There was uncertainty in Luo Ji's tone. The structure of the sling was indeed simple, but it wasn't something that other barbarians could learn just by looking at it!

"By the way, Patriarch, the slings in the hands of the Barbarian Bear tribe seem to be different from those of our tribe." Looking at Luo Ji who was lost in thought, Ye Shan, who seemed to have remembered something, hastily added.

"Not the same?"

"Yes." Ye Shan nodded, "The sling in their hands seems to be made of bark rope."

There is absolutely more than one way to make a sling. In the final analysis, as long as you understand the principle, you can do whatever you want, and bark rope is of course also possible. Therefore, the key here is the difficulty.

Their tribe also has bark ropes, which Luo Ji learned before going offline to check the information, and used them to replace the original tree vines. Although the weaving technique is not very complicated, it is not something that the indigenous people in ancient times could do at once. It was even more impossible for a group of ancient aborigines to think of it, let alone weave bark rope into a sling.

Thinking of this, Luo Ji's eyelids twitched, and he came to his senses, "When Liu Zheng searched for the corpses of the intruders, he didn't find the weapons they left behind at all. Looking at the current situation, they were picked up by the people of the Barbarian tribe. ..."

Realizing this, Luo Ji couldn't help stretching out his hand to rest his forehead, "I'm really entering a period of bad luck now."

Taking a deep breath, Luo Ji's eyes fell on Ye Shan again, "Anyway, you'll stay in the tribe for the next few days to recuperate, and at the same time, I'll send someone over to teach you how to use bows and arrows."

Obviously, looking at this development trend, it is estimated that the sling will spread among the barbarians in a short time. Although the sling will become less effective when used to deal with some rough-skinned and thick-skinned beasts, but using it When it comes to dealing with people, the lethality is unquestionable. One heavy blow is enough to bleed people's heads. The threat caused cannot be underestimated. Luo Ji felt that he had to prepare early.

If you want to weaken the threat of the sling, there is a simple way. The first way is to build a helmet. As long as you protect your fragile head, although the blunt attack of the stone bullet will hurt other parts of the body, it will not hurt you. Not too fatal.

The second way is to make shields, shields and armor, which are probably the two most famous armors in the cold weapon era.

However, according to Luo Ji's current situation where he has no metal ore, no forging equipment, and no forging method, don't count on metal helmets. Wolf bone masks do have a certain defensive power, but the number is limited, and there are still It can only block one side, and in this way, the shield has become his best choice in the current situation.

In the past, shields were not needed at all, so time and energy were not wasted on this matter, but now, with the proliferation of long-range weapons, the demand for shields will obviously increase significantly.

The styles and types of shields are more or less. As a fan of strategy war games, Luo Ji naturally understands them. After all, this will affect the defense and action capabilities of various arms, so let’s roughly distinguish them. , can be divided into three types, large shield, medium shield and small shield...

Small shields generally refer to small round shields, also known as fighting shields, which are very light and small in size, suitable for one-on-one single-handed combat, but not very suitable for warfare.

A large shield, commonly known as a door panel, actually looks like a door panel. It is very large and seriously affects the ability to move. It is suitable for arming heavy armor and advancing large-scale troops.

After such a simple screening, Luo Ji's next choice was ready to come out, and that was a medium-sized shield that was neither too big nor too small.

After confirming the choice, the production of the medium-sized shield does not need to bother Michelle Ye who is researching the three-bow bed crossbow. It is not a complicated thing in itself. Just call Liu Shu and the others, and then prepare the materials, and the work can start. ...

The shape of the entire shield is determined to be a round shield, and the material is made of wood. The main reason is that there is no other good choice. The handle is placed on the inside, and the outside side should have a curvature, which can better relieve force. At the same time, considering the overall The outer surface is covered with a layer of tough hard leather, which can not only make it stronger, but also increase its defensive ability to a certain extent.

With Luo Ji's guidance from the side, a round leather shield with a simple structure was quickly formed...

