That's very badass

Chapter 129 The Ubiquitous Conspiracy

Because they were on the front line, the banquet did not last long. Except for the initial wave of drinking, everyone ate the food with restraint and then returned to their campsites.

Roland and the nobles belonging to the same camp returned to the camp. On the way, they first praised Roland for his bravery, and then got down to business.

They first complained about the fact that the Andal knights ordered all their soldiers and horses to attack the army formation. Seeing that Roland didn't respond to this, they couldn't help feeling that there are all kinds of knights as there are lords.

But they are more envious. They also want such loyal subordinates. Unfortunately, they are still in the middle position in the Viscount family, and they don't have the ability to train so many subordinates.

Then they threw out what they thought was the least important news, that is, the little girl from the Whitnet family also joined in the fun.

This surprised Roland, and made him truly feel the determination of the Whitnet family to make friends.

At the same time, he admired Miss Vicky's courage. It was not surprising that Andal, as his companion, acted like this, but she did make him feel something called moving.

Seeing that Roland, who had been acting calmly, finally showed a look of surprise, everyone nodded in satisfaction and congratulated Roland on his happy marriage.

Roland:? ! ?Should I thank them? ! ?

Sure enough, as they said, as soon as Roland returned to the camp, he saw Knight Andal and Miss Vicky waiting at the door. Roland felt a little embarrassed on the spot, and the nobles also left directly with a wink.

It wasn't until everyone left that Knight Andal snorted coldly and said, "Sir, please don't be so reckless next time. You must understand the burden on your shoulders.

In the absence of descendants and any relatives, once you die, your territory will be taken back by the king. This is a stipulation in the kingdom's laws.

I think other nobles would be very happy to see such a thing, because they will definitely get the corresponding land or benefits.

Of course, as the king, the Rhodes family must occupy the largest share. "

Roland understood what he was talking about in an instant. Andal was just saying that His Majesty the King didn't just take a fancy to his ability, and there were other considerations in it.

His victory was good, as it would boost morale. If he died, the king could take advantage of the situation to take back his territory, or even take away the entire land directly after exchanging some benefits.

It was the territory of a big earl. Considering the fertility of the land, it was not much worse than the territory of the marquis. Even the king coveted it.

On this day, it can be said that Roland's concept was refreshed again and again. He no longer dared to say that he knew these nobles, because in comparison, he was a 'silly and sweet'.

This is a real and 'cannibal' society, where darkness, disorder, and conspiracy are everywhere.

Under the guise of everything being for the family, they did evil deeds and were proud of it.

This was the first time Roland felt the ubiquitous malice, and I solemnly said, "I know, this will definitely not happen next time."

But Andal just rolled his eyes and said, here it comes, here it comes again, and it will be next time. This kind of words has already made others numb.

Seeing that everything that needs to be said has been said, and the interests have been clarified by the adults, Andal left here directly, leaving behind Roland and Miss Vicky.

Fortunately, there was no such thing as two people staring at each other. As a man, Roland did not have the habit of letting the lady speak first.

"First of all, thank you for your support, Miss Vicky, the Whitnet family has been my most reliable ally ever since."

Seeing that Roland didn't say what she wanted, Miss Vicky was a little disappointed, but this can be considered a good start, at least Roland no longer regards the Whitnet family as an enemy.

"Thank you for your kindness, Earl Roland, and please pay attention to those families that belong to you, because they are not so supportive of you.

They even tried to prevent our rescue efforts.

In the end, you know what I want, and I will always wait for the day when you come to Viscount Whitnet. "

After speaking, Miss Vicky also left here directly. Roland touched his nose helplessly. Of course he knew what Miss Vicky was talking about, and it wasn't that Miss Vicky was not beautiful enough.

It's just that he really doesn't have that leisurely heart. They are now in a war that will determine their fate. Even so, those intrigues are inevitable.

His basic market is also facing a crisis at this time. Although it seems to be resolved for the time being, he doesn't know whether it will continue to encounter crises.

It all left him feeling uneasy and wondering if he would survive the fight.

Because judging from today's situation, the army of the Kingdom of Hastings has become stronger, and they have passed the test of a tough battle.

Compared with the army of the Kingdom of Rhodes, they are more determined and more experienced.

This can be seen from their cheers that are not to be outdone.

At least today's Dawn Legion has left a deep impression on him. He doesn't know if the Giant Beast Legion can do it, because they haven't reached that step yet.

Roland shook his head vigorously, shook off the messy thoughts in his mind, and walked towards his tent.

After arriving at the tent, Roland opened the system interface directly. The experience data had been completely refreshed. Roland didn't bother to look through it carefully. He looked directly at his level.

Surprised to find that it has reached level 30, which is a full improvement of 11 levels.Open the family interface again and find that the family level has been raised to level 4.

He needs to make up for some shortcomings found in the battle. After the addition, Roland's attributes are as follows:
【Name: Roland

Age: 25
Prestige: 11521/100000 Family Level: 4
Level: 19→30
Experience: 548660/575168
Strength: 21→30
Agility: 8→10
Charisma: 3
Wisdom: 10
Iron Bones: 7→10, Strong Attack: 7→10, Weapon Mastery: 3, Shield Defense: 2, Surgery 3, Item Management 2,

One-handed weapon proficiency: 120→200, two-handed weapon proficiency: 217, riding: 120, throwing proficiency: 80, long-stem weapon proficiency: 80]

Considering that he first needed to survive this battle, he did not choose to continue adding points to two-handed weapons this time, but instead focused all points on one-handed weapons.

As for other proficiency, it is improved through daily exercise.

