Lords Trying to Survive: Strategizing from a Rundown Yard

The face of this armored old man looked majestic.

After receiving Prince Ayub's instructions, he put his left hand on his chest and bowed in greeting.

Then he left the palace directly.

Prince Ayub and other old men began to discuss.

A passage left by the first Sultan has always been regarded as an ancestral instruction.

It has been passed down in the royal family for generations.

All their children were required to learn a passage from an early age.

Because this passage contains the wisdom of the first sultan.

It is related to the future destiny of the Salander Sultanate.

That's why the female lord was discovered so quickly.

The abnormal behavior they displayed attracted the attention of the indigenous people almost instantly.

This alarmed Prince Ayub.

At the same time, with the arrival of winter.

Similar scenes occurred across the continent.

Among the billions of lords who survived, there were still a small number of lords who did not complete the preparation of cold-proof materials in the end.

However, not all kingdoms have left such highly suggestive words as the first sultan of the Salander Sultanate.

However, the strange behavior of the lords still attracted the attention of some indigenous people.

…

None of this has much to do with our clan.

It was after two o'clock in the afternoon, and the heavy snow still did not stop.

It was very quiet in the territory.

Whether they are farmers or soldiers, they are all wrapped in their coats and resting in their own houses.

On the first day of winter, the temperature is about minus 10°C. In closed houses and stone houses, it is enough to withstand this level of cold.

The furnace has not been lit yet, and it is not yet time to light it.

In a previous arrangement, Mariel distributed books on cooking and medicine to two rare-level talented farmers who were interested in them.

This is part of Zongshen’s talent training plan.

In addition, some masters who did not get a seat in the meditation room also chose to ask Mariel for books.

Increase your own wisdom attributes by reading books.

This was the first time for the Wolf Cavalry to see heavy snow.

After getting permission from Howie and Doris, Colby led more than forty wolf cavalrymen to run and play wildly in the heavy snow for a while.

These wild prairie warriors drank from a can of whiteboard-quality spirits.

While taking off his leather armor, he roared an unknown song.

They were naked from the waist up, revealing their strong and well-proportioned muscles.

The skin was red from the cold.

As they ran and the strong alcohol took effect, waves of turbid white heat rose up.

Although this behavior seems a bit nonsensical.

But for the Wolf Riders, this is the way to relax.

They are the model workers in the territory.

No breaks from any activity, no challenge.

Even if there is no mission to go out to explore and fight, they still need to be grouped into regular patrols.

So Howie and Doris acquiesced in their behavior.

The temperature at this stage is not enough to make them sick from the cold.

After playing for more than half an hour.

The wolf cavalry wiped themselves clean, put on their leather armor and warm clothes again, and returned to their respective houses.

Except for the Wolf Cavalry, the other soldiers seemed very calm.

Twelve dragon-turned-gun-and-shield warriors in the territory crowded into a room.

Howie gave them two decks of Avalon's local "Dragon Language Cards."

This is a beautifully drawn board game with unique rules.

It is very popular in the Kingdom of Avalon and the Kingdom of Nord.

After Howie briefly explained the rules, these sturdy dragon-shaped men were all fascinated by the "Dragon Language Card".

The same goes for other farmers and soldiers, with all kinds of fancy chess and cards for entertainment.

Cheap spirits, and even things like betel leaves and crude tobacco leaves.

These are among the procurement materials that Zong Shen requested before.

The quantity purchased is not large, but it can basically satisfy the entertainment of farmers and soldiers during the cold winter.

A large number of the people directly chose to sleep where they were.

This does not include the three fat men.

That kid rushed into the training ground with more than a dozen farmers with rare talents.

Start an eight-hour training routine.

Since Zong Shen started the farmer training program.

Sanpang fell in love with the feeling of training.

The current three fat men have reached level lv8.

This level would seem ridiculous in front of any professional soldier.

But among farmers, he already stands out.

His own four attributes have also been improved by several points.

