"Damn, you're really busy, old man. It's been so long that I've only used you once, and you still disturb people's dreams. You're a sleeping fairy," Murong Xiaotian smiled teasingly.
"Boss, in your eyes, am I really that old? We are girls. Oh my God, boss, you are so shocking." Two drops of bird tears actually came out of the eyes of this kamikaze.
"Puch!" Everyone present burst into laughter, and Long'er even giggled non-stop.
"Okay, I was wrong. Beautiful little sister, come here and take a look." Murong Xiaotian smiled and waved to Kamikaze. After she flew over, he pointed at the map of the 'Forgotten Continent' and said: "You put this Take note of the map, especially these two places,"
Murong Xiaotian said, pointing to the locations of 'Guangyue City' and 'Black Sun City', the imperial capital of the 'Dark Empire'.
"OK, remember," Kamikaze said within half a minute, lifting her wings.
"Okay, go and investigate the situation in these two places clearly, mainly how many troops there are and what types of arms they are," Murong Xiaotian ordered.
"Boss, I'm the messenger, how can you treat me as a scout? It's not fair," Kamikaze shouted openly.
"Would you like to go? If not, I will give you to her to play with," Murong Xiaotian pointed at Long'er and said very seriously.
"I'm going, why don't you go," Kamikaze said, and his figure had disappeared without a trace in the palace.
Kamikaze, the unique messenger bird in "Destiny", is the fastest and fastest flying beast in "Destiny". No other flying species can have the ability to fly and teleport like it.
Murong Xiaotian firmly believed that the divine wind would bring accurate information within two or three hours at most.
"Marshal Shoton, prepare 100 tons of steel and ten 100-meter-long, wrist-thick iron chains, which can lay four to five hundred square meters of ten-centimeter-thick plates. How much time will it take?" After seeing the kamikaze leave, , Murong Xiaotian asked again.
"Steel and iron chains are readily available in the weapons and equipment manufacturing facility in the imperial capital. As for wooden boards and siege equipment manufacturing facilities, you can get whatever you need," Marshal Shorten replied with a smile.
"Very good," Murong Xiaotian nodded and glanced at the faces of the four regiment commanders: "Where is the commander of the light cavalry regiment?"
"Master Thief, what are your orders?" A legion commander stood up respectfully.
"I order you to bring a hundred light cavalry. You don't need to bring any weapons and equipment. You only need to bring shovel and pick tools for digging. Set off immediately. From here, go northwest to the holy river beside Shiji Mountain and stand by." Murong After Xiaotian finished speaking, he picked up the map and pointed at the specific location.
Murong Xiaotian has already seen it. This is the shortest route from here to the edge of Shiji Mountain, across the Holy River, into the territory of the 'Dark Empire', and directly into the 'Black Sun City', the imperial capital of the 'Dark Empire'.
He estimated that all light cavalry units would be used to advance quickly. In half a day, they would be able to reach the Black Sun City.
"Yes, Sir Thief," the commander of the light cavalry regiment gave Murong Xiaotian a standard knight military salute, then saluted King Buck and Princess Suya, and then quickly left the palace.
Everyone was puzzled by Murong Xiaotian's arrangement, but they didn't ask. Soldiers have a bounden duty to obey orders. They didn't need to ask, they just had to carry out the orders.
"Marshal Shoton, arrange it immediately. The four legions, all the logistics equipment, siege equipment, and other messy things are not required. I will change the heavy cavalry regiment into the second light cavalry regiment. I will only bring weapons and two days' training. Dry food, be ready to go, must be completed within three hours,"
"Yes, Sir Thief, you will never miss anything," Shorten responded, and hurriedly left with the other three legion commanders.
Changing heavy cavalry into light cavalry is a simple matter. Just take off all the heavy helmets, heavy armor, and defensive lassoes on the horses. Only bring two days of dry food and nothing else. As soon as the troops are assembled, they can set off. Let alone three hours, as long as they have two hours, Shuton can ensure that the four legions are ready to go.
"Let's go to the weapons and equipment manufacturing facility," Murong Xiaotian stood up after seeing Xiu Dun and others leaving.
After leaving the palace, there was already some chaos outside. The war readiness announcement issued by the empire had already made people panic. Of course, it was only the common people, and the city protection guards continued to patrol as usual.
When they arrived at the weapons and equipment manufacturing factory, Murong Xiaotian was quite impressed. There were actually thousands of craftsmen inside, and the facilities for manufacturing weapons and equipment were quite complete. It's no wonder that without such a family, how could one build a factory? Lifting Cavalry Regiment.
"Each piece of these solid irons weighs ten tons," Barton said to Murong Xiaotian, pointing to the solid irons in the reserve.
Murong Xiaotian looked at the huge amount of various materials and was secretly frightened. He didn't know how many pieces of solid iron were ten meters long, wide and high, and he didn't know how many various chains there were.
