Chapter 70 Final preparation and strategy

"Fine!"

Li Qing understood that maybe Chu Zaizhong did think about wiping out the fish-man tribe before, but as time went by, a large number of apprentices stayed in his castle because of the fish-man tribe, which brought him a lot of popularity and a steady stream of

He didn't think about the income anymore.

Anyway, there is nothing he can do about this big fish-men tribe, and there is nothing the big fish-men tribe can do about him.

In terms of strength, the large murloc tribe would definitely scorn him, but murlocs are not good at attacking cities. There is no precedent of murlocs attacking cities in any travel notes.

"Fine!"

This plan can only be given up, so there is only one option.

Through the God's Domain Network, he contacted several teams of stalker heroes who specialized in selling information, and spent a total of 200,000 to purchase information on the Snake City closest to him and two nearby Snake Towns.

.

By comparing the intelligence of the two teams, Li Qing had a little understanding of the situation in this snake city and the two nearby towns.

This snake city is located at the junction of two rivers. It is surrounded by water on both sides and it is difficult to launch an attack. There are only two sides that can be attacked, making it difficult to attack.

The total population of this snake city is about 100,000, but there are two towns and a large number of villages nearby, with a total population of about 140,000.

In fact, there were five towns that belonged to this city before, with a total population of more than 200,000. However, one was destroyed by Li Qing with a meteorite, and the other two that were far away were attacked by other war lord apprentices, leaving two remaining.

Too close and still there.

The city's garrison is divided into three parts. One part is the main force of about 2,000 snake people, including the elite directly under the great nobles of the snake people.

The second part consists of the various vassal tribes, numbering about five to six thousand, and the slave troops who serve as cannon fodder in peacetime and in battles also number about five or six thousand.

The third part is the mage tower system in the center of the city, including at least one sixth-level snake-man archmage, a dozen mages between the third and fifth rings, dozens of apprentices, and a large number of mage's servant guards, as well as constructed puppets.

, the total number is about one thousand.

To be honest, if they hadn't accidentally picked up a bargain, under normal circumstances, the six mentors and all the apprentices would not be able to capture a snake city from the front.

The difference in strength is too big. These troops alone can compete with them head-on, let alone such a powerful mage group.

If you want to siege a city, you still need to face a mage tower, which is too powerful.

Looking at the information in front of him, Li Qing thought hard.

He would definitely not be able to defeat the city in a frontal siege, even if he loaded up and used all the thousand imperial troop promotion cards on hand to form a force of more than 1,300, even if they were all equipped with super defensive pseudo-dragon skins.

The biggest problem is the mage tower and the extraordinary archmage inside.

Only if this point is solved, the rest will be easier.

but

Li Qing thought hard and even informed several of his subordinates, including several heroes and professional subordinates, about the plan, and brainstormed to see if he could come up with a good method by pooling everyone's wisdom.

While thinking, Li Qing was not idle at the same time. He contacted his mentor again and spent a lot of money to purchase a group of people.

Now that the God's Domain has expanded, two levels of the God's Domain Farm have been unlocked. With enough space, land, and enough food to support a larger population, it is natural to continue to expand.

He previously sold 30 points of source material plus his existing funds for a total of 30.52 million, of which 20 million was used to buy kobold monster cards, and the remaining 1.25 million was spent to buy 12,500 kobold corpses. Now he still has 9.27 million left.

The white-named indigenous humans cost 1,000 yuan each, and Li Qing spent 5 million directly to purchase a full 5,000 human species, two-thirds of which were male and the remaining female.

As a result, the total number of white and gray humans in his divine domain will be as high as 6800+, and the number of dwarves will still be 250, and the scale will suddenly expand.

But I can still afford it.

Even counting humans, horses, and ogres, the total population is 8,000. Each person consumes 3 kilograms of food per day, which is 24,000 kilograms a day, which is 8.76 million kilograms of food a year.

The annual grain output of Shenyu Ranch alone is as high as 60 million kilograms.

This means that the first floor of the God’s Domain alone can supply a maximum population of 54,000+ people. Excluding one vegetable grown on the third floor, plus the God’s Domain Ranch, it means that a fully unlocked God’s Domain farm and pasture can supply a maximum population of over 100,000 people.

food.

And this refers to the state of complete supply. If the supply is reduced, it can support 200,000 without any problem.

After all, normal people cannot eat three kilograms of rice and vegetables and about one kilogram of meat a day.

When the population was in place, Li Qing did not hesitate to use the promotion cards for all the units on hand. A total of 500 imperial infantry, 500 imperial archers, and 100 imperial cavalry were all loaded and used, creating 1,100 new soldiers.

Then use the space in your palm to transform a large amount of stored materials, and combine them into a set of standard super-thick leather suits according to the defense standards of pseudo-dragon skin.

Now he couldn't be as casual as before, so Li Qing put together a complete set of standard suits based on the size and style of infantry equipment, including full-body leather armor, leather helmet, leather belt, leather boots, and leather gloves.

Yes, it’s the new standard leather suit, not fake dragon skin.

The initial pseudo-dragon leather armor was indeed a complete imitation of dragon skin fiber, but later Li Qing discovered that there was a big problem with this operation, that is, it was too high-profile.

