Chapter 408 I’ll come back as soon as I go
The Restoration Army is getting closer and closer to the Magic King...
The war is approaching!
However, Elizabeth discovered that her husband Zhang Jingyi seemed to be not doing his job properly these days.
He ordered a bunch of very expensive projectors from somewhere, and then he spent all day cutting short videos on the computer. No one knew what he was doing.
Elizabeth really wanted to come and see what he was doing, but now she had to manage a huge territory, countless new nobles and commoners, and rebuild the political and economic systems of the kingdom. She was so busy that she really had no time to see what Zhang Jingyi was doing.
I had to try to ask him during dinner: "Husband, what have you been busy doing in front of the computer these days?"
Zhang Jingyi chuckled: "I'm solving a problem of 'conquering the enemy without fighting'."
Elizabeth: "To conquer the enemy without fighting?"
Zhang Jingyi: "The next place we are going to fight is the Magic Kingdom. That is the capital city. The capital city of every country has a large population and a large number of historical and cultural relics. No one wants a large-scale battle to happen in the capital city. Whether the city is destroyed or the civilians are killed, I don't want to see it."
This makes sense.
Elizabeth frowned when she heard this.
The Magic King would be beaten to pieces, and she would be embarrassed when she sits back on the throne.
No one wants to ascend the throne in ruins.
"How is my husband going to solve this?"
"Hey, don't worry, you will know when the time comes."
Zhang Jingyi sat back in front of the computer and continued to process his short video...

The Restoration Army continued to advance slowly towards the capital. One day, a huge city appeared in front of them. It was one of the largest cities in the Magic Kingdom and was called the Castle of Sadness.
It is said that a thousand years ago, the Brave Army and the Demon King's Army fought a bloody battle here. The Brave Army suffered heavy losses in the battle, with thousands of soldiers killed. After the victory, they built a huge monument here to commemorate those warriors who gave their lives to liberate Middle-earth.
The castle was therefore named the Sad Castle.
There are many residents here, as many as 50,000. Together with the surrounding towns and villages, the population even reaches 70,000.
As Antonio and Servius led their troops into the city, they discovered a horrible scene. The residents of the city were all pale and thin, looking haggard, as if they had not eaten for several days.
Upon seeing the Restoration Army, the residents stumbled over, knelt down, and cried loudly: "Your Majesty, your army is finally here... Woo woo woo... A few days ago, Ugumantai's army withdrew. Before they left, they robbed all the food in our homes and left us here to fend for ourselves."
When these words came out, Sevi was shocked: "Is Ugumantai crazy? He allowed his soldiers to plunder the civilians in a big city? If he does this, even if he defeats us in the future, he will completely lose the support of the people."
Antonio's face darkened: "He is plotting."
Sevi: "Use a trick?" Antonio: "Attack our military rations."
Sevi suddenly realized: "Ah? They want to force us to help these civilians, so that we consume a lot of food, and the military rations are not enough to sustain the attack on the capital."
This is a typical conspiracy!
Antonio said: "He threw out the plan and slammed it right in our faces, but we have to accept it even if we don't want to. We can't just sit there and watch so many civilians starve to death."
Sevi was a little panicked: "There are at least 50,000 residents in the city, and another 20,000 outside the city. With so many people... how much food will be consumed in a day... What... what should we do?"
Antonio: "Anyway, take out our military rations and share some with the civilians. At least let them fill their stomachs for the time being. We will report back to Her Majesty the Queen immediately."
The vanguard of the Restoration Army suddenly became a little panicked.
The soldiers did not carry much food with them individually. Even if the food carried by the transport team was added, it was still not enough for 50,000 people to have some porridge.
The army's advance was suddenly stopped here.
The MI8 agents who were among the refugees were overjoyed and quickly sent the news back to the capital...
Ugumantai was delighted when he heard this: "Very good, Blackhearted Master, your trick is really useful."
The Black-Hearted Mage chuckled: "The imposter claims to be orthodox, so of course we can't just leave the civilians alone. The tens of thousands of civilians in the Castle of Sorrow will overwhelm her logistics in no time."
Ugumantai: "Just because of this, my reputation in the Castle of Sorrow has plummeted to the bottom."
The Blackhearted Mage said, "What does it matter? If we can defeat the impostor, those scum civilians in the Castle of Sorrow will just have to listen to us. Anyone who dares to talk nonsense will be killed."
Ugumantai gritted his teeth and said, "You are right! Now is not the time to care about the title of 'wise king'. The most important thing is to defeat the impostor first. Black-hearted wizard, go and rob a few more towns and drive all the civilians in the cities to the Sorrowful Castle. Gather them into a super large refugee camp with more than 200,000 people. I want to see how much military rations the impostors have to feed so many mouths."
Blackhearted Mage: "As you wish, my king."
-
"Your Majesty, something terrible has happened." A soldier ran into the tent. "Our vanguard army entered the Sorrowful Castle and found that Ugumantai had taken away all the food in the city. There are more than 50,000 refugees in the city, and now they are all looking for us for food. The vanguard army only has less than a thousand people and cannot provide so much food."
This sentence really scared Elizabeth.
However, Zhang Jingyi, who was sitting next to him petting a calico cat, couldn't help but laugh: "Oh? You're using such a lame trick?"
Elizabeth: "Although it's a bad move, it's one I can't help but take."
"Hmm!" Zhang Jingyi: "Okay, it seems that I have to let him experience what modern industrial power is. Wife, you make arrangements here and ask the dwarves to prepare all the means of transportation, all kinds of clockwork vehicles, horse carriages, ox carts, etc., and come to the portal to pick them up in a few hours. I will go to the other world to make arrangements."
Elizabeth nodded, but was a little hesitant. "Hubby, although your world is extremely rich in resources, it would be quite difficult to produce food for 50,000 people or more in a short period of time, and to supply it continuously for the next few days, right?"
Zhang Jingyi smiled and said, "Difficult? Not at all! I'm worried that the Elf Village has caught too many fish recently and I can't balance them. Ugumantai is helping me balance the supplies, and I have to thank him. It's just food for tens of thousands of people. You wait, I'll be back soon."
