Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 343: reaction and decision

No matter what name Li Cha was in, it was impossible to hide the news that he had taken over Snow City. The first person to get the news was the river valley next to the Northland.

The wealth of the river valley is inversely proportional to its military strength. The river valley, which is less than one-tenth of the area of ​​the North, has a population of more than six million, and hundreds of nobles, large and small. In this era, the population is already considered. dense.

It's just that these more than 100 nobles have long been commercialized. With their wealth and population, they act more like a complex of landlords and businessmen. Those who can draw fifty soldiers are considered powerful nobles, and even among them Some of the traditional castles have not been repaired, and they live in more comfortable manors.

There are only a few limited-capacity soldiers from the eleven families in Burleigh City. You might be able to get a few thousand out of them, but in front of the Hunter family in the north, it seems that there are none. The main force of the army in the river valley is still Dane. It was no secret that Dane had long been flirting with Richard about the 20,000 River Valley Corps.

After the news of Richard's annexation of Piaoxuecheng came, the big nobles in Bolai City were a little uneasy. There were four giant dragons, and Richard didn't hide them at all this time. It is time to know the power of Richard. Now the nobles in the river valley are afraid that Richard will turn against the kingdom, and they will suffer first. No matter how unreliable Dane looks, he can only keep urging him to return. The Imperial Guard on the road.

That's right, before the 20,000 Imperial Army that Ren decided to send to Zhenbeiguan to strengthen defense, Li Cha had already wiped out the orcs who invaded the north, but now they rushed over to guard Li Cha. The power to break through the river valley.

And Jinlongdu also got the news about the Northland. At this time, Ren even had a letter sent by Richard in his hand, and there was no joy or anger on his face.

"Li Cha, do you really think the kingdom can't help him?"

"I'm afraid we can't do anything for the time being."

Ren's tone was obviously not good, and only Thor dared to speak so straight at this time.

"Yes, my son-in-law has hard wings, and there are four giant dragons."

The place for discussion is not in the main hall, but in a small room in the palace. There are only the left and right ministers, and the absolute high-level officials of the kingdom, such as Sol. Most of the discussions in the main hall are just going through the motions and really decide the big things. There is no room for a group of people to talk about it. It is only a symbol of a few people who have reached a consensus and then let more people discuss it.

"Your Majesty, the most important thing for us at present is to deal with the crisis of the orcs. We must entangle the orcs at the front line of the Dragon's Breath Pass, otherwise the Central Plains will not be able to be preserved."

"I know, anyway, there is that kid Li Cha in the north, and the orcs should not be able to find a breakthrough. I have already transferred back the forbidden army that went to Zhenbeiguan, so let him go to the north."

The nobles of Bolai City still don't know, the Imperial Imperial Army they were looking forward to has been transferred back before it arrives.

"Speaking of which, at this time, Li Cha can stabilize the Northland and block the orcs in the Northland, which can be regarded as reducing the pressure on the kingdom."

"Hmph, then he is also doing it for his own benefit."

Although Ren was dissatisfied with Li Cha's actions, he was still quite rational in his behavior. He just ignored the affairs in the north and shrank all his strength for the coming orc crisis.

It was also Richard who got the character of Ren, knowing that Ren was a very rational king. No matter how he behaved too much now, Ren would not overturn the table. If it were a more impulsive king, Richard might break the rules. Also be careful.

"Then, should we reject the request in Richard's letter?"

Ren had let everyone circulate the letter before, and Zuo Xiang also knew about Li Cha's request in the letter. Not only did he annex Piaoxuecheng, but he also arranged for a marquis heir privately. What's more shameless is that Li Cha even sent a letter, Ask the kingdom to recognize his arrangement.

"I don't think I can start this kind of thing, just ignore it."

Although there is no way to get Li Cha in Jinlongdu, he has the ability to disgust him. Although Licha can decide everything in one word in the Northland, the Charman family in the Golden Dragon Kingdom for hundreds of years is especially powerful. Now, the righteousness is still with Ren. If they don't approve of Lint's succession to the title, then Lint, the marquis, will be so unjustifiable. Although no one in the north dares to say anything, but There is always a bit of legitimacy missing.

"But the Hunter family just won a great victory against the orcs, and they also successfully killed Geert, the orc's protector of the country, and now the human head is on its way to the capital. The greatest result ever achieved..."

