Chapter 567: Horrible Coal Mountain, Lie Down Happily!
One hundred tons. Google search reading
To maintain the economy mode and maintain 24 degrees, about two tons are needed to meet the daily consumption.
Of course, this value is based on the outside temperature of minus 20 degrees during heavy snowfall.
Wait until the big drop in temperature, minus 40 degrees.
If you still want to maintain this temperature, you will have to spend more, and it is very likely to reach three tons or even four tons per day to meet the demand.
But even such a horrible consumption is still within the scope of the huge total!
After calculating in his mind and clarifying this "income and expenditure", Su Mo suddenly felt relieved and hurried to meet it.
"Don't be careless. The things in the Blackstone Camp don't belong to us. Only when they are transported back to the village, they will become our assets."
"According to this progress, there are still more than a dozen trips to come. We must ensure that there will be no problems!"
Chen Shen, who was in charge of transportation, nodded quickly: "Director, I understand this!"
"The intelligence team has already stepped up and evenly distributed around the Blackstone Camp. Once someone from the dwarf hinterland comes to investigate, they can react immediately!"
"Okay!"
The population of the territory is a double-edged sword.
If it is used poorly, it will be like the Origin Camp. Each of them fights on their own. Not only can they not form a suitable combat power, but they also drag down the progress of the large army, and the tail is too big to be cut off.
If it is used well, it will be like now. Everyone has their own duties, like a small precision gear, making the precision instrument of the main body of the plan turn faster and more stable!
Knowing his responsibilities and confirming that there was no problem with the transportation, Su Mo did not stay for long, but returned to the small house on the high slope along the original route again.
Before, when I was sitting in this room, the rumbling sound of the generator sounded a little noisy.
But now, it is like the horn of victory, which makes people feel happy no matter how they listen to it.
After putting on the helmet again and switching the perspective to the first person, Su Mo quickly commanded.
At 1:09 am, Li Hu, the "defeated general", followed the same method and fled back to the Black Stone Camp again.
As expected, the dwarf leader was furious at Li Hu's incompetence.
Eighteen carts of coal, a full nine tons.
Even at the mining speed of the dwarf miners in the Black Stone Camp, they would have to work all day and night to dig enough.
This wave of losses, let alone him, would be painful for anyone else!
No more thought.
This time, the dwarf leader directly dismissed Li Hu's command, replaced the generals at the last minute, and arranged a new captain for the team.
After more than 20 minutes, nine fully loaded carts drove out of the gate of the Black Stone Camp.
The captain, who was disguised as a dwarf from the valley village, changed direction and urged the team to move forward with satisfaction.
Within 500 meters, there was nothing unusual.
At one kilometer, the progress was still smooth.
But just when the captain thought that Li Hu was really incompetent and he was lucky.
Unexpectedly, as Su Mo, who was standing in the void, spoke, the dwarf brothers behind him turned against him instantly.
Without any defense, he became a dead soul under the knife in less than three seconds!
"Very good, pick out four people from this wave of 60 people and count them as those who died with this captain"
"Don't go back together!"
In the entire escort team, only one captain died, and the rest of the dwarves were able to escape back, which was very suspicious no matter how you looked at it.
But according to Su Mo's instructions now, the excuse can be directly pushed to the dwarf captain.
In the absence of evidence, even if a reckless accusation is imposed, the dwarf leader has no way to verify it.
Like last time, the transport team is still idle this time.
Driving the lizard car, not long after, the third wave of coal slowly disappeared from sight.
Calculating the time, at 1:52 pm, the "dwarves" fled back.
"Little tree people, dare to be so arrogant, repeatedly rob our dwarf transport team and attack our camp"
"Even now secretly kill people and harm my dwarf compatriots, really"
"This is intolerable!"
"Is there any warrior willing to lead a team to take down this tree man for me, I will report to the leader to give me a great deed!"
He held up the broadsword in his hand and stood on the large platform on the second floor.
The dwarf leader's beard and hair were angry, and the flames of anger kept gushing out of his eyes.
There is a one-time and a two-time, but there is no three-time and four-time.
It was fine that the first two carts of black stone were robbed, but now the third cart, the tree people were unwilling to let it go, and even killed the transport team.
This humiliation is almost a slap in the face of the dwarves.
"I'll go, leader, let me take a group of people, and I will easily take down this arrogant tree man!"
"Leader, let me go, this tree man is looking for death!"
Among the four transport team leaders.
