Here in the canyon, griffin nests won't be built. It's not yet time to openly use creatures like dragonhawks. Even if dragonhawk knights are trained, they'll be kept hidden. It's better to save some resources.
As for the other troop types, Galen plans to integrate the buildings he has on hand to clearly define the division of labor for each base.
After completing the integration, there will be another lottery draw. This is the reward from the Origin Core for the base soldiers completing a campaign.
Quickly arranging everything in the canyon, Galen closed his eyes, his mental power connecting to the Origin Core, and entered the base view.
First, he looked at the base's population.
At this time, a month had passed since the level two main building upgrade, adding two thousand eight hundred and eighty new farmers and soldiers.
Currently, among the base population under Galen's command, there are more than eight thousand five hundred farmers, seven thousand two hundred musketeers and infantry combined, a small squad of twenty-four priests, twenty-four wizards, thirty airships, twelve mortar squads, and eighteen dragonhawk knights.
Every time he sees his population increase, he feels an indescribable joy!
Secretly rejoicing for a while, Galen looked at the various sub-bases. Throughout the Arathi Highlands, with Omar and the others recruiting soldiers everywhere, and Galen sending infantry to follow, the map has basically been scanned by the Origin Core.
Currently, Galen's sphere of influence is all in the eastern part of the Arathi Highlands.
Hammerfall in the northeast corner, Canyon, Minas Tirith in the southeast corner, and the Land of Origin.
Canyon and the Land of Origin have the same function, both belonging to the military base type. In addition to collecting resources, they are mainly responsible for producing troops.
However, the types of troops trained in the two places are different. The main buildings in Canyon are the double workshop and double barracks, while the Land of Origin has the double barracks and the Altar of Kings. Galen plans to add two Arcane Sanctums today, specifically for producing wizards.
Moreover, these two places are inside the Alterac Mountains, which is very secretive and conducive to hiding troops.
As for Hammerfall and Minas Tirith, these two towns are what Galen will put on the surface in the future.
Hammerfall, in addition to a symbolic town hall, has no other buildings for training troops, only a large number of base farms.
This place is a new grain-producing area in the kingdom's plan. This project is a large project and was brought up at the kingdom meeting. I don't know how many nobles will pay attention to it.
After Galen intercepted the project, someone will definitely be watching every move here in secret. Therefore, the grain-producing area must become worthy of its name, at least on the surface there must be a large amount of grain produced.
As for spies?
In the base farm area north of Hammerfall, Galen built a circle of defense towers. After upgrading the magic sentry technology, it can detect invisible units. One prowler comes, shoot one, two come, shoot two.
In addition, there are patrol teams composed of infantry and musketeers. Gandalf is stationed in Hammerfall and can teleport to support at any time, which can completely guarantee the safety of the farm area.
Finally, Minas Tirith, the most important town in Galen's hands, is currently in a state of lockdown, with no one but base soldiers.
Galen plans to start building Minas Tirith after the eradication of the Witherbark Tribe and there are no more disasters in the eastern border of the kingdom. Currently, there are only the first ring central area, the second ring military area and mage area, and the third ring farm area.
Galen's expectation is to build at least seven rings.
When he frees up his hands, he can build the city walls into seven layers as soon as possible, and Galen already has some ideas for the subsequent construction of Minas Tirith.
Minas Tirith currently has four barracks, two Arcane Sanctums, one workshop and one griffin nest, which is the most comprehensive of the several sub-bases in Galen's hands.
There are currently a total of six town halls, including the level two main city of Minas Tirith.
One in the Land of Origin, three in Minas Tirith, one in Hmmerfall, and one in Canyon. One hundred and forty-four new farmers can be added every day.
Minas Tirith has four barracks, the Land of Origin has two, and Canyon has two new ones, for a total of eight. One hundred and twenty-eight soldiers can be trained every day, which has reached the limit of the farmer's gold resource collection chain.
Minas Tirith has two Arcane Sanctums, mainly for training priests. Priests are related to a major plan for Galen in the future, so two Arcane Sanctums are specifically set aside for training priests. It's just that priests are a troop type of the level two main city, and the training time is particularly long. It takes more than a day to train one, unlike infantry, which can be trained in an hour and a half.
Thinking of this, Galen turned his perspective to the Land of Origin and deployed two Arcane Sanctums. From now on, the Land of Origin will be his gathering place for wizards.
Finally, there is the newly established Canyon, which is a sub-base for producing mechanized troops. Galen is already fantasizing about commanding an army in the style of Shuke and Beta, and going straight to the enemy's lair.
He couldn't help but laugh like a pig.
But it is understandable. The Origin Core is Galen's powerful guarantee. After working hard for several months, trying every means to piece together gold coins to recharge the base, he finally established his basic foothold in Azeroth.
Compared with the enemies of the future, he is still very weak now.
Not to mention anything else, the green-skinned orcs who will flood into Azeroth after the Dark Portal is established next year will be able to crush him in minutes.
However, he never thought of confronting the orcish horde alone. Moreover, the vanguard of orcs entering Azeroth are the most capable fighters from Draenor, and they have also drunk demon blood, and their combat power is off the charts. His current small body can't withstand it.
Fortunately, there is the behemoth of the human alliance. If the sky falls, there are tall people to hold it up. When he has a strong back in the future, he will do things to save Azeroth.
Strengthening strength is the only hard truth. The next strategic goal is Witherbark Tribe, removing this nail that has been nailed to the southeast of the Arathi Highlands for thousands of years.
Currently, the troops in his hands have reached more than 10,000, with more than 7,000 base soldiers and 3,000 for Omar and the others.
However, Galen has a phobia of insufficient troops. He wants to crush the trolls of Witherbark Tribe with enough troops. He can't mobilize even 10,000 people now, and his several sub-bases need to be garrisoned for defense.
Especially Hammerfall and Canyon, these two places need heavy troops to prevent the trolls of Hinterlands from bypassing the kingdom's borders and crossing the Alterac Mountains to support Witherbark Tribe.
In this way, he can only mobilize one legion, and if it is operated well, it is not impossible to fight.
According to the kingdom's intelligence, the number of trolls in Witherbark Tribe should be over 10,000.
According to their social structure and the trolls' physical fitness, excluding cubs and old people who cannot walk, at least seven or eight thousand people with combat effectiveness can be pulled out.
Even if three thousand were lost before and their vitality was severely damaged, there are still four or five thousand who can fight.
His less than two times the troops is not very safe. When fighting, of course, the more soldiers under your command, the better. Most situations where you face more enemies with fewer troops are because your strength is insufficient and you are forced to do so. Any general with a normal mind hopes to have more people than the enemy when fighting.
As for why he doesn't have enough troops, why doesn't he ask for reinforcements like last time? Danath is so close to Go'shekFarm, why not cooperate with the militia again for a joint attack on Witherbark Tribe?
The reason is nothing more than that Galen wants to eat alone. Why share the food that is already safely in his plate with others?
Such a great military exploit, I, Galen, will take it all!
Now he has eight barracks, constantly producing troops. Every day his strength increases by one point.
There is no need to take risks, no need to rush.
Wait two more months, just two months, and after two months, he will destroy them!
Galen constantly emphasized stability in his heart, doing psychological construction, and finally suppressed the idea of immediately leading troops to attack Witherbark Tribe.
