Chapter 100: Blackwater One Night City V
"You can break the bottle from the inside. ”
Nia and Link were still dazed.
Cross looked at Link, "There are tiny seeds in this hypnotic potion. ”
"I see, Your Excellency, you want me to control the growth of the seed and make the bottle crack from the inside. ”
"Yes. ”
"What about me? What do I do?"
"You sneak into Blackwater with this sleep potion, find the soldiers' quarters, and put it in. ”
"Good!"
Nia took the sleep potion and carefully hid it.
Cross touched the conch in his pocket and thought to himself that if Watson could come, the battle would be nearly 100% certain.
......
Wendy's side had already dismantled the Fortress, and the people who built it couldn't understand such an order, but they did it anyway.
Later, Cross asked all the human people of Copperhill, including Wendy, to gather together in the empty granary.
He wants to inform everyone in Copperhill of the plan for Blackwater One Night City.
This time it was the same as the last time, except that the subject was changed from a Hoffer to a human.
However, when humans heard such news, their excited reactions were greater than Cross could have imagined.
"What!?What did you say, lordship!?"
"Are we going to have to get food back from the Seattas? Is this the only way!?"
"Your Excellency Cross, you won't let us people who have no combat experience go to the battlefield, we will die in vain if we go!"
"I'm not going, I'm definitely not going, I'm going to stay in Copper Mountain Town!"
"I'm not going either. ”
......
Compared to the heroism and righteousness of the Hofers, these humans disappointed Cross a little. Wendy on the side also shook her head helplessly.
"Everyone is quiet. Wendy stopped the joke from continuing, "Lord Lord didn't ask you to go to the battlefield to kill the enemy, he just wanted to tell everyone about it. ”
Wendy's words made everyone breathe a sigh of relief.
"Your Excellency's decision is a wise decision. ”
"That's right, I knew that Lord Cross must have a way to get food for the winter. ”
"Long live Cross Klein!"
......
"Don't rush to celebrate just yet. Cross spoke, in a much more serious tone than at first. "Those 30 Stronghold builders need to come with me to Blackwater, that's the order!"
Cross's stern words and sharp eyes did not cause another heated discussion among the people present, but Cross could feel the reactions of these people.
Some were depressed and depressed, apparently one of the 30 men, others worried, and those who were going to build the Stronghold must have loved ones among them, while the rest were secretly happy, glad they didn't have to take the risk.
Of course, there were a few people who had been listening attentively and who had never spoken since the beginning, and these were the blacksmiths sent by Reinhardt.
Cross wanted to tell everyone about the attitude of the Hoffers towards this matter, but after thinking about it, it was better to forget it, in that case, it might be counterproductive.
However, he still has to say something, on the one hand, to indoctrinate these people with a low level of consciousness, and on the other hand, to calm everyone's emotions.
He knew very well that the reason why those people had those emotions was because they knew too little about the enemy and me, and he only needed to tell them that he would win this time, so that these people could feel more at ease.
"The people who came with me to Blackwater Town are all heroes of Coppermountain Town, and you are the key to the battle plan of 'Blackwater One Night City'.
All of us should follow their example and move forward bravely for the sake of Copper Mountain Town.
Finally, I would like to explain the criticality of this operation.
The battle plan of 'Blackwater One Night City' this time is the only choice for our Tongshan Town to survive, and this time we are fully prepared, as long as we successfully complete the construction of the city fortress in the north of Heishui Town, we can easily capture Blackwater Town and get back the food that belongs to us!"
Sure enough, some people were inspired by these words and began to chant "Victory!"
Immediately afterward, most of the people shouted "Victory!" and they seemed to be filled with confidence for a moment.
Of course, Cross doesn't think so, most of these people are just three minutes of heat.
He suddenly realized that it was not so easy to manage a small town, especially the humans in the town. For these humans, he can ask Wendy for advice, or try a new way of managing them himself.
At least, from the current point of view, the management method of the Kersman Empire cannot allow Tongshan Town to survive in the troubled times, and that kind of management method cannot mobilize the enthusiasm of the people at all. Cross was looking for a change, and he was always trying.
Now it seems that the reward and punishment rules will have an obvious effect, and he thinks that this time it will still be implemented, but he is prepared to wait until he returns from Blackwater to reward all those who put in the effort.
Perhaps, we can only start from the most primitive desires of human beings.
Cross stretched out his hand and motioned for the shouters to stop.
"Thirty heroes who built the Stronghold, you move all those materials to the port, and then go get some sleep, let's go tonight. ”
After Cross finished making the final arrangements, the group dispersed, and Wendy followed to oversee the removal of the materials.
Feeling the empty granary, Cross suddenly felt a sense of loneliness. He began to think about the meaning of life.
At this moment, Gawain suddenly broke in.
"Cross, you come out quickly. ”
"What's wrong? ”
"Remember that werewolf Watson? Did you have a problem with him, he was in the harbor with a dozen men, and he said he wanted to see you. ”
Naturally, Watson did not explain his intention to Gawain, and Cross, who learned the news, was excited.
Without saying a word, he rushed out.
......
Watson crossed his hands over his chest, and behind him stood a row of people, no, werewolves.
Seeing Cross running, the werewolves bowed under Watson's leadership.
"Lord Cross, I'm back. ”
Cross didn't know how to answer Watson's words, he didn't expect Watson to come back at all, let alone that he would bring so many werewolves with him this time, he was just excited to help Watson bent over.
"Your Excellency, have you prepared a house for us?"
"Of course!"
Watson couldn't understand why so many people were carrying processed wood to the port, "What are you doing here?"
"Well, I told you not to be frightened. ”
"After this incident with the Frostwolf Tribe, I don't think there's anything left to scare me. ”
Cross smiled, "We're going to attack Blackwater. ”
