Chapter 195: The Fortress Defense Line is Completed
There is no way to leave, Chi Nan has been bored in Giant Wood City, either planting or researching.
Although there is a forest in the east, Chi Nan does not dare to enter it. Let's not talk about how many Warcraft there are, whether you are an opponent or not. It's the beastmen who keep crossing the river during this time, and that's a nuisance.
During this period of time, Chi Nan saw that there were constantly wild orcs crossing the river to the east, using that method. When there are many of them, it's fine, but when they are small, they often fight with the beasts and creatures in the river.
Anyway, the beastmen on the other side have slowly entered the forest, and no matter what the situation is, they can't easily peep into it. At least now, I don't have the ability to do so.
In order to guard against those wild beastmen, Chi Nan actually planted ten living plant warships during this time. Of course, it's just a living shell with a layer of branches and leaves on top of it, which can provide very good protection for yourself. On the side, there are also some pneumatic cannons that were shrunk by Ikenan and used for water battles.
With these ships, they themselves have a certain combat effectiveness on the surface. The underside is thickened, causing the ordinary beasts and black iron monsters in the water to have no way to destroy their own ships for a short time.
In the event of a beast attack, the people on board the ship will drop some fragmented acid cannonballs, which do not harm the hull itself, but can cause great damage to aquatic creatures.
With these things, after several battles with aquatic creatures, it finally became the current situation of non-interference. Sometimes, boats would sail past and attack the beastmen who had migrated to cross the river.
With the increasing number of cannonballs and the arrival of soldiers, the entire Giant Wood City has now become like an iron bucket. Chi Nan is sure that all the fortresses are not as strong as their own fortresses, even if the Blackstone Fortresses they have seen before are definitely inferior to their own in terms of combat effectiveness, even if they have more soldiers.
But there is no way now, because the other fortresses have not been completed at all, so he has never been able to leave the front-line coalition forces, and can only continue to stay here.
Sometimes, Chi Nan can also receive requests for help from other fortress locations, and Chi Nan himself has formed a team dedicated to supporting other fortresses. More than a thousand pneumatic cannons pulled by packs and horses of nearly a thousand were running around at any time.
In order to be able to support faster, other fortresses also sent people to clear the roads between the fortresses and the fortresses, and many flat roads were created in this way. Near this section of the Giant Wood City, Chi Nan even took the time to make a large road out of his own chassis wood. It is very sturdy and flat, and there are roadside trees around it, which is very beautiful.
Marching in this area near Giant Wood City is at least twice as fast as in other places. This kind of road, the nobles of the other fortresses looked at it and called it red-eyed.
It's just that Chi Nan has been hiding in Giant Wood City and not coming out, and the battle ahead is becoming more and more tense, and as a result, no one else can contact Chi Nan, and it is not so convenient for everyone to communicate with each other.
"Hey, how long will it take to go back? I've been in this place for over four months now. ”
Calculating the time, it has indeed been four months since the construction of the Giant Wood City. In the first month, the outline of the giant wooden city was completed, and his team arrived, and in the second month, the interior was completely filled. For the next two months, I almost fell into boredom because I had already done everything I could.
Leave the rest to the civilians. In order to provide enough work for these civilians, Chinan has also built a number of plantations and breeding farms here, specializing in growing some fruits and vegetables, raising some animals, and increasing the variety of food.
It's so happy to be the leader of Red Sand Ridge. No one knows, these are the products of Chinan's boredom.
Chi Nan also understood that because other territories had their own hardwoods, it was still easy to build the city wall. The most complicated thing is the Mage Tower inside. That's right, it's the Mage Tower.
Feeling the strong combat power of these beastmen, the nobles have made a bloody investment this time. The nobles banded together to ask the empire to send some mages to provide the fortress with the strength to defend it.
The Empire also has its own requirements, that is, these mages are stationed here, so the mage tower must be built. The cost of this mage tower is not cheap, and even the worst mage tower costs hundreds of thousands of gold dragons.
A little better, the price is even more. But thinking of their own merits and their own territory, those nobles still gritted their teeth and agreed. These nobles are really rich, and they can take out so many golden dragons to build the Mage Tower without hesitation. There are a lot of construction materials in it, and even if you have money, there is no place to buy them.
This relationship and background are not comparable to themselves. And although his fortress is said to be the most powerful of all the fortresses, it is also the only one that does not have a mage tower, and Chi Nan believes that his strength is enough.
And whether others think that Chi Nan is a half-elf or that Chi Nan is a mage himself, no nobleman has mentioned this matter to him. Mages are arrogant, even if they are a mage and a lord, but those mages actually think that they are half-elves and do not think much of themselves.
Chi Nan, who knew about this, didn't care much, he was just some mages, and he didn't care.
It's just that at this time, the bald father suddenly ran in. has been managing a city for a long time, and the bald father is now holding his head high and his momentum is extraordinary, and he has the appearance of a city lord.
"My lord, this is a letter from the front, and the other fortresses have now been built. Count Longen would like to invite you to the celebration feast, and you can go back to Hongshaling after this time. ”
Knowing that Chi Nan has always wanted to go back, the bald father is also happy for Chi Nan. As for himself, although he has actually become the city lord of Jumu City, he has no intention of usurping power. This world is like this, everything in the territory belongs to the lord. Deep down, others don't have the idea of replacing it.
Besides, the bald father has already sworn allegiance to himself, and the oath is very prudent in this world.
Chi Nan jumped up: "What? Great, finally waiting for them to finish." It's been so slow, I still have a lot of things to do, it's because of them that I'm here and now I can finally get free. ”
Chi Nan laughed and quickly opened the letter in his hand.
