Standing in front of the pool, Ye Qiong took out a small bottle from his waist, pinched the mouth of the bottle, and gently scooped it into the pool inside.
After filling more than half of the bottle with the light green liquid, he picked it up, capped the cork, took out a broken piece and wiped the mouth of the bottle, and then stuffed it back into his waist.
With such a large pool of liquid, the first thing Ye Qiong thought of was the soaking water used for forging. In nature, compounds of divalent iron ions are all light green liquids, such as ferrous chloride. When dissolved in water, It's this light green color.
It just has nothing to do with the viscosity. The liquid in this pool is so viscous and rich in minerals, and it also gives people an organic feel.
It's the lumpy, sticky feeling that forms after the temperature of chicken soup and fish soup is lowered.
Besides iron, there is another possibility, which is...
copper!
However, Ye Qiong didn't find any copperware in the space where weapons were stored outside, so he didn't think about it at all.
The composition of these liquids still needs to be analyzed by going back and doing experiments. It is impossible to tell with the naked eye, especially under the light of a torch.
After putting the bottle away, Ye Qiong continued to take Qing Zhi, Tang Li and the others around in the space of about 600 square meters.
Ye Qiong deliberately walked around the wall, hoping to see some more words and paintings on the wall.
It's a pity that there is nothing else in this area except the tungsten ore and green pools. It is quite clean.
It seems that its function is to be a warehouse for storing tungsten ore. The pool is most likely some waste water. Ye Qiong does not have high hopes.
After returning to the hole that allowed one person to enter and exit, Ye Qiong got out directly...
…
That night, Ye Qiong went down to the base under the waterfall.
In the wooden house living area, there is a small laboratory of Ye Qiong. The front was expanded by the soldiers. After adding a door, the two wooden houses were linked together, and now it became a large wooden house with one bedroom and one living room.
The small bed where Ye Qiong usually slept in the laboratory was moved directly to the room inside. The original small room officially became an independent laboratory, and the space was suddenly much larger.
Although this seemingly very simple laboratory is incomparable to some junior high school laboratories in Ye Qiong's impression, this is also the current limit of the tribe. All the things Ye Qiong discovered at the waterfall base and wooden house base Everything that can be investigated in depth is concentrated here.
Surrounding the wooden house are several vacant living areas, which are temporarily used to store coal and some living supplies for the development behind the laboratory.
Continuing towards the waterfall, there is the blacksmith shop at the base of the wooden house, which is where Kuang Beili brought his apprentices to make giant crossbows and giant arrows.
Now the blacksmith shop is still in operation, and Kuang Beili has left five apprentices here, who are responsible for the repair of weapons for the soldiers of Waterfall Base and Log House Base, as well as the production of giant crossbows and giant arrows.
The number of giant crossbows in the wooden house base is slowly increasing. As the arrow tower gradually becomes rounder, more and more giant crossbows are carried on the arrow tower.
While the arrow tower was being expanded, Ye Qiong deliberately left some vacant areas for the soldiers, two square meters in size...
These vacant areas are mainly reserved for two weapons.
One is a catapult, and the other is a cannon.
Catapults are actually not very effective in defending against beasts and crazy crowds. The physical flexibility of Warcraft is incomparable to humans, so they can easily dodge the large stones thrown by normal-power catapults. If a small stone hits them, it will just scratch an itch for those monsters with a body size of more than two meters.
As for the crowd of madmen, there are dozens of madmen grouped together. There is no density in the first place, and the catapult is really difficult to hit.
Therefore, Ye Qiong used to focus on upgrading the giant crossbow and was not very interested in the catapult.
The giant crossbow has a straight-line firing range, and its penetrating power is very powerful. It can concentrate its power on one point. Whether it is facing a beast tide or a mad crowd, its defensive ability is very strong.
In ancient battlefields, the power of catapults was still very amazing. On battlefields with a density of thousands or even tens of thousands of people, the lethality of catapults was very considerable, especially in places such as canyons.
In Ye Qiong's memory, during the Cold Weapon Age, there was a place that had never been conquered in history, and that was Jianmen Pass. When a catapult was put on the tower, no matter how many people came, it was all in vain...
Judging from the current scale of the battle between the Ye Qiong tribe and the Na Ning tribe after joining forces with the Red Flame Leopard tribe, the catapult can already play its role.
Behind the wooden house base, Ye Qiong asked the soldiers to open up a new area, a group of arc arrow towers, and the foundation was being excavated and laid. Above it was the arrow tower designed by Ye Qiong to house the catapult.
After it is fully constructed, if the Red Flame Leopard wants to knock down the wooden house base, the troops it needs to dispatch must be many times the defensive strength of the wooden house base.
This row of arc-shaped arrow towers, in addition to resisting the attack of the Red Flame Leopard, also has another function.
That is……
Sea beast!
After returning to the wooden house base from the embankment base, Ye Qiong immediately asked the soldiers to expand the rear of the wooden house base!
If one day, the Na Ning tribe's dam base is lost, the water channel will become a channel for those sea beasts to come to the Dinglong Mountains.
Ye Qiong is not sure yet whether it is the only passage, but for the waterfall base and the central tribe, this is like Jianmen Pass. It is a place that the tribe must defend and use a small number of troops to exert huge combat effectiveness. place.
Regarding the requirements for the wooden house base, Ye Qiong's current plan is to be able to defend against the tide of sea beasts of the same scale as the last time the iron pot bomb exploded, just like the dike base.
Also upgraded at the same time as the wooden house base is the giant sword base. Originally, Ye Qiong's plan for the giant sword base was to be able to defend against attacks by thousands of people from the Red Flame Leopard tribe, but now the requirements are different.
It was directly upgraded by an order of magnitude, which was why Ye Qiong was studying grenades at the Great Sword Base, making the Great Sword Base a place for research on cutting-edge weapons for the tribe.
While preventing sea beasts, it can also act as a deterrent to the Na Ning tribe.
In the military, we must think of the worst-case scenario and use this as a starting point to deploy weapons.
The worst plan Ye Qiong can think of right now, apart from lord-level monsters and alien beasts, is threats from three parties.
The first one is naturally the Red Flame Leopard tribe. This tribe is now in a fight to the death. There is no possibility of reconciliation, only war!
The second one is the sea beasts. After seeing the size of those sea beasts, Ye Qiong must make defensive arrangements in advance. He can support the Na Ning tribe, but he cannot fully count on or even rely on the Na Ning tribe.
The third one is the Na Ning tribe...
The two tribes are still in the honeymoon period, but as time goes by, it remains to be seen how they will develop in the future.
As for the scattered magical beasts and madmen who rarely appear in the Dinglong Mountains, there is no need to worry too much.
The combined forces of the three parties are Ye Qiong's current defensive bottom line!
