System: Build My Own Territory Chapter 1204 - 327: The Thrill of Power (10,000 Words)
Previously on System: Build My Own Territory...
Listening to the Lord’s inquiry.
Balin’s expression was hesitant, somewhat stuttering.
"My Lord, as for whether Simo is dead and the subsequent situation, we have not yet investigated."
"However, before leaving Kakasong City, Balin learned."
"The prayer ceremony originally scheduled for today by the church was cancelled!"
Lynn nodded slightly in response.
Balin’s eyes moved slightly and continued to speak.
"My Lord, aside from this intelligence, we coincidentally discovered the culprit who hired assassins to kill Simo!"
Lynn raised his eyebrows again, somewhat surprised and asked.
"Coincidentally?"
Balin awkwardly explained.
"Yes, my Lord."
"We were drinking at the Riverside Rest... gathering intelligence!"
"We happened to meet Sir Ludovico Dons and Harry Cohen, the Free Nobility from Kakasong City."
"These two should be regulars at the Riverside Rest Tavern."
"Even late at night, they still chose to enter the Riverside Rest to drink."
Lynn stared at Balin, waiting for him to continue.
Balin continued.
"Perhaps due to excessive gin consumption, leading to some disorientation."
"We clearly heard them plotting and deciding to hire the Raven Killer Organization to assassinate Simo!"
Lynn felt a burst of satisfaction in his heart.
The Free Nobility from Kakasong City hired the so-called ’Raven Killer Organization’ to assassinate Simo.
Regardless of whether Simo is alive or dead.
It naturally has nothing to do with him.
The only thing Lynn cares about.
Is that he sold gin to Hunter Zuck.
And deployed the spy team led by Gaspar at Hunter’s Riverside Rest Tavern.
Indeed.
The tavern is the best and cheapest place for intelligence gathering.
Almost without much cost, one can obtain useful information.
After reporting all the intelligence gathered.
Balin bowed respectfully.
"My Lord, that is all the intelligence we have gathered recently in Kakasong City."
Lynn pondered for a moment, without speaking, quickly thinking in his mind.
With the current development speed of Morgan Town and the territories.
Lynn needs to invest more energy to accelerate the development of Morgan Town and the territories.
Meanwhile.
Also quickly use up the labor force and various goods brought back from other supporting Manors by Rose’s three Commanders.
But this does not mean.
Lynn can ignore the situation in Kakasong City!
It should be known.
There are at least over fifty thousand Free People in Kakasong City.
That’s over fifty thousand laborers!
As soon as Kakasong City is occupied
Lynn can take possession of these over fifty thousand Free People.
The labor force level and development speed will surge again!
Thinking of this.
Lynn once again stared at Balin opposite him and spoke.
"Balin Riley."
Upon hearing the Lord fully call out his name.
Balin’s body suddenly shivered, and he quickly responded.
"My Lord, Balin is here!"
Lynn pondered for a moment and instructed.
"I need you to immediately return to Kakasong City and convey my orders to Gaspar."
"You can try to make initial contact with Sir Ludovico Dons of the Free Nobility."
"From your contact and interaction with Sir Ludovico, probe Ludovico’s views and attitudes towards Morgan Town."
"If the contact and conversation go smoothly, Gaspar can inform Ludovico."
"If necessary, Morgan Town can cooperate with Ludovico, even providing military assistance!"
Lynn switched the conversation seamlessly and continued.
"However, to obtain military assistance from Morgan Town, Ludovico needs to pay a certain price!"
"As for the content of the price... Ludovico can come to Morgan Town, and I will discuss with him face to face!"
Balin did not dare to hesitate, bowed and replied.
"Yes, my Lord!"
"Balin will do his utmost to convey the Lord’s orders to Captain Gaspar."
"Even if it costs Balin his life!"
Lynn nodded and dismissed Balin standing in front of him.
Balin, bending his body, retreated swiftly.
In less than half a minute.
Balin, riding on horseback, urged his swift horse beneath him continuously.
Giddyup, giddyup~
In Balin’s loud calls, the steed galloped on the dirt road scattered with stones, towards the distance galloping away.
Until ultimately disappearing from Lynn’s sight.
Lynn knitted his brows slightly, still pondering the situation in Kakasong City.
At the moment of Lynn annihilating Jon Zuck and his supporter Manor Lords.
Lynn had already considered.
Whether to take advantage of Kakasong City’s weak defense and immediately launch an attack to seize Kakasong City in one fell swoop.
Since choosing the tactic of forest fire attack.
Besides consuming thousands of pounds of tree oil.
Wasting the soldiers’ consecutive days of physical strength to chop and burn the isolation zone.
Lynn did not lose a single soldier!
It means.
Lynn can completely dispatch armored soldiers to launch an attack on Kakasong City.
Ultimately, Lynn abandoned this idea.
Not to mention.
Dispatching armored soldiers to attack Kakasong City would face resistance and counterattack from the residents within the city.
Ultimately, the armored soldiers participating in the siege may suffer large-scale casualties.
The most crucial point is.
Instead of crazily initiating expansion wars.
Lynn is more willing to expand step by step, steadily!
