"You guys go ahead." Ms. Strategy was just as she came, her divine light faded away, leaving only Ms. Catherine.
Catherine had long been accustomed to this, and there was no difference between the changes. She asked: "General, can you tell me about your new tactics?"
Others clearly noticed the spiritual communication between Gavin and Catherine. No one asked, they just waited quietly.
"This new tactic is based on this new equipment, the dragon's breath flutter bomb." Gavin took out four dragon's breath flutter bombs with different attributes and handed them to everyone for circulation.
and gave them a rough explanation of the origin of the bomb.
"Making dragon breath into a flutter bomb? I'm afraid only the general dares to think and do this kind of thing. The dragon has existed for so many years. I have only heard of people imitating the dragon and obtaining special abilities or spells from dragon breath, but I never thought of using the dragon’s breath directly.”
"This is really a genius idea. Dragon's breath is the most powerful weapon of the dragons. With this weapon, wouldn't it be possible for an ordinary person to release the dragon's breath?"
"Theoretically, it's true. The premise is that there is a giant dragon willing to cooperate with this."
"Once this kind of equipment is deployed on a large scale, it will indeed have a disruptive effect on the war."
"This kind of equipment really tests the use of strategies and tactics. They will elevate the kobold's trap-making ability to the extreme. With just a few Howard convenience bags and a few trap makers, you can easily create a trap minefield. , holding back an army, thereby allowing the other side to delay its opportunity to fight."
"It's not just a trap, it can also be used with a trebuchet for long-distance throwing."
"Throwing from high altitude is also a method. There are not a large number of dragon-shaped kobolds in Colossus City. As long as they are equipped with such bombs, they can carry out large-scale aerial bombing."
"Wait a minute, the Lord of Sanoba mentioned the Cloud Ray before. You don't want to capture this super giant magical beast and airdrop it on a large scale, right?"
"She is worthy of being the first choice of ladies. You can associate it with just a few words. Yes, this is indeed one of its usages."
He is a smart guy on the field, but Gavin just took out the Dragon's Breath Flutter Bomb, and with just a few words from you and me, he pieced the whole thing together, and even integrated its usage into strategy. In tactics.
It actually saved Gavin a lot of explanation time.
Catherine obviously thought more: "The emergence of this new war tool will completely change the mode of war and increase the importance of air superiority. All countries and all armies must develop flying arms. Even if they do not have the power to bomb the enemy, they will It is necessary to ensure that enemy bombing units cannot easily penetrate into your own airspace for large-scale bombing.
In other words, before the enemy realizes this, the side with enough aerial bombing units will have the advantage.
Super-giant flying magical beasts like Cloud Ray will become the most important strategic weapon. You must seize the initiative and master as many of them as possible.
In fact, the most suitable weapon for this kind of weapon is not these flying magic beasts, but the magic spaceship. However, this manufacturing technology is currently only mastered by the mages of the Arua Kingdom, and they rarely sell it to the outside world.
It is far more convenient to attack them than flying magical beasts like cloud rays.
Whether it is a flying magical beast or a magical spaceship, they all have the disadvantage of slow movement speed and are easily targeted by those agile flying units.
Therefore, it is best not to dispatch these bulky aerial bombing units alone, but to be equipped with some flying units with strong air combat capabilities to cooperate. "
Ms. Strategy's ability as the first elector is not to be boasted. With just a few bombs, she has already analyzed the changes in the future war situation.
"Ms.'s analysis is very correct." Gavin shared his preliminary plan, "I have initially divided the air force into four types of units.
One is heavy bombing units, mainly cloud rays and magic spaceships that fly slowly, but can load a large number of dragon breath flutter bombs and carry out large-scale, long-distance aerial bombing. The advantages and disadvantages are very obvious. They must be coordinated under special circumstances. Used by other air arms.
The second type is a medium-sized guard unit with certain bombing capabilities and strong air combat capabilities. It is positioned as an auxiliary bombing unit and is mainly responsible for air combat. The flying dragon is the best choice, and the giant roc is also good.
The third type is light guard units. There are many of them and they are very complex. They can be cavalry composed of flying creatures such as Pegasus, Griffin, and Hippogriff.
It can also be a series of beings such as Erd, Harpy, and Ghost, who are born with the ability to fly.
Their main responsibility is protection, and they can even be used in conjunction with medium-sized guard units and heavy guard units. For example, those who throw dragon's breath flutter bombs on cloud rays can be those dragon-shaped kobolds. Their small size is in this situation It's actually an advantage.
The last type is the special flying unit, which mainly refers to the dragon. They are the spoilers of air combat. The first three types of flying units are difficult to fight against and must be treated specially. Fortunately, the chance of facing them directly on the battlefield is not great. "
Everyone couldn't help but nod their heads when they heard Gavin's classification, and couldn't find any fault with it.
Gavin continued: "We already have light escort units, mainly medium and heavy ones. I have sent people to comprehensively search for suitable targets. Currently, we are mainly focusing on flying dragons and cloud rays.
There is no need to worry about flying dragons, I already have a way to control and tame them.
