Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

Rhodok crossbowmen have higher attributes than light-armored archers.

In addition to the advantages of the kingdom's arms, it is also related to their excellent qualifications.

When Zong Shen redeemed them, he specifically exchanged them for these crossbowmen with higher qualifications.

Judging from attributes and skills alone, there is no doubt that the damage of these Rodok crossbowmen is indeed very high.

The basic puncture damage has reached 64 to 67 points. You must know that the initial puncture damage of the third-level dragon ranger when he was first recruited was only 70 points.

If these guys have their skills fully activated, their single-click output ability is not even inferior to that of the Dragonborn Ranger.

However, the output of crossbows actually has its own advantages and disadvantages.

Crossbows are less difficult to use and aim, and their range and power are often stronger than longbows of the same weight.

Any crossbow has a cocking device, which allows you to aim without having to consider small issues such as continuous force, straight line force, and accurate positioning.

For most people, it is quite friendly. After a short period of training, they can master considerable shooting accuracy.

The learning process of bow and arrow shooting is relatively long, and the training period is also relatively long.

The training cost to train a qualified archer is even greater.

However, the mass production cost of single bows is cheaper, and powerful compound bows can also be made.

Similarly, in long-distance shooting, arrows are more stable than crossbow bolts.

As for the rate of fire, the radio frequencies of large-pound crossbows are actually about the same.

The speed of shooting is related to power and proficiency.

In short, crossbows can be regarded as two long-range brothers with their own advantages and disadvantages.

After checking the detailed skill attributes of the Rodok crossbowmen, Zong Shen already had a clear idea in his mind about how this unit should play its best role.

Based on the 65-70 points of basic piercing damage of these long-range warriors, ordinary shooting is enough to cause 10-15 points of damage to the snow monster.

Within a minute, at least a dozen rounds can be fired, which can cause one to two thousand points of damage.

Plus Luna's Huntress Squad, Wolf Cavalry Squad, and Water Mage.

Including Zong Shen himself is also a combat power that cannot be underestimated.

After everyone intervened, Zong Shen was confident that the battle would end within five minutes.

If it weren't for the snow monster's almost monster-like frost casting ability, this time could even be shortened again.

Luna parked the loader mecha in the open space, jumped out of the driver's seat nimbly, shook off the snow on her body, and walked quickly towards Zong Shen.

The same goes for all the soldiers, arranged into two untidy columns.

Waiting for Zong Shen to issue the order to go out.

Luna put one hand on her chest and reported to Zong Shen in a formal manner.

"Sir, all the soldiers have been assembled."

"Please give further instructions."

Hearing this, Zong Shen slammed the trident into the ground with one hand.

A gap the size of a watermelon was immediately opened in the ice.

Debris and snow foam flew everywhere under the cone-shaped impact head.

All the soldiers suddenly became quiet and stood up straight.

"Winter is coming, and the snow monster is coming."

"Today's mission is simple."

"That's hunting the Yeti."

"I hope these few days of leisure have not exhausted everyone's fighting spirit."

Zong Shenyan said concisely and concisely that after setting off for the expedition in a few days, the necessary sense of ceremony cannot be missing.

“It’s a great honor to stand side by side with you!”

All the warriors roared, including those who had recently joined.

Zong Shen nodded with satisfaction and took out another modified loader mecha.

This time there are more people going on the expedition. Except for the wolf cavalry and the huntress who bring their own riding beasts, everyone else needs to ride the loader mecha.

"Vereesa, you drive this one."

Zong Shen pointed at the loader mecha that Luna drove back.

"Twelve Rhodok crossbowmen, six light crossbowmen, four dragonborn rangers, four water mages, Tasia, and Aisha, you all get on board."

"Your mission is to roam and attack, and always maintain a distance of 100 meters to 150 meters to launch sustained long-range strikes."

"Except for Tasia and Aysia's fourth-level summoning skills, you can each use your own skills at will."

"Katis, all of you dragon-turned-gun-and-shield warriors are riding in another loader mecha."

"This loader mecha will be piloted by me personally."

"Luna, Colby, you are responsible for roaming and attacking, and find suitable opportunities to launch attacks on your own."

