The sunset was as red as the burning clouds. A refreshing breeze came slowly, making people feel relaxed and happy. After this period of time, Brettel City has been repaired, and all the holes and marks have been repaired.
The two tall magic crystal cannons at the main city gate were shining with a faint red light under the sunset. They seemed to be able to spit out huge tongues of fire at any time.
Helendina, who was forced to make a contract by Han Shuo, looked at the two magic crystal cannons that should have belonged to her at the gate of Brettel City. She felt very uncomfortable. Han Shuo on the city wall was smiling.
After signing the contract, he waved goodbye and said: "Dear Duke Helen. We will not escort you."
Fangxin cursed Han Shuo's ancestors for eighteen generations. Helendina was concerned about the rebellion that might happen at any time in the Principality of Hillen. After recovering her mental power, she slowly used the levitation technique to fly high into the sky. Her bright eyes stared fiercely.
After looking at Han Shuo for a while, he gritted his teeth and said in a low voice: "Greedy devil, I will definitely come back to take revenge!"
"Bon voyage. Remember to pay me back the gold coins you owe me within three months!" Han Shuo smiled and shook the contract in his hand, as if to remind Helentina not to default on the debt.
"Humph!" Helendina turned away angrily, and slowly flew towards the Principality of Hillen in the form of a fiery red shadow. Under the sunset glow of Huoshaoyun, this red fiery shadow was like a rainbow cutting across the sky.
"Your Excellency is so evil. Not only did you possess this femme fatale, but you also extorted a large sum of gold coins. You really eat people without spitting out their bones!" Chester shook his head and sighed. He looked at Han Shuo with eyes full of admiration.
"I didn't expect that Helentina was so beautiful. No wonder Benedict from the Principality of Nathan would be so obsessed with her. It's a pity. It's a pity. He definitely wouldn't have thought that an adult would pick this flower first." Dick gloated and laughed.
, maliciously speculating that Benedict would look ugly when he knew about this incident.
"Lord City Lord, after Helentina leaves, I think she will not be reconciled to her ruthlessness. Well, as long as she lets out the news that our Brettel City has her 400,000 gold coins, I think the seven principalities will definitely give birth to greed.
heart." Vaqueran, who was leaning against Han Shuo, said worriedly to Han Shuo after Helentina left.
Looking at the sky full of red clouds, Han Shuo frowned and thought for a while. Then his eyes turned to the vague shadows of the mountains and rivers around Brettel City. Then he said to Dick in the distance: "Dick, you send someone here
Take a trip around the mountains and rivers. Invite the leaders of the mountain people to come to Brettell City and say that I will treat them to a meal."
"Sir, since all the previous city lords of Brettel City were incompetent people, they were never able to help them resist the bandits. Therefore, they have never had a good impression of the city lords of Brettel City, and naturally they cannot speak of awe. I can
The news was passed to them, but I was afraid that they would despise us and not come to the banquet." Dick looked embarrassed and hesitated before explaining to Han Shuo.
"Now and then, Fukarin from the Tali Mountains will definitely come. If Fukarin gets the news with other people before he comes, I think those other mountain chiefs who know our strength will also be willing to come down, hehe. Before.
It was before and now. The entire Brettel City is my territory, and they are all my subjects. If these people are really ungrateful, I will let them know how to respect a city lord." Han Shuo didn't.
Said to Dick calmly.
Nodding, Dick agreed: "Okay, I will definitely notify them."
Dick is also a mountain man. Before Han Shuo came to Brettel City, he had contact with the mountain people in the surrounding mountains. He also maintained a good light system secretly. Originally, Dick did not have any hope for Han Shuo. Now
After seeing Han Shuo's strength and methods, I knew in my heart that if those unruly compatriots offended Han Shuo, they would definitely suffer.
Therefore, as soon as Han Shuo finished speaking, Dick made up his mind to persuade those unruly compatriots to come over. He did not want those people to die under Han Shuo's undead army.
After Dick left, Han Shuo said to Falkland: "Use the gold coins in our hands. Give me all your strength to arm the entire Brettel City. Chariots,
trebuchet,
kerosene,
Goblin missiles waiting for fire
Strength equipment. I have entrusted some merchants to transport it. All you have to do is ask the masons to consolidate any weak part of the city wall for me. If the city wall is not high enough, I can increase it to a high enough level."
"Lord of the City, the craftsmen are already working overtime to do these things. At present, what we lack most is people and combat-effective soldiers. Brettel City has experienced the poison of the war, and the total number of residents in the city is only about 50,000, and some
Compared to the million-dollar city, the population is pitifully small, and some of the young and strong people are even fewer. They have been recruiting soldiers during this period, but for such a huge temptation, they only recruited more than 200 soldiers. The number is far from enough!
It is basically impossible to protect the four city gates of such a large Brettel City with more than 3,000 soldiers in the city. Even if we have powerful firepower, we still need people to operate it! If the population is a problem
If it can't be solved, I think Brettel City will always be like this lifeless state." Vaquelan is indeed a knight who has experienced the flames of war. He can see at a glance what Brettel City lacks most, and this is what Brettel City currently lacks.
The biggest weakness of Tel City.
This place is indeed a problem. Han Shuo also understands that the worst thing about Brettel City is the people, but there is no good way to solve it. Brettel City has been in the flames of war. Some residents who have walked out of Brettel City over the years
, has compared Brettel City to a hell on earth. Not only the original residents who have left, but also the civilians in other cities who know Brettel City, it is estimated that they will not be willing to move to Brettel City.
What Han Shuo can do now is to first ensure the security of Brettel City, and then start from all aspects to attract residents from other cities bit by bit through good political and security conditions and benefits that are conducive to their development.
Settled in Brettel City.
