After laughing, the three people sat together, Ryan continued the previous topic, and he asked Flanner: "I always have a question."

"Haha, Ryan." Flanner said with a smile: "You just asked us not to be too polite, then you have to take the lead in complying."

Ryan also laughed. He asked Flanner, "Flanner, you have been in Freedom Paradise for many years. You must be very familiar with the history here? I also know many stories about Freedom Paradise, but I always have one Doubtless, in the long war of a hundred years of catastrophe, this place was miraculously unscathed. There are several powerful empires, and those kings who can thrive by one word, why didn’t they send troops to occupy this place?"

"Flanner, look." Ryan pointed to the street where people came and went outside the window and said: "Freedom heaven merchants gather and have accumulated a lot of wealth over the years. Are those kings unmoved? There is no thickness here. Without a wide moat, and without a large number of guards, it’s just an undefended city!"

"The Hundred Years’ War lasted for more than one hundred years, precisely because the empires are evenly matched, and no one can do anything about it, but if a king takes over here, he will immediately have a free heaven to accumulate. Doesn’t that mean that we will have an overwhelming advantage in future wars?"

Ryan said all the questions in his heart in one breath, he looked at Flanner blankly, hoping that he could give himself an answer.

Franner picked up the wine that Ryan had poured himself and took a sip slowly, letting the deliciousness of the wine linger between the tip of his tongue and throat, and the room that was still lively just now became quiet, only the window came out. Faint cries.

"Actually," Flanner, who was silent for a moment, put down his wine glass and suddenly said: "In the history of Freedom Paradise, there was once a war."

"Oh?" Ryan and Allendo didn’t know anything about this. They immediately became interested. They looked at Flanner together and listened quietly to Flanner’s remarks. history.

"Back then, in the Hundred Years of Catastrophe, as you said, there were several powerful empires evenly matched, and their kings were always thinking about defeating their opponents and expanding their territory. The position of the free paradise is very good. He is not within the absolute sphere of influence of the suzerain state like the vassal states of these empires, but between the spheres of influence of several empires. This is also the fundamental reason why the free heaven will be permanently neutral."

"No matter which country it prefers, Liberty Paradise will be involved in that endless war. Even if the chosen force wins the final victory, a group of merchants without a strong army will never It may contend with an empire. After declaring permanent neutrality, the merchants of Freedom Paradise can do business in every empire, regardless of whether they are hostile or not. The more hostile countries, Freedom Paradise Business people can get higher profits."

"The resources of any country cannot be perfect. Normal trade is necessary. However, the perennial war has caused the lack of communication between the two hostile countries, resulting in a shortage of resources. This situation is cheaper for us. Daring ancestors. On one side are wars, and on the other, there is a long line of carriages. As long as you hire a sufficient number of mercenaries and transport the goods safely, you can get ten times and one hundred times benefits."

"Those decades were the golden time for the development of Freedom Paradise. As a result, countless merchants had innumerable wealth. This naturally attracted the attention of the greedy monarchs. They did not personally send troops to attack Freedom Paradise. They don’t want to, but they don’t want to cause unnecessary trouble. If they don’t handle it well and let the free paradise fall to their opponents, it’s not a good thing."

"Finally, a king called the Gorse Empire, unable to withstand the huge temptation, decided to occupy this place by force and plunder the wealth here. Of course, the king of the Gorse Empire is not a fool, he did not directly send The army, for the sake of safety, he secretly instructed a principality belonging to him to send troops.".Mobile phone

"The gorse empire has three principalities closely attached to it. The principality that sent troops is called the Principality of Gris, which is about three days away from the free paradise. In the calculation of the king of the gorse empire, Grid The Principality of Rees will send 30,000 troops. He expects that these 30,000 will end the battle in five days. In just five days, even if other empires want to intervene, there is not much time to prepare.

"So, the Duke of Gris sent a general and three infantry regiments, totaling 30,000 people. 30,000 people attacked a seemingly undefended city. There should be no problem, right?"

Speaking of this, Flanner paused deliberately to make Ryan and Allen very dissatisfied with the interesting story, and shouted in unison: "Say, say it, don't stop!"