Although Sol didn't finish his words, the meaning is obvious. The Hunter family has made great achievements, and the current situation is not suitable for beating. Sol is speaking for Richard, although Sol's reckless actions towards Richard are the same. A little dissatisfied, but from Wu Fu's point of view, he appreciates Richard very much.

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){} With Thor's words to remind, several people on the field fell silent again. Marquis, let alone a marquis, in fact, I'm afraid it's not too much to give a duke. It's just that Richard's behavior is too bad. He has overstepped his authority to exercise the power of the center of the kingdom. He closed his eyes, but the marquis was already the top noble in the kingdom, so it shouldn't have been arranged by Li Cha.

"Let the House of Lords recognize this Lint's title first."

In the end, it was Ren's voice to recognize the matter, and it was a set tone. Others no longer objected. In the face of the threat of the orcs, the high-level officials of the kingdom were still very clear-headed. This was not the time for internal friction.

"Let's talk about Li Cha Feng reward."

"This time, Li Cha acted recklessly and annexed Piaoxue City without authorization. The kingdom's failure to hold him accountable is the greatest kindness to him."

"Yeah, at most, the merits and demerits are equal to each other."

"The most reward is some money."

The following people all understand that the kingdom is actually quite embarrassed in the face of Richard's credit. Although there is still a duke above the marquis, in fact, the marquis is already the ceiling of the nobility. Since the establishment of the kingdom, the kingdom has a total of Two dukes have been sealed, one is the family of Duke Ross, one of the three founding knights, and the other is Sol, the dragon knight of the town who is present.

The Duke of the Ross family is for historical reasons, and Sol's Dukeship can be regarded as an honorary title to some extent. He does not have an actual fief like the Ross family.

If you really want to transfer the title based on merit, you can only give Richard the title of duke. A duke with tens of thousands of people and hundreds of thousands of people with armor? The center has an instinctive rejection of this kind of thing. It is enough for the kingdom to have a Duke of the West. Moreover, this Richard is not too observant. Now Saul has not spoken to help, just waiting for Ren to decide.

Unexpectedly, after thinking about it for a while, Ren said a decision that surprised everyone.

"Elevate Richard's title to Duke, add the title of guardian of the North, and command all the military forces in the North and the River Valley."

"This?"

Everyone thought that they had heard it wrong, and it was considered an exception to give to the Duke, but it was also worthy of the credit of Richard, but they were a little confused about the operation of packing the river valley to Richard.

"Your Majesty, the river valley is the barrier between the Central Plains and the North. I'm afraid it would be inappropriate to hand it over to Richard."

After confirming that he did not have auditory hallucinations, some people quickly stood up against this seemingly absurd decision.

"Yeah, Zhenbei Pass is a great pass that divides the north and the south. If Richard takes the river valley, no one can check and balance it."

If this remark is a bit more cruel, it is that if Li Cha has any intention of being disobedient, it is much easier to go south from the river valley to the Central Plains than from the north. Comparing the central Great Plains of the royal capital with the south, the wealth of the river valleys is nothing, but it cannot be given to Li Cha for nothing.

But Saul seemed to have thought of something, frowned and didn't speak.

"Kingdom has a lot of military merit, and it should be rewarded even more at a time like this, no need to say more."

"This…"

"Let the House of Lords discuss the merits, and send someone to prepare for the award."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

That is to say, the authority of the King of the Golden Dragon Kingdom is strong enough. Although the following people still objected, but after Ren really made a decision, he did not dare to continue to oppose it. Saul remained silent. The rest of the people thought that the uncle and nephew had reached a tacit understanding, and they dared not say anything.

"Okay, Uncle Sol stay for a while, and the others can leave first if they have nothing to do. We will announce the matter in the hall tomorrow."

Hearing that Ren left Sol alone, the others resigned very wisely.

After everyone left the room, Ren could say:

"Uncle Saul thinks it is possible for Richard to send troops to join the Eastern Expedition plan?"

The Eastern Expedition Plan was a plan secretly made by Sol and Ren, to launch a raid from the east of the Dragon's Breath Guandong while the dragon was still there. The orcs were caught off guard and at least won a local victory, delaying the attack of the orcs.