Speaking of which, San Pang can be regarded as the earliest farmer to follow Zong Shen.

During this time, he also suffered some subtle influences.

I don’t want the vast majority of farmers to be so content with the status quo.

Compared to other farmers, this guy is a truly motivated player.

All in all, the current situation in Zong Shen's territory is quite peaceful.

Including Zong Shen himself, it was extremely comfortable.

A busy lord is worse than a dog, and a idle lord is the real master.

At this time, Zong Shen was lying lazily on the big bed in the bedroom.

The windows and doors in the room were closed.

Because of the temperature difference between inside and outside, the windows were covered with hazy water vapor.

Zong Shen held Luna in his arms, covered with a warm [sheepskin quilt].

Although his body was empty.

But I felt the warm jade-like body temperature next to me.

His soul is still very satisfied.

Enjoy tranquility, laziness, and happiness.

Luna leaned on his chest, curled up and breathed slightly.

Like a bird that has found a haven.

Zong Shen remained motionless, enjoying the wonderful feeling of happiness now.

At this moment, the communication crystal he placed on the bedside table began to vibrate.

Looking at the number, it's Vereesa's communication request.

Zong Shen chose to connect.

He whispered softly in a lowered voice.

"What's wrong Vereesa?"

"Did something happen to the territory?"

After Vereesa completed his instructions, she and Mariel went to the tailor shop to help.

Now that I have sent a communication request, I must have discovered something.

Vereesa's calm voice came through the communication crystal.

From Zong Shen's side, you can still hear the whistling wind from her side.

"Sir, there was something strange just now in the northwest, which is the farming and pastoral area of ​​the territory."

"The defense matrix deployed in that direction suddenly launched an attack."

"I explored the position of the defense tower against attack."

"Only several pools of dark green blood were left on the spot."

"I have contacted the living area, and two wolf riding teams are on their way."

After listening to Vereesa's report, Zong Shen frowned.

"Dark green blood..."

"Maybe it's a goblin."

"Since they have explored this area."

"There is no doubt that we will be discovered."

"Because we are the largest territory around here."

"Be safe, I'm coming over now."

"In addition, notify Doris to come over."

"I need her help in this weather."

Zong Shen said hastily, but his tone was still very soft, for fear of waking up Luna.

But after he hung up the communication crystal, he turned his head again.

Luna in her arms has opened her eyes.

He was looking at Zong Shen with his bright eyes.

"Is there something unusual happening in the territory?"

Luna asked quietly.

Zong Shen nodded, lowered his head, and kissed Luna gently.

Then he got up with difficulty and left the bed.

Entering Wenwen Township is a kind of enjoyment, and leaving Wenwen Township is a kind of suffering.

Zong Shen quickly put on his armor, rabbit fur boots and leggings, and a bearskin coat.

"Get some rest Luna."

"I'm going to check on the situation."

Zong Shen said in a gentle tone.

On the bed, Luna sat up and covered her delicate body with the sheepskin quilt.

He nodded obediently.

There is some reluctance and concern in my heart.

Luna and Zong Shen were like lovers in the honeymoon stage.

I wish I could be together every day.

Especially in this rare moment of leisure.

The separation at this time made her somewhat reluctant to let go.

The same was true for Zong Shen, but no matter how reluctant he was to give up, he still had to go and see the situation.

During this winter challenge, although Zong Shen was not afraid of dangers that might arise from the outside world.

But the territory is his foundation, the basis for his settlement.

As a lord, he must respond in time.

At the same time, he can also follow the clues left at the scene.

Use your own strategy module to directly grasp the truth of the matter.

He gave Luna a reassuring look.

Then he walked out of the room and closed the door.

Climbing the stairs back to the first floor.

When he pushed open the door of the lord's small building.

I found that there was already a slope of snow at the door.

It looks like it was blown by the wind and piled up here.

The outside world has become a white world.

During the two hours he and Luna were entangled.

The snow accumulated in a thick layer.

Take the five steps of the lord's small building as a reference.

