Chapter 42 Continuous Raiders Resource Points
It turned out that leading an army to attack resource points was so easy and comfortable. Of course, Qu Mao led the army to continue to attack new resource points without hesitation.
At first, he thought about the food crisis and asked Sunan to go back and lead the people here, but Qu Mao thought about it, it would only take a day or two at most, why not go hunting by himself, or bring the army to hunt collectively, because he was afraid that there would be no food , Simply recruit directly if there is no resident garrison, anyway, you still have a lot of resident recruitment coupons.
After the cheating system made a comprehensive assessment of the combat power of Qu Mao's army, it continued to prompt the next resource point. The latest resource point is a crystal mine, about 500 meters away from here, and still no more than one kilometer away from the lord's hut. .
The crystal mine is still guarded by beasts, and the cheating system gives a hint that there are 12 black bears whose strength is equivalent to the third rank and 4 tigers whose strength is equivalent to the third rank, adding up to a total of 16 beasts whose strength is equivalent to the third rank.
Compared with the metal mine garrisoned by 18 wild wolves, the garrison strength of this crystal mine has been greatly improved, but obviously the cheating system believes that it is still not the opponent of Qu Mao's army.
Let’s not talk about the attack power bonus of the spectacle building’s violent totem pole on Qumao’s army, but the army itself also has occupational bonuses, and beasts do not. No matter how large the herd is, there will be no occupational bonuses or army bonuses.
Su Nan, as a veteran who once served in the third-tier army, seemed to emphasize to Qu Mao that as long as the army is formed, there will be combat bonuses.
But before arriving at the crystal mine, Qu Mao carefully made some preparations in advance. After all, he carried hundreds of bamboos in his backpack anytime and anywhere, and it would be easy to spend dozens of bamboos to build a temporary bamboo horse.
When the second-level archer Chaifield was first recruited, the leaders of Quanyi Village hid in the lord's hut and killed a black bear, which is still vivid in my mind.
In the end, the wooden door of the lord's hut was almost smashed by the black bear, so the black bear could be killed.
Now the position is built 100 meters away from the beasts stationed in the crystal mine. The range of the second-level archers can reach 150 meters. Considering the dense vegetation in the forest, Qu Maocai built the position only 100 meters away from the beasts.
After finishing these, Qu Maocai ordered the army to line up and asked Chaffield to shoot arrows to attract monsters.
The tigers were faster than the black bears, so they were hit faster than the black bears. They didn't rush to the front of the position 50 meters, and the four tigers whose strength was equivalent to the third level were lying on the ground without any movement.
Although the speed of the black bear is slow, its skin is thick and its flesh is rough. When it rushed to the bamboo horse, there were still seven or eight of them left, but all of them were injured. Pai Sanzhu refused the horse, and was stabbed seven or eight times by the long weapons of the first-tier spearmen and second-tier halberd soldiers.
The first-tier sword and shield soldiers were very aggrieved. They had no chance to attack while wearing a shield and being blocked by bamboo horses.
There were two sword and shield soldiers who were so eager to make contributions that they didn't even bother to maintain the formation. They jumped over the bamboo horse and rushed to fight the black bear.
Seeing this posture, Qu Mao was not worried about the safety of the sword and shield soldiers at all, but it was a pity that the bear skin would become even more incomplete.
There is no doubt that this battle won again without injury. The crystal mine was conquered, and the cheating system properly reminded Qu Mao that the 18 resource mines marked by it were all conquered and could be directly stationed by the people to resume production. , which means that Qu Mao just needs to attack and prepare to lead the people.
Stationed the 10 previously recruited citizens, and Qu Mao recruited 10 ordinary citizens again and handed them over to Sunan to lead.
Under normal circumstances, resource mines outside the scope of the territory, in addition to arranging the garrison to resume production, also need to arrange military defense, because when the garrison is stationed in the mine for production, it is possible to be attacked by wild beasts, magical beasts or hostile forces .
