Verse 170 trouble is coming

"Nonsense!" Lan Fake glanced at the old evil, and then said proudly: "The combat power of our troll warriors is very terrifying, as long as they are given enough good weapons, the number of demonic beasts they kill can be multiplied, and the casualties will be greatly reduced, and the increased combat power of these 2,000 weapons is enough to be as low as 10,000 light and strong! And they don't need to eat and drink!"

"Okay, you don't think you'll suffer. The old evil then said: "I will tell them to do this matter later, you should hurry up and tell the bad news now!"

"Okay, the bad news is that I wanted to go to the human border city to check on the situation a few days ago, but I was blocked by a human army on the way!" Lan Faco said solemnly: "At least 1,500 of them are regular troops on the border of the Griffin Kingdom, and the other few hundred are mercenaries of various races. The regular army here has a high combat effectiveness because they have to deal with the bandits that roam around them all year round. Don't look at the strength of each of them, but the biggest feature of the army is that it acts in unison, and the advance and retreat are well-founded, especially when attacking fortifications, it is particularly powerful. And those mercenaries are not vegetarians, they provide protection for the merchants who pass through here all the year round, and have fought against the surrounding beasts, humans, dwarves and robbers among the barbarians of the plateau, and their combat effectiveness is very strong, including five or six level masters. With more than 2,000 people killed, even if there are more than 30 cyclops in your castle, you may not be able to resist it!"

"Ahh

"Ha!" However, after hearing this, the old evil not only did not panic, but immediately laughed and said: "Where is this bad news, is it clearly good news!"

"Good news?" Lan Faco suddenly smiled wryly, "You don't think they can do it easily, do you? My goal is too big, as long as I do it, others will know it's me. And if the people of the Griffon Kingdom know that I'm here, then your family will be in big trouble! After all, my relationship with your family is obvious. You must know that the public annihilation of thousands of regular troops in the kingdom, even if the Stephen family is powerful, will definitely not be able to afford it. ”

"You don't have to do it, I'll do it myself!" The old evil immediately smiled: "That's the equipment of more than 2,000 people, I'm still in a dilemma, where to get you 2,000 heavy swords and battle axes, someone will send them." Hehe, they can help us with half of it, right?"

"Hey, most of their equipment is human spears, only the head is iron, you won't send us with that kind of garbage, will you?" said Lan Fako with immediate dissatisfaction.

"No, I mean take the low-grade iron they brought with them back and rebuild them here from the Cyclops into the giant weapons you need. That's all right?" asked the old evil smile.

"Okay, yes, but the question is, how do you fight?" Lan Fake smiled bitterly: "That's 2,000 elites, those ordinary soldiers are okay to say, but those mercenaries are all swordsmanlike and blood-licking goods, which can be described as the elite of a hundred battles, among which the senior warriors of the beast clan almost stand more than half." Even if we send out the troops of our troll clan, it will take at least 2000 to barely defeat them. In your hands right now, there are more than 30 cyclops and about 200 spirits, and you want to fight with others? Isn't this looking for death?"

"It's okay, it's too easy. The old evil didn't care and said: "Don't we still have ~"

As soon as the old evil said this, Paz hurriedly shouted to the side: "Dear master, if you want to use the number four to put down more than 2,000 people next door in the desolation, please prepare me 100,000 gold coins first, plus a few years, otherwise, I can't make so many fours?"

The old evil originally wanted to say that he would use the fourth, after all, he had a good time at the Black Dragon Society headquarters last time, but he didn't expect to be interrupted by Paz in advance. At this time, the old evil realized that using this thing in the open Gobi is obviously not the same as in a closed castle.

However, the old evil was still not in a hurry, he immediately changed his tone and said, "Who said that I was going to use the number four, and did it cost so much money to deal with them?"

"And what are you going to do?" said Paz curiously.

"Hehe, it's very simple, stealing camp!" said the old evil laugh.

"Stealing camp?" When Lan Fake heard this, his eyes suddenly rolled and he said disdainfully: "I said, are you crazy?

"You don't understand, let me ask you, where are they now?" the old evil suddenly asked, "How far is it from us?"

"More than 500 miles, according to normal circumstances, it will take at least twelve or three days to arrive. Lan Faco said.

