordered all the magicians to compile books or extract information directly from their equipment.

The magician's communication equipment itself is like the intelligent computing core of the technological world, with a lot of messy things stored. Usually it's closed, because the magicians don't know what those things are for.

Let the soldiers read, study, this is the choice of Baron Pullman.

In addition to technical books, there are also some dramas, poems, and other literary and artistic works.

For several days, the men who commanded the squadron surrounded Baron Pullman, and the orders issued by the baron were quickly carried out. With the baron, this team has the backbone. For the first time, Pullman felt that he was so important, that as a leader, he was responsible for those below.

He was calm because there was a special mark in the order given by Fire Raven One, and when he encountered something that exceeded the strategic level marked by the dukedom, he could contact the duke.

In other words, Duke Asra was not completely cut off from the news, but the cost of contacting him once was too great, so big that it was greater than he consumed all the materials in the castle. He can also understand this, he is a level twenty-five magician himself, and understands that it is almost impossible for the spatial barrier to break through.

However, such a powerful spatial barrier is not easy to maintain, and it should disappear on its own, right?

That one's task is actually not to protect the fortress, but to ensure that before the spatial barrier disappears, let his soldiers live well, and there will be no mental problems.

On the front line of the Great Wall, situations like Pullman have been staged repeatedly.

Basically, forts are garrisoned at least the size of one brigade. There will also be smaller forts, and there will also be two squadrons of people.

These forts have the ability to make simple supplies for the passing army, so although the raw coal stored is not as large as Baron Pullman, it is also a lot of it, and it is not a problem to support it for several years.

The original purpose of the fort was also to store supplies.

Because there are demons everywhere, mobile combat armies, it is impossible to carry enough things with them, so there must be a supply point every other distance.

"Lord Baron!

A magician shouted loudly, the upper level of the fortress, the office that had been used as a warning, the place where the baron rested, was next to the office.

In the office, there is a small phantom array, but it is not an entry type, it is the command center of the brigade.

The cyborg warriors were still patrolling the perimeter, and in the northern part of the Great Wall, an army suddenly appeared.

"What's that!" cried a magician.

"It's a goblin!"

"Goblins, Otherworldly Goblins?"

"No, I look at it, how do it look like it's described in the book?"

Baron Pullman came to the office and watched the image transmitted by the robot, and the team in the distance, dressed in strange armor, rode in a strange chariot. Behind the warriors, they carried a huge magic musket, which was quite conspicuous even if it was not compared to their size.

"Go up to the Great Wall!" Baron Pullman gave the order, calling two squadrons of men to enter the top of the Great Wall from the north gate of the castle.

The castle is twenty-five meters high, and the Great Wall has a height of twenty meters, and the drop is not large.

The castle itself is part of the Great Wall system, and it is not easy to enter the castle from the Great Wall, and it was taken into account when it was built. However, the Great Wall itself is a transportation road and a defense system, and it is not a problem to use the Great Wall as the first line of defense.

Flying robots rise rapidly, these goblins have magic muskets, and the distance of precise attacks may not be very good, but the killing range is still very large, and they can shoot people from hundreds of meters away.

Baron Pullman's brigade can only repair robots, not make them independently, and the computing core is destroyed, so the robots of this unit are considered to have disappeared from the establishment. There are more than 5,000 robots in the entire brigade, but the spare computing core is only a hundred in the hands of Baron Pullman.

He wasn't worried about the two hundred or so goblins, but where did the goblins come from in the enclosed space?

If more than 200 goblins can appear, more enemies will come.

The soldiers of the two squadrons, standing on the Great Wall, looked at the goblins approaching in the distance, both a little nervous. They're all veterans, nervous because of this weird enclosed space lately.

Baron Pullman said: "We save magic projectiles, shoot them accurately, and test them with technological muskets to see if we can effectively kill them." ”

Because it was determined that there were goblins in front, Baron Pullman didn't plan to communicate, but directly prepared to attack.

There are cannons in the castle, but large magic projectiles cannot be produced here, or the production speed is extremely slow, and it has to be completed by magicians by hand.

The castle serves as a supply point, mainly for energy, not for ammunition.

Since the closure of the space, even the power generation center on the lower level of the castle has reduced the power generation by 90%, only maintaining the consumption of lighting, air purification and circulation, planting factory production, and robot charging. At night, there is also a light control.

The power generation center of the wizarding world, how much demand there is, how much electricity is generated, will not cause waste.

Baron Pullman was careful and didn't think that he would get out of the predicament in a short time, so this battle can't be wasted too much. The new projectile cannot be refined by hand by magician, and the structure is too complex and requires the magical machinery of a large alchemy factory.

What a magician can make by hand is an old-fashioned projectile.

Since it's handmade, don't think about the yield. If there are too many enemies, everyone may have to think about hand-to-hand combat in the future.

The goblins had already seen the city walls, and they had telescopes in their hands, and at a distance of a kilometer, the goblins howled and began their charge.
