Genius Archer’s Streaming Season 3 Episode 161

A move to boldly increase the number of hunting posts from the beginning.
For Vikings, building multiple hunting posts is a way to secure food and gold.
So, it is certain that if you continue to increase the number of hunting posts from the beginning, you will be able to quickly gather resources.
Before the outpost breaks even and depletes its resources, it becomes too vulnerable.
“Isn’t this a bit of a risky choice for Viking?”
Kinggyul had no choice but to say this.
“uh!? Why? “You’ll make a lot of money, right?”
“In the end, resources are what you need to become stronger, right?”
“yes. you’re right.”
“But now the Vikings are continuing to use resources for resources’ sake. It’s a situation where you make money just to make money! Then you will make good money, of course! But I don’t have money to spend on fighting!!”
– Responsibility without pleasure ㄷㄷ
– It’s a complete gamble
– I’m going to blow it all at once, right now
– LOL Making money to make money
This was clearly a gambling play from Viking’s point of view.
If the opponent notices this movement, it can cause enormous damage.
“If Joseon notices this and launches a 1st era defense tower rush! “Viking’s game is really getting harder!”
“Yes! Cookie is really good at that, right!? How many commanders were made to cry by that!! But now you’re pulling out the so-called flying weapon in front of Cookie!?”
As the broadcaster said, Cookie is a commander skilled in early stabbing.
Even Joseon’s soldiers were mostly people who were well into this type of play.
“It’s from the 3rd era of Joseon. But somehow! There are differences between people too!? Anyway, the players fighting in Joseon right now! Honestly, you might be more familiar with small-scale skirmishes in the 1st and 2nd eras, right?”
-ㄹㅇㅋㅋㅋ
– Actually, it’s not that many times I’ve won since I went to the 3rd era lol
– They’re masters at fighting over rice lol
– They’re the best at bickering, so
they’ve already kept in step with those early tactics with Cookie and have the experience of winning against him. of power.
“No matter how strong the Vikings are in the beginning! “This kind of extreme behavior can actually become strange!”
Coupled with the opponent’s tendencies, the Vikings were clearly making a risky choice.
“yes. Yes. however! Joseon must notice this! That’s how everything works….”
Of course, everything is useless if Joseon doesn’t notice.
But—
“Uh oh!?”
Pick!
The observer changed the view to one side’s perspective.
This is Joseon’s perspective.
The stadium was the same.
Kugugu Palace….
One half of the stadium was immersed in darkness and the terrain collapsed.
“Oooooh…!”
The audience murmured as it was the first time that a change of perspective was expressed as a hologram.
“Did I tell you that it’s important whether the cookie finds it or not!? “I think that’s why we’re broadcasting in this way now!”
-Godzer –
Wow, I wonder if I can find it by looking at it like this haha
– I’ll be bored if I see it in the field.
Wow, most of the vision is immersed in darkness.
It was not an easy choice to actively send reconnaissance against the Vikings in the 1st era, so Joseon’s horizons were much narrower than those of the Vikings.
“Ah… this is the power of the Vikings. “The difference in visibility is huge, isn’t it?”
“But in the 1st era, when there is no warmonger faction. “Even if I die now, I have to send in scouts!”
“There are many cases where people die before they get in! Just throw an ax from a distance!”
From the 1st era, Vikings were able to produce axes, and axes were a fairly cheap weapon compared to spears or swords.
Because it can be thrown as a disposable throwing weapon in the first place.
“you’re right. “That’s great.”
“But now the number of hunting posts is increasing like crazy! Axes would not have been produced! “Cookie doesn’t know that, which is why he’s hesitating now!”
In fact, if Joseon pushed forward with reconnaissance now, it could clearly see into the Vikings’ intentions.
Cookie just doesn’t know if that’s possible right now.
“Come on, Cookie. No matter what, I return the scouts consistently and carefully. uh? Did you see it? “What judgment will we make?”
Several soldiers from both sides encountered each other on the map.
The situation did not escalate into a fight, but each commander was informed.
“cookie. Should I feel something strange? The Vikings’ scouting form right now is strange. “There are no kids with axes!”
Evidence that Cookie could find out was scattered little by little.
Normally, a Viking would have included at least one person with an ax in the scouting party at this time.
In the situation just now, no one was holding an axe.
This is because all the money is being spent on building hunting outposts.
Of course, you may have accidentally met a group without Dok2, so this is not certain information.
Certain information is a ‘form of reconnaissance’.
“Reconnaissance looks completely different!?”
The Vikings are a civilization that performs very aggressive reconnaissance, starting with the strength of the First Age.
In the previous edition, they tried to monopolize all the food in that way.
But what about now?
He slowly approaches, forming a line. Like defenders waiting for offside.
“Vikings are playing bed soccer now! “This isn’t a Viking!?”
Did you even listen to Kinggyul’s words?
Peeing!
[Attack]
An order is given from the Viking side.
“uh? Viking! “They’re rushing towards me!”
“It’s a bluff! “I’m going a little overboard trying to act normal!”
-Excessive acting haha
-blah blah blah -How
can I get rid of this
? The Viking still has no intention of fighting properly, but that’s not like a normal Viking.
So, they pretend to just rush in and make a kind of bluff.
If Joseon does not retreat, the Vikings will eventually fall back without attacking.
But—
Ting!
[Retreat]
Cookie pulls his troops back for a moment.
“ah…!”
“I think the bluff worked!?”