"Hehe, they're just walking so slowly, I'm afraid it has something to do with the fact that they have to carry a lot of supplies, right?" asked the old evil smile.

"Nonsense, in this vast Gobi, there is no water and no food, they naturally have to bring their own, there are nearly 100 large trucks for transportation in the later stage!" Lan Fake then couldn't help but shake his head and smiled bitterly: "Just getting these vehicles and supplies, I'm afraid it will cost thousands of gold coins, I really don't know, why do they have to spend so much trouble to beat you? Could it be that there are more gold coins worth here." ”

"Hmph, I'm afraid that the gold coins are not the main thing, they are thinking about the location here, right?" the old evil sneered.

In fact, the old evil really guessed correctly this time. It turned out that since the last time the people of the Augustus family were blackmailed here, they had the same thoughts. I also want to collect tolls here easily like the old evil. So he found a general of the family in the border city, and asked him to lay down this place for the family, or for the griffon kingdom, at all costs.

Of course, fighting a war is not a casual thing. Even the Augustus family did not dare to transfer the border guards particularly arrogantly, it would be a bit taboo, after all, they had not yet dared to defy the royal power. Therefore, the second person of the Augustus family, the night owl, only asked the people here to prepare at first, and supported him with a sum of money. Then he returned to Yanjing and personally lobbied the high-level of the kingdom, and after the full operation of the Augustus family, the kingdom soon issued an order for the general of the Augustus family to go to the old evil 'dreadnought castle'.

That's why, after so much time, they didn't arrive until today.

Lan Fake naturally didn't care why these people came, he just wanted to know how the old evil would deal with it, so he hurriedly asked the old evil in a hurry: "We don't care what they want to do, I just want to know how you can defeat them!"

"Hehe!" the old evil laughed twice, and then said, "In the Great Gobi, the most precious thing is clear water. They are so numerous that they need a lot of water, so they spend a lot of money on vehicles to transport supplies. Now that they had walked most of the distance, the water had been at least half consumed, and if we could destroy some of it for them at night before they came. It doesn't take too much, as long as it's just not enough for 2,000 people. Ahem, you say, what will happen to them in this situation?"

After listening to the old evil's words, a black line suddenly appeared on the foreheads of Lan Fake and the others. Lan Fake directly smiled bitterly, "You're really bad enough." If your plot succeeds, you can imagine that these guys will have to fight to survive. ”

"Yes!" Paz also smiled bitterly, "the army and mercenaries are not monolithic, they only came together temporarily for money. If they have a fierce conflict, it will surely magnify their immediate rift and eventually lead to a terrible civil war. I'm afraid that when the time comes, we won't need to do it at all, and those people will kill themselves first. ”

"Hehe, that's what I want!" said the old evil smugly.

"However, this thing is easy to say, but it is difficult to do!" Paz said: "No matter how you say that the more than 2,000 people are also old soldiers, they will definitely take strict precautions against their own life, how can it be so easy to be broken by you?"

"I'll have to ask Lan Fako first. The old evil then asked, "How many waterwheels do they have?" Do they use giant wooden barrels to hold water, or do they just use the whole extra-large waterwheel?"

"It's a large square waterwheel with a huge size, which should have been built. After all, barrels are expensive, and they can't afford to spend that money!"

"How many waterwheels are there?" asked the old demon, "Are they pulled by animals?"

"There are about 60 waterwheels, of course, they rely on people, how can there be so many livestock?" Lan Fake said with a wry smile: "Do you think that the army is as rich as the caravan? There were less than 100 horsemen among the mercenaries. ”

"Haha, no wonder they are walking slowly!" the old evil laughed, "That's easy, as long as we break 40 waterwheels! Of course, more is better, after all, they may kill their mounts for blood, we can't give them a chance." ”

"But the question is, you haven't said exactly how to do that?" asked Paz couldn't help but ask.

"Want to know what I do to them?" the old evil grinned and said, "It's too easy, hurry up and eat, when we are full of food and drink, I'll take the three of you and them together!"

"Huh?" Paz was dumbfounded when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "You mean, just tonight, just the four of us?"

"That's right, haha!" said the old evil, picking up a piece of meat and stuffing it into his mouth, and then said: "Don't talk nonsense, eat quickly, 500 miles, far enough!"
