Chapter 139 Dusk is like blood
The death of incense has promoted the unity between cities, which can be said to have aroused human nature. Goodness is still the dominance, but to awaken this dominance in the hearts of the people. The price paid is too high. If it hadn't been for the war, Shuiyue would have visited this woman in person, but the words came again. Memory, if it hadn't been for now, the city owner would not have revealed it!
Everyone fell into a moment of meditation, and the next thing they had to do was to count the number of people in the mountain city while it was raining outside.
He called the statistics department of the mountain city in the rain. He was a very short old man. When he came to the city lord's mansion, he looked very restrained.
The city owner introduced: "The Mountain City Statistics Department counts the number and materials in daily work. This person is the leader of the Mountain City Statistics Department. Because this job is very simple, it is just a process. For this reason, the number of people in the Statistics Department is only more than a dozen, and this old man has been following the city owner for three terms and has been counting. Work conscientiously!"
Shuiyue was speechless and quickly understood the current staffing of the mountain city!
The old man looks very old and really has a different temperament from others, which has nothing to do with his height, and his ability is not proportional to this. The old man clearly tells the staffing of the mountain city, which makes Shuiyue sound very headache!
The total population of the mountain city is only 30,000, which is different from what we usually see. Although the mountain city is not big, the streets are full of people, especially the bustling streets. People on it are no different from walking in crowded alleys. If you look at the flow of people alone, the mountain city can accommodate at least 200,000 people. Many, but one thing should be noted. The role of mountain city is that mountain city is a medicine capital. Most of them come here are outsiders seeking medical treatment and medicine, and they can't play any role in the war. Once they hear a few words of the war, the streets of mountain city will immediately become deserted, and the number of mountain city is only 30,000!
Then, there is a serious shortage of soldiers in the mountain city, with an upper limit of only 3,000. These people are unable to play a role in self-defense except for maintaining public security every day. Moreover, more than half of these 3,000 people are over 40 years old, which shows their combat effectiveness!
"Okay, I know!" Shuiyue waved her hand, but her heart was trembling. How to use such combat effectiveness really needs to be seriously considered.
The old man in the statistics department came and went in a hurry, and Shuiyue did not give him any task, because at present, the magic soldier has not taken any action.
Are the demons going to attack the mountain city?
Uncertain, the demon clan only sent messengers, and Shuiyue just carefully made corresponding arrangements, just in case, with the income of the city owner, the demon clan also has concerns about the eight-city contract!
It rained for a while, the sky turned clear, and raindrops were dripping under the eaves. In the hall, the charcoal fire burning into ashes emitted wisps of smoke. The night before the storm was always quiet, and the waves were only the hearts of the people.
The city owner came down from his chair and said, "Well, let's send people down the mountain to stare at the movements of the demon clan, and I will also go to other cities to tell them about the contract!"
The sooner this matter is done, the more beneficial it will be to her. Shuiyue does not forget to remind: "Let the cities prepare the war personnel. If the demon clan does not move, we will not move, and the demon clan will move, we must rush in front of them!"
This will neither make the cities fall into a pre-war tense state first, nor will they lose the preparation for war. It depends on the judgment of the cities, when the magic soldiers will come, and what is bluff!
The demon clan sent messengers, which is not so simple. Its role can be said to be a multiple birds with one stroke. First, with the help of the messenger to understand the situation of the mountain city, check the external defense of the mountain city, and the mental state of the internal personnel. This is very important for war. The second purpose is to give the mountain first. There is an ultimatum under the city, either making people or starting a war, so as to put the mountain city in a dilemma. The third demon clan plunged the mountain city into pre-war panic and dispersed the residents of other cities in the city!
Shuiyue accidentally brought the messenger of the demon clan to the teahouse. In this way, the news that the demon messenger came to the mountain city was strictly blocked in the teahouse. Its role is nothing more than to warn the mountain city, but it can't deter others!
The city owner smiled and said, "Your boy's mind is getting more and more meticulous. I understand this truth. I decided to leave it immediately, and the matter of the city is left to you young people!"
After saying that, the city owner ordered people to prepare horses and leave immediately. The rain outside had just stopped, and there was a meaning that it would rain again. Shuiyue couldn't help but be a little worried. This time, the city owner was afraid that there would be more than half a month!
"I'll leave the matter of the mountain city to you. Before I come back, Syl, you must help Shuiyue!"
The city owner didn't give a prosperous city to his son?
Under the horse, stepping on the stagnant water, Shuiyue said three times, "No, no, no, I'm afraid I don't have the ability to lead this city!"
"Shuiyue, if you don't have the ability to lead this city, if it were me, I would only bury this city more easily!" Syl laughed.
"Father, just go and leave it to us!"
There is a reason why the city owner must go by himself. This is a war, not a child's play. What's more, this war is not about the mountain city. Everything rises from the moon. Looking back, it is related to the fate of the whole human race!
With the whip, the city owner took several guards to step on the water. Shuiyue and others were sent to the bridge. Until they could not see the shadow of the city owner, Shuiyue said, "This matter cannot be publicized. The magic soldiers did not come, and everything in the mountain city is running as usual!"
Everyone agreed, but Syl asked slightly, "So, Shuiyue, you don't plan to live in the city lord's mansion?"
Shuiyue always remembers her origin and does not want to become the leader of the mountain city. "I'd better go back to my camp. You can live in the city master's mansion first. You can judge small things by yourself. When you come to my camp, I will give you advice!"
"*The owner of the city is you, not me!" Syl scratched his head and was helpless. "Well, I'll go back later and move the bed to your camp, and then tell the leaders of various departments that if you have something to do, just go to your camp to report it?"
"Hey, do you still think our camp is not crowded enough?" The meteor punched Syl in the back and said rudely.
It seems that the camp is also provided by Shancheng?
"I'm just kidding. Look at your stingy look!" Syl walked back with a smile, facing the sunset glow in the sky, which was as red as blood!
Looking at the gate, after the heavy rain, people are crowded here again, causing Shuiyue to think of the bastard Xili. Before the magic soldiers come, they still can't relax their pursuit of Xili.
Shuiyue turned her head and ordered the meteor to come: "You will continue your work tomorrow and pay close attention to the suspicious people on the street!"
Although the mountain city is facing war, everything must be done in a manner. If it is chaotic, it only shows that this leader is very poor!
"Okay, but I guess I won't appear openly on the street except for some scum!"
