Chapter 0788 panic
One of the major benefits of building forts and setting off firecrackers in the fog town was that it scared the tax police force of the Buqi family to retreat. After all, Baron Bishop suffered a great loss here half a year ago, and the family's direct descendants did not want to die by themselves.
So the blockade became a joke.
After being blocked in the dense fog town for more than half a month, the merchants had long been unable to hold back.
When Powell entered the town of fog, many caravans rushed into the territory of Banshee Castle, and a carriage filled with explosives mixed together and headed south.
Also heading south was news of the invasion of the northern army. Friedman Buche received a message from the frontline wizard on the night of the firecrackers in the Dust Mist Town - saying that it was Victor Hugo's army that launched an attack.
For the first time in his life, the head of the Buqi tribe was awakened by a rapid knock on the door outside the bedroom in the middle of the night. When the maid opened the door, she found that there was not only the housekeeper in the mansion with a panic looking mansion, but also the guard captain of the mansion, the city defense commander and many high-level nobles standing outside the door.
Friedman failed to complete any ritualization steps. He got up from the big bed in his pajamas and asked in surprise: "What happened?"
"Your Excellency, we have just received a magical message from Shitan Town. The monster from the Black Forest came from the north." The butler stood at the door, burst into tears in his eyes. "The message said that the direction of the Dust Mist Town used great power magic."
war?
Everyone else at the door looked solemn. Friedman put on his clothes and hurried to the Wizard Tower, where there was convenient communication.
The moment he left the house, Friedman asked in confusion: "Hugo is coming to hit us? Why is he coming to hit us? It doesn't make sense. He should go to interrupt Bridge City."
No one could answer this question. The powerful group did not get more information from the front line of Shitan Town to the north until they arrived at the Wizard Tower and used the prophetic arcane.
The tax personnel who were carrying out the blockade mission were the initial reason for hearing a continuous loud noise from the direction of the dense fog town. So the first blockade line retreated, leading all tax inspectors to escape wildly and rush back to Shitan Town.
And then...?It's gone.
The front-line tax officials were too panicked and asked the wizards stationed in Shitan Town to send more than a dozen warning messages in a row, all of which were nonsense calling for help. They were shouting for the enemy's attack without even seeing the enemy's hair.
But Friedman didn't dare to be careless and quickly ordered Shitan Town to organize personnel to go back and investigate. At the same time, Banshee Castle also sent a team of family knights to conduct investigations, and to confirm with his own eyes what the hell is doing in the Thick Mist Town?
Orders were issued, but news of the war was coming spread throughout the city.
It seemed as if Mars lit at night, and the whole city was boiling with a bang.
When nobles of all sizes heard the news in their sleep, they screamed in surprise and were busy cleaning up the fine materials. They ran out at night to inquire about it, wanting to know more.
On weekdays, people talk a lot about what would happen if they start a war with the north. Strong counterattack is the mainstream, and they will be criticized for being too weak if they defend the city. But no one expected that when things really came to an end, everyone's first thought was to run away quickly.
In just half an hour, the streets of the city were filled with carriages that wanted to escape. Some were going east and some were going west. Everyone was so anxious that their livers were getting angry, and they often started to fight if they had disagreements.
The enemy did not see it, but the internal strife in their own homes was killed or injured.
The sudden chaos scared the exiles of the Principal of Os. Inesa got up at night and heard the news that the army in the north was attacking, and had already reached Shitan Town, fifty kilometers north of the city.
The princess' first thought was, "When did Victor become so strong?", and it was extremely difficult to lead a large army to attack without warning.
But when he thought about it, it doesn't mean that Victor couldn't do it. That kid has always been good at creating miracles. If he really hit him, he would definitely not give up until he achieved his goal.
"Tarak, fly to Shitan Town to see what happened?" Inisa asked her viscount to shout out.
The arrogant Viscount Tarak followed the order, took off the statue on his chest, released the flying dragon on it, and rode away with wings. The sky was indeed flying fast, and before the sun rose, more accurate information was brought back.
First of all, no army went south, and a team of kowtows who could fire their guns.
"Boggy?"
Friedman sat in the living room of the large council meeting, surrounded by all the elite soldiers and envoys from various northern regions, just to discuss the possible outbreak of war.
result......
"A group of kowtowers scared my tax officials so much that they fled dozens or hundreds of miles?"
Too unacceptable.
The city lord punched the oval long table where everyone was sitting, scaring the fat man opposite the long table - Tarak went to Shitan Town and took the tax officer back on his two-legged flying dragon.
There were more than 20 people in the hall, and they were all unable to sleep all night by the messages sent back last night. When they heard that it was a knighted man who was making trouble, everyone felt ridiculous and ridiculous.
When will humans run away by scared by kobolds?
Friedman felt embarrassed. He stared at the fat tax officer opposite him who had already wet his pants, waved his hand fiercely, "Drag this incompetent guy out and chopped me."
The tax officer shouted heartbrokenly at this moment, "Grandpa, please forgive me. Those kobolds can fire their fire. Who would have expected that there would be kobolds who can fire their fire? Have you ever seen anyone here? They can really fire their fire, what a big fire!"
The tax officials repeatedly shouted the word "fire fire", but they could not save their lives.
After the unlucky guy was dragged out, Friedman continued to ask angrily, "Princess Inesa, we are the only one here who knows Victor Hugo best. What is your judgment on the current situation?"
Inesa on the left side of the long table was forcibly asked to attend the meeting, and the first question fell on her. She frowned slightly and said, "Victor has always been unruly in his work. I am not surprised that he has a kobold under his command.
The korks are timid, weak, and have low strength, and are really not worth mentioning in battle. But as far as I know, the korks have a talent at least. They are good at digging underground tunnels and have a good grasp of engineering.
According to the frontline report, the dog-headed man appeared in the fog town in the form of an engineering team. Please think about this aspect, maybe you can deal with it better."
Without Inesa's reminder, everyone at the table knew what the engineering team should pay attention to next? Although Friedman was angry, he could only wait until further news could make a decision.
In less than three days, new news came continuously, confirming one thing - the dog-headed man really wanted to build a fortress in the Dust Mist Town. They also mastered powerful magical items that could start construction in winter.
