Chapter 205: God Doesn't Know Ghosts
After dodging the last round of patrols, Worf and his party had reached the foot of the hill where the palace of Tessali was located, outside a sparse grove.
The normal way to and from the palace was only a smooth loess road, cleared of trees that obstructed the way, magically smoothed out the gravel on the road, and designed to climb slowly up and down the hill to the small walls that guarded the palace.
This group of small walls of the royal palace, in terms of scale, is definitely not as good as the 10-meter-high majestic wall outside the royal city, but the purpose of the palace wall and the royal city wall is very different after all, whether it is the object that needs to be guarded, or the number of people who need to be stationed, the strength of the garrison, etc., are very different.
So a wall that is only about 5 meters high is enough.
The trees in the grove were sparse, but even in the dark night with a small moon, with a little care, they could barely hide themselves from the royal guards stationed on the walls of the palace.
But if you really think that you can successfully sneak over the grove and climb the wall by just carefully avoiding the eyes of the royal guards, you are very wrong!
"When we reached the second stage, the seemingly undefended grove was actually more heavily defended than the city guards who patrolled the streets!
These were the words of Keith Swordsman when he introduced the infiltration route designed by the three of them to Worf Dashi and the others, and this so-called second stage obviously refers to the small woods they are facing now, and it is estimated that no one would have imagined that in such a sparse jungle that is quiet, illuminated by a dazzling blue light overhead, there would be such a secret whistle, so as to guard and guard against all the gangsters who have ill intentions towards Tessali.
Even if there were still twenty-seven wooden houses hidden in the forest that could keep watch over each other, ensuring that while reducing the number of people, there would be as few dead spots as possible, but even the "invaders" who had already known that someone was standing guard in the forest and were eyeing each other would find it difficult to find exactly where the sentry post they were hiding, let alone the soldiers on duty in the forest.
And this actually shows in disguise that even if the woods are sparse and the space that can accommodate people to hide is not very sufficient, it is still not enough for Keith Swordsmen and others whose strength has reached the level of swordsmen, at least the soldiers standing guard definitely do not have the strength of swordsmen, and the sensitivity of observation is not enough for them to find swordsmen who want to hide, of course, the premise is that these swordsmen are swordsmen like Keith Swordsmen, and they can know the location and layout of the twenty-seven sentry posts in the grove.
In this way, the first stage is obviously that there seems to be no law in the royal city, but in fact there is a set of regular patrol teams, and those who are suspicious during the patrol time have a chance to be caught and investigated, which can prevent a large number of dangerous elements from making trouble.
And Prime Minister Davide, who is responsible for the security of the royal city, prepared six sets of patrol routes for the city guard patrols, which are different every day, and completely inconsistent with the seven days of a week, which makes people unable to deduce the rules, and the soldiers also implement the rotation system, when patrolling, they have their own royal guards who are responsible for managing the patrol team to issue patrol routes and instructions, so that the secret of the patrol is only circulated among a few reliable people, and the result of extremely strengthening the secrecy is that the security effect produced by the patrol becomes significant, and the most important thing is to save worry and effort。
Prime Minister Davide's two sets of plans are not only clever and proper arrangement of the guard process, saving time and effort, but also allowing dozens of ordinary soldiers with a limited level to manage a huge royal city that is not enough for hundreds of people to manage in an orderly manner, which is almost the limit of manpower utilization for the backward management level of the Rizer continent.
And the ratio of troops arranged in these two stages is also different, the first stage of patrols is all aimed at criminals in the city, and they don't need to solve problems quickly like the police in modern society, so there is no need for those cavalry who still have to raise horses, all are warrior type city guards are enough, they only need to do a "siren" The duty is to sound the alarm in time when encountering a major event, so that all units can quickly get ready for the twelve-point spirit, and the rest is to be able to cooperate with each other, to be able to save their lives, and to be able to cooperate with the timely suppression of trivial matters, etc., in fact, it is similar to the urban management.
And the personnel in the forest are far behind, first of all, their responsibilities are in the same direction, they are all "sirens", but the city guards in the forest are hiding in the dark, and their alarm level is even higher, after all, they will probably not have any good ideas to come to this forest secretly, and the strength will not be worse, if there is no "inner ghost" like Keith Sword Master Leading the team, the strength of the person who can pass the first stage must have the level of the great sword master, but this is also deliberately done by Prime Minister Davide, these city guards who are only at the level of a swordsman will not be the opponent of the great sword master, and if there is a conflict with a great sword master in public, the impact on the order of the royal city is too great, it is better to let him be careless, expose it in the woods, and then solve it in the woods!
Besides, the secret sentry in the forest is all a configuration of four archers and two warriors, because only cold arrows can cause a little more trouble to the great swordsmen, and delaying time is the best way to deal with this kind of invader, and these two warriors are also used as a diversion when infiltrating the invasion is a group of people, just in case.
Two simple lines of defense were enough to rule out 99.99 percent of the dangerous actions that took place in the royal city of Tessali. The management ability can also be seen, coupled with the excellent reputation he has established over the years, it is no wonder that he can be deeply trusted by the royal family and the people of Tessali, and the remaining ten thousandths are almost all strong people at the level of the great sword master, but for the palace wall stationed in the royal guard, it is much simpler, not only to deal with these intruders who come to the door, but also to spend so much time to deal with the intrigues and tricks that are more than ten thousand times, life is easy and efficient.
......
With the three Keith swordsmen leading the way, there was no accident in the second stage of the defense line, and they were easily broken through, and no one was alarmed during the period, and before they knew it, the six people of Worf Dashi were only left with this five-meter-high wall in the palace!
