Chapter 12: The Sinkhole!
If you go back to the old life of the dead ghost, you will know that this product is also a good student who often visits the library. It's a pity that it has nothing to do with learning, and the time is all about reading love poems and love songs.
Get!
Anyway, it's all mixed with the library.,It's at least reasonable to change the amorous species to a scholar (pseudo).。
Martin pressed his hands on the table, expanding his body as much as he could, making himself look more imposing, though he himself felt that it was useless, because in front of him was a group of thick arms with the back of a tiger.
"First of all, what about the Interior Officer of Lorrainburg?"
The Ranger Knight, who had previously introduced himself as Charlie, immediately replied, "Dead." ”
Anyone could see the disdain on his face.
"How did you die?" asked Martin.
Charlie also wanted to say that Kuden had already taken over: "Honorable Mr. Barbarov was accidentally covered by a rain of arrows from the orc goblin archers when he was evacuated by ship in a fierce battle, and died for his country. ”
Martin's eyes widened.
You know, Bakaria admires chivalry and will not let the people evacuate in the middle of the battle, after all, without the cover of the castle, it is often a death in the wild. How could two legs outrun a four-legged cavalry?
God evacuated in a fierce battle and returned to the ship! It was clear that this cargo saw that the situation was wrong, and wanted to run away in the boat, but it was crucified by the orcs.
Originally, Bakaria was strong and weak, but now that it is good, the knights have more ample excuses.
The point is that there is no excuse and no way to vent, those civil officials are all hanging, and there is a group of old men who account for 99% of the muscles in their brains, all staring dryly.
For the first time since coming into this world, Martin began to feel some headaches. He couldn't help but look at the others, but everyone looked at him, waiting for him to come up with an idea.
They also don't want to leave the decision to a hairy boy, firstly, this hairy boy is indeed their theoretical boss, and secondly, they are out of line.
Martin waved his hand to show that the had been revealed. He rubbed his eyebrows: "Okay, first thing! I must know how many soldiers there are in Lorraineburg, how many men can be mobilized to fight, and how many there are in total. ”
Kouden stood straight: "There are 12 knights, 26 probationary knights, 44 knights, and 60 knight apprentices. 180 gunners, 42 archers. In addition, 522 men can be mobilized for battle, all of whom have basic combat training and possess at least one long sword. The total population of the territory is 1,233. ”
Martin must have almost bulged out of his eyes.
He's meowing, it's a battle frenzy, isn't it? Two-thirds of them can fight. Even if those 500 people don't need to be paid in normal times, more than a quarter of the professional soldiers, who can afford to support them?
Well, at least it's not a bunch of old and sick people.
Neither sad nor joyful, Martin quickly calmed down his emotions: "I am quite satisfied with the answer to the first question. The second question is, what is the situation of the enemy, and what about our defense?"
Kuden's mouth squirmed for a long time before he squeezed out words between his teeth: "The preliminary estimate is that there are no less than 5,000 people, of which at least 2,000 are green orcs, and the rest are goblins." Moreover, our defensive line was greatly damaged, with 31 gaps above 20 yards and only 3 intact bow towers remaining. ”
This time, if Martin's eyeballs could pop out, he would definitely jump three feet high and jump to the roof. My lungs are about to explode.
This is an ancient pit!
When he came running around, he thought that his starting point was relatively high, at least he didn't have to start as a miscellaneous soldier. Now it's okay, it's better to start a dog with equipment that depends on playing.
800 and 5000, how can this be beaten?
Kuden sighed, with an undisguised frustration on his face: "The number of orcs has suddenly increased in the last three months, you know...... Orcs and dwarves both like to play tunnels, and there are basically tunnels connecting the eight peaks of Kalas. When your father learned of this, he had already led our knights to take the initiative many times and wiped out more than a thousand orcs. Perhaps this also provoked the ferocity of the orcs, who launched a massive attack of five thousand men. We lost 800 brethren in that fight, including your father. ”
Charlie clenched his fists and gritted his teeth, "Sooner or later, we'll make those brutes pay." In that battle, we slaughtered at least 2,000 of them. ”
Martin rolled his eyes: You can't get a one-to-three battle damage in a defensive battle, are you embarrassed?
"Well, the third question, how are our food supplies?"
This time, no one talked to him, and a group of big men blushed, and no one dared to say it.
After a long time, the Knight Kuden, who was still a top tank professional, spoke: "More than half of our grain reserves were burned in the battle, and we can't survive this winter......"
Martin was also anxious and asked, "You didn't ask Your Majesty for help." ”
"Please, His Majesty Lucas Cot said that you will be allowed to inherit the duties of the Duke of Lorraine, and then that we will protect you. ”
Martin vomited three liters of blood like a fountain on the spot.
It's clear that the king has abandoned you!
Also, even his most trusted right-hand man is hanging, what else is there to do. Do you really expect a fourteen-year-old kid to turn the tide?
Now, I'm afraid that the king is ready to lose less and win. When Lorrainburg collapses, send him Martin to be a mascot in a small place, and then break up the rest of the defeated soldiers and throw them to other pioneer leaders as cannon fodder.
It sucks, no wonder the knights look like they're willing to put Martin in power.
Because no one dares to take this responsibility, now that he Young Master Ma dares to come out and carry it himself, maybe the guys below are applauding warmly in their hearts.
Martin had already seen a crow flying by outside the window, shouting as he flew, "Fool, fool!"
Martin could only sigh again and again: "Okay, now let's discuss it, how to re......"
Originally, Martin wanted to talk about reconstruction, but before the word 'build' could be spoken, his heart suddenly suffered a sharp blow.
Gilgamesh jumped out of his spiritual world, and his voice was high-pitched and stern: "Rebuild!? Such a disgusting and ugly territory branded with the rancid smell of defeated dogs, you are so embarrassed to tell me to rebuild? Burn it! It must be burned! I don't care what you think, as a king's aesthetics, I will never allow such an ugly thing to continue to exist in the world." ”
"Wait! I'll ......," Martin tried to persuade.
Question: Jin Shining, this thing has never been very obedient!
"There is no room for negotiation! The king is lonely! The king is perfect! If you can't even do this, then I'd rather destroy myself and burn it with you! Hmph! I'll give you only three days. ”
