After pondering for a long time with his head down, Owen decided to think differently to find some clues.So, he looked up at Ryan and asked, "Ryan, has the old king ever been to Frontier Town before?"
”"Nope."
Ryan shook his head, "The old king has never visited the border town, and it has always been the old master who personally went to the royal capital or Dongsheng Fortress to meet the king. ”"Dongsheng Fortress?
When was the last time my father went to Dongsheng Fortress for an audience?
”Owen asked.Ryan thought for a moment and replied, "Twenty-two years ago, the old king visited the Dongsheng Fortress, and the old master went to meet him. ”Worst!
The time is still right.Dongsheng Fortress is Duke Eddie's territory, did the old king accidentally leave a seed over there at that time?
Well......
It seems like it's possible.Forget it, that's the end of it.Thinking of the letter sent by Duke Eddie, Owen really didn't know what to say.This guy actually wrote in the letter that the third prince, White Wells, is a kind-hearted and benevolent heir to the throne.If it weren't for the fact that the third prince was a ruthless man when he visited Owen not long ago, he might have really believed that guy's nonsense.If Owen really has the blood of the Royal Family of Wales, the third prince will never let him go.Therefore, if Owen really goes to the royal capital to verify the truth, it is possible that he will never come back.However, choosing to continue to retreat in the border town would not be against the will of the new king?
Coupled with the fact that this kind of rumor continues to spread in the kingdom, the third prince will inevitably regard Owen as a hidden danger and want to get rid of it quickly.In addition, Duke Eddie also urged Owen in the letter, so that after receiving the letter, he immediately set off for the Dongsheng Fortress.Looking at it like this, it seems that the third prince doesn't have much time left for Duke Eddie, otherwise why would he be in such a hurry?
In other words, if Owen ignores Duke Eddie, it is very likely that the other party will hastily send troops to arrest him.In this regard, Owen will definitely not be caught obediently, and he can also settle the account with him last winter by the way.A field battle may break out between the Frontier Town and the Dongsheng Fortress, so you have to prepare in advance.Thinking of this, Owen's face gradually became gloomy.Seeing that Owen didn't speak for a long time, Ryan opened his mouth and asked, "Master, are you worried about the rumors?"
”"Sort of."
Owen responded, "I have every reason to believe that all of this is a conspiracy by Duke Eddie. ”"Is it Duke Eddie again?"
Ryan looked worried.Seeing this, Owen grinned and said confidently: "Please rest assured, Ryan, I have my own way, and I am not afraid of him." ”Owen then left the castle and went to the camp on the northern wall, where he discussed the matter with Viscount Jarvis and Rusha.Knowing that Duke Eddie might send troops, Viscount Jarvis confidently picked up a new gun, saying that he would lead the People's Army to beat the other side to the ground.If it was in the past, he would definitely not be optimistic about the border town, the reason is naturally that there are many people on the side of Dongsheng Fortress.Now that he had a powerful new weapon in his hand, Viscount Jarvis was a little inflated.Rusha, on the other hand, will send a team of fifty people from their village back to support Frontier Town, and says that he will speed up the formation of a new lizardman unit, and it is time to select the Black Wind Clan to come and train.In order to grasp the movement of the Eastrising Fortress, Owen instructed Rusha to send several agile lizardmen to monitor it, so as to be the first to know the news of Duke Eddie's army.In addition, the royal capital should also pay attention to the fact that Owen is going to let a personal guard act as a spy and quietly go over to spy on the news.The KPA will step up its training from tomorrow.This time, their enemy is not the undead monsters of the north, but the army of the Dongsheng Fortress.After the meeting, Owen made a special trip to the steam engine factory to inform Geeta to speed up the production of the new musket.The new ammunition will continue to be produced and stockpiled at the current daily level.With the implementation of one order after another, the border town once again entered a state of readiness.This time, Owen decided to deal a devastating blow to Duke Eddie.…… Two days later, in the afternoon, Owen received a report from Clive that someone had come to apply for the captain of the new ship."
I see, you bring someone here, I'm going to ask him a few questions."
Owen commanded."
Yes."
After Clive stepped back, Owen hurried to the second floor and called Yuchina, who had just come home from school.Bringing Yuchina to the office, Owen crouched down in front of her and admonished, "Yuchina, remember to do what I taught you later, you know?"
”"Hmm!"
Yuchina nodded, "I know!"
”Owen brought Yuchina here to borrow her ability as a high-level vampire to see through lies.In order to recruit the captain as soon as possible, Owen's recruitment requirements were not high, and the salary offered was very good.It is precisely in this way that some people will choose to take risks and fabricate their experience of sailing in order to deceive the captaincy of the ship.Prior to this, in fact, two people had already applied for the position of captain.It was a hassle to see through the interview, so Owen simply asked Yuchina to identify whether the other party was lying.If the other person lied, Yucina reminded him by squeezing Owen's hand that if he didn't lie, he would do nothing.The two people before were seen through by Yuchina, and they were so frightened that they knelt on the ground and begged for mercy."
Very well, I'll leave it to you later."
Owen stood up and reached out and stroked Yuchina's hair.The latter closed his eyes and seemed to enjoy the process.Next, Owen went to his desk and sat down in his chair.As soon as she sat down, Yuchina immediately ran over and climbed onto Owen's lap and sat down."
Huh?
Yuchina, didn't I have a chair for you?
”Owen gestured up to the chair next to him."
No, I want to do this position today.Please, Brother Owen. ”Yuchina turned her head and looked at Owen with a pair of large, pitiful eyes.Looking at those pitiful big eyes, Owen really couldn't bear to refuse."
Uh......
Well, whatever you want. ”"Thank you, Brother Owen!"
Yuchina smiled.It wasn't long before Clive brought the man who had come to apply for captaincy into the office.The applicant was a middle-aged man with a beard and dark skin, who was not thin, but not strong, but he gave him a very lean feeling.When he followed Clive into the office, he saw a little girl sitting on the lord's lap, and a flash of surprise flashed in his eyes.The man thought in his heart: I didn't expect the lord of Frontier Town to have such a strange hobby, he likes young girls, how can he feel that many nobles have special sexual fetishes.If Owen had known what the candidate was thinking, he would have kicked him out and never hired.This lord is backed by a tech tycoon
