Chapter 7 Preparation, Counterattack (Part 1) ()

Murphy's act of leaving with a flick of his sleeves made Mrs. Elizabeth's face show a trace of embarrassment, and there was also a hint of anger and hatred.

As the first in line heir to the 3,600-square-kilometer territory to the north of the southern plain, even her husband had to be careful when speaking in front of her, let alone embarrassing her so much. The pricked pride of the nobility made her look like a kitten being molested. The fluff all over her body was almost fluffed up, and she wanted to grin her teeth and pounce on Murphy and bite him hard!

But she is a woman with the title of [Purple Thorn Flower] after all.

The more angry she was, the more she told herself to calm down. Now she needed to rely on the young lord's strength, because if they were driven into the uninhabited wilderness, they would probably be surrounded by jackals soon.

At that time, it was really impossible to escape even with wings.

"Madam..." The middle-aged knight who had been silent all this time suddenly said, "If there is a boat, maybe we can..."

"It is indeed impossible to block the water route with the ability of the jackals." Madam Elizabeth looked at the guards outside the Governor's Palace and whispered, "But I just fled to the rear like this? Expecting the noble council?" Can the group of vampires leave us with something after defeating the gnolls?"

That is obviously impossible!

After defeating the Gnolls, the soldiers who died in battle needed pensions, and the soldiers who fought bravely needed rewards even more.

What reward?

In this era, the best reward is land!

And what the soldiers desire most is land! Because you own the land, you own everything!

People without land are sad, because they will never have a place to live, just like fallen leaves, even if they die, they can't find a place to return to...

The land in the southern plains had already been divided up by the noble council, so where did the extra land come from to reward the soldiers who made great achievements in battle?

Undoubtedly, those nobles who failed to defend against the Gnoll's attack and lost their territory would become big cakes for the spoils after the war. What is certain is that after defeating the Gnoll, the noble council will definitely award the lost land, and then try to get involved in part of it.

Maybe after the war, I can keep the title of nobility, but all the glory of the past will be lost!

How long can the family inheritance last if the territory is lost?

Losing his territory, what is the difference between himself and those vase-style ladies?

As the first heir to the 3,600-square-kilometer territory from the southern plain to the north, Mrs. Elizabeth has always been the focus of pursuit by young nobles throughout the southern plain. Because as long as you marry this woman, you will get the noble title of hereditary marquis, and you will marry a vast land of 3,600 square kilometers!

But to everyone's surprise, Mrs. Elizabeth's final choice turned out to be a well-known canonized knight. Regardless of his brave looks or his background, the guy favored by [Purple Thorn Flower] is undoubtedly a toad!

As a result, rumors abounded throughout the southern plains.

Some people say that Mrs. Elizabeth actually likes women, and marrying the knight is just a shield. It is also said that Mrs. Elizabeth's desire for power is not weaker than that of men, and she wants to firmly hold the family and territory in her own hands. So she must marry a cowardly and humble husband!

Because according to the provisions of the Noble Council, the title of nobility can only be inherited by men.

In the aristocratic class in the southern plains, there has never been a precedent for women to inherit titles.

Amid the gossip, this delicate [Purple Thorn Flower] finally married a woman. After that, she continued to govern the territory in the name of the Marquis Elizabeth.

Lady Elizabeth's astonishing beauty and her commendable communication skills have given her a very high reputation! And her business operations amazed everyone! Being married, she did not reduce her suitors because of this. On the contrary, her outstanding ability made countless people desire to be favored by her. As for her original husband, he has long been forgotten by people.

Just as she was gradually gaining the recognition of the aristocratic circle, she was preparing to spend a sum of money to buy off the aristocratic council and obtain the title of the first Marquis in history.

Everything came to an abrupt end!

Under the ferocious offensive of the Wolf man, everything seemed like a dream.

Her husband in name, a knight who was very brave at the beginning, has been corrupted in a few years of luxurious life to the point where he trembles with fright when he sees a jackal!

This man who was admired by her at the beginning, but now she loathes and spurned him, actually ran away before the battle even started!

A luxurious life will wear away the sharpness of a warrior, and under the powerful halo of Mrs. Elizabeth, her husband in name has even lost all the blood of a man!

He fled the territory overnight with his cronies, and took all this year's taxes with him.

This is undoubtedly a very heavy blow to the morale of the territory!

After waking up from the memory of the past, Mrs. Elizabeth showed a bitter smile. She was silent, and then whispered: "What a failed deal!"

A failed marriage...

Lady Elizabeth said silently in her heart.

Putting away her lost emotions, as a woman who values ​​both wisdom and beauty, when the sun shines into the hall, she has already begun to think about how to bridge the gap with Murphy, gain Murphy's trust, and persuade him to migrate with her To the human rear.

If he could get the support of the young lord, coupled with the wealth accumulated by the family for generations, maybe he could reorganize an army and regain the lost ground!

Even if you can't, as long as you have an army in your hands, you will no longer be a lamb at the mercy of the parliament!

The crux of the problem is, how can I gain the trust of that young lord?

Mrs. Elizabeth hesitated for a moment, and finally raised her white fingers, and gently took off the veil on her face...

The training progress of the town barracks is quite impressive. When Murphy visited here for the second time, these recruits had already begun to learn how to use shields to block. The training under the personal guidance of the general is different. As long as the formation of the Greek phalanx is trained again, these recruits can be regarded as initially possessing combat effectiveness.

On the strategic map, the gathering speed of the wolf man is accelerating, and it is obvious that a powerful wolf man leader is integrating these scattered wolf man tribes.

After thinking about it a few times, Murphy decided to take the initiative to attack after the recruits completed the basic training and took over the defense, and wiped out all the gathering points of gnolls that had not been integrated!

Be the first to attack!

Once the Jackals are all integrated, he will not have the slightest chance to come back under the general trend!

Now, Hamilton's general guard is being organized, and it will be completed by tomorrow afternoon at the latest. Three newly trained Greek infantry plus half of the general guard, although the combat effectiveness is not high, but it is enough to maintain the law and order of the town and protect the safety of the Athens town.

As for Murphy, he will take his general guard, Spartan heavy infantry, and a half-team of Greek infantry to encircle and clean up the scattered gnoll gathering places. Be sure to eliminate more than 40% of their forces before the surrounding gnolls are integrated!

But what he had to do today was to hold a large-scale god sacrifice ceremony.

The auxiliary system of "Total War" clearly told him that as long as the number of believers reached, the temple could be upgraded. At the same time, as the temple is upgraded to a temple, the priests in charge of the temple can make a medicine called [Holy Water], which can treat wounds and some simple diseases.

The purpose of Murphy holding a large ceremony was to increase the number of followers of Athena, the goddess of wisdom.

People follow blindly. Under this kind of religious ceremony, the possibility of urban residents becoming believers will be greatly increased!

As long as the number of believers is reached, then what Murphy will do next.

It is to test the healing effect of the holy water, and then arrange the intensity of the next battle to encircle and suppress the wolf man according to the healing effect of the holy water.

His purpose is to weaken the enemy's combat power, so all battles are aimed at minimizing their own losses.
