Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard
Chapter 777: Human choice, challenge countdown
The ones who showed the most calmness were those [Elder Chimera].
They neither roared to fight back, nor trembled in fear, they still flapped their wings calmly on the spot.
All warriors and mounts were scattered around the territory.
But the power of this angry dragon's roar was too amazing, so it caused a chain reaction.
Not to mention Zong Shen's own territory, even the territories of other lords within tens of kilometers were affected by the dragon's roar, and different problems appeared.
If the real dragon doesn't show its power, Zong Shen just treats it as a sick cat.
This is the noble superior species.
Zong Shen originally wanted to teach Xiao Heizi a lesson, but this yell really saved him enough face.
It's okay to think about it, as for the northern monitoring point, he also knows, but he doesn't care even if it alarms the aborigines.
Now Zong can really make the Jucheng crusade army call Ba Ba with real swords and guns.
Not to mention a small monitoring point, even if Viscount Kunel's crusade army was used as the imaginary enemy, Zong Shen could make them come and go!
This place is different, today is different from the past, carefully maintaining the relationship with the aborigines, and dormant until now, it is time to show your fangs properly.
After all, his next strategy is to annex Saikabang City.
If the dragon roar just now really alarmed the aboriginal forces, then he wouldn't mind annexing them as soon as they came.
In addition, according to the announcement of the detailed rules of the defensive challenge.
Once the challenge starts, Endless Continent will enter a special time-stop state.
This "special" circle is subject to examination.
The general idea is that during the 24 hours of the defensive challenge, no outside time will pass.
Lords each have their own domain dedicated to defensive challenges.
After these 24 hours have passed, the time of the outside world will not be affected in any way.
Today will still be today.
In other words, the lords will spend "exclusive day" and "non-existent day".
That's where the defensive challenge specifically stops.
So even if there is any problem, you can wait until the challenge is over before dealing with it.
The dragon roar just now successfully suppressed the noise of all the farmers.
Not to mention Xiao Heizi himself, Zong Shen who is riding Xiao Heizi is the one with the most reputation.
After a short pause, as Xiao Heizi put away Longwei, Zong Shen received numerous loyalty change reminders. Such information can be hidden and not displayed at ordinary times, but it will appear as soon as he has a thought.
Zong Shen quickly opened the prompt, and after a glance, he found that the loyalty of most farmers had increased by as much as 10 to 12 points!
Deterrence is indeed a good way to quickly increase loyalty!
However, there are also a few reminders of loyalty reduction, but they are not too many, only 2 or 3 points.
From those [Giant Eagle Wind Ranger Air Cavalry] and other elf air cavalry.
These guys seem to have some dislike for the black dragon.
There is no other way, if you want to act like a big B in front of the farmer, it is **** money to increase so much loyalty.
A small number of fighters are dissatisfied and dissatisfied. Anyway, there are not many soldiers.
Life is so difficult to adjust, and so is being a lord.
After showing off a wave of operations and swiping a wave of loyalty, Zong Shen rode Xiao Hei and landed on the open space in front of everyone.
At this time, the harem group headed by Luna also walked out of the lord's fortress.
Blood Wolf Gujat and Wind God's Blessed Caniggia stood on the left and right, like loyal guards.
Zong Shen didn't get off Xiao Heizi's back, but let him turn around, using the dragon's body as a podium.
He cleared his throat in front of more than 8,000 people, and at this time Kaguinia cast his magic.
This is also an auxiliary magic in the level 1 to 3 wind spirit magic proficiency he has mastered.
Air is one of the elastic media of sound, so the wind can bring his voice to the ears of every farmer.
"Everyone, the territory is about to face a difficult challenge."
"It's also a war of all men."
"I won't send you to the front line, all you have to do is take supplies and enter the cellar shelter."
"And keep the best order and don't panic no matter what happens."
"After this challenge is over, I promise a new life for all of you!"
Zong Shen said loudly, after hearing his words, all the farmers had many doubts in their hearts, but no one dared to say anything because of his majesty.
At least for this period of time, the life in the territory is quite comfortable, there will be no shortage of food and clothing, and there will be no danger to life.
