"There aren't many soldiers in that city at all.
You already knew that, right?"
Faced with Athena's questioning, Castev would naturally not admit it.
Anyway, he was the only one present who could speak Aboriginal language.
As long as he refused to admit it, it would be difficult for others to refute him.
“There should be three to four thousand people in that town, and two to three hundred soldiers is already too much, and besides, they are all cavalry.
This seems a bit strange.”
Lorne really couldn't call such a shabby place a city, the small towns were already praising it.
Seeing that Athena and Castev seemed to be at a stalemate, he expressed his opinion.
It's just that the Baron's statement made Athena very dissatisfied, because Lorne didn't come to hug her thigh, but acted in a non-helpful manner.
But in fact, Lorne was just telling the truth.
For an island country and not a complete island country, the number of horses would naturally not be luxurious enough for one person to ride.
Think carefully about the cavalry that attacked them.
They were all riding the island country's unique pony horses.
At first, Lorne thought that the nearby city must be a big city to have such financial resources, but now it seems that is not the case.
"King Castev, you also saw that the ship has sunk.
If you still want to cooperate with us, please tell the truth."
Lorne is the only one who can call a pirate a king.
Baron Fast gave Castoff enough face, which was also where the language barrier gave Lorne a headache.
Of course, if there were any special circumstances, Lorne would definitely part ways with this group of conspicuous pirates.
Pirates have no faith, and he, Baron Fast, has no credibility either.
Seeing that the matter could no longer be concealed, Castev finally told the truth.
Just as Lorne suspected, this guy was dishonest from the beginning.
He knew better than anyone what the situation was like in that walled town.
A seaside city with nearly 4,000 people, there are less than 200 regular soldiers.
Last year, this guy even brought people here to collect protection fees.
Of course, if he didn't think it was too troublesome to attack the city, the pirate style would not just collect some money and leave.
But Lorne was not concerned about the original situation in the town.
When he asked the Pirate King, the Baron said: "Then why do more than two hundred cavalry suddenly appear in such a small place now?"
"How many soldiers are there, including members of my Stuart family?"
Athena also asked Castev, but in fact they both had similar questions.
Castev simply told them: "We encountered so many cavalry because we happened to meet the time when they were recruiting troops, but the situation is not too bad."
Indeed, Lorne Benri thought there was an army performing a mission nearby.
Now that Casteff said it was just recruiting troops, Lorne immediately felt relieved.
But the situation is definitely not as light as what the Pirate King said.
Castev continued: "There are still about a hundred regular troops in the city, and there are more recruits, about three hundred.
There are also witch guards, including the one who escaped.
There are three witch guards among the guys.
By the way, those residents aren't that easy to deal with either.
If we work together, we should be able to gather four to five hundred guys with weapons. " Listening to Castev's calculations there, more than a thousand troops with little training would indeed be no small matter if Lyle and the others were there.
But at this moment, their combined strength is less than a hundred people.
Although they are relatively powerful, it is said that two fists are difficult to beat with four hands.
He looked at Athena, and the strange thing was that the girl was also looking at him.
He was surprised why the eldest lady would look at him at this time, but being attracted by Athena would definitely not be a good thing for Lorne.
Quickly turning his head to the side, the baron listened carefully to Casteff's speech.

The Pirate King also talked about the key point at this time, but that was not the news that Lorne wanted to hear.
"But those are not troublesome.
The most troublesome thing is that our whereabouts have been exposed.
Although they did not come to hunt us, from their actions of sinking the ship, I am sure these guys are preparing to leave us behind.
The longer we stay, the more likely we will not be facing those farmers. " Castev understood the thoughts of these islanders.
He said that there would be reinforcements, and the Pirate King would definitely not talk nonsense about life-threatening matters.
Since he couldn't stay here, Lorne naturally thought of running away.
They haven't gathered enough manpower yet.
If they don't run away at this time, are they still going to stay and seek death?
It's a pity that Baron Fast was not the one who made the decision.
After hearing that there were still so many dangers, Athena not only did not immediately give the order to escape, but this crazy woman actually planned to attack the city with such a small number of people.
"So we still have time.
As long as we kill the three witch guards, we should be able to capture the city."
"Yes, the witch guards are the rulers here.
As long as you kill them, the remaining people will not resist.
Then we can find the fishing boats hidden by these people.
Although they cannot sail far with these things, they are safer than on land. " Castev answered Athena, and Lorne understood what they meant from the conversation between the two.
It seems that Athena has no confidence in evading the wizard's hunt.
As for Castev, expecting this cunning pirate to show them the way is simply a daydream.
But if they go on the road together, Castev will still cooperate with Athena for the sake of his own life.
Just attacking a city, even a small and extremely crude village, was something that Lorne didn't think they could do.
It would be even more difficult to kill the Witch Guard under the protection of nearly a thousand people.
Lorne hoped that Athena could calm down, but it really didn't work.
As long as she separated from Castev, these wasteland pirates could attract the attention of the wizard army.
Strength is also possible.
But because of the sense of the meat ball, Lorne still retains his trump card and doesn't feel that he is cornered.
Athena could not find any safer way besides taking risks, not to mention the nearly a thousand indigenous soldiers who were not taken seriously by her.
In other words, she felt that it was Lorne's turn to show his usefulness at this time.
After studying Lorne's fortune history, Athena found that defeating powerful enemies with inferior forces seemed to be Lorne's specialty.
Before Lorne could express his opinion, the eldest lady looked at the baron.
Perhaps it was because Baron Fast was so obedient during this period that it gave Athena the illusion that she could dispatch Lorne at will.
In a completely commanding tone, the girl said to Lorne: "Lorne Fast, you were very good at dealing with large numbers of enemies when you were in the North.
There are less than a thousand peasant soldiers now.
Find a way to get rid of them
