Chapter 276: The Stronghold Is Besieged

[Built successfully!] 】

……

When the first watchtower was built, the gray fog outside the territory, which symbolized the blind spot, was suddenly lit up on the system map.

The area of influence of the War Sandbox has been updated simultaneously.

in this area.

All allied units have a friendly green dot.

And Cheng Shen's instructions can also be transmitted in real time through the war sand table, he asked the construction team to continue to expand to the west, and after building three guard towers in a zigzag shape, the team came to the first front-line stronghold to choose a place.

Temple ruins.

Cheng Shen is ready to invest resources to build this place into a second line of defense.

The temple can recruit petrified ancestors, just enough to replenish the source of combat troops.

Although the current temple building is only one level, the maximum number of recruits cannot exceed thirty.

Theoretically, however, as soon as the location of the pit is vacant, the transformation ritual can be carried out immediately.

When the resources are sufficient, the complete energy source continues to recruit the petrochemical ancestors to join the battle.

Cheng Shen's warehouse still has a large number of materials brought back from the faction war last time.

Not to mention that you can always recruit boss-level petrochemical ancestor units.

But the elite-level petrified ancestors can recruit at least a thousand!

If it weren't for the number of sacrificial pits, this force alone would have been able to push Storm Castle all the way through from the front!

While expanding the territory.

Cheng Shen also selected a hundred units with high basic attributes and certain combat ability among the residents of the territory and began firearms training.

At present, there are more than 60 spears and short guns in the territory.

Use it in turns.

As long as you can train the proficiency level of long-range weapons to level 3 or above, you will basically be able to use firearms proficiently.

It's a pity that the batch of ordnance and equipment he retrieved from the treasure house of the Sacrificial Temple has not yet been purified.

Not available.

The weapons that were far more powerful than the latest technology in his realm could only be stored.

Somewhat wasteful.

"Huh?"

Cheng Shen couldn't help but think.

Of course, the normal inhabitants of his realm would not be able to use the equipment that was still tainted.

But doesn't he just have a good group of recruiters to use?

Most of the more than 900 people of the goblin clan are still in the treatment period, waiting for the natural metabolism to clean up the residual poison deposited in the body.

Until then, they have little access to their normal work.

Rather than raising it for nothing.

Let them contribute to this fight.

And the most important thing is that most goblins have a talent for mechanical mastery, and even if they have never touched firearms, they only need a short time to get started, which is much better than ordinary residents.

"I need your help."

When Cheng Shen saw Weiman again, he even made a request.

After listening to his explanation, Wiman hesitated for less than five seconds, as a clan leader who knew how to examine the situation, he knew when to bargain with Cheng Shen, and when to contribute.

Let alone.

Part of the reason for the crisis that Cheng Shen is facing at the moment is also because of them. If he can't resist the retaliation from the other party, then the fate that awaits their tribe will still be a tragic cycle.

"I have two hundred fighters on my side who are proficient in combat!"

Wiman said.

Cheng Shen nodded with satisfaction at his attitude, and said, "You don't need so many people, and you don't need to personally come forward to fight the enemy, although there will be dangers, I will definitely try my best to protect your safety." ”

But it was sincere.

Now every goblin is Cheng Shen's private wealth, even if it is for his own interests, he will not drive them like cannon fodder.

Cheng Shen then took out the weapons stored in the market.

Filter it.

In the end, 130 standard firearms were selected that could still be used.

Most of them only need a simple tinkering to exert their original power.

And that's exactly what goblins are good at.

In addition, Cheng Shen also selected some of the available armor and some inventory of his territory, and put together a complete set of armor for each goblin.

They don't have to be in direct contact with the enemy, though.

But just in case.

There is no shortage of equipment, there is no need to be stingy at such a critical moment.

"You can also recruit a group of survivors as thugs......"

Cheng Shen pondered.

The current level of development of the survivors is uneven, and it may be difficult for them to cobble together a combat-ready army.

However, if you use equipment or more precious potential potions as a guide, you can recruit a group of cannon fodder teams.

It's still very easy.

Their ability to fight head-on is irrelevant.

The corpse after being killed can play a stronger role in Cheng Shen's hands......

But he pondered the necessity of the expenditure.

Still shook his head.

If it weren't for the fact that Storm Castle's army was strong enough to threaten the safety of his territory, it didn't make much sense to recruit too many cannon fodder units.

