Heroes of the Invincible Knight
Chapter 230: uninvited guest
Ironwood Council Chamber,
After the Hunter family made a fortune, the decoration of the council hall has also been updated a lot. There are new round tables and wooden chairs, large column statues, and even a bear capital hanging on it, which looks a lot more atmospheric. This kind of decoration is magnificent. Style, unlike the southern aristocracy who likes to decorate with luxurious fabrics and jewelry, it has a bit of the taste of the North,
Of course, in the eyes of the southern nobles, this style can be directly called barbaric, but Viscount Souter and the old straight men of the Hunter family like this style.
After entering the hall, everyone did not laugh like before, but each found their own seat and sat down.
The rules of the Hunter family, or the rules set by Li Cha, are like this. On weekdays, some jokes are innocuous, but when everyone wants to talk about serious business in this council room, they should be serious and serious. look,
Richard was accustomed to sit on the main seat, Viscount Sauter sat in the starting position, and the remaining two uncles, butler Iger and other key personnel took their seats in turn.
"According to the reliable information I have received, there will be orc spies entering the Northland in the near future."
"Orc spies?"
"Is this information accurate?"
When Li Cha said this, the entire council room was a little blown up. It wasn't because everyone didn't trust Li Cha, it was because some understandings were already deeply ingrained.
Orcs are the most powerful enemies of human beings, but they have been blocked east of Dragon's Breath Pass for hundreds of years. Everyone really can't believe that orcs will infiltrate the northern land.
Richard wanted to tell them that the Dragon's Breath Pass had been breached, and the orcs might have come here. Maybe they didn't have such big doubts, at least it made sense logically.
"It is almost certain that when the ogres were advancing east, there was information that there might be orcs appearing on the battlefield."
Li Cha did not say the source of the intelligence. After all, it is a little outrageous to speculate the reason based on the tasks released by the system.
Fortunately, Richard's prestige in the Hunter's house is high enough that everyone can basically believe that there may be orcs infiltrating the Northland after Richard's confirmation.
"Infiltrating into the north, coming from the extreme northern snowfield?"
"Going to the extreme northern snowfield, bypassing the Daxue Mountain, passing through the site of the Snow Giant, and then going south to the Ironwood Forest or the Wilderness, this is the only route."
"There are basically no conditions for marching in the extreme northern snowfield. The environment is already bad enough, and we have to deal with snow giants. I heard that snow giants are a race with strong territorial awareness. Orcs crossing the snowfield like this will not be attacked by snow giants?"
Richard's subordinates have never relaxed the collection of information about the snowfield and some geographic information outside the Northland, and they often spread these to their own senior management. In Richard's view, these are very basic, but most of the nobility in this era did not have the geography Common sense, so everyone can correctly guess the path of the orcs.
First of all, it must be ruled out that the orcs infiltrated from the Dragon's Breath Pass. Let alone the more than one million elite troops there are strictly guarded, and not even a bird can pass through. Why shouldn't you come to the Northland?
Thinking like this, there is only one way left to bypass the extreme northern snow-capped mountains and cross the snowy plains. This road is definitely not far away. If you march normally, you can reach it in less than a month.
But for so long, the orcs have not walked this road, and there is a reason why humans have not been on guard. Such a harsh environment basically does not have the possibility of a large-scale army passing through. The road is blocked by daily strong winds and heavy snow, and the logistics of crossing the army is simply Nightmare, it may be okay to be a small elite, but if there are too few people, nothing can be done.
The second is that after passing through the snowfield, you have to face the snow giants who attach great importance to hunting grounds. Don’t look at Richard’s victory over the Bingyan tribe. hit effect,
If you directly cross the snow field, you have to pass through the territory of at least several medium-sized tribes, then you have to face the few hostile land steps and hundreds of snow giants of the great knight step. If the army disturbs the snow giant royal court, then Even more incredible, the possibility of the entire army being wiped out is extremely high. No one has considered this road before. Now that Li Cha is certain, it has been carefully scrutinized by the senior executives of the Hunter family.
"Is it possible that the orcs and the snow giants reached some agreement?"
"Okay, everyone doesn't need to discuss this issue. We will make arrangements according to the forecast that there will be orc spies or even a small orc army infiltrating the Northland in the near future, and strengthen patrols and take strict precautions."
"Yes."
This is probably the benefit of Li Cha's words. Li Cha must forcefully promote things. Even if the people below have any doubts, as long as it is not so outrageous that it cannot be executed, it will be thoroughly implemented. Viscount Souter, who had decided to cause some disturbance, was either acting as the **** of sleep or the first to raise his hand to agree in such a situation, and there would be no other opinions at all.
This time the matter was serious, Viscount Sauter didn't act like a **** of sleep, instead he frowned and put his hands on the table and hugged him tightly after listening to the whole thing.
"If the orcs infiltrate from the north through the Ironwood Forest, can we Ironwood City resist it?"
Viscount Sot directly agreed with Richard's statement in the first sentence, and what he was worried about was the strength of the orcs.
