"I need enough building materials, labor, and ore. Workers, in particular, are the most urgently needed part of me at the moment. I must do everything I can to make this castle even better, and only then can I stop the army you are talking about. ”

"Of course, food and all kinds of high-quality living materials are also essential. In fact, it's what I need the most. ”

Su Hao looked at Sazabi with a calm gaze, and his voice was as unquestionable as an oath: "You are honest with me, so there is no need for me to hide anything from you." According to the analysis of the information you just said, your castle will definitely not be able to hold it, and even the entire territory will be occupied. The disparity in numbers is so great that you won't even be able to survive the first wave of those guys' attacks. ”

Viscount Sazabi's face turned pale, apparently reminiscent of something unpleasant. He kept licking his lips and asked astringently, "You, do you have anything good?" ”

"Take all your people and move them all."

Su Hao's tone was very resolute, and there was no doubt at all: "While Count Larsen has not yet attacked, transport all the valuables in your castle." Your family can be protected here, and as you can see, I've put a lot of effort into this castle, and it's incredibly strong in defense. You should go out for a walk and take a look at the construction site outside, and you will understand that I am not lying to you. As long as you rely on this castle to hold on, no one can attack it. ”

Viscount Sazabi finally understood Su Hao's words, and shouted in surprise and anger: "Why, you, you don't plan to fight back with me?" ”

"Fight back?"

For the word that came out of the mouth of Viscount Sazabi, Su Hao only felt extremely ridiculous: "What strength do you have to fight back?" As you yourself said, Count Larsen's army is numbering in the tens of thousands, and the total number of troops you can integrate will not exceed two thousand. It's not much better on my side. I could make up four hundred people. What do you think are the odds of winning against tens of thousands of troops with this little strength? ”

There was no trace of blood on Viscount Sazabi's face. He muttered, "Four hundred, only four hundred...... You, don't you call yourself a duke? Are you deceiving me? ”

"My 400 warriors are not the 400 pieces of waste you imagined"

Su Hao sneered, walked to the wall, picked up a heavy sword hanging on the wall as a decoration, held both ends of the heavy sword in front of Sazabi, and bent it stiffly. Finally, with a loud sound, the all-steel sword broke in two.

He was wearing a power battle armor, not to mention a heavy sword, even if it was a steel ingot, Su Hao could smash a mark on it with one punch. In order to increase the ornamentation, he deliberately did it very hard, and the process was very slow. In the face of this incredible power, Viscount Sazabi couldn't help but open his mouth wide.

"Every soldier under my command has the same or even stronger combat power than me."

Su Hao further increased the temptation in his words: "They alone are enough to fight against thousands of people. You also know that the last time you sent Phocas over, all his troops were annihilated, but not a single one of them was harmed on my side. That's the benefit of occupying the terrain defense. It's not that I'm talking badly, your castle isn't strong at all, it's barely strong at best. How long do you think you can hold out in a battle of tens of thousands of people? At that time, even if you want to escape, you won't be able to leave. ”

These words immediately had a peculiar effect on Viscount Sazabi. He thought for a long time, and nodded heavily and slowly: "I'll order people to pack up their things and send their families over first." ”

It was still the noble women who were sold in the intelligence who had a strong influence on Sazabi. Death, that's it. No one wants their wives and daughters to become slaves. In that case, I am afraid that even the dead will not be able to rest in hell.

As for money, Su Hao doesn't look like a person who is short of money.

Several times before and after, he took out the kind of exquisite silver coins to pay the bill. Of course, Viscount Sazabi will also send some spies in the caravan, this Duke of the Red Dragon is a very bold fellow, as long as there is no problem with the quality and quantity of goods, he has never defaulted on payment. Coupled with the value of the silver coins themselves, some of the nearby bazaars have gradually gathered on the periphery of Kunming Castle. It is becoming more and more prosperous, and it is no longer the barren and impoverished mountain village of the past.

Two days later, hundreds of workers and a large number of timber and stone arrived at the "Kunming" castle. By order of the Viscount of Sazabi, all workers and supplies were provided free of charge. Arriving was accompanied by the Viscount's family, who were escorted by dozens of cavalry and hundreds of infantry. In terms of etiquette, Su Hao did indeed do an impeccable job. He arranged rooms inside the castle that were spacious enough to accommodate these people. The closure between the residential and military areas works very well, and there is no need to worry about disturbing each other and causing bad effects during the fighting.

The construction of the castle is almost complete. Su Hao transferred two hundred specially selected mercenaries from Konoha Town, connecting the people who had stayed here before, and together formed an army of more than four hundred people. In this day and age, there are no ranged weapons that can inflict damage on steel-concrete buildings. The timber and stone that Sazabi was asked for were also just to cover people's eyes. However, they can really come in handy after this battle is over. After all, reinforced concrete had to be brought from the Overworld, and it had to be used as a priority for fortifications. As for the living room, it is completely possible to use the ordinary materials of this world.

