Chapter 403 Military Fortress Sap Solution
How can we defend against the attack of arrow feathers like raindrops?
Being able to keep the enemy out of range is of course the best result, but what if it cannot be stopped? Everything in the village, including the wild beasts in captivity, will be destroyed when war comes.
To solve this problem, Fu Xingyun built a wooden tower in the valley with reference to the stone gate design. Pulling the cane can spread four huge wings made of wooden boards. After being expanded, it can effectively cover important building complexes, so as to block the flying arrow feathers and reduce casualties. This method is simple and effective, but the coverage of a wooden tower is always limited and not enough to deal with all crises. After careful consideration, he drew seven circles on the map to indicate the location of the building of the wooden tower.
A month later, seven wooden towers rose up from the ground, plus the previous one, eight. When all the wings were spread out, the entire village was protected by the wooden tower. In this way, even if they were attacked by tens of thousands of arrow feathers at a certain moment, the village could be safe and sound.
In addition to preventing the village from being penetrated by arrow feathers, we must also prevent the enemy from forcibly siegeing the city. Sharp bones have been buried outside the valley, which can prevent large-scale charges, but are far from enough.
Fu Xingyun stood outside the valley and looked at the stone wall speechless for a long time. "There are at least ten paths to climb up the rock." The stone wall is formed by the force of nature. In fact, there are many points of land. This is like walking on flat ground for some climbing experts. When attacking Yanli Village, Fu Xingyun and Li Zi also entered in this way in a noble way. They must not let the same thing happen again.
Fu Xingyun found Li Zi, who was a climbing expert. "Fine and block every road you see."
Little Lizi showed a hint of embarrassment. "Brother Fu, the person has nowhere to exert force in the air. This is a huge project, which is a hundred times more difficult than building a wooden tower."
"Time is endless. Little Lizi, no matter how difficult it is, organize people to do it quickly."
"good!"
Fu Xingyun believes that when the stone wall is repaired, Yanli Village will become a veritable military fortress. "The valley's defense has been enhanced, and the only flaw is that the personal defense is restored to the ground." When the two armies face off, they will cause huge casualties. If the ability to bear exceeds the ability, even if the valley is indestructible, it will be destroyed.
"It would be great if the guards could be equipped with armor." The solid city walls and hard armor could create miracles in this way, only two hundred guards could be used to create them.
But where did the armor come from? The big clan may have a way to obtain it, but for small villages, it is a luxury. If not, you can only rely on yourself.
Fu Xingyun suddenly thought of the gadfly and the blind man who had been hunted. The epidermis of these two dead creatures are extremely tough and can defend against arrow feather attacks. They are excellent materials for making battle suits.
"Little Lizi, hurry up and go to the headquarters to see if you can retrieve the gadfly and the blind man's skin. This is very important!"
"Yes!" Little Lizi set off without stopping.
The skins of most beasts will be discarded at will, and only a few soft skins such as bears and foxes will be kept to make clothes. It has been a year since Fu Xingyun is not sure if he can find them.
The day passed, and Li Zi did not come back. It didn't take so long to travel between Lianshan Village Headquarters and Yanli Village Branch. Fu Xingyun had a premonition that things might not go too smoothly. As expected, the next day, Li Zi came back, but only half of the gadfly sack was found, and the other three blind sacks were gone.
"Brother Fu, I have tried my best."
"clear!"
In the next time, Fu Xingyun locked himself in the house and carefully studied the half of the skin. The texture was harder than the steel bars and there was no possibility of processing folds at all. With the current processing level, he was helpless and had to use other methods to turn waste into treasure.
Fu Xingyun invited an old woman and asked her to keep burning fire to steam the animal skin. One day passed, no change, two days passed, the animal skin was still as solid as before, three days passed, and the same was true.
Looking at the heat that was surging like fog, Fu Xingyun showed a puzzled expression. "Is this method useless?" The iron block can dissolve in high temperatures, and the skin should also be affected by warmth. Although the boiling water cannot achieve the effect of melting, what we need to do now is not melting, but softening. Can't even achieve this step?
Things seemed not that simple! Fu Xingyun suddenly missed Old Man Zhou very much. He was a master, born and died for refining weapons. If he was still alive, there would definitely be a solution. However, with his vision and nobleness, he would disdain to deal with mortal weapons.
"I should have learned more at the beginning. By the way, I have not fulfilled his last wish before his death!" The so-called last wish is actually to engrave a magic circle on his body. This is a very bold idea, and he eventually died from this idea.
"What should I do?" For a moment, Fu Xingyun could not think of a better solution, so he had to put it aside for the time being.
