Chapter 56: Step by step

"The general should have been shrouded in horse leather, how could he linger on the sickbed and die surrounded by his sons and daughters?"

With the arrival of the 300,000 Great Qi Expeditionary Army's southern route army, the situation began to change, and the coalition forces turned from defense to offense, continuing to advance towards the depths of the Five Gods World.

Within hundreds of miles of the entrance to the Five Gods World, because of the explosion, or the fusion and devouring of the two worlds, the relationship between the unstable space became dead.

I dare not say that it is a barren land, but it is also full of gravel next door, and it is rare to see grass.

However, once you leave this circle and go deep into the interior of the world of the five gods, you can see that everywhere is full of greenery and forests.

At this point, the offensive of the great army was again blocked.

Because of the dense forests everywhere, those natives who are familiar with the geographical advantages often take advantage of the geographical advantages to constantly carry out small sneak attacks on the coalition forces, but do not have a real decisive battle with the coalition forces.

But it also made the coalition not say that it was overwhelmed, but it was also a headache.

Fortunately, the old general Feng Guangning became famous in the southwest, which is mountainous and forested. He is an expert at this kind of jungle warfare.

It can even be said that the first person in the jungle war of Daqi is this old general.

Therefore, Feng Guangning quickly came up with a countermeasure.

A small group of elites was dispatched, and the mages also haunted the mountains and forests to strangle the enemy.

However, the army is advancing step by step, steadily and steadily.

In this way, the enemy could not bear it, and continued to retreat, and several city-states were already destroyed by the army, capturing tens of thousands of natives.

And Wang Shouwei could only follow his own troops and became the guard of these captives.

This made the veteran oilman grunt again, and his mouth couldn't stop babbling.

But at this time, the identity of this veteran oil is no longer the same, he has also become a public servant.

Just the last time he was attacked by Batrider, this guy killed a Batrider with his bare hands, boosting morale.

In addition, when Wang Shouwei was hospitalized later, this guy made meritorious service again, so this product accumulated merit and became the lowest level of the meritorious officer of the Great Qi Army!

Now it is equal to Wang Shouwei!

However, last time Wang Shouwei was injured to save him, and now he has become a mage apprentice and his old superior, so the veteran soldier Youzi still admires Wang Shouwei.

Of course, as before, even if he becomes a public servant, this guy's problem of complaining has not changed at all.

He complained in front of Wang Shouwei about those superior officers, leaving them here to guard the prisoners, and not giving them the opportunity to continue their meritorious service.

Now this guy is no longer satisfied with having a knighthood, and he still wants a higher title, such as not more?

In ancient times, the title of not changing could be exempted from the battle of changing the pawn, but other battles still had to be served.

In Daqi, if you get the title of no change, you can apply for retirement, return to your hometown, and never have to serve in the military again.

It is equivalent to an immunity, which in the present situation is more formal than meaningful.

But it's a rare honor!

Now the veteran oil is eyeing this title, but this is already a fourth-class lord, and it is really not so easy to get it.

Wang Shouwei ignored him, lying on the grass boredly, holding the grass roots, seemingly listening to the old soldier Youzi, in fact, as soon as he saw his dull eyes, he knew that he was absent-minded now, and he was out of the way.

Not far away, groups of prisoners were being guarded by these soldiers, carrying supplies, cutting down trees, building railroads, and forts.

Feng Guangning's use of troops was quite steady, advancing step by step.

But it is a step forward, and the railway will follow the construction step by step, ensuring the smooth flow of its own back roads and materials at any time.

And in order to protect the railway, not only a large number of soldiers were deployed along the way, but most importantly, the fortresses being built along the way.

There is a large fortress almost a mile away, and a small fortress three hundred meters away.

Of course, the speed of such a propulsion is not fast, and the material consumed is of course huge, but it is enough to ensure that nothing goes wrong.

It can be said that this is completely relying on strong national strength to pacify the enemy.

If it was before Yin Shengzhi ascended the throne, Daqi would not have this kind of national strength to do this kind of thing.

But now, it's nothing!

At least manually, a little food would have been enough for the captives to send them away.

And most of these captives of this world are also honest and docile, and very obedient.

In addition to working, I always like to be lazy and need to pay attention to supervision at all times. There are no other drawbacks!

"Lao You, you're disturbing the apprentice again......"

A company commander came over and scolded the veteran oil very dissatisfied.

The reason why the above did not send this army to the front line, but let them guard the prisoners and build fortified fortresses, was largely to take care of Wang Shouwei, a mage apprentice.

Give it a chance to grow!

The officer's order was to try not to disturb Wang Shouwei and let him learn the knowledge of mages.

It's just that this long-eyed veteran is always disturbing Wang Shouwei, which makes the company commander very dissatisfied.

However, at this time, he himself did not have a title, and when facing the veteran oil, he couldn't help but lack confidence.

And of course, there are other tasks as well!

For example, now, the company commander called the veteran soldier away and asked Wang Shouwei to go and cast a spell.

Of course, letting Wang Shouwei cast spells is just a nice thing to say.

After all, what kind of spell can a mage apprentice cast?

It's just a matter of pouring the potions prepared by the alchemists on the fort that has been built.

These forts were built with local materials, wood, stones, etc. from the vicinity.

It is said that it is quite strong, after all, the lowest is a tree held by one person, and the defense of the fort cannot be too bad.

However, in the face of the attack of this indigenous enemy, it is not too safe.

At this time, Wang Shouwei was needed, chanted a spell, and sprayed the alchemy potion on the fortress.

The magic brilliance flashed, and the building, which was originally just a mortal thing, was plated with a faint metallic color.

What seemed to be a small bottle of alchemy potion penetrated into every tree and stone in the fortress, and finally turned all these things into a black, metal-like substance, and then condensed into a whole.

Every time they saw this kind of scene, everyone had to admire the magic of the spell.

In particular, the hatred in the eyes of the captives who were in charge of the work faded and turned into fear.

"This spell is so fucking powerful, tsk, the defense has been increased more than three times, right?"

"The price is also very powerful...... Wang Shouwei said without blinking his eyes: "Such a bottle of alchemy elixir costs three thousand gold coins, you calculate it yourself, how much does it cost to build these fortresses alone?"
