Chapter 199: Suddenly
On the thirty-fifth day after the flotilla set out, the Adès gathered again at the Viscount's Palace, and this meeting was no longer in the original office and study, but moved to a conference hall, where not only Adès and the others, but also Molly's management team.
Molly stood on the main seat, holding a piece of information in her hand, looked at everyone, and said with a solemn expression: "The two days have been all bad news, let me talk about this information first, this is a piece of information sent by the royal capital, which was obtained by the Lord of Dawn Temple in the palace, plus the temple's own intelligence system, and analyzed the situation."
Fifteen days ago, in the southern part of the royal capital, in the northern part of our country, two viscounts and an earldom were attacked by unknown persons, information was interrupted, trade routes were interrupted, and casualties were unknown. ”
The atmosphere in the hall suddenly froze, and most of them frowned.
The viscounty generally has some background and will have a lot of power, not to mention the county, where there will basically be an army and a temple, the difference is only to see which god the temple introduced by the county at that time.
With such strength, there is no news coming out, you can imagine how powerful the people who attack them are, and there are all kinds of legal professions, can't they run if they can't beat them? All kinds of teleportation techniques can be teleported out casually, and in this situation, it is very likely that the enemy has a magic like a dimensional anchor, which restricts the teleportation technique.
Molly continued: "The Temple of the Lord of Dawn has a small church in the county, and when the temple did not receive any news from this church for three consecutive days, the temple sent personnel to investigate, but unfortunately, the person sent was also missing.
Later, the archbishop asked our lord for help, and all the people in the royal capital participated in the great prayer, and our lord sent an oracle. Just two words, the devil ......"
Molly's management finally couldn't help but talk, and a buzzing noise rang out in the hall.
Ades, they couldn't help frowning. Anna and Eves snorted softly.
If such a large area is interrupted, it is likely that the same force has launched an attack on the area. The temple of the Lord of Dawn has also received an oracle, plus some other forces and temples in the royal capital, each with its own source of information, and within three or five days, it will be possible to know what is happening.
If there is only the military power of the royal capital, it may be necessary to send people to investigate, but with the temple, as long as the temple prays to the gods. This kind of thing can't be hidden from the gods at all.
So what Molly is saying now is basically certain that it was caused by demons.
Anna stood up on the side and asked with confusion, "Then if we lose the battle with that bastard, will the viscount be infiltrated by the demons, and when the demons attack together this time, the viscount of Anslow will be the same as them."
Completely cut off from the outside world?"
Molly nodded and said, "That's what I guessed, and now, there are a lot of territories that have been attacked, but no one knows where they can be contacted." Is there still a demon lurking? ”
Hiss...... Everyone couldn't help but gasp, this is really a big problem, Ades is one of the big three of the territory. also stood up and said: "Don't worry about other people's affairs now, it doesn't matter if there are demons in our territory or not, as long as it's not the kind of high-end that can't be beaten, we can solve it, everyone has to believe in the combat power of the Viscount Mansion." ”
These words reassured everyone a little, especially the beauties, who knew that Adès's combat power was growing very rapidly now, and when he couldn't do anything, he could let Verina come back to help him. There was such a fifteenth-level priest here, in such a remote area as the southern forest. Hardly anyone could resist her.
Seeing that everyone's expressions softened, Adès continued: "I think. Taking advantage of the interruption of information, coupled with the fact that the fiefdom nobles had an unclear relationship with the bastards, and the demons appeared around the bastards, we can relate this matter. ”
Molly's eyes lit up, and her head was calculating rapidly.
Anna's reaction was faster, and she slapped the table and said: "The people who can hold a meeting here are all their own people, all loyal retainers and partners who have passed the test of the Anslow family's low tide, then I will be honest, I have long been impatient with those fiefdom nobles, let's discuss the opinion of His Excellency Clifford, and see if it is possible to pull those fiefdom nobles into the water." ”
Molly calculated clearly, she didn't agree with Anna's statement, and said directly: "Don't think about it, just go and destroy it, the dead man's mouth will not refute, while most of the knights under those barons are now at sea, there are not many people with combat effectiveness, and it is a surprise attack, I think the resistance will not be great."
When the time comes, it will be said that the viscount has also been attacked, and the matter of the illegitimate child has been recorded in the king before, and everyone knows who has a relationship with whom, and now their remnants of the forces are attacking the viscounty, and they want to advance and retreat together with those territories that have lost contact with us in the north, and no one is afraid of them to verify. ”
Yunni said beside her, "Then we don't wait for news from the fleet?"
