Imagine seventy or eighty giant pigs with tusks running rampant on a flat open land.
Among them, the smallest ones all reach a body length of two to three meters.
This resulted in an extremely chaotic scene, with wild boars howling, running, and neighing and wailing after being attacked.
As the blood-toothed wild boars continued to make commotion, the originally flat ground was also plowed with plow marks by the pig's hooves.
The dry floating soil was thrown up, and the dust in the sky obscured the view, making every breath carry a smell of earth.
Zong Shen and Reese Ulysses stood aside, looking at the chaotic scene in front of them with interest.
A total of five squadrons, with a total of 600 wolf cavalry soldiers, dealt with 70 to 80 blood-toothed wild boars, which can be regarded as a rare "collective activity" in the territory in recent times.
As there has been a lack of large-scale wars in the territory recently, this blood-tooth wild boar capture operation can be regarded as a warm-up for the brothers before the war.
There is a difference between killing and capturing alive, the latter is more challenging than the former.
In particular, the number of these blood-toothed wild boars is large enough, and they have formed a large scale. It is difficult to control them when they rush together in a group.
The Wolf Cavalry's [Catching Net] is indeed a very practical control skill, but the restriction effect of this skill is linked to the target's size and strength attributes.
After all, the Wolf Cavalry is only a second-level light cavalry.
Although their attributes and actual combat abilities are quite good among second-tier arms, the gap between them is there.
Therefore, [Catching Net] can only slightly restrict the mobility of the Blood-tusked Wild Boar. The key to the success of this plan lies in the Blood-tusked Wild Boar King.
As long as the blood wolf Gugat can subdue the Bloodtusk Boar King as soon as possible and let Zong Shen conclude a [Pet Contract] with him, then the remaining Bloodtusk Boars will not be a concern.
Zong Shen looked at the blood wolf Gugat, who was jumping and nimble and constantly leaving wounds on the Wild Boar King, without any intention of taking action.
Although he is a lord who likes to fight with muscles, it does not mean that he must take action in any battle that occurs inside and outside the territory.
This time, the Blood Wolf Gugat was clearly able to suppress the Wild Boar King. Although the situation was chaotic, he was still under control, so Zong Shen chose to wait and see rather than take action.
When it's time to start a group, you should bravely start a group. When it's time to lie down, you should lie down. This is the life a lord should have.
He stood on the outside with Reese Ulysses with his hands behind his back.
The wolf cavalry used the squad as a basic unit to move flexibly to avoid the charge of the Bloodtusk Boar.
In the open underground of such pastures, prairie wolves have higher mobility and flexibility than large wild boars.
Just because Zong Shen formulated the strategy of capturing him alive, no one dared to attack at will. They used medium-range [throwing spears], slashed with sabers from behind, and immediately escaped after one hit, which continued to consume blood.
The physical strength and health of the Tusk Boars.
Among beasts and monsters of the same level, Bloodtusk Boars are relatively rough-skinned and thick-bodied. They have relatively high double resistance and health points. They are relatively common in the mountains and forests, and they are also relatively tough beasts.
In addition, the reproductive capacity of the Bloodtusk Wild Boar is not weak, but there are many predators in the mountains and forests. In the eyes of those powerful monsters and beasts, every Bloodtusk Wild Boar is a moving piece of fresh meat.
Bloodtusk wild boars can breed a batch of wild boars every five months. Each litter has about ten piglets. Under natural circumstances, the highest survival rate can even reach 95. Of course, this is when there is no threat of predators.
Condition.
Whenever a Bloodtusk wild boar is on the verge of extinction, it can always quickly restore its population.
Their strong reproductive ability is also one of the secrets to their ability to be active in the mountains and forests.
In addition, Bloodtusk wild boars are also very capable of survival and adaptability. In the wild environment, they are almost not picky about food. They will eat whatever they catch and whatever is available. They are not expensive at all and can adapt to harsh environments.
.
Finally, in terms of combat effectiveness, the Bloodtusk Wild Boar is one of the most reckless beasts of the same class. The frontal collision of its fangs is quite powerful, and it belongs to the category that can produce miracles with great force.
This is especially true when their collision advantages are fully utilized on the ground battlefield.
