After thinking about it, Rick felt that he would not be able to hide this matter for long in the future, and it was also Catherine's credit to be able to bring out Elle more smoothly this time, and it was not too much of a problem to sue her, so he nodded and said: "That's right, I'm going to abandon the ship in the next county, and I will set up a ten-person magic array, and it shouldn't be a problem to imagine teleporting hundreds of people." ”

Catherine, who received an affirmative answer, finally sat down on the stool straight, listening to Rick's tone as if it was a simple thing to set up a ten-person magic teleportation array, which was completely different from her cognition, what is a magic teleportation array? Even the royal family didn't have much ability to set it up, and as far as she knew, it was only a few border cities that set up a single magic array as a teleportation site for emergency military information, and it seemed that it hadn't been used for decades, just because the cost was too huge.

And Rick is also different in her eyes, before she only decided to help Rick for the sake of her boudoir sisters, but now Rick not only has two sages to help him, but also can set up a teleportation array at will, doesn't that mean that he has the capital to go to various places at any time?

So did she do some less help this time? Catherine felt like a fool, others didn't need her help at all, but she still put so much thought into this person, Catherine felt that she had done a useless job, and it was a joke in vain, how did she know that the imperial capital and even the entire Sanjiang Plain belonged to the land of unstable spatial energy, and setting up a teleportation array was purely to find death, but she didn't know that Catherine, who was in a depressed mood, walked to her cabin like this when Rick felt inexplicable.

"What happened to Sister Catherine?" Elle asked strangely, what the woman's premonition made Elle feel, but she was not sure. Because that might be too small...

"I don't know. There's something strange about you, Sister Catherine. Now I'm going to take the people of the Knights of the Sea Transformation Rose to my Black Rock City to station, I really don't know what kind of guess it will be at that time? ”

"You!" Elle thought of some rumors in the imperial capital, and when she thought of the rumored Knights of the Sea Reform going to Rick's territory, that scene was really a little exciting?

Without saying a word all the way, the warship went straight to the border of the two princes, but unfortunately Rick's promise to be a kidnapper was about to be broken, and under the angry eyes of a large group of people who didn't know the situation and ran to pick up Princess Elle, Rick Bober took more than 300 people including Ai Ba and Catherine back to Black Rock City directly under the help of the teleportation array. All that group was left was an abandoned teleportation array that had exhausted its mana......

Back in Black Rock City, Rick took Ark to live in the Lord's Mansion to meet Natasha, and then was kicked out by two women who had been chatting, and Rick had a headache to set up a station for the women of the Sea Reform Rangers, which was a trouble, and it had to make it easy for them to go to the streets (Catherine's request), and so that they would not disturb the people (Rick thought so), and he couldn't let them mix with ordinary GIs, so he couldn't send them to the camp of ordinary GIs, right?

Fortunately, most of the lord's guard was also stationed directly in the fortress under construction in the Great Wasteland, and Rick simply didn't do anything. The two are endless, and the lord's guard is directly removed from the necessary manpower to protect the lord's mansion. The rest of the men and horses were dragged out and stationed in the Great Wasteland Fortress, and the vacated barracks were given to these neat and delicate knights, which were relatively tidy and could still be kept alive for them to live in.

But in just one day, the question came out, where did the knights, who were originally directly under the navy, come from the Great Wasteland? Especially Black Rock City, a large city built in the Great Wilderness, has the style of a big city in the ancient Chinese Kingdom, which immediately made this group of delicate knights shout that they had come to the wrong place, and made the entire Black Rock City riot and dusty.

But at night, they stopped doing it again, the weather in the great wilderness was hot, and the female knights walked around Black Rock City for another day, and the dust of the wasteland did not let go of their occasional knights who were not exposed to the armor, not only because of patting the dust and occasionally showing spring and causing a lot of street fights, they were also dusty and dusty, where are these female knights who love to be strong and love beauty are willing to do it?

Asking the station to repair the bathroom, because there were no women here at all, of course only some public baths were built, so how dare they wash?

Rick didn't fold, so he had to be depressed and allocate funds to build, and it was also a rapid construction of a large amount of work, because most of the magic regiment directly under the lord was transferred to the Great Wasteland to build a fortress, the magicians in Black Rock City were already scarce, so he had to ask for help from the magician union and other trade associations in the city at a high price.

Oh, my God! It's only the first day!

In the study of the lord's mansion, looking at the report of the loss that needs to be compensated and the need for appropriation on the first day, Rick's heart is dripping blood, if he didn't know that the cost of letting these female knights go to the hotel is estimated to be higher, Rick estimates that he even has the heart to die, so he has to give Bonn some luxury goods brought by the earth, and let him quickly find a channel to sell the money, otherwise the finances of Black Rock City, which is already stretched thin due to the construction of two fortresses, is estimated to be bankrupt by these witches.

