0172: Black Gold Mine

Soon, the resources obtained from the attack on Black Wind Mountain were also counted.

When Cao Qingtian saw Yang Yuhuan, Yang Yuhuan's face was mixed with joy and sorrow, which made Cao Qingtian's expression slightly depressed.

"Just tell me what's going on. I'm already mentally prepared."

With a faint sigh, Yang Yuhuan opened her red lips.

"Lord City Lord, this attack on Black Wind Mountain has yielded a lot, but our casualties are also serious."

"This time, our troops lost more than a hundred!"

Hearing this, Cao Qingtian was silent for a moment, but soon relieved.

Black Wind Mountain is easy to defend and difficult to attack. If ordinary people led troops to attack Black Wind Mountain directly, they might be completely wiped out.

Fortunately, Chaos City has Han Xin and Huo Qubing this time, and the soldiers of Chaos City are equipped with basic equipment, so they are not vulnerable.

However, this also sounded a wake-up call for Cao Qingtian.

As long as there is a war, there will be casualties. Casualties cannot be eliminated, but can only be reduced.

There are only a few ways to reduce casualties: strong generals and strong army.

Strong generals, Chaos City now has two famous generals, Han Xin and Huo Qubing.

And strong army, it seems there is still a long way to go.

Now there is a training direction for Wei Wuzu in the barracks, but it suffers from the lack of necessary intermediate resources, but unfortunately, the alliance store does not sell them.

After this battle, Cao Qingtian thought about whether to buy some iron ore on the trading channel, put the training of Wei Wuzu on the agenda, and let more Wei Wuzu appear in the barracks.

But these are all later.

"Let's talk about the harvest this time."

"Lord City Lord, according to preliminary statistics, the harvested grain this time exceeded 30,000 units, the wood exceeded 50,000 units, and the stone was a little less, but it also exceeded 10,000 units."

Although these resources are not much for Cao Qingtian, who has seen the world, they can be regarded as alleviating the urgent need.

But what surprised Cao Qingtian was Yang Yuhuan's next sentence.

"Lord City Lord, in addition to the basic primary resources, we also got nearly 200 good horses this time. In addition, there are many intermediate resources."

Cao Qingtian's eyes lit up immediately after hearing this.

It really is what you want.

At this time, because the output channels of intermediate resources are very few and difficult to obtain, and intermediate resources are closely related to improving the strength of their own cities, all top cities are competing.

This has caused the value of intermediate resources to rise, and they are basically in a situation where there is no price in the market. Once the intermediate resources appear in the trading channel, they will be exchanged in seconds, and those who miss it can only slap their thighs.

"Lord City Lord, the intermediate resources we obtained this time include iron ore and copper ore, each with 1,000 units, rosewood and Xishan jade, more than 100 units, and even a small amount of black gold ore!"

Cao Qingtian knew all about iron ore, copper ore, rosewood, and Xishan jade. Iron ore and copper ore are the extension products of stone. They are not rare among the intermediate resources, and the price is not high. Rosewood and Xishan jade are very precious. Rosewood is used to make powerful equipment, and Xishan jade is used to strengthen buildings and improve building properties.

Cao Qingtian knew the value of these two things. He saw them in the trading channel a lot. There were always top players who spent huge sums of money to buy them. In Cao Qingtian's cognition, these two were already the most precious resources among the intermediate resources. However, judging from Yang Yuhuan's performance, the black gold ore that had not appeared before seemed to be even rarer.

"What is the use of this black gold ore?"

Cao Qingtian asked Yang Yuhuan immediately.

Who knew that Yang Yuhuan's tone was stagnant.

"Lord City Lord, I don't know much about the role of black gold ore. I only know that it is an indispensable raw material for making high-level weapons. Now in Chaos City, except for the equipment on you and the Qinggang giant sword in General Han's hand, which can be regarded as high-level equipment, the rest of the weapons and equipment are the lowest-level and inferior equipment."

"Now that the Lord City Lord has obtained the black gold ore, as long as there is a formula and a super blacksmith, high-level equipment can be produced. By then, the combat effectiveness of Chaos City will surely far exceed the current level."

"Good, tell the kitchen to make more delicious food to reward the soldiers."

"In addition, with the replenishment of resources, all these resources will be invested in the construction of the city."

The current Chaos City is getting closer and closer to upgrading.

"Yes, Lord City Lord."

Cao Qingtian has a preliminary understanding of the role of the black gold ore, but perhaps someone will know more about the value of the black gold ore.

So, Cao Qingtian opened the group chat.

[Emperor Cao Tian]: "Boss, do any of you know about the intermediate resource Black Gold Mine?"

[Riding a Pig on the Highway]: "Oh my god, I will be called a boss by Boss Cao Tian one day. I am so lucky. My ancestors are so proud!"

[Yaoyao]: "Boss, you are too polite. You are the boss. We are just pendants who cling to your thighs."

[Futian Gaishi]: "Damn, a bunch of licking dogs. My father Emperor Cao Tian came with questions this time. How can you be so perfunctory?"

[I am cheap, so I am here]: "Can you be more normal, boss, I seem to have heard of this Black Gold Mine. The father of the boss of the War Alliance, Wang Kai, exploded a unit of Black Gold Mine and handed it over to the city lord who owns the super iron mine to make a high-level equipment. The increase in combat power is amazing!"

[Specialized Fish Killer]: "I've heard about this, too. I originally thought that Wang Kai's father was completely wiped out when he attacked the Yellow Turban Army's base camp, but he turned a disaster into a blessing, and got the Black Gold Mine, and created the only high-level weapon known to the entire server, leaving everyone far behind."

[Yaoyao]: "Now the trading price of Black Gold Mine in the trading channel is simply priceless, and it may not be exchanged for 10,000 units of basic resources. What, did you get the Black Gold Mine?"

[I am cheap, so I am here]: "After the Black Gold Mine came out, Da Congming analyzed that only by attacking the base camp of the local forces can you have a chance to get the Black Gold Mine. The boss has already attacked Black Wind Mountain, and the Black Wind Mountain formation is much more difficult to deal with than the camp where a small group of Yellow Turban Army gathered. Since Wang Kai's father has obtained the Black Gold Mine, Cao Tiandi has also obtained it. It's normal. But, I'm so envious!"

[Riding a Pig on the Highway]: "What's the use of being envious? At this stage, how many city lords have the strength to attack the base camp of local forces? Wang Kai's father is so awesome, but he almost lost his entire army. Except for Cao Tiandi, almost no one can do this. It's reasonable that the black gold mine is so valuable!"

[Fish Killer]: "I don't know if the big boss has a lot of black gold mines, and whether he sells them. There is no black gold mine for sale on the trading channel!"

[I am cheap, so I am here]: "Selling shit, I have a super blacksmith. If the black gold mine is in my hands, it can definitely create more than 10,000 units of basic resources at this stage!"

Cao Qingtian realized the value of the black gold mine, and I am cheap, so I am here, Cao Qingtian also remembered that he has a super blacksmith.

[Cao Tiandi]: "To be honest, I didn't get much black gold mine this time."
