Chapter 123: Summons and Choices

"Lord Richard, please."

Led by the heralds, Richard came to Thor's tent,

The soldiers at the door intercepted Richard for a while and let Richard in, and it could be seen that these soldiers had some respect for Richard.

The army is always talking with fists, and Richard's performance on the battlefield today is indeed worthy of the respect of these soldiers.

After the soldiers on both sides opened the curtains of the big tent, Richard straightened up and walked in,

Thor's military tent was quite large, but the interior was extremely austereinely decorated.

There were only a few necessary tables and chairs in sight, and on the seats above sat several officers in iron armor, only one in the middle was wearing a golden armor, even if Richard had never seen Thor up close, he could recognize each other at a glance,

"Richard, attend Lord Thor."

Richard saluted Sol very familiarly.

"Sit down"

Master Xie,

Thor's tone was rather gentle, and it was hard to imagine that this was the Earth Knight who had just slaughtered on the battlefield.

Richard stepped back to sit down on a stool next to him after getting Saul's permission, and only then did he have a chance to look up and take a closer look at Saul.

The burly figure is resolute, and the beard is a little scummy, but it shows his temperament even more, and he is simply the hero protagonist in the model drama of the sixties.

No wonder Thor has such a high prestige in the army, and this appearance alone may add a lot of points.

"Richard?? Hunt"

"Lord Thor"

"Sit, sit"

Hearing Saul call his name, Richard subconsciously got up and responded, as if he was afraid of slowing down, and the next sentence became "This son is very ambitious, and he must not stay." ”

With Thor's strength, I'm afraid that even five hundred swords and axes don't need to be prepared, and one person and one sword will solve Richard.

"This victory is thanks to you."

"It's all Lord Thor's leadership..."

“…”

The scene was a little embarrassing, mainly because this battle was indeed not led by Saul, but more of a response, and Richard was slightly embarrassed by this lick.

Richard suddenly realized that he had been licked for too long in the Northland, and he was still a little unaccustomed to suddenly having to switch roles, and the licking skills were not yet in place.

"If there is no Lord Thor leading the army to contain it head-on, our army will not have a chance to surprise from the rear."

Who is Richard, he quickly answered another sentence and broke the silent scene.

No matter what Saul thought about this, Kuz and the others behind him nodded, as if they were affirming Richard's acquaintance, and they didn't really take all the credit.

"Don't be modest, what should be your credit is your credit, and your credit this time, it is more than enough to be crowned an earl."

After Saul said this, Richard obviously felt that the breathing of the entire big tent was a little heavier,

The barons and viscounts of the Golden Dragon Kingdom are relatively easy to obtain, and many knights with military merits can be awarded the title of baron, if the merit is greater and the officials value it, the viscount is also quite common,

But from the viscount to the earl is a hurdle, after crossing this hurdle, even if you enter the middle and upper aristocratic class of the kingdom, whether it is the degree of acceptance of the upper nobles or the size of the actual interest fief is much higher than that of the viscount, so it is difficult to be awarded the title of earl for general military merits.

Hearing the direct promise of an earl, the few people behind him who were originally quite calm were slightly red.

"Lord Xie..."

When it comes to rewards, Richard is not modest, at this time modesty is pure pretense, and it is the king to hurry down.

The title of earl was of average use to Richard, and he valued the fief more.

An earldom must be at least four or five times the size of the current Hunter's county, and if the place is desolate and the population is more scarce, it will be sealed even larger depending on the situation.

"Okay, the specific reward will be discussed after the war, and now I will summon you here to discuss the next step."

"Tell me, what do you think?"

Richard frowned, and made a thoughtful look, but in fact he had done his work, and quickly spoke:

"Today, let's rest for the night, put the army in order, and tomorrow we can march normally towards Drifting Snow City.

If my expectations are good, there should be no battle in the future, no matter how slow Grugersh's reaction is, he should know the news of the defeat of this partial division at this time,

No matter how I'm afraid, I won't dare to continue to attack Drifting Snow City, and when we pass tomorrow, Grugosh should be ready to retreat.

We just need to join up with the Jingbei army in Drifting Snow City, and try to bite the ogre all the way to the wilderness to prevent them from destroying it again. ”

"Hmm"

Thor nodded, obviously satisfied with Richard's answer, and immediately after the victory, he led his army to break through to the bottom of the Drifting Snow City to fight the ogre waves Thor didn't think about it,

But one is that the soldiers fight continuously, and the physical consumption is serious, but the risk is too great.

Grugersh can't afford to lose, and he can't actually afford to lose,

It is the safest choice to be able to oppress the ogre back into the wilderness first, and then exchange time for space, and gradually strengthen the wilderness defense.

"The generals will obey!"

"Your Excellency!"

This time everyone in the tent, including Richard, stood up,

"Have a good night's rest today, and pull out the camp early tomorrow morning, and gradually approach Drifting Snow City."

"Yes, Lord Thor."

Obviously, Saul's ideas and arrangements were in line with Richard's.

"Kuz, what do you think of this young man from the Hunter family?"

"He's a talented genius, but it's a pity that he didn't come from the Knights' Academy."

Kuz knew that Thor had a love for talent,

But he subconsciously added a question of origin.

"Alas"

Thor shook his head and sighed imperceptibly, his cronies Kuzi and the others around him were all from the Royal Capital Knights' Academy,

He has been in charge of the Knights' House for a long time, and he can be regarded as the representative of the Knights' House.

The original intention of the establishment of the Knights' House was to select some gifted children among the commoners to be trained, break the monopoly of the nobles on cultivation, and cultivate them into one of the forces in the court and the nobles' house.

It's a pity that it seems to be one of the human nature to assign huddles, and the knights from the Knights' Academy, a group of commoners, have gradually formed their own system, rejecting the officials of the aristocratic department.

In Kutz's eyes, Richard can be regarded as a figure of aristocratic origin, and he is naturally not in the same camp as them.

This kind of thing can't be avoided anywhere, although Thor can't get used to it, but he himself is actually in the stuffing game, so he can only sigh helplessly.
