It's another sunny day,

Although the spring rain is as expensive as oil, but this time the rain is too little, and almost no rain has fallen in the past half a month, and it is not a good thing to have sunny days and days.

If it doesn't rain again, the spring drought seems to be inevitable, and this year's production in the north has been destroyed on a large scale, and if the spring drought occurs again, I am afraid that the next year will be even more difficult.

Only under Richard's rule, Hunter built a lot of water conservancy facilities, and the situation was slightly better.

However, these things are not something Richard needs to worry about for the time being.

Based on the reconnaissance of the Sentinels and Griffins, Richard had thoroughly determined the number and movements of the ogres,

A full 3,000 ogres rushed straight with tens of thousands of kobolds, frightening the small nobles on the road to huddle in the castle and tremble.

On the other hand, a slightly chaotic dress of men and horses is marching in the southwest direction, no way, except for the more than 2,000 people in the Flying Bear Army, the armor of the other lords is relatively uniform, the armies of the other lords are all dressed in their own way, but they can finally match the iron armor, and it looks quite powerful.

Richard decided to take the initiative after integrating several teams, this team was a little chaotic, but the combat effectiveness was still there, anyway, there was nothing worth defending along the way, and in the case of not necessarily reinforcements, it was passive to retreat into the castle and be fenced.

The road was full of ruined villages, but it was okay in Banderling, but not long after the ogre raged, it also plagued one or two villages, and the further southwest you went, the more and more people were displaced.

In this direction, many lords have completely abandoned their lords and closed their castles in order to preserve themselves.

Although there are many refugees fleeing on the road, they have not yet appeared, and the bones on the side of the road are thousands of miles away.

After all, the ogre plague has just begun, the northern border has been stable for so many years, and the civilians still have a little food in their hands, but this year's spring ploughing has been greatly damaged, and by next year, the food may not be enough.

Surrounded by a group of nobles, Richard rode the Western Frontier horse at the front of the procession.

The displaced people along the road basically did not dare to approach this coalition army, and most of them avoided the army in advance, and some of the brave ones would observe from a distance, and perhaps guess in their hearts whether these armies could drive the ogres away.

Richard also noticed these homeless people, and when he saw this group of homeless people who fled like headless flies, Richard suddenly thought of something.

"Quiel"

"Master Richard"

Quill was a little further back, but he could still hear Richard's call and quickly answered.

"Send some people to collect the outcasts, and guide them to Hunter Territory for Chief Iger to settle down."

"Yes, young master."

The development of the Northland was short, there was no shortage of land, and there were still enough wastelands in Hunter's Territory to house more people, and population and land were the foundation of a feudal regime, and Richard would never give up the opportunity to increase the population of the territory.

And he recruited these homeless people to give them a chance to live, went to the Hunter Territory, there should be some relief in the coming year, and there are still some chances to live, and now in the Northland, except for the Hunter Leader, I am afraid that there is no surplus food in Drifting Snow City.

"Alas"

After instructing Quill, Richard couldn't help but sigh softly.

"Why do you sigh?"

As soon as Baron Bender got on the road, he occupied a position behind Richard's flank, close to Richard, and even Richard's slight sigh was heard by him.

"Ogre are raging, and people's livelihood is difficult."

Richard's words can be regarded as a bit sincere, although for Richard, this time the ogre invaded him to the east and he was the profiteering, if there was no ogre to break the order of the Northland,

The Hunter family had no chance to expand their power several times, and he Richard had no chance to lead the coalition as a knight without a lord, surrounded by a group of nobles.

In the end, chaos is the ladder to the top, and heroes are born in response to the situation.

But Richard is not a hard-hearted hero after all, even if he has been trained quite rational in two lives, but looking at this group of yellow-skinned and frightened homeless people, he still can't help but feel a little compassion.

"Lord Richard is merciful! Under the leadership of Lord Richard, our army will surely win this battle. ”

Baron Bender still habitually touted it, perhaps with a little sincerity.

"Huh"

Richard nodded to Baron Bender, smiled self-deprecatingly, and cursed in his heart

"Hypocrisy"

If you ask the common people or the ghosts, you have to climb to that position before you are eligible to choose.

"Pass my order, speed up, and get to the reserved location and set up camp before dark!"

"Speed up!"

"Speed up!"

After Richard's mind cleared, the whole team seemed to be rejuvenated.

……

A castle to the southwest,

The castle has lost its original aristocratic style, and it is a scene of hell on earth.

There are no living people in the castle anymore, and there are terrible ogres standing around,

If you want to find the original owner of the castle, you may only find a trace in the boiling iron pot.

"Hello lord, according to your orders, the city gate has been completely destroyed, and several sections of the city wall have been demolished."

An ogre, dressed in fairly fine armor, sits on the steps of the castle hall and listens to his subordinates.

Ha Hao is the captain of this thousand people, and according to Grugesh's orders, Ha Hao took a thousand people and four small tribes that were recruited to the second district of the Bander Leader.

Having strictly followed Grugosh's orders, he largely ignored most of the human lords' castles along the way, but forcibly took a small baronial castle on the last stretch of the road.

It is also the bad luck of this lord, the location of this castle is just not far from the battlefield where Hello booked, and it is also very perfect to block Hello's back road.

In order to prevent being attacked by the humans in this castle during the war, Harry took advantage of the fact that the coalition led by Richard did not arrive, and took the castle in one fell swoop.

The reason for destroying the castle now is that the ogre is not good at defending the city in the first place, and the size of the castle is not comfortable for the ogre to live in, so he simply destroys it to avoid being used by humans.

"Where is that human army?"

"According to the kobold's report, we should be bumping into us tonight."

After all, the Grugersh descendants have been trained for a longer time, and they basically have the basic qualities of the army, although they can't be compared with Richard's reconnaissance methods, but they can still detect a large number of human troops in advance on the plains.

"Pass the order, tonight, let the warriors have good news tonight, and tomorrow they will fight to the death with the humans."

No matter how many tribes you use to destroy them, tomorrow will crush you completely.

Hello is very confident in tomorrow's battle, there are only 7,000 human troops, and he will have nearly 3,000 ogres under his command
