The strongest lord system

Chapter 57 Crisis ([-])

Allen came to the training camp alone. Karl is now training in the musket reserve team, and he has been handed over to another deputy captain for the recruit team.

Allen watched Carl stand there seriously holding the wooden stick, much more serious than other fighters, the sweat on his forehead had dripped into his eyes, and he didn't move.

"Carl!" Allen called out from a distance.

Karl heard someone calling his name, and the voice was still so familiar. He turned his eyes curiously, and saw that it was the mayor. He put down the wooden stick in his hand, ran to Alan's side and said, "The mayor What's the matter?"

"Come here, I have something important to tell you."

...

"My lord, you said that a group of more than 1000 bandits are coming to our Stormwind City to take revenge!" Carl said in surprise.

"Yes, we are running out of time now." Allen said with a serious expression.

"Your Majesty, don't worry, no matter how powerful the enemy is, we will fight for you." Karl knelt on one knee and said forcefully.

Allen helped Carl up and said, "Now I need you to bring the recruits over to help me set up the defense."

"Defense line?" Karl didn't understand what it meant.

"Just listen to my arrangement," Allen said.

"Do you want to bring the Musketeers over?" Karl asked.

Allen looked at the members of the musketeers who seemed to be training, and he said silently: "We will soon show our strength to the outside, let them train for a while."

When Karl heard what Allen said, he already understood what it meant. Although the enemy was at hand, there was a faint expectation in his heart.

Time passed quickly, and it was already the second day in a blink of an eye.

Alan Carr and the recruit team dug many large pits on the flat ground more than 100 meters north of the city wall.

"My lord, is this okay?" Karl asked, wiping the sweat off his forehead.

Allen looked at the land where the pit had been dug, nodded and said, "It's almost there, go and move the cart I brought here."

Karl looked at the big pits in front of him, and asked inexplicably, "My lord, what are these pits for?"

Allen smiled mysteriously and said, "You'll know when you get the cart I brought over."

Carl curiously walked over to the carriage that Alan had brought himself before. There were sacks on it. He opened one of the sacks curiously. When he saw what was inside, his soul was almost frightened. , he jumped out all of a sudden, and looked at the things on the carriage with fear.

Allen walked over with a chuckle, and took out the contents from the sack, which turned out to be explosive packets.

Karl clearly remembered the terrifying power of this thing. It seemed that the carriage was equipped with all these things. If these things exploded together, it would be much more terrifying than the previous experiment.

"Don't worry, the lead wires on this thing haven't been installed yet, and it's safe," Allen said.

Carl breathed a sigh of relief, and he walked over, but he still didn't dare to get too close to this thing.

"My lord, what are you planning to do with these things?" Karl asked.

Allen looked at the big pits, and he said, "Karl, let me ask you, what would you say would happen if these explosives exploded at the same time under their feet on the day the robbers attacked?"

Karl's body trembled violently, he already understood the meaning of the city lord, but he had a question in his heart and said: "But, in this case, shouldn't we dig holes on all sides of Stormwind City, after all, we don't know that they will Attacked from there."

Alan pointed to the explosive pack in his hand and said: "It should be done in this way, but we don't have enough explosive packs. Except for the part that is used to make bullets, we have already used all the rest to make these. If I had known that in Xiongying We should buy more when we are in the city. Because the quantity is not enough, if we distribute these to the four sides of Stormwind City, then we will not get the power I want. So I can only bet."

Carl looked at Allen, swallowed and said, "You mean, we bet that the bandits will attack us from the north, but wouldn't that be too risky?"

Allen nodded and said, "It's really risky to do this, but as long as we find a way to increase our chances of winning the bet, it will be fine."

Karl still didn't understand what the Lord Santo meant.

Allen looked at the dense woods in the distance and said: "I can't explain it clearly to you now, and you will know in due time. I need you to arrange someone to do one thing, a very important thing. If This thing is done well, and we have won one-third of the win in this way."

"What's the matter?" Carl asked.

"I hope you can select some good scouts and send them to Stormwind City for hundreds of miles. When those robbers appear, they can report to us in advance. It is best to give us three hours. Let us be fully prepared," Allen said.

Karl nodded: "Our recruits are experts in this field. I also know a few hunters who are familiar with this geographical environment. It will definitely be no problem to send them to do reconnaissance and early warning."

"That's good. These explosives can't be buried yet. You arrange people to watch this area day and night. We will wait a few days for an early warning of the robbers, and then bury the explosives." Allen ordered, after all, it was early Bury it down, if there is any accident, it will be bad, so be more cautious in everything.

"I see." Carl nodded.

Allen put the explosive pack back into the cloth bag on the carriage, patted the dust on his hands, and said, "Everything here is arranged, you go back and lead the musketeers to prepare, we will have real musket practice in the afternoon, It's time for them to meet the real guy."

When Karl heard what Allen said, he almost jumped three feet in excitement: "My lord, can we use those muskets for practice?"

Allen nodded, but he said: "We don't have enough muskets. The weapon department is rushing to make them. I believe they will be sent to the musketeers soon. I just brought a few for your musketeers in the afternoon. Some people should practice, after all, it’s not a problem to always use wooden sticks for training.”

Carl nodded excitedly. Although he didn't give everyone a gun, it would be good to let them practice their hands. Isn't that what his training during this time is for?

"The training of your Musketeers should be fine, but don't send the guns to your hands when the time comes, you won't be able to use them yet," Allen said.

"Your Majesty, don't worry. Our musketeers will not let you down." As he spoke, Karl gave Alan a military salute.

"Okay, okay. That's it for the morning, you go back and get ready."

"Yes!"

Inside the City Lord's Mansion.

Allen managed to find the time to sit down, rest and have lunch.

"I heard that our Stormwind City is in trouble again?" At this moment, a voice came from behind Allen.

Allen turned around and saw that it was Emina: "It's just in time, sit down, your sister's cooking is delicious."

Emina made it to the opposite side of Alan. She watched Alan eating his meal bite by bite, and said nothing.

Allen felt unaccustomed to being stared at by Emina like this. He asked, "Is there something on my face? Why are you looking at me like this?"

"I just want to ask, what happened this time. It is said that the enemy this time is a group of bandits. They killed without blinking an eye. They have already destroyed a city in the southern border. They are much more powerful than the army of Bloodstain City before." Ai Mina said.

At this time, Emily came out of the kitchen. When she heard her sister's question, her face changed, and she immediately scolded Emina: "Emina, these things are not our business, the young master finally has time to rest. , eat something, and don't bother him immediately."

Emina looked into her sister's eyes and said, "I know my sister must be very concerned about these things, but I'm just too embarrassed to ask."

"Emina, you... You, the young master is our benefactor, how can you talk like that."

Allen put down the bowls and chopsticks in his hands, and he stretched out his hand to signal them to look at him: "I know that you are actually very concerned about the current situation in Stormwind City. Emina is usually silent, but you are also the one who loves our Stormwind City." Bar."

"I just don't want to lose a safe place." Emina said stubbornly.

Allen smiled and said: "Don't worry, I have everything, and I will solve all the problems. I don't pay attention to those robbers at all. So please trust me like the last time in Bloodstained City. "

Allen is actually a bit of a machismo. He feels that this kind of thing should not worry his family. No matter how big the storm is, he has to bear it.
