king.

Chapter 198
Royeia's death not only did not break down the remaining Beamon cavalry, but made them even more crazy.

It's a pity that this kind of madness is doomed to be futile in the face of absolute military superiority.

No matter how brave a warrior is, he can't stop the spears stabbing him from all directions.

What's more, after a fierce battle just now, the state of the Beamon cavalry is not at its peak.The crazy dying struggle only made the failure look more tragic.

Witnessing a battle in which many ants killed elephants, Hudson secretly reminded himself: When fighting with soldiers, you must be more stable.

Royeia lying on the ground is the best negative example.

If it wasn't for that incomparable arrogance, he would have lost himself.As long as a few more scouts are left outside to watch out for movements around them, they won't be dumped.

……

"Clean up the battlefield immediately, burn the corpses on the spot, and then retreat with the wounded! This place is not far from the orc camp, so the speed of action must be fast."

Hudson ordered pretending to be calm.

Annihilating a full Beamon cavalry regiment, even if it was done at a cheap price, is also something worthy of celebration.

As the first complete annihilation of the Beamon Cavalry Regiment since the outbreak of the war, it will definitely be written about by various countries and endowed with special political meaning.

Not being fond of appearances is the basic quality of a general.Especially when winning battles, it is even more important to remain rational at all times.

Even though he was happy in his heart, in order to maintain a high-quality personality, Hudson forcibly restrained his emotions.

The coach can restrain his joy, and the officers and soldiers below will not be able to do it.Looking at the joyful expressions of each one, you can tell that everyone is very satisfied with this battle.

Hudson has already begun to enjoy the dividends brought about by the battle victory.The most direct impact is that his prestige in the army has increased.

Not only in the Wrightshire Legion, it is also effective for the new 23rd Legion of the Mossi.

The consecutive victories raised everyone's confidence in him to the peak.

Now that the command of the new 23rd Army is issued, there is no need for the leader of the Raquel Army to relay it, and the officers below will carry it out spontaneously.

Under normal circumstances, if this kind of suspected robbery and seizure of power happened, the two sides would have to turn their faces.

But now is the time of war, his smart and capable elder brother is besieged by the army of orcs, and he may be sent to see the Lord of Dawn at any time. It is too late for Raquel to hug his thigh, so how dare he make trouble.

Command, that's a minor issue.From Raquel's point of view, no matter how powerful Hudson is, he is still an outsider and will not take root in the Principality of Mosi, and taking away the command of the army is only temporary.

What he needs most now is to follow along with his military exploits.

In case my elder brother unfortunately dies, and by the way he completes his fortune, the meritorious service he has accumulated now may be a life-saving medicine at some point in the future.

After arranging military affairs, Hudson set his sights on the rescued small team.

"Who are you? Why are you here?"

It's not that Hudson deliberately did things.From a geographical point of view, this place belongs to the subordinate area of ​​Bethel City. Because it is too close to the front line, it has already completed the clearing of the walls.

Under normal circumstances, no one should pass by at this time.If it hadn't been for the fight with the orcs just now, which proved that he was not the spy of the orcs, maybe he would not have been interrogated, but had been captured directly.

Extraordinary times call for extraordinary measures.The Principality of Moxi had issued a ban long ago, prohibiting domestic people from entering the war zone.

Hearing the question, Anthony, who hadn't recovered from his grief, replied indiscriminately: "We are a passing caravan. We were robbed by orcs and fled all the way here."

As soon as he finished speaking, several experienced seniors in the team realized that something was going to happen.

This excuse is really too nonsense.There are countless loopholes in it.

Which caravan doesn't even have a carriage?

Which caravan has such a strong guard?

Which caravan dares to come to the front line at this time without knowing life or death?

……

Too many questions, can not be solved.Getting together is equivalent to directly telling the other party that there is a problem with their identities.

They were all forced out. In their current state, if they encountered an unfamiliar army, who knew what would happen if their identities were exposed?
The inheritance of the Liboron family is very tempting.Even old relatives and friends in the past, it is possible to lay hands on them, let alone strangers who have nothing to do with each other.

Just put on the hat of a deserter and take them down directly.In this wilderness, there is no chance to complain.

"Dear general, we are worshipers of the Warren Chamber of Commerce. We were invited by the Erwin family to do business. This is a special pass issued by Viscount John."

While speaking, the old magister also took out a parchment contract document, proving that they are really a caravan, which can be regarded as a supplement to the loopholes in Anthony's previous words.

