Ante hugged the blanket and sat on the cushioned floor. The boy refused to sleep stubbornly, but his eyelids seed to want to stick together like a thousand kilograms. Ellen shook his head and smiled, "You're clearly sleepy, but you're still trying to stay awake. Tell , what do you want to do?"
"Where's Belmord?" Ante didn't answer.
Alan bent his finger and flicked it on his forehead, causing Antwerp to grin in pain and drowsiness to bounce away more than half of it. Alan smiled and said, "Guess what?"
"What's the benefit of guessing correctly?" Ante asked as he covered his head with both hands.
"If you want candy, I'll give you one."
"I don't want to eat candy. I'm not a child anymore." '"I want you to tell all the plans, pull out and don't tell anything, what do you think I am?" Ante said angrily.
"Little brat." Ellen chuckled, "Do you think you're a girl?"
Seeing that Ante was about to jump up and bite, Alan stretched his waist and said, "Well, that's right. I'll tell you sothing and see if you have the qualifications to do so."
"It's a deal?"
"Have you ever reneged on what I said?"
Ante didn't think about it. The boy used his brain and looked out of the tent. "Kill? Don't tell , now that the bandits are all in your hands, who else is there to kill? Belmord is your best assassin, assassin, and naturally includes spying work. But what information is there in this caravan worth spying on?"
"I don't think so." Even though Allen had said that, his recognition of Ont had risen by one or two points in his heart. The boy hadn't guessed what Belmord's job was yet, but his deduction was well-founded. It seed that this little fellow wasn't just enjoying happiness after becoming a lord, he still had so hard work to do. According to Edward, he still practiced swordsmanship? Interesting. Do you want to guard the territory or seek revenge?
Maybe both.
Suddenly, Ante clapped his hands and said, "I see. Belmord is going to spy on Qianniao, right? Did you just say that you casually set up an optional trap for the rcenary group of Qianniao to leave Belmord behind for the sake of monitoring the results?"
When Alan returned to camp earlier, the boy asked about the situation outside the camp. He casually said sothing. Unexpectedly, Ante guessed correctly in this respect. Just as he was about to praise his intuition, Ante frowned again, "But what trap did you set for Thousand Birds that was worth using Belmord to monitor the results?" You're going to Mountain City this ti. Needless to say, this set is definitely prepared for Rackett. The only connection between Rackett and Thousand Birds was probably the army that had disguised itself as a bandit just now. "Wait, if this army suddenly disappears, Rackett will definitely be furious."
"If I were the count, I would look into it thoroughly. After all, this was sothing that could not be seen. If soone discovered it, it would be appropriate to kill it as soon as possible. "This trap is for Thousand Birds, but it's for Rackett. That's why he intends to use this army as an article " Anter looked up at Allen. "You intend to use Thousand Birds to expose Earl Rackett's evil deeds in the guise of an army?"
Alan answered, and applause ca from outside the tent. '"Look, we can't underestimate our Viscount Ante," Belmord smiled at Ellen.
Ellen spread out his hands and said, "Now that you've guessed correctly, there's no need for to tell you anything, right?"
Ante snorted, trying to pretend to be experienced. But he was still a child, and the corner of his mouth couldn't help but raise. "I only guessed roughly, but I couldn't guess the details," he said. "For example, how did you get Qianniao to be suspicious, and how did you get them to spread the news on your behalf? If you let Rackett know, there's no need for this rcenary group to go back."
"It's not difficult. It's just a matter of ti. As long as Qianniao gets the news out before Rackett finds out the truth, Rackett won't dare to touch them. Because if he does, he won't confess." Alan smiled and said, "I was just worried that Thousand Birds would be able to figure this out. I was even more worried that their intelligence would be mistaken by their intelligence, so I asked Belmord to keep an eye on them. What do you think, are there any results?"
Belmord sat down, playing with a short blade. The short blade was less than three inches long, hiltless, and small, but under the traction of his Origin Energy, it moved flexibly between his fingers. The man smiled and said, "They only thought that if Rackett found out about this, he would kill them. The Mountain City logo I purposely placed on the leader was discovered by Darang. Guess how our Mr. Darang handled this?"
Alan looked at Ont as if he was going to test him, full of provocation.
The teenager's blood boiled and his head opened. He bit his finger and said, "That Darang guy is selfish and conceited. He was trying to incite the businessman to force us to submit." What kind of good idea can such a person co up with? Since he is afraid of death, then the only choice left is to give us up. "That's right, Belmord killed the bandits. That guy must have wanted to notify Rackett in advance, hoping to get credit and avoid a calamity!"
