Chapter 25 Be a ruthless man
Of course, even if Qin Xuan wants to build a wall, he will not use wooden walls like the giants. This thing is too conspicuous!
Qin Xuan opened the storage ring and took out a bow from it!
Sun-Chasing Bow, this thing was "captured" from Bai Yutian, and it came in handy today.
There were only ten arrows in the quiver, which was a bit small, but it didn't matter, it was enough for Qin Xuan to test his tactics.
Qin Xuan tied a piece of rag to the arrowhead, and then dipped some kerosene from the jar.
Instructing the fishman to light the arrow, Qin Xuan pulled up the sun-chasing bow and shot at the wooden city wall at the foot of the hillside.
"Bang!" The sharp arrow roared and stabbed deeply into the giant's wooden city wall.
The kerosene stained on the cotton cloth splashed on the wooden wall, causing a fierce fire in an instant.
The giant stood on the top of the city and found that the city wall below was on fire. He hurriedly stabbed the burning area with his spear to extinguish the fire, but it had no great effect. The more he stabbed the city wall with his spear, the more ferocious the flames below became.
Later, the giant who put out the fire poured water on it for more than ten times before he was able to put out the fire.
Mermaid Tolan asked: "Sir, why don't you fire a few more arrows, so that you can burn down their city wall!"
"It's useless!" Qin Xuan shook his head and sighed, "We only have ten arrows in total. Even if we discharge all ten arrows, we still can't completely burn down the city wall. The giant will put out the fire soon!"
"That's such a shame. If we had 100 arrows, we could burn down their walls!"
"It doesn't matter!" Qin Xuan waved his hand and said, "We can quickly make a batch of bows and arrows to destroy the giant's wooden city wall!"
The manufacturing process of bows and arrows is actually very simple, and even a child can make it in a house.
But for children to play house, the most they can do is launch a wooden stick dozens of meters away, and it has no substantial lethality.
For bows and arrows to be lethal, they must be manufactured according to military standards.
Bows manufactured in strict accordance with formal standards have very high requirements for craftsmanship. A high-quality strong bow can be pulled by human power, and its range can reach hundreds of meters, with huge lethality.
For Qin Xuan, there is no need to go to so much trouble. Just make some simple bows and arrows with a range of forty or fifty meters.
The giant's only long-range attack method is to throw a spear. The giant is strong and can throw the spear over a distance of more than 30 meters.
As long as the range of Qin Xuan's bow exceeds the distance of the giant's throwing spear, it can destroy the giant's wall at a safe distance.
The previous siege battle had wiped out all the low-level cannon fodder soldiers. There were not many troops left, so Qin Xuan had to save some.
On the one hand, Qin Xuan asked his orc warriors to make their own bows and arrows. On the other hand, Qin Xuan used flying pigeons to send messages to Sai Xishi to purchase a batch of finished bows and arrows from Yundian City.
Moreover, Qin Xuan also made a list for Sai Xishi and asked Sai Xishi to get himself a batch of supplies according to the list.
Qin Xuan wants to initially develop his own "industrial" system. Of course, most of the initial industries are military industries.
According to the original idea, Qin Xuan just wanted to settle down in a corner, get some snow grains to sell, and become a wealthy man steadily.
But the cruel reality is before his eyes. Qin Xuan has clearly realized that in this wild world, the more peaceful he is, the less safe he is. Everyone must realize how powerful he is before they can
Will remain in awe of myself!
That night, the orc soldiers made more than 200 bows and more than 500 feather arrows.
Early the next morning, Sai Xishi came over in person. She brought 50 strong bows and 1,000 sharp arrows to Qin Xuan!
These powerful bows and arrows are all made by the armory of the city lord's palace, and their power is the same as the bows and arrows used by the city defense army.
A 50-meter bow can shoot an arrow through five millimeters of iron armor!
After the meeting, Sai Xishi immediately started to complain again: "I said, you kid, can't you let me have some peace of mind? Last time we agreed on a stable supply, but for several days in a row, a batch of goods has not been delivered to me.
past!"
Qin Xuan said bluntly: "I have prepared the goods. There are many in the warehouse, but I can't go over to deliver the goods to you anymore!"
"Why?"
"Last time I went to deliver something to you, my nest was taken away by those beasts. If there is a shortage in the future, you can send someone to deliver it yourself!"
"But I..." Sai Xishi frowned and sighed, "Okay, I'll come and transport the goods myself!"
The wild world is a lawless world. The only place with a little bit of order is Yundian City, but as soon as you leave the gate of Yundian City, all restraints are lost.
Snow grains are valuable materials. If Sai Xishi sends his men to transport tens of thousands of kilograms of snow grains, if the people under his control see the money and run away, it will cause immeasurable losses to Sai Xishi.
There was no other way for Sai Xishi to escort the goods herself, which would increase her workload.
But so far, there seems to be no other better way.
"By the way, you suddenly purchased so many bows and arrows. Is there any big move?"
I was ready to leave, but when I saw the bows and arrows all over the ground, Sai Xishi couldn't help but ask one more question.
Qin Xuan replied solemnly: "Of course there is a major action. From now on, everything within a 40-mile radius will be my territory. I have to drive out all the aliens who disobey my orders from my territory!"
"A radius of 40 miles!" Qin Xuan's grand ambitions shocked Sai Xishi, "Are you mistaken? Your sphere of influence is about to extend to Yundian City!"
Qin Xuan asked in confusion: "Isn't Yundian City 100 miles away?"
"Yun Dian City is 100 miles away, but Yundian City's sphere of influence includes places within 50 miles around the city. Your sphere of influence has expanded by 40 miles, which is only a dozen or so miles away from Yundian City's range of strength.
It’s gone!”
"What are you afraid of? A dozen miles is a large buffer area, and there can be no conflict!"
Sai Xishi smiled bitterly and said: "You probably don't know much. The reason why Yundian City did not continue to expand its sphere of influence to the seaside is because it wanted to leave a buffer zone for the Sea Clan to avoid conflict with the Dragon King's forces!"
"You are now expanding your territory around the coastline, which will definitely cause changes in the surrounding forces. The situation may exceed your expectations!"
"We'll talk about the future later. Since my current goals have been set, I won't back down from the battle!"
