Lord of the People: Starting from the Goblins

Chapter 21 Weapon Formula (Part [-])
After getting the location of the suspected teleportation array device, Chen Tao breathed a sigh of relief.

The initiative is now in his hands.

The next step is to discuss weapons and equipment with Tie Jiu.

The first is the equipment of ordinary goblins.

Originally, there were three kinds of weapons: hardwood short spear, hardwood throwing spear, and small iron-clad round shield.

After an actual battle, Chen Tao felt that such a weapon could not play the role of these little guys well.

For example, in Chen Tao's original vision, multiple goblins holding hardwood short spears can hunt monsters, and can also use iron-clad round shields for defense, and goblin spear throwers can suppress them at a long distance.

His idea is correct, but the actual situation is much more complicated.

His combat system is only suitable for the combat method of multiple goblins hunting a single monster. Once encountering a certain scale of monsters like yesterday, the lineup is easily disrupted.

In yesterday's battle, if the Hulk hadn't played a huge role, it is estimated that the Goblin's casualties would have been multiplied several times.

Even if he didn't kill the black-horned deer king in the first place and let it use signals to call other deer herds, I'm afraid... anyway, the result would definitely not be too good.

"My previous thoughts were still too petty. With the development, the combat effectiveness of ordinary goblins is still too weak. My subordinates still use big goblins as their main combat effectiveness, and their tactics must gradually develop towards the regular army."

Chen Tao pondered.

Since it was decided to use the big goblins as the main combat power, there was no need to make the equipment of ordinary goblins so complicated.

In Chen Tao's mind, the role of ordinary goblins should be for farming, breeding, building territories, and most importantly, breeding offspring.

It is really a waste of productivity to use it to fight monsters.

"Since this is the case, ordinary goblins only need to have a simple self-protection power, and the weapon will be a crossbow!"

Bows and crossbows are different from bows and arrows. Archers need long-term training, strong arm strength, and good bow and arrow equipment. All three are indispensable, otherwise the combat effectiveness will be extremely stretched.

But crossbowmen are different. Crossbowmen rely on equipment the most. Although it takes time to train, compared with bows and arrows, which take several years to form, crossbowmen only need to be equipped with good crossbows. Can quickly form a certain combat effectiveness.

However, compared to powerful archers, the range of crossbowmen is very short, usually only tens of meters, and the upper limit of power also depends on the weapon itself.

But Chen Tao only intended to give ordinary goblins the ability to protect themselves and provide some help when they needed to fight. He didn't intend to give them a strong fighting ability.

This is not something that the weak ones need to worry about. At the same level, the big brother Brin who is much stronger than them is the main force.

After discussing with Tie Jiu, the other party thought for a while and said.

"Compared to the need to go to distant forests to collect a large amount of wood materials, it is more convenient and quicker for me to make weapons such as bows and crossbows. I have a small one-armed hand crossbow with pure mechanical steel brakes here, which is not only light Creatures like goblins can also be used many times, and it is quite simple to get started.

Of course, in contrast, this small hand crossbow is more like a mechanical sleeve arrow. Its power mainly depends on the material used to make goblins can use it many times. As a conventional weapon, the material cannot be made of heavy precision Iron, only ordinary lightweight composite steel can be used. "

Tie Jiu nodded, and happily accepted the change of plan that would relieve the pressure on him to manufacture weapons, and added,

"If it is used by the big goblin, then I suggest that you can use a hand crossbow made of refined iron, but the manufacturing speed will be much slower."

"With a sufficient supply of iron ore, I can manufacture one hundred small steel hand crossbows and each matching thirty small steel crossbow bolts a day at the earliest, but if it is a hand crossbow made of fine iron, then I can only make Thirty and the corresponding fine iron small crossbow bolts."

This speed is really slow on an assembly line, but a single person can produce so many weapons in a day, and he really deserves to be the iron soldier with the title of weapon master.

"I don't know which one is better at forging weapons, the weapon master among the dwarves or the clansman of the iron soldiers." Chen Tao thought to himself.

The number may not be comparable, after all, the Iron Soldiers are open, and there can be more than a dozen mechanical tentacles in their bodies, plus there are mechanical spiders, a powerful assistant that integrates mining and refining.

"Then it's decided like this. The previous weapons are all ignored. The long-range weapons are replaced by steel hand crossbows for ordinary goblins, fine iron hand crossbows for agile goblins, fine iron scimitars, and strength goblins. Lin's full body armor, sawtooth mace, and medium steel shield."

Chen Tao said with a smile.

Iron Nine:.
Seeing Tie Jiu's speechless and headache, Chen Tao coughed and asked, "My friend, I wonder how many of these weapons you can make in a day?"

Tie Jiu was silent for a while, and still said quietly, "Fine iron scimitars and steel shields are simple, and I can make hundreds of them a day, but full-body armor and sawtooth maces can be up to fifty pairs or fifty a day. It is currently the fastest speed I can refine iron ore, if you want to go faster, you need the help of your goblins."

"Also, my friend, I need to clarify one point, that is, although this iron mine is not small, it can only produce a few thousand pairs of refined iron full body armor at most, and any more iron mines will almost be exhausted."

The iron ore content of several thousand pairs of refined iron full body armor?
Chen Tao felt that this amount was enough.

However, he also knew that it was really inappropriate for him to plan to prostitute all the other party's iron ore without paying anything.

After coughing, Chen Tao no longer hides it privately. After all, no matter how naive and simple, he is not a fool.

Don't treat people like fools to pick up wool.

"Tie Jiu, my generous friend, you have helped me so much, to be honest, I really deserve it, but now that I am weak, I can't refuse"

Chen Tao uttered a bunch of nonsense with a sincere look on his face, Tie Hanhan, who was as simple as Tie Jiu, was a little moved.

At the end, Chen Tao looked more solemn and said,
"I intend to directly tell you the next evolutionary formula."

Tie Jiu tilted his head, really shocked.

It really cooperates with the other party because the other party can make itself evolve, but it just thinks that the other party is giving the potion to itself after collecting the materials and configuring the so-called evolution potion, so that it can complete the evolution.

If you give it the formula of the potion, as the iron soldiers who are born masters of weapons, the formulas and methods that can create various powerful weapons are their most precious treasures and secrets, and they will not give it away easily.

For example, the weapons promised to Chen Tao are just ordinary mechanical and steel weapons. It cannot be said that there is no technical content at all, but only a little technical content.
Tie Jiu was always troubled by the quantity Chen Tao requested, not the weapon itself.

Therefore, in the eyes of Tie Jiu, or for the race of the Iron Soldiers, no matter what kind of formula, it is the most fundamental and precious thing.

Not to mention the formula that can make it evolve!
To put it mildly, if it has this formula, it can not only evolve by itself, but also has a high probability of transforming and evolving its companion mechanical life - the mechanical spider, which is of great help to it.

On the other hand, if it encounters other Iron Soldiers in the future, it will be able to obtain a large amount of precious materials and even the precious weapon manufacturing formula of the other party on the condition that the other party evolves.

Some powerful weapon manufacturing formulas can be applied to the Iron Soldiers themselves to make them stronger.

For example, the mechanical tentacles in Tie Jiu's body belonged to his own research and development and transformation, but this kind of extremely practical and rotten research and development, most of the Iron Soldiers tribe will use it, but the strength is different.
