Maybe it was Jialan's slaughter of the small group of Koutao fishmen that alarmed the nearby Koutao fishmen tribe, or maybe it was their intended purpose to attack Koran City.

In short, a large number of Kou Tao fishmen lurking in the sea near the dock of Port Corran, like a group of fiddler crabs at low tide, poured out of the sea and launched a frantic attack on the buildings on land.

Fortunately, the current defense force of Kolan City, after the turmoil, has cleared the chaotic factions in Kolan City, integrated the armed organizations, and all of them are under the unified command of the Kolan Defense Regiment, both in terms of organization and obedience rate, and in terms of combat effectiveness alone, it is not inferior to the regular city defense army of some large city-states. "Novel" novel chapters are updated the fastest

Due to Korambang's proximity to the sea, more than two-thirds of the border is coastal, making it extremely difficult to defend against attacks from the sea.

But fortunately, the scientific defense regiment is newly equipped with a large number of "Nightingale-type" miniature reconnaissance floating boats, and these floating objects cruising the sky are enough to detect their movements as soon as they launch an attack, and coordinate the ground forces to intercept the Kou Tao fish-man troops that have come ashore.

In addition, although the strength of the Kou Tao Fishmen has generally reached the bronze level, the premise is that it is in the sea.

Once ashore, even if the Kou Tao Fishman has a certain amphibious nature and can still carry out activities on land, because it cannot be out of the water for a long time, both flexibility and combat effectiveness will fall to the level of black iron.

In this way, even if the number of Kou Tao Fishmen is surprisingly large, they are under the sniper of the Science Defense Regiment. The two sides turned out to be evenly matched, and once again fell into a stalemate.

The only good news is that although the sea area has been blocked by the Kou Tao Fishman. Maritime transportation was completely cut off, and some businessmen suffered serious losses, but because of the gradual expansion of the scale of the "Kelan Flash Gold Float Boat Factory" under the command of the Keao Group, the number of new fire gas floats that were not limited by the output of the "light gas wells" of the dwarf tribe also increased.

These artificial flying machines, floating in the air, ensure that the material needs of the city of Coran will not be limited by land and sea blockades. I don't have to worry about being trapped by the Inhuman Alliance's full-front blockade strategy.

And the war with the Kou Tao Fishman is not completely without benefits, that is, the corpse of the Kou Tao Fishman!

Because fish-people living in the ocean are difficult to catch (don't expect to catch them with nets or earthworms). They can only wait for them to come ashore and plunder on their own.

Therefore, this kind of fat quenched with fish people, the illumination is extremely bright when burning, not only does not have oil smoke but will emit a faint fragrance of transparent oil, which has always been the first choice for night lighting for the powerful and rich. It's even more popular than some magic lamps.

But now. The fish-men who were usually difficult to catch, but now thousands of them rushed to the shore, and the city of Koran, which consumed a huge amount during the war, made no sense to let go of the corpses of the fish-men who fell on the land, and every time after a fierce local war, they would always drag back all of them, which was the advantage of being a defender.

The weight of a Kotao fishman is about 25 to 30 kilograms. However, it can quench about 20 kilograms of fish-man oil, which is worth 10 quintalans for 500 milliliters. The "worth" of a Kou Tao fishman is about 400 Quintalans!

Since the outbreak of the "Fishman Landing War", the Science and Technology Defense Regiment has been able to drag back more than 100,000 Koutao fishman corpses from the coastline every day and send them to the urgently built "oil refinery", bringing more than 40 million gold talan to Coran City every day!

The civilians of Kolan City, who were more or less uneasy because of the invasion of the Koutao fishmen, were hired by the refinery and paid a good salary, but they happily hoped that this "war" would continue for a long time, and it would be better that it would never end.

Of course, this "thirsty for war" is based on the premise that the scientific defense regiment can resist the attack of the Kou Tao fishmen and will not suffer too many casualties.

As the defender, except for the dock of Kelan Port, which is an important position that must be defended, and the battle is extremely fierce, in other areas, the mercenaries of the science defense regiment can completely put Kou Tao fish people ashore to fight, so that the battle loss ratio between Kou Tao fish and the mercenaries of the science defense group is as high as dozens to one, or even hundreds to one!

This is entirely because Jialan and his entourage were aware of the existence of Kou Tao Fishman in advance, and the scientific defense regiment carried out emergency fortification construction in the pass areas such as the wharf of Kelan Port.

A large number of servants and a large number of dirt bags that had been hoarded for a long time piled up a temporary city wall on the coastline in a very short period of time, and because of the participation of the University of Science and Magic, the city of Koran, which has obtained a large amount of magical resources, has not only received technical support economically, but also received a huge boost militarily.