Although it is pseudo-dragon skin armor, not real dragon skin, it is no different from real dragon skin in terms of appearance and defense. If others find out, how can you explain where you got so much dragon skin?

So he changed his mind and used pseudo-dragon skin as a standard to re-adjust the molecular arrangement and structure of dragon skin fibers, constantly trying to combine a synthetic cortex that was very different from dragon skin but had the same powerful defense.

To put it bluntly, dragon skin is also composed of the dragon's unique fleshy fibers.

However, the essence of the fibers is the same, and they are all composed of different structures and arrangements. However, the arrangement and composition of dragon skin are different from ordinary animal skins.

The space in Li Qing's palm can decompose any material into its most minute state, and then rearrange the fiber arrangement and composition according to his own wishes, thereby combining different types of synthetic leather.

Then he selected excellent synthetic leather as the material for making new leather armor.

The toughness and strength of the cortex are closely related to the tightness of the fibers. The more closely the fibers are arranged, the more fiber material needs to be consumed. For example, the physical defense of Li Qing's synthetic leather armor is comparable to that of dragon leather armor.

A lot of materials are needed.

Each set of standard super strong synthetic leather armor needs to consume a full 5 cubic meters of fiber material.

The so-called fiber material is his collective name for wood, clothing, various plant and animal cortical fibers, etc.

The appearance and material of the newly synthesized super-strong leather armor are no different from ordinary animal skins, but its defensive power is comparable to that of pseudo-dragon leather armor, and it also has no magic defense power.

But what does it matter?

A new recruit can be equipped with leather armor with physical defense comparable to dragon skin, what else can you ask for?

In addition to defense, offense also did not fall behind. Li Qing also updated the weapons for each soldier.

First of all, all the one-handed swords equipped have been updated. The original iron swords have been replaced with iron swords made of high-carbon steel. The swords are not only stronger but also sharper.

To give an intuitive analogy, the original one-star iron sword was updated to a sharp steel sword with at least three stars.

In addition, the original recruit shield was made of several wooden boards, so it was not very durable and could not withstand heavy blows.

After the update, the shield is made of high-density wood. There are three additional layers of material inside the thick wooden shield, making a total of five layers.

The outermost layer is made of high-density wood, the second layer is buried with a layer of fine steel mesh, the third layer is sandwiched with a layer of pseudo-dragon skin, the fourth layer is another layer of fine steel mesh, and the innermost layer is also made of pseudo-dragon skin.

You won't feel any discomfort on your body.

And it is said to be a comprehensive five-story building, but in fact each floor is buffered by high-density wood, and the actual number of floors is even more.

On the surface, it looks like just an ordinary drop-shaped wooden shield. In fact, the defense of this thing is at least four or five stars, and its defense power is very strong.

To be honest, if this set is made purely by hand, the cost will definitely exceed the cost of the fourth-level arms.

It is also for your own use. You can use the ultra-low-cost synthesis in the palm of your hand. If you just find a craftsman to make it, the efficiency will be pitifully low.

This is also the main reason why weapons are so poor at low levels of arms. The cost is too high to be worth it.

The cost of an imperial infantry promotion card with an upper limit of level 4 is only 2,000 yuan. The main cost of this price lies in the price of the weapons and equipment equipped after promotion.

After the recruits reach the first level, the weapons are upgraded to better ones, and the price of the upgrade naturally increases, requiring a full 4,000 yuan.

For example, when the first-level imperial infantry is upgraded to the second-level imperial senior infantry, in addition to the strengthening of combat skills, the weapons and equipment are also strengthened. For example, thick leather armor is replaced by chain armor. The price of all upgrades is 10,000 yuan each.

When the second level is upgraded to the third level, combat skill experience and full-body scale armor are more expensive, and the money required for the upgrade is 50,000 each.

As for the Tier 4 imperial heavy infantry equipped with plate armor and tower shields, the upgrade requirements are very exaggerated, 200,000 each. If you don't have the money, you can't afford to upgrade even if you have enough experience.

It is worth mentioning that Li Qing’s promotion using a helicopter card does not cost extra.

Because the promotion card contains things that he doesn't know yet, which can replace all the needs for promotion along the way.

In addition, there are two types of promotions for various monster cards, one is required and the other is not required.

Among them, the trophy wild monsters can be promoted all the way without paying any price.

If it is a monster unit system similar to the human empire system, controlled by a certain god or other great beings in the chaotic void sea, then a price needs to be paid.

The monster subordinates in Li Qing's hands are all trophies, and there is no need to pay for promotion.

If all the 1,300-strong army were promoted to the fourth level, the total cost would be as much as 3.4 billion, which is outrageous.

Fortunately, there is no need for a salary, otherwise it would be even more difficult.

In addition, although Li Qing can equip himself with better weapons and equipment so that the first-level infantry has combat effectiveness comparable to second-level or even third-level arms, it does not mean that he does not have to pay promotion fees.

You have to pay the same amount, and you can’t miss a penny.

Even if the equipment after promotion will be taken off immediately and replaced by your own, the money cannot be less.