It's a pity that this scene fell into Hudson's eyes, but it made him doubt the identities of these people more and more.It was so well prepared, as if it had been deliberately arranged.

The rules are all for ordinary people. If you are a member of the four major chambers of commerce in the mainland, it is not a problem to directly get a pass issued by the king.

Now is the time of war, and these giant chambers of commerce roaming around the mainland can obtain a large amount of strategic materials, and they are always guests wherever they go.

As long as you don't do business with the orcs and greet the frontline generals in advance, everyone will give them face.

"That's right, I happen to be going to Flying Bear's Fort to switch defenses, so let's go together!
Although Viscount John died in battle, with the reputation of the Irwin family, the business can still continue.

Even if you have an accident on the road, as long as you explain the situation in the past, as well-mannered nobles, they can understand.

Don't thank me, it's all easy.Going out and being convenient to others is also convenient to oneself. "

After finishing speaking, Hudson turned around and left without giving the old man a chance to refuse.

It's okay to hide your identity.

Just because I don't know these guys, doesn't mean that the nobles of the new 23rd Legion don't know either.There were more than 40 survivors, and he didn't believe that all of them were hidden in the dark and never showed their faces.

Once a person is recognized, their identity is revealed.It will be too late to consider the issue of disposal at that time.

Without the slightest concealment of the conspiracy, it is naturally impossible to hide it from everyone.Watching Hudson leave, Anthony said annoyedly: "It's all my fault for being so flustered, what should uncle do now?"

"It has nothing to do with you, after all, our plan is not thorough enough. As far as the strength of our group is concerned, no matter what identities we use to cover up, people will find something is wrong.

You all saw the battle just now.From beginning to end, the entire battle process was very crisp and neat.

Troops with this kind of combat effectiveness are rare in the entire Principality.Even the most elite troops in the family can't guarantee to do better than them.

Judging from the accents of these people, they are probably from the Alpha Kingdom.The general who came to question him just now should be the Earl of Yueluowan who was recently conferred by the Principality.

There are many legends about this person, and it is impossible to verify whether the rumors are true or not, but one thing is certain, this earl is very powerful.

Being targeted by this person, the reasons we prepared in advance may not be able to fool us.

I found an acquaintance in the crowd just now. If we weren't too embarrassed in our current appearance, I'm afraid we would have exposed our identities.

The next step is to act together with the army, and it is only a matter of time before the identity is revealed.Instead of being suspected after being exposed, it is better to go directly to the showdown.

We have had no feud with this Earl of Hudson in the past, nor have we had any feud these days.Thinking about it, he wouldn't kill us for no reason.

The current Liberon family can't stand the toss. If the conditions are not too much, it should be regarded as a thank you gift for saving this life.Hope this one is as upright as the rumors say, and don't eat too much. "

The old magister said helplessly.

A plucked peacock is not as good as a chicken, and the current Leboron family is a plucked peacock.

The strength of the family has been greatly damaged, and the inheritance of the profound heritage of the Leibolong family has become a child holding a gold brick in a busy market, and will be missed wherever he goes.

……

After cleaning the battlefield and counting the casualties and gains, Hudson was very satisfied with the one-to-two exchange ratio.

The target of this exchange is the Beamon cavalry. Throughout the entire continent of Aslante, there are not many troops that can fight them head-on.

Don't say that the exchange ratio is one to two, even if it is two to one, it is a great joyous event for the human race to celebrate.

There is no doubt that this battle report is watery.The Beamon cavalry who were killed earlier were also counted.

It's not that Hudson wants to embezzle their military exploits, it's entirely because these people themselves gave their identity as "caravan".Since it is a caravan, the action of the coalition forces is to rescue.

As the rescued party, it would be nonsense to divide the military exploits.The rules of the game cannot be broken, and Hudson can only accept this exploit silently.

After the recording of the photo stone is completed, and a fire is set off, it will be considered as a successful end to this encirclement and annihilation campaign.

I don't know if it was too far away, or because I realized it later, when the army withdrew, the eagle scouts appeared in the sky.

How could Hudson be polite to the enemies who came to his door?

"Whoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

Lifting the bow, nodding the arrow, aiming, and the arrow flying out, the whole process was nothing without the slightest lag.

Accompanied by the sound of arrows piercing through the air, the eagle scouts in the sky fell directly, and the corpses were smashed into a pulp.

Others bend their bows to shoot big eagles, but Hudson can only bend their bows to shoot big eagles.But this feeling is still pretty good.

The only problem is that after the eagles were hit by arrows, they fell like a boulder falling from the sky, and the damage was not small at all.