Su Hao will not be very kind because he can't see death. If when he first came to the third stage world, he was unfamiliar with the role and effect of the space converter, then now Su Hao has truly realized the importance of this device to the human empire.

Taking Konoha Town as an example, in the space field, with the improvement of the construction of the "Kunming" castle, the material assistance of the space world to the main world is particularly important. Konoha no longer needs to buy food from the Empire. Although the textile technology in the space field is primitive, it can produce good quality cotton and linen, which also solves the needs of the townspeople in Konoha in clothing. The third stage of the main world empire border has a harsh climate and barren land, and fresh vegetables and fruits from the space realm enrich the menu of the townspeople of Konoha Town. It also produces bacon, sausages, hams, etc., and just last week, Su Hao even brought back hundreds of fat pigs and dozens of beef cattle.

The brewing technology of liquor in the space field can only be described as average. A large amount of grain was purchased, and it was turned into a spirit in Konoha Town. This kind of mutual trade is also a complementary method that Su Hao came up with by chance. After all, it is easy to arouse suspicion when buying in large quantities without producing them. If you want to gain a foothold in the world of the space realm, in addition to strong force, you must also have special goods that are convincing enough and enough to tempt the people here.

Imperial law strictly prohibits the delivery of any objects with technological elements into the space realm, or that can enhance the technological power of the space world. Alcohol and handicrafts are excluded from this restriction. Porcelain has not yet appeared in this world, and Su Hao is also temporarily busy strengthening the castle and mines, and does not have much energy to carry out these things. However, once it is truly consolidated, it is bound to become an important cargo distribution center in the space world. This is entirely due to the location of the spatial channel settings. Su Hao can get a large amount of gold and silver from this world and bring it back to the main world in exchange for more material foundation. This kind of thing has a bit of a smuggling connotation, but as long as no one notices it, it will naturally not bring any negative effects.

Therefore, the Viscount of Sazabi must live. According to the rules of the Red Griffin Kingdom of the Space Realm: if a nobleman in the fief dies and there are no descendants left to inherit the title, the fief must be handed over to the king.

A new lord may not be easier to deal with than the Viscount of Sazabi. At the same time, it is necessary to repeat the previous rounds of inducement and threats. This kind of thing is boring to do and also has to spend a lot of time to see the results. In contrast, a living Viscount of Sazabi is certainly more useful than a corpse killed in battle.

Su Hao did not deceive Sazabi. He really wanted to help the Viscount. As it stands, there is no more suitable lord than this guy. As long as he firmly guarded the zircon veins in the remote mountain range, Su Hao could free up his hands and continue to look for more resources within the space domain.

Of course, the purpose of this qiē is to fight against the dark creatures of the Overworld.

Events are moving much faster than expected. Four days later, Sir Phocas's territory had been fully occupied, and Saben's army was at the heart of Viscount Sazabi's fiefdom. Just on the outskirts of the Viscount's castle, sporadic sentry cavalry also appeared.

Giving up Finanon City was a difficult decision to make. The city was the most prosperous part of the viscount's fiefdom, with more than 100,000 inhabitants, and it was also his vital foundation. However, after weighing the benefits and losses, Sazabi finally decided to go to the heavily guarded "Kunming" castle with all the troops and valuables that had been collected according to the previous agreement with Su Hao.

Civilians are not soldiers after all, and in the face of war, they either go into hiding or walk away. When the fighting subsides, they will gradually return here. Although it is possible to temporarily mobilize up to thousands of militias by throwing money at large quantities, they are ultimately ineffective and cannot be truly trusted.

Saben was given an empty city.

This disappointed him. Only by annihilating the nobles within the territory and killing the lord himself can it be considered a real victory. The world of the space domain has not yet exhibited concepts such as guerrilla warfare, and civilians' understanding of their own rights and interests is far less clear than that of the third stage of the main world. Their greatest use is to pay taxes to the lords, which is the basis of wealth in the out-and-out way.

It is not difficult to find out where the Viscount of Sazabi went. Surrounded by informers and defectors, many of whom knew the exact location of the castle in Kunming, many of whom wanted to get paid by the occupying forces, were ordered to be killed by a furious Saben as the most direct deterrent to other citizens.

Collision, earlier than expected.

When a thick black line appeared on the horizon, a piercing siren was already sounding over the castle of "Kunming". Groups of heavily armed mercenaries burst out of the barracks, each rushing to the familiar firing positions and turrets. The assault force quickly assembled at the designated location, the heavy machine guns and combined machine guns were released from safety, and under the guidance of the scope with a black cross, the black and cold nozzle was pointed into the distance.

Su Hao wore a complete power armor and stood alone on the tower at the highest point of the castle.

Although the design function here is a war fortress, in appearance, it retains some of the architectural characteristics of the spatial field.

