Chapter 187 What to do now? (8 more)
Brown, who climbed up from the bottom of the mud pit, looked at the cart drivers arriving one after another through the fence, and his expression suddenly became extremely ugly.

"Let us in quickly, Rick, I see you, open the door quickly!"

"Help! I don't want any more wages, so hurry up and open the door."

"The Thorn Merchant Guild who sent us here told me that there are fishmen chasing us again. Please open the door quickly!"

"Little John, I know you are inside, open the door for me!"

"The fishmen are coming..."

"..."

He never expected that the Bay Leader, who took the lead in taking action, would actually let go of these cart drivers who had no power to fight back.

Instead of killing them to vent their anger, they threw them into the swamp and destroyed their bodies.

They did not capture them as prisoners, negotiate terms with the Carlisle family, or directly use them as slaves.

But he sent them to the camp with sinister intentions.

There are already more than 5000 people in the camp, and supplies have been stored for about a week.

The transportation team delivers supplies every three days. Even if there is an accident, the camp can support the arrival of the second transportation team.

It was already the third day of waiting for supplies, and there were only four days of supplies left in the camp.

If nearly 1700 cart pullers are admitted, the supplies will only be enough for the entire camp for three days.

With the Gulf Territory's eye-catching posture, it will definitely block the transportation team or troops coming to support.

By that time, the entire camp will be without water or food!
But if they are not included in the camp, the soldiers who are related to them will definitely have considerable opinions.

Once a riot breaks out, they will most likely collapse before the Gulf Territory launches an attack.

"Use weird means to mobilize the fishmen to launch an attack and seize all the transportation supplies."

"The cart pullers who have no fighting ability are turned into a burden and thrown to the camp."

"I'm afraid that the Gulf Territory is already well prepared for subsequent situations."

"If the camp takes the initiative, it will definitely fall into their trap, and it will also fall into passivity according to the rules because of the active attack."

"But if they don't react, the Gulf Territory will trap them alive as long as they do nothing!"

"Unless, while we still have the food and resources to return, we can lead everyone to flee this camp in despair and hand over the ruins that will soon be developed!"

"Vicious! Sophisticated!"

The more he thought clearly, the uglier Brown's face became.

Seeing that the soldiers around him were starting to get a little anxious, Hawke, who frowned, came over and gritted his teeth in his ear and said:

"How about we gather our troops now, take the initiative to go out, and give this transportation team of the Gulf Territory to..."

Hawke's idea is simple.

Even though the Gulf Territory seemed to have left little evidence, once the two sides formally took action, nothing would be clear.

In the end, strength must speak for itself!
It's not like Hawke has never experienced this kind of thing. The Carlisle family is not a good man or woman!
Moreover, only if both sides take action, no matter the outcome, as a high-level knight, his life will definitely not be in danger.

If he loses, he will only lose some money at most, and it will also cover up his experience of incompetence and mission failure.

Even better if you win, not only can you get your money back, but you can also make a lot of money.

Hawke is well aware of the strength of the Carlisle family and the possibility of winning is very high.

The risks are small and the benefits are big, so why not give it a go?

Brown frowned subconsciously when he heard Hawke's words.

He was very suspicious that the Gulf Territory, which had laid out such a careful plan, actually gave such a big flaw. There must be a scam in it!Subconsciously gritting his teeth, Brown finally led the entire camp into the trap of the Bay Territory for his own selfish reasons.

This camp is very important and must be preserved no matter what!
As long as he sticks to the camp, he will be considered incompetent by the family at most, but at least he will not be severely criticized.

If he took the initiative to stir up trouble with the Gulf Territory and caused the loss of the camp and even the ruins, then his sin would be huge!
Brown chooses to believe in his family!

"Hey, open the door and let them in."

Brown's somewhat depressed voice came, and the cart drivers gathered outside the camp burst into cheers.

Seeing the figures pouring in like mud monkeys, Hawke's face turned gloomy and he turned around and left.

Among the crowd, a pair of sinister eyes saw this scene, slowly retracted their gaze, and walked in the direction where Hawke left.

Seeing the murlocs emerging from the mist, Brown frowned subconsciously. Out of sight and out of mind, he ordered his men to close the door tightly, issued food and water control orders, and dove into the tent.

He must get in touch with the family as soon as possible to find out the family's plans and movements to make next arrangements.

……

On the road more than a thousand meters away from the camp, the Thorn Caravan stopped for a period of time and slowly started off again.

They will rest for a night at the Murloc Castle and drop off their supplies.

Then, they will head to the Gulf Territory with more supplies and recruited refugees.

At some point, Matthew, who had already walked into the motorcade, received the information from Adam Smith.

Adam Smith, holding the hilt of the sword, stared coldly at the fog outside, smashed his mouth and said unhappily:
"Excluding the destroyed Sweetwater, the Carlisle family has one viscount and three barons."

"There are 3000 private soldiers in the territory, and there are about 12000 new recruits."

"But these soldiers, the Carlisle family does not have the power to command operations, but will be sent to the Scarlet Fortress as auxiliary soldiers!"

"However, it cannot be ruled out that they will also bring soldiers into the battlefield."

"After all, there are many reasons..."

"There are currently 8 high-level professionals in the Carlisle family who can participate in the battle."

"4 warriors, 1 knight, and 3 high-level spellcasters, among whom Viscount Carlisle Buck is the mid-level arcanist!"

"According to the information from the Assassin's Guild, the Carlisle family secretly hired more than 200 adventurers and prepared to send them to the Misty Swamp, obviously heading towards the territory..."

Adam Smith paused, with a bit of solemnity in his expression, pointed to the crowd outside the window, hesitated for a while and said:
"I highly suspect that there are spies from the Carlisle family outside..."

Nodding in agreement, and thinking of the guardian golem in the fishman camp, Matthew continued slowly:

"All adventurers will be gathered together later for unified testing."

"After the refugees are transported to Bay Town, they will be uniformly inspected."

Regarding the Lord's uncompromising attitude, Adam Smith was more cautious. After hesitating for a while, he asked:
"The Carlisle family has suffered a big loss. Will they take action against us?"

Matthew did not answer directly, but said a few meaningful words:
"They can recruit adventurers, why can't we?"

"This time you go back and continue to recruit people, but don't organize a transport team. At the same time, you can also show our attitude to others."

"Next time we meet, I hope to get more detailed information about the Carlisle family!"

"In the end, it's not whether they will attack us!"

"But, when will we deal with them!"
