Who taught him to restore the country like this?

"Mr. Thompson, do you really intend to rebuild the defenses of those four cities?" Singer asked.

"Those four main cities are the passage fortresses of Thorn Ridge. If they are not renovated, more people will be displaced." Ron replied.

"But we don't have many people. If we disperse our forces like this, how can we deal with the army of Ziyang Kingdom?" Singh's worries were evident in his words.

"You don't have to worry about this matter. I will make my own arrangements when the time comes." Ron said calmly.

Singer looked at Ron's deep, unfathomable eyes and knew that further questioning would yield no answer. He could only suppress his doubts and anxieties. He bowed deeply, his voice heavy with resignation, "Yes, I understand."

After saying that, he turned around and quickly retreated.

On the city wall, the night wind seemed to be a little cooler.

Tallulah looked at Singer's departing back, and then looked at the teacher who was showing off after bragging by the city wall.

I couldn't help but wonder what gave the teacher the confidence to repel the enemy?

……

Early the next morning.

Ron's order was carried out.

A thousand soldiers and a thousand temporarily recruited civilians, transporting a large amount of supplies, set out on the road to the four cities.

Their mission was clear - to send refugees along the way and deliver supplies to various cities.

After completing the mission, they did not need to return to Silver City, but could go directly to Whitewood City to garrison.

When the refugees outside the city saw that Silver City had provided so many supplies and the soldiers who were sending them had a strong attitude, they basically all followed the sending team.

After all, Silver City has already retreated too many steps. If they refuse to retreat even a single step, they will most likely be treated as bandits.

Baihe City.

When the team transporting supplies arrived and the guard in charge of escorting conveyed Ron's orders, Reggie looked at the supplies in front of him and couldn't help falling into deep thought.

As for Ron's plan to rebuild the four cities, Reggie could barely understand it, as he had previously thought that reinforcements could arrive from the capital.

Although the Thorn Lord's troops were not strong enough to defeat the Purple Sun Kingdom's army, Ron was very good at buying time.

She believed that it would not be difficult for Ron to buy time for reinforcements from the royal capital to arrive.

But now, knowing that the two dukes had rebelled and were plotting to take over the capital, Regis's behavior of reorganizing the four cities was somewhat difficult to understand.

The king's inability to send reinforcements was practically a death sentence for the Thorn Territory.

In this situation, there is absolutely no point in reorganizing the four cities, and dispersing the troops will only accelerate the defeat of the Thorn Territory.

Even a fool could think of such a thing, and she didn't believe that Ron hadn't considered it.

And Ron still insisted on doing it.

He is either crazy or he has already come up with a plan to repel the enemy.

Even though the troops were at a great disadvantage and dispersed, they were still able to repel the enemy... Reggie thought about it for a long time and only thought of one possibility.

A possibility that made her feel a little scared.

"He wouldn't want to..."

……

The magical city.

In a nearby town, in a dim room filled with the scent of herbs.

A woman in a black gothic dress was flipping through a black book with one hand, while the other hand hovered uncertainly over several herbs on the medicine shelf in front of her.

Behind her was a three-legged crucible over one meter high, with dark green liquid bubbling and boiling inside.

At the door, a woman wearing a scarf was looking suspiciously at the woman standing next to the tripod crucible with unfamiliar movements.

"Master Alpha."

At this time, a soft call came from outside the door.

Alpha withdrew his gaze and slowly left the room.

"Is there any news from the capital?"

Outside the door, Alpha asked, looking at Ye who was wearing a black tights.

"As you expected, the two dukes of the Lionheart Kingdom raised an army under the guise of support, pretending to march to the border to repel the enemy. However, they actually launched a surprise attack on the capital when passing near it."

Ye reported respectfully.

Alpha nodded.

Now that the intelligence has come true, she should go to the Magic City to make the next deal with Princess Lola.

"Ye, you..."

Alpha spoke and was about to tell Ye to stay here to protect Beta in the room when he heard an explosion in the room.

The two of them immediately rushed into the house.

The unknown liquid in the tripod crucible kept pouring out like carbonated soda after being shaken, and the hot mucus splashed all around.