However, this is not an overnight process. It does require a period of transition. At the very least, the threat of robbery from the seven principalities must be eliminated before others can slowly understand that Brettel is indeed safe. Only in this way can
Dispel the fear and panic of those who are afraid.
"Well, I know that this place is indeed our biggest problem. We really can't attract residents to move in for the time being, but as long as we can stop the looting of the seven principalities, we can spread the news that Brettel City is safe. Some homesick places
It is estimated that the original residents will be willing to come back, and we will start from various aspects bit by bit. I think that sooner or later, Brettel City will be able to have a grand event.
At present, some of the personnel we are lacking can be taken from the mountain people in the surrounding mountains. This is also the purpose of letting them go to Brettel City. I heard from Dick that there are 30,000 to 40,000 mountain people in the surrounding mountains. Among them, they have combat effectiveness.
There are about 10,000 people in the world. If we can control and utilize this group of forces. In addition, we are well-equipped and have six magic crystal cannons. With a solid city wall to resist the invasion of the seven principalities, we will have a better chance of winning."
Han Shuo had already considered this issue and explained to Vaquelan the purpose of summoning the mountain men.
"Since your Excellency has already thought it through, I won't say anything more. In addition, Master Lawrence will send several people who are good at managing the city's finances in the near future. The military and political affairs in Brettell City should also be on the right track."
Lan said respectfully.
Han Shuo nodded. Han Shuo said calmly: "Well, you can arrange these things for the time being."
At present, Brettel City is waiting for prosperity. All kinds of talents are extremely scarce. The military and political talents arranged by Lawrence can indeed play an important role. However, these people are all arranged by Lawrence. Once the military and political talents are eliminated in the early stage,
Once the important positions in Brettel City are under control, it will be difficult to eliminate them in the future.
If this situation is allowed to continue to develop, Han Shuo will continue to use Lawrence people to manage the military and political affairs. This kind of unknowing infiltration may slowly turn Brettel City into Lawrence Land. Han Shuo is now more powerful than before.
He has matured a lot and understands this shortcoming in his heart. Unfortunately, he has no one of his own available now. It is difficult to guess whether Lawrence has good intentions or ulterior motives. Now is the time when talent is most lacking, so now the only thing he can do is to do this.
.
But in Han Shuo's mind, he has begun to think about the future. He has also really thought about starting to use some of his close friends. Whether it is training or digging, this is not a simple matter. With this idea in Han Shuo's mind, he gradually began to think about it.
Go to your room.
He stayed in the city lord's mansion for two days. During the day, Han Shuo supervised the progress of some defense facilities in the city, and at night, he worked tirelessly to practice magic skills and magic. However, it became more and more difficult to break through the magic skills. Just relying on this daily practice
He didn't make much progress after just one day of boring practice, but Han Shuo, who had the spiritual power of a great mage, could make rapid progress in magic.
Therefore, Han Shuo is currently focusing more on the research of undead magic. Using the secret room in the City Lord's Mansion, Han Shuo can easily travel to the Death Cemetery. The Death Cemetery is a holy land that is most suitable for the cultivation of necromancers. Not only does it have
There was a strong aura of death. There were also complete magic instruments and laboratories. Every night, Han Shuo stayed alone in the Death Cemetery, capturing some living monsters to practice the "Soul Tremor" magic.
When Han Shuo's magic power reaches the point of dividing demons, his soul transforms into a more mysterious spiritual consciousness, which has some very wonderful functions. Based on the research on the soul and the memory of magic power, Han Shuo gradually feels that undead magic has something to do with it.
The awareness of the soul and the changes in spiritual consciousness have something in common.
Especially in this realm, the divine consciousness that can sense the aura of all the surrounding creatures, create illusions in the human soul, plant magic marks, and other wonderful functions, and the spiritual power that communicates with the magical elements that are everywhere in this world, seem to be strangely similar in some ways.
On a whim, Han Shuo even thought about whether demonic skills and magic could be integrated and complement each other's disadvantages and advantages and disadvantages.
However, for the current Han Shuo, it is still very difficult to implement this wonderful idea. Because in any field, Han Shuo has not yet achieved true proficiency. It will be a long exploration process to integrate the two.
.It seems that it cannot be implemented in the short term.
"Soul Tremor" is a magic that uses mental power to attack the opponent's soul. Han Shuo used living monsters to test it for two days. Coupled with his understanding of spiritual attacks, he gradually figured out some key points in the past two days.
Walking out of the death cemetery on the third day, Han Shuo felt a pleasant sense of comfort as the warm sunshine shone on him. When Han Shuo was inspecting the progress of Brettel City, Dick appeared out of nowhere. He came to Han Shuo respectfully.
Shuo said next to him: "Sir, according to your instructions, I have sent out your invitation. The five mountain people leaders in the surrounding mountains have agreed to go to Brettel City for a banquet in seven days."
Smiling slightly, Han Shuo looked at Dick deeply and said pointedly: "Dick, you are also a mountain man. I know that I will leave this matter to you, and you will not be disappointed."
Of course, otherwise, with your methods, all the mountain people leaders who dare not come will suffer. I don’t want to be the mountain people’s sinner. Dick thought secretly in his heart, but his face was respectful. He smiled and said: "My lord will
The killing of the red-bearded bandits gave the mountain people confidence, and I think they must be full of hope when they go to the banquet this time."
"Maybe I'm more afraid. Haha!" Han Shuo looked at Dick with a smile and said. How could he not know what those mountain people thought? Dick said everything. They naturally knew what to do.
"Uh... there should be a little bit. Hehe!" Dick replied with a dry smile. Looking into Han Shuo's eyes, Dick felt that Han Shuo seemed to know everything in his heart. He couldn't help but feel a little scared. www.ptwxz.