“Actually, this is the correct response. Isn’t it a bluff that the Vikings are just rushing into the 1st era? It’s crazy to think and fight! Ma Dong-seok is not pretending to be strong just because he shows off his arm muscles! “It’s really strong!”
-Kkkkkk
-ㄹㅇ
-ㅁㅊkkkkk
– That’s right
– Bts, that’s unreasonable kkkk
– If Ma Dong-seok bluffs, you should just fool him ssk
– (If he notices, you’ll die)
– Bluffing (physics) kkkkk
“But cookies? Did you notice something strange? “I bring forward an assistant commander.”
First, the troops were defeated, but Cookie must have decided that the Viking scouts were acting strangely, so he called an assistant commander to the front of the battle line.
It seemed like he was thinking of using the [Falcon Flapping] skill.
The cooldown is quite long in the beginning, so use it carefully.
The reason I decided to write this this time is that something feels strange.
“Yes. Joseon noticed something strange! But openly! Ah brother! Don’t be rude! “You’re not doing it, you’re just looking into it from behind, right?”
“You have good social skills!”
-Sssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssssskkkkkkkkkkkkk
-Dont be rude kkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkkk
-Social skills kkkkkk
–
This is popular!?
Bread rides on horseback and throws a falcon.
Whiiii!
In an instant, the black part of the map turns into a circle.
A hunting post was visible at the edge.
“!”
“Kick it!!!”
A hunting post has reached this area.
“ah. When did we get this far!? Because there is no vision! “I was really surprised too!”
I didn’t realize it because I had no visibility, but quite a bit of time had passed since the Vikings began expanding their guard post.
“cookie! You confirmed it, right?! How do we come up with a solution now!?”
* * *
I saw the cookie.
‘The hunting post is all the way here at this timing?’
The Viking scout didn’t seem as usual, so I used the falcon attack early on.
There was a harvest.
‘The fact that the hunting post is out here… means it’s already full.’
A hunting post is a building that is only effective when built at a certain distance.
So, if you build a lot, it will eventually spread to the opposing camp’s lands.
That usually happens after the mid-2nd Age, the heyday of the Viking civilization.
It would be strange to see a hunting post so close to the middle ground in the First Age.
Doing something strange.
‘How many hunting posts are there behind here?’
Something is different from the usual Viking.
That was certain.
Cookie closed his eyes for a moment and was lost in thought.
“Whoa.”
If you take a moment to relax your eyes and take a deep breath to empty your mind, your flow of thoughts will instantly accelerate.
Movements seen so far.
‘The first movement of the scouts. And there’s even a clumsy bluff.’
Strange movements of scouts.
A hunting post that sticks out into the middle ground.
‘Now that I think about it, there were no troops carrying axes.’
Vikings have been supplying axes since the 1st Age, so most scouts on the front lines are carrying axes.
None of the people I just encountered had an axe.
This may be a coincidence, but when all the above factors are combined, it is not a coincidence.
‘I plan to save up all the money I don’t have and blow it up in the second era.’
In other words, Viking has now invested all of its leverage.
In fact, it is almost bankrupt.
And they are aiming for a rebound in the early 2nd era.
‘I’m planning to strike at the beginning of the 2nd era. ‘It’s not the typical way to aim for the beginning of the 3rd era.’
Even though the Vikings are now bankrupt, they will stop building hunting posts at some point and start siphoning off all the money. And we will focus only on weapons production.
That was the beginning of the 2nd era.
Although it is not as big as the beginning of the 3rd era, there will be an explosive force that cannot be produced by any other civilization during that era.
The second era of Joseon had no talent to keep up with its explosive power.
If things continue like this, Joseon will lose in the second era.
However, there is no way.
No, rather, this strategy is one with many loopholes.
‘The amount of activity decreases in the 1st era.’
The Vikings’ strengths from the 1st era disappear.
They cannot properly observe and put pressure on early Joseon.
As the number of guard posts increases, almost all of the 200 men must focus on hunting, and the rest must guard the guard post.
Only then will gold production increase explosively.
To sum up, there is a very vulnerable timing in this strategy.
‘just now.’
That is now.
Cookie’s eyes open.
[Attack]
He gave the order to attack.
About twenty barbarian soldiers form a line and start running towards the area.
I plan to take down the hunting post.
At that time, the Vikings nearby gathered at the hunting post.
[Wait]
Cookie immediately gave the order to stop.
The Joseon army stopped in a confrontation with the Vikings.
The Vikings formed a formation in front of the hunting post as if they were going to guard it.
‘As expected, it comes out like this.’
I didn’t think they would give it up easily.
This is a hunting post that has advanced this far. Of course, the Vikings are also paying attention.
‘Then…’
Ping!
[Gathering]
100 people, excluding hunting people, begin to gather.
As the blue dots on the mini-map moved around, the cheers got louder, as if the audience realized something had started.
‘If you use this strategy, you will be punished.’
In the beginning, they built a hunting post like that and tried to protect it, as if to rip off the ship.
They are quite greedy. They fill their stomachs endlessly and then tell them that if they don’t like it, they should cut the stomach.
Then I really had no choice but to cut the ship open.
The stomach slit was Cookie’s specialty.
He estimated the location of the guard post and chose the most embarrassing location.
thud.
[Defense Tower]
[Under construction – 1%]
About five soldiers cling to the tower and the foundation of the defense tower rises in an instant.
“Waaaaaaaa!”
At that moment, cheers rang out throughout the stadium.
Not only was the defense tower starting to go up, but two people were waiting to enter the defense tower.
[Almond]
[Panga]
Joseon launched a 1st era defense tower rush against the Vikings.
