king.

Chapter 265
The situation has reached a stalemate, and the first unlucky one is the Northern Expeditionary Army.Perhaps to put pressure on the Alpha Kingdom, the orcs ramped up their attacks.

Countless cannon fodder races were continuously sent to the battlefield, as if they were trying to grind the Northern Expeditionary Army to death.

"Don't worry, the orcs are at the end of their skills. On the battlefield, soldiers are extremely fast, and our reinforcements are on the way. The longer it takes, the better for us.

In the past, they have already sent their main force to fight us, it is impossible to be so dawdling! "

Marshal Campbell gave a pep talk.

If reinforcements are really on their way, this kind of slow-paced war of attrition is obviously not advisable strategically.

It's a pity that all the great nobles present were sensible people, and they couldn't help fooling around at all.

Although everyone is trapped here with the army, it doesn't mean that they have completely cut off their contact with the country.

The alliance's reinforcements have not come for a long time, and the kingdom's organization's reinforcements are limited in strength and have no ability to rescue them.

At this critical moment, it is not the nobles in the north who are most flustered, but the nobles in the central and southern parts of the kingdom are more worried.

Because they are located in the frontier, they need to worry about the orcs attacking their lairs after returning to their divisions, the nobles of the Northland still left some elites at home.

It is the nobles in the central and southern regions who really come out in full force to pick up the cheap.After all, the front is a win-win battle, and no one thought that there would be changes in the future.

If everyone suffered heavy losses together, the northern nobles who had suffered heavy losses in the war might be able to turn around against the wind and gain an advantage in the next domestic competition.

The only exception is the Duke of Pias.Since receiving the news of Hudson's arrival in Northland, he has never been in a relaxed mood.

The two families are feuds. Judging from the collected information, he knows that Hudson is not someone who repays evil with virtue.If there is a chance to make a move, he will definitely not be soft on the Lochnard family.

Fortunately, the orc army didn't care about invading the Alpha Kingdom. Otherwise, the supreme commander of the defense line in the northern border had been replaced by his own enemy, and the Lochnard family would definitely be in tragedy.

"Marshal, it's not an option to wait like this. It will take some time for the reinforcements from the Human Alliance to arrive. Why don't you urge the Kingdom's reinforcements first.

Don't expect them to be able to rescue us, as long as they appear near the orc army, they can disperse the enemy's forces and reduce the military pressure on our side! "

Duke Pias bit the bullet and suggested.

This is a typical bad idea, but for the sake of his own interests, he can only do so.

Only by leading Hudson away can the safety of his hometown be guaranteed, and he will worry about being cheated at any time.

"Duke Pias, the kingdom's reinforcements are very complicated. Except for a few legions in the hands of Earl Hudson who have some combat effectiveness, the rest are all new legions.

You all have your own information channels, and you probably have heard of it.During the march, these new regiments caused a lot of trouble.

It can be said that it is a disgrace to the kingdom's army, and I count on them to come to the rescue..."

Marshal Campbell resolutely vetoed it.

The Northern Expeditionary Army is already in danger. If unfortunately the entire army is annihilated, the military strength of the Alpha Kingdom will fall to the bottom.

Under this background, if the last support army is paid in, will the future be difficult?
As a member of the royal family, the first thing he needs to consider is the interests of the kingdom.He didn't bother to pay attention to the grievances between the nobles.

The five dukes of northern Xinjiang are united in one spirit, and it stands to reason that everyone should support them at this moment.The reality is that several people closed their eyes and meditated, as if they hadn't heard anything.

Everything is an interest. The Lochnard family has a blood feud with the Koslow family. Everyone can sell favors, but if they are directly involved in the conflict, they have to negotiate terms.

There is no impenetrable wall in the world, and no one can guarantee that today's conversation will not reach Hudson's ears.

In case of making people anxious and deliberately laying mines during military deployment, it would be a tragedy to trap them.

There was no other way. The five major families had done similar things countless times in the past, and they really didn't dare to test Hudson's integrity.

This is the deterrent force of the "halo of famous generals". If it is replaced by a military waste material, everyone will not have such worries.