"Don't wait!" the three of them replied to Yunnie in unison.
"Anna, you take Molly and Eves's team, I take Mia and Winnie, first destroy those two slightly weaker barons, and then gather to take Barony Scott, act quickly, we don't need to occupy the territory, we just need to rush in and kill those barons and their families. "Adès began to command the crowd and divide the troops to clear them.
Mia said weakly on the side: "Then don't you wait for the king's purge? Generally, such a large-scale demonic invasion, whether it is a nobleman or a royal family, they will join hands to resist." ”
Adès said to everyone: "Can't wait, the opportunity is fleeting, if those fiefdom nobles come to their senses, then they will ask the royal capital for a group, and it will be difficult to associate them with the demons at that time." ”
"Then what if the royal capital doesn't admit it?"
Molly was a little happy at this time, so she said: "The royal capital must be anxious now, there is no news from one county and two viscounts, how can you take care of three little barons, besides, our geographical remoteness has always been ignored, those people die when they die, do you think the royal capital really cares?"
It is also said that just one county, generally speaking, there are three viscounts under the jurisdiction of each viscount, and each viscount has three barons under the jurisdiction, plus those two viscounts, at least fifteen barons have had an accident in this incident, and adding three more is not a big deal.
And this is just an ordinary establishment, if the territory is relatively large, it is likely that there are more than three barons under the jurisdiction of a viscount, and now that things have just begun, who knows if such a thing will happen again in the future, in case the demon spreads, it will be a demon disaster, and then the whole kingdom will not survive or not.
Molly was most familiar with this division of forces and the political struggle with the nobility, and she continued: "So this time we must be fast, after we have to shrink back and prepare for the demons that may spread."
The city defense army has now been eliminated and has been replaced by our own people, so after we go out this time, the city defense army must be on first-class security, and at the same time monitor the merchant organizations in the Black Iron Port, and beware of them secretly causing trouble.
And the consul, you must closely check the residents of the port, and arrest any suspicious person first, don't be afraid of causing a riot, the city defense army will cooperate with you. With that, Molly glanced at Adès to see if he had anything to add.
"Summoning Xena and Jane back, stationing them in the castle, centering them, and passing the news to Uncle Hunter and Cardinal by the way, so that they can be on guard.
Half of the guards were selected to go out with us, and whoever had the highest ability would go, and the opportunity to make a contribution had arrived.
As long as they make military achievements, I think the two ladies will definitely not be stingy with titles and territories, so don't let go of such an opportunity, and think more about your family and future generations. ”
While replenishing the plan, Adès did not forget to boost morale, and the people under him had the lure of titles and territories, and they would be brave enough to take the lead in battle.
Anna, as the guardian of the current lord, slapped the table and said to everyone: "Everyone acts separately, and, although I trust everyone, there are still some things that need to be guarded against, so you must act collectively, and no one is allowed to leave the team, even if you go to the toilet, at least three people must go together until we come back, this is related to everyone's interests in the future, please supervise each other, understand?"
"Understood......" The group of stewards, stewards and consuls under his command immediately became wary of each other, for fear that the other party would pass on the news, causing Anna and Molly's actions to be sabotaged, and their titles and territories slipped away from their eyes.
At sea, sure enough, the Anslow family's ships were on the march at the last time, and there was no need to draw lots at all, because they were the only ones left who had not gone out, on the night of the third day, which was the thirty-three days of this voyage.
In the second half of the night, the pirates finally appeared, and the eight-brig battle sails appeared on the left side of the fleet without warning, while the viscounty's ships were only five, three belonging to the Anslow family, and two belonging to three small merchants to raise funds.
On the lookout, the sleepy lookout was dazed to find a huge black shadow on the left side of the fleet, and was rushing towards his fleet, and his worried eyes suddenly opened the corners of his eyes in fright, and he shook the alarm bell installed on the mast, and shouted at the same time: "There is an enemy attack on the left! There is an enemy attack on the left side of the fleet! An unknown number of !!
The first mate on duty in the captain's room turned his head to observe when he heard this, and sure enough, he found a dark shadow in the shape of a ship, and he also rang the alarm bell and roared at the horn that connected the cabins. (To be continued) R640