In fact, this is not surprising at all. There has been no war between the 'Light Empire' and the 'Dark Empire' for hundreds of years, but armaments have always been carried out. The mining of iron ore, copper ore, and various materials has never stopped. The smelting work of materials is still going on, and after hundreds of years, it will not be enough even if there is not much.
The power of the people is great, and the wisdom of the people is infinite. With such heavy solid iron, without large machinery, they can still use the principle of leverage and the method of rolling wood to stack them neatly one by one.
As for those chains, they were of course used for building bridges. Su Ya told her along the way that in fact, some people had originally thought about building a bridge over the holy river.
However, the current of the Holy River is very fast. It is impossible to drive piles in the water. Let's build an iron lock bridge. At least there are people on the opposite side who can use certain tools to fix the other side of the chain here. Pull it over.
However, it is impossible for people from the 'Light Empire' to appear on the other side, and it is impossible for people from the 'Dark Empire' to appear here, so this method will not work.
This 'Forgotten Empire' is no different from the "Destiny" game area. There are no such things as Warcraft. Of course, it is impossible to fly there. The shipbuilding technology is very simple, that is, building some small wooden boats and small sailboats. But such a ship can be placed in In the holy river, they were either knocked over by the waves or washed up against the cliffs and shattered into pieces. Therefore, after trying countless times, they gave up.
In fact, the 'Bright Empire' wishes that there would be no bridge over the Holy River, otherwise, their defensive front would be stretched too long.
After turning on the automatic loading function of the Chaos Ring, loading a dozen pieces of solid iron, and ten 100-meter-long chains, Murong Xiaotian left the weapons manufacturing facility. Of course, the chains were coiled, otherwise, Can't load either.
This move made King Buck and Su Yazhen dumbfounded.
When we arrived at the siege equipment ring room, there were even more boards, four meters long, four meters wide, and ten centimeters thick. Murong Xiaotian installed hundreds of them in one breath, and also installed a lot of 'horse nails'. and dozens of carpentry hammers, and left.
This "horse nail" is made of iron bars, 20 centimeters long, with a five-centimeter-long tip on each end that is at an angle of 90 degrees to the iron bar.
When two wooden boards are put together, you only need to nail the two ends of the "horse nails" on the top of the two boards, and the two boards can be firmly connected together.
In the past, many wooden houses and wooden boats were built using this kind of thing.
Murong Xiaotian was also quite surprised when he saw the siege equipment built by these guys. That thing looked really terrifying, but it was a pity that it was too big to fit into the Chaos Ring. Otherwise, Murong Xiaotian would have to get a batch of them. It cannot be put into the Ring of Chaos.
But even so, Murong Xiaotian still asked them for a copy of the manufacturing design drawings of city assault vehicles, trebuchets, and siege tower vehicles.
The mainstream of "Destiny" in the future will be war and siege cities and territories. There is no guarantee that these things will be put to use anytime soon.
This time, King Buck gave it to him very generously.
After finishing these things, Murong Xiaotian, King Buck, Su Ya, and Long Er went to the military camp outside the city. They were already ready to go, and the kamikaze should be back soon.
At this time, the sky was getting dark. Murong Xiaotian looked at the time and saw that it was already past eight o'clock in the evening. There was only one day and twenty hours left before the 'sacred altar' disappeared.
It's another moonlit night, but the lights outside the 'Guangming City' are brightly lit. Countless torches are lit near each military camp; 200,000 people from four legions are lined up in a neat square formation, and you can't see the end at a glance. , all waiting for the order to set off.
Before reaching the military camp, the shadow of Kamikaze appeared on Murong Xiaotian's shoulder: "Boss, I'm back,"
"How is the situation?" Murong Xiaotian asked as he walked towards the military camp.
"'Guangyue City' has an army of 4.78 million, half of which are infantry. One-third of the infantry is heavy infantry, and the remaining half is two-fifths of light cavalry and one-fifth of heavy infantry. Cavalry, one-fifth of the armored chariot troops, and one-fifth of the logistics and various military equipment troops,"
Kamikaze's words made Buck and Su Ya gasp, especially when they heard that the opponent also had armored chariot troops, their faces changed color. If they had to charge face to face, they would be completely defeated.
They couldn't think of any way for Murong Xiaotian to win, but seeing Murong Xiaotian's calm and unhurried expression, their hearts became much more stable.
This is basically consistent with what Su Ya said. An army of 500,000 people should have lost 20,000 to 30,000 people when they attacked Guangyue City. The cost of destroying an army of 100,000 people from the "Guangyue Empire" can be said to be Complete victory.
"Haha, I overheard the conversation of their senior generals. At eight o'clock tomorrow morning, they will leave only 50,000 people to garrison the 'Guangyue City'. The rest of the troops will set off to march towards the 'Guangming City', the imperial capital of the 'Guangming Empire'," God Feng said with a smile again.
However, why did this laughter sound so unpleasant to Murong Xiaotian?