"Almost there." Alan nodded and said, "So you see, being a lord isn't that difficult. You just need to use your brain." Ante, your deduction is quite good. If you guessed that Belmord's work was based on intuition, then this ti, it is an understanding of people and the world. In order to manage a territory well, it was necessary to understand the people and the situation of the world. Pushing a boat along the river, then the managent of the territory would not be so difficult, and the lives of the citizens would be smooth. As long as you are not too ambitious, the people in the territory will be able to live very well. "
Alan took this opportunity to instil so of his own experience into Ont, and he pointed it out in a simple way until it ca to an end. No matter what, he had to personally experience it. Outsiders said that a thousand or ten thousand would only be able to hear one-tenth or two of them in their minds, and in the end, it would only be used for a very small amount of ti.
As Ante thought about what Alan said, Alan looked at Belmord, who nodded. "As Sir Ante said, Darang had brought this disaster on us. But Commander Walch was quite straightforward and refused. He said he would do sothing else. But I think the old Commander's heart is straight and his head is probably square. I'm afraid he can't think of any good ideas."
Alan laughed, "If Walker dares to use Darang's thod, then Thousand Birds really won't have to go back." There was an undetectable chill in his laughter, and Alan kicked Ante beside him.
The latter glared at him angrily, obviously annoyed that this fellow had disrupted his deep thinking. Alan pretended not to see it and asked with a smile, "You go and play with Ferlyn tomorrow."
Ante rolled his eyes at him and said, "Fei Lin doesn't have the heart or the heart to play with , does she?"
'"If you're not in the mood, then you can naturally borrow Miss Ferlyn's words and let him know. I promise, Ferlyn will definitely have to hug you happily and kiss you a few tis. Maybe she'll marry you. I think that girl is pretty good. Although her temper is a little off-line, her temper is sunny. With her, you probably won't be able to smile every day." Ellen obviously strayed from the point, "It's just that I'm a little older than you."
Ante finally fell asleep.
A mont later, the boy's long breathing sounded. Belmord looked at Ante and said, "Young Master, this trip to Mountain City is not a joke. Why did you bring this little drag bottle?"
"There are many reasons." Alan counted on his fingers. "Edward said the boy was still thinking about revenge, so I'll take him with and let him see the difference between and him. Thinking better of it, I can put an end to his thoughts of revenge. In the future, being a good lord is better than dying at my hands. At worst, he still doesn't want to give up. At the very least, if he knows the difference between us, he will probably chase after him. But whether he can catch up is still a problem. In the end, I hope that he will retreat despite the difficulties. "
Ellen shrugged his shoulders. "Anyway, I don't think I can do that. If that's the case, I'll have to plow the land back and forth three or four tis before it can be considered clean. But then, we won't be useful anymore, right? Besides, I want this kid to know more and not ruin a good viscount."
"Does he understand what you're doing?"
"Heavens knows, this kind of thing originally depended on his own efforts." Ellen yawned, "Go to bed, it's getting late. I guess we'll have to walk all day tomorrow. Scared tonight, Qianniao will probably be in a hurry to get there."
The next day, as Ellen had said, after discussing with the caravan leaders, Walker decided to work harder today to get to Mountain City as soon as possible. The caravan set out in the morning and did not rest in a small forest until two o'clock in the afternoon. While the caravan was resting, Walker did not stay idle. He called in a few people from the caravan that could be said to be capable of discussing how to resolve this potential crisis.
Ferlyn went into the forest alone and sat down in a low tree. Unexpectedly, when she sat down, a figure slid down the tree trunk, startling her. It looked like it was Ante, or else she would have stabbed at him with her sword.
"Why are you hiding in a tree?" Ferlyn looked at the canopy. The short tree had fallen all its leaves. Its bare branches were covered in snow, and strands of snow powder would shake off from ti to ti.
Ante scratched his head and said, "I saw you coming and wanted to hide in a tree to scare you. I didn't expect it to be covered in snow, and it slipped down before I could hide it." As he spoke, he couldn't help but curse Alan. Who was this excuse to fool?
Unexpectedly, Fei Lin laughed out loud, but Xuan Xuan's expression was gloomy. Ante sighed in his heart. As Alan had expected, this girl was worried about what had happened last night. "What's wrong with you?" Allen asked.
"Nothing, you don't understand even if I said it." Ferlyn forced a smile.
Ante snorted and said, "Underestimating people."
Ferlyn shook her head. "It's not that she underestimated you, but this ti, we're probably all going to suffer."
"Why?"
Ferlyn said, "Let tell you, the bandit who attacked us last night was probably from the army of Mountain City. You can't tell anyone else!"
