Chapter 20 The Karl City Incident

"Selina? Selina?"

Locke came to Selina's room gently, opened the door and called softly.

"Locke, is that you?"

Selina opened a gap in the quilt and looked at the door nervously. She didn't dare to open the quilt until she confirmed that the person coming was Locke.

Now the only person she can trust and rely on is Locke. Without Locke, she would have ceased to exist in this world long ago.

"I'm fine!"

Selina got out of the quilt suddenly, and when she saw Locke, she felt an inexplicable sense of security. This might have something to do with Locke buying her from the auction.

The man who made her bite his hand without making a sound made her feel grateful, but also an inexplicable sense of relief.

Locke breathed a sigh of relief after making sure that Salina was fine. Originally, he was worried that Salina would be mentally nervous because she would associate the war outside with the war in her own tribe, but now it seems that this worry is somewhat unnecessary. .

"Is the battle outside over?" Selina asked cautiously.

She didn't know the situation outside, but the barracks was behind the city tower, and she could tell that the battle must be fierce just by the sound outside.

"Of course, we won, defeated the invading army, and captured them all. I tell you, they were defeated by me!"

Locke gave Selina a big smile, and he promised her that he would help her go back for revenge!
……

In the Mansion of the Lord of Xitu City, Shi Bo looked at the battle report from the front with a dark face. The army he sent was completely wiped out. Even Sloan, his cousin, was killed in this battle!

Taking a deep breath, Spo was thinking about what happened to allow Jose to wipe out a thousand Situ troops. Don't forget, there is still a Kleiman in Karl City who cooperates with Sloan.

If they followed their original plan, Jose would have no chance of winning the battle.

"What the hell happened!"

However, no matter what tricks there are in Karl City, Sipo will not let this matter go unnoticed. Now there are about 500 Xitu troops left as prisoners in Karl City. He will give those prisoners to him anyway. to come back.

Xitu City is about the same size as Cal City. They are both medium-sized cities. Even the defense force is the same as Cal City. It is the standard configuration of a medium-sized city in the Holman Kingdom, a brigade of 500 people!
If there is no way to get those Xitu Army soldiers back, then Xitu City will become an empty city, with only [-] city guards left, who can barely maintain law and order in the city. If the bandits outside the city cause trouble, he will not be able to do anything. There is no ability to suppress it.

Spoelstra will never allow this to happen!
Locke wrote clearly in the letter sent by someone that he could ask Carl City to release the people, but each person would need a ransom of five gold coins.

Five gold coins per person, more than 500 people are close to [-] gold coins. Five hundred new recruits have been trained and equipped!

But after all, new recruits are not as useful as veterans!
"Where is Commander Kleiman? Is there any news about him?"

Shiba asked a soldier who brought up the battle report with a dark face. Kleiman had disappeared since the battle ended.

But Sipo knew he wasn't dead, because he disappeared with a group of his men.

"Go back to the city lord, Commander Kleiman... disappeared, even when our spies went to follow their tracks, they disappeared inexplicably."

The soldier honestly told Sipo everything he knew. Although some people had told him that if he concealed some military information, there would be unexpected benefits, he still did not dare to conceal it after all. , It's about his head!

"Missing! Hmph!"

Spall snorted harshly. Clayman was definitely hiding on purpose because he was afraid of taking responsibility.

After all, they have planned this plan for a long time, and now that it has failed, there must be someone to take the blame. Sloan is dead, and the best person to take the blame is Kleiman, but if he disappears, the ministers above will probably take it out on him up!

All the rest of the mess will be left to Sibo himself to clean up, and now he is also the first and the second big.

The most important thing is that Carl City has not been defeated. I don't know what means Jose will counter him. Although their Holder family is the strongest now, the royal family's vitality has not yet completely dissipated. , They still have some hole cards.

And those hole cards need to be eaten bit by bit by head-to-head. If he is not lucky, he will become cannon fodder and be used by the people above to fight against the royal family.

However, Sipo was able to become the city lord of Xitu City, and even got his cousin Sloan to the position of commander of Xitu City. He still has some connections and abilities. I hope this time he can regain his position above the court. city.

After sorting out his thoughts, Sibo began to pick up a pen and write a letter to his superiors. Now that the facts are already like this, he can only pay to redeem the soldiers, and at the same time hope that through the performance of the superiors in the court, the soldiers will be brought back. Jose first army.

In short, he must bring down Jose, otherwise, he, the city lord of Xitu City, has achieved his end, and even his family will decline from now on!
With the occurrence of the Karl City incident, Antok County, where Karl City and Xitu City are located, was shaken. The county guard, Marquis Snoke, directly sent people to Xitu City and Karl City to investigate.

But unfortunately, Snooker is also a member of Holder's family, so when Snooker's emissary led nearly a thousand people to appear outside Karl City and asked to enter the city for investigation, the defenders of Karl City directly Refused.

With so many people here to conduct an 'investigation', it was too obvious that Jose was no fool.

Fortunately, Locke put so much effort in the battle that day, turning what should have been an extremely fierce battle into his personal performance show, so the main force of the city guard of Cal City was preserved.

Facing Jose who still had a thousand regular troops, the snooker envoy had no choice but to go back in despair, but what is certain is that the results of this investigation must be unfavorable for Jose!
But all of this has nothing to do with Locke. For him, the biggest enemy is a word, poor!

As long as he has enough money, he will dare to rebel if he is asked to rise immediately!

Gone silently, please recommend a ticket! ! !
