readx;
Xiao Ya, you have done a good job in the academy in the past few months, and the devil is far away, why are you in a hurry to leave?"
On the way to the fortress of Sit, Liuyun looked at Alexander beside him and asked curiously. Pen @ fun @ pavilion wWw. ļ½ļ½ļ½Uļ½Eć ļ½ļ½ļ½ļ½
Alexander stroked his hair exaggeratedly: "Boss, do you think I'm much younger now?"
Recalling Alexander's disgraced pile of papers in the academy office, Liuyun nodded.
"Facts have proved that the work of teaching and educating people is not as easy to do as I imagined, if I really wait until the peach and plum are all over the world, my grave is estimated to grow grass, and I am still suitable for life in the army. Alexander said with emotion.
"This time, I rescued you from the sea of suffering, how are you going to thank me?" After the visit to the academy was finished on a hot day, Liuyun considered the combat needs of Black Hawk and asked him to temporarily take over the work of the academy and relieve Alexander, the chief of staff. Yan Tian was quite satisfied with the situation of the academy, so he readily agreed to Liuyun's request. And the Rand Sword Saint, at the invitation of Yan Tian, became a guest faculty member of the academy.
"I remember, you pushed me into this fire pit in the first place, right?" Alexander said with a smile, "Moreover, you so readily agree to my request to leave the academy, and you are reluctant to retire there like me, right?"
When Liuyun heard this, he said disdainfully: "I asked you to leave the academy because I was afraid that those students would be expelled by you as a madman sooner or later."
"I'm just faithful to your school-running policy -- I'd rather be in need than in abundance. Alexander shrugged, "But it can make the name of the academy so famous in a short period of time." Indeed, there was a son-in-law that I expected. ā
"I won't mention the matter of the academy, my dad is here, I believe there is no problem. Now that my chief of staff is in his position, he should help me think about how to fight the battle in front of me. We can't afford to lose this battle for the entire legion, and we can't afford to lose for the entire Fire Cloud Empire. The Blood God Cult is no ordinary army, and it seems that their ultimate goal is to wipe out the continental race. I sometimes wonder about the founder of this teaching. Is it water in the brain?" sighed Liuyun.
"Boss, it's not as simple as it seems. Alexander disagrees with Liuyun's view, "It seems to me that they are simply using absolute terror to create a situation that is extremely favorable to them." In order to destroy the will and confidence of the countries of the continent to resist. Any power must be based on the broadest possible population, and bloody killings are only a last resort at this stage. And what they really seek is absolute power to destroy the existing regime. Establish a great power that belongs to them. ā
Listening to Alexander's words, Liuyun couldn't help but fall into deep thought.
Alexander continued: "A thousand years ago, their actions caused panic on the continent, which eventually led to the union of the entire continent's races. A desperate battle was fought with them, and both sides ended in a bleak end. Obviously, a thousand years later. They didn't take the ninja training. Therefore, it cannot be ruled out that they will adopt all-out means when the offensive situation is unfavorable. Just like it was a thousand years ago. ā
"After a thousand years of reincarnation, the strength of the Blood God Sect has been restored. It's a pity that the various races on the mainland are not ready. Many of the legacies left by civilizations from millennia ago can be used as powerful weapons against them, but unfortunately we don't have time to digest them slowly. I built this fortress to prepare for the worst-case scenario, leaving a last stronghold. "I have succeeded in drawing the flames of war to the Assman Empire, and at the same time taking a defensive position in Roman, in order to exchange space for time. ā
"Boss, you're wrong, a thousand years ago, in the face of the Blood God Sect, there was no Black Eagle Legion on the continent, no you, and no me, Alexander."
When you are young, there will always be endless courage. Alexander's words revealed a strong self-confidence, which made even Liuyun feel his blood boiling.
"There is no such fortress that will never fall" Liuyun suddenly stepped off the handsome horse, pointed to the tall buildings in the distance with one hand, and shouted loudly.
"Damn, I didn't know that I had so many excellent craftsmen under my hands" Mo Ge looked at the hot construction site, his face was full of joy, "According to the current progress, this fortress will be completed in half a month"
"My Tianfeng Town and Charlie's Novi Town, all kinds of neat construction have been completed. Once the Sit side is completed, the Three Towns will be able to form an arc of defensive lines, protecting the entire southwest of the Roman province. However, I am now very worried about whether the empty space connecting the three towns will be able to withstand the onslaught of the enemy if we only dig some trenches and set up some traps
Now that the leader has handed over the fortress of Sit to us, we must build a strong defense line that can be overcome. Hanno raised his concerns about the near-completion of the fortress.
