"I should have thought a long time ago that this is exactly the way the eldest sister behaves." Gavin laughed loudly, "In this case, I will give you another idea, rely on the mountains to rely on the mountains, rely on the water to rely on the water, and Darauma will rely on Is.
River, we must tap the full potential of this river."
"Why didn't I think so? But the previous city lord was a short-sighted fool, and the relationship with the elves in Mir Forest was very tense. They prohibited the Dalauma people from cutting down any tree in Mir Forest, and the shipbuilding industry here suffered a fatal impact.
.
The lords and nobles of Dalauma responded to the call of the great nobles of other cities and took their fleet away from Dalauma.
I currently have only a dozen or so ships of various types in my hands."
Speaking of this matter, Zalanda gritted her teeth a bit.
The current food crisis in Darauma is not only related to the over-density of the population.
It was also because of the joint economic blockade launched by other warlords and nobles against her.
The speed of her rise is so fast that it is already shaking the foundations of other warlords and nobles.
However, they were limited by the contract of cultivation and recuperation signed under the witness of the goddess of strategy, and could not launch a large-scale war against Zalanda.
But killing does not necessarily require the use of a sword.
An economic blockade can also kill a force, especially a new force with an unstable foundation and a lack of military force, which is even more deadly.
"I know." Gavin knew something about Zalanda's predicament. "How can new ships be refurbished as quickly as old ones? I believe there must be a lot of old ships sinking under the Is River. All we need to do is salvage them all and repair them.
.”
"Salvage the sunken ship." Zalanda frowned and said, "This is no small task."
"If it were purely manpower, it would definitely not be a small task, but with the help of the Enlightenment Tree, this task would be much simpler. As a voter of Ms. Strategy, I believe that it is not difficult to mobilize some of her priests. The most difficult thing will be then.
The thing is to find the location of the sunken ships." Gavin showed Zalanda an advantage that she did not have.
"Enlightenment trees?" Zalanda said angrily, "I would like to, but where can I get enlightenment trees? I don't have extraordinary druids under my command."
"Of course it's me." Gavin pointed to his nose and said, "I can help you enlighten ten or eight trees."
"伱? Do you know how to enlighten? Aren't you a psychic?" Zalanda's face was filled with disbelief, but her eyes widened even more in the next second, "You really know how to enlighten!"
Apparently he recalled Gavin's attribute panel with his extraordinary memory.
Previously, she was only interested in being shocked by Gavin's true profession and series of special abilities, and she didn't really have time to think about it carefully.
After all, Gavin gave her one shock after another.
"I told you before that I have a connection with the Fairy Wilderness. I once helped them solve some troubles and signed a covenant. This is the covenant reward." Gavin explained patiently, "I can not only help you enlighten some trees.
, we can also go to Mir Forest on your behalf to try to ease the relationship between Darauma and the Mir Forest race. If it can prompt you to sign an alliance, that would be even better."
"If that's the case, that would be great." Zalanda turned around happily.
Darauma and Mir Forest are too close, the straight-line distance does not exceed 20 kilometers, and they are close to the Tessa Road, the trade road that runs through Tethyr.
If this problem can be solved, Darauma will have a stable rear area, and even be able to bring a large area of fertile land between the two river basins into its rule.
"Don't get too happy yet. I just say try, but it doesn't mean you can actually succeed. After all, the natural races in different forests are very different." Gavin did not dare to say too harshly.
"Nothing in this world is 100% perfect." Zalanda nodded clearly, "It's better to try than to have no solution at all."
"Before that, I also ask my eldest sister to collect as much information as possible about the indigenous people of Mir Forest, including the main races and forces, including the past conflicts with Dalauma. I need them all."
"No problem, leave this matter to me."
"Sister, if you still have any problems, why don't you tell me everything and let's discuss it together. Maybe I can provide some original ideas."
"Okay, come with me..."
After these two incidents, Zalanda knew that Gavin was no longer the little boy hiding under her wings. He not only had his own unique insights, but also had many incredible abilities.
It was a huge problem for me, but for him it might just be a matter of raising his hand.
This has proven to be the case.
Gavin's thoughts and ideas are very strange, and he is often creative and uses those humanoid races to attack.
He can even come up with a trick to support a tribe of hobgoblins in the marching mountains and let them do earth-shaking things there.
If controlled well, it is indeed an effective method.
With the way of war in hand, Zalanda is not so afraid of the monster tribes that have gathered into an army. Instead, it is the large number of small tribes that are scattered and wandering around, which brings them even greater trouble.
It's just that this method is a long-term strategy based on having sufficient resources.
Gavin took the initiative and suggested: "Our cooperation is a long-term matter. We will slowly discuss the remaining details. It is almost time to go out. We have stayed here long enough. If we don't go out, your
Your subordinates should be worried, I have prepared other gifts for you."
"There are still gifts? Why don't you bring them too?" Zalanda immediately became energetic after hearing this.
She was a little numb after receiving all the gifts today, but no one thought there were too many gifts.
"This gift is a bit big, so I can't bring it in."
"Then what are you waiting for? Let's go." Zalanda took the initiative to lift the last shelter.