Although Viscount Sauter has no control over civil affairs, his military literacy is not bad. It would be better if only a small range of spies penetrated. After all, the ogres in the wilderness have already broken Li Cha's bones, and a small number of elites come to the north. The ground can't borrow strength at all,
But if it is really a small elite army infiltrating, it will be very dangerous. The orcs come from the snowy field so aggressively, they will definitely not be just two or three cats and dogs. If they want to do big things, the strength of this team will definitely exceed the power of the cable. Viscount Te's imagination, otherwise it would not make much sense. Although Viscount Sote occasionally showed arrogance, he was not arrogant enough to ignore the orcs who once rode on the heads of humans and were also the kingdom's confidant enemy for hundreds of years. Race.
"I'll introduce it to you."
"Your Excellency Angele, I will join Ironwood City and go directly to Ironwood Castle in the future."
The champion knight, who had been standing behind Richard, clenched his fists and signaled to the crowd without saying more, acting rather cold.
"This is?"
"Father, don't worry, in addition to Angele, there are several strong men who have settled in at the same time. They are all my most loyal subordinates, and they are absolutely reliable."
Li Cha blocked the question that Viscount Sutter wanted to ask next. Anyway, it was absolutely reliable, and his son's subordinates should trust him, but in terms of strength...
"Angrie is an earth knight, and the others are also good knights. I believe that cooperating with the Ironwood City garrison can ensure the safety of Ironwood City, at least until I lead the army back to help."
Although Li Cha is still in the wilderness, he still has no plans to divide his troops. Griffin can keep an eye on the situation here, but if there is a problem in Ironwood City or any point, he can bring the system troops to quickly provide support.
With logistics, knight gloves and supernatural boots, it's not impossible to run at a ghostly speed.
"cough cough"
After listening to Richard's introduction, Viscount Sauter didn't catch his breath for a while. The strength of the Earth Rank is really amazing. The people below also looked at each other in dismay.
If Richard said that this person is the peak of the great knight, they would not doubt it, but if the land is on the ground, there are only three on the bright side of the kingdom. Home is not qualified to touch this level of power,
Originally, the Great Knight was considered an unfathomable existence in their eyes, and it was only after they made a fortune recently that everyone was a little more courageous and could accept the strength of the Great Knight's peak. In addition, the back is only supported by several big knights, otherwise it will not be hammered by the ogre like that.
Li Cha didn't say much, and gave Angele a look, and the latter pulled out the knight's sword from his waist and danced, and a grudge came out of the sword.
"Boom!"
Dou Qi slammed on the thick stone slab more than ten meters away from the council hall, and the thick stone plate was directly blasted by Dou Qi to a small hole.
"This…"
"Fighting out of the body!"
I have never eaten pork, but I have seen pigs run away. The fighting qi left the body and smashed the stone slabs more than ten meters away. This is a typical feature of the earth steps.
Everyone was surprised at first and then delighted. No matter how magical, anyway, in addition to Master Li Cha who seems to have the strength of the Earth Rank, there is another Earth Rank powerhouse.
All the people present were closely related to the interests of the Hunter family. Looking at the outrageous strength of the Hunter family, in addition to surprises, they naturally had greater expectations. There are only a few in the entire human race. Now the Hunter family has more expectations. There are only two out of the family, isn't that not destiny?
If they knew that there were nearly ten of Li Cha's subordinates with such strength, wouldn't they be so excited that they would faint?
After Angele proved his strength, the remaining crusaders and senior monks naturally did not need to prove anything. They still stood silently outside the door, but the people in the council room looked at them differently. .
"Angeli will lead people to garrison in Ironwood City to ensure that Ironwood City is safe, and all the farmers and soldiers from each village will be pulled out to patrol day and night. Now that spring ploughing is almost done, it's time to test our Hunter family's ability to mobilize in wartime.
The rest of the cavalry patrols are still as usual, but the patrols in the direction of Tiemulin must be strengthened. "
"Let's start executing!"
"Yes!"
…
"gather!"
"Tap Ta Ta Ta"
In a certain village in Hunter Territory, under the summons of the security officer
Extreme North Snowfield
The snowfield is still white, and it has been a while since the spring, but there is basically no distinction between spring, summer, autumn and winter on the snowfield, only cold and colder.
The white wind with snowflakes whistling constantly, this is a comfortable environment for the snow giants, but it is a forbidden place for most of life.
However, this forbidden area with almost no foreign life is a bit lively today. A group of "dwarfs" with a height of more than two meters are walking in the white snow. They are obviously not snow giants who have lived on the snowy field for a long time. Although the environment is harsh, it is a rare time to march on the snowfield.
Although the people in the team walked very slowly, they were very firm and had a clear direction and goal. After a closer look, there were thousands of people in this team. Everyone was wearing a heavy coat, and their faces were almost completely covered. , leaving only the small holes for the nose, mouth and eyes, carrying weapons on his back, and hugging his upper body as much as possible to resist the cold.
"Tal, how far is it from the Ironwood you said?"
"If we go on like this, it will take at least five or six days."
The person who asked the question was an orc who was even taller than the others.