Li Hu replaced one, and one died just now. The remaining two raised their hands almost at the same time, looking eager to move!
However, this is not because they were encouraged by the dwarf leader to fight the tree people for the camp at the risk of their lives.
It is not for the so-called great merit that they have such courage.
But they know it well.
In this wave, even if the two do not raise their hands, the dwarf leader will most likely assign this task to them.
In this way, it is better to take the initiative now, at least if they can't beat them and run back, they can still have some excuses.
"Very good, since the two warriors are willing to drive away the tree people, I am very relieved"
"So, Batum, you take a team out, and Dadan, you take one out as well."
"Even if we can't kill all the tree people, we must find out their traces and locations as much as possible."
With a big wave of his hand.
The dwarf leader directly recruited all the transport teams, and also pulled some miners to form a miscellaneous hunting team.
As for the defenders in the city, in his words, they have to protect the safety of the entire camp and not fall into the enemy's trick of luring the tiger away from the mountain.
The two captains didn't dare to say it out loud despite the slander in their hearts.
They had to count the troops and rushed out of the east and west gates at 2:10 in the afternoon.
Among them, the villagers of the depression accounted for 26 seats in the 60 people led by Batum.
On the other side, Dadan's team accounted for 30 seats.
With half the number, if they acted rashly, even if they could kill the captain on the spot, it would be difficult to guarantee that the remaining people would have the ability to send messages.
"Let the tree people attack the city, start now!"
The situation is clear.
Naturally, there is no need to drag it on.
After commanding the treeman team and making a feint attack in the same way as last time, the dwarf leader also found something wrong.
But unfortunately, by the time he reacted, the two teams he sent out had already been killed.
Even though he had planted spies among the miners, he was unable to send a message back in time.
It was obvious that there was more than one "team" of treemen!
After a battle, the time came to 2:30 in the afternoon, and the sun was halfway down.
This time, there were fewer dwarf remnants returning. Not only were all the miners and the captain dead or wounded, but even the transport team had lost 16 people!
Looking at the remaining 40 remnants, everyone had a look of relief on their faces.
The dwarf leader sighed, and his previous ambitions disappeared completely.
"Sir, our target is 30 cars a day"
"Now, should we transport it or not!"
Looking at the "old" dwarf leader, Li Hu felt funny in his heart, but his face was dead silent.
According to the published order, each camp must provide another 100 carts of black stone before the heavy snow comes.
With the current storage in the Black Stone Camp, 100 carts are only 50 tons.
Distributed every day, only 30 carts are needed to complete it.
Not much.
Coupled with the strict rules of the dwarves, the dwarf leader was forced to sign the military order.
But now
"Transport? How to transport? Now the tree people are clearly waiting for us outside. If we go out, we will die!"
"Besides, we don't have many coolie lizards. If two more batches die, even if the tree people leave, we will have no transportation capacity!"
Pointing to the remaining more than 30 coolie lizards, the dwarf leader looked ashen.
"What if they leave?"
"What if? Do you dare to go out and try?"
Hearing Li Hu's uncertain guess, the dwarf leader's eyes flashed first, and then leaned back on the chair weakly.
After a long while.
He said weakly: "If you want to try, take the rest and try it."
"However, if they want to rob the black stone, let them rob it, try their best."
"Come back alive"
Because of his wrong decision, the dwarf camp lost hundreds of people directly.
Knowing that if he didn't think about transporting the black stone back, he would still die in the end.
The dwarf leader had no choice but to give up his power.
And this just happened to be the most important part of the plan!
"Okay, sir, I'm willing to go out and try!"
Making the same resigned expression as the dwarf leader, Li Hu stepped back, and then resolutely turned around and walked downstairs.
Ten minutes later, a large cart loaded with black stone set off from the city gate.
It was still the road that was robbed before!
However, this time more black stone was pulled out, a full twelve carts!
"Calling the bird's nest, the hamster has been put into the cage, requesting to proceed to the next plan!"
"Bird's nest received, 35 degrees south, 2400 meters, there is a response!"
After receiving the response, he drove the coolie lizard car easily.
The lurking team and the transport team met two and a half kilometers outside the camp.
With all the previous coolie lizards, the two sides completed the handover without much effort.
Li Hu and his team got most of the lizards that were lost before, as well as the empty coal transport car.
The transport team returned happily with twelve new cars of coal!
It can be said that "each takes what he needs"!
…
"Sir, although we lost the black stone, I led people to follow them quietly and found our lizards and cars. This wave"
"Not a loss!"