The problem now is how to tame cloud rays. "
"If you ask us this question, I'm afraid you are asking the wrong person. Those powerful druids are the ones you are asking."
Everyone shook their heads in unison. If it was just a matter of killing, they could come up with several plans in the blink of an eye, but taming it was beyond their capabilities.
"That's right." Gavin asked casually. After all, he was not professionally qualified. In this regard, he had many more suitable people to ask, "Do you have any better ideas or suggestions about air combat? "
"There are a few small questions." Catherine asked, "Is the power and properties of this dragon's breath vibration bomb related to the dragon that produced them."
"Yes, the more powerful the dragon, the more powerful the Dragon Breath Flutter Bomb produced. Currently, I have no plans to cooperate with other dragons. These are the main ones we can produce ourselves." Gavin did this. Secrecy is only one aspect. On the other hand, those giant dragons are not so easy to deal with. The more powerful they are, the more difficult they are to deal with.
Just look at Ivinsa and you will know that this is true for a little dragon that has been cultivated for such a long time and has been subtly modified by himself, let alone one without friendship.
A dragon's breath can't be obtained without thousands of gold coins. It also depends on their mood.
The urinary nature of the dragon has advantages and disadvantages, and overall the advantages outweigh the disadvantages.
The disadvantage is that if you want cheap dragon breath flutter bombs, you have to raise your own dragons. If cooperation is not possible, you have to enslave.
The advantage is that the dragon's character is not directed at Gavin, but towards everyone and all forces.
When the recipe for Dragon Breath Flutter Bomb is leaked later, unless other forces also raise dragons like Gavin, it will be difficult for Dragon Breath Flutter Bomb to be popularized on a large scale and will be extremely expensive.
When it comes to enslaving dragons, Gavin, who has the mother dragon oak tree, has an absolute innate advantage.
At that time, those who can compete with Gavin in this aspect will mainly be those dragon forces.
"This kind of dragon breath vibration bomb is only limited to giant dragons? What about other powerful magical beasts with breath?" Catherine asked a new question.
Although there are not many magical beasts that can match dragon's breath in terms of breathing, it is not impossible.
“This utilizes not only the dragon’s breath, but also the ability of kobolds and dragons to synchronize and help each other. Currently, it only applies to dragons, half-dragons and dragon beasts.
I'm not sure whether this process can be replicated through magic and extended to other magical beasts with the ability to breathe. I haven't had time to organize people to conduct research yet. "Gavin told the truth.
"I have no more questions for now." Catherine said she had finished asking.
"What about the rest?"
"Ms. Catherine asked in great detail, but I don't have any more."
"Me neither."
They still need time to digest this brand new thing.
"Then let's continue the previous topic." Gavin handed the right to speak back to Shanoba, "Tell us about your development plans and the problems you face?"
"The cooperation model between Colossus City and Ritawen is not a long-term solution after all. Let’s not talk about the processing fees. The transportation costs alone are not low."
Shanoba couldn't help lowering her voice and said, "I was wondering about one thing before. As a dwarven city, Colossus City has such a large iron ore output, how could it not have its own automated iron-making production line?
Master Jiharin reminded me. After he left, I selected some people to conduct a blanket search and inspection of the City of the Colossus. I found that some murals not only mentioned automated iron-making production lines, but even a semi-automated equipment smelting production line.
But there is no sign of them in the existing passages of Colossus City.
The only thing that could not be checked was the dark area mentioned by Master Jihalin, which also leads directly to the geothermal energy of the earth.
I have reason to suspect that the automated iron-making production line and the semi-automated equipment smelting production line are both there.
Losing them was the real reason for the decline of the dwarves in Colossus City. "
"Your speculation is very reasonable." Gavin stood up and walked around a few times excitedly. "Originally, I was quite hesitant about opening the seal, but now it is inevitable."
An artifact with unknown capabilities was not worth Gavin's risk of antagonizing the undead stone giant, so he could take a roundabout route.
But an automated dwarf iron-making production line right under the iron mine was enough to make him take risks, let alone a semi-automated equipment production line.
"The risk of this matter is not small." Shanobah reminded, "According to the kobold surveys, the iron ore veins in Colossus City are very deep, nearly a thousand meters underground, which means that the dwarf enemies can dig from below. Mine, once they occupy those dwarf automated production lines, they will not give them away, we must be prepared for war."
"This is natural." Gavin nodded clearly, "It is worthwhile to fight a group of undead for a dwarf automated production line. I have already sent people to collect information about them.
In this matter, we still have a very strong advantage.
One is calculated mentally and unintentionally. We quickly know who the enemy is, but the enemy does not know who we are.
Second, we have flutter bombs. As long as we detect the situation below, we can blast the passage and directly block the underground connection between the two parties. If they want to reopen the passage, it cannot be done in a day and a half. "
Whatever Gavin does now, he always puts information first.
He would never rashly organize an adventure team to escort Jihalin deep into the Troll Mountains to repair the Heart of the Mountains.
That would be stupid and inefficient.
The most correct strategy is to send people who are familiar with the environment of the Underdark region to go through the long dark tunnels, pinpoint the location of the earth veins, use the teleportation technique, and then run away after repairing the Heart of the Mountains.
