Almighty Lord: I can modify hidden entries

From his memory, Gudern vaguely remembered that when he came to Qingyuan Town, several surrounding lords sent people to celebrate, and among them, the Charleson family was personally visited by Gejir himself.

Moreover, the other party was sending gifts and asking for help, which made my predecessor a little uncomfortable at first.

After a brief contact, Charlieson probably realized that his predecessor was not very smart, so he began to use various means to infiltrate Qingyuan Town to keep a close eye on him.

The former guard captain Reg, various 'pest' informants in the town, etc. are all proof. At the same time, the other party also tried to bribe old Joseph, but he refused to fight and failed.

The role of various insiders is to prevent him from 'accidentally' finding evidence that Baron Sesit may have left behind and hidden.

Even if the evidence is found, with many insiders interspersed with reports, Gudern only wants to report this evidence, then the second 'genocide' incident of Lord Qingyuan will probably be hotly discussed in the surrounding area again.

But fortunately, my predecessor was 'stupid' enough. After three years of eating, drinking and having fun, I was picked off by the other party, so I was able to survive this period.

Until the time came for him to travel through time, the Charleson family should have completed preparations to provide food and weapons for the orcs.

And they need a place to provide a springboard for the Orc Empire's army to invade. Invading from their territory is definitely not possible. After all, if the Orc invasion fails, the Empire will have to find trouble for them.

Therefore, he fell in love with this unlucky guy, a useless lord who wouldn't have much reaction even if he died.

And it can also bring a long period of lord vacuum period to Qingyuan Snow Ridge, so as to prepare for the invasion of the Orc Empire.

Unfortunately, with his appearance, the Charleson family's plan was disrupted, and they began to desperately want to kill him or drive him away from Qingyuan Town.

Gudern also roughly told Old Joseph the results of his guesses, but of course skipped over the incident where he traveled through time.

And I suspect that the tax evasion thing is definitely true, but it's not us but the Charleson family.

To prepare food, weapons and equipment for ten thousand people, the resources required are astronomical. Where can the border territory of the Charlieson family get so many resources to supplement it?

The only explanation is that the other party has had extremely serious shortfalls in the past few years and has misappropriated taxes to make up for it. In order to avoid accidents, it has put this tax evasion issue on our heads.

Old Joseph nodded slightly at Gudern's words.

Master, your analysis may be very close to the truth, but what are your plans next?

The border war is about to start, and you have been involved in this kind of incident again. According to the time, Qingyuan Town will probably be involved in the war soon...

Are you trying to persuade me to leave Qingyuan Town to avoid the crisis of war?

Regarding Old Joseph's words, Gudern just asked lightly.

At this moment, Old Joseph remained silent, acquiescing to this meaning.

The war hasn't started yet. As a lord, I abandon my subjects and flee. Can the imperial arbitration make me live a comfortable life?

And even if I leave Qingyuan Town in advance, where should I take refuge? The entire northern territory will inevitably fall into war and return to the royal capital?

The family has cut off financial support. I'm afraid I won't be able to get home even if I want to go home.

Gudern saw the current situation very clearly and explained everything to Old Joseph.

And this war is not meant to break out immediately. Judging from the current situation, the war will probably break out in early spring next year.

It's the autumn harvest season. If the orc army doesn't want to start a war at this time, the weather alone will bring them down.

Calculating the time carefully, it will be three or four months before the war actually breaks out. With this time, Qingyuan Town will already have the strength to deal with this crisis.

When the war broke out, Gudern was not panicked at all, according to modern historical knowledge.

As long as the generals of the Orc Empire have a little bit of wisdom, it is impossible to put the start of the war at the end of autumn and the beginning of winter.

Winters in the north are harsh and severe, with heavy snowfall all year round, especially on the side near the Yongshuang Mountains.

In winter, every town rarely visits each other. They all stay at home and warm up by the fire to spend this cold winter.

Even though the orcs, who have lived in extremely cold places for a long time, have adapted to the troubles caused by wind and snow, it is still very difficult to start a war in this situation.

If the other party really did that, Gudern wouldn't mind having an alien version of the 'Moscow Defense Battle'.

Within two months, he was confident enough to complete the construction of the Qingyuan Town wall.

And if the construction of firearms has not yet been mentioned, he will also turn his focus to the development of equipment for mass production of arrows and crossbows, so as to ensure the ability to defend.

I'm sorry, Master... I was rude, and my brain is a little sluggish after drinking...

Gooden's explanation made Joseph Sr. realize the consequences of doing so.

As the lord of the empire, it is necessary to defend one's own territory. To escape alone during such a war, it is possible to deprive the lord and title of his title, or even to hang him on the street.

It's okay, but you also reminded me that I need to prepare for the fallback.

I'm not a fool. If the situation is really dangerous, I will definitely run away, but not now.

Yeah. Old Joseph nodded heavily.

With the young master's personal admission, Old Joseph felt slightly relieved.

He was afraid that the young master would come up to him and defend Qingyuan Town, which would be the end of him.

Although now that the young master has awakened, the strength he has shown and the fantastic ideas given by all kinds of knowledge are really amazing.

But the development time is too short. If there is one or two years of development, he does not have to worry about this situation.

Old Joseph, what do you think of Renas? Is he trustworthy?

