Chapter 287: Richard's Arrangement

The Marquis of Waraya in the south

The Marquis of Waraya, who was nearly forty years old, was frowning at this time, flipping through a letter from the royal capital.

The surname Waraya has an obvious barbarian style, and the Waraya family was originally a branch of the original human barbarians, but after Aragorn unified all the forces of the human race and started a war with the orcs five hundred years ago, there was no such thing as a barbarian steppe man in human beings.

All of them are the vassals of the Golden Dragon Kingdom, and the Waraya family, which was sealed in the southern corner of Aragon by Aragorn, just has a surname with a bit of barbarian flavor, and the habits of the whole family are not much different from ordinary human nobles, and even because they have been in the south for a long time, they have been influenced by industrial and commercial owners, and they have also been contaminated with the habits of some merchants Compared to force, not to mention compared with the Rus family in the west, compared to the Lanster family, it is much worse.

"Herald! Heralds! ”

As soon as the Marquis of Waraya closed the letter, he shouted for the heralds from outside the palace to come in, and after a short while, a herald in ornate armor ran in out of breath.

"Lord Marquis!"

If this speed were placed in the army of the Hunter family, or in the army of the Western Frontier, it would be enough to drag people down and fight with sticks, but the Marquis of Waraya was only a little unswerving and did not say much.

"Order the Silver Shield Army to assemble immediately, and I'll review it later."

"Huh?"

"Don't go yet!"

"Yes, Lord Marquis!"

It had obviously been a long time since the herald had received an order from the Marquis to review the legion, and he was stunned for a moment, and only turned around and prepared to run out after the Marquis of Waraya urged him again!

"Wait a minute! Remember to change the fancy armor on your body, and remember to change to a lighter leather armor in the future. ”

"Yes, Lord Marquis!"

The herald is just a small soldier, and what he wears is actually based on the preferences of the superiors, let alone let him change into leather armor, even if the Marquis of Waraya asks him to change into women's clothes, he will not dare to resist...

Ironwood City

Richard also received a letter from the royal capital, and he was also entitled to know in advance that the Dragon Knight was about to become one of the top nobles in history.

"It's expected, but it's coming sooner than expected."

After speaking, Richard handed the letter in his hand to Morrill on the side, when Lint was away, Morriel could also play the role of strategic staff officer, and the Dragon Queen, who once unified Negan's hegemony on the continent, was also a strategic master.

Compared with Richard's somewhat angry look, Morrill was a little happy after reading the letter.

"My lord, this is our chance."

A stable kingdom is definitely not suitable for an ambitious person to play, Morryll's homework has been done well these days, and he is very clear about Richard's current situation and the situation of the kingdom, in the absence of external forces to destroy, the kingdom is actually in a very stable state, and it is a thankless situation to break the situation strongly, and now there is a strong foreign force of orcs to break the game, which is actually a good thing for Richard.

She is currently the most enthusiastic of all the heroes who are interested in Richard's expansion of power, except for Moryl, Ron is a little dull, Shiel is a complete joke, and Elena's words are completely righteous friends, and it is unrealistic for them to be enthusiastic about the expansion of power.

"If the orcs break through the Dragon's Breath Pass, we can completely wave our army to the south, quickly capture the Drifting Snow City, completely occupy the northern land first, go down the river, capture the north pass of Zhenbei, and take the river valley together."

"We also need to guard against orcs from the snow."

"The environment of the snow field is destined to not be too large for the expeditionary orc army, and we are fully capable of fighting on two fronts, and it is easy to take the Drifting Snow City and the River Valley."

If you put aside Richard's psychological factors, Morryll's line of thought is absolutely correct, and the unification of the Northland is only a matter of Richard's will so far.

With the current Drifting Snow City and the Jingbei Army that has not yet eased their breath, they can't stop the Hunter family who is now in the sky in the north, the Lancet family can't even take out a few big knights now, and Richard's subordinates even have several combat power of the sky level, and the two sides are no longer a level of power.

The Hunter family has not directly annexed Drifting Snow City now, it is nothing more than that they don't want to tear their faces with the kingdom, let alone challenge the existing rules of the human kingdom, once the orcs invade on a large scale, the kingdom has no time to look north, and this kind of thing is to challenge the rules, and if you do it, even if Richard does it too much, no one can do anything with him, but from the bottom of his heart, when there is an invasion of the orc enemy, he is suspected of taking advantage of the national disaster to strengthen himself.

And breaking through Zhenbei Pass and taking the river valley looks a little more troublesome than fighting Drifting Snow City, after all, it is also a Xiongguan, and the back is also backed by the rich river valley, but all objective factors cannot bypass the subjective conditions, that is, people, under the deliberate management of Richard, the commanders of the garrison in the river valley have long been eyebrows with the Hunter family, if it is really when the soldiers are in the city, how much will the defenders of Zhenbei Pass have to resist?

"Let's prepare first, deal with the orcs that may attack again next, and wait for the dragon's breath to change before moving."

"Oh, useless compassion."

In Moriel's opinion, even if Richard moves Drifting Snow City now, the kingdom will have to pinch its nose and admit it, this lord has ambitions, and his decisiveness is still a little worse.

"Then I need to bring an army, and the red dragon will also be under my command first."

It was originally a taboo for his generals to take the initiative to ask for military power, but with the dual constraints of the system and the system, Richard would not be jealous, and thought about it for a while:

"For the time being, you can only expand the army of one more banner regiment, you can choose your own people, and the red dragon will be assigned to you after I go to the royal capital."

Another 5,000 people, within the current tolerance range of Hunter Territory, Richard's original plan was to recuperate for a little longer, slowly encroach on some territory and population before making further moves, but now the plan can't catch up with the changes after all, and a big change is imminent, even if it doesn't have to be as radical as Moriel's idea, the action still has to be slightly accelerated.

"And Tar and the newly recruited orc legion can also be assigned to your dragon army, and you can train it."

Recently, through the special effects of the heroes of Taldu, many orcs have been attracted to join the Hunter family, and now the selection of young and strong people can barely make up two people, originally the half-orcs and humans are different after all, and they should form a separate army like the White Wolf Warrior Regiment in the Western Capital, but now there is a better choice, assigned to Moryl to the Dragon Army, Richard believes in Moriel's ability, so many strange races in the dungeon can be reorganized by her to become a strong army, five thousand human soldiers, plus more than a thousand and a half orcs, It's just a small thing for Moryl.

"Your Excellency, do you want to go to the royal capital at this time? Putting all your mind on a woman is not something you should do. ”

Morrill naturally knew what Richard was going to do when he went to the king, but now this kind of thing going to the royal capital is not very wise in Moriel's opinion, and the income from marrying a princess now is not high, and from the perspective of pure interests, this marriage is not of great significance to Richard.

After all, Messiah is not Wren's only daughter, and the previous brothers are several, and it is not Messiah's turn.

"If you can't even get the woman you want, then what's the ambition?

Power, I want all women. ”
