"Lord Viscount, can you open the 'Secret Passage' now?"

Aaron's calm and calm voice caused Viscount Steve's face to change, he obviously hesitated for a moment, and then asked in a deep voice: "Aaron, how did you find out?"

Viscount Steve's words were tantamount to admitting the existence of the 'secret passage' in disguise, which also made Aaron breathe a sigh of relief, a smile of relief appeared on his face, and he said confidently: "It seems that I really didn't guess the truth, Lord Viscount, you are obviously not a stubborn fool - in fact, you have already guessed that Leo Castle will definitely not be able to hold it, right?"

Viscount Steve nodded silently, admitting Aaron's guess, and motioned Aaron to continue with his eyes, and Aaron did not live up to Viscount Steve's expectations, and said his guess with a smile:

"It seems to me that if Lord Steve Leo survived the Battle of Dawn and successfully passed the title of viscount, he will certainly not be a fool who is blindly confident in himself, because such a fool would have died in the war long ago. Pen × fun × Pavilion www. ｂｉｑｕｇｅ。 ｉｎｆｏ”

"In this way, things will seem very strange - why is the Viscount, who is not a blind self-confident and arrogant madman, still show a resolute attitude of being sure that 'the castle will definitely be defended' after hearing our report?"

"You don't even show the slightest hint of concern about it, which makes me suspicious......."

Aaron stretched out his finger and pointed to his head, smiling and continuing: "Since Lord Viscount is not like a person with brain problems, I think that your resolute performance is a deliberate 'fake show' for others to show - a deliberate personal attitude to numb the minds of others!"

"Actually, you've already begun to feel anxious and impatient, and you must have kept no doubt about the loss of Castle Leo. So, in fact, you were ready to 'abscond' from the beginning - looking for a way to escape from the enemy's round-up!"

Viscount Steve bowed slightly, his eyes were undisguised with amazement, but he deliberately retorted: "In that case, why should I continue to stay in the castle? According to your reasoning, I should have taken the opportunity to escape from the beginning, instead of dragging the army outside to start attacking the castle, surrounding the entire Leo Castle, and it was impassable." ”

"Because you need a timing. ”

Aaron smiled and stretched out his right hand to form a fist, his left hand spread out into a cloth, his left hand gently wrapped his right hand, and explained calmly: "Our castle is a fist, and the combined army of enemy soldiers is a cloth net, and when Lord Viscount learns that all the villages outside have been lost, we are actually surrounded by the enemy - with the villages around the castle as an encirclement point!"

"If the Viscount chooses to arrange for a large number of carriages under his command to assemble and flee at this time, not to mention the leakage of the news that the Viscount is about to abandon the city and flee, it will inevitably cause a riot among the civilians - the chariot procession carrying a large amount of goods and family members alone must be unfast, and it will be easily detected by the enemy army based in the surrounding villages. ”

"Then, these enemy armies will be like bears smelling honey, frantically tracking the carriage procession of the Viscount, and the speed of the carriage is far inferior to that of the cavalry - the convoy will most likely be followed by the cavalry, and become a fragrant prey that cannot shake off the enemy's tracking, and gradually be surrounded by a large number of enemy troops and unable to break through, and finally be completely strangled by the enemy!"

"After all, Lord Viscount, you are not alone, you also have your own wives and concubines, daughters and a large amount of wealth to carry with you, it is impossible to escape the entire castle alone, because you can't leave everything you have accumulated over the years!"

"So, Lord Viscount, you have chosen the most 'ruthless' and 'decisive' way-"

Aaron's tone began to become calm, but there was a bloody meaning that could not be concealed: "Since you want your family and wealth to leave the castle and the entire territory of the Kingdom of Chino all the way safely, then you simply abandon the entire castle - as an 'outcast' to attract the attention of the enemy!"

"As long as Leo Castle maintains a state of 'resistance' and makes your civilians think that you are really holding out, then the enemy will encounter quite strong obstacles when attacking. So, unlike if you voluntarily abandon the castle and the territory changes hands easily, the enemy will still have the energy to track down the other fleeing convoys - in this case, the enemy will have absolutely no energy to worry about anything else!"

"When the enemy is desperately attacking the castle, he will definitely gather the vast majority of the army and surround the castle, resulting in basically not many enemy troops stationed in the strongholds of other villages, in other words, it is equivalent to reducing the original 'big encirclement network' into a 'small circle'!"

When Aaron said this, the fist of his right hand, which was originally wrapped in his left hand, suddenly bent a finger and stretched out through the fingers of his left hand, like a breakthrough carriage procession that had passed through a 'small circle' and came outside!

"So, you must have a secret passage leading somewhere outside, at least a hidden place outside the 'little circle' that won't be discovered by the enemy - so that you can leave the Leo Territory quietly, as long as you don't pass around the villages, and the enemy soldiers stationed in the stellar will not be able to spot the wagon procession. ”

"Even if the castle is breached by the combined army, those enemy soldiers will definitely be busy enjoying the fruits of victory - such as wanton burning, looting and plundering in the castle, and there is no time to pay attention to the specific movements around the castle, and the entire castle can drag the other party for a long time. ”

Aaron shrugged his shoulders and a knowing smile appeared on his face: "Therefore, you must have arranged the carriage in secret, and arranged most of your valuable belongings, as well as important family members and trusted subordinates, in the carriage, waiting for you to sneak out through the secret passage - I made this bold guess from the moment I learned that you were gathering your good horses." ”

"Am I right?

Bang Bang Bang ~!

Viscount Steve looked at Aaron with complicated eyes, and couldn't help but applaud: "You guessed right, Aaron, I really didn't expect that there was a talent like you under my command, I really underestimated you before...... cough cough cough cough~!"

After saying that, Viscount Steve coughed a few times, and a stream of blood overflowed from the corner of his mouth, but he didn't care, waved his hand to signal that Aaron didn't need to help him, turned around and walked to a table, and reached out to turn an oil lamp on it—

Click, click, click.......

With a mechanical sound, a stone door slid open from the wall, revealing a staircase that descended behind it.

Seeing this, Viscount Steve showed a smug smile on his face, and greeted Aaron: "Let's go, take you to see the castle I have been running for eight years, what it really looks like underground!"
