Chapter 704 705. Military support
Returning to Padstow City in the Partington plane, every time I came to the crowded central square, the scene here was extremely chaotic. Several main streets intersected around the square, and it became overcrowded...
Think about it six years ago, when the mixed-blood elves’ riots in Padstow City had just ended and the rebels were completely disbanded in Barrier Town. At that time, most of the wooden houses in Padstow City were vacant. The mixed-blood elves in the city Very few, the streets are deserted...
Now, the streets are filled with magic herbal medicine trading houses, filled with mixed-blood elven collectors carrying magic herbs on their backs.
For such a prosperous city of Padstow, road congestion has become a big problem in current urban development.
Fortunately, elves don't like to build houses in forest glades. Except for shops, most wooden houses are built on the tops of trees. In fact, the roads in Padstow city extend in all directions...
It’s just that there are relatively few roads for carriages to travel on.
The place where we met Berkeley was a treehouse teahouse. From here, we can see most of the new town of Padstow City. As for the old town, it is on the other side of the valley. Although this is a valley, the terrain is quite To be gentle, there are lush forests of giant trees everywhere.
It's just that the old city expanded around a tree of life, while the new city is on the hillside opposite the old city. The cities are closely connected. A creek at the bottom of the valley is the most obvious feature of the two cities. dividing line.
"The armaments allocation document has been sent to me. It was personally signed by Earl Swinburne. Currently, these are the only materials stored in the Padstow City warehouse, including whaling heavy crossbows and magic crystal arrows, which need to be applied for. Approximately It will take three weeks to reach Padstow City”
Chief Berkeley sat across from the small square table, holding a cup of hot tea in his hand, and said to Roy.
Roy was writing and drawing on a list quickly...
General Berkeley asked again: "Roy, you applied for so many military supplies, are you preparing to build fortifications in Sun Island Bay?"
Roy said without even raising his head: "Building fortifications in Sun Island Bay is just the first step."
When Berkeley heard Roy's words, he felt a breath in his heart and almost choked him to death...
"Well, no wonder they call you Boss Roy, you look rich and wealthy when you speak."
Roy and Berkeley have known each other for more than six years and can now make some harmless jokes...
"I will transport the first batch of supplies tomorrow. The military supplies you prepared should preferably be filled with a magic airship." Roy raised his head and said to Chief Berkeley, and pushed the detailed list of supplies in front of Chief Berkeley. .
"So urgent?" Chief Berkeley asked.
Roy spread his hands and explained:
"Once the Dark Faceless Legion occupies the western sea, we will lose the last barrier in the southern part of the plane. The Griffin Barrier Mountains and the Sun Island Bay will become new battlefields. Currently, the gray dwarf bandits are outside the Queen Egwene Islands. The island has revealed traces. Although Earl Swinburne did not say it clearly, I know that until the gray dwarf bandits on the Queen Egwene Islands are completely eliminated, the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion may not be able to mobilize troops to reinforce the Partington plane. ”
"The Dark Faceless Officers cannot cross the Griffin Barrier Mountains. I guess that once they come from the western sea, they will definitely land in the Sun Island Bay area, so I plan to build defenses in the Sun Island Bay area."
After Roy said this, he drew a proposed map of Sun Island Bay with a pen on a piece of seagrass paper. Two horn-like mountains stretched out from the land to the sea, just surrounding the sea area, forming a A vast inland bay.
Roy's idea was to build some fortifications on the mountain ridges that looked like two horns to resist the Dark Faceless Army. It seems that this defense project is very large, especially the establishment of dozens of arrow tower-like sentries on the top of the mountains. Each sentry will be a large project.
Berkeley didn't speak, just looked at Roy's scrawled hand-drawn map in silence.
Roy was a little surprised and asked: "Don't you have anything to say?"
Chief Berkeley glanced at Roy and said helplessly: "What else can I say? You built a city on the Pagisto Plateau. Is there anything strange about building fortifications now?"
Roy's eyes suddenly lit up, he stared at the Berkeley Chief and said excitedly:
"What you said...really reminded me that I originally planned to let the mixed elves in the town of Sun Island Bay build these fortifications, but these fortifications take a long time to build. In fact...I should let the Plateau Headhunters The prisoners of war were transferred to Sun Island Bay."
The two chatted until late, mainly to repeatedly confirm the details of the military supplies that would be shipped to Sun Island Bay tomorrow.
There are currently no giant heavy crossbows such as the 'Whaling Heavy Crossbow' in the military supplies warehouse of the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion. After the naval battle between the elves and the Naga tribe, this type of whaling heavy crossbow was stored in the warehouse. It was after a large-scale naval battle with gray dwarf bandits on the Queen Egwene Islands that the 17th Silver Pegasus Legion allowed these whaling heavy crossbows to reappear on the battlefield.
Roy also saw this kind of whaling heavy crossbow on a medium-sized sailing ship in the Queen of Evening Islands, so he applied to the military department for ten whaling heavy crossbows before exploring the western seas.
Now it seems that this kind of whaling heavy crossbow is really effective against the dark faceless warriors...
So Roy thought of placing these whaling heavy crossbows in the defenses of Sun Island Bay.
The biggest losses on the battlefield are arrows. Among the large quantities of military supplies shipped from Padstow City to Sun Island Bay this time, magic arrows account for a large proportion. In addition, there are also standard elf cookies.
For elves, elf biscuits are also one of the most indispensable and important supplies on the battlefield.
The next morning, a large amount of military supplies were successfully loaded onto the ship at the airport terminal. This time, a large number of mixed-blood elven laborers were hired at the airport terminal.
Everyone transported heavy boxes of supplies to the cabin of the magic airship, and discovered that the entire ship was almost entirely loaded with military supplies...
The ship did not accept ordinary passengers to board the ship. Then everyone saw Boss Roy leading a group of men to board the ship in a hurry. Not long after, the magic airship loaded with supplies left the airport terminal and slowly ascended into the clouds.
The mixed elves in Padstow City speculated that there might be another war on the Padstow Plateau, so a large amount of military supplies were transported to the Padstow Plateau.
The mixed-blood elves from the Pagisto Plateau refuted this statement one after another: This statement is simply nonsense. The plateau headhunters on the Pagisto Plateau are all imprisoned in the prisoner-of-war concentration camp in the Plateau City. If they really have this I will never wait until Boss Roy comes back before taking action...
More precise news soon came from the airport terminal in Padstow City. This magic airship carrying a large amount of military supplies was not flying to the plateau city, but flying directly to Sun Island Bay. The elves began to guess, Could there be another war at Sun Island Bay?
