Release that Witch Chapter 608: Cold Wind Ridge
...
Soli Dull crossed the gate of the broken castle with satisfaction and walked into the castle of Hanfeng Town.
Win Cold Wind Ridge in three days? Aside from the two days spent on the road, it took him only half a quarter of an hour to break through the walls of small town. Of course, the one-man-high mud fence is still not a problem. There were also very few guards on guard. After being cut down by Judgement Army, the two fled, and there was almost no formal resistance.
This is the town guarding the frontier?
Kingdom of Greycastle is no different.
The only thing that dissatisfied him was that when the Church army was still halfway up the mountain, the beacon under his feet was emitting smoke, as if they had expected to attack the town.
Although it will be sooner or later for northern region to see the alarm in other territories, this awesome approach still makes him somewhat angry that the Holy City team is regarded as an enemy in advance, indicating that they have long been blasphemy. He has already sent a small team of Judgement Army to the beacon station, ready to catch these people to question, and then send them to hanging post.
"Please go this way, sir," the Knight trembled. When the sword rack was on the neck of the group, the Knights did not show the sacrifice of protecting the feudal lord, but immediately surrendered to their knees and declared their willingness to be loyal to Church.
This is the ugliness, cowardice and helplessness of people without faith. It is not worth mentioning compared to Judgement Warrior fighting for gods.
After killing several personal guard along the way, Judgement Army broke into feudal lord's study and blocked any windows that could escape. Although Soli felt that the other party did not have the courage to jump out of the window to escape. He stepped slowly into the room, looking at the pale Cold Wind Ridge feudal lord and slumped in the chair.
"Good afternoon, Lord Kevan Madon."
"You, how dare you break into Cold Wind Ridge ... Holy City is difficult. Do you want to openly oppose Greycastle?"
He is over, Soli thought, fear completely deprived him of his mind. Resisting Evil Beast on the Hermes defense line for decades, Archbishop has tempered a unique ability that is taste fear. Some people can turn fear into a desire to survive, while others will only be afraid of absorb. The former is a necessary quality for Judgement Warrior to be promoted to God Punishment Army, while the latter will be eliminated by the endless **** battle.
Kai Feng is obviously the latter.
"Yes, did you already know this?"
"What? No! I don't understand what you are saying is What does it mean"
"It's too late to regret it now, sir," Soli interrupted. "Purchasing food at a high price and forbidding merchants from going to Holy City, don't tell me that you only did this when you came up with something ... Greycastle King wants to change Cold Wind Ridge to attack Holy City Of the outpost, naturally we can't blame us for launching a counterattack in advance. "
"You are blameless!" Kai Feng repeatedly shook his head. "I didn't do these things at all. King never sent envoy to Cold Wind Ridge, let alone actively attacked Hermes!"
"It does n’t matter if you do n’t admit it, His Excellency the Pope naturally has a way to know that he wants to get the news he wants from your head, but it ’s not good for you at that step, so you still have to explain everything you know now It ’s better to come out. "
"I and I haven't done this, you can't wrong me!" His plump body shrunk again. "I'm Cold Wind Ridge's feudal lord, Earl of Kingdom of Greycastle! Your behavior has violated the Months of Demons convention!"
"Enough, this is what you asked for."
Soli Dull waved annoyingly, Judgement Warrior immediately dragged him out of the study.
After Archbishop sat down on the seat of feudal lord, there was something vaguely wrong. feudal lord is clearly overwhelmed by fear, why is he still biting and not let up? Does he just go to Roland Wimbledon so he would rather be escorted to Holy City for interrogation instead of traying out the plan of King?
Just then, a presiding judge walked into the room, "Master Bishop, Pithos has blocked the granary, just ..."
"Just what?"
"There is not much grain in it at all, it is estimated that only enough for the townspeople to eat for a month or two, impossible can support an army."
"Are you sure?" Soli frowned suddenly.
"Pithos turned over the granary and asked the keepers. They said that there has not been a large amount of grain recently. The wheat in the warehouse is still in stock from the previous year." Land Exchange Report.
"What's the news of the high-priced food purchases uploaded by the town?" He thought for a moment, "Go to those merchants and ask situation."
"Yes." The other side nodded and said, "In addition, we also searched the city's SS camp. Most of them were unoccupied. According to the surrendered Knight, since the Border Army was overwhelmed by Hermes, I have not been able to get an effective supplement. "
In other words, Cold Wind Ridge is not ready for war at all? This is too far from the information provided by Zero. The ditch of Archbishop forehead deepened, and he ordered after a long silence, "There must be Church's believers in this town, call them together, and ask in detail about the changes in Cold Wind Ridge's in the past two months. There are those who volunteered to Church's, and the local Mouse , Also questioned, I want to immediately understand what the **** is going on! "
The Chief Justice fists in his chest, "I'll do it."
Soli leans on the back of the chair, released a long breath. Offensive Greycastle is a long-determined plan. The process and seizure are not important, but he does not like this unexpected feeling at all.
What's wrong?
The next day, the presiding judge will return the collected information to the desk of Archbishop.
Soli opened the first page and quickly swept through the confessions of the crowd, "Two local businessmen are buying the grain, and there are as many wheat stocks as possible?"
"That's what businessmen say," the presiding judge whispered, "After learning about this, I immediately searched the two people's homes, and indeed there was a lot of food in them, but that was just a total of the personal piled up in the basement. It doesn't add up to twenty. And there is no one in the house. It should have escaped shortly after the flames were burned.
"You mean ... collusion?" The bishop quickly understood what the other party meant.
"Yes, adults, only by collaborating with foreign merchants to pretend to buy and sell, from the left hand to the right hand, and then smuggling from the right hand back to the left hand, can this illusion be created.
"Where do those traders come from?"
"The towns of Northern Lands, Quiet Valley Town, Eternal Night City, Hengfeng Fort ... The high-priced acquisition started one month ago, and not many people started to care about it. It was not until the number became larger that it attracted the attention of businessmen. .We have detained all the merchants in the town, but we have not found the guys who are delivering food. "
If the two are really colluding, the chances of catching them are slim. It's just ... What's the purpose of the other party doing this? Just to attract the attention of Holy City and let His Excellency the Pope launch an invasion as soon as possible?
Soli puzzled to the next few pages of the report, and another message came into his eyes.
"The patrolman in charge of the beacon ... dead?"
