Mount and Blade System: Start from Pioneer Lords.

Chapter 42 Who is more stupid these days?
This is what Levi wants to figure out.

After all, what era is this? If these Feder survivors have not yet recognized the reality and still regard themselves as royals, Levi does not mind helping them recognize the reality.

"In fact, we have long been no different from the wild people in the Cass Mountains."

Beristina smiled bitterly.

In order to help her people find a backer successfully, she had to shamelessly give herself a little gold.

Even bringing the news of the wilderness organization coalition was one of her tokens of allegiance.

"understood."

Levi understood why Bai Ruisi Tina had deliberately given herself the title of Princess of the Kingdom of Fede. It was nothing more than to increase her own value in the hope of getting a good treatment.

Just like he named his current territory Gaoya Castle.

No matter whether there is a cliff or a fort, at least the reputation has been spread.

In the future, there may be people who come here to join Gaoya Castle because of its reputation, but even if they come, they may find that it is different from what they have heard.

But since I'm already here, I probably won't just leave.

Merchants in the previous life were well aware of this. They would sell a broken stone that looked like glass for tens of thousands of dollars if they attached a label representing eternal love.

They could have just robbed you, but instead they gave you a broken stone.

"Tina, how long do you think it will take for this group of wilderness coalition forces to organize and reach High Cliff Castle?"

"My lord, my name is Beristina." Beristina weakly reminded a certain lord.

"Okay, Tina." Levi nodded to show that he understood.

He has never been interested in these long and ugly names. As a pure Chinese in his previous life, he could not remember these Western names at all.

Therefore, it was simplified arbitrarily.

Seeing that she could not change the lord's mind, Beristina sighed imperceptibly, then thought seriously before answering.

"It won't be quick. These natives in the wilderness have always been the type who only take advantage and never suffer any loss. It will take more than ten days just to figure out who will lead this coalition army."

"They are indeed a makeshift group, not even as good as bandits. However, High Cliff Castle will not let down its guard just because we underestimate the enemy. Since we know they are coming, we will make Hogg and his men work harder starting tomorrow. We will divide them into two groups and patrol the north day and night."

Levi wiped his mouth and said.

It was not until this moment that the role of the Gnoll scouts was revealed. With their mounts, they could fully control everything that happened within more than 50 miles of High Cliff Castle.

Even their naturally sensitive noses, with a favorable wind, can allow them to detect the enemy's tracks from ten miles away and provide Gaoyabao with timely intelligence.

Control the enemy's actions within fifty miles to give Gaoya Fort sufficient time to prepare.

You can also keep track of their whereabouts at all times.

If the two-legged barbarians act as scouts or patrols, the distance they can control is only five miles.

In other words, the barbarians would probably have to wait until the main force arrived at the city before they could discover it.

Since ancient times, large-scale wars have been fought based on information asymmetry, so Levi attaches great importance to the werewolf scout cavalry who collect intelligence.

For this reason, when there is time, I will often teach Hogg this knowledge.

……

"Hahaha……"

Levi thought of something and suddenly laughed three times with his head raised.

Zat was choked by his boss' sudden outburst, and he rolled his eyes. Finally, he drank a big gulp of water before he recovered.

Beristina was also startled and asked weakly:
"Why are you laughing, sir?" "I am laughing at that..."

Realizing that something had changed, Levi coughed twice and changed the subject.

"Ahem, to be honest, I was worried that they were too scattered and it would be too troublesome to deal with them one by one, but I didn't expect them to dare to gather together. It's just right to catch them all in one fell swoop!"

Levi opened his palm and then clenched it, feeling very proud.

"By the way, Tina, are these the only ten or so warriors you have?"

Levi asked.

The remnants of Fed have lived in the Cass Mountains for so many years, and Levi doesn't believe that there are only so few people left now.

"Because too many people slow down the process, we will go ahead. There are still 70 or so soldiers following us. We will probably arrive tomorrow."

"What about your women and children? It's impossible that you only have soldiers left?"

Levi continued to ask.

He was eager to know how many people there were in Bairistina's group of Fede survivors.

If he could make tens of thousands, he would make a fortune.

"Them?" Beristina blinked, her sapphire eyes looking so pure and innocent. "Because there are too many people, and they have to drive the livestock and migrate the supplies, so the speed is very slow. It will probably take several days to arrive."

Levi looked at this innocent face like a little girl and understood everything instantly. This girl was hedging risks.

If he did not accept this group of Feder remnants, even if a conflict broke out between the two sides, they were basically warriors and would not suffer much loss even if they ran away.

In addition, the Wilderness Alliance is about to attack. If he can successfully defeat them, the remnants of Fed will naturally join High Cliff Castle.

If the Wilderness Alliance defeated him, Beristina and her men would at most lose a few warriors and could then move on to the next one.

I didn't expect it, I didn't expect it, this little girl who looked young and honest, was actually as cunning and shrewd as him.

Who is dumber than who these days?
If you accidentally trust appearance, you will suffer a great loss.

"Okay, remember to inform each other when the time comes to avoid any misunderstandings." Levi couldn't blame them for this little thought.

After all, they brought nearly a hundred soldiers to fight for him and resist the Wilderness Alliance.

If someone really just pays lip service to him, plays a double game, and only places a bet after he succeeds, he won't tolerate that.

The talks ended perfectly, both sides were very satisfied with the conversation, and Beristina and her friends successfully settled down temporarily in Highcliff Castle.

Fortunately, Levi had long anticipated that the population of High Cliff Castle would increase in the future, so he built many extra wooden houses.

Although the appearance of these wooden houses is hard to describe, they are still suitable for living.

In response, Beristina said that there were carpenters in their tribe who were proficient in construction and could take charge of the construction. This surprised Levi a little.

It is true that Gaoyabao is in need of these talents right now.

Levi, who was in a very good mood, couldn't help but open the team and check on Bairistina's situation.

What he didn't expect was that Beristina was actually a hero unit. Even Leah was not one.

However, there is really no comparison between the two. Beristina is the chieftain of a tribe at such a young age, and judging from the performance of the survivors of Fed, her prestige is extremely high.

It is conceivable that this cannot be done without some special talent.

The only thing worth mentioning about Leah is that she is the granddaughter of a grand duke with inheritance rights, and that she is a little smarter.

It seems that all daughters of nobility have the other talents.
