Alien Lord

Xu Sheng walked to Lin Ze's side, clasped his fists and said, "My lord, the leader of the Black Wind Pirates is really tough. I have ordered someone to break three whips, but he just doesn't speak."

Lin Ze looked coldly at the mangled leader of the Black Wind Pirates, and said coldly: "Xu Sheng, continue to torture him, but remember not to beat him to death, save his life, I'm still useful."

"Yes, my lord!" Xu Sheng took the order, and once again turned around to "serve" the leader of the Black Wind Pirates.

"what!"

Soon, in the dark prison cell, there was another shrill scream

Here, Lin Ze led the officers out of the cell and onto the wall of Heisha City.

There are killer bees who have been staring at Xiao Quan. The so-called confession of the leader of the Black Wind Bandit Cavalry is dispensable to Lin Ze.

Along the way, the streets of Black Sand City were full of soldiers preparing for war, and some hired civilians were making and carrying more rolling logs and stones, and some people were carrying vats of gold juice and other things. wall. (Golden juice is actually something like feces. Boiled feces and urine were often used by ancient city guards. Not only can they scald and kill enemies, but also the feces are dirty and the wounds are rotten, making it difficult to heal.)

Now all the men in Heisha City are incorporated into the logistics department of the army, and even all the strong women have been organized, and the rations in Heisha City are also distributed as a whole.

Lin Ze did this to increase manpower.

He brought only 30,000 troops, and none of the other auxiliary personnel. Therefore, these auxiliary personnel can only recruit the strong people in Heisha City.

The second is, in order to avoid the hidden line of Heisha Island hidden in it, and make trouble at the most critical moment.

The third is to provide a way of life for the poor in Heisha City who are below the level of food and clothing, or even have a full meal and a hungry meal.

It is precisely because of Lin Ze's actions that although the streets of Heisha City are full of tension and soldiers patrolling constantly, there is no chaotic scene. When the civilians in Heisha City looked at Lin Ze and the others, There was no look of hatred.

Lin Ze and others came to the city wall and carefully checked some of the security measures above.

In the plan of everyone in Lin Ze, if the Black Wind Bandits attack the city directly, they must attack the east gate of Heisha City!

Because, outside the west gate and north gate of Heisha City, there are full of pits and pits, and the ground is full of stones, making it difficult to walk, let alone attack the city.

The most important thing is that the terrain here is not spacious, it can even be said to be narrow, let alone an army of more than 200,000, even an army of more than 20,000 can fill the open space here .

If the Black Wind Pirates attacked the city from that side, they would just become the target of the catapult on the city wall. If they did not kill hundreds of people in one round of attack, it would definitely be considered a failure.

In addition, the Heifeng Pirates just filled those pits, and they would die a lot of people. Therefore, if the Heifeng Pirates really wanted to attack from Ximen, Lin Ze and the others could not wait to see if the Heifeng Pirates could die or not.

The other north gates and south gates are almost in the same form. Therefore, according to the plan, the main troops and equipment in Heisha City are arranged near the east gate, and only the necessary guarding forces are left behind at the other gates.

According to Lin Ze's calculations, the width of the east wall of Heisha City is more than five miles.

There are more than 2,000 battlements above, more than 50 guard posts, and three small urns inside, especially the urn in front of the east gate, which is a powerful barrier to protect the east gate.

There are some guard posts on each wall of Heisha City. Each post is not small in size. A small castle is equivalent to the size of the canteens in the school, and the part protruding from the city wall is about one meter. If the enemy below the city wall wants to climb up, the difficulty will increase a lot, and there are countless holes on the wall protruding from the city wall of the post, some of which exist as fat-watching holes, and others are used for archery or heavy crossbows. Kongdong, such an outpost exists on the city wall, it is definitely a huge firepower point, and it is also the most feared existence of the enemy.

As for the horse faces, along the two sides of the city wall of the cave gate, there are two horse faces at a distance of fifty or sixty meters. The protruding part of the city wall on the horse face is about five meters long and six to seven meters wide.

There are many shooting eyes under or beside the lookout hole.

(In the ancient days of cold weapons in China, in order to strengthen the defensive ability of the city gates, many cities had more than two city gates, forming "urn cities", and the city walls protruded from the rectangular piers at regular intervals to facilitate the defenders from the side. Attacking the enemy, this kind of pier is called the city defense facility of the enemy's platform, commonly known as "horse face".

In fact, it is the protrusions or protruding parts on the city wall. It's like the beacon tower on the Great Wall. )

As for the Wengcheng in Heisha City, it looks like a small castle. On the left side of the Wengcheng, there is a door open, and there is a horse face on the wall dozens of steps away from the left. This distance is just within the shooting range of the bow and arrow. , from the horse face on the left, you can severely hit the enemy attacking the gate.