To deal with them, it is only suitable to adopt tactics of roaming and consumption, rather than stupid head-on collision with them.
As far as collision is concerned, they can basically exert damage capabilities beyond this level.
Therefore, the Bloodtusk Wild Boar is also a beast with great potential. If it can be tamed smoothly, Zong Shen will be able to have a very large Bloodtusk Wild Boar group in time.
There are still a group of wolf cavalry warriors who have lost their wargs in Zong Shen's territory. Although the [Giant Wolf's Nest (Purple)] can recruit third-level giant wolves, it can only recruit 5 wolves a week. This number is really too large for the Buddha type.
It took a little while, only twenty heads a month, and it took half a year to save up the number needed for a squadron.
Such a recruitment mechanism, coupled with a week-long cooling time, made Zong Shen complain more than once, but he had no choice. This is the underlying rule set by the lord system, which is clearly marked on the building information.
.
Fortunately, the lord system provides a variety of recruitment methods and channels. In addition to using recruitment scrolls, there are also various recruitment buildings and props, and you can directly conquer aboriginal warriors including various tameable beasts.
This gives each lord unlimited possibilities to add troops to the territory through a variety of methods, improve combat effectiveness, and also lays the foundation for various self-trained troops in the future.
In fact, in Zong Shen's opinion, the self-trained troops in various military camps are to prepare the lords for their own DIY.
For example, if the Tier 3 [Dragon Ranger Barracks] wants to train a Tier 3 ranger, not only does it need a [Tier 3 Archer Training Book], but also the qualifications of the farmers participating in the training must reach the excellent level before training can be carried out.
This chapter is not over yet, please click on the next page to continue reading! After training, the farmer will become a third-level dragonborn ranger of the same level, and then improve certain attributes according to qualifications, and master corresponding warrior skills, making him reach the level of dragonborn.
The standard for a ranger, but in fact, a qualified warrior is not just about meeting the standards in terms of attributes and skills.
Equipment, combat experience, and combat style are the true criteria for measuring a military unit. This is the so-called characteristics.
Zong Shen can completely equip the "blank rangers" trained at the [Dragon Ranger Barracks] with the Night Ranger's standard battle bow and leather armor, and if possible, learn a few new skills. As long as these warriors are loyal to Zong Shen, they can also
If they have their own fighting style, they are a brand new special unit under Zong Shen.
The above is not Zong Shen's speculation, but fact.
In the final analysis, the special units of the major kingdom forces and church forces are like this.
The [Special Knowledge School (Gold)] in the territory can only teach various professional skills. In layman's terms, it is the "vocational and technical college" of the territory.
By analogy, Zong Shen estimates that there must be a special building that can teach combat skills, but he hasn't gotten it yet.
To sum up, if these blood-toothed wild boars can be conquered, Zong Shen can establish a "blood-toothed wild boar breeding base" in his territory.
At that time, the Bloodtusk Boars with higher levels and good talents can be kept as mounts to form a Wild Boar Rider army for the territory. As for the low-level Bloodtusk Boars, they can be slaughtered for meat.
As for the food source of wild boars, part of it can be solved through the kitchen waste in the territory. You must know that swill is a traditional "pig delicacy" on the earth. In addition, after the territory starts full-scale farming, agricultural and sideline products can also be used to make pig feed.
It's not a big deal.
Wild boars are still easy to feed, but if they don't work well, they can be released into the mountains.
You must know that wild boars have so many advantages, but they also have a disadvantage: they are difficult to tame!
But this shortcoming is not a big problem for the lords of Endless Continent.
Various contract props and items can be used to build loyalty between beasts and lords.
The most typical ones are [Pet Contracts] of various levels.
There are many other props with similar functions. For example, the [Domestication Fruit (Purple)] that Zong Shen once obtained has a similar taming effect as a contract.
Zong Shen has tamed the dragon-veined gryphon and the manticore-tailed tiger leader, and has long understood the true purpose of these items.
As long as you can tame the leader, you have tamed other similar beasts in the group.
Just after he watched the show for a while, [Lion and Skeleton Knight Richardson] also arrived at the scene.
With him as the leader, followed closely by the fifth- and sixth-order lion and skeleton knights.
After more than 10,000 years, Richardson can finally lead his brothers on a wild ride again.
