At this moment, she had just finished wiping out the remaining forces in the castle.
I was resting in the castle when I saw Luo Sheng coming, and a smile suddenly appeared on my face: "You are back."
Aikeli is now like a lady looking forward to her husband's return home.
Luo Sheng gently held her hand and said, "You have been working hard recently. There are so many old forces in this city. It must not be easy to eliminate them."
"Well, we encountered a little trouble, but we still solved them perfectly. These people are just in large numbers, but their strength is very weak." Aikeli said truthfully.
Tosberg is a large city-state.
There are approximately 100,000 people living there.
Although it is less than one-tenth the size of the Kingdom Headquarters, it is still quite a large city within the Kingdom.
After all, this is not a modern place and there is no way to build a community that can accommodate thousands of people.
They still live in relatively primitive stone and brick houses.
Therefore, a city of 100,000 people is almost a large city-state.
At this time, Mary Fit said: "Those people are very weak, but now, this is not the most important thing, but most of the residents in the city ran away after hearing that this place will become a battlefield."
When Luo Sheng heard her words, he was immediately curious.
"How did they know this was going to be a battlefield?"
Mary Fit pouted and replied: "Who else could it be? Of course it is the Earl's forces that were previously entrenched in the city."
Aikeli also nodded and explained to Luo Sheng: "This was the Earl's territory before. He has been operating here for a long time, and the previous kingdom's suppression did not catch him.
He knew the news in advance and ran away, after we took over the Fort.
He began to send people to spread rumors in the castle.
It is said that Tosfort is the only way to go to the capital of the kingdom. In the future, the Holy See of Light will launch a large-scale attack on the kingdom. This place will definitely become the main battlefield, and the battle will be quite fierce.
In particular, sending a magician who won the border war to become the earl here will prove that His Majesty the King wants him to defend this castle, which will become a condition of negotiation with the Holy See of Light.
So when the nobles in the city heard the news, a large number of people moved outside, and many of them had already reached the capital of the kingdom.
There are only about 70,000 people in the city now, and most of them are in fear.
So when we recruited the army, no one wanted to come."
Aikeli explained in detail.
It can be seen that clearing out the old forces is not an important matter.
On the contrary, how to recruit an army is a big problem.
The people in the city have long been instigated by the rumors of the old forces and are so frightened that they dare not confront the Holy See of Light head-on.
Especially since the earl who previously occupied this place was in collusion with the Holy See of Light.
He continues to spread the power of the Holy See of Light in the city, and everyone who fights against him is nothing more than a mantis trying to defeat the chariot.
He also told all the common people that the Holy See of Light had recovered the two kingdoms, and now the religious country established by the Holy See of Light was already the largest empire.
If you help the kingdom fight against the Holy See of Light, you will only die.
Instigated by such rumors.
More and more people are rushing to escape Tosburg.
Not only the local nobles, but also a large number of common people.
Therefore, every day that passes, the number of people in the city will continue to decrease sharply.
I'm afraid that after a month, the population of Tosburg will not be half of what it was before.
This is the most troublesome part for Aikeli.
Of course, as rumors spread.
Mary Fit is also a little worried. If the war spreads here, will they suffer the same despair?
Mary Fit sighed helplessly and said, "I don't know when this war will end, and what they say seems to be true."
Luo Sheng rubbed her little head.
He smiled and said: "Everything they said is true. This is not just a rumor, there is still a fact."
Mary Fitt immediately opened her eyes wide: "In other words, this place will definitely become a battlefield in the future? And it's still the kind of situation where the city is destroyed and the country is destroyed."
Luo Sheng nodded without hesitation.
"It's exactly what you said. The reason why Aikoli was ennobled here is to let her guard this city, so as to obtain more negotiation conditions for the king."
Mary Fit fell silent immediately after hearing his words.
Unexpectedly, I came to the wrong place.
He immediately complained: "Why didn't you tell me earlier? If I had known, I wouldn't have come here."
But Aikeli couldn't laugh or cry: "We didn't want you to come in the first place, and we told you that this place was dangerous, but you said it didn't matter and you insisted on coming here."
"that is because……"
Mary Fitt was coy when she spoke.
It seemed like there was some last resort.
She looked at Luo Sheng from time to time.
In the end, Aikeli couldn't help but say: "I value sex over friends."
Mary Fit suddenly jumped up and retorted immediately: "That's not the case. I'm worried about you. After all, you are my good sister."
Aikeli and Luo Sheng both rolled their eyes.
Mary Fit didn't believe her when she saw both of them.
I had no choice but to change the subject and said, "Forget it, we'll talk about it later. Let's talk about what to do now, right?"
Luo Sheng pinched her cheek.
Then he said lightly: "They are just worried about dying in the war, but I have a way to alleviate their anxiety, which is to build a castle that can make them feel safe."
Although this method does not count.
But at least it's better than the current situation where nothing can be done.
Aikeli and Mary Fit nodded.
I think this method is still feasible.
However, Mary Fit suddenly became troubled, "This is easy to say, but it may be very difficult to build a stronger castle in a short period of time."
Aikeli also nodded, "According to the craftsmen currently available in Tosburg, it is estimated that there are less than a thousand people. If they knew that they were going to build a huge castle, no one would come here."
Mary Fit immediately echoed: "Yes, and building the castle cannot be completed overnight. It will take at least several years."
The two kept making calculations.
In the end, I felt that the feasibility of this method was very low.
Strictly speaking, it is impossible to complete.
Luo Sheng smiled and said, "Don't worry, I have a way to build a strong fortress instantly and let everyone live in it."
He just finished speaking.
Aikeli and Mary Fit both looked curiously.
Build a strong castle in an instant.
Totally impossible.
But Luo Sheng's expression was very confident, and he seemed to be able to realize it soon, which completely whetted their appetite.
Mary Fit could not wait to ask: "What is the method? Tell me quickly!"
"It won't be a secret if you tell me."
Luo Sheng's mouth just showed a faint smile.
I don't intend to tell this secret, otherwise it would be boring.
He slowly raised his hand to his mouth, made a shushing gesture, and said: "Let me show you off first, and you will all know when the time comes."