"Selling teammates" is also a technical job, especially selling teammates in a reasonable way, which makes people unable to pick out the thorns, and it is a test of micro-manipulation ability.

Out of fear of Hudson, everyone would rather secretly help the Locknard family than jump out and get involved.

In this regard, the Duke of Cavadia felt the deepest. His illegitimate son with good abilities was tortured enough by Hudson when he was in the southeastern province.

Even though Sith won the position of sheriff and won the support of the noble children of northern Xinjiang, he had the upper hand in the military from the beginning, but in the end he had to leave in despair.

What makes the Duke of Cavadia afraid is not only Hudson's military command ability, but also his strategic layout ability and ability to dig walls.

He calmly put Sith on the ground, and in the end he didn't even have the ability to resist and struggle, so he had to stop the loss in time.

Even preparing a team for his son ended up making Hudson cheaper.If he hadn't been behind the push, how could it be possible that so many young heroes had gone to the southeast province?

After suffering such a big loss, the Duke of Kavadia would naturally not swallow his anger.It was only out of fear of Hudson that he did not make a move.

Before the Dalton family took the lead against Hudson, he chose to support it; now that the Locknard family is going to take the lead, he also expressed support.

But this support is limited to secretly, and on the surface they pretend to be nonchalant, as if nothing happened.

……

Fort Nadson is located in the northeast of Kreidler province, on the top of Mount Herunladen.

The mountains around the castle are undulating, and the terrain is very dangerous. Only the three-meter walkway on the front can pass.

On the south side of the foot of the mountain is the Obugai River. The river flows under the [-]-meter cliff on the south wall of the ancient city. Standing on the city wall and looking down will make people dizzy.

As the headquarters of the Locknard family, it has been passed down from the time of the Guangming Empire to the present.

After dozens of sieges by the orc army, it has always stood still, and it can be called an "immortal monument" in the Northland.

To be able to take root here so stubbornly, in addition to Fort Nadson's dangerous terrain and avoiding strategic locations, the strength of the Locknard family is also an important factor.

It's just that the atmosphere in Fort Nadson at this moment is particularly dignified.Even if the city was besieged by an army of orcs, I have never seen everyone so nervous.

Unlike the previous enemies, the enemies who came this time were directly exempted from terrain restrictions.No matter how majestic the cliff city is, it is nothing to the dragon.

"Torsten, we just had a bloody battle with the orcs, and now half of the family's troops are in the Northern Expeditionary Army, no one knows how much we can withdraw.

It is really not suitable to make enemies now, or else discuss with the clan elders, negotiate terms with the dragon outside, and spend money to buy peace. "

After hearing what his mother said, Torsten fell silent.As the heir of the family, he has many issues to consider.

With the strength of the Lochnard family, it is not a problem at all to drive away a giant dragon, but it is another matter if it is replaced by the Dragon King.

Admitting counsel seems to be a good choice, but the price that needs to be paid is the prestige of the Lochnard family.

Originally, their reputation in the aristocratic circle was not good, and it was their strength that allowed them to survive.If the power shock is gone, life in the kingdom will be difficult in the future.

After hesitating again and again, Torsten said slowly: "Got it, mother. I'll go and test the appetite of this dragon first. If we can agree, it will be regarded as bankruptcy and disaster avoidance."

I have to admit that Maxim's appearance is born to do business without money.With its huge size of more than 70 meters, it can really scare many people.

From this point of view, the special education given to him by Mother Long is not without reason.

Before Torsten could step out of the room, the dragon flames that fell from the sky caused chaos in the city.

There is no way, who made them not react fast enough, and Maxim is not a patient dragon.

I haven't seen anyone reply for a long time, so of course I have to solve the problem in my own way.

The flames sprayed out by the giant dragon hit the spot, and a fire broke out in Fort Nadson in an instant.

It's a pity that Maxim missed a point. The warning can not only scare people, but also attract the enemy's counterattack.

The defenders who have been fighting the orcs for a long time have a top-notch reaction speed.After discovering that the dragon started to attack, the officers below spontaneously organized a counterattack.