Farmers are different from warriors, they are both in a state of bewilderment and ignorance.
So Zong Shen will not mention challenges, nor will he say things like resurrection.
Because this time, what most farmers have to do is to take refuge in peace of mind and hide in the refuge cellars nine meters deep underground.
Although it cannot be compared with the fortress, it is still a good refuge.
This is especially true when it is known that the attacker has a clear hatred value priority determination.
Even if the attacker really breaks through the front line, the target of the opponent is the lord's fortress. After all, there are [Central Stone Pillar] and Zong Shen, which have the highest hatred attraction and priority.
Of course, it is not ruled out that farmers hiding in the ground will be affected by various unexpected situations.
He didn't need to explain this, because as long as he could survive the challenge, any casualties would be false.
After Zong Shen finished speaking, he deliberately paused for half a minute before continuing.
"As I said earlier, the vast majority of people will go into shelters."
"But I need five hundred brave farmers to come forward."
"These five hundred people will be charged with dangerous tasks."
"They need to fight side by side with the fighters in the territory. Under the leadership of the adults, they urgently repair the damaged buildings and defense towers. It is very likely that they will be affected by the battle."
Having said that, Zong Shen turned his head to look at Mariel who was leading the mount not far away.
He raised his finger to the open space in front of her.
"Anyone who is willing to take on this task, please leave the queue and gather in front of Lord Mariel!"
Mariel is the official head of internal affairs in the territory, and all the farmers know her.
All that needs to be said has been said, and the next step is to look at the performance of the farmers.
Rather than tough assignments and commissions, he wanted to see humanity, or he wanted to know if he could awaken the humanity suppressed by the lord system in these farmers.
His previous order to Mariel and the others was to assemble and assign 500 people to come out.
Now this plan has been temporarily changed!
He was too curious about the voluntary rules of these farmers, and whether any brave people would stand up.
He can accept whether the remaining people are showing fear or normal seeking advantages and avoiding disadvantages.
He had noticed before that most of the citizens were suppressed by invisible forces and lacked enough "humanity".
Rigid and sluggish in many aspects, even such characteristics as flattery seem to be portrayed from a template.
The same goes for fighters, but much better than farmers.
Moreover, opposite **** attraction has begun to appear among the fighters, which is also a good sign.
Zong Shen wanted to know if the farmers would bring him some surprises.
The scene was silent, and every farmer had a different expression on his face.
Or thinking, or fear, or entanglement, or dodge...
Zong Shen was condescending, standing on Xiao Heizi's back and sweeping over everyone.
After about ten seconds, the first brave farmer voluntarily left the queue.
It was a young farmer, and Zong Shen could see the vitality in him from a long distance away.
There are farmers of all ages in the territory.
I saw that the young farmer's steps were a little impetuous at first, but then became more determined.
The charm of choice is not in the result, but in the moment of making the choice.
Once the choice is determined, it becomes firm and relaxed.
When the young farmer stood still in front of Mariel and greeted her and Zong Shen respectively.
Farmers began to come out of the square of farmers behind.
"Interesting, this is the real world."
Zong Shen stood with his hands behind his back, watching the scene calmly, but couldn't help feeling a little emotional in his heart.
After waiting for five or six minutes, he finally got the result he wanted!
The farmers at the scene were divided into two groups.
The first group is a majority of people, about six or seven thousand in number. They hang their heads down, looking guilty and timid.
The other wave of people is a small number of people, the number exceeds Zong Shen's requirement of 500, and is close to the number of 1,000 people.
There are men and women, the ratio is about 3 to 1, and they all wear cotton and linen clothes issued by the territory.
It's not clean, but it's not shabby either, at least it looks neater than those refugees.
This group of people are the brave men who voluntarily undertake the task. Each of them is valiant, high-spirited, looks full of energy, and their faces are full of confidence.
"Papa papa..."
"Very good, but too much."
"To all the farmers who have stood up, you are all brave."
"After the reform of the free people, each person will be given an additional 100 dinars as the initial circulation funds."
Zong Shen clapped his hands and added that after Mariel glanced at him, he immediately called over a dozen logistics heroes to take charge of counting the number of people, and at the same time screened out 500 people on the spot.
