System: Build My Own Territory Chapter 1122 - 313: Ignite the Entire Forest (10,000) (3)

In itself, it doesn’t have much marching combat capability and experience.

Bringing Earl along is more about letting him listen and learn.

Withdrew his gaze from their faces.

Lynn looked at Rose and Wesley again, and asked.

"If I’m not mistaken, we previously found a lot of tree resin from several manors in Morgan Town, right?"

Rose didn’t hesitate, responding, "Yes, Master."

"It’s not just a few manors in Morgan Town, but also in Connelly Manor and Louis Manor in Alba Town, all stored with tree resin."

"The tree resin found in Morgan Town was already transported back to your territory before."

"The resin transported from Connelly and Louis Manor is stored in the Manor Castle’s warehouse."

Lynn continued to ask: "How many pounds of tree resin are there in the Manor Castle warehouse?"

Rose replied: "Master, at least more than three thousand pounds!"

These tree resins are formed from the viscous liquid collected by cutting pine or coldwood.

Generally speaking.

They are heated and refined to make grease.

Added to oil lamps or applied to linen torch, for burning and lighting.

Or used for waterproofing and preservation of wooden buildings.

Or used for church ceremonies, among other things.

Therefore.

Various manors, big and small, would store some tree resin.

Lynn nodded and said: "Tomorrow morning, arrange for the tree resin in the Manor Castle to be completely melted by heating!"

Though not understanding why their Lord wants to do this.

Rose immediately responded.

"As you command, Master."

Lynn pondered for a moment and continued.

"Then transport all the melted tree resin to the forests of Morgan Town and Kakasong City, and pour it on the trees near the road!"

The eyes of the four, including Rose, widened instantly, faces full of shock.

Even if Lord Lynn didn’t tell them the reason.

They could already guess what the intention was.

Rose couldn’t help but ask.

"Master, do you mean to..."

Lynn made no concealment, coming straight to the point.

"Fire attack!"

"I want to use these three thousand pounds of tree resin as combustibles to ignite the whole forest."

"To burn Jon Zuck and his supporting manor lords to ashes!"

Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh~

Even though they had already guessed in their hearts.

But hearing the firm words from Lord Lynn’s mouth.

The tension and shock in Rose and the group grew stronger.

To the point that their breathing began to accelerate, chests rapidly rising and falling.

Lynn asked.

"Do you all have any objections?"

After exchanging glances, Rose and the group quickly withdrew their gaze, addressing Lynn.

"Master, Rose has no objections."

"Wesley has no objections either..."

"..."

The voices of four responses came in succession.

Lynn continued: "Then arrange a team of soldiers to go to the forests between Morgan Town and Kakasong City, to cut out a firebreak."

"Prevent uncontrolled burning in the forests, spreading to Morgan Town."

"At the same time, continue to strengthen patrol along the road to Morgan Town."

"Avoid Jon Zuck leading his armed group to bypass other small towns into Morgan Town to launch an attack."

Rose quickly responded, "Yes, Master."

Lynn thought for a few seconds, looking at the group of four.

"If there are no other opinions, this discussion ends here, you may all leave."

Rose and the others stood from their wooden chairs at the dining table, bowed and respectfully replied.

"Yes, Master!"

With clear instructions from Lynn.

The four had no more words to say.

In the sound of footsteps, they retreated and left.

Watching the four figures walk out of the reception hall, Lynn’s face remained calm.

When it was mentioned about using tree resin to ignite the entire forest, burning Jon Zuck’s armed group to ashes.

The shocked expression of Rose and the others was naturally observed by Lynn.

Even so.

Lynn showed no emotion or hesitation.

As a lord, it’s necessary to come up with all sorts of ways to ensure the safety of the residents and the territory, as well as his own safety!

...

Outside the reception hall.

The four of them walked towards the steps below the city wall.

Though at this moment they said nothing.

But the somber expressions on their faces showed their complex emotions.

The rather relaxed Wesley glanced at Rose, Earl, and Tyrone, and asked.

"You three seem to have doubts about the master’s ’fire attack’ order?"

Walking, Rose turned to look at Earl and quickly said.

"The master’s words are the highest directive."

"We cannot disobey or feign compliance!"

Earl and Tyrone both nodded in response.

Rose hesitated a bit and said.

"I just feel that using fire attack to burn people alive in the forest is a bit too cruel..."

The moment Rose’s voice fell, Wesley immediately continued.

"Cruel?"

"As the master said, if a group of twelve thousand armed with soldiers, guards, and peasants arrives."

"To attack Mr. Lynn’s Morgan Town and territory."

"Even if Mr. Lynn’s soldiers are protected with armor."

"But given such a large numerical gap, engaging in direct combat will certainly lead to massive casualties among the soldiers!"
