I build an army in a two-dimensional world
Chapter 24 Building the Fortress of More
After encroaching on the territory in the east, a large number of farms appeared, and Wang Fugui's tribe became increasingly prosperous.
The Gorma tribe has always wanted to destroy this small border tribe, but due to fighting with several other southern insect forces, they did not have time to spare.
Wang Fugui took advantage of this opportunity and led the army to capture the Modena mine in one go.
In fact, the Modena mines are garrisoned by a watch army of the Gorma tribe, but there are less than a hundred or so of them.
When the Asal clan and the Shushan clan each led the insect warriors to rush over, they were unable to resist and were quickly captured and taken prisoner.
Wang Fugui himself didn't expect that seizing the Modena mine would be so smooth, so he continued eastward and directly occupied Moore Canyon.
At this point, everything from the Asal Mountains in the north to the Stormlands in the west and Moore Canyon in the east has become the territory of the tribe. The territory of this small border tribe has quadrupled in size.
Wang Fugui knew that he could no longer expand eastward, otherwise Nengzi would not be able to keep up and the army would suffer heavy losses.
The most important thing now is to defend these territories, develop ore resources, and build [Guzi Mining Field] and [Medium-sized Forging Furnace].
Wang Fugui also dispatched a large number of hard workers to build a fortress in Moore Canyon.
The fortress is a combination of a [city wall] and a [sling tower]. It is located in a canyon and is larger than the tribe. The outer foundation has ten layers, which can resist level 2 monsters. There are ten [stone-throwing towers] hidden in the fortress. Once an enemy is found approaching, they can launch foundation stones.
The terrain of Moore is difficult. Once the fortress is built, it will be easy to defend but difficult to attack, and your tribe will be able to develop stably.
Although the effect of the fortress is very significant, its construction is very difficult. It is a huge project and cannot be built in a short time.
During this period, Gorma's army continued to launch intrusions, dispatching more and more troops, and the mighty army rushed towards the Moore Canyon like crazy.
The Asal clan and the Shushan clan fought hard, covering Kulipa's construction of the fortress.
Until one time, the Shushan clan stationed in the canyon did not dare to be careless anymore, and Muhyiddin also became wary.
Because it knew that a familiar aura appeared in the Moore Canyon, that was Mondrui, a level 2 warrior born and raised in the Gorma tribe. Their combat power was not weaker than that of the Shushan worms and humans. Giant Moors.
It seems that the Gorma tribe is really angry and wants to take back the Modena mines and lost territory at any cost. Mondruill approached, intent on destroying the fortifications.
Under the command of Wang Fugui, the hard workers withdrew from Moore Canyon, and the two sides fought fiercely.
The tribe's troops gathered in the canyon, facing the mighty Gorma army, and launched a charge. In this regard, the two sides launched a tug-of-war in Moore Canyon.
The tribe suffered heavy losses while resisting the enemy. Both Bronzebeard of the Asar clan and Muhyiddin of the Shushan clan were injured, and many spearmen died in the canyon.
Fortunately, the tribe had an army of giant mammoths, and after feeding them a large amount of energy, Old Zeratul drove them to charge the enemy in the canyon, and barely managed to repel the enemy after hard battles. Even so, the giant mammoths could not kill those powerful Mondruids.
This is the first time Wang Fugui has seen the true strength of the Gorma tribe. Although they are in the [Stone Age], the strength they have accumulated over a long period of time is very powerful. Otherwise, Gorma would not be able to annex the remaining forces.
Wang Fugui almost devoted all the strength of the entire tribe, while the Gorma tribe shrank its battle lines with other forces and invested a lot of troops in the Moore Canyon.
This is the third war between them and Gorma.
In order to stabilize the war situation, Wang Fugui felt so much pressure that he even had to let the rear continue to transport energy as food for the army.
His tribe paid an extremely heavy price, with nearly a quarter of its troops lost in the canyon. This is a tribal army that took great effort to form.
But he also knew that the road to tribe development and expansion was filled with blood and bones.
And Timon knew the tragedy of the war, and he felt even more heartbroken when he saw the severely damaged tribal army.
Even after delivering Nengzi and Jizi ores to Moore Canyon, he came to Wang Fugui and asked: "Lord, is it really worth it for us to build this fortress?"
