Chapter 19: On the right track
The next day, Lin Yi found Li Ru, Zhang Yan, Liao Hua, and several people to discuss, and decided to cremate the bodies of the ten fallen greedy wolf cavalrymen.
In view of the current environment, it is not suitable for burial, it is easy to be destroyed by wild beasts, cremation and ashes, and a hero's shrine can be built in the future if there are conditions.
Lin Yi led everyone to hold a mourning ceremony, and after finishing the work, the ashes of the ten greedy wolf cavalry were put in earthen jars, labeled and sealed.
With Li Ru, it's different, everything is arranged in an orderly manner, even Zhang Yan calculated that the new city wall would take two months, and it directly became half a month to Li Ru.
The increase in manpower is one thing, but there is one thing that everyone didn't expect, the green goblin's walled city itself has city walls, which are all stone, so ah, the details determine success or failure, obviously it is the matter in front of you, that is, no one can think of it.
Even the food problem was solved by Li Ru, and he was able to distinguish which yuan rice could be used as growing grain!
The vacant land cleared around the walled city was originally to prevent the enemy from hiding, and it was directly turned into fertile land by Li Ru!
However, in order to truly become fertile land, it is necessary to remove the roots and branches of large trees, which have many roots and branches and go deep into the ground, which will affect the growth of food.
If you change to an ordinary person, you really can't do this job, turn the land one meter deep, who can bear this job, but the greedy wolf cavalry is not an ordinary person, their physical fitness is five or six times more than that of ordinary people.
Lacking tools, Li Ru was stunned to find a blacksmith workshop in the walled city with a hammer, Lin Yi couldn't think of it, how could that place be iron-making, mainly because the only bit of iron ore in the blacksmith workshop was well hidden.
Li Ru found two Green Goblin soldiers who could strike iron, drew a drawing of a shovel and a hoe, and asked them to make all the iron ore into shovels and hoes according to the drawings.
This is the world is paper, invented by goblins, and this world seems to have an inertia, as long as it is invented by goblins, everything is cheap.
Due to the large number of newcomers, Lin Yi redeployed the team, and the five teams were fully established, with Zhang Yan leading three of the teams and Liao Hua leading two teams.
Sun Qing and Wang Dang temporarily served as captains and each led a team, and Du Yuan, Zhao Yi, and Ma Xiang each led fifty greedy wolf cavalry.
The remaining three greedy wolf cavalry chiefs and three greedy wolf cavalry captains temporarily acted as Li Ru's guards, although they didn't know what Li Ru's strength was, they must have been crispy and didn't run.
Lin Yi himself now has a certain combat ability, and he rarely has the opportunity to be alone, so he doesn't need to be guarded for the time being.
Everything is on the right track, Sun Qing, Wang Dang, Du Yuan, Zhao Yi, Ma Xiang, are responsible for leading the team to go out to collect stones, so that they can improve their own fighting spirit level by the way, their fighting spirit level is too low, they have purple talent, but their strength is about the same as that of the greedy wolf cavalry.
Liao Hua led two teams of greedy wolf cavalry to guard the walled city and the cultivation of fields outside the walled city, and at the same time had to monitor the situation of the kobold walled city from time to time.
The kobold clan has a new iron ore vein, and they should be busy mining, but they didn't come to trouble the Green Goblin, and naturally they don't know that the Green Goblin's territory has already changed.
Lin Yi and Li Ru followed Zhang Yan and the three teams of greedy wolf cavalry to explore the east by boat, and in the mouth of the lord of the Green Demon Clan, there was no orc territory within eight hundred miles south of the Barren River, and a hundred miles to the north could go out of the Eastern Wilderness Forest.
The Lord of the Green Demon Clan also roughly said the general situation of the orc lords along the river, and the target of Lin Yi's trip was the Black Mountain Lord, thirty miles away from the Great Forest of the Eastern Wilderness.
By the way, let's find out if there are no other forces along the Baili Barren River heading north, as the Green Goblin Lord said.
There is such a thing as intelligence, what others say can only be referred to, if the Lord of the Green Goblin Clan really knows everything, then he will not be given a hand by the Kobold Clan, and Lin Yi and the others will not be able to take the Green Goblin Clan.
The five boats were all single-sail oars about five meters long and two meters wide, one boat could carry fifty people on board, and one boat was equipped with six Green Goblin soldiers, and the fleet set off on the road.
The flow of the barren river is very gentle, all the way are towering trees, and there will be no strong winds and waves, this barren river tributary is like a dividing line, the barren river is deep in the East Wilderness Forest, and the outside is the periphery of the East Wilderness Forest.
The speed of the ship was about an hour and 20 miles, and after five hours of sailing, there was indeed no trace of other forces along the way, and when the tributaries of the barren river merged into a larger river, the river suddenly became rapid, and the river into which the tributaries of the barren river flowed into was still only a tributary, and the width of the river had reached more than three thousand meters.
Although Lin Yi was born in the Huaishui area, he really hasn't seen any big boats, there are no big rivers around where he lives, and the biggest boat he has ever seen is the kind of small board boat one or two meters long in the reservoir.
The previous five-meter-long single-sail oarboat belonged to a big ship in Lin Yi's eyes, but when the fleet sailed out of the Great Forest of the Eastern Wilderness, before he had gone far, he saw seven or eight ten-meter-long double-sail oarboats parked at a coastal pier, and Lin Yi immediately felt that his five single-sail oarboats were not very fragrant.
He could feel that the five-meter-long single galleys were not so stable when they reached this water, although they didn't understand the boat, but he also understood that the boat was small, the draft was shallow, and the single galleys couldn't play in this water!
"It should be the pig-headed territory Tianhe Territory that the Green Goblin Lord said." Lin Yi pointed to the dock where the seven or eight double sailboats were parked and asked Zhang Yan.
"Driving out of the Eastern Wilderness Great Forest, the first territory is Tianhe Territory, that's right." Zhang Yan nodded in confirmation.
"This territory is a big threat to us, what is the strength of this place?" Li Ru looked at the double galleys in the distance and asked Lin Yi.
"One earth knight, three great knights, thirty knights and warriors, and more than five hundred soldiers." Lin Yi told Li Ru the news he had received from the Lord of the Green Demon Clan.
"Next time, we will concentrate all our forces to take this place." Li Ru also has a certain understanding of the high-end combat power of this world.
"We have a limited number of ships, I'm afraid we can't carry that many people, and we have a limited number of sailors." Lin Yi said with some difficulty, the only sailors in his hands at present are still those Green Goblin soldiers.
As for the greedy wolf cavalry, they are not seasick Lin Yi is thankful.
"My lord, maybe we can grab their two ships when we return home." Lin Yi and the others did not stop the boat, as they moved forward, the Tianhe Leader had gradually moved away, Zhang Yan estimated the support speed of the Tianhe Leader's reinforcements, and proposed.
"Is it reliable? That would have to be captured with the crew, otherwise you wouldn't be able to row away from the boat. Lin Yi said with some concern.
Liao Hua is not here, relying on Zhang Yan alone, he does not have the ability to go head-to-head with the Earth Knight Rank, in case he is entangled by the other Earth Knight, it will not be easy to do.
"If the other earth's knight comes to help, can Wen Xiansheng hold off for a while." Zhang Yan didn't answer Lin Yi, but asked Li Ru.
"Maybe you can give it a try." Li Ru nodded.
Lin Yi saw that Li Ru agreed, so he didn't say much, the mage's ability is unpredictable, Lin Yi also wants to see what Li Ru's strength is, Li Ru is not only a strategist, but also a mage.
