One of the great benefits of building a fort and firing cannons in Dense Fog Town is to frighten the Butch family's tax police team to retreat. After all, Baron Bishop suffered a big loss here half a year ago, and the family descendants don't want to die unclear.

So the blockade became a joke.

was blocked in the town of dense fog for more than half a month, and the merchants couldn't hold it back for a long time.

When Powell entered the town of Fog, many caravans poured into the boundaries of the Banshee Fortress, including a carriage full of explosives.

Along with the news of the invasion of the northern army. Friedman. On the night of the Fog Town, Buch received a message from a Frontline wizard - it was Victor. Hugo's army attacked.

For the first time in his life, the Buchi patriarch was woken up in the middle of the night by a sharp knock on the door outside his bedroom. When the maid opened the door, she found that there was not only a panicked housekeeper standing outside the door, but also the captain of the mansion's guards, the commander of the city defense, and a number of high-ranking nobles.

Friedman failed to complete any of the ritualized steps. He got up from the big bed in his pajamas and asked, "What's going on?" ”

"Your Excellency, we just received a magical message from Rocky Beach that the monsters of the Black Forest are coming from the north." The butler stood in the doorway, tears in his eyes, "The message says that a powerful magic has been used in the direction of Fog Town. ”

War?

The rest of the people at the door were all solemn, and Friedman put on his own clothes and hurried to the Wizard's Tower, where there was convenient communication.

The moment he went out, Friedman was still puzzled and asked, "Hugo, he's coming to beat us?" Why did he come to hit us? It doesn't make sense. He should have interrupted Bridge City. ”

No one can answer this question. It wasn't until they arrived at the Wizard's Tower that they could get more information from the front line of Rocky Beach to the north.

It was the tax collectors who were on a blockade mission who retreated, initially because they heard a continuous loud noise coming from the direction of Fog Town. So the first blockade line retreated, driving all the tax inspectors to flee frantically and all the way back to Shitan Town.

And then......? Nope.

The front-line tax officer was too panicked, and the wizards stationed in Shitan Town sent more than a dozen warning messages in a row, all of which were gibberish calling for help. They didn't even see the enemy's hair and shouted for the enemy attack.

But Friedman didn't dare to be careless, and hurriedly ordered the organization personnel of Rocky Beach Town to go back to investigate clearly, and at the same time, the Banshee Castle also sent a team of family knights to investigate, to make sure that what was going on in Dense Fog Town with his own eyes?

The order was given, but the news of the coming war spread throughout the city.

It was as if a spark was lit at night, and the whole city burned with a bang.

When the nobles of all sizes learned the news in their sleep, they all screamed in surprise and hurriedly cleaned up. They ran out at night to ask around, wanting to know more.

On weekdays, everyone talks a lot about what will happen in case of war with the north, strong counterattacks are the mainstream, and defending the city will be criticized for being too weak. But no one thought that when the real thing came, the first thing everyone thought of was to run for their lives.

In just half an hour, the streets of the city were jammed with horse-drawn carriages trying to escape. Some want to go east, some go west, and everyone's anxious liver fire rises, and they often fight when they don't agree with each other.

The enemy didn't see it, but there were many casualties in the infighting.

The sudden chaos frightened the exiles of the Duchy of Os. When Inisha got up at night, she heard the news that the army from the north had attacked, and it had reached the town of Rocky Beach, fifty kilometers north of the city.

The princess's first thought was, 'When did Victor become so strong?' Without warning, leading a large army to force a surprise attack is not trivial.

But when I think about it, just because others can't do it doesn't mean that Victor can't do it. That kid has always been good at doing miracles. If he really fights, he will definitely not stop until he achieves his goal.

"Tarlac, why don't you fly to Rocky Beach and see what's going on?" Inisha asked her Viscount to call out of the ranks.

The haughty Viscount Tarak complied, removed the statue from his chest, released the bipedal wyvern, and rode on it to flutter its wings. The sky was indeed flying fast, and before the sun rose, more accurate information was brought back.

First of all, there was no army going south, there was a kobold engineering team that could fire artillery.

"Kobold?"

Friedman sat in the large council room, surrounded by all his elite soldiers, as well as the envoys of the Northlands, to discuss the possible outbreak of war.

Outcome......

"A group of kobolds scared my tax officers into fleeing for dozens or hundreds of miles?"

It's too hard to accept.

The lord slammed his fist on the long oval table where everyone was sitting, scaring the fat man on the other side of the table - Tarlac went to the town of Rocky Beach, and rode a two-legged dragon to bring back the tax collector.

There were more than 20 people in the hall, all of whom were disturbed by the message sent back last night. Hearing that it was a kobold doing ghosts, everyone had a sense of ridiculousness.

When will humans be scared away by kobolds?

Friedman felt embarrassed, he stared at the fat tax collector who was already peeing his pants opposite, and waved his hand viciously, "Drag this incompetent guy out and cut me down." ”

It was only then that the tax collector cried out heartbreakingly, "Your Excellency, I beg your pardon. Those kobolds are going to shoot their guns. Who would have thought that there would be kobolds who could fire guns? Have you ever seen it? Really know how to fire cannons, what a big cannon! ”

The tax collector repeatedly shouted the word 'firearm', but he couldn't save his life.

After the unlucky guy was dragged out, Friedman continued to ask angrily, "Princess Inisa, you are the only one here who knows Victor best. Hugo. What is your judgment on the current situation? ”

Inisa, on the left side of the long table, is forced to come to the meeting, and the first question falls on her. She frowned slightly at this and said, "Victor has always been non-disciplined in doing things, and I am not surprised that he has kobolds under him.

Kobolds are timid, weak, and lowly in strength, and they are really not worth mentioning in battle. But as far as I know, kobolds have a talent for digging underground tunnels and have an excellent grasp of engineering.

According to reports from the front, the kobolds appeared in Fog Town in the form of an engineering team. Let's think about it, and maybe you'll be able to deal with it better. ”

Without being reminded by Inisa, everyone at the table knew what to do next. Friedman, though annoyed, had to wait for further news before making a decision.

Within three days, a steady stream of new news came in, confirming one thing - the kobolds were indeed going to build a fortress in Fog Town, and they also had powerful magical items that could start construction in winter.

"Victor. Hugo really made the kobold build a fortress? Friedman immediately realized how much of a threat a border fortress was to him, "Hmph, he repairs, I repair." He built one, and I built two. ”
