Chapter 148: Turnaround
The Military Affairs Office's proposal to expand the army was rejected and the meeting was in a dilemma.
Ouyang Shuo broke the deadlock and said, "Since the army is limited, we can only start from other aspects. No matter what, we are the defender of the city and have a advantage in the geographical advantage. The most important thing at the moment is to strengthen the preparation of the defender of the city, and we must not lose the same turbulent oil, rolling wood, and huge rocks."
Ouyang Shuo turned to look at Tian Wenjing and said, "The Material Reserve Bureau should contact the quarry and logging yard, so that they can put down their work in the past two days, concentrate on preparing a batch of rolling wood and huge rocks, and transport it to the city wall."
Tian Wenjing nodded and expressed his understanding. In fact, when the Shanhai Town Wall was completed, the Material Reserve Bureau had already established a special warehouse near the city wall to store rolling wood and huge stones.
Shi Wansui heard the adults mention the hot turbulent oil and asked, "Do you want to arrange the hot turbulent oil array again?"
During the monster siege three months ago, it was the fierce turbulent oil array arranged with fierce turbulent oil that played a final role. Therefore, Shi Wansui was so impressed.
Ouyang Shuo shook his head and said, "The ignition oil array is too rigid and is OK to deal with clumsy beasts. If you want to deal with cunning bandits, it will not work at all. The ignition oil array is too conspicuous and cannot be deceived at all. We will not even have the chance to ignite the bandits. Even if the blind cat encounters a dead mouse and hides it, once the ignition oil array is ignited, the bandits can retreat calmly. After the ignition oil is burned out, they will attack again. They are not those stubborn beasts."
"Well, what do you mean by sir?" Shi Wansui asked in confusion.
Ouyang Shuo didn't keep it a secret and said with a smile: "In order to use hot turbulent oil, in addition to setting up the hot turbulent oil array, there is a more flexible way, that is, the hot turbulent oil cabinet."
"Hard-temperature oil cabinet?"
"Not bad." Ouyang Shuo explained to everyone the principle and function of the hot oil cabinet.
The hot-tempered oil cabinet is the earliest flame-breathing device in ancient China. It uses hot-tempered oil as fuel and uses cooked copper as the cabinet. It has 4 feet underneath and 4 copper tubes on the top. The pipe is placed horizontally on the pipe, which is connected to the oil cabinet. Each time it is filled with about 1.5 kilograms of oil. A "fire building" is installed at the front of the pump, which contains gunpowder.
During the launch, use a red-burning cone to ignite the gunpowder in the "Fire Tower", then pull the pump hard and compress the air into the oil cabinet, so that when the fire hole is sprayed through the "Fire Tower", it will ignite when it encounters heat and becomes a flame to burn the enemy and burn combat equipment.
In addition, there is also a small flamethrower used for city defense and water warfare. A copper gourd is used instead of oil cabinets for easy carrying and moving.
Fan Zhongyan, who was born in the Northern Song Dynasty, had a deep understanding of the hot oil cabinet and said worriedly: "This idea of the adults looks good. However, one is probably too late in time, and two is that we do not have gunpowder to attract fire, so it is probably not feasible."
Ouyang Shuo nodded in praise and said, "What the sir said makes sense. I don't expect to make many units. After the meeting, I will go to the market to purchase the "Technical Manual for Manufacturing of Turbulence Cabinets" and let the weapon workshop work overnight. It should be possible to create two units before the bandits attack. This type of killer weapon is mainly used to deal with bandits' siege equipment, and two units are enough. As for the problem of gunpowder, I think whether it is Master Ge from Qingyang Temple or Magnus from the alchemy workshop, there are ways to solve it. All we need is a little urging medicine, and the dosage is very small, and they must have inventory."
Fan Zhongyan suddenly realized and said with a smile: "Sir, I admire you."
To solve the problem of defending the city, Ouyang Shuo began to discuss the issue of logistics support with everyone.
This time, the bandits are targeting the base camp. The main direction of the bandits will be the west and north. Especially after a moat is built on the north, Ouyang Shuo predicts that the main direction of the bandits will be the west. There are many settlements on the west side of Shanhai Town. Before the war comes, all the residents of the settlements must be moved back to the city to live temporarily to ensure their lives.
Ouyang Shuo handed over this major project to the Administrative Office.
In addition to immigration, the establishment of a civilian team and a medical team is also urgent. Compared with this monster siege, the last monster siege was simply a slight witch. The civilian team and medical team must be formed in advance, conduct appropriate training, and also go to the city wall to conduct adaptive training, and cannot be careless.
Ouyang Shuo handed over this major project to the Material Reserves Administration.
After the arrangement was made, Ouyang Shuo announced the dismissal of the meeting. As for the specific tactical arrangements, they are not suitable for discussion at the military and political meeting, and special military meetings are required.
After the meeting, Ouyang Shuo called Yingyou to his office and asked her to contact Beihai Town. He sold the sea salt for the first half of May in advance and embezzled a sum of funds for the transfer of soldiers.
