Twenty Sided Dice

?

When the elves retreated, the defenders of the hub took the opportunity to rest and prepare for the next round of attacks. .しwxs They put out the flames that were still burning, stepped up the reinforcement of the remaining fire and oil storage facilities, took care of the wounded and buried the dead.

In order to prevent the threat of the ancient trees of the Elven War to the city walls, Sir Stephens came up with an idea. He checked where the ancient war tree was standing when it attacked the city wall, and asked his men to dig a ditch there and fill it with fierce fire oil. At the same time he asked the castle catapult to adjust the angle, unload the gravel, and replace it with a jar filled with lime powder. The next time the elves approached, the jars could be blocked by the war tree, but the lime powder could still drift away.

Now that the elves are doing a good job of fire protection, start spraying water. Watering the spot where the quicklime was sprinkled from the same pipe that was supposed to be sprayed with flaming oil, hoping it will surprise the elf.

At the same time, the castle has to keep burning the asphalt from now on, in response to the siege that may occur at any time. But how long will the fuel last?

"Go and drag in the old tree that was killed!" He ordered: "Send it to the back and chop it up for firewood!"

Soldiers happily opened the city gate, handed down ropes, and let the refugees who wanted to work and earn food drag their bodies. Siegel took advantage of this time to infiltrate the people out of the city, cast invisibility while everyone was not paying attention, and left silently.

After leaving the hub for a few kilometers, he used teleportation to return to Myr City.

Different from the hub castle, Heimland has become a rare paradise, and the elves who besieged the city relaxed their vigilance, and they did not pay much attention to those who went out of the city to pick crops. As long as you obediently lie down when you see an elf, and dodge and hide, the elf ranger, who has always been known for his sharp eyes, will turn a blind eye.

certainly. One or two people can do this, but if you're in a group or pulling a cart, the elves will still drive away. The arrows they fired were still accurate and fast, and several groups of people returned home injured.

"You were lucky if you didn't shoot to death." Feizac said after hearing the news, "Don't mess with the elves, the outside of the city is still their world for the time being."

The residents of Heimland have found out the temperament of the elves. Like hard-working ants, they are constantly moving things left by villages outside the city. Vegetables, grain, and some livestock that were too late to take away earlier were moved into Myr City one after another. Although the threat of the siege has not been lifted, everyone is not as nervous as it was at the beginning.

When Siegel returned to the castle, Feizac and Janet happened to be discussing things. Seeing their happy faces, Siegel was also relieved.

"Lord Lord. Good news." Feizak smiled happily, his eyes narrowed into slits. "The construction of the starting point outpost has been completed, and that boy Mo Er and his cavalry surrounded more than 300 yaks. Now the fortress is almost turned into a cattle pen, but this can solve a lot of food problems."

Janet also agreed: "The best news is not this. Moore is very progress. He is not in a hurry to kill the cow to get meat, but to cooperate with the dwarf brought by Ding Bao to feed the cow and get milk. After a while Over time, they have a constant source of cheese. It's much more stable than meat."

No wonder Feizach is so happy, he is happy for his grandson's performance. Siegel also felt that Moore's approach was a suitable action for a lord, but there were still some points to pay attention to.

"Let's just say Myr started to buy his cheese, deducted from the arrears, and counted it as his first income." Siegel said to Feizach: "He made a worthless sale. Sell ​​it cheaper, don't let me suffer."

The smile in Feizak's eyes became more obvious, because Siegel's words were affirming More's ability as a lord. Wait until all debts are paid off. More would become the official lord, and that was the real meaning behind that IOU. Because of this, Feizak wants to lower the price of cheese even more. Don't be greedy at such a critical moment and lose his future as a lord.

"Also, remind Maul. It is important to find food sources, but the first priority is to establish outposts. Find out the surrounding situation." Siegel instructed the one-eyed father: "It is still important to establish a good relationship with the barbarians. First, only with their hands. The starting point fortress can develop."

Janet said: "Yes, Moore should send someone to the western grasslands to have a look. No matter what, we must find the location of the barbarians. Unfortunately, I don't know what the barbarians lack, otherwise we can make targeted preparations."

Siegel thought for a while and said to them: "I once contacted a barbarian named Dio from the western grasslands through Erinte's relationship, and he exchanged all the treasures he had obtained by adventure for food, daily necessities, and building materials. And good weapons. We don’t have a lot of food, and the range of daily necessities is so large that I really don’t know what they are lacking. The building materials are very bulky, so it’s better to take some good weapons as gifts and let the scouts carry them with them.”