System prompt: Congratulations to player 'Luo Ji' for successfully making 'Round Leather Shield'

Not paying attention to the system prompts that sounded in his mind, Luo Ji took the finished round leather shield and gestured in his hand. Although it was made of wood, they deliberately adjusted the thickness of the shield in consideration of its defensive capabilities. It took a lot of work, so it still holds a lot of weight in your hand.

After trying the feel, Luo Ji held the round leather shield in his hand, and then put on a posture to resist the attack, "Take a stone spear and attack me, I want to test the defensive power of this leather shield .”

As soon as Luo Ji said this, everyone in the Ordnance Department was taken aback on the spot. They saw that one person, at this moment, put on a posture of watching his nose, nose, nose, nose, and heart in an unusually tacit understanding and remained silent. What are you kidding?That's the leader, who dares?No one dared to test the defensive power of the leather shield.

Faced with this situation, Luo Ji was also speechless. Liu Shu and the others' concerns were well known to him, but he wasn't bragging. With the strength of the people in the Ordnance Department, he could easily overthrow several warlords by himself. indivual.

"Don't bother me, Liu Shu, it's you! Hurry up!"

Liu Shu, whose name was called out by Luo Ji, was about to cry at this moment, "Patriarch, you should use another person to take the shield. If you take the shield, the subordinates dare not do it!"

Chapter 1, new equipment and new arms!

To put it bluntly, Luo Ji finally convinced Liu Shu. At this point in time, the other warriors in the tribe were either performing missions or patrolling the periphery. Calling them back would have wasted a lot of time going back and forth. That's necessary. As for letting ordinary tribesmen try it, they are really easy to get hurt, and at the same time, they can't try the effect of this round leather shield.

Looking at Liu Shu, who was holding a stone spear and his legs were trembling, as if he was about to go to the execution ground, Luo Ji rolled his eyes and said, "Okay, stand on your feet, keep your waist low. , stab harder, otherwise how can we test the effect?"

At this moment, Liu Shu was about to cry, "Patriarch, really, I mean the truth, you should find another person! If I take the shield, you can do the stabbing!"

"Come on, what effect can you use the shield to test with your two moves? Don't forget, the patriarch, I have a wolf bone mask anyway!"

Hearing this, Liu Shu was taken aback. Yes, although it has developed to this point, the general battle does not require their patriarch to charge in person, but in the early days, when their tribe first wandered here, their patriarch was also killed by the tribe. One of the warriors who had died from hungry wolves and was qualified to wear a wolf bone mask.

Theoretically speaking, according to his two blows, their patriarch should be able to beat him with one hand until he can't take care of himself. However, no matter what the reason is, Liu Shu, who has a strong will to survive, said that "Sure enough, change someone!!"

Then he was ruthlessly rejected by Luo Ji...

Liu Shu, who had been driven off the shelf, finally bit the bullet and stabbed the spear in his hand towards Luo Ji's position, which caused a burst of exclamation from the Ordnance Department, not because of how hard Liu Shu's spear pierced, Everyone exclaimed that Liu Shu had the guts to do it!

Looking at Luo Ji, on the other hand, he was much calmer, because as I said before, according to Liu Shu's two actions, even if Luo Ji was unarmed, Liu Shu would not be able to pose much threat to him.

Seeing clearly where the stone spear was piercing, Luo Ji stepped forward before the stone spear reached his face, raised the round leather shield in his hand, and went forward to meet it.

Afterwards, only a muffled sound of 'dong' was heard, and he felt the momentum from the circular leather shield. Even though he could block it hard, but in order to test the design of the shield, Luo Ji still moved one step at a time, and then Immediately connected to a shield counter action!

Luo Ji's sudden move caught Liu Shu by surprise. At that time, he only felt a sharp pain in his hands holding the stone spear. When he recovered, the stone spear in his hand had already been smashed by Luo Ji. The shield flew out.

Staring at his trembling hands in a daze, Liu Shu had no idea what happened at that moment, and the surrounding crowd were also completely shocked by the strength of their patriarch at this moment.

But Luo Ji didn't care about that. After blocking Liu Shu's spear directly with his shield, he quickly checked the surface of the round leather shield. Facing the attack of the stone spear, the surface of the shield was almost intact!The layer of leather that wraps the surface definitely plays a big role.

