Pirate Sequence: Start with Outlaws
Chapter 234 The Old Lord's Mansion
One month after the start of the all-out war, Hill was once again called to the Shark Tooth Camp by Rune. The Shark Tooth Camp has now become the core area southeast of Beloberg.
Instructions for all nearby armies are issued here, whether it is the dispatch of soldiers or the response to enemy attacks.
"How is the fighting situation on the front line?" Lu En looked up and asked as Hill hurriedly arrived.
Hill didn't even have time to rest for a moment, so he hurriedly said: "The front line is getting more and more anxious now. On my side alone, Tadeusz ushered in a strong counterattack. Last time, he even led a group of thousands of people. The army launched a sneak attack on me at night, and also used large-scale invisibility techniques and some means of concealing their presence."
"If I hadn't taken precautions and placed the reconnaissance formation thousands of meters away from the camp, I might have really fallen into his trap. I can only say that these guys have fallen into complete madness."
Lu En said calmly: "These things are not beyond my expectations. After all, they did not take any advantage in the previous rounds of fighting. Seeing that there are fewer and fewer soldiers, it is understandable that they are anxious. "
"So at this time we need to hold on to our position more firmly. As long as our position in the southeast is undefeated, then the Wasek family in the west will be able to form a pincer attack with us, and their life will not be easy. As long as we can withstand this After a while, it will be easier.”
"Well, the soldiers also understand this truth, so everyone should not relax at all." Hill said, "We have done a very good job in both the construction of fortifications and the support of combat logistics. We have done a good job Preparations for a protracted war, but I don’t know why Colonel Luen called me here at this time. If there is any news, just send it to the front line.”
Having said this, he looked up at Lu En, seemingly confused.
In fact, I don't blame him. After all, the front line is so tense and the war is busy. There is no need for him to come here in person.
"There's no rush." Lu En motioned Hill to sit down next to him, and at the same time brought over a cup of tea, "These teas are shipped from the mysterious country in the East. Most people don't have such a good taste. Give it a try."
Although he was doubtful about Lu En's words, Hill did not dare to disobey Lu En's order, so he had to sit next to him and taste the newly brewed tea.
After taking a sip of tea, Hill's eyes lit up.
Although these teas are brewed with hot water, there is indeed a refreshing feeling in the stomach after drinking them. In addition to refreshing the mind, it can also calm people's minds. The anxious feeling caused by rushing on the road just now is gone. It also completely disappeared at this moment.
"Are you feeling better now?" Lu En said with a smile, "Now we can get down to business. I naturally have my own reasons for calling you here."
As he spoke, Rune pushed a soldier talisman in front of Hill and said: "Since I came to recruit Carlos's troops in the past 20 days, plus the soldiers brought from the Vasek family before, I have a total of 5 soldiers. There is more than enough, and the organization has been re-planned and organized accordingly. You also know these things.”
"Now this army of nearly 50,000 people is completely in my hands. Listen to my orders. This soldier symbol has been burned with the Vasek family. It can control an army of 20,000 people. Now I will put this A force of 20,000 people is under your command."
"An army of 20,000 people." Hill's voice was trembling as he looked at the soldier talisman that Lu En pushed over.
Even with Rune's look in his eyes, he didn't even dare to touch the talisman.
You must know that his current military rank is only a major. If you can hand over such important military power to him, it can be said to be an extreme trust in him.
But if Hill dared to touch this talisman in the slightest, it would undoubtedly be an overstep of power.
"Colonel Luen, this is absolutely impossible! If you let me lead an army of four to five thousand people, I am confident that I can control it, but I cannot take over the military power of these 20,000 people."
Hill's expression was a little panicked.
"You must also understand that in addition to my personal command ability and lack of strength, it is difficult for me to convince the public with the power of 20,000 troops, which can easily cause a series of problems. Now there are many pairs of eyes staring at us. Once I If you take over this weapon talisman, there will be a lot of troubles ahead.”
"As you can imagine, the dissatisfaction of the soldiers below, the provocations of other forces, and the stumbling blocks made by secret agents will follow one after another."
