Working Prophet.

Chapter 675 The Fall of Lionheart Castle

The farmer imagines the future, while his wife mends his clothes, and the family enjoys themselves.

Li Yu and Ilea didn't stay here for too long, because they heard that the Prophet Merlin was coming, and everyone in the village came running after a while.

They also brought a lot of gifts, expressing their gratitude to Li Yu in this way, and when someone recognized Ilea's identity, people also cheered for the female lord, praising her wisdom and kindness.

When leaving the village, Miss Rabbit felt that she was walking a little lighter.

After that, the two went to a nearby farm. Houses under repair and newly cultivated fields could be seen everywhere along the way.

The blacksmiths sweated and rattled on the forging table, while the militiamen worked hard on the training ground.

According to the manager of the farm, if you come here on Saturdays and Sundays, it will be more lively, and there are often dances and banquets.

In addition, he also showed Li Yu and Ilea the newly dug cellar, including the food stored in it, to ensure that people would have a place to hide in case of a crisis.

Ilea focused on asking about the security situation nearby.

Because a large number of new citizens have poured into the green field during this period, it is usually accompanied by some crimes.

However, the situation is much better than Miss Rabbit expected. Thanks to the rapid development of the green field, people are being recruited everywhere.

Even foreigners who have nothing here can quickly find a job and support themselves. In addition, militias from all over the country have generally replaced new equipment and stepped up training.

The pair then encounter a referee who is investigating a carpenter who has been reported to have recently overworked two of his apprentices for taking on too much work.

Instead of bothering the parties, the young referee first visited the families that employed the carpenter and his apprentices to ask how long they worked.

After collecting the information, they found a family in the next village and planned to hire the carpenter for a few days to see with their own eyes whether he violated the precepts.

Miss Rabbit is quite interested in this matter and wants to know more.

But at this moment, she saw a group of cavalry galloping from a distance, bringing up snowflakes.

The person in charge is her captain of the guard, Thomas.

"Miss Ilea," the captain of the guard shouted from a distance, "It's not good, something happened!"

The female lord's heart also sank, "Did something happen at Teacup Castle?"

"No, it's the capital." Thomas said with a hint of anxiety, "Something happened in the capital!

"We have just received urgent news from Lionheart Castle that the capital has fallen into the hands of those Yi people!"

"What?" Ilea was stunned, "How is this possible? Hasn't the two sides been in a stalemate for more than two months? Why did the capital suddenly fall? Did the Yi tribe solve the supply problem through any means? There are big nobles in the city who betrayed?"

"It is true that some nobles have rebelled. They are passing information to those Yi people outside the city. It seems that some small lords secretly sent a batch of arrows to those Yi people, but it is the dragon who really turned the tide of the battle."

"Dragon? Why did another dragon appear?" Miss Rabbit was shocked.

As a dragon slaying hero in the western region, no one knows better than her how terrifying those monsters that are covered in scales, can breathe fire and can fly.

Although the female lord had killed one before, the process was not so easy. In the end, Li Yu even went into battle himself to kill the dragon.

"Not one, but three." Thomas said, "Radiou saw them with his own eyes. According to him, the three dragons are stronger than the one we hunted before, almost the same size as the black dragon. twice as many, and they flew from the south."

"South?" Ilea thought of something, "Elf Kingdom?"

"Yes. Those guys with long ears officially declared war on us today. Their army has left the Evergreen Forest, set foot on the land of the empire, and fought with the local nobles."

The continuous bad news has already made Miss Rabbit a little numb.

After a while, she came back to her senses and continued to ask, "Your Majesty, he..."

"The King's Landing Tower is completely in ruins. Lord Redio is asking, but there is no news from His Majesty for the time being. He should be...alive." Thomas finally used a questioning tone.

Apparently he wasn't very optimistic that Gals could survive this disaster. Even though he was still alive, the Wings had captured Lionheart Fort, and it was only a matter of time before Gals was caught.

Realizing the seriousness of the problem, the female lord didn't have the mood to continue wandering, and followed Thomas and the others back to the castle immediately.

Miss Rabbit rummaged through the study for a long time before she found a map of the empire, and it seemed to be hundreds of years old.

But maps are rare these days, especially empire maps, which are good to have, and now is not the time to pick and choose.

The lord spread out the map on the table.

First found the Lionheart Castle on it, and losing the capital would be a disaster for the empire.

What's more terrible is that this is not the end, but the beginning of the disaster.

Miss Rabbit moved her gaze to Baihe City, which is about two days away from Lionheart Castle.

At this time, reinforcements from all over the country were concentrated there, and the number was almost approaching 10!

Such a force is undoubtedly very strong, but what they have to face this time is an opponent they have never seen before.

Du Lun, the former head of the Royal Forest Guard, was also in the room, and said at this moment, "If I were the commander of those Yi people, I would immediately send a giant dragon to attack White River City.

"As long as I defeat the [-] reinforcements in the city, no one in the empire will have the power to stop me."

The female lord was also very anxious, and said, "We must notify Baihe City immediately." She asked Li Yu, "Is there a contact person for the Shuangxiu Sect?"

Li Yu shook his head, "The number of radio stations is limited. Baihe City is relatively close to Lion Heart Fort, so I didn't arrange extra manpower and even if I notify now, it's too late."

There are now a full [-] troops hoarded in Baihe City. This is certainly a powerful military force, but it is impossible for so many people to act so quickly together.

Even if they were willing to believe the Shuangxiu Sect's warning, they wouldn't be able to go far in a while. In contrast, the three-headed dragon was surprisingly mobile.

Although there was a huge disparity in the number of the two sides, the female lord was not optimistic about the support army, and looked at Li Yu, "Is there really no other way?"

The prophet of Shuangxiu religion shook his head slowly.

Miss Rabbit was stunned, and then asked Du Lun, "If Baihe City is also lost... then where will those Yi people go next?"

"They should take the Red Plains first, and wait for the elf army to come over. After that, they have many choices. They can go back and eat the new land, or they can continue to advance westward and take the Elk Valley and the Golden Valley. "

Du Lun paused, "What I'm most worried about is the morale of the empire. With the fall of Lionheart Fort and another big defeat for White River City, some people may start to waver and reconsider their position.

"The Wing Clan army doesn't have many people, and they can't occupy much land. If they want to rule this continent, they still need to rely on their allies."
