I Want To Be a Nobleman

Chapter 30 Blocking Troops

The composition of the army in this world is also in line with the characteristics of the Middle Ages. The number of official soldiers is small and they are all elites.

There are only a few hundred soldiers in a territory as large as Marcus, but each soldier is well-equipped and has outstanding combat power.

The position of chief knight is not just talk, Marcus actually attaches great importance to Harold.

Harold was appointed to lead the most elite 50-man infantry regiment. He was accustomed to using two-handed swords, and his riding skills were relatively average. Leading infantry was the best.

The elite cavalry was led by several other knights, while the bald head offered to lead dozens of gladiators to form an infantry regiment to fight with Harold's elite infantry regiment.

Marcus himself was responsible for commanding the main force and giving orders to several of their elite regiments.

Although Harold didn't have much military experience, he only had 50 elite soldiers with him, so it wasn't too difficult.

On the first day Harold took office, he was convinced by all his subordinates. He is too strong!

Even without using any extraordinary strength, just 27 points of strength, 15 points of agility and +40 defense are enough to crush any elite soldier!

What's more, he also has powerful skills such as [strike], [running], [weapon mastery] and bonuses to weapon proficiency.

Now Harold can even fight trolls alone! His flame can suppress the regeneration of trolls very well, and his body attributes are not much different from those of trolls under the blessing of skills. He definitely has a chance to defeat trolls.

The elite soldiers under Marcus were about the same strength as those high-level gladiators. Thinking about how the troll beat the gladiators, Harold naturally beat many soldiers with ease.

Strength is the most important thing in this world, and nobles have a noble status because of their power beyond ordinary people. Harold showed his great strength and naturally conquered all soldiers.

After less than half a month of training, Harold was able to lead the elite infantry regiment to fight very well, and his attendants had also been upgraded one after another. The maids were still [Lukanir recruits] because they did not participate in the training.

And the five attendants were upgraded from [New Northern Adventurer] to [Northern Knight Attendant], their strength and agility reached 15 points, and their combat effectiveness was similar to that of the strongest high-level gladiator Stone.

After becoming Harold's attendants and being incorporated into the player army by the system, the five attendants have become very loyal, and they are not surprised by the rapid improvement of their strength. I have to say that this scares Harold a bit.

From [Character Panel] to [Item Bar] to [Troop Panel], the unlocking functions of the system are more and more powerful, which makes Harold more and more confident in himself!

One thing to say here is that Harold cannot check or recruit any soldier of the infantry regiment through the system!

In the game Horse and Blade, the player's ownership of the soldiers is completely controlled by the player, and the salary and rations are also provided by Harold, even if they bring these soldiers to besiege the king.

But the elite soldiers of the Infantry Regiment are all soldiers directly under Marcus, and the salaries and supplies are all provided by Marcus. Harold is just leading the troops for Marcus as the chief knight. Naturally, the system will not recognize them as Harold. Lott's soldiers.

The military training is almost done, and the land reclamation materials and personnel arrangements that Marcus prepared are almost ready.

There are not many people who are willing to go with Marcus. The speaker of the northern province, Marquis Harlaus, does not support land reclamation. The people are a little scared after knowing that this is treason.

Besides, they are just ordinary civilians, and their greatest wish is to live a stable life, and there are not many who are willing to leave their homes.

In the end, Marcus set off with hundreds of soldiers and their close family members, as well as a few ordinary civilians who were ready to fight.

The target is the eastern province ruled by the Marquis of Prague. Prague has established the Eastern Land Reclamation Alliance, and welcomes anyone who is willing to open up wasteland to join.

There are thousands of people in the team, two or three thousand horses and livestock, plus a large amount of supplies and property, it is impossible not to attract attention if it is so big.

It didn't take long for Marcus and his party to be stopped, and a group of hundreds of cavalry stopped in front of the team.

The leader is a nobleman, and the several cavalry around him contain powerful energy in their bodies. They should be extraordinary knights who have won glory.

The nobleman asked with an ugly face: Viscount Marcus, what are you planning to do? Are you relocating? You shouldn't have acquired a new territory, have you?

Marcus said blankly: It has nothing to do with you, Erfus! Get out of the way!

That nobleman was not a fool, he had already guessed that Marcus wanted to join the Eastern Land Reclamation Alliance, and now he asked the question just to confirm the answer.

The nobleman said, Does the old Marquis know about this? He won't allow you to go to the East!

This sentence hit what Marcus hated the most. He just wanted to break free from Earl Harlaus's control, and he didn't want to be someone else's vassal, so he resolutely chose to go to the East.

Marcus pulled out the sword in his hand and pointed it at the nobleman in front. The blade was already filled with flames. Seeing this, Harold and other knights also pulled out their weapons and put on a fighting posture.