"Hahahaha..." Thinking of this, Luo Ji patted the shield and couldn't help laughing. He was really satisfied with this defensive ability, "Liu Shu, from now on, the Ordnance Department will do its best to make this shield. For the round leather shield, on the premise of ensuring the quality, first make ten round leather shields."

Luo Ji's order to make a round leather shield came suddenly, but fortunately the structure of the round leather shield is not complicated. Even if it is a temporary order, as long as there are enough materials for making it, Liu Shu and others can fully cope with it.

Of course, this whole process was not all smooth sailing. The main trouble lies in the reform of the troops in the tribe. At present, the troops under Luo Ji's command can be roughly divided into four types: stone axemen, stone spearmen, archers, and slingers. The appearance of the leather shield obviously had an impact on the four temporarily fixed arms, and the most affected one was the Stone Spearman.

Anyone who has played strategy war games basically knows that in most strategy war games, spearmen or pikemen are used to attack cavalry, which is the so-called restraint of arms, and wait for the cavalry on the opposite side to charge up all the way. , and then let the spearmen swing to meet the formation, and with the momentum of the cavalry rushing over by themselves, they can cause a devastating blow to them.

But now the problem is coming, in ancient times, there is no cavalry now...

Therefore, under the influence of this entire era and the natural environment, the initial appearance of stone spearmen was not to attack cavalry, but simply to increase the attack distance.

However, the advantage of the stone spearman's attack distance was gradually lost with the successive appearance of the stone slinger and the archer, and his status in this era became more and more embarrassing. Now, the round leather shield invented by Luo Ji can be described as Deal a fatal blow to the Stone Spearmen.

The reason is very simple, that is, it cannot be equipped, or it is not easy to use, a round leather shield in one hand, and a stone spear in the other?It's quite harmonious in my mind, but it's really not ordinary twists and turns when I use it.

Luo Ji even tried it himself. The length advantage of the stone spear itself became the biggest burden when one needs to hold the shield with one hand. It is conceivable how weak the lethality will be if the hand stabs.

In this way, in the hunting team, the role of the stone spear may be quite large, but in the current tribal army, the stone spearman is already facing the fate of being eliminated.

After thinking about this matter in his mind, Luo Ji immediately decided that, except for Luo Yong and Liu Zheng, all melee fighters in the tribe should be equipped with leather armor, round leather shields, and one-handed stone axes. Axeman!

Two or three days later, a team of fully armed shield axemen stood there neatly. The battle looked mighty and domineering. For this ancient era, a brand new type of arms was officially born at this moment.

At the same time, Luo Ji, who had received two military points one after another, acted simply at this time. This time, he finally upgraded the "equipment production" item that he had snubbed several times.

After all, he can already clearly feel that if they continue to develop, their tribe's requirements for the efficiency of equipment production will become higher and higher!

At the same time, with the birth of the Shield Axe Soldiers, the counterattack against the Barbarian Bear tribe should also begin. Thinking of this, a gleam of coldness flashed in Luo Ji's eyes, "Calculating the time, the effect of the free card is less than half away In a few months, it seems necessary to impress the natives of the Bear Tribe!"

Chapter 1, Demonstration

The cold wind was blowing, and in the howling wind in early spring, there was still a faint chill mixed in. A group of figures exuding chilling intentions killed the barbarian tribe located on the other side of the plain in such a grandiose manner!Unreservedly demonstrated their strength and domineering!

When the savage bear tribe was attacked, there was a commotion in the camp, and then a group of barbarians also armed with weapons rushed out of it, and formed a line of defense outside the tribal camp to resist the invasion.

Standing on a high ground not far away, looking at the barbarian tribe's outer defense line, Luo Ji's eyes flickered coldly. Although he brought the archer team over this time, he didn't want to use them all. What they meant was that he was here to demonstrate, and at the same time, he wanted to use the people of the Barbarian tribe as a test stone to test the strength of his team of shield ax soldiers!