After that are the [Lion Guard Knights] and [Lion Charge Knights].
Facing Richardson, who once held the authority of the Silver Lion Knights, the boundaries between the undead and the living had long been blurred, and all the Lion Knights spontaneously followed behind him.
Richardson led the team to Zong Shen's side, got off the skeletal horse and knelt down on one knee to salute.
The etiquette is almost impeccable, and Zong Shen is very satisfied with it.
Zong Shen himself was moved by its persistence and immortality. After surrendering, Richardson's loyalty was directly raised to 99 points, which is already the level of loyalty of a confidant.
Zong Shen doesn't need it to die, so he doesn't care about the last point from 99 to 100, because he believes that when the moment of crisis comes, Richardson will definitely pursue chivalry and loyalty.
He also briefly analyzed the reasons for Richardson's dissatisfaction with loyalty just now. It is most likely that there are unfinished regrets or some kind of eternal concern in his subconscious.
Maybe it’s its family, wife and children, the city it protects, etc…
Zong Shen nodded slightly to Richardson, and through the fluctuations of his soul, he exuded the idea of "calm down and don't be impatient".
After confirming his surrender, [Lion Skeleton Knight Richardson] got rid of his previous confused state and his behavior became somewhat normal.
He is also the first undead/undead hero-level talent under Zong Shen!
As the first foreign talent in the territory, it has far-reaching significance.
Taking into account the opposition between humans and the undead in all aspects, he prepared to establish an alien resettlement area.
This settlement area exists independently and will not be mixed with the rest areas of human warriors and farmers.
High-level undead actually possess not low intelligence, but because they have no needs such as appetite, lust, etc., they are incompatible with other living beings in their daily state.
But as long as Zong Shen can grasp the overall situation, he can establish a multi-ethnic territory.
Of course, this integration is not comprehensive and mandatory, but a natural behavior.
First through limited contact, and then gradually open up, everyone can go shopping and drink together, farm together, and fight together. As a lord, his ambition will never be limited to the three-acre land in front of him, or even to just rule.
Control a certain ethnic group!
This is the ambition and ambition in his heart!
Just when Richardson was riding the skeletal war horse, Zong Shen was thinking intently.
Suddenly there was a huge wild boar roar not far away.
Zong Shen took a closer look and realized that it was the guy Gujiat who had cut off its tail...
But that’s okay, it’s just the right time for dinner and dinner in the evening. The Wild Boar King’s pig tail is very thick and completely different from the pig tails on the earth. The thinnest part is as big as an adult’s arm. Cut such a big pig tail into small sections, and only one section is enough.
After eating, put the rest in the ice cellar.
The full amount of collagen is perfect for eating braised or fried in sauce.
To be honest, Zong Shen is greedy...
In this serious occasion of taming the blood-toothed wild boars, Zong Shen seemed to be taking a leisurely walk.
I saw that the Wild Boar King was struck with real fire. After the pig's tail was cut off, its eyes glowed with red eyes that represented madness, and it let out a huge roar.
True Piggy Wrath!
The surrounding blood-tusked wild boars also roared in unison.
The eyes of every blood-toothed wild boar glowed red, looking violent and excited.
Their movement speed has been greatly increased, and the less serious wounds on their bodies have begun to heal quickly. Even the fangs have a layer of red light rising, just like the clustered flames of "plasma".
"Good guy, is this a collective explosion?"
Zong Shen stood nearby and said in amazement.
After this wave, it became a little more difficult for the wolf cavalry to "walk" the pigs.
More than a dozen wolf cavalry were caught off guard and hit by the explosive wild boar. Fortunately, there were many people around, and they quickly took the injured wolf cavalry and the wargs to the rear through alternate cover.
Zong Shen raised his head and said softly to Tasia who was sitting behind a [Lion Charge Knight].
"Tasia, come down."
"All the Lion Knights obey the order and assist the Wolf Cavalry in encircling and destroying the Bloodtusk Wild Boar."
"Don't harm their lives unless necessary."
Tasia jumped off the horse obediently.
Then Zong Shen issued orders to these lion knights.
As high-level knights, they are more calm than the wolf cavalry and can "walk the pig" as much as they like!