Just now, a nasty horse was unfortunately hit by a Yingman who fell from the sky, and it died immediately.

This is considered good luck. If you are unlucky, you will inevitably go to the Kingdom of God to listen to the teachings of the Lord of Dawn in advance if you hit someone.

While directing the evacuation of the army, Hudson did not forget to send good news to Crown Prince Caesar and King Chris IX respectively.

Political sense told him that both men needed the feat now.At the moment when the Bethel fortress fell, any victory seemed precious.

In particular, this classic battle of annihilating the Beamon Cavalry Regiment is worthy of a special book.

It's just that Hudson didn't know what to do. The last encounter with the orc army was blown into a turning point.

This time the situation is more special, and it has more propaganda significance. I don't know what it will be called.

After all, the propaganda of the Mosi people has the attribute of a crow's mouth.The last "Turning Battle" was publicized, and now a turning point has really taken place.

It's just that this kind of turning point is not what everyone wants.The fall of Bethel Fortress directly caused the situation in Moxi Principality to take a turn for the worse.

If the crow's mouth attribute is used again this time, whether the Principality of Moxi can hold on will become unknown.

Based on Hudson's understanding of the Principality of Moxi, if he wanted to mobilize troops in a short period of time to re-establish a fortress to block the orc army, the probability of success would not exceed [-]%.

……

The good news is still on the way, but the bad news has arrived in Da Pest first.

Holding the battle report from Marshal Hodge and looking at the content recorded above, Chris IX couldn't believe it was true.

"The Liboron family, are they just such a waste?"

Facing the king's question, everyone lowered their heads one after another.As a veteran aristocrat of the principality, the Leiboron family has always given everyone the impression that they are powerful.

Even if it is going downhill, no one dares to underestimate this old family.

If it weren't for the fact that this family is relatively salty, has always been rooted in the local area and devoted itself to business operations, and has little involvement in the affairs of the central government, otherwise there must be a place for them among the important officials present.

Having no family members in high positions does not mean that there is no right to speak in the central government.There is still no shortage of relatives, friends, and political allies in the central government.

All the important officials present can basically have a relationship with the Liboron family.Of course, these people can also be related to each other.

There were not many great nobles in the Principality of Moxi.The circle is so big, it is inevitable to marry each other.

"Your Majesty, the fall of Bethel Fortress is not only the responsibility of the Liboron family. Compared with the behemoth of the Orc Empire, any noble family is insignificant.

When the orcs made up their minds to conquer a fortress, it was only a matter of time before it fell.

Before the fall of the fortress of Bethel, they also sent numerous appeals to the principality, detailing the plight they were facing.

However, due to the constraints of the special situation on the battlefield and the shortage of frontline troops, reinforcements were not sent to them in time.

Judging from the situation recorded in the photo stone, the defense of Bethel was fought very cruelly, and the Liboron family has tried their best. "

Martins couldn't resist a fair word.

As the minister of military affairs, he has a deeper understanding of the frontline situation than everyone present, and he is very aware of the difficulties of defending the army.

It is miserable enough for people to shroud their bodies in horse leather and stain the city with blood for the principality.It is too unkind to continue to pursue the responsibility of the dead.

As an in-law, he must stand up at this time.

"Your Majesty, the situation has developed to the point where we are now. We can discuss right and wrong later. The most urgent thing is to do a good job in the aftermath.

The situation on the front line is indeed very bad now. Marshal Hodge made it clear that he does not have enough mobility in his hands to plug the gap.

The orc army already has the ability to drive straight in, and the next war situation will definitely become more difficult.

In view of the current situation, we must carefully consider Marshal Hodge's proposal to expand the scope of strong walls and clear fields.

According to the experience of the Alpha Kingdom, every time the orcs came to an army, they would carry out large-scale fortified walls and clear the wilderness in many provinces in the northern border.

Previously, we followed suit and carried out fortification and clearing of some areas. Judging from the current situation, the results are not bad.

Without these preparations, perhaps what we are facing now is not just an army of more than 60 orcs, but an army of millions of orcs.

But the problem lies in the large-scale implementation of fortifying the wall and clearing the wilderness, and the price to be paid is also very heavy.

Not only was the food and grass provided to the front line by the northern provinces gone, but even the lords and nobles everywhere had to reach out to the Principality for food in order to be able to persist for a long time. "

The good and the bad have been said, but there is no solution to the problem.It's not that Prime Minister Herceg's IQ is not enough, it's just that this is an unsolvable proposition.
