Chapter 2574 Arrangement
The barbarians have withdrawn to the camp, and Silver City is safe for the time being.
Count Tronny was particularly worried just now, and now he looked at Jia Zhengjin excitedly: "Miss Mashi, I didn't expect you to use such a simple trick to scare off the barbarians, it's really amazing!"
"In fact, the commander of the barbarians is too stupid, and they can be fooled like this!" Jia Zhengjin said, "After a while, they will figure out that they are being fooled. At that time, they will be angry and attack Silver City directly at night!"
"What should we do?" Count Tronny asked quickly.
"Lord Earl can order the army to plug the gap in the city wall during this period. We will make plans after the results of the investigation from Looney."
"But Miss Mashi, there is not so much wood and stone in the city at present, and it will be too late even if it is temporarily cut down..."
"If Silver City is breached by the barbarians again, the soldiers and civilians in the city will undoubtedly be spared!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Lord Earl can mobilize all the soldiers and civilians to move all kinds of furniture and equipment that can serve as shelters as temporary filling materials, at least to plug the hole in the city wall. Furniture and property are relative to life, I think most people are willing to give up property to save their lives!"
"Good idea!" Hearing this, Tronny's eyes lit up, and he immediately turned around and gave an order, "Notify the whole city immediately and contribute any furniture and equipment that can be used to plug the hole in the wall!"
"Yes!!"
The city immediately became busy, and everyone contributed enthusiastically, and many people even dismantled their beds. After all, surviving is the most important thing.
"Miss Mashi, you have scared off the barbarian army twice in a row. You have the demeanor of a great general, just like the generals fighting in the north! With you here, maybe we can repel the barbarians!" Originally, the barbarians were not a threat, but after experiencing a disaster, Tronny raised the danger level of the other party by several levels.
Jia Zhengjin shook his head: "From the current situation, the barbarian commander and the barbarian army are actually quite powerful, but they are relatively stupid and easy to be deceived. I think there is a big problem! Since the barbarians are so stupid, how can they suddenly summon giants, and even ambush, deploy troops, and even launch surprise attacks? Silver City was almost breached, which is not something the barbarians can do!"
"Indeed!" Tronny frowned when he heard it, "Miss Mashi's words make sense, but I can't figure it out. Unless... unless there is an unknown existence behind the barbarians, and someone is giving advice to the barbarians. But who is the other party? What is it? The purpose, I really can't figure it out! "
"The other party obviously knows that the Dawn Front is fighting in the north, and all the main forces have been mobilized there, so they incited the barbarians to raid Silver City, hoping to take the opportunity to disrupt the Dawn Front's position. If they successfully occupy Silver City and use it as a base to invade surrounding cities, the main northern army will be in chaos, and the Dawn Front Alliance will also be in chaos. Maybe the forces hidden behind will take advantage of the chaos to come out! "
"That's right!" Tronny's eyes lit up, and he looked at Jia Zhengjin excitedly and said, "Miss Mashi can figure out the connection so quickly, I admire you! You are worthy of being a descendant of a hero!"
What does it have to do with the descendants of heroes? Jia Zhengjin thought to himself, I haven't lived for thousands of years in vain.
"Miss Mashi, who do you think is the force behind the barbarians?" Tronny asked anxiously.
Jia Zhengjin shook his head: "It's not certain at the moment, we lack key clues."
"What should we do now?"
"Wait!"
"Wait?"
"That's right! Wait for Looney to come back,
Or, do you have any information about the barbarian camp?"
"No!" Tronny shook his head awkwardly, "Because we are in a state of defending the city, we didn't take the barbarians seriously before, so we didn't carefully scout the other side's camp. Later, we were surrounded and even the city was broken, and we had no time to understand."
"Then wait for Looney to come back. My Lord Earl, the barbarians will definitely figure out my deception just now and know that I am not a so-called wizard. Before they come back, the holes in the city wall must be blocked, at least not a barbarian can be allowed to enter the city. Without the giant, it is impossible for them to smash the city wall. At least survive tonight, and then think of other ways to see if they can make them withdraw."
"I understand! Miss Mashi, you are better at controlling the situation than me, big Everyone believes in the descendants of heroes, so during this period, you will command the army on behalf of us until the barbarians are repelled!"
"Since it is the order of the Earl, I will not be hypocritical!" Jia Zhengjin nodded and said, "I can't care about so many things at the moment, defending the city is the first goal. I hope the Earl can trust me completely!"
"Of course!" Tronny said loudly, "Miss Mashi scared off the barbarians twice in a row. With this strength, we absolutely trust you!"
"That's good! Earl, please notify the whole city that even ordinary people, as long as they don't want to die, regardless of gender, age or young, will be temporarily assigned to the Silver City garrison, and weapons and equipment will be immediately assigned to serve as temporary combat power. What we are facing is the barbarians with an absolute advantage in numbers. Even if the other side does not have giants at this moment, our advantage of standing on the city wall is quite dangerous. Therefore, the military and civilians must be united to resist the barbarian army together!"
"I think so too!" Tronny nodded and replied, "Don't worry, Miss Mashi, there will be absolutely no problem with this!"
"Well! Then, please hurry up, Lord Earl."
"Miss Mashi, how about you guys?" Tronny asked.
"We won't sit idle either!" Jia Zhengjin said, "Considering that the barbarians may attack again at any time, the furniture and equipment used to block the breach in the city wall may not be 100% useful. My companions and I will set up a large number of traps near the city gate to ensure that the barbarians will be hit hard when they attack the city again."
"Traps?"
"Yes! We are absolutely confident in traps! At the same time, those giant heads are military merits and cannot be wasted." Jia Zhengjin said, "We will move them into the city immediately to prevent them from being stolen by the barbarians at night."
Tronny was speechless when he heard this. He thought to himself that the giant head was useless even if the barbarians stole it! Only the Dawn Front Alliance can exchange this for military merits. If someone takes it, it is just an ordinary head, which is meaningless.
But he didn't say it, but nodded: "Okay! Miss Mashi, let's split up into two groups and prepare separately!"
"Well! Lord Earl, don't worry, it's very quick to set up magic traps. As long as we are well prepared, we can make sure that the barbarian army will never return!"
"Yes! We must make sure that they never return, so that they know how powerful our Dawn Front Alliance is!" Earl Tronny said excitedly, "Even if the main force is transferred to the north, even if it is just the most ordinary army, we must let the barbarians know that we are not easy to mess with!"
