On November 8, 2019, the first heavy snow quietly covered the entire Nuwei Peninsula. Pen, fun, and www.biquge.info

As the brownish bare rock formations were covered in snow, the dozen or so remaining factions on the Nuwei Peninsula stopped attacking each other and began to retreat into their sphere of influence, waiting for the beginning of spring next year.

The severe cold of winter in the Northwest Continent actually had little effect on the warriors above the elite level. But the thousand-year-old tradition of winter truces focused on the corpse demons brought all sides to a halt.

On the other hand, after nearly half a year of non-stop fighting, the fighters not only consumed all their physical strength, but also exhausted all their fighting enthusiasm. They were sluggish, mentally exhausted, with torn armor and mutilated knives and guns.

Before the onset of winter, the various forces launched a final war, the main purpose of which was to store or grab enough supplies. Deprived of logistical supplies, the forces can only retreat in disgrace, or surrender to the enemy for their lives.

After this round of war, the power on the island has been reduced by half. Among the remaining forces, the number of people is basically more than 100,000. The only "small force" with only 40,000 people is Pubei Port in the northwest corner of the Nuwei Peninsula.

Even at the height of the war, no force dared to attack Pubei Town. Because there is a cheating here, Yuan Zhengping, the only real person of the Xilai clan.

Despite the presence of real people, the Xilai only guarded their town and never took the initiative. Over time, the forces naturally ignored this group of pirates who had a nuclear deterrent but had no ambition.

But on this day, on the narrow and winding seaway west of Pubei Town, a fleet of ships came.

This fleet consisted of hundreds of ships, large and small, and the cyan flag embroidered with a silver crescent moon was none other than the warship of the Xilai tribe.

Each of the warships had a deep draft and traveled slowly. Fortunately, there was very little wind and waves in the north of the West Sea in winter, so these ships were able to arrive at Pubei Port safe and sound.

On the warship sent to Pubei Port this time, the most important material was millions of steel stone slabs.

Gu Wen was dressed in a cyan cotton robe, full of white hair, and sat peacefully in the luxurious room of a five-masted ship. There were several leaders of the Qinglai clan next to him, and the highest status was a family elder named Zhuo Youchen.

Since sending the design of the fortress and the secret method of steel stone slabs, Gu Wen's status in the Xilai clan has risen like a rocket.

Gu Wen once again rejected Zhuo Zheng's invitation to recruit and politely refused the position of military advisor.

Frankly speaking, the dog-headed military advisor of a group of pirates, this title has always made Gu Wen feel that he can't accept it.

Now Gu Wen's title is the guest secretary of the Xilai tribe, and the chief engineer of the fortress.

Despite the design of the fortress, the ability of the Xilai Clan's builders to construct such an extremely complex ultimate fortress could not be constructed.

Gu Wen designed for Pubei Port Town, which is a seven-star four-layer capped fortress. Seven protruding sharp corners ensure lateral fire in three directions on each concave surface.

The four-tiered wall rises from the inside out, with trenches behind the outermost inclined embankment, and a second triangular fort behind the trenches, with siege crossbows behind it.

Behind it is the second layer of moats, the concave fort, the third layer of moats and the main fort.

The inside of the fortress has multiple layers of hidden passages, shooting, and stabbing holes, and deploys maze arrays, phantom arrays, trapped arrays, and killing arrays.

Although the Qingyun Continent does not have hot weapons, its personal strength far exceeds that of Blue Star, and it can be attacked from a distance with spell arrows and crossbows, and the ordinary city wall is not ideal for the barrier of elite warriors.

Gu Wen's fortress built with steel stone slabs can greatly erase the gap in the number and level of opponents.

It can be said that there is no need for Yuan Zhenren to make a move, just with the 40,000 elites stationed and the 10,000 soldiers added this time, the Pubei Port Fort can easily resist the full attack of any force on the Nuwei Peninsula.

Stationed in Pubei Port, the patriarch's cronies, the great commander of the Zongtian Association, led the crowd to the port to respond, and Zhuo Min's sworn friend, the soft-faced and coarse-voiced Yonghe was also in the team.

Because he had mastered the secret recipe of rubbing juice for steel stone plates, Zhuo Min once again lost the opportunity to go to the Western Continent. For this reason, Dromin fired several times, and even smashed several pieces of the super powerful steel stone slab in a fit of rage.

Zhuo Zheng did not let go, he made up his mind to recruit a son-in-law to ensure that the secret recipe was not obtained by outsiders. It's really not good, just grab a beautiful man at sea and go home, you can also consider it.

Gu Wen walked up to the snow-covered dock through the plank, and couldn't help but secretly scream in his heart: "Qingyun Continent, I, Gu Wen, have finally returned." ”

As a guest secretary and chief engineer, Gu Wen received extremely high treatment, and the Yongtian Association even assigned his son Yonghe as Gu Wen's deputy to lead a team of heroic-level guards to protect Gu Wen.