Cannon fodder is cannon fodder.

It is difficult to cause a qualitative change in a war.

On the contrary, he had to worry that the group of survivors who were not afraid of heaven and earth came to his side and caused trouble.

It only adds to the troubles.

He might as well get some more magic items and scrolls when he has the time.

……

Time flies by.

The construction of the front line has been going on non-stop.

The forward position, which has been successfully built to the ruins of the temple, has seen several enemy situations during this period, but they are all small forces sent by Storm Castle to test them, and they are easily annihilated by the team led by Arjeka.

There is no danger.

It was getting dark that the progress of the construction team had to be put on hold.

Because of his previous personal experience and the strange change of day and night in this area, Cheng Shen has always been full of fear of the night in this forest.

Even the most urgent matter will be postponed to tomorrow.

At this time.

The goblin clan was the first to hear good news.

Their adaptability is amazing, the frontline stronghold of the temple ruins has just been built, and the more than 100 goblin warriors arranged by Weiman are already able to skillfully use those firearms.

Bang bang bang!

……

A dense popping sound sounded in the empty school grounds.

Smoke fills the air.

The strong smell of burning gunpowder hung over the field like a cumulus cloud, turning the complexion of a goblin yellow.

"My lord, how are we doing?"

Viman excitedly asked him for credit.

"Good."

Cheng Shen knew that verbal praise alone could not satisfy this cunning old fox, and then said: "In the days of wartime, I will ensure that you will have meat to eat at every meal, and you will be able to fill your stomach. ”

This is a more effective incentive than simply promising to increase their salaries.

Surviving in that underworld, the goblins could not imagine what it would be like to simmer bread, vegetables, and meat with all kinds of spices.

Let's just say the most intuitive data.

In the past two days, Cheng Shen just relied on providing them with food, which made the overall popular attribute of this group of goblins rise to 81 points!

To know.

Cheng Shen's own territory, but through a variety of welfare policies, in order to stabilize the people's sentiment at about 90 points.

I have to say.

There is a big difference between sending carbon in the snow and icing on the cake.

Wiemann stirred up in anger, and he immediately shouted to the crowd: "Little ones! Hear no! Your Lord promises us to have meat to eat every day, and we will eat as long as we can! Give me all the best to win this battle! ”

"Yes!"

The emaciated goblins all had green eyes in their eyes, and they suddenly practiced even harder.

Wei Man looked at the goblins' reactions with satisfaction, and then said to Cheng Shen: "Lord Lord, I looked through the diary of my ancestors before and found an efficient gunpowder formula that can increase the power of firearms more effectively!" ”

The payoff in exchange is so fast.

Cheng Shen couldn't help but glance at Weiman, he had reason to suspect that this guy had probably already figured out the current level of scientific and technological development in his territory, and had prepared a bunch of updatable technologies, waiting to negotiate with him.

Otherwise, how could he suddenly "justly" discover the gunpowder technology he needed the most.

But.

Cheng Shen was not disgusted by Wiman's careful thinking.

What he wanted in exchange for nothing more than to help the goblin people fight for more benefits.

And this is what Cheng Shen wants to give them.

In fact.

This commitment he had already made to Wiemann.

But with his character, he will definitely not easily listen to his own words. Cheng Shen didn't directly forcibly take the ancestral diary, and he just wanted him to contribute the content of the diary little by little in this way.

As the saying goes, only what you work hard to get is the best, and you can learn to cherish it the most.

And this step-by-step communication method can also gradually deepen their sense of belonging.

Although Cheng Shen himself hates maintaining all kinds of interpersonal and social relationships.

But since you can use a little means, you can get unexpected returns.

He doesn't mind putting a little more thought into it......

Cheng Shen's face suddenly calmed down, "We'll talk about this matter later." ”

The system prompt vibrates constantly.

He opened the map.

Suddenly, around the temple stronghold at the front of the territory, a large number of red dots suddenly appeared out of thin air, compared to the soldiers and members of the construction team resting in the stronghold, they were as weak as fireflies.

"The front-line stronghold is surrounded!"

Cheng Shen's heart tightened.

Although that team was led by Al Jieka, there were too many enemies at the moment.

That's several times more than the troops that attacked his territory head-on before!

