The Lord of the Oasis

Chapter 209: Utility of civil buildings

Views:

Following Kant's order, the system instantly popped up a dialog box.

[Ding... system prompt]

[This construction requires a total of 15,570 dinars and a total of 100 days.]

[Yes/No choose to build?]

[Remarks: Only 17380 dinars are left after construction, please pay attention.]

The system gave a warning-like prompt.

The remaining is less than 20,000 dinars, which is already unable to maintain a balance of payments, or Kant has never had income at all, and is often spent. After a week of military spending, the Dinar will continue to run out of fuel.

There is no reason for the system not to prompt.

But Kant did not hesitate at all: "Build!"

This is his order.

The system chose to obey, and the data stream gushed out in an instant, enveloping the castle building below.

At the same time, Kant's thinking continued to issue instructions: "Consume 1000 reputation and shorten the construction time to 1 day!"

Now that the previous construction time has been shortened, there is nothing wrong with continuing to shorten it now. For Kant, all he lacks is the dinar, and the prestige point is absolutely not lacking for him now!

What he wants is a castle built quickly in a short period of time!

[Ding... The construction time has been shortened.]

The system pops up a dialog box.

Right under Kant, in the "Drehem" castle, buildings were instantly built in the data stream.

It is really being built at a speed visible to the naked eye.

Originally, the houses with stone as the base and wood as the walls are all built with neatly cut stones in the data flow. Whether it is walls or pillars, the whole body is made of stones produced in the mountains of the Kingdom of Swadia. Even the roof is also built. It is made of stone blocks, and only a few structures, such as wall brackets, doors and windows, are made of wood.

The original 3-meter-high house was directly transformed into a 6-meter-high 2-story building.

The capacity has doubled directly!

These 100 high-end houses that have basically been remodeled can fully accommodate 1,500 civilians, even if 700 soldiers go in to rest, it is more than enough, because the interior living space of the newly-appeared high-end houses can be said to be greatly increased!

If it is a Datong shop, regardless of comfort, it can accommodate 5,000 people!

An extremely terrifying number!

With Kant's "Drehem" castle, it can now accommodate 5,000 fully armed soldiers. As long as the food and drinking needs are met, even tens of thousands of troops may not be able to attack this castle, especially With the help of the cruel environment and geographical advantages of the Nalun Desert, even if hundreds of thousands of troops arrive, they will have to drink their hatred on the spot!

The siege battle has always been ten times that of the defending side, and only then can it be possible to win.

Because the city defense advantage is really too exaggerated.

The right time, place, and people are in harmony, and the location is also a factor of city defense. Even when the morale of the city defenders is high and the reserves are sufficient, it is as difficult as heaven to capture the city!

Earth's history has proven this.

Both Chinese and foreign.

Or it is classical, feudal, and modern.

If you want to capture a defensive city that is united as one, you will never be able to capture it without heavy casualties. Even if you capture it, your own losses will be extremely heavy, which will eventually lead to delays in the war and cause subsequent chain reactions.

Especially on the high-level walls of the "Drehem" castle, there are almost a lot of large arrow towers and large towers. If 5,000 defenders are stationed, including 1,000 archers, it is enough to maximize the city defense fortifications The role of the attack makes any siege troops feel the feeling of being unable to get close to the city wall with arrows raining down like rain!

Kant currently does not have 5,000 fully armed soldiers, but there are 1,500 civilians, and nearly 700 elite soldiers, as well as the advanced clock tower that has been upgraded!

The height of 20 meters is close to the executive hall next to it.

Almost all of this high-level clock tower has become a part of the governing hall, and even the arrow tower of the governing hall has a small opening, just enough to go directly to the high-level clock tower next to it at a height of 10 meters.

If the situation requires, this advanced clock tower can not only serve as a watchtower, but also serve as an arrow tower for archers!

Most useful, however, are its features.

[Advanced Clock Tower: Civil/Military Building. Large buildings made of neatly cut stone blocks. There is a big bronze bell on the top tower, which can be used for daily timekeeping or alarm. Architectural features: ①Emergency mobilization: When the war comes, ring the bronze bell to recruit all civilians to protect their homes. During the defense period, all civilians will be temporarily promoted to the Swadian militia. ② High morale: When the enemy attacks during the war, the bronze bell will be rung and the deafening bells will sound to motivate the soldiers to fight, and the morale will not be low due to the long-term siege of the enemy or the cruel battle situation.]