According to Lin Ze's calculations, the dozens of crenels on the urn city, and more than a hundred crenels along the walls on both sides of the city gate, will be the main attacking ground after the Black Wind Bandit Legion, so this place will also become the base of his army. The main layout.

Lin Ze attaches great importance to this place, so he directly arranges his strongest army to guard here, and is equipped with the best weapons.

Every soldier, Lin Ze gave them the best armor and best weapons.

These armors and weapons are not the broken weapons at the bottom of the warehouses before, but Lin Ze directly selected them from the excellent weapons of the White Elephant Legion in the warehouse of Huangsha Town.

After Lin Ze became the chief soldier, he was qualified to choose weapons and armor from the warehouse in Huangsha Town.

Not only that, Lin Ze also equipped his subordinates with a large number of crossbows. Anyway, there are many of these crossbows in the military warehouse in Heisha City, and now they can be used now.

Although the quality of these crossbows is average, it is better than letting the sergeant directly fight the enemy in close combat.

Lin Ze directly arranged nearly 5,000 troops on the frontal battlefield, and there are tens of thousands of troops behind them as backup. The strength is absolutely abundant. With such a defensive method, Lin Ze believes that the Black Wind Pirates do not have ten times the number of people. Can't beat his own defense.

Some people wonder why Lin Ze doesn't use gunpowder. The method of making gunpowder is very simple, and making explosives or grenades is an absolute weapon for the defensive side. Could it be that Lin Ze doesn't want to make gunpowder on the mainland of China? ? Or was he afraid of gunpowder threatening him?

To be honest, Lin Ze really thought about making gunpowder, but after thinking about it carefully, he gave up.

First of all, it is not difficult to manufacture gunpowder, but if it is to be used on a large scale in the military, the quantity will be huge. This must require tons of charcoal, nitrate, and sulfur.

Fortunately, charcoal can be obtained easily, but where can Lin Ze find nitrate and sulfur? !

Fortunately, sulfur can be found in some volcanic areas, such as the Baizhangyan where Lin Ze went before, there are countless sulfur, but it is impossible for Lin Ze to mine it on a large scale. The countless powerful beasts in Baizhangyan will teach those who want to come here to mine sulfur how to behave here.

Sulfur can be found, but the problem of nitrate is big.

Nitrate is the name on the earth. God knows what it is called on the mainland of China. Even if Lin Ze found the name of nitric acid on the mainland of China, it is still a problem to collect nitrate on a large scale.

It is not so easy to find saltpeter ore. It takes a long time to find minerals even in modern times with modern technology, let alone on the mainland of China.

As for collecting soil nitrate with urine and feces, hehe, in this way, Lin Ze would have to build a plant to refine nitrate, and the time and money needed to spend in this process would not be a small amount.

Secondly, it is because it is really too difficult to keep the specific formula of gunpowder secret on the mainland of China.

The Shenzhou Continent is full of warriors with high martial arts skills, acquired warriors, and innate warriors. They can easily appear anywhere by using light skills. It is impossible for Lin Ze to guard the place where gunpowder is made and the staff who make gunpowder all the time. So, when the time comes, the method of making gunpowder will soon be leaked, Lin Ze is asking for trouble for himself.

/\u003e Also, in fact, it is also the most important reason, that is, this is the mainland of China, the mainland of China, and martial arts are the most respected!

Although the power of gunpowder seems to be huge on the earth, the power of explosion is extremely strong, but here in the mainland of China, the power of gunpowder is really not enough.

Weapons made of gunpowder are a threat to ordinary people on the mainland of China, but to the warriors here, the threat is really not that great.

Even if he is a martial artist of the acquired level, he can easily resist the attack of grenades//bullets//bullets/pieces/, explosives//powder//bags and the like. Of course, if you directly prepare several tons of gunpowder, that's another matter.

Warriors at the first level of the day after tomorrow can withstand the attack of grenades, but what about stronger warriors? !

What Lin Ze will face in the future will be all warriors of the innate level. Gunpowder can't even deal with the warriors of the acquired level, so why not deal with the strong ones of the innate level? !

In the end, Lin Ze has already been in the limelight enough and big enough. If he takes out strategic fire/powder/weapon/weapon, then he will be directly exposed in front of the world, royal family, sect, aristocratic family , will come to trouble Lin Ze, what will Lin Ze do then?

With the above reasons, even though Lin Ze knew that making gunpowder was easy, he was still not ready to take out gunpowder.

Taking out the gunpowder will do more harm than good to Lin Ze!