However, these resource mines are not far from the lord's hut, and Qu Mao has no other heroes. There is only one internal affairs officer, Su Yan, who is a hero. There will be no way to divide troops to defend these mines for a while. For the time being, only three are required. The first-order sailors patrolled and did not arrange troops to garrison.
Arranged for the garrison of the people, and told them that someone would deliver meals at noon, Qu Mao did not waste too much time, and continued to lead the army to the next resource point.
Continuous battles in the army consume a lot of physical strength, and the increase in fatigue will also lead to a decline in combat effectiveness, so Qu Mao judges that at most the next resource mine can be captured in the morning.
The resource mine suggested by the cheating system this time is a gem mine, which is guarded by all tigers, with a total of 20 tigers.
The speed of the tiger is very fast, and its jumping ability is far superior to that of a black bear. Ordinary bamboo horses cannot stop the tiger's footsteps.
But necessary safety measures still need to be taken, so Qu Mao insisted on building a taller bamboo horse.
Chaifield and others dissuaded them one after another, and the opposition from the first-order sword and shield soldiers was the most intense.
Zhao Pan said: "Master, the army has been dispatched for a whole morning, and now it is the third battle. The comrades are very tired, and the subordinates think that there is no need to waste time building bamboo horses.
It will take at least half an hour longer for you to build the bamboo horse.
Let’s go straight to the battle, the big guys can still catch up with lunch after the fight, and don’t delay the time for eating..."
Qu Mao said angrily: "Damn! You are a foodie, what do you mean you don't delay the time for eating? Don't you know that it is safer to put on the bamboo horses and comrades?..."
Zhang Da followed Qu Mao the longest, and persuaded him: "My lord, it's not that the subordinates disregard the safety of their comrades. It's really wrong."
Zhaifidel has already begun to bend his bow and set his arrows, and said: "Please rest assured, my lord, my subordinates are absolutely sure to end the battle without any damage, so there is no need to waste time!
Besides, the adults are just the lords of the subordinates, and there is no general to directly control the subordinates, so the subordinates can decide the timing of the battle by themselves. "
After Chafidel finished speaking, the bow and arrow in his hand had already been released, and a feathered arrow shot towards the tiger guarding the gemstone mine.
Cold sweat broke out on Qu Mao's forehead. It's nothing. Sure enough, if the loyalty is low, it's unreliable, and his army doesn't obey his orders.
But the battle had already begun, and the second-tier archers had already started shooting "boom boom boom". Qu Mao had to manifest the excellent dagger in his equipment bar, and stared nervously at the direction of the tiger.
The result of the final battle proved that he was indeed worrying too much.
Only about 10 tigers rushed to the vicinity, but were blocked by the shields of the sword and shield soldiers. The spearmen and halberd soldiers pushed forward, and the sword and shield soldiers swung their knives. Basically, they were killed immediately without any disturbance. Feng Lang, even the ten ordinary citizens led by Sunan in the back row did not appear to be frightened in any way.
The gem mine continued to arrange 10 ordinary citizens to be on duty, and Qu Mao began to lead the army to retreat.
Sunan had to send someone to arrange lunch for the residents stationed at the three resource points, so Qu Mao took Sunan back to the vicinity of the lord's hut.
On the way to withdraw the troops, Qu Mao humbly asked Zhang Da, the outstanding spearman who followed him first, about the issue of command.
Zhang Da said: "My lord, you are the lord, and you have the right to govern all the troops in our territory, but it is different on the battlefield. Either you fill us into your direct army, or you have to arrange a hero to lead us." us.
We are all professional soldiers, but we are only soldiers. The generals who control us can appoint us as small captains, squadron leaders, or large captains of the army, but we have no way to control the army across professions.
In normal times, our first order is naturally you, the lord, but in wartime, we first take orders from the heroes who rule us, secondly take orders from our direct captain officers, and thirdly take orders from you. "
Qu Mao nodded half-understood. Although Zhang Da was the first to follow him, his aptitude was only at the excellent level after all, and he might not have expressed it very clearly. It seems that he still has to go back and talk to Su Yan.