Kant scanned the introduction of the high-level clock tower. Compared with the previous fortress-level clock tower, it has also undergone earth-shaking changes, and the ability brought to the entire castle defender is almost a qualitative change.

The original feature was to upgrade civilians to Swadian recruits.

And now it is the Swadian militia.

Although the low-level arms of level 1 and level 2 are not very helpful to Kant's current combat order, they cannot hold back the Swadian militia transformed from 1,500 civilians and rely entirely on their numerical advantages to win.

In the real world, there is no such thing as health and defense.

Even if you are a powerful extraordinary knight.

One can defeat a hundred, one can defeat a thousand, but once a spear is pierced into the heart, the damn thing is this almost invincible extraordinary knight. With such a fatal injury, it is impossible to survive.

If it is in the game, being stabbed in the heart may be a critical attack.

Although he lost a lot of blood, he still attacked vigorously, and he didn't look like he was injured at all.

These Swadian militias, with the help of towering, wide and heavy fortifications, can completely become the most important numerical advantage of the defenders. If the enemy wants to attack, even if he climbs up the city wall, he will have to wait for work. Militiamen with heavy spears, pickaxes, and broad shields, the most tenacious resistance!

A pickaxe capable of piercing armor in melee combat is not a vegetarian.

What's more, on the narrow city wall, the fight is about life and death!

The second feature that appeared in the high-level clock tower, high morale, is the feature that makes any soldier's morale high, and he can risk his life and fight desperately.

If you add Kant's miracle, the horn that can increase morale [the power of command], it can even make the militiamen burst out with morale beyond their original mentality, even if they have the courage to kill the enemy together, they can appear like a lunatic Fight, defend your home and country, without fear of sacrifice!

Castle-level buildings often have their unique meanings!

After all, the village is only the most basic unit, which is closer to a symbolic stronghold in meaning.

A fortress is an expanded version of a power stronghold. With its own scope, a fortress may be established in an important place to represent the rule of the power, but more importantly, it is to determine the right to rule.

Castles are different.

The castle is the true center of local rule, the central domain of any lord.

Attacking a village is tantamount to provocation.

Attacking a fort is tantamount to declaring war.

Then attacking the castle is tantamount to being immortal!

The castle is no longer purely military, but also political.

Attacking the castle is a slap in the face, which will make all the lords of the castle lose face, and there is almost no possibility of discussing with the attackers in detail, unless the two win or lose, or one party is defeated, they can sit at the negotiating table and communicate.

Therefore, castle-level buildings are not only perfect, but also consider military and political factors.

This is the case with fortifications and advanced towers.

The same is true for civil construction.

[Ding... system prompt]

[Please confirm the construction site of the following buildings, and the construction will start quickly.]

Among the people's livelihood buildings built by Kant, there are still many buildings that are not upgraded. He needs to personally select the location to connect all these people's livelihood buildings to form a complete channel.

That's right, it's the channel.

Deep water wells, water towers, water diversion channels, small fountains, fire towers, and guard towers are all integrated.

It needs to be connected into channels to build a perfect one.

The water tower can be connected to a deep well or running water, so that the water truck can transport the water to the huge water tower, forming a height difference, and then pour the drawn water into the water diversion channel, so that clean water can enter the small fountains and fire towers connected to the water diversion channel , and can be used by soldiers and civilians living in the castle.

Not only can it be used as daily drinking water, but at critical times, if a fire breaks out in the city, the person in charge of the guard tower can summon civilians to use buckets to receive drinking water from fountains and canals, and quickly extinguish the fire.

This is a well-established water source mechanism in castle-level buildings.

Even if the enemy can't attack for a long time, if you use fire attack, you can quickly put it out without fear of the flames.

Therefore, although these castle-level buildings are for civilian use, they actually have military elements in them.

Kant pondered for a moment.

These buildings should be arranged reasonably, especially the water towers and deep wells, which are the center of the channel, should be placed carefully.

The interior of the castle seen from God's perspective is clear.

100 high-end houses occupy the entire southern living area.

The handicraft areas in the west were all crowded out.

The ruling district in the north and the military district in the east are also very crowded due to the increasing number of buildings.

However, when all the buildings are completed and the castle level has basically been upgraded to the top, what Kant considers is no longer the upgrade of the "Drehem" castle, but to develop more villages, upgrade them to castles or cities, and create for himself Control the entire Nalun Desert to make an important contribution.
