Chapter 20 - Prepare in Advance!

"Marko, you have experience in the battlefield. If a group of people attacked my territory from the sea, how should I defend?"

Ellen is now on a horse and Marco patrolling the territory of Rose Town.

Today's Rose Town has a brand new look. With brand new houses and flat and spacious stone roads, the old dilapidated town has completely disappeared.

The town of Roses also no longer planted the land entirely with roses, but instead sowed most of the good land with the crop seeds that Alan gave them.

At the same time, in order to ensure the food and clothing of the townspeople.

Before Allen also asked Sparrow to go out to buy some food and clothes for the townspeople.

Of course, these are not free, but what Allen invested in the townspeople in advance.

After all, Allen is not a bad person. Although he is willing to improve the quality of life of the townspeople, he is not willing to show too much kindness.

After all, once the townspeople think they are a bad guy, then maybe these townspeople will become lazy.

In short, with Allen's efforts, the entire Rose Town has been completely reborn, and everyone can eat and drink, put on new clothes, and work hard to cultivate crops for the lord.

All this, Marko saw, which made him more and more sure that he was following a great lord and a powerful knight.

"Why do you ask such a question? Although some places in the Principality near the sea have been harassed by some pirates in recent years, Rose Town is not among the targets of those pirates."

Marco said respectfully.

"Oh? Marco, you're talking about the former Rose Town."

Allen reminded: "You have to know that my territory is completely different now!"

Marco was stunned when he heard the words, and then he pondered slightly.

"My lord is right, but I was negligent."

Marko immediately began to set his sights on the beach not far away.

Rose Town is surrounded by three mountains, two-thirds of which are surrounded by mountains.

Three big mountains surround Rose Town in the middle, leaving only one beach, which is not particularly large, in contact with the sea.

"My lord, our geographical location is good, and the contact area with the ocean is small. We only need to build some defense facilities at a location 500 meters away from the coast. With the terrain, we can easily place a team of 100 people."

Marko said quickly: "If we can arrange the trap in advance and arrange the manpower, we may be able to defend against more enemies."

"Yes, it's similar to what I think. Now we have twenty elite warriors and fifty newly trained warriors."

Allen looked at the sea level in the distance calmly: "You can build some arrow towers on the two surrounding mountains, and also build two arrow towers near the beach."

"With the mountain as a cover, the pirate ship will not be able to find the existence of the arrow tower unless it gets close. Once it gets close, it has already entered our range."

"At the same time, some fortifications need to be built here…"

Allen also expressed his thoughts.

Marco was shocked. He didn't think about it that much at all. In contrast, Allen was more like a veteran who was on the battlefield.

Allen has a very cunning vision for fighting and arranging fortifications.

It's incredible!

Marco's respect for Alan grew stronger in his heart.

"Okay, let's talk about it today. From tomorrow, you will start building fortifications with people. As for the arrow tower, don't be in a hurry. After all, our people can hide on those two hillsides and shoot arrows at the enemy."

Allen said in a calm tone.

"Yes, my lord!"

Marko nodded to indicate that he knew, and at the same time he was a little curious: "Sir, do you really think that someone else is attacking Rose Town?"

Alan smiled, and his smile was very bright and dazzling in the sun.

"Marco, we are on the border of the principality, we must not be careless. Once we relax, then we will be destroyed!"

"And if we prepare everything in advance, then once those stupid and ignorant pirates dare to come, we just need to deal with it easily and throw them all into the sea to feed the fish."

Allen's words silenced Marko for a moment.

"Sir, you are right. As a knight, you must always remind yourself not to let your guard down!"

"But my lord, we don't have bows and arrows, and we haven't trained archers."

Allen smiled when he heard the words: "Buy without bows and arrows, and train archers without archers. Is the problem that can be solved with money a problem?"

Soon the two walked around the town again, and then rode back to the castle.

After sending Marco away, Allen found Sparrow, the financial officer, and he was the right person to ask about the gold coins.

Aaron asked Sparrow to immediately take twenty warriors to Aron's territory to buy seventy longbows and a large number of arrows.

After everything was arranged, Allen was completely relieved.

Now just wait for the pirates to hit in two weeks, and Alan promises a big surprise for these guys!

As for the traitor issue, they will naturally tell themselves when the time comes to defeat the group of pirates.
