Chapter Seventy-Five: Deliberations

As the temperature rises, the snow on the snow-capped mountains in the far north begins to melt, flowing through the vast ironwood forests, injecting a large amount of water into the Xiaoling River, which then flows into the river valley and finally merges into the Jinlong River, bringing sufficient water to the Central Great Plains, the most elite territory of mankind.

Seeing that it was another good year, the nobles and landlords on the central plain were smiling.

And with the arrival of spring, everything has recovered, the willows in the royal capital have drawn new shoots, and the streets seem to have prospered a lot, and even the business of the warblers on the street corners has improved.

The erosion situation in the north did not affect the royal capital at all, and what happened thousands of miles away had little impact on the small people, and not too many people would care, at this time, the theaters and taverns in the royal capital were still full, and the entire royal capital was a peaceful scene of singing and dancing.

……

The Royal Palace, the Golden Dragon Palace.

"What do you think should be done about the Northland's request for help?"

The military report and letter for help from the Northland were delivered to the Golden Dragon Capital yesterday.

Although the kingdom has gone downhill, it still hasn't rotted to the roots, and although King Wren has not shown any qualifications as a Ming Emperor, he can be regarded as a qualified monarch.

The day after the information was verified, the courtiers were summoned and began to discuss the matter of the Northland.

"The Lancet family has the responsibility to defend the land, and they can't stop the ogre, which caused the erosion of the northland, and there are more than five nobles who were tragically destroyed, and they should be punished!"

At this time, an elder of the House of Nobles stood up and said indignantly, in the eyes of this elder, I don't know how many civilians have died, and I don't care, but it is terrifying to kill so many nobles.

However, as soon as his words fell, he attracted a strange look, the kind of look at a fool, even the representative of the House of Nobles, Zuo Xiang, bowed his head, and felt extremely embarrassed.

And Wren, who was sitting on the throne, couldn't help but hold his forehead, this kind of aristocratic dean with granite in his head made him cry and laugh with a word,

Even if the Lanster family is at fault, it is impossible to punish the crime now, and he wants to ask how to deal with the ogres who invaded the east, not how to deal with the Lanster family.

"We'll talk about that later, let's talk about how to deal with ogres first."

Although this elder is a little confused, he has a very high rank and the strength of a great knight, and Wren doesn't want to lose face too much.

Simply skip the topic raised by the other party and go straight to the discussion about how to deal with the ogre.

"Your Majesty, the minister thinks that he should directly dispatch the dragon knights of Zhenguo to quell the ogre with the power of thunder, and then order the Lancet family to pay for money and food."

It was the right minister who stood up and spoke, and this sound much more reliable than the old fool of the previous elders' house,

The Golden Dragon Kingdom is surrounded by enemies on all sides, the southern Linhai Naga are often harassed, the orcs in the eastern plateau want to fight back all the time, and the lizardmen in the western desert also cause some trouble to the lords in the west from time to time.

Only the northern land is still stable, and now there is a big mess,

Originally, the local lords had the obligation to pay taxes to the royal family and obey the royal family in wartime, and the royal family also had the responsibility to provide assistance to the local lords in times of crisis.

There are precedents for dragon knights to be dispatched in crises such as the Lizardmen Riot in the West and the Naga in the South taking over the port, and as soon as the dragon knights make a move, the basic matter is solved.

With these precedents, it is reasonable for the right minister to propose to let the dragon knights of Zhenguo be dispatched, and it is indeed a plan worth considering.

"No way!"

Before Wren could speak, the military had already stepped forward to interrupt.

"Your Majesty, a few days ago, the orcs moved frequently in the Dragon Breath Pass, in order to protect the Dragon Breath Pass, the Luxon Knight has gone to the Dragon Breath Pass, and now there is only one dragon knight left in the Golden Dragon Capital."

"So coincidentally?"

The meaning of the military's words Wren understands that when there is only one dragon knight in the Golden Dragon Capital, it is not appropriate for the dragon knight to go out.

The king must have a dragon knight in charge, so that everyone can sleep soundly at night.

The Golden Dragon Kingdom was originally arranged by two dragon knights in the royal capital, and the three dragon knights guarded the Dragon Rest Pass together.

The dragon knights in the royal capital generally play the role of guarding the royal capital, and are ready to support or suppress the Quartet.

The dragon knight Lu Sen, who can now maneuver, has been sent to the Dragon Breath Pass because of the previous abnormal movement of the orcs outside the Dragon Breath Pass.

Now there is only Thor, a dragon knight, left in the royal capital, and in everyone's opinion, he can't leave the royal capital at will.

"Then it's better to directly dispatch the Praetorian Guard to the north, the Praetorian Guard has not fought for a long time, and the Praetorian Guard can solve the dilemma in the north first, and the combat strength of the Praetorian Guard can also be tested."

It was the military officials who proposed, and the Praetorian Guard was full of a large number of freelancers who had no titles to inherit, eager to make meritorious contributions to the knighthood, and had a certain desire to fight, and it was not completely rotten.

"No, the Praetorian Guard went north, completely against the Longjiang River, and it was difficult to transfer materials, from the royal capital to the north, it was not enough to support the army to go north."

It was the official who managed the money and grain who stood up to oppose it, and as soon as he heard that the 100,000-mile expedition of the forbidden army was going to be dropped, his scalp was numb, and he quickly stood up to oppose it.

"Oh? How did I hear that the treasury is full of supplies, and it is still planning to expand because it can't fit it? ”

"That's the supplies for the Dragon's Breath, do you want to embezzle?"

As soon as he heard this, the officials of the military department immediately stopped answering, in the Golden Dragon Kingdom, guarding the dragon's rest pass, and guarding against orcs is always the first priority.

He didn't dare to open his mouth to move the spare supplies of the Dragon Breath Pass.

Wren leaned on the throne above and frowned, these people discussed for a long time, but they couldn't come up with a practical plan, so they only let him worry about it together.

But the Northland cannot be left alone, and the kingdom cannot let the Northland rot.

"Your Majesty, the valley is close to the Northlands, and I thought I could order the garrison of the valleys to organize the nobles of the valleys to form an alliance to support the Northlands.

With the title of knight, he called on all knights and freelancers to go north to fight, so that even if they could not completely expel the ogre, they could relieve the pressure on the north. ”

It was the Right Prime Minister who made the suggestion, which at first glance sounded feasible and acceptable to all parties, and was quickly echoed.

"I think it works."

"Seconded."

……

"Then let's do it first."

Wren thought about it and felt that this plan was indeed feasible, so he nodded and agreed to the right minister's proposal.

But after all, the royal capital is too far away from the river valley, and it is difficult for them to understand the real combat effectiveness of the garrison and nobles in the river valley, and they don't know how lax the armament of the river valley is in such a comfortable place.

If Lint wants to choose, he would rather ask for support materials from the valley than the army at the bottom of the valley to help in the battle, which is really not guaranteed in combat effectiveness