Flanner laughed at himself, and stopped abruptly at the key point, allowing his anxious opponents to rush to bid for the following content, which can make more profits. This is a very useful business method. He has been in business for many years, and these things have already penetrated his bones, so he used them unconsciously.

Flanner couldn’t help being funny. It seems that he was too involved in business in the past: "Look, even in front of friends, I didn’t consciously use these methods. No wonder no one was in trouble when I was in trouble. I really don’t blame others for helping myself sincerely."

These thoughts flashed across Flanner’s head. He picked up the wine glass and drank a sip of wine to cover up the business method he had just subconsciously used, then cleared his throat and continued: "Ge The night after the Principality of Rees sent troops, Liberty Paradise received accurate news."

"The next day, so soon?" Ryan thought it was a little weird, and interjected: "How did this happen?"

Ellendo patted Ryan on the shoulder and said, "Don't talk, listen to Flanner." It seems that the druid, who has always been indifferent, can't bear to listen to the story.

"Yes, as a businessman, you can get information faster than others, but it's a compulsory course." Flanner explained: "There are many ways to send messages quickly. For example, to send messages quickly. Letter, changing horses on the way without changing people, this method is mainly used on the northern prairie, after all, there are many horses there, and the terrain is also convenient for horses to run. There is also a well-trained bird to make these birds familiar with the distance between the two places. It’s a lot faster to pass letters through them, but the content of the letters can’t be too detailed, and it’s easy to lose them on the way. The easiest and most expensive is to use magic to pass them. As for what it looks like, I guess You know better than me."

"Well..." Ryan scratched his head. He really didn't know the magic in this area, but how could it be easier to pass a letter than to pass a person? When you return to the imperial capital, you must consult Victor's master, he can even make the time-space scroll that conveys people, this little thing is naturally no longer a problem.

After Flanner finished the explanation, he continued: "The merchants of Freedom Paradise, in the face of the sudden disaster, are united as never before. In just a few hours, a temporary business alliance was established. This business alliance is solely responsible for responding to this crisis. Then, a huge number of gold coins were gathered together and became the activity funds of this business alliance."

"The first order of the business alliance was to hire mercenaries. After paying three times more than usual, a large number of mercenaries were hired by the business alliance. Once this news spreads, there will be more Mercenaries desperately rush to the free paradise. Anyway, these mercenaries usually take a lot of risks, and often fight on the death line. For example, hunting and killing monsters, a large number of magic cores, furs, etc. are traded every year. , But many mercenaries died under the fangs and claws of Warcraft."

"The high gold coins form the resistance army of Freedom Paradise. These mercenaries who are usually born and die together have a tacit cooperation than ordinary soldiers. They have experienced life and death and have rich combat experience. Indeed, these mercenaries are here. Frontal combat cannot compete with the regular army, but they also have their own strengths, such as using the forests, rivers, houses and other favorable terrain along the way to harass and obstruct them."

"Next, the Business Alliance urgently selected more than a dozen merchants who are good at hoarding supplies. These merchants separately took a sum of money and quietly sneaked into the capital of the Principality of Gris, Bihuo City, with their own men. Their task is very simple. They use various means to rush to buy all the strategic materials, such as food, of the Principality of Gris at several times the price."

"The road to Freedom Paradise was destroyed by mercenaries and the water source was poisoned. When those residents evacuated, they took away everything that could be taken away, and those things that could not be taken away, They were all burned. The army of the Principality of Gris received fierce resistance on the way forward. The closer to the Freedom Paradise, the more prosperous along the way. The houses built next to each other are denser. The army of the Principality of Gris must seize the time to attack the Freedom Paradise. Otherwise, other empires are likely to interfere, so they don’t have enough time to forcibly search all the houses along the way. The mercenaries hide in those empty houses and do everything possible to harvest the lives of the soldiers of Gris’s army."

"The companions who ate together yesterday, maybe the next moment they will be killed by the feather arrows shot from the house, which has taken a lot of their morale, so they can only raise their shields anytime and anywhere. , Or praying for God’s blessing. When Gris’s army walked for four full days before they came to the periphery of Freedom Paradise, it was almost where I met you. After all, it has changed a lot for many years."