"Okay, there are quite a few in the warehouse!" Feizak said, "They were all sent by the Southern Allied Forces."

"That's it." Siegel tapped on the table, "Tell Moore, let him come steadily. I'll go to him in a while, to see what's going on at the starting point, on the one hand, and on the other hand. What other potential does the western prairie have."

Janet blinked and said suddenly: "Siegel, the dwarves have left. According to your instructions, Maul provided the dwarves with all the necessary items and received the blessing of the dwarves. They left Maul to stay. A map west of the Walled Mountains, as a symbol of friendship between the westward dwarves and Heimland. That map Maul sent back to you, and I'll have it for you in a moment."

Although he knew that such a day would come, Siegel still regretted the dwarf's departure. Those dwarves are well-informed, united, and strong in combat. If they can stay in Heimland, it will be a great help. However, they have their own ideals and will never stop their pursuit. It is meaningless to stay strong. Siegel silently blessed them in his heart, and Heim led the rest of the way by himself.

"Anything else?" Siegel asked.

"Genenis has opened up several smuggling routes, and we can already deliver goods to the Uther family and Brown Leicester territory, and then spread out through them." Feizak reported: "In order to reduce the risk of detection , it's better to downsize, a wagon at a time is the best option."

"Wagons carry a lot of things," Siegel said. "We're not rich, so two-wheelers are better. Did Johnnys say what the lords of the South lacked?"

"Food, especially food that can fill the stomachs of refugees." Feizak sighed and said to Siegel: "But we don't have much of this stuff, and most of them are still in villages controlled by elves, and we can't get them at all. ."

"You can give as much as you want, starting with the yak." Siegel said, "But things can't be given away for nothing, they need real money and silver, and then we can see if we can exchange them for other things that Myr City needs."

Janet was a little puzzled, and asked, "We have iron ore and weapons stores, and now we have a source of meat. As for magic materials, the warehouse has been filled with the purchase of a while ago. What do we need?"

"People!" Siegel said: "The elves have surrounded Heimland, and we should count how many people we have here. I want to send people to the starting point outpost, but I am afraid that the elves will find that the population is decreasing and become suspicious. Only from our family It’s easy to find someone, but if you can get in and out, the situation will be very different.”

Janet shook her head and said to Siegel, "I'm afraid this is difficult to operate. And now is not the best time to open the starting point."

"Lord Lord, Madam is right." Feizak said: "This war between the elves will probably last for a long time, and if you are smuggling meat, it will be longer than before. Not to mention the leaks. Refugees always have the risk of being discovered by elves, and it’s not worth exchanging real money for.”

"I'm not selling people, it's not buying refugees with money, it's saving people," Siegel said. "The gnome's cheese workshop, and the canning workshop that's about to start, all need people. These places I can arrange for the Heim people who know the basics to do it. Who will fill the vacancy after the Heim people leave? There are many refugees outside who can't eat or find a safe place to live. They are dying. We will bring them in. , isn't it a good thing?"

Feizak nodded, and Janet stopped talking. After a moment of silence, Janet stretched out her arm and hugged Siegel: "You're right, we should do this, but I think we have to control the scale."

The one-eyed father also said: "Lord Lord, I will implement your request, but please don't accept too many people. In fact, Haim Territory has just reached the point where people cannot starve to death, and has not completely escaped the threat of starvation. Only After the winter ~www.readwn.com~ the land near the starting point will be cultivated, and then it will gradually improve."

"Okay, you all get ready first." Siegel nodded and agreed: "If you encounter difficulties, especially women and children, help them if you can. I think the southern lords won't let young and middle-aged men leave the castle. , those are potential sources of troops, we can't grab them."

Janet laughed suddenly: "I thought you became a saint, but you turned out to be a robber. You use the word so well!"

"Okay, stop joking." Siegel deliberately raised his face and asked, "There has been no news of Mana. Has the chain of castles in the City Wall Mountains been opened?"

Feizac came to the desk, rummaged through the pile of papers, and took out two scrolls with the help of thin blue lines: "It's not that there is no news, these two copies were passed on by carrier pigeons a month ago and two weeks ago, respectively. Back. Mana has crossed the top of Mora and established contact with two castles to the north. They both agreed to let our caravan pass. But Mana doesn't know what our caravan can provide, so it's just intentional Cooperation."

' "Okay, tell her about our situation here, and let her be vigilant." Siegel said to Janet and Faizac: "The Elves and Mage Federation have entered a full-scale war, and the situation is finally about to change. !" (To be continued)
