these townsmen.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>First, the Weng City.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, Lawrence has brought an army of over three thousand to Morgan Town, and they could launch an attack on this territory at any moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To increase the success rate of defending the city, it is essential to construct a Weng City that can enhance offensive directions.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Second, siege machinery.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Woodworker Workshop needs to produce various large-scale siege machines.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Then, chevaux de frise, ditches, watchtowers, beacon towers, and outpost fortresses, etc.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With chevaux de frise and ditches, they can delay the speed of enemy cavalry attacks, preventing them from charging directly in;\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Watchtowers can increase the field of vision, occupying a visual advantage.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Beacon towers and outpost fortresses can set roadblocks on the necessary paths through the territory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>To attack the territory, they must first resolve the outpost fortresses to delay the enemy’s formation setting for the territory!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Next, the wooden tracks leading to the salt mine Salt Factory.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Only by using track transportation throughout can draft horses be completely liberated, enhancing transport capacity.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Finally, armor!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Currently, the soldiers in the territory number eleven hundred.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But only five hundred soldiers under Rose are equipped with full armor.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The Guards and Archers are still only wearing chest armor and helmets.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The production efficiency of armor must be accelerated!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In Lynn’s continuous planning in mind, he had already, with Colin, passed through the woods and arrived under the city wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Colin quietly followed behind Lynn, afraid to disturb him in any way.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Until Lynn’s gaze turned towards him, he quickened his pace to Lynn’s side.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Colin responded, \"Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn spoke, \"Produce ten more hand-pulled mine carts, then have the Woodworker Workshop change direction and start manufacturing siege machinery!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Start with simple siege machines and fortifications, make chevaux de frise and dig horse-resistant ditches.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"As for the Wolf Fang Club, Semen Knife Car, Qianjin Gate, and pushing the Cloud Ladder, those can be done gradually.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The newly appointed Stonemason Workshop Avery needs to build various houses and buildings.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>The excavation work can only be handed to Colin’s Woodworker Workshop.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn looked at Colin again, \"Old Colin, I know your Woodworker Workshop has been working non-stop, with barely any rest.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"But you also know that not only have you not rested, but many townsmen have been working continuously for the development of the territory.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Colin bowed slightly, his words full of respect, \"Master, I understand!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn nodded, walking into the tower under the gaze of soldiers undergoing physical training, and climbing onto the city wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Instantly.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A cold wind carrying a chill blew from the open wasteland ahead, stirring his hair and the robe he wore.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn’s gaze scanned in a circle and continued speaking: \"The ditch should be set fifty meters outside the city wall, extending into the distance.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The width of the ditch is about five meters, and the depth is about three meters!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"There might be more rain in the winter and spring, and some planks and branches can be used for reinforcement.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"Sharp stakes can be set at the bottom of the ditch!\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Such ditch dimensions can effectively obstruct enemy attacks.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Especially cavalry units!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After the last direct cavalry charge that reached the foot of the wall, Lynn had learned his lesson.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Colin responded with a \"Yes, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn continued speaking, \"As for chevaux de frise... the prepared chevaux de frise can be placed on the outside of the ditch, forming the first line of defense.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"The interval between placements can be about two meters.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"However, to prevent the enemy from easily pushing the chevaux de frise away, they need to be reinforced.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>\"It’s best to drive in stakes first, then use ropes to bind the stakes to the top.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Colin responded again, \"Understood, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Listening to Master Lynn’s detailed explanation, a different feeling arose in Colin’s heart.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Their Master Lynn spends almost all his time on territorial construction!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Master Lynn is indeed the busiest and most continuously working person in this territory!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After confirming there were no omissions, Lynn said to Colin, \"I will allocate one hundred more laborers to you, how to dispatch them will be up to you.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Colin’s eyes lit up, \"Thank you, Master.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn said, \"Go ahead and get busy.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After dismissing Colin, Lynn looked at Red and said, \"Call Avery over, he’s near the city wall.\"\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Red responded, looking at a Guard to start making arrangements.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>After a few words from Red, that Guard quickly left, running down the city wall.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn once again looked at the far-off wasteland outside the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Whether it’s the near Morgan Town’s Lawrence or the distant Marquis Mark Ducas, or even the impending Imperial Authority war...\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>With the armed forces he currently has, there’s no way to contend against them.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Although his territory has a population of seven thousand four hundred, seemingly large in number.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>But the actual fighting force is only about eleven hundred people.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>In front of three thousand systematically trained soldiers, wearing armor and wielding weapons, they’re just a disorganized mob!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Perhaps a single charge would result in over half being killed or wounded.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>If Lawrence really comes to breach the city.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>He can only prepare chevaux de frise in advance, dig the ditches well, and rely on the city walls for the fight!\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Preparations for an impending battle must be well made.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>At this moment.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>A sound of footsteps arose from the rear.\u003C\u002Fp>\n\u003Cp>Lynn turned to look and saw the Guard who had just left, bringing Avery over to him.\u003C\u002Fp>",931,"2026-05-29T04:50:48.604Z","2026-06-01T04:29:11.989Z",1,"novelbin.me","cc4fb139db95a01749833d46d29b2a6d31b09974438a1fbc9810936816b52502","system-build-my-own-territory-chapter-385","system-build-my-own-territory-chapter-383",979,"https:\u002F\u002Fnovelzhen.com\u002Fimages\u002Fcovers\u002Fsystem-build-my-own-territory-cover.jpg"]