Magic crystal cannons, magic crossbows, trebuchets... Regardless of whether they worked or not, they all greeted Maxim.

The huge body increased the efficiency bonus for Maxim when he was fighting small soldiers; it also inevitably increased the enemy's hit rate when he was being beaten.

Inadvertently, he was hit by the enemy's magic crystal cannon. This kind of attack could kill the dragon, but the pain made Maxim scream.

"Damn reptiles, dare to attack the great Maxim, you are all going to die!

No, death is not enough, I will burn your souls for 1000 years..."

The angry red dragon had already forgotten the purpose of coming out this time, and launched the most violent revenge amidst the scolding.

The bloody battle kicked off, and Torsten, who originally wanted to negotiate, completely extinguished the idea of ​​"putting an end to Ninglong".

Death is not enough, and their souls are burned, so what is there to talk about?
"What are you doing in a daze, why don't you ask the clan elders to help!"

While reprimanding his subordinates, the powerful members of the Locknard family had already appeared on the battlefield.With such a big movement, it was hard not to attract their attention.

Seeing Maxim's huge size, the leading white-haired old man was startled, and hurriedly shouted: "Mr. Dragon, I have something to do..."

It's a pity that they didn't finish their words, and they were greeted by a tail, and they were so frightened that they quickly dodged.

There is nothing to talk about, so we can only fight.Soon they realized that something was wrong, the strength of the giant dragon in front of them was completely out of proportion.

Under normal circumstances, a blow from the Dragon King would be enough to kill any of them, but this guy just injured them.

"Don't be afraid, everyone, this giant dragon should be injured and unable to exert its full strength!

The magic crystal cannon and magic crossbow attacks continue, all ordinary attacks stop, and the knights above silver can stay and join the battle! "

The white-haired old man hastily ordered.

A giant dragon with rough skin and thick flesh is a professional in killing small soldiers.If the red dragon in front of him is allowed to toss, the defenders will suffer heavy losses.

Even after reacting, the loss was still caused.Not too many people died directly under the claws of Maxim's dragon, but the fireworks all over the city made people have nowhere to hide.

The weird dragon flame cannot be extinguished by watering at all.There are not enough water magicians in the city, so they can only be buried with soil.

However, in a large area of ​​fire, a little dust is completely useless.Many people were buried in the raging fire before they could react in the house.

……

"Rough leather and thick armor are simply natural weapons of war. If used well on the battlefield, the effect it can exert is enough to outperform tens of thousands of elite soldiers!

Especially this talent for setting fire, he is simply the best player in the game of Huo Shao Lian Ying..."

"Tch, this dragon is really useless! To rush in so stupidly, without knowing how to sneak attack and beat Sap, it deserves to be beaten!
If it were for Uncle Cost to take action, these old fellows would have died long ago, how could we give them a chance to besiege..."

Hidden in a special cloud, one person and one bear wantonly commented.Especially Bear Stearns, the appearance of hating dragons for not becoming talents is even more cute.

Tucao belongs to Tucao, but Hudson didn't mean to make a move.

There are also principles in the nobles' infighting. It doesn't matter to kill people with a knife secretly. If you participate in it yourself, the nature will change.

As for helping the Locknard family deal with Maxim, it is even more impossible.His integrity is not high enough to even save the enemy,
"Come on, Bear Stearns. The scene is coming to an end, and when the stupid dragon down there wakes up, he's going to run away.

If we don't leave here, we will be discovered. "

Hudson stroked the bear's head and said.

I have to admit that this gravity magic is easy to use.It is obviously an earth-type magic, but it can actually make people fly.

It's a pity that the threshold is too high. A strong person who can use gravity magic to this level doesn't need chicken ribs at all.

At least Hudson's earth magic can't reach this level. On the contrary, it's wind magic that can give him, a new mage, the ability to fly for a short time.

The only problem is that the sequelae are a bit big. When practicing flying skills, Hudson hit a tree more than once.

Fortunately, he had the foresight to push Bears to the front every time.Even if there is a collision, the tree is gone.
