Bab 174: Here comes trouble
"Nonsense!" Lan Fake gave the old evil a blank look, and then said proudly: "The combat effectiveness of our troll warriors is very terrifying, as long as they are given good enough weapons, the number of monsters they kill can be multiplied, and the casualties will be greatly reduced, and the combat effectiveness of these 2,000 weapons is enough to be as low as ten thousand light!" And they don't need to eat or drink! "
"Okay, you don't think you can suffer a loss." The old evil then said, "I will order them to handle this matter when I turn back, so you better hurry up and say that bad news now!" "
"Okay, the bad news is that I wanted to go to the human border city a few days ago to see the situation, but I was blocked by a human army halfway through!" Lan Fake said solemnly, "At least 1,500 of them are regular troops from the Gryphon Kingdom, and the other few hundred are mercenaries of various races. The regular army here has a high combat effectiveness because it has to deal with the bandits wandering around it all year round. Don't look at the strength of each of them, but the biggest feature of the army is that it acts in unison, and it is well grounded, especially when attacking fortifications, it is particularly powerful. And those mercenaries are not vegetarians, they have been providing protection work for merchants passing here all year round, and they have fought with the bandits in the surrounding beasts, humans, dwarves and highland barbarians, and their combat effectiveness is very fierce, including many masters of the fifth or sixth level. With more than 2,000 people killed, even if there are more than 30 cyclops in your castle, it may not be able to resist! "
"Ugh!" Upon hearing this, both Path and the cyclops king Salas on the side couldn't help but be taken aback, obviously, they didn't think that they could fight more than 2,000 regular troops plus high-level mercenaries.
"Hah!" However, after hearing this, the old evil not only did not panic, but immediately laughed: "Where is this bad news." Clarity is good news! "
"Good news?" Lan Fako suddenly smiled bitterly and said, "You don't think they're easy to handle, do you? I can tell you, don't expect me to do it. My goal is too big, and as long as I do it, others will know that it is me. And if the people of the Gryphon Kingdom knew I was here. Then your family is in big trouble! After all, my relationship with your family is obvious. You know, openly annihilating thousands of regular armies in the kingdom, even if the Stephen family is powerful, it is definitely undeserved. "
"You don't have to do it. I'll do it myself! The old evil immediately laughed: "That's more than 2,000 people are equipped, I'm still struggling where to get you 2,000 epee and tomahawks, this is someone to send it." Hehe, they can help us solve half of the problem with less talk, right? "
"Hey, most of their equipment is human spears, only the head is a little iron, you won't send us with that kind of garbage, right?" Lan Fako immediately said dissatisfied.
"Nope. I mean bring back the low-grade iron they brought with them, and here the cyclops will be rebuilt into the giant weapons you need. That's all right? The old evil smiled and asked. Okay, but the question is, how do you fight? Lan Fake smiled bitterly and said, "That's 2,000 elites, those ordinary soldiers are good to say." But those mercenaries are all the color of the knife licking blood. It can be described as a hundred battle elites, among which the senior warriors of the beast race stand almost half. Even if we dispatch the troops of our troll race, it will take at least 200 to barely defeat them. In your hands now, more than 30 cyclops, 200 monsters, just want to fight with others? Isn't this looking for death? "
"It's okay, it's too simple." The old evil didn't care and said, "We don't still have it."
The old evil just said this. Pas hurriedly shouted to the side, "Dear master." If you want to use the number four to put down more than 2,000 people next door in the desolation. Please prepare 100,000 gold coins for me first, plus a few years, otherwise, I can't make so many number fours? "
The old evil originally wanted to say that he used No. 4, after all, he had a good time at the headquarters of the Black Dragon Society last time, but he didn't expect to be interrupted by Pas in advance. At this time, the old evil realized that using this thing in the open Gobi was obviously different from using it in a closed castle.
However, the old evil was still not in a hurry, and he immediately changed his tone and said, "Who said I want to use number four?" Does it cost so much money to deal with them? "
"So what are you going to do?" Pas immediately said curiously.
"Hehe, it's very simple, steal the camp!" The old evil laughed evilly.
"Camp stealing?" When Lan Fake heard this, he immediately rolled his eyes and said disdainfully: "I said, are you crazy?" Just point people, you go to sneak up on people's homes? Isn't that looking for death? "
"You don't understand, I ask you, where are they now?" The old evil suddenly asked, "How far is it from us?" "
"More than 500 li, according to normal conditions, it will take at least twelve or three days to arrive." Lan Fako said.
