Chapter 31: The Founding of the City

After the crowd dispersed, Helena and Niu Dali walked into the humble lord's mansion together, the little fox's originally pale face finally had a trace of blood after resting for 7 days, but now his face was full of solemnity and worry, no more than the ordinary lords who were inspired by the old cow's blood boiling in a few words, as a rare elite class in the orc empire, she knew that war was not as simple as shouting a few words and desperately.

Facing Niu Dali's back, Helena said anxiously: "We need to immediately ask for help from the Governor's Mansion and the Temple of the God of War in Blackstone City, but it will be up to the sky if Blackstone City can send 3,000 troops over, but unfortunately the Blackstone Great Wasteland is too big, whether it is to gather scattered tribes or let the empire transfer troops from other provinces, it will not be able to catch up with the attack of the Douglas family's private troops." ā€

Niu Dali gave up the only chair to Helena, sat on the desk by himself, and said calmly: "Yes, I plan to send someone to ask for help early tomorrow morning, and then I still have a lot of plans, hoping to play a role in the next big war." ā€

The fox priestess's eyes lit up, and the little dwarf seemed to have a lot of other ways, thinking of the miracles brought by Niu Dali several times, the fox priestess's high heart was lowered a little.

On the humble desk, Niu Dali was writing and drawing on the blank parchment, and Helena on the side put forward her own opinions from time to time, until late at night, a series of plans that were synthesized by the two brightest minds of the Borg collar were made.

Helena, who originally thought that she already knew the little dwarf very well, was shocked several times, the plan proposed by the little dwarf was crazy and bold, and if you think about it carefully, it really works in this difficult situation.

Finally, in Niu Dali's eyes full of longing, the little fox ran back to his room to sleep, and quickly left a sentence: "As long as this war is won, I will agree to your request, and now sleep obediently." ā€œ

Smelling the lingering scent of foxes in the air, the old cow had a beautiful dream all night......

Early the next morning, Niu Dali, who had not even eaten breakfast, sent out a long list of orders, starting with the centaur messenger carrying Niu Dali and Helena's handwritten letters, asking for help from the Governor's Palace and the Temple of the God of War respectively.

In addition, there are dozens of messengers rushing to the wilderness, as long as all the large and small tribes that can be found are notified, the Modo Knight Lord of the Borg Collar will face the attack of the human army, and the Borg Collar now needs to hire a large number of warriors, even if they don't help in the battle, they can help build defenses.

As long as you accept employment, you can accept a variety of payment methods, weapons, armor, food, gold coins, farm tools, and even daily necessities.

Yes, that's right, Niu Dali actually plans to build a strong city in two months, at least all the people can be loaded, and enough supplies will be stored.

Hearing this crazy plan last night, the fox priestess opened her mouth in surprise, you must know that Black Rock City, the provincial capital of Kona Province with 20,000 people, is enough for the Lance family to build for several generations, although Niu Dali is planning to make the city small, but the huge amount of work is still daunting.

Niu Dali counted his fingers and calculated with Helena, the stone is everywhere in the black stone wilderness, and you don't have to run too far to collect enough stones, and the leaders originally planned to help Lord Modo build a strong castle, and they have spontaneously hoarded a lot of rectangular stones.

What's more, Niu vigorously guaranteed that he could make a magical adhesive material, which could not only make the stones firmly bonded together, but also speed up the construction speed countless times, theoretically as long as there were enough people, more than two months were enough to build this small city.

Three miles long and two miles wide, this is the final area of the newly built city, and it is estimated that it will be crowded for people from all over the territory to live in, but it is better than being killed outside the city. The original farming brigade and construction brigade in the territory, plus the new orcs and more than a hundred mercenary prisoners, Niu vigorously gathered nearly 3,000 people and began to dig the foundation of the city wall.

The original mining team and transportation team, as well as the steel base's manpower Niu Dali, did not move, but they had originally hoarded a lot of armor and weapons, and now they are making every effort to build the tools for building the city and several city defense equipment designed by Lao Niu himself.

I have to say that the thirteen ogres are rice buckets at the same time, and they are also as fast as small excavators, wielding special large farm tools, and the speed is particularly outrageous, and it is even more outrageous that the fox priestess came over every two hourglasses to bless a war song blessing, so that the ogres can fly.

It only took five days for the foundation of the two-meter-deep and five-meter-wide city wall to be dug up, and the price paid was that the leaders paid more than fifteen hourglass hours a day, and everyone was pressed by the pressure on their shoulders to work hard.

Then the leaders searched for suitable stones in the wilderness and polished them into suitable stones, and the old cow quickly led a group of people to start making the mysterious adhesive he had promised...... Soil cement.

When the kobolds were digging for iron ore, they dug up a lot of limestone, and piled it up into several mountains of gravel as useless things, and the manpower knocked the gravel into more pieces, and then grinded it into powder on a large iron mill that was hurriedly made, and the main force of the grinding was the Kodo beast that the old cow had once again cheekily borrowed from the fox priestess.

The limestone powder was mixed with clay and began to be calcined in the earthen kiln, and after adding gypsum, it was ground again and again, and after several days of experimenting back and forth, the gray-headed Niu Dali finally made a usable clay cement.

Remembering the second year of junior high school in the previous life, the grandfather of the family was seriously ill, and after spending the family's small savings, the underage Niu Dali could only work as a porter in the cement factory in the county seat, while taking care of the hospitalized old man, and the salary method based on tonnage made Niu Dali work hard, and the 14-year-old boy did more than two adults every day, but unfortunately the old man held on for a few months or passed, and the lonely Niu Dali finally embarked on the road of no return to the mixed society.

In those few months as a porter, Lao Niu had a preliminary understanding of the manufacturing principle of cement, thanks to the rich mineral deposits under the barren surface of the Black Stone Wasteland, so that Lao Niu's knowledge of fur could be used.

Ten days after sending envoys, one tribe after another finally sent manpower, although most of them did not accept the employment of fighting, but at least let the manpower for work be surplus day by day.

The strong labor force has a silver coin or the same price of goods every day, the sturdy woman is paid in half, and each meal can be eaten and drunk, and the rich reward makes the tribe that receives the news almost empty nest, and the old man and the half-old boy have come a lot to help do what they can, just to have a full meal.

A month later, more than 30,000 orc laborers gathered on the construction site of the city led by Borg, and the logistics brigade of more than 1,000 people was almost overwhelmed by the daily meals, and the food was consumed rapidly, but the effect was also obvious, and the newly built city walls were growing at a rate visible to the naked eye.

Fortunately, the nobles who had reached a bargain in Black Rock City sent a caravan to pick up the goods brought a caravan full of grain.

Unloading the grain, loading the steel products of the Borgling, and making up the difference to the Borgling, the caravan that completed the transaction had to know the news of the imminent arrival of the Glass family's private army, and left quickly, and none of them expressed their willingness to stay and help.

What's even more excessive is a caravan that is said to be supported by Dorant, and the leader arrogantly tells Lao Niu that as long as his caravan accounts for eighty percent of the steel industry in the Borg Territory, he can let the lords of the Borg Village go to Blackstone City to accept refuge.

If he could run, Lao Niu would run away as soon as possible, but if he could run, the monk couldn't run the temple, and he lost the high-quality coal and iron of the Borg collar, Niu Dali couldn't turn out high-quality steel no matter how much TV he watched.

Let the flint grab the caravan leader's collar and throw it out, and then declare that he will forever refuse to trade with this caravan, the old cow estimates the time, it is time to start the second step of the plan, forming the Borg Leader militia brigade.