Zong Shen quickly deployed, and the two loader mechas were equipped with different warriors.

It is divided into melee group, long-range group and guerrilla group.

All the soldiers followed his request and got into the cargo hold of the loader mecha.

Zong Shen first put the [Magic Hot Air Balloon] that he had thrown on the ground back into the storage compartment.

Within the range of the heat ball's effect, the entire ice layer was melted by one or two centimeters.

A less obvious depression was formed.

Zong Shen quickly came to the side of another loader mecha, pedaled to the driver's seat with ease, took out the magic energy crystal, filled it with magic energy, and then activated the magic energy core.

Take the lead and move towards the southwest of the territory. There is a golden circle mark 4.3 kilometers to the southwest. The distance of this mark is second only to the golden circle mark in the southeast.

The east to southeast sides have already been given to Mariel and the others, and Zong Shen is not prepared to interfere.

The main purpose of this team is to train them.

For this reason, he would not hesitate even if there were certain casualties or damage to buildings.

As the base of the territory becomes larger and larger, the population increases.

He could no longer be the carefree nanny he had been before.

If the wings are spread too wide, the chick will not be able to learn to fly.

Zong Shen now just wants to let others have the ability to take charge of their own affairs.

As the first batch of heroic talents, they will become the mainstay of the territory.

Moreover, heroes can also be recruited under their names.

He hopes that even when he is not in the territory or other situations occur, other heroes in the territory can shoulder the responsibility and let the territory develop steadily instead of standing still.

This is actually true even when fighting alone.

There were one to two hundred warriors in Zong Shen's territory.

He cherishes his feathers too much, which is actually wrong.

Only bleeding pain is the best teacher, which can promote everyone's growth and progress.

Including Vereesa and Doris, who are currently designated as battle heroes by him.

It was precisely because he figured this out that Zong Shen completely changed his previous style.

When the territory is still small and weak, cherishing feathers and being cautious is the right choice.

But when the territory gradually develops and grows, you can't be too nervous.

This will limit the potential of the territory. There are hundreds of farmers, more than a hundred warriors, and hundreds of kobolds, but they cannot be fully mobilized.

It must be experienced and shed blood in order to cope with the multi-threaded development of the territory.

No matter how powerful Zong Shen is, he can only deal with one thing at a time.

He wore a battle helmet, which shielded him from most of the cold wind while driving.

After carrying people, the load-bearing mecha has a higher self-weight.

This makes driving in the snow smoother.

The homemade snow shovel installed at noon also played a big role.

The height of the snow shovel is slightly higher than the height of the chassis, and it can be adjusted appropriately through the position of the socket.

Now the entire height can be used to scoop up snow and ice in the front that is higher than the chassis.

Even some of the protruding ice will be shoveled away.

The bottom edge of the snow shovel has been slightly sanded.

Able to shovel away ice and floating snow at a specific cutting angle.

The main body of the board is made of a knuckle-thick forged steel plate, which is strong enough to ensure use.

Paired with the special magic energy core of the loader mecha with powerful torque.

It can give the snow shovel powerful shoveling power.

But as the temperature continues to drop, once the temperature enters the polar state of minus 50 degrees Celsius.

The hardness of the ice layer will further increase, while the strength of the steel plate will decrease slightly.

The craftsmanship of these snow shovels is more complicated than the protective chain spurs.

It is also recognized by the lord system and is a sophisticated forged item.

[Rivet-mounted snow shovel (green)]

[Quality: Excellent grade]

[Durability: 500]

[Effectiveness: Able to clear up to 70 cm of snow or 30 cm of ice]

This is a very practical item, especially for Zong Shen.

But it is not suitable for selling, because magic machines like the Weight Bearer are not universal, and those anti-slip chain spikes are more troublesome.

In terms of material cost, it takes about two parts iron and one part wood to make a set of anti-skid chain spurs.

This is a pure material cost. In addition to consuming normal materials for forging in the blacksmith shop, wood is an indispensable consumable.

Those smelting furnaces and forging furnaces consume a lot of wood.

Some of the wood is dry-roasted in a wind stove to turn it into charcoal.

Use the two together to control the extreme temperature of the stove.

