Chapter Sixty-Nine: The Battle of the King's Nest
In the vast sea, two east-west clippers set sail and sailed towards Samri Harbor. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. biquge。 info
Tesfil and Guan Renxiu stood at the bow of the boat, exchanging regretfully: "It's a pity! I haven't seen the desert temple, the ancient ruins, and the beautiful bobcat and desert jerboa they talked about......
Brother Long was also very depressed: "There are still a lot of things I haven't eaten, roasted camel meat, cactus fruit, cancer meat, ......"
In fact, he also wanted to say that there are several big sisters who are very enthusiastic about me and have been inviting me to their house to watch goldfish...... If it weren't for my sister watching closely, I would have been hehehe!
Xu Ping'an smiled but did not say a word.
As the eldest, he can see through it: this is a routine!
Money bribes, playing emotional cards, beauty tricks......
What is the most valuable thing about you? I am afraid that it is the kobold command, although it is a misunderstanding.
The locals just want to bring themselves here to destroy the demons at the lowest cost.
It turns out that kobolds are much cheaper than human mercenaries, they just have something to eat, and they are more efficient in combat.
After thinking about it, this routine is not disgusting, anyway, in the end, it was Liu Jingtian and the kobold who had a headache - how do I think that I have become a buyer who eats kickbacks......
Liu Jingtian, who was almost tricked, is now unaware, and he is squatting happily in the Thousand Caves Hill. At the same time, I didn't forget to remotely control the Lizard Fortress, and go all out to carry out spring ploughing matters, and I am already beckoning to myself!
"The output of the nitrate field is good, and it can already replace imported goods. The extraction of sulfur from pyrite has finally seen results! The output is too low, and the reaction process is really troublesome, so it is better to import more sulfur......
It's been a year and two months since I came to this world, and it's really a snap of my fingers.
Unconsciously, Liu Jingtian's body length has grown to one hundred and six centimeters (not counting the tail), and his body size has changed from the size of a corgi to the size of a husky.
However, he still has a large proportion of his head now, accounting for a quarter of his body length, and should belong to the juvenile stage, according to the standards of the pure-blooded dragon clan, he still belongs to the juvenile dragon stage.
But counting the evil minions under his hands, this huge force, I am afraid that the adult dragon will also be willing to bow down.
"Spring ploughing is coming to an end, and you can wipe out Zeklan's demon lair right away! The old man's first gift package to get out of the novice period is you, Kuku Kuku~"
In the crypt, the evil laughter of the Pocket Demon King was heard......
To the north, two large ships entered the port.
The unfinished otherworldly tour group came back with a sigh, not very happy! Discuss with Liu Jingtian to see if you can help?
As a result, everyone saw that the number of dog heads in the Lizard Fortress had skyrocketed to five or six thousand, and many dog heads were squeezed out of the fortress.
"Oh my God! there are already so many kobolds?!"
Liu Jingtian mobilized a large number of troops and other kobolds who were not very important to the type of work, and came to spring sowing together, and did not hesitate to suspend the fighting in the south.
The kobold burned the wasteland during the day, and went out to plow the land and sow seeds after dark, and this side of the river bank was lively and lively, which was very spectacular.
There are columbs and zigzag ploughs, as well as a small number of livestock, plus kobolds have dark vision and can stay up late to work, and spring ploughing is carried out very quickly.
Immediately afterwards, under the noses of human beings, the kobolds had no time to hide, thousands of kobolds packed onto the boat, dozens of 'wooden oxen and horses', plus the large rowing boats mobilized, the mighty fleet rushed to the southern front.
Liu Jingtian's plan naturally doesn't have to be hidden from a few traversers: a general attack and a complete sweep of the local demons!
After a winter of hibernation, the kobolds' professional army has grown to five thousand, and thanks to the harbour trade of the Lizard Fortress, the 'selfless contributions' of the Gotland pirates, and the 'sacrificial' demons of Zekland, the army is now fully gunpowdered.
Today, the arquebus line infantry is still based on companies, with a total of more than 200 dog heads and three people with one arquebus.
In defensive warfare, such musket companies were often temporarily reinforced with an artillery detachment - two six-pounder guns, with a total of thirty gunners, loaders, and craftsmen.
Because of the large number of companies, several experienced company commanders were simply promoted to battalion commanders - Timo, Mary Sue, Ma Qianzhi, and so on. These are all guys who have been full of experience on demons in the winter, and they have some experience with infantry coordination.
Of course, there must be a separate artillery company in the artillery battalion, but this thing is too logistics-intensive, and each artillery company, about nine six-pounder guns, plus a lot of logistics kobolds to help pull the carts.
After four battalions were formed, the remaining more than 1,000 dog heads were directly managed by Liu Jingtian:
An artillery battalion directly under it, about 600 dog heads: a heavy artillery company, a light artillery company, and a mortar artillery company.
The light artillery was a six-pounder gun, a company of nine.
The heavy artillery company had eight twelve-pounder guns -- these were the products of the experiments in the military factory, which were originally intended to be loaded onto ships, and were a bit too powerful to transport and very painful to transport...... In the spirit of not using it in vain, I built some of them first and formed a heavy artillery company, which will be heavy artillery sooner or later anyway.
Not to mention the mortar batteries, which are almost all converted from scrapped twelve-pounder guns, and currently have twelve guns.
There were three musket companies left, which remained in the hands as reserves of the whole army;
and four companies of muskets that were not properly formed, plus a few 'shrunken versions of the six-pounder guns', all of which were left behind to guard the rear forts.
Five thousand kobolds, pulling standardized carts and piled up with combat supplies, crossed the pontoon bridge on the Swallowing Stone River, and marched towards Zeklan, already feeling a little majestic and majestic.
How could several traversers miss such a bustle, and they also pounced on the thousand caves and hills, watching these three-inch dings rolling forward, Liu Jingtian did not refuse, and they all added officials to the knighthood, and all pulled the strong men.
Not far away, the human race is much quieter, and the cohesion of the Brave Hill has also seriously declined recently.
Among the Big Three, the Prophet is best at predicting the movements of demons, but the territory was recovered too quickly, and almost only Zekran remained, and her contribution was only psychological counseling.
And the head of the Siwa regiment also began to 'not do his job', thinking about the benefits from the traverser all day long - human trafficking and port trade are all good business, and the kobolds' cannons are made of patterned steel after all, and if you want to imitate them, you have to save money first.
The remaining Baron Carven was old after all, and he only rested for a winter, and found that the kobold had inflated like a balloon, and he could no longer fight. Now he has begun to think about how to take the family to run away in case the kobold suddenly changes his face.
So, the kobold army marched safely and unhindered, reaching Zekland, a city that was about to be surrounded by 'bunkers'.
