Chapter 25 Successful evacuation
Distributing money to civilians is a simple and crude method. As the official currency minted by the Oran royal family, the silver lion has a very good casting process and silver content, and it is considered a high-value silver coin.

Five silver lions are enough for an ordinary family in the royal capital to live for three months, and it can last longer in remote villages. In the eyes of the people, it is no longer a small amount of money.

In the short term, it seems that the Oran royal family will have to pay a lot of money for this, but in the long run, it is a sure profit deal for the royal family itself.

Various means can enhance the fighting will of the people, which can also indirectly enhance the fighting will of the army. As the combat capability of the army increases, it will be more difficult for the orcs to break through the defense line, threatening the royal family in the capital and the surrounding fertile farmland.

It is inevitable that there will be misjudgments when the money is distributed, but the rich and powerful royal family doesn't care much about it, and they will send it out as usual.

For one thing, the orcs plundering the interior rarely happened, and most of them were blocked by the army and fortress.

Secondly, this event itself is an excellent means of propaganda. The common people may not believe the impassioned speeches, but they will definitely believe in the shiny white silver coins.

The king's lion family crest is printed on each silver lion, and every pension is sent in the name of the king. The royal family and the army attach great importance to the deduction of pensions, and will be severely punished once they are found.

The royal family of Oran has had a stable and almost unshakable position in the country for centuries. Except that the king himself controls the most fertile large plains in the country, these methods are not unrelated.

After confirming this matter, Cynthia let out a sigh of relief: "That's just right, there is one last thing to ask about this."

Cynthia flew back to Tang Zhao, untied the package fixed by the rope from his back, and then dragged the package to Guinivea with some difficulty.

"You should have a deep impression of those wreckages in the forest. These things were found from them. Can you help me? Those hunters were all killed by orcs?"

The orcs can be counted as Oran's confidants, and the lycanthropes are just two blood-sucking mosquitoes to the kingdom, which are annoying, but they don't attract special attention, except when they cause some terrible disasters .

Killed by lycanthropes in the forest, from the army of the kingdom to the sheriff of the small town, no one needs to be responsible for this, after all, it has never been under the jurisdiction of any human beings.

Maybe the families of the three hunters will get some help, but it's definitely not comparable to the official ones, and being killed by orcs is completely different.

What happened in the forest, Tang Zhao and the goblin knew seven points, Gui Nivea and others knew five points, and those soldiers didn't even know three points.

Even if they knew the inside story, they would probably be happy to use this as a publicity for the fairness and benevolence of the royal family. Anyway, there is no harm.

Guinivea and his team were telling the truth about the matter. No one would delve into this small matter, but it was very important to the families of those hunters.

As the daughter of a diplomat, Guinivea somewhat understands the twists and turns of the human world and understands Cynthia's thinking.

Although it was a lie, it was only good for everyone. Cynthia was not one of those old elf aristocrats who were old-fashioned, conservative, and self-proclaimed superior. After a little thought, she nodded in agreement.

"Leave it to us, they will exist as heroes who will take up arms and defend their homeland."

At that time, Tang Zhao heard clearly that these hunters really dared to resist, but they lacked strength, and now they just changed the murderer from lycanthropy to orc.

Tang Zhao felt much happier after repaying the "borrowed" knives from the three hunters, and left with Cynthia on his back in a good mood, to meet the rest of the goblins.

At this time, the forward of the infantry regiment had arrived.

A group of [-] or [-] soldiers riding tall horses, the two leaders held the flags of the king and the Guards respectively.

Although it is an infantry regiment, it still needs to be equipped with scouts on horseback, but there are not many in comparison.

The scouts are different from the shock cavalry who are responsible for tearing apart the enemy's lines. They strive to be light and fast. The horses are only equipped with light silver horse clothes, and the soldiers are also wearing half-body armor and use long swords and light bows.

A vulture rider spotted them and fell from the sky, explaining the information he had learned from Guinivea.

Dismounting in line, the whole group of soldiers entered the forest and began to search for traces of orcs.

What happened next had nothing to do with Tang Zhao. He observed the human army without any trace, and waited quietly for the carriage to arrive without any further indication.

The caravan was not slow to react, and arrived before the arrival of the human infantry.

The interior space of the four wagons is very spacious, enough for more than a hundred goblins and Tang Chao to migrate comfortably.

There was a coachman in the car, and a total of two guides who looked very dull and honest. There were some empty crates in the carriage compartment, which were used to hide people's eyes and ears, and they were considered thoughtful.

The goblins naturally thanked Tina and Guinivea from the bottom of their hearts. Judging from their expressions and movements, they should be quite useful.

"The horse-drawn carriage takes the provincial road of the Kingdom of Oran. There is a lot of traffic and it's safe. We stop at Venusia in the middle and Luford in the west, and then change to a horse-drawn carriage to speed up. In this case, you can arrive in about three or four days. If you need anything, just tell the guide, and things that are not too troublesome can usually be resolved.”

The flag of the Royal Guards could already be seen in the distance, Tina spoke quickly, and finally gave some instructions.

"You go now, the commander of the imperial guards is the second prince. He has a close relationship with the third princess. The third princess is very interested in things like fairies or precious creatures. Although it is not life-threatening to attract her attention, it will cause trouble for the upper body. .”

The goblins didn't show any ink, and flew into different carriages one by one, while Tang Zhao jumped into the carriage of the leading carriage.

The goblin thoughtfully drew down the curtain to block the rear opening of the carriage, so as to prevent outsiders from seeing him and attracting attention.

Finally, with a few words of farewell, the carriage set off and headed towards the Yongwang Mountains.
-
A vulture rider followed them for a while, perhaps suspecting that there might be orcs hiding in the carriage, but after a few flashes of flares rose inside the forest, he turned his spear wisely and rushed over there.

Tina emphasized that the guide can be trusted, so Cynthia bravely dared to talk to strangers.
