Chapter 160: Defense and the Enemy
In response to the priest's inquiry, Hei Er also directly stated his considerations, but he did not say his specific role, but instead sold the guanzi.
"Increase the intensity of attacking the Savage Behemoths?, so how did you increase it?" White Fang said directly after hearing Black Er's explanation.
"Haha, White Fang, you don't know that. You guess first, give you three chances, if you can't guess, I'll tell you the reason, hehe. Hearing White Fang's question, Black Ear said to him a little teasingly, his eyes were full of smiles, and there was a trace of pride in them, he believed that White Fang must have been unexpected.
"Oh, what's the use, you don't want to sell it, black-eared, hurry up. Looking at Hei Er's faint expression of triumph, Su Ming couldn't help but speak, hoping that Hei Er would explain quickly, in fact, he was also very curious about its function.
"Okay, then I'll say it. It was not long after I arrived, and I went down to the foot of the mountain to observe the terrain outside, and on the ridge, I accidentally found a hole, which was about the same height as the long city wall, so I climbed up to take a look.
Guess what, the entrance to the cave looked small, and after walking into the cave for about a dozen steps, I found that the space inside was indeed very large.
Standing at the entrance of the cave and looking down, the field of vision was very wide, so I thought, can we dig a passage out and arrange some giant crossbows here, so that the wild beasts can shoot from both sides when they attack the city wall. After hearing Su Ming's words, seeing that the leader and the priest were all eager looks, Hei Er also felt that it was almost the same, and he didn't sell it, and directly said his discovery and his vision for future defense.
"Well, in this way, this stone staircase leads directly to the cave?" After listening to Hei Er's narration, White Fang also suddenly realized, it turned out to be such a function, no wonder he couldn't guess it.
"Yes, and I have already started digging in the cave, and now there are so many clansmen from the third layer of the Exercises in the tribe, with their help, I believe that before the Wild Beasts attack, it will be possible to penetrate the passage from the cave to this side and arrange a new type of giant crossbow. ”
"Well, I think the idea of Hei Er is very good, but we can directly dig a cave in the opposite mountain range, and when the time comes, we can shoot at the wild beasts from left and right, and besiege them on three sides, which will have a huge effect on guarding the mountain pass and reducing the danger of defense. ”
Under Hei'er's explanation, at this time, the leader also figured out the trick, looking at the countless white bones below and always had a serious expression, at this time he was also relaxed, and the worry in his heart about the possibility of suffering huge losses was reduced a lot. "For this matter, I fully support, all the fighters who came with me, let them rest for a day first, and tomorrow the fighters who broke through to the third layer of the exercises, all of them will come over to help dig the cave and strive to break through as soon as possible. ”
Hearing the chief's words, Black Ear was very happy, although he had a high influence in the tribe and could mobilize warriors to help, but his status and duties limited him to do so, because he was a priest's assistant.
Now is not the time when he was out on the march, with complete autonomy of the troops, and now these new warriors from the tribe have not been authorized by the tribe, and they cannot be transferred privately. Although, with his prestige, he could command the warriors who came to dig caves.
After all, the tribal leader is the tribal leader, and the righteousness is on his side, and the warriors of the entire tribe are at his disposal, and the system and rules within the tribe cannot be messed up.
But now with the full support of the leader Lie, all this has become justified, and Hei Er can let go of his hands and feet to do a big job, how can this not make him happy.
"Rest assured, Chief, I will definitely take care of this matter. Hei Er patted his chest directly and said loudly, he had full confidence in completing this matter.
After visiting the entire fortifications on the city wall, Su Ming and the others went directly back to the camp below the city wall, although there were still countless tents there, but a large number of residential houses had also been built there.
It is here that these warriors of the Fire Tribe will live here for a long time, guarding this mountain pass and preventing the attacks of the wild beasts.
In a newly built house, Su Ming and the others all gathered together, discussing the situation of watching the fortifications today, as well as the discussion of the upcoming alliance of the three clans, the atmosphere was sometimes serious and depressing, sometimes relaxed and cheerful.
"Hei Er, you went down there to investigate, so how much information did you know about those wild beasts?" the priest first questioned Black Ear to find out the details of the investigation.
"Based on my research on the rocky walls, as well as the bones of the behemoths, I can learn some useful information. So far, three types of Savage Behemoths have been identified.
One is the strength type, most of them are huge in size and extremely powerful, but most of these wild beasts directly hit the city wall when attacking, but after this reinforcement, they no longer have much threat. The main thing to pay attention to is which giant beasts are bigger than the city walls.
One is the agile type, although their size is also very large, but they are faster, when charging, they can jump directly on the city wall, my next plan is to install some black iron barbs on the city wall, which can reduce the number of rushing to the city wall at the same time, with the giant crossbow, there are warriors who can defend.
There is the last type, which is the flying ones, which are not only huge, but also attack from the air, which is the most difficult to defend. So I'm modifying the new Megaballa, but I'm still not sure that it can be 100% defensible.
I speculate that this will be the focus of casualties among fighters in combat. Hei Er seriously explained in detail what he had investigated on the spot and what he had learned from the Tooth Tribe, especially when it came to flying savage beasts, his tone was also low and depressed, and he was also dissatisfied that he had not found a countermeasure.
Flying Behemoths, there is nothing to threaten them except for the new Giant Crossbow, which is a difficult problem.
"Do you know, those flying behemoths are they? Are there any of us familiar with?" Su Ming was also shocked when he heard that there were still flying behemoths, but he still asked Hei Er about it, and only when he knew the detailed information could he formulate corresponding measures.
"It's very difficult to deal with, and the warriors of the Tooth Tribe said that there are two main categories of flying beasts. A bird, and a mammal.
Birds are like bald heads, they are some giant eagles, giant falcons and the like, as long as they can dodge at the first time of their raid, there is no danger, as long as they land on the ground, their strength is not very strong, a few ordinary warriors can solve it.
But the beasts are not easy to solve, according to their descriptions, the mountain passes we are guarding now, those flying beasts, should be the main force of flying lizards. ”
Black Ear was also extremely worried about what he learned, especially when he knew that there were still many flying lizards among the flying beasts.
