Chapter 610: Huge Dam

A giant tree with a diameter of more than 30 centimeters can be felled in ten minutes, and a huge reservoir of hundreds of meters can be built.

Lin Qing combined the power of the beaver with the labor of the puppet and himself and Erwin's magic Dharma Body to create a massive dam.

While Lin Qing and Erwin used their magic to prop up the water, the puppets diligently stacked the logs cut by the beavers on the river bed.

Stacked logs are again reinforced with soil and rocks, which add height.

"You plan to launch a water attack." Erwin asked.

"Yes, after we have gathered enough water, we can use magic or gunpowder to blow up the dam and destroy the Volga army.

Hearing Lin Qing's explanation, Erwin's face turned cold.

Lin Qing completely understood her reaction, and Owen was also from the Volga Republic.

She's helping her homeland soldiers create a trap, and that's not normal.

"But, I can't say no," Erwin thought.

No matter how much she hates her, Erwin must do his best to help Lin Qing, until his secret of the pendant is revealed.

Otherwise, she will be asked to leave immediately.

However, there was another reason for her cold eyes.

"Are you stupid?"

"I am a fool?"

"Yes, it takes a lot of wood to flush down thousands of water, and it takes a lot of time to build a dam that can hold that much water, and it doesn't matter how many beavers use the wood, the golem will work, and work its magic."

"You're right, no matter how fast we act, it's still five days away.

It took Lin Qing four days to build the dam.

A border dispute with the Volga Republic was to be expected.

Therefore, as soon as he became commander-in-chief, he laid mines and trained the fortress troops very actively.

But what Lin Qing didn't expect was that the Republic would mobilize the army for an all-out war.

No matter how well prepared the Trot Fortress is, it cannot stop an enemy ten times stronger.

In fact, it is a miracle that the fortress can stand until then.

Lin Qing seeks the last resort.

However, the dam is not a one or two day project.

Lin Qing's answer led Erwin to ask another question: "How are you going to last five more days?"

There was no sign of reinforcements arriving.

The enemy was just ahead, day after day, supplies running out.

"Are you cheating again to buy time? They don't get cheated twice," Erwin said.

"Yes, that's why..."

Lin Qing told Owen a plan on how to buy five days.

Erwin was surprised to hear the plan and frowned.

"You're crazy."

"I knew you would say that."

However, Lin Qing slapped his chest and continued: "And that crazy thing will bring us success. I can bet on it."

"So what do you think? Want to take a gamble?" Lin Qing asked.

Seeing Lin Qing's confident expression, Erwin shook his head.

"I'll just watch, you're a crazy guy who can do crazy things to bring success.

"Is this a compliment?" Lin Qing asked.

"You can do whatever you want."

Seeing Erwin's cold expression and attitude, Lin Qing couldn't help showing a wry smile on his face.

Looking at the uncomfortable woman in front of him, he can understand Princess Lena's sweetness.

"What is Reina doing now?"

Lin Qing, who missed the princess, was once again immersed in dam construction.

If he can do what he has to do, he can be reunited with the people in his hospital.

"Bell! Can you speed it up?"

"Okay, master!"

Bell received orders from Lin Qing; approach the beavers and tell them to speed up.

"Is Sir Lin Qing doing well?"

Reina suddenly looked up at the northern sky, thinking about something.

Because she has not received a letter for more than two weeks.

"Princess, don't worry, Sir Lin Qing will return safely."

"You think so?"

Hearing Pavel's words, she nodded.

The day before the Battle of Trot [Rena heard this story from a merchant who had been to Chrome City.

It is also said that it was the place where the army was exiled, not the same at the front, the Volga Republic was always looking for a fight.

However, Lin Qing kept telling her that he was fine, so she had to wait and trust him.

Reina and Pavel are talking about Lin Qing and his happiness.

Suddenly, soldiers entered the room.

"Heavy news! The Volga army has invaded the border!"

"What did you say?" the two asked.

The two were taken aback, and quickly asked the soldiers for details.

But the soldier only knew that the Volga army had invaded the border.

"I can't stay here, I need to see Sir Hans at once."

She got up to meet Hans, who lived permanently in Lamer, who was in charge of the land and should know something.

And she was right.

The sudden news came, and there was a lot of noise in Lord Lamer's office.

"Ser Hans!" Rayna called.

"Ah, Princess Reina is here."

Those discussing countermeasures stood up from their seats and handed Funa a copy.

Sitting down, she asked about Lin Qing's safety, and they replied, "We're using our abilities to see what's going on at Fort Tolot, but we can't figure out anything because the Imperial Army is controlling all information flow."

The new discovery of Hans and his retainers is that the Volga army is very large in number, which is different from the battles of previous years.

Naturally, the fortress has been breached, and the situation in the fortress of Trott is likely to be very dangerous.

"Can't we help?" Reyna asked.

"You mean to send reinforcements?"

"Yes, if the soldiers and infantry are strong, then we will send knights and titans, and consider sending 553 reinforcements."

But sending troops from the south to the north is not easy.

Furthermore, according to imperial law, troops from one place were not allowed to enter another without the consent of the emperor and court.

"If we ignore the law and cross the line, we will be charged with treason."

"If that's the case...how about we disguise them as mercenaries?"

"While we are looking at ways to help, we cannot decide to send troops without knowing the situation at Fort Tolot.

The retainers are negotiating.

Regardless of the size of the invading Volga army, the work and laws of the empire must be obeyed.

Imperial forces may be trying to stop the advance of the Volga Republic. If not, Lin Qing could have retreated safely.

"It would be nice to know at least some information about Fortress Trott."

Hans was thinking that it was no coincidence that war broke out under such circumstances.

No, it's not a coincidence, it's the emperor's conspiracy.

If not, why did war break out soon after Lin Qing was assigned to the front line?

Even if he fears what might happen in war, it is his duty to remain calm and think.

When Hans was frustrated, Reina asked: "Can we get information on the battlefield?"

"sorry?"

"If we get information on the battlefield, can we help Sir Lin Qing?".