After hearing Hill's refusal, Lu En showed a true expression.
In fact, Luen felt the same way when the Vasek family gave him 20,000 soldiers.
Once you control power and reach a certain height, you will undoubtedly be stared at by countless eyes, and you will be dragged into the water if you are not careful.
If the strength, status and power in hand do not match, there will always be some price to pay as an intermediate replacement.
But unlike himself, Lu En doesn't care about these things.
But Hill felt that he could not match the military power of 20,000, so he postponed the move now.
But the problem Lu En faced now was that he had no one available. Apart from people like Hill and Carter Jr., he couldn't think of anyone else he could trust more.
Moreover, in Lu En's view, Hill, as a child of a noble family, does not have those bad habits. Instead, he is down-to-earth, capable, sincere and studious, and loyal to himself. Entrusting these 20,000 people to him is an extremely correct decision. If it were not for fear that the other party would be difficult to Accepting it, he even wanted to hand over more military power to Hill.
Seeing that the other party was reluctant to accept the military token, Rune was somewhat helpless and threw the military token directly at Hill's feet, "You are so hesitant like a woman. I will give it to you if I say so. Who dares to point fingers and say anything if I give it to you?"
"If anyone dares to say anything gossipy, you have 20,000 troops in your hands. Just destroy him. You don't have the demeanor of a general at all. In the future, I will definitely have more than 50,000 troops in my hands. If you can't even lead 20,000 people, how can you keep up with me?"
Rune's words made Hill silent for a long time. After thinking for a long time, he carefully picked up the military token in front of him, put it in his arms and said: "Colonel Rune, I will not hold you back, and I will live up to your expectations!"
After getting the military token, Hill was obviously much more confident, and there was a light flashing in his eyes, as if he had figured out something.
Rune also nodded slightly when he saw his state. This guy at least has confidence, which is indeed the first step forward.
If a person loses confidence, it is destined to be difficult to achieve anything.
"Now that you have the military token, you will have to make your own arrangements. I will give you all the information I have. After that, you, Carter Jr., and Lisa will jointly command 60,000 troops to stabilize the situation in the southeast. I believe you can do it."
"Understood." Hill knew at this moment that he didn't need to say anything to guarantee anything. He just needed to do his best to give the best return for Rune's trust. However, after hesitating for a while, he still asked, "Colonel Rune, you have given the military power to the three of us, so what are you doing..."
Rune did not hide his own affairs. He said, "The situation I am facing now is also quite complicated. Now it is the most dangerous thing for me to be in the open. The old lord probably doesn't know. How many assassins have already targeted me? If I stay here without making any move, it will undoubtedly increase the risk for myself. "
"I need to hide in the dark and switch the offensive and defensive positions, so that I can try to prevent their backhands. In addition, the Blood God Cult has also made some moves. I am a little worried about other people's investigations. I still have to do this kind of thing myself."
"So in the next period of time, I will trouble you three to stabilize the front line for me. You must also pay attention to ensuring your own survival. After you accept the military token, you will definitely be targeted by the assassins of the old lord. Be careful."
Hill nodded after understanding Rune's plan, and then made the final handover with Rune, and then hurriedly left the barracks and began to dispatch the army.
The same words were also given to Little Carter and Lisa. Compared with Hill, the two Runes were more worried and had to say more.
Especially Little Carter, she didn't want to control any army at all, she just wanted to stay by Rune's side to protect him.
As a result, Rune Ant refused on the grounds that the more people there were, the bigger the target would be.
He also told Little Carter that if he wanted to be his first mate, then controlling the army would inevitably become a compulsory course. Now was a very rare opportunity. If he wanted to help himself in the future, he could not lack the current training.
Under Rune's persuasion, Little Carter also reluctantly agreed to the plan.
So far, the military power in the southeast of Beloberg has been handed over to the three people he trusted most, and he just sneaked into the city of Beloberg quietly.
With the cover of the divine mask, he would not worry about being discovered when he sneaked in.