Marcus said in a deep voice: I don't need his approval to do anything! Now, you can either draw out your weapon and fight me, or get out of the way!

The nobleman looked directly at Marcus's resolute eyes, thought for a while without continuing to stop him, and said, I'm not interested in going to war with you, but I will bring your words to Marquis Harlaus in its entirety!

After speaking, the noble left with his troops.

The soldiers under Marcus breathed a sigh of relief. Although there were only a hundred enemies, they would definitely win the fight.

But they took their families and supplies to the east to open up wasteland! It is best to minimize conflicts.

After Erfus left with his cavalry, they went to the eastern provinces without encountering any obstacles for several days.

The robbers and beasts had no time to hide from such a large number of troops, while the other nobles waited for the action of the old Marquis.

Finally, only half a day away from the Eastern Province, the old Marquis led Earl Salik and a large group of other nobles to catch up with Marcus and his party.

The old Marquis and his party have seven or eight nobles who have awakened blood, and there are more than 30 extraordinary knights. The troops are all elite cavalry with a total of more than 500 people. The combat power is far from what Marcus can resist.

But this is not a war, so what if Marcus's team is defeated?

The reason why they stopped land reclamation was to avoid the weakening of the kingdom's power, and the attack on the team going to land reclamation was also to kill chickens and wait for them to dispel other people's thoughts.

Now that the Marquis of Prague has taken the lead to call for it, King Hou has long lost its deterrent power. Who has the ability to defeat the Marquis of Prague who has stepped into the legendary realm?

If you can't be hard, you can only be soft. Marquis Harlaus and Marcus Marcus went out alone to negotiate in front of the troops of both sides. Harlaus said sincerely to Marcus:

Marcus, I have never treated you and Sarek fairly, but my child, the blood flowing in your body is the same as mine, and it is the blood of the great hero Erwin!

Marcus, trust me! I will give you back the glory and wealth you deserve, and you can also compete fairly with Sarrik for the title of Marquis!

Whether it is the right to rule the northern province or the title of marquis, it is all earned by the ancestors through hard work. It is my fault to decide that the next generation of successors is just out of personal preference.

Forgive me, Marcus, come back! My child! The land reclamation in the East is too dangerous!

What Harlaus said was really sincere, and his eyes were moist. After all, he is his own son. Once he leaves Lucanir to open up wasteland, no matter whether he succeeds or fails, it will be difficult to have a chance to meet again!

Marcus was also somewhat moved, but he held back his tears and refused his father's persuasion: What's the use of saying this now? I've made up my mind, and it's too late for you to say these words!

After finishing speaking, Marcus turned his horse's head and returned to the army. He didn't want to talk to Harlaus again. He was afraid that if he listened to it again, he would really shake his mind to open up wasteland.

Harlaus lowered his head in disappointment. He didn't really hate Marcus, but he just didn't like Marcus's overly tough attitude. He ignored him because he hoped that he would subdue him and respect him more as a father.

It's a pity that the consequences of the accident caused Marcus to leave angrily. Harlaus felt regretful, sighed, and took the troops back.

Salik wished that the rival of the heir to the title would leave quickly, so dozens of gladiators regarded it as a free gift, and returned with the old Marquis with his troops.

Seeing that the two main forces had left, the remaining few nobles decided that fighting Marcus would only hurt both sides, and they would probably offend the old Marquis, so they simply gave up.

Treason is treason, and the Marquis of Prague is treasonous, and the king doesn't dare to control it. They have no reason to fight Marcus.

Finally, Marcus and his party, who got rid of the entanglement, came to the Eastern Province ruled by the Marquis of Prague.

I thought this would be a paradise for pioneers, a lively and vibrant territory, but the desolation along the way shocked them all.

The group of them walked for a whole day and didn't see a single village, only ruins and wilderness, not a single person!

Harold asked: My lord, is the situation in the eastern provinces so bad? Isn't the Marquis of Prague?

Marcus understood what Harold meant. The situation in the eastern provinces was so dire that the Marquis of Prague was likely to be a fatuous and brutal guy.

If that's the case, then the pioneering alliance with him as the core is worrying about advancing!

But Marcus and the Marquis of Prague knew each other, and even went to the battlefield together. He knew what Prague was like, and explained:

The Marquis of Prague likes adventure and fighting. Although he is not very good at internal affairs, he can listen to other people's suggestions in areas he is not good at. I have been to the Eastern Province before, and it is definitely not like this!

After listening to Marcus' explanation, Harold dispelled the worries in his heart, but at this time everyone was puzzled, what happened in the eastern provinces, and it turned into what it is now!