Standing in front of the stunned dwarf leader, Li Hu said so.
Twelve cars of coal were exchanged for eighteen new cars and nearly fifty coolie lizards.
In terms of quantity, it is indeed not a loss.
Even with the three "wastes" before, Li Hu was still helping the camp to stop losses.
"How about we wait until tomorrow to transport them?"
Swallowing his saliva and retracting the vehicle, the dwarf leader suddenly felt confident.
But before he finished speaking, Li Hu interrupted him confidently: "Sir, the weight of the black stone is not trivial. Since they have abandoned the lizards and carts, it is not easy to transport them by their own strength."
"We have more than 20 black stones in total. I don't believe they can take them all away!"
"How about I take a few more carts out to try?"
As soon as he heard what Li Hu said, the dwarf leader thought about it and realized that this was also the case, so he could only nod his head uneasily.
"Be careful. If they still grab it, try to save our manpower and transportation capacity as much as possible. Don't send them all in at once!"
With this level of promise.
At 3:40 in the afternoon, twenty large trucks came out, carrying ten tons of coal!
Compared with the previous scale, this time's transportation queue looked vast at first glance.
Waving to the worried dwarf leader standing on the city wall, Li Hu raised his dagger and the team started moving.
Familiar route.
Familiar handoff.
Having reached this point, in order to save trouble, Li Hu simply led the people and the transport team to join them.
After arriving at the border of the depression and unloading all the black rocks, he drove back all the coal truck lizards he had lost before.
He leaves in a hurry and returns in a hurry.
Looking at the empty cart and Li Hu's confident expression, the dwarf leader not only didn't say much this time, but even had the same idea of not believing in evil in his heart.
The black stones that exist in the camp were accumulated by hundreds of dwarf miners working day and night for nearly a month.
Even luck can take dozens of days.
He didn't believe that the tree man could snatch it away, let alone transport it away without the help of carts and lizards.
At 4:20 in the afternoon, more cars went out this time, a total of 32 cars, weighing up to 16 tons!
Extremely exaggerated, almost every transport dwarf takes care of one vehicle.
At 4:48 pm, the team was "robbed" again and failed to return.
At 5:25 pm, the number of vehicles in the fleet increased again, reaching a full 35 vehicles, almost approaching the maximum capacity of the camp.
Four losses totaled 82 cars, weighing up to 41 tons.
Including this time's 35 vehicles, more than half of the black stone inventory in the camp has been emptied.
Until now, under the temptation of Li Hu who kept saying that he could satisfy his request just once.
The dwarf leader was also like a gambler who lost his sights and risked everything.
At 6:08 pm, the team returned.
At 6:30 p.m., Blackstone Camp's capacity reached its upper limit, and the number of one-time transport vehicles finally reached one per person, up to 40 vehicles!
At this point, the coal storage that the dwarves had been digging for a month had already been emptied of 80 tons!
The coal piled at the edge of the depression is also like a hill, which makes people feel happy just looking at it.
"Calling the Luan Bird, the harvest has been enough. If the risk level is judged to be high, the mission can be terminated at any time."
"Luanniao received it, the hamster has taken the bait and can continue to perform the task!"
There were still twenty tons left in the Blackstone Camp, and Li Hu became greedy.
Compared with eighty tons, twenty tons doesn't sound like much, but it can be used at full power for ten days to heat the depression!
After standing nearby and judging for a while, Sumo also decided to take a risk.
First, it is already late now, and even if they fight, most of the tree people allies will not be able to discover the true strength of the depression.
Second, the dwarf leader has already lost money. According to the mentality of a gambler, the possibility of stopping now is almost zero.
However, Sumo decided to make a slight change in this method.
Instructing Li Hu to sit down and rest, and selecting twenty-four with good physical strength and energy from the remaining forty militiamen, Sumo handed over the task.
The technique is very simple, hostage.
Li Hu's life, the cart, and all the lizards were exchanged for the remaining twenty tons of coal.
If it can be exchanged, everyone is naturally happy.
If you can't change, you don't have to worry about it. The remaining militiamen can easily escape from the city as long as they find an opportunity.
"I change, I change"
"You quickly take the remaining black stones and exchange them with them. Our lizard, no, our brother must not die!"
Void stood opposite the dwarf leader.
After waiting for the other party to say these words in horror, Sumo laughed silently.
After planning for such a long time, I traveled to the wilderness many times.
This time, I can finally lie down happily until winter is over!
