The scale of the cave defense line has expanded slightly, but further away, more soldiers have come out and are building the foundation!
A foundation between the cave defense line and the coal mine base, which is the second line of defense on the cave defense line!
The first line of defense has now taken shape, with a total length of about 600 meters. It presents an arc that surrounds the cave in the middle.
The area between the defense line and the cave is the hunting area for the soldiers. As long as they use arrows, they can kill all the eyeless monsters that come out of the cave.
As the level of the eyeless monsters drilled out of the cave gradually increased, their size also increased. The height of the first line of defense was no longer able to form an absolute geographical barrier.
It is possible to continue to increase the height, but the problem is that even if it is increased, the number of soldiers who can garrison on it is limited due to the length of the defense line.
Also, with the current construction level of the tribe, it is still dangerous if the height of the stone city wall increases, but there is no earthquake resistance level to refer to. The warriors of the tribe may not consider earthquake resistance. After all, for them , living on the move all year round, living in snow caves and wooden houses, you are not afraid of earthquakes at all!
As long as it is not the kind of earthquake that shakes mountains and seas, it is not a threat to small tribes.
But for taller buildings, it's different. If you don't take this unstable factor into account, then when the earthquake comes, the damage caused to the tribe will be greater than any beast tide or even the attack of lord-level monsters. If there are too many, it will be a disaster level.
Therefore, after taking this factor into consideration, the height of the cave defense line and even the central tribe's stone city wall has a certain limit.
Based on this principle, the best defensive method is to establish more buffer zones.
This method is somewhat like putting eggs. You cannot put all the eggs on one plate, otherwise, you will easily lose everything.
The newly built second cave defense line, estimated to be about three kilometers in length, will separate the coal mine base and then directly wrap the first cave defense line.
The middle area of these two lines of defense is also planned. Ye Qiong's plan is to put the blacksmith shop here. In this case, the development potential of the blacksmith shop will not be restricted. After it develops to the arsenal level, it will produce Weapons can be stored directly in the second cave defense line.
The central tribe is short of weapons and can be transported directly there. The distance in the middle is very close. After the second cave defense line is established, the potential threat from the eyeless monsters in the cave will be much smaller.
The second line of cave defense is currently being built by the first-line and second-line soldiers led by Ronling. The central tribe has not yet mobilized here.
There is no need to rush this matter. The first line of cave defense can still last for a long time. The plan for this winter is to lay the foundation of the second line of cave defense. After next spring, the construction can be started with full power.
After arriving at the cave defense line, Ronling immediately greeted him. He had already received the news that Ye Qiong had returned to the tribe, but a wave of eyeless monsters happened to emerge in the past two days, so he did not go back.
"Whoosh...roar! Whoosh..."
On the stone city wall, the sound of arrows piercing the air and the roar of the eyeless monsters converged together, and the battle seemed quite fierce.
Ye Qiong got off the back of the Mustang King and asked about the current situation in Ronngling.
The level of eyeless monsters emerging from the cave is still at level four. There are no new levels of eyeless monsters emerging. However, the number has increased a lot, and the frequency has also increased a lot. On the cave defense line, now The number of eyeless monsters killed every month has reached more than 500!
Most of the meat produced was directly made into grease lamps. It is worth mentioning that the skin of the eyeless monster is very tough. After it is naturally dried, it can be stored as an elastic material.
It has a bit of a plastic texture...
If you need to make tires or other things that are more wear-resistant in the future, you can give it a try.
The gel inside the skin is very rich.
If you can make things like rubber bands, it will be of great use. First, you can get some slingshots for the children of the tribe to play with and train their shooting accuracy.
Ye Qiong stayed at the cave defense line for about two hours. During this period, he came to the wall of the defense line to take a look. There were already a lot of corpses of eyeless monsters below. There have been eyeless monsters coming out of the cave in the past two days. When they emerged from inside, the soldiers were only responsible for killing them for the time being, and had no time to clean up the corpses below.
After leaving the cave defense line, Ye Qiong rode the Mustang King for a while in the foundation area of the second line of defense.
There are about thirty soldiers in charge of building the base here. If we don't have to rush the construction period, they can just dig out the foundation in the next half of winter, which is about nine months.
If there is a shortage of combat power on the cave defense line, the soldiers can go over to provide support. When there is nothing going on there, Rongling will arrange fifty additional soldiers to come over and help.
If eighty warriors work together, the work efficiency will be much higher. There is also a team of about fifty people in the central tribe, who will be responsible for transporting stones here once a day in fine weather.
Now, although the population base of the tribe is gradually increasing, Ye Qiong can no longer distinguish the faces of many tribesmen. Except for the warriors and tribesmen of the original tribe, the tribes that came later, as they have been in the central tribe, in Ye Qiong The impression left in my mind is also different.
This kind of thing is something that cannot be helped. As the population base of the tribe increases, certain rules and regulations must be established. It will not work if it is purely based on emotions. Later, each tribe also had its own customs and behaviors. habits, some even contradictory.
To fully integrate these people into a tribe, they must go through the baptism of time and continuous marriage with each other.
Blood is thicker than water. Only when the next generation of tribes are bound to each other can they become a complete and harmonious tribe.
In fact, it feels a bit like the marriage of two families. Without the culmination of the third generation, it is just two families after all. It is broken off. But with the next generation, it is completely different. The core of the two families The mission is directly unified, which is to cultivate the next generation...
As long as the next generation is still alive in the world, this bond will never be broken.
At present, although this matter has not been made public, Ye Tianlong has led Yang Dingtian and others to do this, and the birth rate of tribal newborns is very impressive.
Now, taking advantage of the tribe's development trend and abundant supplies and food, having more children is the way to go.
However, the resulting ethical issues were also quietly increasing. When some elders who paid attention to this matter gathered together, they began to discuss the issues of faith that must be faced due to ethics.
Religion began to brew quietly among the tribes...