"Ouch!"
A huge figure was caught off guard and knocked its head to the ground.
Who else could it be but King Kong Barbie Nora?
She had been waiting outside, originally thinking that the two of them would come out after communicating for a few hours, but she never expected that the wait would last for three or four hours.
Out of boredom, he leaned against the magic barrier and fell asleep.
Nora had an agility that was inconsistent with her huge body. Even in a dazed sleep state, her body had already reacted before her head hit the ground. With a push of her big hand, she jumped up from the ground.
A pair of big eyes peeked inside, and when he saw Gavin next to Zalanda, he couldn't help but show a big smile and said: "Master Gavin, you are indeed back, haha... In the past six months, you have been
Where have you gone? We miss you. Of course, the one who misses you most is the city lord, our captain..."
When he said this, his eyes couldn't help but fall on Zalanda, if it were in the past.
Zalanda had already become angry from shame, but this time, it was very calm, no, there seemed to be a hint of shyness.
Abnormal, really abnormal.
What kind of magic did Master Gavin cast on Zalanda?
"I miss you too. I miss the militia very much." Gavin said with a smile, "No, after only half a year, I couldn't help myself and came back to see you."
"I tell you, the militia now is very different from before." Nora couldn't help but show off, "Our cavalry is now called Nott Guards, and our militia has also become a regular army, named Nott.
Legion, and I am the general of Nott’s Legion.”
"Haha... I never thought that a wild girl would become a general one day." Gavin couldn't help but laugh.
In Nott Castle, apart from Zalanda, the person with the best relationship with Gavin belongs to the King Kong Barbie in front of him.
At that time, their personalities and body shapes were all in inverse proportion.
Not occupied by the magpie nest dove, Gavin's character is relatively cowardly and timid, and his body shape is thinner than that of his peers.
Nora was born in the wilderness and has half-giant blood. She has been tall and strong since she was a child, and she is not afraid of anything.
Because they were also discriminated against and excluded, people with such huge contrasts slowly came together.
Nora stood up to protect Gavin, and Gavin used his status to get extra food for King Kong Barbie, who never had enough to eat.
"Hehe... that is, Master Gavin, you dare to call me my old nickname. The grandsons of Fort Nott have all become like the city lord, sitting upright, meticulous, and meaningless at all." Nora said with a little dissatisfaction.
Curling her lips, her strength is increasing, but her bold temperament has not changed at all.
While talking, Gavin and Zalanda had already walked to Nora's side.
Gavin couldn't help but gestured at the height of the two of them, squeezed Nora's arm, and said with a smile: "Wild girl, have you grown again? Why do you feel that the height gap between the two of us has not become smaller?
, but bigger?”
Being pinched by Gavin, Nora jumped away as if she had been stung by a scorpion.
There was a blush on the baby's face that was not in line with his figure, and he stuttered a little when he spoke: "I have to tell the other people in Fort Nott the good news about Master Gavin's return. I'm leaving first..."
Young Master Gavin is obviously still the same Young Master Gavin, but the aura exuding from his body is very different from half a year ago.
He exuded a very good smell, very familiar and very warm.
But I can't remember what this smell is. It's a bit like the natural smell of the wilderness, a bit like the warm sunshine in spring, and a bit like the gentle breeze in summer.
The area pinched by it felt like it had been exposed to electricity, and it was numb and numb.
Nora had never had such a feeling since she was a child. She felt as if her heart was about to beat out of her chest.
Even in a violent state, there is no such feeling.
"Wait!" Gavin held one of Nora's big hands, "Don't publicize the news of my return for the time being."
Normally.
It was impossible for Gavin to drag Nora, on the contrary, he would probably be dragged around by her.
But the moment her hand was held, Nora felt that all the strength in her body was taken away, and her legs became a little weak.
Charm boost from the Queen's Heart and Chosen of the Goddess of Incomplete Strategy.
With Gavin's Charisma attribute reaching 20 points, the Super Charm Reward Female Friend has been permanently activated, and the infection damage to women has skyrocketed.
In particular, he and King Kong Babin Nora have grown up together, and their relationship is no less special than Zalanda's - at least Nora's relationship with Gavin is so.
Now it is further amplified and catalyzed by this ability.
The person involved, Gai Wen, has not yet fully realized this. After all, it is an invisible temperament that is aimed at outsiders and is difficult to detect on his own.
"Okay." King Kong Barbie's fury that belongs to King Kong is gone, leaving only the well-behaved Barbie.
Seeing Nola's appearance, Zalanda couldn't help but taste it: "You can only tame this wild girl. She has never been so obedient before."
What she tasted was not Gavin's taste, but Nora's.
"Haha...really? In this case, why not let her go back to the valley with me? I am short of a strong general who can charge forward." Gavin joked.
"What a beautiful thought. If she leaves, Nott's army will be leaderless." Zalanda shook her head and refused without hesitation.
"Am I mistaken, she is a soldier of our Nott family, and I am now a serious Mr. Nott..." Gavin stopped abruptly in the middle of his words.
It seems that I accidentally brought the topic into a minefield.
The expressions of Zalanda and Nora both turned gloomy.