In wartime, five hundred farmers are enough for emergency cultivation. Too many will only add to the chaos. After all, farmers basically have no combat effectiveness at all. Even militiamen who have been trained by first-level fighters and wear whiteboard equipment can be defeated in one go. Several, counting on the farmer to face the enemy is no less than placing a herd of lambs for slaughter.
Even if these are mentally prepared, the more courageous farmers will not be able to do it.
They will stand up, just to show that they have the courage to take responsibility in their hearts, and it does not mean that they can maintain it in the face of cruel battles.
Therefore, 500 people are enough to complete the task, and it is useless to have too many people, but it is easy to cause trouble.
As for how to screen, leave it to those logistics heroes.
Anyway, every brave farmer who stands up now will receive an additional initial funding of 100 dinars when the freeman program is launched.
Zong has a lot of money, and he doesn't care about the expense of less than 100,000 dinars.
This wave of operations not only allowed him to see the recovery of the people's humanity, but also gained another wave of loyalty.
The world in front of him became more real and vivid, and he had the motivation to fight on.
After finishing the farmer's inspection, Zong Shen took Luna, Blood Wolf Colby and Xiao Heizi back to the fortress.
Senior agronomist Salome Linyu and senior pharmacist Clarissa Teresa have all come here.
And senior goblin engineer Iron Hand Barent and uncle dwarf still stick to their posts.
The corresponding workshops and [Blacksmith Shop] have been relocated.
Salome Lin Yu carefully took care of the sweet potato experimental field in the yard.
The great cause of sweet potato in the future territory will set sail here!
Everything was arranged in an orderly manner.
Zong Shen asked Xiao Heizi to stand by, and Luna also ordered [Sentry Black Panther].
He used [Wandering Wandering] to bring Luna to the commanding height of the tower of the Lord's Fortress and silently looked at the situation in the surrounding territory.
Tasia and Athea went to join the caster army.
Sisters Madeleine and Mapel also report to Vereesa, and they will each lead a team of shooters to fight on the front line.
Luna does not need to go to the front line because she is pregnant.
When it's time for Luna to make a move, then the territory has almost fallen.
Zong Shen will decide whether to make a move and how to make a move after the battle breaks out.
He is the pinnacle of stability in the territory, and there is absolutely no room for any mistakes.
If he was knifed by the enemy because of too much waves, it would be a big boat capsized in the gutter.
Although Zong has great confidence in passing the defensive challenge, he keeps in mind the fate of those who underestimate the enemy.
After all, the strength of the enemy this time depends on the overall strength of the territory.
In other words, regardless of the current territory's strong soldiers and strong defenses, all his defenses, props and means will be transformed into the corresponding strength of the enemy.
He looked at the situation in the territory, and the expression on his face changed from relaxed to dignified.
How strong would the enemy be who could break through such a defense with confidence?
Is it the strength of the single body, or the huge number?
He didn't know all of this.
So he will become hesitant, the lack of information is one of the most confidence-sapping situations.
At this time, after a lot of tossing, it was already past eleven o'clock in the morning.
He saw the open space outside the lord's fortress. The farmers had finished their preparations and brought their share of supplies.
The supplies that were originally piled up on the side were taken by the soldiers and the farmers successively, and now they have become empty.
The 500 farmers were also selected ~lightnovelpub.net~ and divided into five teams, going to the four sides of the territory,
The remaining team serves as a mobile support, supporting the side with greater pressure at any time.
The rest of the peasants, under the command of dozens of logistics heroes, entered a large number of refuge cellars scattered around the territory, which formed a special underground circle layer near the fortress.
Under such circumstances, the crowd quickly dispersed.
The scouts sent by the northern outpost had just walked halfway. Because they were worried about Long Wei, they all chose to walk. It seemed that they would not be able to get here before the start of the challenge.
During the last period of time, Zong Shen looked around the situation in all directions, and at the same time opened the storage compartment to check the props.
He has already contacted Aze, and Jiang Yi also took the initiative to contact him.
There is nothing more to explain.
All he has to do is wait in peace!