Shaking his head, Rick had to pick up another report and a few letters, since Rick went to the imperial capital, a half-legion was directly sent to the Great Wasteland to build the Wasteland Fortress, all the forces did not move because they couldn't figure out what Rick wanted to do, and because Rick used magicians and a large number of high-priced hired workers at all costs, the construction speed of the Wasteland Fortress was extremely fast, and now it has been built into a basic part, and is increasing the intensity of building other facilities, hoping to form a preliminary defense in a few days.

However, during this period, there were also many spies from various forces who came to investigate, but because it was a period of military management, these spies did not get any useful information, so they had to touch their heads and report to their backs, but the construction of the wasteland fortress obviously caused uneasiness among a certain force, and small groups of troops continued to come to harass, but due to the shaking of other forces, there was no large-scale battle, but every day there were dozens of people, hundreds of people encountered melee around the wasteland fortress, The biggest two even had a scene of more than 1,000 people fighting on both sides until Su two days, when the news of Rick's kidnapping of the princess came out from the imperial capital, all parties reacted, and finally understood what Rick wanted to do, who was defending, the eldest prince immediately expressed his willingness to support Rick, hoping that Rick would also support him, and the four princes, who had some "friction" with Rick's troops, also said that it was just a small action of some people and had nothing to do with it, hoping that Rick would not misunderstand, and faintly expressed the same support for Rick.

And there was no movement on the part of the second prince, it seemed that he didn't know, he didn't know, but the Ogden family had already deployed troops with great fanfare, and the entire Imperial Guard Legion's 300,000 troops collectively marched towards the Great Wasteland, this is no worse than the Sharp Claw Legion, the essence of the Haitian Empire! And there are a large number of mages to follow, and a large number of private troops in the big cities controlled by the Ogden family are also being urgently assembled, which is estimated to be not small, and it seems that "the division is famous"!

Rick smiled bitterly at their "teacher's name", is it really just for Ai'er? Or did he insult the face of the Ogden Golden Family? Although it was said in the past, but Rick Rui found something abnormal, carrying the army and the army, that is a big crime, although the city lord has a private guard, but this time the Ogden family actually raised more than 500,000 "private troops", this number is too big, right? You have used so many "private troops" to save face, and the second prince can tolerate your Ogden family admiring so many "private troops" other than the Imperial Guard Legion?

Looking at the military map on the wall, Rick's heart was flooded with a sentence: "Menacing, the picture is not small!" ”

The construction of the Wasteland Fortress directly stuck a large area of land in the Great Wasteland Corridor, reaching the eastern territory of the Second Prince to the northeast, the southern territory garrisoned by the Four Princes and the Black Sky Empire alliance to the south, the western territory of the Great Prince to the north, the barbarian tribes on the grassland to radiate to the west, and the Black Rock City territory of Paulrick to the southwest.

And the Ogden family's total army of 900,000 troops came in waves, is it really just to avenge the blood hatred, the humiliation of Princess Yixue being taken away?

Rick looked at the military map on his chair, which showed the march of Ogden's army, the names of the cities they were passing through, and the specific situation of the place, and gradually some ideas formed in Rick's brain.

It is certain that the early stage of Ogden's army must have come in the name of attacking Black Rock City, because the princess was taken and the prestige of the Ogden family is particularly preserved, imagine that the two frontier cities of the Four Princes' territory that Ogden's army needs to pass by should be placed under the order of the Four Princes to let them pass by, and the Four Princes should feel that it is better to sell face to the Ogden family now, and it is really more cost-effective to confront the 900,000 army, especially the elite of the Empire's Guardian Legion whose main force is more than 300,000.

But Rick can conclude from the news that he raised more than 500,000 "private troops" that the purpose of the Ogden family is not so simple.

After looking at the situation near the two cities that needed to pass by the territory of the Four Princes, Rick quickly found a location - Goethe City, which should be called Gothic Fortress, this is a medium-sized city, in the history of Haitian, this was once the border fortress of the Haitian Empire when it had not yet expanded its territory and was still called a kingdom, resisting the border fortress of another great kingdom that still existed in the south at that time, and it was also the frontier position to defend against the invasion of the barbarians in the western steppe! It was not until the current Southern Territory and Lamy County and other territories were included in the territory of Haitian that Goethe Fortress was changed to a city, but the outline of its fortress has not changed, and now the sea and the sky are divided into three parts, and more than a dozen cities north of the fourth prince Wellesley are disgraced because they can't withstand the joint attack of the eldest prince and the second prince, and this Goethe city has once again become Wellesley's resistance to the two elder brothers' suppression position, plus the stationing of the Black Sky Army, Goethe City has become a medium-sized fortress that has begun to take shape again after being repaired by both sides.