Although magicians do not necessarily need to go to the front line to fight, the field of alchemy and enchantment has provided a large number of magical equipment and magic weapons for the mercenaries of the scientific defense group, which has doubled the combat effectiveness of the mercenaries.

The soldiers of the science defense regiment did not even need to take the initiative to attack, they only needed to rely on defensive facilities to hold their positions to the death, and in terms of killing, all of them were handed over to the floating boats cruising in the sky.

A bag of thunder stones was sprinkled down and a piece was blown to death, a tube of strong acid fell down and burned a piece, a jar of poison powder was sprinkled and poisoned to death, holding a fishbone spear and a shell shield, almost naked/naked, and only relying on his own scales to defend Kou Tao Fishman, completely helpless against the floating boat in the sky!

This kind of unequal armament battle, although the consumption of funds and materials is huge, but there are a large number of fish-man corpses in return, 40 million gold taran per day, enough to keep the war for a long time.

The tenacity of Kolan City obviously exceeded the expectations of the Kou Tao Fishmen, or the "Southern Continent Inhuman Alliance", but the location of Colan Bang happened to be the key location of the "South African Alliance" to connect the eastern and western battlefields!

The city of Coran is like a huge "roadblock", blocking the coalition forces of the "South African Union" to the left and right of the Sea Wall Mountains, and forcibly dividing it into two battlefields, east and west.

Shocked by the combat power of Colan City, it was not only the "South African Alliance", but also the entire states of the continents in the Southern Continent, who were also attacked by the South African Alliance, although they had not lost their territory for the time being, but the losses were quite heavy!

The lords of the states and the members of the councils of the city-states had to send a plea to the city of Koran!

“...... The city-states of Tolan, Zoran, Surebal, Osquilo, as well as Lugwen, Quesk, and other city-states have all placed a large number of orders for ordnance to us!"

President Clark Abigail and President Lauren Clifford, who are currently in charge of the administration of Corland City, excitedly informed Jialan of the "good news", and President Clark said excitedly: "The mercenary guild branches in various places have also asked us for help, hoping that our science defense group can send a float boat to help in the war!"

"Although it is a good thing to have a huge ordnance order, but our own needs are also very large, although we can be self-sufficient at present, but we can't help but be prepared for any accidents, and it is also necessary to hoard some ordnance, right?"

Jialan was embarrassed and said: "Besides, even if the scale of the 'Keao War Factory' is immediately expanded, it is not possible to raise productivity in a short period of time. ”

His opinion made the two of them calm down suddenly, and President Clark frowned and said, "Isn't there a way to expand the scale of production as soon as possible?"

"Unless we can recruit a large number of magicians from elsewhere!"

Jialan shook her head and said: "Relying only on the magic resources of Kemo University, it is not possible to expand the scale anymore, even if there is no shortage of manpower, but some key technical aspects are not something that ordinary people can complete." ”

The two looked at each other and said in unison: "Go to the 'City of a Thousand Towers' New Sarn to recruit people!?"

New Sahn, the "City of a Thousand Towers" in the area of "Right Sword Bay, South Brulanshire", is a famous alchemy mecca, where the headquarters of the Alchemy Guild was built, and a large number of magic craftsmen in various fields are gathered.

As early as the beginning of the cooperation, they considered going to New Sarn to dig up a group of magic craftsmen to come back, but unfortunately, after the outbreak of this war that swept the entire southern continent, this plan to dig the foot of the wall came to an end.

Governor Clifford said worriedly: "But South Brulan County is the only county that has not asked us for help, they have resisted the demons from the Zhuom Wasteland in the Southwest Continent with their own strength, and there is also a great demand for magic craftsmen, I'm afraid it will be difficult to dig up a sufficient number of magic craftsmen from them at this time, right?"

Hearing the name of the "City of a Thousand Towers" New Sarn, Jia Lan blinked, in his original era, the "Mograve Academy" in the "City of Thousands of Towers" Sarn was also a powerful arcane institution!

"Anyway, give it a try!"

Jialan smiled, "I decided to take a trip to Sarn...... Uh, well, it's the 'new' Sarn! Let's see if we can recruit a bunch of qualified magicians. ”

"You're going in person?"

President Clark was stunned and said, "What about the Castle of Doom?"

"At present, everything is slowly on track, and with the magicians of Kemo University taking care of it, there will be nothing in the short term. The only thing I'm worried about is the remnants of those Golden Power Societies lurking in the city, and if I don't destroy them, it will always be a huge hidden danger!"

Jialan said thoughtfully: "And behind this matter, there seems to be some unknown conspiracy! Otherwise, how could the entire Nanlu be in chaos at the same time by such a coincidence?" (To be continued......)