Of course, that's what surveillance means. Gu Wen's ability made him a piece of fragrant bread of the Xilai clan, and Zhuo Zheng was naturally reluctant to let go of this big fish.

With Gu Wen's performance, he is just a scribe close to the heroic level. This team of twenty elite guards is enough for twenty-four hours of "protection".

Gu Wen didn't care, and he looked flattered. In fact, with Gu Wen's current background, he directly broke out to leave, and even Yuan Zhenren couldn't stop it.

It's just that no matter if the Xilai clan is a pirate, Zhuo Min saved his life, and Gu Wen can't just pick his son and leave.

In Gu Wen's plan, under the chaotic situation in the West Sea, to protect the Xilai clan and let the Xilai clan achieve their desire to return to the mainland, this is the goal that needs to be achieved.

Therefore, Gu Wen had to suppress his homesickness.

After a simple pick-up of the wind and dust, Gu Wen rejected the two bed-warming girls sent by the Yong Tianxie, and started the construction of the fortress early the next morning.

After re-surveying the terrain near Pubei Port, Gu Wen made some revisions to the drawings of the fortress, and then began to instruct the builders to set up temporary shelters not far away, then use ink fountains to mark the latitude and longitude, and began to demolish the town buildings and begin to lay the foundation.

Among the tens of thousands of people brought by Gu Wen this time, most of them were diggers, and these pirates who were at least above the elite level actually rarely participated in the open sea battle. Their main job was to build forts, build bows and ballistas, and maintain ships.

Tens of thousands of people, led by a hundred small leaders, began to tamp the foundation with a large stone plate of rammed earth carried by eight people.

Because of the thousand-year-old erosion of the Death Desert, the maroon rock layer at the bottom has actually become very fragile, and its strength is about the same as the prop bricks used in Blue Star Film and Television, which can be smashed by ordinary people with one punch.

Using these maroon rocks to build city walls or houses is a typical tofu slag project.

There was once a couple of pirates who fought too violently, cut through the wall, fell out of the house, and caused a big joke.

Ten thousand people started together, the efficiency was extremely high, and soon the original place where Pubei Town was located, only a piece of light was left.

The foundation was smoothed, and Gu Wen began to command the excavators to lay the floor tiles with steel and fossil slabs.

The sides of these steeled stone slabs are stamped with the rune of the mother and the son, and when the two sides are touched, they will be firmly glued and difficult to separate.

If it is dismantled with extreme force, both slabs will eventually be damaged. Therefore, Gu Wen was very careful at the beginning, constantly checking whether there were any errors.

Fortunately, the Zhuo family has been operating a quarry for thousands of years, and the error of the steel stone slabs produced by the assembly line is very small. As the diggers became more proficient, the speed of the project began to accelerate.

After laying the foundation in three days, leaving the entrance of the secret door, Gu Wen drew a plan of the seven-star four-layer capped fortress on the foundation, and commanded the diggers to fill the fort with maroon sand to shape the prototype of the fortress, and then lay steel stone slabs on the prototype.

Lay the city walls and fortresses, then deploy hidden passages and mechanisms, build magic circles, and arrange bow and crossbow positions.

Because of the extensive use of prefabricated parts, with the concerted efforts of tens of thousands of people, the fortress is rapidly taking shape day by day.

In a month's time, an ultimate battle fortress that once shone in the Blue Star Middle Ages appeared in the port of Pubei.

Looking at this huge battle fortress with a strange style and majestic and terrifying, tens of thousands of people let out a burst of cheers, which resounded through the heavens and the earth.

Even the villages of other forces hundreds of miles away were alarmed. The sentry in the village poked out in the tower in the direction of Pubei Port. It's just that in the vast snow, there is nothing to be seen.

The sentry cursed secretly: "Wouldn't it be great to have a real person to protect you? Wait until the real person leaves next spring, and see that I don't cut you shrunken turtles to death." ”

The wish of the brave sentinel was soon granted.

After the completion of the fortress, Gu Wen assisted the Retort Heaven Association in training the Xilai warriors on how to rely on the fortress to achieve the most effective defense. After a month of training, the warriors were able to move freely in the bastions, skillfully applying various tactics.

Gu Wen even asked the Heavenly Association to arrange a drill for 5,000 defenders against 40,000 attackers. As a result, the 5,000 defenders beat the 40,000 invaders to the ground.

After the exercise, the Xilai warriors were full of confidence, believing that with the help of the fortress, they were not afraid of any enemy.

So Yuan Zhenren was finally able to retire.

For the Xilai tribe, as long as there are steel stone slabs and fortress blueprints, the Xilai tribe can build an impregnable forward base in the unguarded tidal flats of the Western Continent at any time within a month.

Instead, the quarry on Moon Bay Island is now the most important place. Protecting the secret recipe of rubbing juice and rubbing template has become a top priority. The return of Yuan Zhenren undoubtedly relieved the people of Yuewan Island, who were worried all day long.

Gu Wen stayed in the fortress, after midwinter, spring is approaching, and the real test of the fortress is coming. (To be continued.) )