At dusk, Lao Li led the hunting team back. This time, two people died when an accident occurred.
"What's going on?" Now it's time to use people, and one less person is a huge loss for the village.
"We met Niu Mang." Old Li looked tired. "They were killed while running away."
"Damn it! Where?"
"River buried in the grassland!"
"good!"
The next day, Fu Xingyun summoned ten first-class experts, including Little Li and Old Litou, and headed towards the river-burial grassland. Their purpose was not to hunt, but to pull out the dead creatures that threatened their tribesmen.
Soon, they arrived at the site of the incident, with blood stains on the ground, and a mess. "Be careful!" The beasts will not swim too far after eating, especially the pythons and other species. And according to inertia, they prefer to appear in places where hunting is successful. Therefore, the probability of encountering them again is extremely high.
As expected, it was discovered after searching for a long time. It was an adult bull mong, with a strong combat power. No wonder Lao Li was powerless. The bull mong was roaring and roaring. Fu Xingyun made the same mistake and stepped onto a seven-inch place in the chaos. This almost sentenced it to death. He pulled the arrow, pulled Xuan, accumulating power, shooting, one arrow after another, and soon, Niu Mong died.
Everyone peeled off the bark of the tree and dragged Niu Mang's body to go home.
"Cook it today, don't throw away the cut skin bags and send them to my room." Fu Xingyun instructed.
"yes!"
Although there has not been a way to use the skin of the dead creature, it is not a bad thing to prepare for the future. Soon, the hard skin was carried into his stone house and extended to a length of five meters. If it could be used, it would be enough to make ten pieces of armor. What a pity.
Fu Xingyun gently stroked the snake skin, and suddenly, he showed a shocked expression. Because a soft feeling came from a certain part of the skin just now, he quickly locked the area and stroked it again. It was true that from the outside, there was no difference from other places as hard as iron, but the feeling was completely different.
This area was softened! Why? How did the skin that could not even penetrate the arrow feathers soften? Isn't this exactly what he was looking for? "What must have happened?" Fu Xingyun carefully recalled the little bits of shooting Niu Mang, hoping to find the answer, but after recalling it from beginning to end, no abnormality was found.
"No, I have to go to the river to bury the grassland! This is very important to me." He set off with his arrow feathers.
"Sir Fu, it's almost dark, are you going out?" the guard reminded.
"Yes, don't tell others." After dark, the wilderness was full of murderous intent and hundreds of beasts were walking at night, which was very terrible, but Fu Xingyun couldn't control so much. He was afraid that if he went too late, the clues would be cut off.
He followed the trajectory of the hauling trajectory and found that when he arrived at the land where the river burial grassland was shot, there was no clue. At this time, it was already dark and the light was less than one-tenth of the day. If he didn't go back, he might be in danger of life. But he was unwilling to give up. He still carefully searched every grass and every piece of land, and almost searched through it but found nothing.
"Is it because I was wrong? The softened skin of the Niu Mang was not caused by this hunt, but other reasons. For example, when I was a child, I suffered a severe blow and affected the present. It is completely possible that I miscalculated it!"
There seemed to be a black shadow passing by in the sky, and it was becoming more and more dangerous. I couldn't delay any more. Fu Xingyun turned back as fast as possible. When he was halfway through, he showed a puzzled expression and his pace slowed down. "The tree just now..." He seemed to have grabbed something and returned again.
Yu Guangzhong seemed to see a tree with broken skin. This was an extremely common thing and was easily overlooked, but he did not miss any clues. He came to the tree, yes, it was indeed broken skin. Maybe he accidentally encountered it while transporting the cows. He was surprised to find that there was green juice flowing out of the place where he touched it.
"What liquid is this?" This was the first time he saw it.
At this time, the sky was completely dim and it was blurred five meters away. It was really not suitable to stay for a long time, but he still cut off a bamboo, made a bamboo tube, and collected a small amount of liquid samples.
"Ao..." The sound of the beast howling came, and two green light fires emerged not far away, but this was just the beginning. After a while, the light fires sprung like mushrooms after the rain.
"Not good!" Fu Xingyun knew that it was not a light, but a special phenomenon formed by the eyes of wild beasts in the moonlight. After repeated reversals, they finally attracted murderous intent.
What would it be? Wolf, Wild Dog, Cheetah or other even more terrifying beasts! Fu Xingyun ran away. "You must not be entangled by them, otherwise the consequences will be unimaginable."
The speed of a person is always limited. He was almost surrounded several times, but he successfully got rid of it. Of course, he also paid a heavy price.