Now the city of Beloberg is in a state of panic. The residents have long been transferred to a safe place by their respective forces. The originally bustling streets seem extremely quiet, and only the occasional patrolling army will pass through the streets.
Rune quietly sneaked into the Black Forest Bar.
The witch and Black Flame were not in the bar at the moment, and Rune himself found the bar's storage room and took out the grapefruit wine from it to drink by himself.
Then he took out some dried beef and chewed it. After he had eaten and drunk enough, he found some sea water from the kitchen.
Then he took out a piece of octopus tentacle from his storage space.
This piece of octopus tentacle came from the octopus wizard. It has been nearly two months and it is still fresh.
When he took the octopus tentacle, its tip was still circling, as if greeting Rune. Putting the tentacle into the sea water was like a swimming fish returning to the embrace of the ocean.
Then, the tentacles grew at a very fast speed in the sea water, and a small octopus grew out again within a few minutes and floated on the water.
As time went by, the various organs of the small octopus gradually took shape, and finally swam happily in the water.
After a while, it began to rotate non-stop in the water, and then the octopus wizard appeared in front of Rune so gorgeously.
"What kind of trick is this?" Rune was curious when he saw the octopus wizard. He had never seen this kind of trick before. "Is it some kind of substitution technique?"
The octopus wizard snorted and waved the staff in his hand, denying Rune's question, saying: "It's just a simple replacement!"
"You, Rune, I told you to contact me when you enter the city. Why did you let me stay in the city and not move after being gone for so long? I have collected a lot of useful information!"
Once he started talking, the octopus wizard couldn't stop talking and said a lot of things.
Rune had a headache listening to it, but the other party didn't get to the point in the end.
"Stop, stop talking, and tell me some key information!" Rune said, "For example, are there any actions by the Blood God believers near the lord's mansion?"
"I know this!" The octopus wizard talked about this matter. The frequency of her legs' movements under her feet obviously became faster, and she seemed very excited. "I noticed the aura of the Blood God Altar. I clearly remember that it was in Beloberg." Lord's Mansion!"
"As soon as the aura came out, I immediately locked their location."
"You brought me in before and asked me to monitor them. I used witchcraft to arrange a lot of spies to monitor them all the time!"
"Finally, I penetrated through the layers and discovered that they had set up an altar in the Lord's Mansion, which can silently teleport Blood God believers into Belloberg City!"
"You also know that part of Beloberg's defensive formation is connected with the empire. If a large number of Blood God believers enter Beloberg City, the empire will definitely find something strange, so that The lord can only use this method to send believers in. "
"But they didn't take precautions, which led to the leakage of the Blood God's aura. Although they quickly used formations to cover up the aura of the Blood God's followers, I was still able to capture it keenly!"
"You mean there is a teleportation array for Blood God believers in the lord's mansion?" Rune confirmed this again towards the Octopus Wizard.
He knew that the lord's mansion had the aura of the Blood God, but he didn't expect that a teleportation array was blatantly set up!
The Octopus Wizard nodded and said affirmatively: "There must be, I feel it!"
Lu En narrowed his eyes. If he could get some relevant information about the teleportation array, it would be important evidence to prove that the lord colluded with the Blood God.
"Apart from this, is there any other information?" Lu En continued to ask.
"Of course there is. For example, a group of assassins with dark auras were sent from the lord's mansion. I don't know where they are going, but I have written down the general route and number of people. Take a look!"
The wizard said, and took out several pages of white paper from his arms, on which he drew some simple drawings in a child's way.
Although the painting is very crude, the content expressed is quite clear. Rune was able to identify key locations such as the Lord's Mansion, the Wasek Family, and the southeastern part of Beloberg.
From the above, the number of personnel sent by the old lord to each place can be completely confirmed, and the assassin with a dark breath in the mouth of the octopus wizard must be the executioner.
After Lu En got this useful information from the wizard, he couldn't help but feel a wave of excitement in his heart.
He immediately took this information and headed to the Wasek family.
For the rest of the matter, we still need to discuss it with Niels before making a decision.
As for that, I think I still need to go to the old lord’s mansion.
That place is the key among the keys.