Leaving aside the two soldiers who were in charge of guarding the Black Rock Tribe, at this moment, facing the onslaught of the Barbarian Tribe, with Liu Zheng as a sharp knife, the fifteen shield and ax soldiers were fearless, and each of them was ready to go, waiting for Luo Ji to attack. One order.

"Do it!" Luo Ji activated the 'morale booster' skill without hesitation to further enhance their combat power through the addition of morale.

In an instant, the shield ax soldiers who had received the order to do it took the lead, and with the roar of the word 'kill', those figures directly charged towards the defense line of the Barbarian tribe. Shocked, even the wild bear tribe, which has always been used to being arrogant, felt like being crushed by the opponent at this moment.

I didn't have time to think about it, so I quickly took out the big killer that I accidentally got some time ago, the sling!

Behind the line of defense, the slings in the hands of the Barbarian Bear Tribe's slingers began to spin at high speed. At first glance, it looked like a trick, but as soon as they shot, they attracted the five bows and arrows behind Luo Ji. The hand sneered for a while, the accuracy was really bad. You must know that these five archers were also transformed from slingers, so they naturally knew how difficult it is to practice the sling.

Like they did at the beginning, they trained intensively every day, and after more than half a month of training, they had a little confidence in their accuracy. The Barbarian tribe obviously didn't have that condition. Hit a few times.

Facing the stone bullets that were almost flying head-on, the shield-axe soldier did not panic, and his face was full of calmness. In order to let them skillfully use the round leather shield in his hand, Luo Ji specially formulated a series of training plans. In addition to simple offensive and defensive exercises, a team of people was specially recruited to simulate the attack of the sling, throwing stones at them forcefully, and asked them to block the stones one by one with the round leather shield in their hands open.

Due to the relatively limited training time, it cannot be said how well they have practiced, but the feeling and awareness of parrying long-range attacks have already been trained!

I saw the shield ax soldier quickly block the round leather shield on his left hand in front of him, and then, with the sound of stone bullets hitting the surface of the leather shield, his eyes looked at the round shield The stone bullets flying in the face, at that moment, seemed to announce that the era ruled by long-range arms was completely gone!

The two groups of men and horses instantly fought together, and the well-trained shield and ax soldiers moved neatly. While parrying the attack with the round leather shield in their hands, the stone ax held tightly in their right hand mercilessly chopped at the opponent. On that fragile neck!

The scene of flying flesh and blood created a unilateral massacre!As soon as this brand-new unit appeared, they showed their powerful dominance on the battlefield, as if announcing the rise of a new generation of battlefield kings. Just like Luo Ji always said, dealing with the barbarian tribe was his biggest problem. It's never about whether you can win or not, but whether you can swallow it or not.

Luo Jin, who made that judgment at the beginning, would never have imagined that their patriarch could form such a powerful shield axe troop in such a short period of time!

Seeing the warriors in his tribe fall down one after another, as the leader of the Barbarian Bear tribe, Violent Bear was shocked and angry. He wanted to do something, but he was stalked by this man wielding a strange weapon in front of him. You can't move freely at all.

"Get out of here!" With a roar, the violent bear at this time is fiercely attacking, really worthy of his name, just like a humanoid violent bear!

Faced with such power, Liu Zheng naturally did not dare to be careless. He waved the axe in his hand, and after a while of fighting, he secretly marveled at the strength of Violent Bear. The two faced each other one-on-one. , I am afraid that there is no winner or loser at all, and all Liu Zheng can do now is probably to entangle this humanoid bear!

"A violent bear who has hunted black bears? Looks like it's not for nothing..." Luo Ji squinted his eyes. People in this era adorn their bodies with trophies to show their strength and deter other barbarians. Therefore, a violent bear wearing a black bear fur can be said to be quite conspicuous. By the way, although Luo Ji was wearing a leather armor at this time, he was still wearing a coat made of saber-toothed tiger fur. Overcoat, with a pair of saber-toothed daggers pinned to his waist as self-defense weapons, the whole person looks quite powerful as a ruler.