Feeling the power emerging from his body, Roland took out the two-handed sword he used before, and found that it was already as light as a feather, and he could even use it as a one-handed sword.

He holds a shield in one hand and a two-handed sword in the other. It doesn't look very coordinated, and it's not easy to use, because the weapon is obviously larger and longer than the one-handed weapon, so it always collides with the shield.

However, in terms of destructive power, it has indeed increased a lot. Just relying on the weight of the weapon, he can injure a large number of people.

Roland knew that he had to solve this problem as soon as possible, so he immediately called Andal to serve as his partner. Seeing his look of seeing a ghost, Roland laughed and started a lame attack.

It wasn't until the weapons and shields stopped colliding, and looking at the quiet camp, Roland knew that it was not appropriate to practice anymore, and after directly knocking Andal down with stronger force, he put away his sword and shield and went to the tent to rest contentedly. up.

The time has come to November. At this time, there has been heavy snowfall in the northern border of the kingdom. This also makes Duke Osborne feel relieved. This means that until the beginning of spring tomorrow, the North Wind Fortress will be in a safe environment.

The southern part of the battlefield has not yet received snowfall, but the weather has begun to turn cold, and braziers have been burned in the tents, and the nobles are sitting around and chatting.

As for the task of patrolling, they were assigned to those family knights. Of course they complained about this, but they could only complain in their hearts.

It has been more than ten days since the battle that day, and there has been no major battle after that, only the scouts of the two sides are constantly fighting.

Roland's daily routine is to practice constantly with Andal to master his uncoordinated sword and shield, but what makes him feel uncomfortable is that a group of people will come to watch every day.

This made him feel like someone was watching a monkey show. Fortunately, with the passage of time, everyone has lost interest in this kind of boring practice, which also let everyone know the origin of Roland's strength.

Roland's use of the big sword was as smooth as a one-handed sword. After another day of practice, he returned to the tent and took off his armor. He looked at the brazier in front of him and fell into deep thought.

As the weather continues to get colder, heavy snow will come, and the action will become more difficult at that time. Roland knows that this also means that the decisive battle is about to begin.

Either it's just these days, or everyone is going to wait until next spring to continue fighting, but considering the difficulty of transportation in winter, he is sure that the two sides will definitely choose to start a decisive battle immediately.

During this period, he received a letter from the territory, which was sent by a war horse, detailing all the current conditions of the territory. It turned out that the person who came to attack his territory was none other than Fox's elder brother, Earl Carney.

But now Earl Kearney has died in battle, and at the same time, Fox has also brought soldiers to take over the earldom as the heir, and let him not have to worry about this matter.

Looking at the date above, it was already 2 months ago. Of course, he was not worried, because during this period of time, he had not gained any family prestige, which meant that everything was going well for them.

This reminded him of the iron ore businessman named Beam they met when they were still outside the Evernight Forest. He was from the Earl of Carney.

That is to say, Earl Kearney's territory has iron ore. Thinking that the iron ore problem that has been coveted in the territory has been solved in this way, Roland feels excited and at the same time dumbfounded.

Considering the fact that Fox is a companion, that is to say, he has indirectly controlled two counties, this is the best news during this period.

It's just that this news can't let other people know, so as to prevent someone from making trouble, but as long as they don't tell it themselves, others will not be aware of this problem.

The soldier on the watchtower was yawning boredly, when he suddenly found signs of the enemy army gathering, he immediately took a deep breath, picked up the horn beside him and blew
With the blowing of the first horn, the other horn players were awakened immediately, and horns were blown one after another throughout the camp.

At this moment, the whole camp seemed to be in a frying pan. Roland was shocked, and at the same time, he took his weapon and shield and ran outside.

He knew that the enemy was gathering and there was no other possibility.

Unless all our trumpeters are dozing off, this is obviously impossible.

If something like this can cause an oolong, he will even consider going back home directly, and even plan to change the monarch.

Looking at the troops gathering in the opposing camp, Roland shouted, "Everyone, assemble and prepare for battle."

At this time, other nobles also began to rush here one after another. Looking at the serious-looking nobles, Roland just nodded towards them, and looked at the enemy's army formation again.

The soldiers who heard the order began to gather quickly. They all tried to get close to Roland, but they were soon pushed aside by the imperial soldiers.

As a last resort, the soldiers of the nobles had to follow their commander. This behavior made the nobles somewhat ashamed.

But they didn't say anything, because facts have proved that Roland is indeed a powerful fighter.

As they assembled, the enemy had assembled and moved forward.

At this time, the messenger also brought His Majesty's order, "Count Roland, His Majesty has an order to let you lead the legion to advance. And decide the battle according to the situation."

Because Roland's line was at the very edge, he rode back straight after speaking, and Roland nodded thoughtfully.

The number of their armies is too large, and it takes a long time just to convey an order back and forth. It will happen that the day lilies are cold after the order is conveyed.

Considering the fact that the battlefield is changing rapidly and opportunities cannot be missed, His Majesty Quesnel divided the army into legions of ten thousand people according to the usual practice, and appointed corresponding commanders for them.

At the same time, there is no idea of ​​using archers and cavalry among them, because they fight in units of legions.

Without these arms, they would not have any room for maneuver and space for tactics.

Roland looked at Andal beside him, and after getting the approval of other nobles, he assigned the command of all the cavalry in the army to Andal.

They directly arranged for Andal to lead the cavalry away from the army formation, and let them cruise outside, threatening the enemy army formation and at the same time restraining the enemy cavalry.

"Everyone, disperse and move forward."

After everything was arranged, Roland immediately issued the order to advance, and the armies of both sides turned into legions of ten thousand people and began to advance towards the corresponding goals.

The war has begun.