At this time, the snow had accumulated from the road to nearly half of the second step.

This means there is at least thirty centimeters of snow outside.

Zong Shen paused at the door for a while, then turned back and closed the door of the small building.

He carefully walked down the steps and stepped into the snow.

Even though Zong Shen was mentally prepared, the feeling of stepping into the air still made him stagger.

After standing firm, he walked towards the entrance of the small courtyard.

The snow on the ground made walking even more difficult.

The strong winds and blizzards even affected the view.

Zong Shen came to the open space at the entrance of the small courtyard step by step.

He took out the [Heavy Bearer Mecha] directly.

The double-track structure and better passability make it a useful tool for trekking in the snow.

This thing has a wading depth of 1.65 meters.

There is a height of about one meter from the site to the ground.

The driving position is higher and the view is better.

As soon as the huge [Heavy Bearer Mecha] landed on the ground, it collapsed under the weight of the snow.

Zong Shen sat directly in the cab and chose to start.

This time, the activation efficiency of [Magic Core] is slower than usual.

Fortunately, the track drive was fine.

Under Zong Shen's control, the wide metal tracks on both sides were driven by the road wheels.

It began to rub against the ground, crushing the snow under the tracks.

Steadyly drove away from the west city gate and headed northwest.

It is seven or eight hundred meters away from the first group of defense matrices in the northwest.

Vereesa stood in the snow wearing a hood and a thick coat.

There were two entire squads of wolf cavalry on the side looking around cautiously.

All warriors, including Vereesa, are equipped with [Rabbit Fur Overboots] and [Rabbit Fur Leggings].

Even the mount is wearing a sheepskin coat.

Such thermal insulation measures ensure that they can maintain most of their combat effectiveness.

The sound of the rolling tracks of the loader mecha was heard.

Everyone came over.

Zong Shen stopped the loader mecha in advance.

Slowly walked towards Vereesa and the others.

"grown ups…"

…

Everyone saluted Zong Shen.

Zong Shen just nodded slightly and said nothing more.

He walked forward with clear purpose.

On the snow in front, there were four or five pools of dark green blood.

It is very abrupt on the white snow.

You must know that the situations that the indigenous people and the lords see in the winter challenge are completely different.

The blood had been covered up by the newly fallen snowflakes.

Fifteen minutes had passed from Vereesa's notification to Zong Shen arriving at the scene.

There were no traces left on the snow, except for the blood that had been beaten by the territorial defense towers.

Their tracks do not appear on the snow.

There is no doubt that they should have sneaked in from the northwest of the territory.

And this time it was definitely not just the Goblin Scouts who came alone.

At least there was a small group of goblins.

This area is not yet covered by the Eye of True Seeing [Watch Tower].

This meant that this was a standard goblin team, not a pure scout team.

After they entered the attack position of the first group of defense matrices in this area.

He was immediately hit mercilessly.

Especially [Elemental Arrow Tower] and [Giant Crossbow Tower], the entire distance is when they show their power.

However, the defense matrix's attack only lasted one round, and the Goblin team decisively chose to retreat.

According to the Goblin information Zong Shen learned before.

This shows that there are more intelligent Goblin spellcasters in this Goblin team.

Just like the two goblin teams Zong Shen met in the mine.

Each team has a Goblin Shaman in charge.

This is not a good sign.

Zong Shen narrowed his eyes and immediately had a plan.

He had to go after this team.

They must not be allowed to return to the tribes in the mountains and forests.

If this team is wiped out, it will only make the Goblin tribe suspicious at best.

This can also gain some buffer time.

But if this team returns to the tribe.

The next time they meet, Zong Shen will face at least hundreds of Goblin tribe warriors.

They will have an assessment of the strength of Zong Shen's territory.

This is something Zong Shen would never allow to happen.

Although the two sides are in the same area, there will definitely be a battle in the future.

But for Zong Shen, the most appropriate time has not yet come.

He must annihilate this goblin squad.

Then just sit back and wait in the territory!