Su Hao put his hands behind his back and stared into the distance.

The black line on the horizon continued to expand, and it was already visible that they were groups of armed soldiers in armor armed with swords and shields. They approached here with a steady pace, flanked by thousands of cavalry. The armor and swords glowed with a blinding metallic sheen in the sunlight, and from afar, it looked like a moving forest of steel.

The entire perimeter of the castle has long been emptied, and all kinds of temporary structures have been demolished two days ago. Everywhere there are open spaces, and the castle occupies a slope directly above the terrain slope, forming a top-to-bottom slope with the plain below. Such terrain is the result of Su Hao's careful selection. As long as there are no thermal weapons, even if you drive a trebuchet, you will have to pay a very heavy price if you want to besiege the castle completely.

Behind the castle, there are zircon mines in the remote mountains of Guò. There's a whole squad of the main legion guarding it. Although the number is small, the combat effectiveness is terrifying. Even in the worst-case scenario, Su Hao can lead the assault force and give reinforcements in a short time.

Viscount Sazabi quietly appeared behind Su Hao. His face was pale, his body and lips were trembling constantly, and cold sweat was constantly oozing from his forehead.

Unleashed his thinking consciousness, so that Su Hao knew everything around him. He didn't turn around, but waited until the viscount walked more than two meters behind him before revealing a faint smile.

"Don't worry they're just a rabble and can't rush in."

Words of comfort did not have the slightest effect. Viscount Sazabi's eyes were still straight, his teeth were clenched, and a great fear enveloped him, and his whole body was almost suffocated.

The Viscount had seen such a scene. That was during the last Kingdom War, when the King's Army fought a decisive battle between neighboring teams. At that time, the king concentrated more than 30,000 people, and the number of neighboring ** was about the same. The two sides fought on the battlefield for a full day. At night, corpses were everywhere.

The army in front of him, roughly estimated, should number more than 10,000.

Viscount Sazabi has always believed that those rumors carry a lot of moisture. Larsen was only an earl, and his fief was not very large. With his property, at best, he maintained an army of about five thousand people. It is said that the Count of Larsen moved the war in several directions at once. If 10,000 troops are invested here, it means that in other directions, the number of troops invested will be even higher.

Where did he get all this money?

Where did so many soldiers come from?

The jumbled thoughts made a mess of Viscount Sazabi's thinking. He suddenly regretted a little, and felt that he should not follow Su Hao's persuasion, but should flee to the direction of Wangcheng with his gold and silver and his family.

An army of 10,000 people is enough to completely engulf this small castle at your feet. It's like a tsunami frenzy flooding a small reef on the shore without the slightest suspense.

But now, it's too late.

Just when Viscount Sazabi had countless thoughts in his mind, there was a sudden muffled sound of "bang" outside the city in the distance.

It was a violent explosion, and dozens of figures were thrown from the ground, centering on the explosion point, spreading in all directions in a circle. It was an invisible and immense force that created a terrible circle of death in the dense crowd. Many people were affected and pushed down, and many severed limbs could be seen flying in the air, although the distance was too far to be heard clearly, Viscount Sazabi could imagine how miserable and terrifying the explosion scene would be. What screams and moans of pain filled it?

Looking at this scene from afar, Su Hao's curved lips became more and more upturned, and the smile became thicker.

Landmines have always been the most useful weapon for defense. The Imperial Magnetic Energy Mine is so powerful that it can be controlled by two methods: automatic touch pressure and remote induction. Once exploded, it will be extremely lethal within a radius of tens of meters around. Advanced technology is used in warfare very comprehensively, human beings will never hesitate to damage the enemy, steel balls and fragments fly instantly, as long as the cold weapon army on the opposite side dares to continue to move forward, the number of deaths will increase exponentially as the distance from the castle approaches.

Behind him, there was a voice from Viscount Sazabi's incomparably excited, but also mixed with strong fear: "So, what is that?" ”

Su Hao did not turn around, nor did he explain directly. He smiled and said, "You should be glad you made a wise choice." Here you are very safe. They can't get far on this plain. Perhaps, everyone will have to stay. ”

Mines exploded one after another, and the dense crowd began to scatter in both directions. The world of the space realm has not yet evolved into battle formations, and both infantry and cavalry are only gathered and distributed according to different types of troops. Mines don't matter who you are, there are not so many mercenaries who monitor the battlefield through the guò tactical telescope. They only look at the number of people, and they detonate mines wherever they are. All in all, in the most effective way, inflict maximum casualties on the opponent.

The armies outside the city began to run, and both cavalry and infantry sped up. Human beings are good at learning in the environment, and the imminent death has made the nerves of living people particularly sensitive, and the brains have become more flexible. Although I don't know which piece of land is really safe under my feet? But they have come to realize that the more people who gather together, the more dangerous it becomes.