Hearing the young master mention Renas, old Joseph understood the meaning of these words even if his brain was slow.

Master, do you want to use him to submit evidence?

Yes. Gudern nodded and continued: What I worried about before has indeed happened, but now it seems that the people within the Governor's Mansion are not united and have their own factions.

And Renus doesn't look like he's on Charleson's side, otherwise this noble title medal wouldn't have been issued to me so easily.

This line is indeed okay, but... Old Joseph pondered for a moment and expressed his concerns.

There must be helpers from the Charleson family in the Governor's Mansion. If Renas goes back to hand over this evidence, I'm afraid he will also encounter considerable resistance.

In addition, we don't know who is strong and who is weak among the factions in the Governor's Mansion. If Renas's faction is tough, this evidence will definitely have a big impact.

But if Renas's faction is weak and he wants to be promoted, he will throw this evidence to the hostile faction close to Charleson as an entry gift...

Without understanding the ideology of the other world, if this possibility comes from the mouth of old Joseph, it is really possible.

For a moment, Gudern was also a little worried. This thing was really a hot potato.

I originally thought that the Charleson family was just a powerful and ambitious family, but I didn't expect that there seemed to be people from the Governor's Mansion backing them up.

Gooden doesn't dare to bet on this kind of unresolved matter now. If the other party really wants to kill everything, it will not be a good thing for him.

He also knew that it was easy to dodge an open attack but hard to guard against a hidden attack. After pondering for a while, Gooden looked up at Old Joseph.

I want to try this line of Renas tomorrow. I'll first reveal a little bit about the orc scout's possible relationship with Charlieson and see how he reacts.

If there is no problem, I will hand over the account books and recordings to him and take them to the Governor's Mansion to try. Even if it fails, the upper management of the empire should be alert.

In addition, let Walter, who imitates handwriting, come and copy a copy of the account book overnight. If the other party responds incorrectly tomorrow, give him the copy.

Yes. Old Joseph nodded, got up and went to make arrangements.

With Old Joseph leaving, Gudern released his spiritual power and enveloped the entire castle in search of Els.

Naturally, the spread of mental power at the initial level is not that wide, but with the double blessing of the magically modified mithril staff and the Lord of Elements, the extent of mental expansion can barely cover the entire castle.

Come to the study quickly, I have a mission.

After finding Els who was patrolling the vigil, Gudern heard a magical sound coming to his ears.

Upon hearing the summons, Els's expression did not change, he looked at the patrolling personnel and gave instructions.

You continue to patrol and pay attention to fire and theft prevention. The young master values ​​this batch of supplies very much.

Yes! Captain!

After arranging the task, Els hurried to the study and obeyed Gudern's order.

Now there is an important task that you need to take charge of personally. Later you go to the barracks and find two more capable people and quietly leave the Qingyuan Ridge overnight.

Be prepared for an ambush on the only way to Jinyuan City. If you see Renas alone or with only guards, intercept and kill him directly. No one is allowed to survive.

Yes, Master.

Regarding the young master's order, Els directly accepted it without asking why.

For such subordinates, Gudern nodded, took out his magic rifle from under the table and handed it to Els.

This is my weapon. Use this first during the interception. The attack and aiming methods are the same as the crossbows you trained with. Aim at three points and one line, and pull the trigger to launch.

You have a total of three attack opportunities. You don't need to deliberately aim when using it. You only need to visually see the part you want to hit.

The magic rifle was adjusted and upgraded during this period. Gudern added a trigger and a sight, and fixed the three magic charges so that the magic would not dissipate over time.

When Els saw the young master handing him his weapon, his eyes were full of surprise, but then he took it solemnly.

I promise you that the mission will be completed successfully!

Yes. Gudern nodded and continued to add: If Renas and Feroz are together, this interception mission will be terminated.

After the details were given, Ayres resigned and immediately went to select personnel to carry out the task.

Gudern also just made the plan to intercept Renas.

Tomorrow's test, if there is anything unusual about the other party, Gudern will find an excuse to keep Feroz and let him return to Jinyuan City alone or with a cavalry escort.

Els, who is on the road at that time, will lead people to intercept and kill to ensure that the news will not leak out, so as to temporarily ensure the development for a period of time.

Regarding his own safety, Gudern would not have any concern for him to return and cause trouble for himself.

He would not feel any discomfort in giving such an order.

After a while, Walter, who was imitating handwriting, also came to the study to take the samples he needed to copy.

As for the copying location, it was in the public hall on the first floor of the castle, not in the young master's study.

After the night banquet, Eileen finished her work and brought a pot of hot tea to Gudern in the study.

Although she had never tasted the liquor at the dinner party, she could tell how strong it was by looking at the guests who drank it one after another.

Looking at the young master who was blowing the autumn wind by the study window, Irene said softly.

Master, let's drink some hot tea to relieve the pressure.

Looking at Eileen who came to deliver tea, Gooden rubbed his cheeks that were a little cold from the wind, then closed the window, took the hot tea and drank it in one gulp.

Naturally, he was not as vigorous as Kroger in terms of drinking capacity. He probably couldn't hold it anymore after drinking about two ounces.

If he hadn't been using magic to wake up, I'm afraid he would have fallen asleep in bed.

After finishing the glass, Gudern did not wait for Eileen to refill it for him, but directly started it himself.