Originally, the scope of knowledge of this plan was very small. Only Ren, Sol, and one or two senior military officials involved knew about it. They were strictly kept secret from others. It was originally a military adventure, and they wanted to rush away before the dragon left. Before launching an attack, it is natural to prevent leaks and let the orcs take precautions in advance.

try{mad1(\'gad2\');}catch(ex){} The concentration of money and food and the mobilization of the army are also based on strengthening the defense of the Dragon's Breath Pass, which makes sense even when the orcs are intimidating at every step.

At the beginning, this plan did not involve Li Cha. Even though Li Cha showed the power of the sky and had a giant dragon at that time, there were too many doubts about Li Cha. There are more than two million elites, and they can't take any risks in the grand plan of the country's fortune.

But now Ren is obviously willing to let Li Cha participate again. First, the power shown in Li Cha's hands is indeed enough. The four giant dragons, as well as the giant beasts and mysterious powerhouses that have appeared in the south, from high-end In terms of power, if you exclude the master Qing in the palace, Li Cha's high-end power is stronger than that of the entire kingdom.

Second, this time, Li Cha not only eliminated the three armies of the orcs, but also killed Geert, one of the two orcs' two guardian warriors. It is impossible for him to be a spy, at least when it comes to targeting the orcs. , Richard is trustworthy. If there is Li Cha with the elites and dragons from the north to fight, then the probability of success in this adventure plan of the Eastern Expedition should be much higher.

The crux of the question now is how to get Li Cha to send troops. The current Li Cha is not something that Renn can call with an order. There must be enough interests to make Li Cha be moved.

Sol was not surprised by Ren's opening. When Ren was so generous in giving the title to the title and returning the land to the river valley, Sol probably guessed Ren's idea.

Noble titles and titles are things that are rhetorical and unrealistic. For a kingdom that has to fully defend against orcs, it will be sealed out, but Renn directly draws the river valley into Richard's sphere of influence. It is worth pondering. .

To rule out the possibility that Ren is an idiot, there must be a purpose. The river valley is the benefit Ren can take out, in exchange for Li Cha to send troops to participate in the Eastern Expedition.

As for the interests of the nobles in the river valley, it is not in Ren's consideration at all now. How much interests they and Richard can compete for depends on their respective abilities.

"I'm not sure, but there is a possibility."

Li Cha's rise is too fast. Sol actually doesn't understand Li Cha. Li Cha was a responsible and capable young noble in Sol's eyes at first, but now he has become a vassal of a separate party. To be honest He was a little unsure whether this young man who acted like a jester in front of him would agree.

"It's alright, Uncle Sol will go to the north this time, and test it with the order of the title. If he agrees to send troops, what about the river valley."

"Yes, Your Majesty."

South

Posey City

Paley is in a good mood these days. Since the last successful expedition to the sea clan's mussel field, the sea clan has indeed become a lot more honest~www.readwn.com~ With the prestige of the victory, Paley has also completely overwhelmed the inner city of Bosie. The nobles of the family, and even the original thorn-headed Warayahou Mansion, have also entered into a state of cooperation with Paley since the expedition.

The trade volume has been rising steadily, and the resources and power in his hands have also grown steadily over time. As long as there is enough time, he can use Bosie City as the center to accumulate enough advantages in the south for the possible future throne. Fight for power.

Unfortunately, as the orc crisis is approaching, the focus of all this has to shift to preventing orcs.

What he thinks the most in his spare time now is if the orcs take the Central Plains, how can he resist in the south, should he retreat into the swamp to join the trolls?

Thinking of this possibility, Paley had goosebumps all over his body, and the wine glass in his hand was a little unstable.

"Master Paley, there is news from the North."

"Oh? Did Li Cha do something big again?"

When Paley heard that it was information from the North, he subconsciously thought of Richard.

"The Hunter family occupied Snow City and supported Lint to become the new marquis."

"It's hard for him to endure the fat around his mouth for so long."

Paley was not surprised at all, but felt that Richard's movements were slower than he expected.

He didn't have the kind of consciousness as a contender for the throne of the Charlman family, and he didn't have any mood swings about Richard's ambitious behavior.

In the future, it is hard to say whether this kingdom belongs to the Charlman family or not. Richard is strong, which seems to be a good thing now.
