Working Prophet

Wilder not only gave the old priest travel expenses, but also sent two guards to escort him out of the city very considerately.

Afterwards, he and Ilea entered the city lord's palace and continued to discuss follow-up matters.

"Just yesterday morning I received a letter from Adele Hughes. She said that there were many bandits and bandits entrenched near Cape Plenty, and the local villagers were tortured so miserably by them that they could no longer survive.

"Adele Hughes wants to help the villagers form a militia specifically to suppress bandits."

"What do you think?"

Ilea did not rush to express her position, but asked instead.

Although Adele also came from a noble family, as a woman she was not an heir and was sent to the temple to study very early, so she was not so sensitive to some things.

But Miss Rabbit has been a lord for so long, and she knows that it is difficult for ordinary nobles to tolerate uncontrolled armed forces in their territories, because this may threaten the foundation of their rule.

"I promised her," Wilder said, "as long as she can ensure that the militia is always under the leadership of Shuangxiujiao."

"Um?"

A look of helplessness also appeared on the face of the head of the Singleton family, "Although we have recaptured Cornucopia now, I don't have many people available on hand. We still have to guard against enemies in nearby towns. There is really no redundancy." The troops came to deal with those robbers.

"Instead of letting them continue to wreak havoc, it's better to ask Adele Hughes and the others for help."

"That's true." Ilea nodded.

"The most important thing is, I heard that you gave Shuangxiu the power to form an army."

Miss Rabbit readily admitted, "Yes, I trust Merlin, and without the black dog guard, my territory may have been destroyed by the black dragon."

"I also trust your judgment, so if that militia belongs to Shuangxiujiao, I have no objection." Wilder said.

"In addition, after this battle, we should have captured a lot of weapons and armor. I was wondering if I could select some of them that are of average quality and not very valuable and use them to arm the militiamen."

"This is a good idea." The female lord said, "We can also transport more food to Adele and the others."

"Since we want to raise an army, we will definitely be short of food. Moreover, the Golden Valley has been ruined by the invaders. I am afraid there will be another famine this year."

Wilder's expression was also very serious, "The spring plowing has now passed. I hope that production can resume in the autumn. Otherwise, not only the Golden Valley, but also the entire continent will have famine next year."

However, as he spoke, he couldn't help but sigh. He also knew in his heart that it was basically impossible to end the war before autumn.

Although the Wing Tribe people have retreated, the land they swallowed is not so easy to spit out.

No matter whether it is someone like Ebrusus who has family members as hostages in the hands of the Wing Tribe people, or those who take advantage of the troubled waters, they will not surrender easily.

In fact, Wilder still had something to say. If Ilea is willing to lead her army to continue fighting eastward, and with the help of the dragon, it shouldn't be difficult to conquer the Golden Valley with continued efforts.

But the female lord didn't seem to have this intention at first. She was very satisfied with being able to regain the Western Territory, and the destructive power of those Wing Tribe people who came here was quite large.

There are many things waiting for Miss Rabbit to deal with in the subsequent reconstruction, and all the nobles of the Western Region are also looking forward to returning home soon.

In addition, after all, Wilder is still a vassal of the Campbell family, and the Golden Valley is the territory of the Campbell family. If Ilea just swallows it up, it will be somewhat unfair.

Therefore, this idea just circulated in the head of the Singleton family, and he did not say it out loud.

It just so happened that Ivan also came back at this moment, and brought back good news.

Those Wing Clan members withdrew early in the morning, leaving only two people responsible for supervising Ebrusus, and those two people also took advantage of the night to escape last night when they saw that the situation was not going well.

But even though they ran fast, they couldn't move everything away.

In fact, the Winged Tribesmen could not carry too much supplies because they had to maintain their flying ability. They had robbed a lot of things in the Western Territory before and piled them back in Corner of Plenty, without having time to transport them back to Lionheart Castle.

These things were all lost and recovered after the female lord laid down the Horn of Plenty.

And a large part of it was donated by the lords who had surrendered before. They were too embarrassed to ask for it back, so Miss Rabbit took it for herself without ceremony, and the rest returned to the original owner.

No one had any objections to this allocation, and Ilea also picked up about 600,000 gold lions for free, which made her smile crookedly.

Who said before that the Western Region is poor? Doesn’t it look like it’s quite rich?

If it weren't for Solomon's search, Ilea wouldn't have known that everyone was so rich.

And the new batch of captives on hand can be sold for another sum, and she will make a lot of money this time.

After Wilder's enthusiastic persuasion, the soldiers of the Western Region stayed at Cape Plenty for four more days to celebrate the victory of the war.

It wasn't until the early morning of the fifth day that Ilea was about to take people away, but she heard another rumor.

After the death of Duke Theodore, it seems that some members of the Campbell family fled north to seek help from the Allister and Monteverde families.

Allister also agreed to his request and agreed to send troops to the Golden Valley. However, it was not easy for them to get here. They had to capture Lionheart Castle first, and they didn't know how long it would take to get here.

However, with Solomon's defeat in the Western Territory, Allister, who had been silent for a long time, did become active during this period.

First, he sent a messenger to find the female lord, and then he announced that he would regain the Western Territory. It was also said that the Monteverde family had begun to mobilize the army, and it seemed that they really planned to leave the Northern Territory.

The female lord felt that it was a good thing to have one more person to look for trouble for those Wing Clan members.

I just don’t know when the two sides will fight, and Miss Rabbit is not very optimistic about Allister. Although the Wing Tribe people suffered heavy losses, they still have two dragons and many followers.

And those nobles who have surrendered definitely don't want the Wing tribesmen to be defeated like this, otherwise they will always be labeled as traitors, and they will spit out the land they gained before.

Seeing that there was nothing going on here in Golden Valley, Miss Rabbit also led the army back to the Western Region.

Just when everyone was about to arrive at Songshi Castle, a small group of cavalry of unknown origin suddenly appeared from behind the team. After being surrounded, the leader said they were here to find Yiwang.
