Chapter 280: Small Actions That Didn't Work (Changed)
Golden Dragon
It's been a long time since spring, and the temperature has basically warmed up, and the pedestrians on the streets are dressed chaotically, some are still wearing long-sleeved robes, and some are already wearing single clothes.
The market is still prosperous, merchants come and go, the teahouse restaurant is full of guests, and the citizens of Jinlongdu are always more willing to discuss and discuss national affairs, although most of them are just nonsense, but they can also be said to be lively, the top priority of these two days, naturally it is none other than the orcs in the north.
It has been almost twenty days since the orcs appeared in Hunter Territory, and at that time, Hunter Territory had a lot of caravans coming and going, and Richard did not deliberately make any news blockade, and a caravan returning to Jinlongdu passed the news a few days ago.
The matter involved orcs, which was easier to attract people's attention, and it was less than ten days since the first caravan returned to the Golden Dragon, and most people knew about the appearance of the orcs in the Northland.
Although the orcs did not cause much movement this time, they were quickly suppressed by Richard, and the destruction of the Northland was completely incomparable to the last time the ogre went east.
But the shock to the royal capital was far above the ogre's eastward advance, and even the small people of Shengdou felt threatened.
"You say, is the orc's appearance in the Northland true or not?"
"Can this be fake? My cousin's neighbor's son was working in a fur shop, and their caravan had just returned from the Northlands, and they heard that the orcs had tried to attack Ironwood, but Master Richard had led his troops to destroy them, and they waited for the orcs to be eliminated before leaving. ”
"Then it seems that the orcs are nothing more than that."
"! Who is Marquis Richard? That's the strongest man in the kingdom, comparable to the master of the dragon knight, if it weren't for Lord Richard's strong enough, I see, this time the northern land would be hanging. ”
"No matter how strong Lord Richard is, there is only one person, I heard that there are not many orcs who came this time, if there are more, will Lord Richard still be able to stop it?"
"That's right, what do you think the big people in the palace will do?"
"What else can I do, Lord Richard will be a dragon knight, and it's a big deal to order the River Valley and the Lancet family to support it."
"Just the bear of the Lancet?"
The last time the Randster family suffered a fiasco when the ogres marched eastward, it made a rather bad reputation, in fact, now the Jingbei army rebuilt by the Rantster family is at least the strength of the regular army of the kingdom, maybe a little stronger than the average of the southern army, but when you fail, no one will care about your former glory, only remember your latest fiasco.
Now the Randster family is a weak person who has been defeated by the uncivilized barbarians of the wilderness ogre in the eyes of the citizens of the royal capital.
But soon after, Richard led people to take off the two heads of Grugersh, and then occupied the other party's lair, and everything seemed so easy, and the Lancet family seemed even more useless.
"Or else? Do you really want to fight the orcs in the wild? ”
Fighting with orcs, in the general direction, you can only rely on the castle to pass the danger, this is the common sense of human beings in this era, and they have long forgotten how the human alliance army and the orcs carried out a large army on the plain in the era of Aragon.
The people of Shengdou are all from this point of view, not to mention the big names in the palace, even if it is Thor, he is not willing to lead people to fight the orcs in the field unless he has to.
"Your Majesty, I think that no matter how the orcs got here, what we need to do now is to immediately strengthen Zhenbei Pass!"
"Yes, the right minister is reasonable, we should immediately strengthen the defense capability of Zhenbei Pass, order the river valley to carry out reinforcement work, and then transfer a large army to strengthen the garrison of the river valley."
This is the first time that the big names of the kingdom have officially discussed the appearance of orcs in the north, and the two factions of the left and right sides have reached a very tacit agreement from the beginning, that is, to immediately strengthen the defense of Zhenbei Pass.
As for the life or death of the Northland, it is not within the scope of their discussion at all, because if the orcs can appear directly in the Northland, the Northland is not in danger at all, except that the weather is colder, the Northland is actually a miniature version of the Central Great Plains,
It is necessary to go all the way south to the river valley to have a Zhenbei Pass, which was originally not very valued, and at this time became the most mentioned place name in this discussion.
"You can send some supplies from the river valley to the north, and order the Hunter family and the Lancet family to hold on, the orcs should not have many troops from the extreme northern snowfield, maybe the northland can hold on to itself."
"Uncle Thor, what do you think?"
Wren didn't take a stand immediately, and asked Saul for his opinion first.
"Your Majesty, I think"