As for the candidates, there is no one more suitable for this task than the drow. The first members of the Shadow Wings were the drow. After knowing the repair method of the Heart of the Mountains, Gavin asked Daphne to recruit five extraordinary Shadow Wing drows. The elves formed an elite team and headed to the Giant's Run Mountains to find the entrance to the Underdark.
Now it's just a matter of making necessary adjustments to plans and tactics due to changes in underground values.
"The lord has thought it through. We will wait for the intelligence feedback to come back with the specific combat plan." Shanoba no longer dwelled on this topic. "We need a batch of catapults and ballistae as a supplementary defense method for Colossus City. .”
"It's simple. I'll let Mys Noel do the customization and use the shadow to drag it to Ivanso for transportation. You just need to give me a quantity." Gavin said in Mys Noel The amount of dark wood harvested is quite large, and it can last for a while.
"A thousand catapults and two thousand ballistae." The lion of Xanoba opened his mouth.
Gavin, who had just made his vow, was choked up. He stared at her and asked, "Why do you need so much city defense equipment? Are there any forces nearby that can pose a threat to you?"
"Yes!" Shanobah said solemnly, "There is the lair of an ancient red dragon in the Troll Mountains. Once he wakes up from his dragon sleep, he will definitely not let go of the City of Colossus."
"..."
Gavin didn't know how to answer Shanobah for a while. After a while, he said helplessly: "Although these city defense equipment can pose a certain degree of threat to an ancient red dragon, the main factor is the operator. No matter how many you have, , your operator will kneel down when he sees someone, how can you fight with them?
When Feiyan Belegos really wakes up one day, don't think about any confrontation. It is wisest to prepare a heavy gift as soon as possible and pay tribute to him.
Let's save the Colossus City first, and then we can take care of the rest slowly. It won't be shameful to pay tribute to a famous ancient red dragon. "
"..." Shanoba was stunned for a moment, then quickly apologized, "I was mistaken. Well, then, the number will be halved, five hundred catapults, and one thousand large crossbows."
"There are still too many. One hundred catapults and two hundred large-scale crossbows are enough for you to frighten most enemies. As long as you can ensure that there are no problems within your own body and are captured by the enemy with a single charge, Blood Gorge City's elite heavy cavalry will be Will instantly appear behind the enemy.
The total distance between Blood Gorge City and Colossus City is only 220 kilometers, and the teleportation distance of the super-giant road statue is 256 kilometers.
When I have enough road power and upgrade the road statues in your Colossus City to super giants, the safety factor of both your cities will be further improved. "After Gavin finished the calculation, he was shocked.
When it is only 256 kilometers, it doesn’t feel very big, but if you add the distance of each section of the Destiny Road, it is a bit amazing.
"It's really true. This super-giant road statue and the giant one are not the same thing at all. It would be great if all the road statues could be replaced by super-giant ones. No, it would be best if the entire Conqueror statue could be replaced. The road is paved." Shanoba was also shocked, she had never calculated this detailed account before.
"The road power consumed is not at the same level. Although it is only four times the difference, if you want to accumulate the next super giant, I am afraid it will not be achieved in a short time. The recent road power is all accumulated in the past. "Gavin doesn't want to do this, I'm afraid it's not that easy to do.
"I know, I'm just sighing. In this case, let's do what the lord said first. There will be no problem on my side for the time being." After confirming that a strong reinforcement force can appear in his city at any time, Shano Ba is no longer so obsessed with city defense weapons.
In fact, she also knew that the intimidation effect of placing so many city defense weapons in Colossus City was far greater than its actual use.
"Lord Karl, please tell me about your vision for the City of Faith. How many people do you need to leave for you? How do you plan to run this place in the future?" Gavin set his sights on the tortured middle-aged man.
Karl, the amputee, looks very old, with more white hair and less black hair. The ravines on his face can trap earthworms. He has a swarthy face and wears a pair of ghost eyebands. Ten years of blindness has caused damage to his visual nerves. Severe injuries, even if cured with regeneration, still leave the sequelae of being sensitive to light.
This kind of eye towel that can see ghost shadows plays a certain protective role.
The same is true for hair and wrinkles. Regeneration only repairs the injured parts of the body and cannot do anything about the traces left by nature. Even magic is not omnipotent. Time is the most powerless thing it can do.
This appearance is absolutely difficult to associate with his actual age. He is just over forty and in his prime.
"Before that, I have a small request."
"What request?"
"I ask that my shadow be transformed into a shadow."
"Have you thought about it?"
"I've thought about it."
"Okay, I agree." The conversation between the two was concise and to the point.
Gavin is a smart man, and he will understand what is going on as soon as the other person opens his mouth.
It is nothing more than using this as a certificate of surrender to reassure him, so that he can better integrate into the system of the conqueror's army and gain more trust and support from him.
As for the experience lost in this process, at a quasi-legendary level like Karl, how could Gavin just use the resurrection technique on him? He would definitely use a complete resurrection technique that does not damage the essence of the soul.