Beta had already skillfully hidden behind the medicine shelf.

It seemed that she had just made the wrong choice.

"...Lord Alpha, can she really make medicine?" Ye asked with a grim expression.

This is not the first time this has happened since I bought the medicine-making equipment yesterday.

At this point, the noise in the pot seemed to subside a little, leaving only the gurgling sound of the liquid.

Beta immediately jumped out from his hiding place, hurriedly grabbed a gray-brown, strange herb shaped like a windmill blade from the medicine shelf, and rushed to the still steaming crucible to try to remedy the situation.

Alpha silently watched Beta's obviously unfamiliar and even somewhat reckless movements. After a while, he answered Ye's question in a flat tone without any emotion:

“…I think so.”

……

On the other hand, the news that the two great dukes of the Lionheart Kingdom had rebelled and besieged the royal capital also reached the ears of the Thorn Territory and the Purple Sun Kingdom.

Chapter 128 How to prove that you are the king of the Kingdom of Lah?

Although the Zi Yang Kingdom accepted the invitation from the two dukes of the Lion Heart Kingdom, it has been maintaining a cautious attitude these days. After all, this seems too much like a conspiracy against the Zi Yang Kingdom.

Therefore, the Zi Yang Kingdom has not acted rashly these days and has been watching to see whether the two dukes of the Lion Heart Kingdom will really rebel.

At this moment, after receiving the news that the two dukes of the Lionheart Kingdom were besieging the capital, the Ziyang Kingdom could no longer hold back.

The vanguard army marched straight into the heart of the Thorn Territory.

They did not attack other main cities along the way. Their target was very clear, which was the Silver City, which served as the gateway to the royal capital.

As for the other major cities in Thorn Territory, they had their own rear-line troops to handle them. Furthermore, they had already ascertained Thorn Territory's defenses—their forces were dispersed, and the defenses of each city were extremely weak.

There is no need to worry about being attacked from both sides.

There is no need to worry that these people will run out of the city to stop us.

In this way, the vanguard army of the Zi Yang Kingdom galloped freely in the Thorn Territory as if they were in an empty land.

At the same time, in Silver City.

"Lord Thompson, thousands of cavalrymen from the Purple Sun Kingdom have crossed the border of the Thorn Territory and are heading straight for Silver City!"

On the city wall, the investigator came to report urgently.

Ron's expression remained unchanged, his eyes gazing calmly into the distance.

"Lord Thompson, do we need to dispatch troops from the other five cities?" the investigator asked hurriedly.

"No need," Ron retracted his gaze and took a sip of his teacup slowly. "It's useless to send them over. Besides, it's too late to do so now."

His tone was calm, as if he was talking about something insignificant.

Although this is indeed the case.

If the enemy's vanguard marches at full speed, they can reach Silver City in about half a day.

This amount of time is only enough to dispatch troops from Baiyan City and Baixing City.

However, the main force of the Thorn Territory is currently in Baimu City. It is useless to transfer troops from other main cities. It is too late to dispatch troops from Baimu City.

In the current situation, it seems that nothing we do can help.

but……

"Are we really going to do nothing and just wait to die?" Singer asked in a serious voice.

"Of course we can't do nothing."

Ron put down his teacup, and the porcelain bottom tapped the table, making a crisp sound. "Guests come from afar, so we naturally have to entertain them well."

"Please give me your instructions!" Singer's expression brightened. Could it be that Mr. Thomson had a plan to repel the enemy?

"Open the city gates and wait for the guests to arrive." Ron said calmly.

When these words were spoken, everyone was stunned, and then looked puzzled.

Open the city gate?

What is the solution?

Surrender?

This familiar operation reminded Tallulah of something.

"Teacher, are you planning to use the empty city plan again?"

Previously in Whitewood City, Ron used this trick to scare Ian away.

Although Tallulah thought this trick was brilliant, but... was it appropriate to use it here?

You often walk by the river without getting your shoes wet.

Especially since Ron had used it once before, she felt that the probability of Zi Yang Kingdom being fooled was very low.

"Mr. Thompson, this..." Someone hesitated and wanted to persuade Ron to change his strategy.