When there are many forging tasks, the wood consumption of the blacksmith shop even exceeds the daily construction consumption.

But overall, the blacksmith shop still makes a steady profit.

After all, the blacksmith shop run by Bronzebeard Jiuhuo, a Bronzebeard dwarf who has mastered advanced blacksmithing skills, is already one of the few departments in the territory that has created a lot of profits.

Leaving aside the digression for the moment, it was 2:27 in the afternoon, shortly after the second phase of the territory started.

Facing the snowflakes falling all over the sky, Zong Shen and Vereesa drove the snow shoveling version of the loader mecha through the snow.

On the vast white land, two paths were forced out.

The load-bearing mecha rolled over the ice and pushed away the snow, with the aura of riding the wind and waves and moving forward indomitably.

The weather in winter is like a woman's mood, it changes at will.

It's obviously not dark yet, but the clouds in the sky are particularly gloomy now.

It turned from gray-white to gray-brown, like a bed of dirty cotton wool.

It also prevents sunlight from shining smoothly.

The brightness of the surrounding light is very low, just like the eve of the rising sun at four or five o'clock in the morning.

It seems bright but not bright, seems dark but not dark.

Equipped with a heavy snow shovel and loaded with such warriors.

The speed of the loader mecha has also been affected to a certain extent.

In particular, the constant resistance when the snow shovel is shoveling away the snow in advance is a big burden.

These factors reduced the top speed of the Weight Bearer mecha by approximately 20%.

The target snow monster is also moving towards the southeast direction at a constant speed.

It seemed to be attracted by the territories of other surrounding lords, and its target was not Zong Shen.

According to the distance and direction, it is most likely the territory of a nearby legion member.

In such a chasing situation, it took Zong Shen and the others twelve or thirteen minutes to catch up with the snow monster.

The noise of the loader's mecha as it moves forward is not small, and the friction noise of the snow shovel can be clearly heard even hundreds of meters away.

So this time, there was no need for Zong Shen and others to take the initiative. The snow monster broke out of the ice and snow stealth state on its own, and instantly transferred the target of hatred to Zong Shen.

He raised his hand and began to condense ice arrows one after another, shooting towards the loader mecha.

The wolf cavalry and huntresses were active on both sides. After seeing the snow monster appear, they immediately increased the running speed of the riding beast and further dispersed towards the two wings.

Zong Shen was not afraid in the face of danger. The loader mecha he was driving was in front, and Vereesa's one was behind him.

After spotting the snow monster, Vereesa immediately began to slow down, widen the distance between her and Zong Shen, and then turned around and began to arc toward the right.

This snowfield is very empty, and the previous super-cold water ice rain has frozen the originally undulating ground into a relatively smooth whole.

Almost as soon as the snow monster appeared, the queue was dispersed.

Zong Shen drove the melee mecha, which was responsible for carrying heavy loads, and rushed towards the snow monster's face.

The snow monster was also unambiguous. He raised his hand and held four ice arrows.

Zong Shen had no intention of escaping.

The situation looked very dangerous, and he actually had the illusion that he was going to let the heavy-bearing mecha resist the cold and ice arrows.

The dragon-turned-gun-and-shield warriors leaning on the warehouse in a half-crouched position didn't care.

He just used his big shield to cover the falling snow in the sky.

They had long been prepared for a mental and physical fight with the snow monster.

In this dragon-turned-gun-and-shield team, seven were old members of the territory, and five were later recruited through points exchange.

Although they joined at different times, these guys have very similar personalities.

As gun and shield warriors, they have the resilience to be strong and brave.

They were at the scene when they dealt with the first winter snow monster in the territory just now.

He knew exactly what this guy was doing, so he wouldn't panic because of it.

The most important thing is that they all chose to believe in Zong Shen.

At this time, Zong Shen in the driver's seat was holding the direction with one hand.

He took out the magic disk of [Hot Shield] with one hand.

He stretched out the driver's seat and chose to activate the shield.

A 2 meter × 2 meter rectangular flame shield condensed and formed almost immediately.

Blocking the position three meters in front of the loader mecha.

Four ice arrows shot through the wind and snow.

Four ice flowers exploded on the surface of the flame shield!