"The fortress is very important." Wang Fugui stood behind the still prototype fortress and said: "Our tribe must build the fortress at all costs to firmly control the Moore Canyon! This is the choke point. Once lost, Gorma's army will be destroyed. It will drive straight in, destroying our farms, mining areas, and even into the tribal hinterland."
"But the Gorma tribe has no intention of letting us go, and will continue to send large armies to invade Moore Canyon. Whether it is maintaining the war situation or building a fortress, it consumes a lot of energy. Our tribe does not have much stored energy. .”
"No matter how hard it is, we have to persevere and build the Moore Canyon!" Wang Fugui hesitated slightly and said, "Otherwise, it will be difficult for our tribe to truly rise."
He understood the importance of building a fortress. If the fortress could not be built, the tribe would have to face Gorma's army directly.
On the one hand, the damage caused by head-on confrontation was too great, and the tribe's army was not large enough to withstand such losses.
On the other hand, war continues to consume energy, which will drag the tribe into the quagmire of war and even bring down the tribe's production.
When the fortress was built, the tribe could keep the enemy at bay and easily block them east of More Canyon. Only in this way can the tribe free up resources and population to build a [mining farm] in the Modena mines and truly achieve the goal of a powerful tribe.
Fortunately, the supplies from the Gorma tribe were not timely, so the Mondruids could not fight for a long time, and the peons were taking advantage of the gap to work hard. A large number of hard workers carried the foundations in and out of the fortress, constantly building the largest building in the tribe so far.
Finally, a huge fortress was built.
Its name is Moore's Fortress!
.......
Moore Canyon.
After the construction of the fortress was completed, many coolies were still building camps and other defenses, while Wang Fugui personally led the army to garrison here.
Whether it is a big clan like Asal or Xiushan, or a small clan like Coolipa Spearmen, the losses are serious, but the fighting spirit is always high.
Compared to many forces in Denor Continent, Wang Fugui's tribe is not large in scale, but its social system and smelting technology are incomparable.
The rest of the two-dimensional creatures cannot fully appreciate the wisdom of the lord, unlike the wizard Old Zeratul.
It once wandered among many large tribes, always hiding its identity and never truly surrendering. But it willingly joined such a small border tribe and even recruited giant mammoths for Wang Fugui and fought in all directions.
In its eyes, Wang Fugui is not a simple lord, but a great prophet. Like himself, he firmly believes that there is an end to the world and that gods live there. This is the root reason why the wizard old Zeratul surrendered.
During the days when he followed the lord to fight, old Zeratul always liked to discuss the end of the world and the derived problems with him.
Speaking of which, Wang Fugui used to be an engineer. He used a scientific attitude to explain the basic phenomena of the three-dimensional world to Old Zeratul. However, the most basic things in the three-dimensional world were unbelievable in the eyes of the old insect man. Even It is full of "theology" and "metaphysics" in the two-dimensional world.
This made this old insect man worship the three-dimensional world even more, and he was full of awe. It is a rebellious insect-man wise man who is only obedient to Wang Fugui, and is even somewhat pious.
For a long time, Old Zeratul often talked about the phenomena of the three-dimensional universe with other two-dimensional biological gods.
Of course, it did not really understand Wang Fugui's remarks about the three-dimensional universe, but imposed its own understanding, making it particularly absurd and even wrong. And it won’t be called the three-dimensional universe directly, but the end of the world.
Many two-dimensional creatures were confused when they heard it, but they still believed in this weird statement.
Wang Fugui did not stop Old Zeratul from spreading those false claims, because he found that the tribe's most primitive religious consciousness full of superstition had sprouted.
Because there are many unexplainable phenomena in the two-dimensional world, two-dimensional creatures need some scientific or unscientific explanations. Old Zeratul's absurd doctrine satisfied their instinctive needs and invisibly united the insect race in the tribe.
Even if these statements are wrong, they still work.
Wang Fugui controls the [clan] hierarchy and makes them work for him through profit distribution, but it is flawed. There are barriers between different races and distrust between different clans. Once conflicts arise, the tribe may split. Even if they have won the war with the Gorma tribe, if there is an internal conflict, the tribe will still fall into the abyss.
The emergence of primitive religious consciousness can break down the barriers between different races, eliminate the barriers between different clans, and make tribal rule more stable.
In the following war, if the tribe expands its territory, it will inevitably annex more and more races and forces, and primitive religious consciousness will become even more important.
