C1274 The Fortifications

Blackhawk's execution is excellent.

Yang Xuan looked around and saw that all the fortifications had been completed according to the blueprint. The size and distance of the fortifications were very accurate.

"Not bad, not bad. Didn't you see that the leader of the Black Eagle still has the potential to be a contractor?"

Yang Xuan smiled and gave Black Eagle a thumbs up.

Everyone had been busy the whole night. They were exhausted, but they were amused by Yang Xuan's teasing.

Black Hawk scratched his head and said, "This is all because of our brothers' ability. I only played the role of a supervisor. But Commander Yang, my brothers and I will definitely listen to your commands. We will do whatever you say."

"However, my brothers and I have a question. What's the use of the holes we built?"

"Commander Yang, please don't take offense. I am a straightforward person. I am bold enough to guess that Commander Yang did this to obstruct the charge of the Leopard Battle Cavalry."

"But the terrain here is wide and open. The Leopard Battle Cavalry are all brave and good at fighting. Digging these holes probably won't work on them."

Faced with the question of the black hawk, Yang Xuan did not show the slightest bit of displeasure. Instead, he nodded and agreed, "That's only natural. If these holes alone are enough to stop the Leopard Battle Cavalry, then, they shouldn't be called Battle Knights anymore. Just change their name to Zhan Zhu. "

Yang Xuan's words amused everyone, but at the same time, Black Hawk was even more puzzled. He asked doubtfully, "Then what did Commander Yang use the night to build these craters for?"

The other tribe leaders also had puzzled looks on their faces.

Although these people's abilities and combat attainment were different, being able to become the tribe leader meant that they had to have some skills of their own.

However, they racked their brains and could not figure out the purpose of these potholes.

The structure of these potholes was very simple. Each pothole was oval in shape, with a diameter of about two meters and a depth of about 1.5 meters.

The only thing that was different from the others was that on the side walls of these potholes, there was a groove that could accommodate two people at the same time. However, no one knew what these grooves were used for.

"Yang Xuan, don't keep us guessing. Hurry up and tell everyone your plan."

Red Sparrow was also very curious about what Yang Xuan wanted to do.

Yang Xuan looked at everyone and said with a faint smile, "Alright, then I won't keep you in suspense. Although these potholes can't effectively block the impact of the Leopard Battle Cavalry, the purpose of building it is indeed to use it to deal with the Leopard Battle Cavalry."

When these words came out, everyone was even more puzzled.

Since it could not affect the Leopard Battle Cavalry, how could they use it to deal with the Leopard Battle Cavalry?

Wasn't this contradictory?

Yang Xuan looked at the puzzled expressions on everyone's faces and continued to explain with a faint smile, "Although these potholes can't directly affect the Leopard Battle Cavalry, we can still process these potholes."

As he spoke, he looked around at the surrounding terrain. Then he said, "This open grassland is much more vigorous than other places. And among these weeds, most of them are wide-leaved plants. "

"Due to the geographical location and altitude of the Buddhist Kingdom, the environment here is much more unique than other places."

"Most of the areas here are frozen earth. Plants grow on the frozen earth, and the nutrients obtained will be greatly reduced."

"Therefore, the weeds growing in the frozen earth will grow slowly, and their life force will be extremely strong. Most of them are vines with well-developed roots."

"As for the wide-leaved plants, because they require a large amount of nutrients and grow very quickly, they are very rare in the frozen earth area."

"And most of the plants in this area not only grow very vigorously, but also mainly the wide-leaf-type plants."

"There is only one reason, and that is that the soil here is far more fragile and loose than other places. It's beneficial for the roots of plants to grow quickly, and maximize the nutrients they get from the soil. Therefore, the plants here are naturally very different from other places. "

Yang Xuan's words made everyone nod their heads in agreement.0

Although these tribe leaders were all very talented, because of their growing environment, their knowledge was rather limited.

They were even more lacking in geological knowledge and plant knowledge. After hearing what Yang Xuan said, they understood the reason behind this.

"Commander Yang, what you said makes sense. It's all university questions. We have also increased our knowledge. However, what does this have to do with war?"

Black Hawk scratched his head and asked doubtfully. The rest of the people were also confused. They had the same question in their hearts as Black Hawk.

Yang Xuan glanced at the crowd, then lifted his foot and stomped on the ground. He smiled at the crowd and said, "How can the soft soil make him softer?"

Everyone was stunned. Little Ghost Zap was the first to react. "With water bubbles, the soil soaked will become softer."

"That's right. This is the core of our battle!"

Yang Xuan looked at the hundreds of holes that had been dug into the ground through the night. Like chess pieces on the chessboard, he said. "The soil here is soft and loose. If you soak it in the soil... It'll turn into a puddle of mud."

"And the soft mud must be the greatest bane of war horses. Even if the Red Rabbit Horse encountered mud, it would instantly become a cripple."

After Yang Xuan said this, everyone did not feel happy or excited. Instead, they had a difficult expression on their faces, as if they wanted to say something but wanted to say something.

"Everyone, if you have any ideas, you can boldly say it. Speak freely."

Yang Xuan said.

Black Hawk frowned and said, "Commander Yang, we all know that war cavalry are afraid of mud, but since it's mud, we need a large amount of water to soak it."

"The nearest water source is about ten kilometers away. If we rely on transportation water sources, I'm afraid it will take a few months to completely soak this place."

The others also nodded in agreement, and the hope in their eyes turned into disappointment.

They were willing to think that Yang Xuan would come up with some wonderful idea, but they did not expect it to be in vain in the end.

There was indeed no problem with his idea, but where did the water come from?

"Yang Xuan, your idea might not work."

Even Red Sparrow thought that Yang Xuan's tactic had neglected an important part and said. "The terrain of the Buddhist Kingdom of Kṣitigarbha is different from other places. There aren't many sources of water here. It's virtually impossible to transport the water here and soak the entire land in it."

Yang Xuan smiled faintly and did not directly answer the other party's question. Instead, he said with a smile, "Since we can't transport so many water sources over during this period of time, we can only rely on the local resources."

"Local resources?"

Everyone was confused and did not understand what Yang Xuan was trying to do.