After opening the alliance channel, the 4,000 gold coins delivered by Langshan Mine last time were only 140 gold coins left.
Fortunately, since the establishment of the Audit Department, the sea salt from Beimu Salt Field no longer needs to be transported to the base camp for sale. It can be sold directly through the market in Beihai Town under the supervision of the Audit Department. At the latest tomorrow afternoon, the base camp will receive funds from Beimu Salt Field.
After seeing Yingyou off, while there was still some time, Ouyang Shuo went to the high-end market and spent 20 gold coins to buy a "Technical Manual for Manufacturing of Turbulent Oil Cabinets".
Then spend another 20 gold coins to purchase a batch of hot turmeric oil.
It was already six o'clock in the evening when he returned to the lord's mansion. Ouyang Shuo handed over the "Technical Manual for Manufacturing of Turbulence Cabinets" to the secretary Bai Nanpu, and asked him to send it to the weapon workshop overnight. He ordered the weapon workshop manager Xu Kun to study it overnight and strive to start manufacturing tomorrow.
After finishing the explanation, Ouyang Shuo returned to the backyard and went offline to rest.
...
After the launch the next day, Ouyang Shuo was in a state of uneasiness.
Because today is the time to accept the system test in Bangalore, India. The global lord players are silently paying attention to the world announcement.
At this time, the most nervous one was not Ouyang Shuo, but Jack Dawson from the United States. His Free Town will be tested by the system tomorrow. Once Bangalore Town successfully advances, Jack Dawson will be in vain.
Ouyang Shuo endured his inner anxiety and was still sitting in the lord's mansion with a calm face on the surface.
The war machine in Shanhai Town has already started to operate with all its strength.
Countless rolling wood and huge rocks were transported from logging fields and quarries outside the city to the city through wooden oxes and horses. Then, with the help of the civilian team, they were transported one by one to the city wall.
The two infantry battalions in the west of the city have left the camp and officially entered the city. Under the guidance of the city defense camp, they have begun to be familiar with the various defense facilities of the city wall. As for the cavalry battalions and the Lushui Town City Defense Battalions, they have to wait until tomorrow to reduce the defense risks of the affiliated territories as much as possible.
The five Mengchong Dou ships of the First Battalion of the North Sea Fleet have already entered the canyon and temporarily docked at the dock of Shanhai Town. The War Preparation Department took advantage of this time to transport bundles of arrows to the warship.
Similarly, bundles of arrows were transported to the city walls.
Two three-bow and eight-ox bed crossbows have been installed on both sides of the West City Tower, and four ordinary bed crossbows are installed on both sides of the North City Tower. The soldiers of Shenji Camp, led by Wang Yuanfeng, began to correct and shoot each bed crossbow one by one.
Shanhai Town has issued martial law orders, and all personnel entering and leaving the city gate must undergo strict inspections to prevent bandits from infiltration ahead of schedule. Tomorrow, after all the residents of the settlements move to the city, a curfew will be fully implemented, and the entire city is only allowed to enter but not exit.
Under the leadership of Director Li Tie, the Public Security Department strengthened patrol efforts in the city and strictly investigated all sluts.
Until five o'clock in the afternoon, no system announcement came. Ouyang Shuo could no longer bear such a tense atmosphere. After a hurried explanation, he went offline early.
After going offline, Ouyang Shuo did not walk out of the room, but directly turned on the light brain and logged into the game forum.
Sure enough, the forums in India were very lively, and all kinds of gossip news were flying all over the sky.
"The town of Bangalore is about to succeed, and the world's number one county is waving to Diwara!!!"
"Bangaluru Town failed to defend and completely withdrew from the competition for the world's number one county!!!"
"The bandits are like tides, Divara admitted that she was not prepared!!!"
"The last wave is coming, whether Bangalore Town can defend successfully will be determined soon!!!"
"The bandits were too cunning and actually used authentic tactics to successfully break through the defense line of Bangalore Town!!!"
The news on the forum is contradictory, and I don’t know which one is true or which one is false. It seems that it is impossible to know the truth of the matter until the last moment.
At this time, Ouyang Shuo calmed down. He no longer paid attention to these gossip news, but began to practice the "Huangdi Neijing" in the room.
After two days of practice, there were eight golden internal force in Ouyang Shuo's dantian. After it was launched yesterday, Ouyang Shuo had confirmed that a trace of golden internal force, in the game, represents a little internal force value.
He can practice once a day now, and each time he runs four cycles of cycles, generating four golden internal energy. In other words, under normal circumstances, it takes him twenty-five days to reach the full value of the first level of 100 internal energy. The difficulty of practicing the imperial level martial arts is generally seen, you must know that this is only the first level.
Two hours later, Ouyang Shuo finished his work.
At this time, whether Bangalore Town is successful or not, there should be definite news.
Ouyang Shuo logged into the forum again, and the headlines of the Indian section's homepage was a huge bloody title: Bangalore Town failed, and Divala dreamed of being the best in the world.
Chapter completed!
