A hint of cunning flashed on the viscount's face, but the fat on his face concealed his expression: "I have sent people to reconnoitre, and those savage mountain Karui people are still fighting with the Karui people of the Southern Peninsula. The tribes that went down the mountain to raid the border this time are estimated to be not as large as in previous years, and they only have those simple wooden ladders as siege equipment, and we can completely defeat their totem warriors who fly on rocks and walk on the ground with strong castles and military heavy crossbows!After this time, I will donate 6666 gold coins to the church to show my devotion to our gods~~"

The Bishop, with his curly French hair, smiled and said gently: "The pious will be blessed and watched by God." The distribution of the church in the kingdom of Oriath in the southern part of the continent has brought me good news. Although the defense line of the fortress group in the west of the Oriath Kingdom was broken by surprise attack, and the entire western territory was looted and destroyed, their king and nobles had reacted in time and gathered a large number of cavalry to counterattack back in the Great Plains of the Midwest. “

"Kudugu's False God's men seem to have given up on continuing to attack to the east, and instead continue to support a large number of their men, and are attacking the western mountain range in a mighty way. If those mountain Karui people are also co-opted by them one by one, then next year, we may not be dealing with the loose mountain barbarian tribes. Rather, it is a whole united kingdom of the Western Karui people. “

"But the Oriaths certainly won't sit idly by and watch them continue to grow. I have received news that our wise King has sent someone to secretly contact the Oriath to form an alliance, and although it will not be possible to negotiate any result anytime soon, if the Karui want to continue to expand, they will definitely be attacked by the two countries immediately. But that's not something we have to worry about. ”

Viscount Shelley was stunned by this news, frowned and thought for a long time before he said: "Then if they attack northward on a large scale, won't our territories around the border bear the brunt~~ I'm afraid it will be difficult to resist!"

The bishop, who was also broad and majestic in his bust, waved his arm as thick as a rolling pin indifferently and said soothingly: "Everything is expected by God. As long as you are devout and serve the gods, you will get the blessings of the gods~ Why should you be afraid of a few barbarians?"

The archbishop stomped the heavy golden scepter a few more times, and the thud seemed to crack the marble floor of the castle: "If the followers of the false gods dare to step into the traditional territory of my god! Our valiant warriors can use huge rune ordnance to destroy those barbarian warriors who always charge indiscriminately in battle formations with the physical advantage of being as tall as a giant bear and as powerful as a rhinoceros, and the huge city defense machinery will smash them all into flesh and blood!"

"Come to think of it, even those barbarian wizards who can transform into magical beasts and spit blazing lightning are very difficult to deal with. But they only have a single attack spell to transform into a magic beast, and most of them lack protective spells such as [Protective Arrow] and [Deflection Force Field], and few of them dare to face our AIDS people's rune crossbow!"

"When necessary, the patron saints of our gods will assist your local nobles in defending the castle fortresses built in the difficult terrain, using the superiority of our armament and centuries-old frontiers to drain every drop of blood of the barbarian heretics. We must not let them go near the territory around our inland sea, otherwise it will affect the customs and commercial tax revenue of the entire kingdom and the church up to millions of gold coins every year!"

......

Just as Baron Garcia, who we had crossed, was frustrated and rushed back to the territory in a carriage, Chen Xuyuan and the five of them were eating in the lobby of a [Homeinn Chain Hotel] with one board and lodging, while eating and taking the opportunity to listen to the news.

I heard that the owner behind this inn is their local lord.

This kind of town with a population of only three or four thousand people, even there are only four or five places to drink, except for the [Home Inn Hotel] where Chen Xuyuan and Bruno are located, which is the largest one, and the customers are mostly scholars, military officers, tax collectors and other middle-level people in the territory with a bit of status and small money, as well as passing nobles and large and medium-sized caravans to provide decent food and accommodation services.

Of course.

If guests are willing to spend a few gold coins, they can also help people to provide some special and relaxing [Bed Premium Hourly Service].

The taverns in the other territories were cheaper, mostly for those low-level laborers such as foot merchants, coolies, blacksmiths, coachmen, etc., providing a place to relieve daily fatigue and chat and brag, and even the cost of recruiting prostitutes and guns only cost a few silver coins.

The other three were all sent out by Master Chen, and asked them to wander around shopping, as well as drink and inquire about those cheap taverns and other gathering places of the lords, and continue to pay attention to various local information in a timely manner.

Although women appear in taverns where men are predominant, there will always be some idiots who coax whistles and rub oil, but as long as Patyusha's ability to cast spells shows their ability to cast spells, with the identity of the caster, no matter which town they are in, it is definitely enough to suppress those reckless men who still have a little brain.

As a matter of fact.

In the afternoon, Chen Xuyuan only heard about the rise in prices of some unimportant foreign commodities and food from those customers and merchants, and it was still some outdated business information, but he could still conclude that even the AIDS Kingdom was collecting military supplies, and it was obviously not very stable.

That's when it happened.

Behind the hotel lobby, there was a faint noise of men and women scolding and the sound of crockery tables and chairs crashing and breaking.

And in a large room on the west side of the hotel.

Sansa, the hotel's shopkeeper, was half-lying on the bed with a visibly dark red slap mark on her face, her makeup melted with wet tears, and the blue bags under her eyes made her look haggard.

The sturdy middle-aged man in front of him was full of stubble, and his skin was rough and dark as if it had been blown by the sea breeze all year round, but his face was much healthier than ordinary people, after all, he was the captain of the local baron's guard, except for the recent frequent urging of the baron lord to often engage in "ten miles of training in the field", training with soldiers under the scorching sun and the cold wind, he usually has no worries about food and clothing.

Even if it is this [chain hotel], Lord Baron has also handed over the management of his family, which shows his belief in him on weekdays.

It is precisely because of this that he felt more and more anxious, and today the two quarreled again because of a little quarrel, and they also beat their newly married wife for just three months.
