early morning,

It was just dawning.

Qin Ge walked out of the blue hall and was about to summon troops to attack actively. A strong wind fell in the sky. A gray owl knight in charge of reconnaissance and alert jumped off gracefully, bowed to Qin Ge and said, "Lord, we have found traces of enemies around the territory."

"around?"

Qin Ge was stunned. What the hell? Logically, with the development speed of the virus camp, it is impossible to be able to struggle with the four armies to attack in such a short period of time.

“Where is the exact location?”

"There are five enemy Grey Owl Knights and 80 Sword Cavalrymen at thirty kilometers north, but they seem to go south unintentionally and just wander around there. Thirty kilometers west is also an enemy of this size, and then the four directions south and east are like this."

When Qin Ge heard about the deployment of the virus's troops, he frowned. He thought he already knew what was going on. The virus has now adopted the delay tactic.

He will not take the initiative to attack, but he cannot take the initiative to attack again, because no matter which direction he attacks, the enemy troops from the other three directions can pounce immediately.

After all, there is still a lack of air supremacy.

Qin Ge sighed in his heart that he only had 12 Grey Owl Knights, but the virus had enough 20 Grey Owl Knights. It can be foreseen that the virus would continue to recruit more Grey Owl Knights. Even if he had a sniper rifle in his hand, he could beat dozens or hundreds of Grey Owl Knights in the sky?

What's more, he only has 20 sniper bullets left in his hand.

What if the virus's 20 Grey Owl Knights play hide-and-seek with him, what should I do if I fly a kite?

In addition, all the soldiers sent by the virus are highly mobile Knights and Grey Owl Knights. This configuration is purely disgusting. If you come and hit me, I will run away immediately. If you don’t hit me, I won’t run away. If you go back, I will come again.

Well, this is really hard to describe.

"Then, let's explore and log wood first."

Qin Ge decided to give up taking the initiative. He couldn't let the virus lead the nose, that would be too stupid.

"Call fifty archers and ask them to log in the woods east of the territory, create some simple arrow towers for me, and then divide fifty level 1 archers. I want to take them to prospect."

Qin Ge quickly issued an order that there were no special loggers and miners in the civilized buildings of the Gray Ears, because this was a civilization where everyone was soldiers, but because of their cleverness, they could master various life skills after retirement.

For example, in addition to basic attributes and combat skills, the gray-eared infantry also masters the farmer level 5, miner level 5, logging level 5, construction level 5, and breeding level 5. This is clearly the logistics army.

The gray-eared archers also control the farmer level 3, miner level 3, logging level 3, construction level 3, breeding level 3, production level 3, etc., so they can make it themselves without drawings.

To the east of the territory is a mountain, and there are dense primeval forests on it, so logging is very simple, and you are not afraid of viruses and sending troops to harass you.

The exploration is a bit complicated, so the detection eye on Qin Ge's left shoulder needs to be used. After activation, this eye can see through the invisibility and can also see a hundred meters of underground ore veins, which is very effective.

When he arrived on the mountain, Qin Ge activated the eye of detection and shot towards the ground. He saw that the ground seemed to become more vibrant and colorful.

The gray ones are soil, the white ones are stone, the yellow ones are copper ore, the red ones are iron ore, and the black ones are coal mines, but the quantity is not large.

Qin Ge was not in a hurry. He walked along the mountains. There were several gray owl knights in the sky who were responsible for alerting and kept in touch with the territory at any time, including the dynamics of the four enemy harassing teams.

"Huh? Coal mines, or coal mines on the surface!"

Under a mountain branch three kilometers away from the territory, Qinge discovered a coal mine strata, buried three meters deep on the surface, and the number was still huge.

"Just here, dig it down directly, and find a way to carry it back after digging it out."

Qin Ge simply issued an order. Anyway, for the Gray-Eared people with cleverness and talent, they will definitely come up with a solution.

Then he continued to wander above the mountains. He didn't expect to discover any large mines, just reserved dozens of tons. His territory was destined to take the path of fighting to support war, otherwise it would not develop at all, and the virus would not give him enough time to develop. I think at most tomorrow, the virus would have a larger army to attack.

Just after going around, Qin Ge wandered all the mountains within five kilometers near the territory, but no iron ore was found. No matter how far it was, transportation would be a big problem.

Qin Ge can only give up temporarily because he keeps opening the detection eye and also needs to consume qi and blood value. He does not have enough qi and blood value to consume now.

When they returned to the territory, the 50 archers had already started carrying coal back.

Their attributes are very high, so each person carries 500 kilograms of coal and can still trot back all the way.

So Qin Ge sent another 50 archers to dig coal.

The group of archers who logged wood had the same speed and efficiency. In just a few hours, all the trees on a hill to the east were cut down, and even the first archery tower had begun to be built.

Qin Ge initially wanted to create some simple arrow towers, which could shoot from a high place, add a lid, and resist feathered arrows from the sky.

As a result, the manufacturing methods of those gray-eared archers really surprised him, because the first arrow tower they built was as high as ten meters, with a side length of six x six meters, and an arrow tower that can accommodate up to 15 archers on it.

While this surprised Qin Ge, he finally gave him a new idea, so he immediately sent all the remaining archers and sword cavalry to log wood. If there were 20 arrow towers like this in his territory, then there was basically no need to worry about the harassment of those virus-gray owl knights.

When he returned to the blue hall, Qin Ge felt a little tired and hungry. He had no choice but to break into this virus camp the morning before yesterday. After a series of battles, he did not dare to relax. He had to stare at night to prevent virus attacks. The pressure was imaginable.

Take out a few pieces of jerky from your backpack, and Qin Ge thought while eating.

“The food problem needs to be solved.”

Since the gray-eared soldiers were recruited by blue crystals, they brought their own supplies for seven days after they came out, which means they didn't have to worry about their food and drink within seven days.

After seven days, there are two ways to supplement food. One is to use blue crystals directly, and one blue crystal can serve food for 20 soldiers for a day.

The second method is to take the regular route and supplement ordinary food. A soldier can reach 20 kilograms a day.

"Farming is not feasible, so it still has to be developed by fighting to support the war. Now that I have an arrow tower, the Grey Owl Knight, who is not afraid of viruses, is it possible to attack another wave?"

This bold idea was quickly pressed by Qin Ge. Now he has fought with the virus for four or five times in a row. In any case, the virus cannot underestimate him anymore. If the virus has a commander, it will definitely not allow him to succeed easily. This can be seen only by looking at the virus arrangement today. If he dares to take the initiative, even if Lao Chao Wuyou will be ambushed halfway.

But if the virus army does not take the initiative to attack again, it will definitely be a superior crush. Can his territory hold on?

Qin Ge was a little worried until his eyes swept over Zhao Xin and Yu Yue who were like little adults, and a sudden inspiration broke out in his mind.

"Well, wait, actually, taking the initiative may not necessarily have to dispatch large troops, and even the Grey Owl Knight is not necessary. Zhao Xin and Yu Yue are now foundation-building swordsmen. With one move, three rings can eliminate any virus soldiers except the virus lord in seconds, so - I have a way."
