Chapter 179 Lulong Fortress
Two days later, Kaslo and his party finally returned.
"How's the situation?" Roland asked Renault, who was the first to come back, boredly.
"It's good or bad. Most of the people have been recovered. Those who haven't been recovered are probably in danger. After all, we have gone deep into the dark forest and caught fire from the orc outpost!" Renault sighed.
"How much did Akvia lose this time..." Roland wanted to hear.
"Hundreds of people were lost, the stampede at the city gate caused many casualties, and part of the dark forest was attacked. Overall, the casualties were heavy." Renault sighed. This is the tragedy of a small country. There is no reaction. A small country with the ability to control the sky can only resign itself to an attack from the air.
"Forget it, let's end this sad topic and let's talk about other things!" Roland said. Although Rapid City also experienced a period of panic, the people did not lose their confidence in resistance, not only because they had the protection of dragon knights. The reason is more about the sense of security brought by Rapid City's abundant military power.
"I plan to build a fortress horizontally in the south to prevent the orcs from crossing the river to the north. I will clear the land between the fortress and Rapid City so that this place will be completely under our control." Roland said and threw out a sheepskin. map.
The exquisite map details the distribution of the various forces and the direction of the mountains and rivers, and Rapid City is also clearly marked with a crown mark. This is the more useful of the miscellaneous items that Roland signed in for.
"Is this a step too big?" Renault asked cautiously. He looked at where Roland was pointing - the other side of the river at the end of Old Forest Road!
"You can control the Old Forest Road here...the only road in the dark forest!" Roland said solemnly.
"You want to use this fortress to control the threats west of the Dark Forest?" After all, Renault was a man who served as the governor of the North in history, and his political vision is as good as his military vision!
Renault immediately understood Roland's intention. Once this fortress was established, it could immediately control the enemy's marching routes in the north and west. Now that the territory of the Singrui elves was exposed, the orcs could no longer attack the Changchun Mountains through the Dark Forest Mountains unscrupulously. The city near the lake, their fastest marching route is to march along the old forest road.
"It's a good idea, but it's a pity that we don't have the energy to build such a fortress with both offense and defense. It will take time for our existing civilian power to repair your castle..." Renault had no choice but to bite the bullet and interrupt Roland's daydreaming.
"Of course I know, but I have this..." Roland smiled mysteriously and took out a fat glass bottle from the space ring, one palm long, half a palm high and half a palm high, and handed it to Renault.
Renault took the glass bottle without knowing why and stared at it carefully.
"Dragon God! This is...could it be this!" Renault suddenly stood up and looked at Roland in disbelief.
"You guessed it right, it's what you thought!" Roland confirmed with a smile.
"This is impossible! She was destroyed! The ancestors told me that she was destroyed!" Renault said excitedly with tears streaming down his face.
"She is right in front of you. You can touch her. This is not a dream. She is still in our hands. No one can destroy her! She is our first war fortress... and also our last one." Roland said slowly, The voice is calm and steady.
"Dragon God! She is so beautiful! Look at her hundred-meter-high city wall! It is said to be built with top-grade magic stone bricks and magic arrays. Look at her main castle! It is said to be as strong as Lagrand Palace! God! These eight Falling Dragon Towers! Oh my God! Even the dragon knights dare not face their sharp edges! She..." Renault muttered endlessly.
"Phew! It seems to be working well!" Roland thought to himself.
While signing in and out, Roland even had the urge to smash the system. In order for this thing to play its role, the internal garrison would need at least ten thousand people. Its top-level magic pattern city wall would be 100 meters high and 30 meters thick. Not even the behemoth Behemoth can shake it. The giant dragon-hunting magic crossbow carried by the Meteor Dragon Tower that stands at the four corners of the inner and outer city can even kill the holy dragon head-on! The protective shield released by the mythical magic circle on top of the main castle in the middle can completely withstand the terrifying attacks of ten sixth-level professionals if it is full of energy. However, if you want to fill its belly... you may have to bankrupt the dwarves. Only then is it possible. This is the strongest war fortress ever built in the Lagrand Empire! It was also the last war fortress to fall! Lulong Fortress!
Different from the fate of being breached and demolished in the game, this time she was sealed in an alchemy bottle and signed in by Roland. As long as she chanted the correct spell to release the seal and smashed the bottle, Lulong Fortress would reappear in the world.
"I didn't expect that in the end, a wise man sacrificed himself to preserve this fortress and passed it down..." Renault looked at Roland and paused before continuing.
"Perhaps you will inherit the glory of your ancestors and let the Lagrand dragon flag be planted all over Middle-earth! The entire Middle-earth will praise the reputation of Emperor Lagrand!" Renault was convinced.
"Since we have a war fortress, there is really no problem in controlling it. Although we don't have enough troops, we can still do it with a team of 500 people! If we just defend the fortress, 500 people are enough." Renault said immediately.
"500 people are too few. It is okay for us to send a team of 1,000 people now." Roland was a little confused. You must know that the nearly 3,000 troops in Rapid City are more than the residents in the city. If there is no system, Roland's It can be called a top-notch military force, with soldiers and civilians almost 1:1.
"It's not too small. With the subsequent exchange of security forces between the two places, 500 people are just right." Renault hit the nail on the head. The distance between the two places is a bit far, and soldiers will definitely be needed to transport supplies and other things. It is better to leave a certain amount of mobile troops. necessary.
"Okay, take the soldiers and let's leave now?" Roland asked.
"Your Highness, should we make preparations first and just dive in headfirst?" Renault was stunned when he saw Roland making such a trivial statement about a military operation involving hundreds of people. Traveling? Brother! We are going to enclosure, not for an outing!
"Uh, do you still need to prepare for this?" Roland widened his pure eyes in confusion.
I'm a good boy! Do you need to prepare hundreds of people to eat horse chews? Do you really think that you are still the Lagran Empire that dominates Middle-earth? Where do you go to get supplies? Renault was immediately "conquered" by Roland.
"As expected, he is indeed the king of Lagrand..." Renault twitched the corner of his mouth, saying, does King Lagrand have that strange attribute of leaving at a moment's notice?
"Um, then go and tell Marcus to prepare something for us." Three black threads hung from Roland's head.
"Alas, population is such a big problem!" Roland felt a little headache after Renault left. The current population structure of Lagrand Kingdom is extremely unhealthy. Roland can still survive with the supply of the system and the dividends from several wars. But after a while, Roland's supplies will be unable to cope with it.