At this time, Luo Ji was not in a hurry at all. He admitted that the strength of the violent bear was worthy of being the most powerful overlord tribe in the original area. I can rule the entire area around here for a longer time, but it's a pity that I met him...

This is a war!Rather than a single duel where only one person's strength can dominate the outcome, apart from the outstanding Violent Bear, the defeat of the other members of the Barbaric Bear Tribe is a foregone conclusion.

Facing the fiercely advancing Shield Axe Soldiers, they were powerless to resist. After three waves of offensives, they were directly killed back to the tribal camp behind.

Violent Bear saw that all his subordinates had been killed and retreated. If he continued to fight with Liu Zheng, he would only be surrounded by the shield and ax soldiers on the opposite side, and he would definitely die at that time. How could Violent Bear who realized this be willing to die so willingly? ?He broke out in a hurry, and after a forceful fight with Liu Zheng, he saw an opportunity and quickly retreated into the camp.

After the opponent retreated, Liu Zheng and the Shield Axemen did not continue to pursue it. This was something Luo Ji had told him long ago. But he didn't intend to use the elite of his tribe to play consumption with the miscellaneous soldiers on the opposite side, let alone at this point in time, the effect of the free card disappears, but there is only less than a week left.

Therefore, the purpose of his trip is to demonstrate the strength of their tribe, and give the Barbarian tribe a severe blow. While letting the other party know what will happen to them if they offend them, it will also let the other party in the future. Nei was honest and didn't dare to provoke them again. This way, Luo Ji could concentrate on dealing with the players who might invade in the future.

Chapter 1, Do you think it's funny or not?

In the barbarian tribe's camp, all the tense tribal fighters wondered why they didn't chase them in. Although they didn't want to admit it, they had to admit that the guys in front of them were very strong. !Very strong!They were wearing strange clothes that they had never seen before, and they had never seen a weapon in the other hand, which could be attacked by stone bullets and weapons.

Although it seemed that they had the upper hand in terms of numbers, the reality was extremely cruel. The moment they collided with each other, the whole war had turned into a one-sided massacre with just one encounter!

The savages of the Barbarian tribe were extremely nervous. At this moment, they were as frightened as birds. Every slight movement of the shield axemen made them terrified.

However, what they were worried about didn't happen. They saw that the team of shield axe soldiers blocking the outside of their tribal camp quickly separated on both sides. For the barbarians who were born in primitive society, the overly neat standing was very important. It has never been seen before, but it has an inexplicable power.

Afterwards, I saw a figure walking out from the teams on both sides of the separation. The clothes on that person were very similar to those of the Shield Axemen. The only difference should be the animal skin on the outside and the waistband. A pair of saber-toothed daggers.

With a pair of eyes fixed on the pair of saber-toothed daggers, the violent bear's breathing became a little quicker inadvertently. Apart from the saber-toothed tiger as the ancient overlord, he really couldn't think of another Which beast owns it!

As this idea arises, the originally inconspicuous animal fur coat also becomes conspicuous. If you look closely, isn't that the fur of a saber-toothed tiger?This man in front of him actually killed a saber-toothed tiger? !

With just a change of thought, that man walking slowly has already caused a huge psychological pressure on Violent Bear!And at this moment, the voice of the other party rang in his ear, "You are the leader of the Barbaric Bear Tribe, Violent Bear, right?"

There was a slow and orderly tone in the other party's voice, just listening to this voice, even seemed a little weak, it was really hard for people to associate him with the word 'powerful', but how strong are the fighters under the other party? Strong, he has witnessed with his own eyes, a man who can make so many powerful fighters submit to him cannot be a weak person!

With the flash of such a thought, Violent Bear took two deep breaths, calmed down his irritable mood, and then said in a deep voice, "Yes, I am Violent Bear, the leader of the Barbaric Bear Tribe! Leader, answer my question, why did you invade our Bear Tribe!?"

At the end, there was a hint of anger in Violent Bear's voice. In the previous battle, a large number of soldiers from the Barbarian Bear Tribe died in battle, and the bodies are still lying outside the tribe, dripping with blood!