Cheng Shen didn't doubt that Arjieka would be able to kill her, but the thirty soldiers and more than a hundred craftsmen who followed her were probably going to be wiped out!

Cheng Shen's face was gloomy, and he looked at Wei Man, "I need your people now." ”

When Wiman saw his face, he immediately realized something.

Immediately shouted: "Assemble!" ”

……

"Whew!"

"Roar!"

"Tsuki!"

There was a terrible roar in the dim forest, and there was a lot of light and shadow.

Inside the ruins of the temple.

The hearts of the soldiers and craftsmen were already in their throats.

"My lord, should we break out, it may be too late before these beasts completely surround this place!"

A soldier asked, clenching his weapon.

He looked at Da Meng, who then looked at Arjieka, who had a calm face on the side.

In this team, his command has been temporarily replaced by Arjieka.

"No, we just need to hold on here, and reinforcements will be there soon."

Arjeka said calmly.

Performing as a team leader can subtly affect everyone, and in this regard, Arjeka is undoubtedly quite good.

Of course, if Cheng Shen was here, he would understand that it was not Al Jieka who deliberately behaved calmly.

But in front of her, who had experienced such a catastrophe as the destruction of the world.

Any changes.

None of them were enough to cause her intense emotional changes.

Hearing her words, the soldiers couldn't help but think of the man who was like a demon god, and their hearts suddenly settled down a lot.

"You command the battle."

She lightly handed back the wartime command to the great fierce, who was good at it, and then walked towards the huts in the middle of the temple.

Before leaving, Cheng Shen considered that they might encounter a siege.

He had told her how to recruit the Petrochemical Ancestors, and had brought her plenty of materials.

And this is also the fundamental reason why Cheng Shen chose to build the first front-line stronghold on the temple site.

There's nothing more convenient than fighting a recruiting point.

"Listen to me!"

Da Meng immediately took over the command with a serious face.

He shouted at the group of craftsmen who were still trembling: "If you don't want to die, hurry up and build fortifications, who dares to run away and twist your head off!" ”

With that, he directly called out a group of soldiers to form the Warlord, just like he had done in Faction Warfare.

This process has been operated quite skillfully.

"The rest of the people guard the entrance, that's the only weak point that the monster can break through! But don't force it, we can still return to the temple. But we can't be beaten by a bunch of brutes like kings! ”

He shouted.

"Yes!"

The soldiers immediately responded.

But they were met with a roar like a mountain roaring out of a tsunami.

Crackling!

Large sparkling blue and purple dots of light rushed out of the forest, and they were hundreds of thunder beasts!

They are charged with electricity, and they stand out in the dim woodland, emitting an electric light that seems to form an impenetrable wind.

Directly follow the base cover!

Bang!!

The dense clouds in the sky quickly converged, making the already dim light even more visible, and the bonfire lit in the stronghold swayed violently in the howling wind, tugging at everyone's heartstrings.

But at this time.

But none of the iron-blooded soldiers showed fear.

This group of iron-blooded soldiers has personally followed Cheng Shen through the temple extermination war, and has carried out several chaos invasions, and even fought tough battles such as camp warfare.

It's been a battle-hardened for a long time.

How could you be frightened by the slightest sound of wind and thunder?

"Fight!"

With a loud shout, he rushed out directly, the shield in his left hand lit up with crystal light, and his right hand threw out a dark blue chain, which was directly tied to the dozen or so thunder beasts that rushed towards him, and he grinned.

Sting!

A fiery red scroll was directly torn apart and thrown out by him.

"You brutes, do you think that the lord didn't prevent you from sneaking up!?"

Fire tornado!

Call!!

The rising flames rose from the ground in an instant under the wind, forming a pillar of fire that reached the sky, instantly rolling up more than a dozen thunder beasts in front of them!

Click!

A thick bolt of lightning slammed into the sky above the temple.

But it was stopped by an invisible barrier, and layers of ripples rippled on the barrier, but fortunately, the thunder and lightning were finally blocked.

A phantasmagoric wall has been built outside the temple.

However, the Phantom Wall has the advantage of being primarily aimed at ranged units, as it can affect target locks by interfering with their line of sight.

The lightning wizard who can hide in the forest unleashes locking magic.

The properties of the Phantom Wall vanished in front of him.

The only thing that can be retained is the high durability and defensive attributes of the Elite building itself.
