To the south of the kingdom, the city of the lion's roar.Earl Claude is now the lord of the city, appointed by White to take over last year.In the past few days, he has been almost tired to death, and he has a headache.Because of the joint invasion of the southern borders of the kingdom by the Asians, several groups of refugees flee north to the city of Lionroar every day to seek refuge.In order to maintain order in the Lion's Roar City, Count Claude naturally could not let the refugees into the city, so he temporarily resettled them in the suburbs outside the city.But it can't go on like this, as more and more refugees flee north, it will become more difficult to manage, and there will not be so much surplus food to help them.In addition, many of the nobles in the south were also very afraid of the subhuman union, so they abandoned their own people, carried as much money as possible, and took a carriage with their families to the city of Lion's Roar to seek refuge.Just then, a knight entered the room and reported, "Lord Earl, a new group of refugees has arrived from the east. ”"Alas—" With a sigh, Count Claude reached out and rubbed his eyebrows, and without much thought, asked, "Which village was destroyed by the subhuman race this time?"
”"According to the refugees, they fled from Bibo County."
The knight replied."
What?!"
Count Claude couldn't believe it, and for a moment wondered if he had heard it wrong, and confirmed it with the knight again."
You're talking about Bibo County?
That's right, right?
”"That's right, it's Bibo County."
The knight affirmed.After receiving an affirmative reply, Count Claude suddenly felt a chill in his back, and the fear in his heart could not help but appear on his face."
Is the subhuman alliance attacking too fast?
Won Bibo County so quickly?
”Isn't Bibo County headed by Moonlight Queen Triesther Wells?
The troops under her command can't resist the subhuman alliance, and the enemy is too strong."
Not really."
The knight also said, "According to the confession of the refugees, Bibo County was set on fire by Queen Moonlight herself......
"Scared to death, it turned out that it was not a subhuman union.Still, Count Claude was a little incredulous, why did Trist do it?
After thinking about it carefully, he roughly understood the other party's intentions.What a vicious woman!
The degree of ruthlessness is no less than White, seeing that there is such a big mess in the south, in order to retain his own strength, he decisively chooses to quit and dumps this mess on others.What now?
Even Trist has run away, can she hold the Lion's Roar City?
Oh, and what about the refugees outside the city, who didn't even think about driving out the Asian-United?
At the thought of this, Count Claude suddenly felt that his head was big, this was too difficult!
I can only ask for help from my son, who has been working hard since he was a child, and there must be a way to break through the current predicament.Then the Earl of Claude looked up at the knight and commanded, "Quickly, go and call my son Dreden." ”"Yes."
The knight led the order to retreat.It wasn't long before Dryden Claude arrived, and as soon as he entered, he asked, "Father, what are you looking for me?"
”"Oh, my son, you're here at last."
As if he had seen a savior, Count Claude hurriedly stood up and said, "You must help my father, I am really out of luck." ”"Don't panic, father."
Before coming, Dryden had expected that his father must be worried about the matter of the subhuman union, so he had to ask for help from him."
You explain the details to me first, I can't give any advice without understanding the situation.""
Okay, no problem."
Count Claude hastened to respond, then pointed to a chair beside him."
You sit in that position, and we'll sit down and talk about it."
After both of them sat down, Claude slowly explained the current predicament of Lionroar City.First of all, Lionroar didn't have that many troops, and when White captured the city last year, he wiped out most of the living forces.You know, a qualified knight needs to go through more than ten years of rigorous training, and it is impossible to replenish it so quickly.Neither the peasants nor the refugees outside the city were combative, and the mercenaries were unreliable, and the Lion's Roar was very powerless in the face of the menacing subhuman alliance.Originally, White also promised that when everyone in the Royal Capital Knights was equipped with muskets, he would sell this powerful new weapon to Lionroar City.Now it seems that there is no hope at all.Second, if the number of refugees continues to increase, there will inevitably be severe food shortages.Again, the reason has to do with White, who burned down two large granaries when he led his army into the city last year.It's spring ploughing season, the wheat seeds have just been planted, and they won't be harvested until autumn, and there is a premise that the subhumans can't unite to interfere.This is obviously impossible.There is no food to give, and it would be bad if a large number of refugees outside the city rioted because of hunger.But where do we get enough food?
Eventually, when Earl Claude mentions the matter of Bibo County to his son, Trist ruthlessly runs away, leaving the South as a mess that Lionroar is simply unable to deal with.“…… That's the case at the moment. ”After talking about the difficulties facing the Lion's Roar, Count Claude looked at his son expectantly, hoping to get a solution from him."
Dryden, what do you think my father should do now to quell this rebellion in the South?""
Hmm......"
Dreddon browled slightly into deep thought as he propped his chin on his right hand."
As it stands, it's pretty tricky."
Hearing this, Count Claude instantly fell into disappointment, and even his son said so, this rebellion in the south may be insolvable."
Is there really no way?"
He still didn't give up."
It's not for nothing."
Dryden spread his hands, "Father, you can ask the new king for help, if he is willing to help, it will not be a problem to quell the rebellion in the South." ”"Asking for help from the new king?""
That's right."
Dryden explains: "How powerful is the old king with a new weapon called the musket?
You should be well aware.Even so, the new king took the royal capital in less than a day.It can be seen that the army he led is not ordinarily strong, and it will definitely be able to deal with the subhuman union. ”"Will he help us?
We're ......

"Fathers." ”Faced with his father's doubts, Dryden interrupted: "The old king has been defeated, and the new king will unite the whole kingdom sooner or later."
The sooner we offer our loyalty, the sooner we can get rid of the name of the remnants of the old king. ”"I'm not worried about that."
Count Claude put on a worried expression and leaned forward slightly in the direction of his son."
I have heard that the new king has taken all the land from the Dongsheng Fortress and its surrounding areas, and it seems that he intends to promote reforms and implement a new system.Asking the new king for help means that I surrender to the new king, and my territory will not be ......"
At this point, he did not continue, believing that Dryden had understood."
But I've also heard that the new king seems to have tried the new system in Dawn City, and there have been no problems so far.Moreover, when the land was taken away, the group of nobles in Dongsheng Fortress did not show strong resistance. ”Unexpectedly, Dryden was curious."
It seems that there is something about that new system, and I really want to study it."
Hearing this, Count Claude suddenly became uneasy about his son."
You don't want to support the new king, do you?""
No, I'm just curious."
Dryden shook his head.Then he said, "Father, asking the new king for help is the only feasible way at present, do you want to save your life, or do you want to be a land?"
”"I want both!"
Count Claude hurriedly said."
In this case, then father, prepare to join forces with the new king and the subhumans."
Dryden smiled slightly, "As long as you can win, your wish can come true." ”With that, he got up and prepared to leave."
Wait, wait."
Seeing this, Count Claude hurriedly called his son and changed his mind.If he could win the battle and unite the new king and the subhumans, he Count Claude would have already claimed the king, how could he be willing to be the lord of a mere lion's roar city."
I'd better ask the new king for help, but I'm still worried about the ...... of the new system."
Dryden proposed, "I'll visit the Fortress of Ascension and Dawn City while the new king deals with the subhuman union, learn more about the new system, and report back to you when I return." ”"Then listen to you."
Count Claude finally relented and got through the current crisis.After writing the distress letter, he sent someone to send the letter to Junhui City urgently.This lord is backed by a tech tycoon