"General Hanno, the question you are talking about is also a problem that has been bothering me these days. One of my officers had a good suggestion, but unfortunately the amount of work was too large, and I was afraid that it would not be completed in the short term. Mogo sighed, "In the leader's conception, the two towns of Tianfeng and Novi are the two bodyguards of the fortress of Sith. The existence of these two towns can ensure that the fortress of Seit will not become an isolated fortress in the war, and the role cannot be underestimated. But it will not be easy to integrate the three towns into a single defense system in the short term. ā
"What advice did your officer give you, let's all listen to it. No matter how difficult it is, with the help of our three divisions and the support of these people, it should be no problem, you know, this time the project can progress so quickly is the credit of these people," Charlie said with deep feeling as he looked at the people who were busy transporting materials on the construction site.
"The advice he gave me was to dig holes like voles and rely on burrows in the ground to connect the three towns. How manpower does it take to do this?" Mogo Dao.
"Three towns and dozens of miles, less than half a year, I'm afraid it won't be finished. Hanno smiled bitterly.
"I think it's a good suggestion, and when the boss arrives, I can listen to his opinion. In order to protect the people of the Roman province, I think we must use all possible means. Charlie said.
In his military career, he had never experienced the feeling of being loved by the people as he is today. The army, in the eyes of the people, has always been just a symbol of imperial power and a tool in the hands of the nobility, but it was the appearance of Liuyun and the Black Eagle that changed their perceptions. In the battle of Sidon City, the image of Liuyun willing to sacrifice for the people was deeply imprinted in the hearts of every Huoyun civilian, which not only won him the reputation of the god of war, but also gave Black Eagle the most extensive support from the people. Charlie often even thinks that when an army has such a strong support behind it, it is enough for it to dare to face any enemy and win any war.
The fortress of Sit, centered on the town of Sit, has four walls up to fifteen meters high. After the completion of the main project, the war materials transported from all over the Roman Empire continued to pour in, and a large number of craftsmen and soldiers also arrived. According to Liuyun's requirements, the fortress must be able to ensure the clothing, food, shelter and transportation of 100,000 soldiers and civilians for half a year, so various preparations in the early stage are being carried out intensively. In the town, barracks, arsenals, and material warehouses were quickly built. In order to prevent the enemy from throwing poison into the water, General Mogo sent people to deepen and enlarge the wells of several dogs, and at the same time diverted a strip of apricots that used to flow through the town outside the town. , the once obscure town became the fastest wheel on the chariot of the entire empire overnight.
As for the progress of the Sit Fortress, Liuyun is very satisfied. However, as soon as he and Alexander arrived in the town of Sit, new requirements were put forward for the construction of the fortress.
"Look, here's a map of the fort's defenses. Two kilometers before the fortress, these triangles are the first line of fortifications, dominated by all kinds of traps. From 1,500 meters to 1,200 meters, in this 300-meter area, a new type of defensive weapon will be arranged, and from 1,000 meters to 1,200 meters, the circular signs on this strip are a group of guard towers, and the protagonists are used for reconnaissance and warning. The range of 300 meters to 1,000 meters is the area of magic strikes, and all attacks are completed by the mage troops. Within 300 meters, it is the attack area of the archers. ā
Liuyun pointed to the drawings on the table and introduced them to Alexander and the three division commanders.
According to this arrangement, General Mogo will build a number of watchtowers in the later period, and some bunkers on the city walls will be set up to facilitate the attack of magicians and archers. The towns of Tianfeng and Novi, where Hanno and Charlie are located, also have to complete the later works according to this requirement. ā
"Let me remind you," Alexander duly continued, "we are building a fortress not to defend it, but to rely on its impregnability so that we can attack the enemy without worry. The leader has made a request for everyone, and I will add by the way: use the wisdom of your subordinates to let everyone use their brains and do everything possible to think of all the means that the enemy may use, so that this fortress is impregnable."
"There's a suggestion right now, Chief. "One of my officers suggested digging a hole in the empty space between the three towns to facilitate the movement of the troops. "Authentically?" When Liuyun heard this, his eyes couldn't help but light up.