"Hehe, the reason why they are walking so slowly may have something to do with the fact that they have to carry a large number of supplies, right?" The old evil smiled and asked.
"Nonsense, in this vast Gobi, there is no water and no food, they naturally have to bring their own, and there are nearly a hundred carts transported in the later stage alone!" Lan Fake then couldn't help but shake his head and smiled bitterly: "Just to get these vehicles and supplies, I'm afraid it will cost thousands of gold coins, I really don't know, why do they have to go to such great lengths to beat you?" Could it be that there are more gold coins worth here. "
"Hmph, I'm afraid that the gold coin is not the main thing, they think the location is here, right?" The old evil sneered.
In fact, the old evil really guessed correctly this time. It turned out that since the last time the people of the Augustus family were blackmailed here, they had the same thoughts. I also want to collect tolls here easily like the old evil. So he found a general of the family in the border city and asked him to fight for the family, or for the griffin kingdom, at all costs.
Of course, fighting a war is not a casual thing. Even the Augustus family does not dare to move the border guards particularly arrogantly, then it is a bit taboo, after all, they are not yet to the point of daring to defy the royal power. Therefore, the number two figure of the Augustus family, the Night Lord, only called the people here to prepare at the beginning and supported him with a sum of funds. Then he returned to the imperial capital and personally lobbied the high-level of the kingdom, and after the full operation of the Augustus family, soon the kingdom issued an order for the general of the Augustus family to go to the old evil fearless castle.
That's why they didn't arrive until today, after so much time had passed.
Lan Fake naturally didn't care why these people came, he only wanted to know how the old evil would deal with it, so he hurriedly asked the old evil spirit: "We don't care what they want to do, I just want to know how you defeat them!" "
"Hey, hey!" The old evil traitor laughed twice, and then said, "In the Great Gobi, the most precious thing is clear water. They are large in number of people, but they need a lot of water, so they do not hesitate to spend a lot of money to build vehicles to transport supplies. Now that they have walked most of the way, the clean water has consumed at least half, if we can destroy some of the clean water at night before they come here. It doesn't need much, as long as it's not enough for 2,000 people to drink. Ahem, you say, in this case, what will happen to them? "
After listening to the old evil words, a black line suddenly appeared on the foreheads of Lan Fake and the others. Lan Fake directly smiled bitterly, "You are really yin enough." If your plot succeeds, you can imagine that these guys have to fight in order to survive. "
"yes!" Pas also smiled bitterly, "The army and mercenaries are not monolithic, they only come together temporarily for money. As long as they have a fierce conflict, it will surely magnify their immediate rift infinitely and eventually lead to a terrible civil war. I'm afraid that when the time comes, we don't need to do it at all, and those people will kill themselves first. "
"Hehe, that's what I want!" The old evil said proudly.
"However, this is easier said than done!" Paz said: "How can the more than 2,000 people say that they are also fighting old battles, and they will definitely take strict precautions against their own **, how can they be broken by you so easily?" "
"This is to ask Lanfa first." The old evil then asked, "How many watermills do they have?" Do you use giant wooden barrels to fill the water, or directly use the entire oversized water wheel? "
"It was a large square water wheel with an extra large size, which should have been built. After all, barrels are expensive, and they can't afford to spend that money! Lan Fako said.
"How many water wheels are there in total?" The old evil asked, "Did you pull it with cattle?" "
"There are about 60 water wheels, of course, relying on people, how can there be so many livestock?" Lan Fake smiled bitterly, "You think the army is as rich as the caravan?" Their entire army only had more than 300 cavalry mounts. There are less than 100 horse beasts among the mercenaries. "
"Haha, no wonder they go slowly!" The old evil smiled and said: "Then it will be easy to do, as long as we break 40 water wheels!" Of course, more is better, after all, they may also kill mounts for blood, and we can't give them a chance. "
"But the problem is, you haven't said exactly how to do that?" Pas couldn't help but ask.
"Want to know how I them?" The old evil grinned and said, "It's too simple, hurry up and eat, when we have enough to eat and drink, I'll take the three of you and get them together!" "
"Huh?" Paz was dumbfounded when he heard this, and hurriedly said, "You mean, just tonight?" Just the four of us going? "
"That's right, haha!" The old evil said, picked up a piece of meat and stuffed it into his mouth, and then said: "Don't talk nonsense, eat it quickly, 500 miles away, far enough!"