But Luo Ji couldn't help laughing when he heard this. This undoubtedly made the violent bear who was trying to suppress his anger even more irritating, "What's so funny?!"

"It's funny, of course it's funny." Ignoring the violent bear's anger, Luo Ji tilted his head, and his tone was still so slow, it was so slow that it made people feel irritated, "You better clarify one thing for me , Violent Bear, a few days ago, people from your tribe attacked our tribe's hunting team, not only wounded my men, but also snatched their prey..."

Halfway through Luo Ji's words, Violent Bear's face changed. In this era, it is common for people from different tribes to fight for prey. It can only be said that everyone is in order to survive.

But in the past, their Barbarian tribe was the strongest tribe in the entire nearby area. Who would dare to fight like this?It never occurred to him that before he knew it, the people under his hand kicked such a piece of iron, which caused the big trouble in front of him!

Luo Ji didn't care what was going on in Violent Bear's mind, he still maintained his rhythm, and spoke slowly, "I hurt my people, and then snatched the prey, and now you ask me why I invaded you ? Do you think it's funny?"

Facing Luo Ji's question, Violent Bear had a serious face. How would he respond to this?Unable to utter a single word, the Violent Bear at this moment has personally experienced what it means to be stronger than others, so he just kept silent.

Luo Ji didn't care much about the bear's silence. To him, as long as the goal can be achieved, it doesn't matter. "Two days, I'll give you two days, prepare ten roe deer, or the same prey, Count it as an apology, and in this way, the matter of you hurting my subordinates will be over..."

"Ten roe deer?! And there are only two days left? This..." After hearing Luo Ji's request, Violent Bear was shocked and angry, but he was interrupted by that slow voice in the middle of his sentence. up...

"I'm not discussing with you."

That gentle and calm tone made people breathless, Violent Bear's entire face was almost flushed with blood, but he couldn't hold back a single word, as if he had lost the ability to speak.

"Today is just a warning. Don't challenge my patience, let alone question my decision. Otherwise, it won't be more than a warning when you come back next time." While speaking, Luo Ji raised his hand and stood on both sides of him. Luo Yong, Liu Zheng and the archer team in the rear immediately came into Violent Bear's sight.

"Are you kidding me? Just like that, isn't it all his strength?!" The momentary despair was like pouring a bucket of ice water on his head, making the bloody face of Violent Bear's blood flushed due to excessive anger disappear all of a sudden. He was bloody and pale, and he didn't want to believe this fact, but there was a voice in his mind that kept telling him it was true!

Not to mention the five people standing behind who hadn't made a move before, just let's talk about the two people standing next to Luo Ji. Liu Zheng's strength, he has experienced it before, and the two of them can be said to be difficult to fight. However, Luo Yong on the other side was the same as those five people. He didn't make a move from the beginning to the end, but he was able to stand on an equal footing with Liu Zheng, which was enough to explain a lot of problems.

Ignoring the pale bear, Luo Ji turned and left. After walking a few steps, he bent down and picked up a stone spear from the corpse of a barbarian, "I almost forgot ..."

While speaking, Luo Ji turned his wrist, and then with one force, he inserted the entire spearhead into the soil at his feet, "From today onwards, with this stone spear as the boundary, in this area, the land beyond the stone spear , is my territory..."

Speaking of which, from the beginning to the end of today, Luo Ji, who had always been acting slowly, had an earth-shaking change in his aura in an instant. The feeling was like a lion that had been sleeping for a long time. He opened his eyes, revealing his ferocious fangs, "Trespassers will be killed without mercy!!!"

Chapter 1 and five, actively preparing for battle

After a hearty victory, the morale of the soldiers under Luo Ji's command rose all the way, almost reaching full value. Faced with this situation, Luo Ji thought carefully, and before the player invasion came, let the soldiers under his command fight a battle. A big victory, and it seems good to mention morale. Besides, just now, he seems to have comprehended another skill.

He casually opened his attribute panel, and after looking down for a while, a new skill came into his eyes...

"The War to Protect the Nation..." Luo Ji whispered the name of this new skill, and Luo Ji quickly focused on the skill description.
