Chapter Seventy-Six: Departure

The inner sanctuary of the royal palace,

After the dispersal of the court, Wren returned to the inner sanctum, and many ministers left one after another, except for Thor who remained.

Wren and Thor sat opposite each other, unlike the dense crowd in the main hall, at this time there were only Wren, Thor and a few attendants in the inner hall,

Wren waved his hand, and several attendants retreated knowingly, leaving only Wren and Thor in the hall.

"Uncle Wang thinks that sending troops from the river valley can solve the affairs of the northland?"

"The garrison of the valley is unusable, and the nobles have not been at war for a long time."

Wren sighed when he heard this, although Thor didn't say it explicitly, but the meaning was also obvious, and sending troops from the river valley could not solve the problem of the Northland.

The situation of the river valley is different from that of the west and the north, because it is located at the confluence of the Xiaoling River and the Longjiang River, which is a critical location.

The royal family has never divided the larger nobles in the river valley, only some large and small baronies and viscounts, which has also caused the situation that the nobles in the river valley are almost scattered.

In order to ensure the royal family's influence and control over the valley, the kingdom set up a garrison officer in the valley and stationed a garrison corps of 20,000 people, who was directly responsible to the kingdom.

After all, although the territory of the river valley is not large, the population density and prosperity are almost not weaker than that of Jinlongdu, and the geographical location is very critical.

The kingdom must strengthen its control over the valley, and the valley garrison corps came into being.

But how much combat strength this garrison corps, which has been almost unfought since its inception, is unknown to Wren and Thor.

"Is it effective to call on the unknighted freeknights to go to the Northlands to fight and divide the Borderlands of the Northlands to raise merit?"

This is the second measure set in the court.

"The number of landless knights and knights without inheritance in the entire royal capital and the valley is about five hundred,

This time, there is a chance to be knighted, and it is estimated that there will be about 100 people who dare to fight for their exploits, which should have some effect, but it is almost meaningless, and it is not enough to calm the chaos in the north. ”

Of course, this is useful, no matter what, it is also hundreds of knight-level combat power, no matter what their fighting skills are, being a super soldier can kill and injure a lot of ogres.

"Uncle Wang thinks there is something missing?"

Wren was a little ashamed to ask at this time, Thor was an important minister of the two dynasties, the giant pillar of the royal family, compared to the courtiers outside, Wren trusted this uncle with the same surname more.

"One is that the freelancers are difficult to manage, and it is difficult to unify the command of the freelancers without people with enough prestige and strength to integrate.

If these freelancers all go to the Northland to fight their own battles, the effect will be reduced.

The second is that the high-end combat power of the northern land is insufficient, judging from the intelligence, there are at least four ogres at the chief level of the ogre this time, and there is also a two-headed ogre priest who does not know the depth,

The Lancet family lost two big knights in another battle, and in terms of high-end combat power, the Northland may not be able to compete with the ogre. ”

There is almost no great knight-level combat power among the freelancers who can be called to the north, and at this strength, they have either joined the royal family, or they have been co-opted by the big nobles, and it is impossible to go to the northland to participate in the war, which means that the high-end combat power of the northland cannot be strengthened.

And the shortcomings of high-end combat power have to be filled with countless lives, but it is likely that before the other party is filled, his side will collapse first.

After all, even an elite like the Jingbei Army collapsed directly in the face of the ogre chieftain who had lost the control of the Great Knight, so don't expect the garrison in the river valley and the free knights who spontaneously went north to have a strong will to fight.

"Then what does Uncle Wang think should be done?"

"I'll take a trip to the Northlands myself."

It is an absolutely suitable person to go to the Northland in person with the identity and strength of Thor,

In terms of identity, he is the uncle of the contemporary king, the dignity of the duke, and absolutely overwhelms the nobles and free knights of the river valley.

In terms of strength, Thor has reached the peak of the Earth Knight with a single cultivation, and is the person closest to the legendary Paladin realm in the kingdom in the past hundred years, and his strength cannot be determined to be the first master of the human race, at least the top three, and several ogre chieftains together will not be his opponents,

With Thor coming forward, it can also effectively integrate the freelancers who go to the Northlands, and it is impossible for anyone to disagree with Thor .

Thor's appearance to face the ogre who caused the scourge in the north is like directly giving the ogre a dimensionality reduction blow.

"This ......"

In the face of Thor's self-recommendation, Wren hesitated a little, he didn't know that Thor was the most suitable candidate, but if Thor went to the Northland at this time, there would not even be a dragon knight in the Golden Dragon Capital.

This time the ogre went east, and it happened that the orcs were making trouble in the Dragon Breath Pass again, which can be said to be strange everywhere, and if Thor was not in the Golden Dragon Capital at this time, Wren would feel a little unstable.

Although the Northland is important, in Wren's eyes, the safety of the Golden Dragon Capital is a hundred times more important than that of the Northland.

"Your Majesty doesn't have to worry, this time I will go to the Northland, I will go by myself, and I will let Asso stay in the Golden Dragon Capital."

Aso is Thor's partner for many years, an adult golden dragon, Thor plans to go to the north this time, leaving Aso to guard the royal capital, as long as there is a golden dragon, some Xiaoxiao will not dare to make any moves,

And Thor himself waited until he reached the valley to reveal his identity, quickly resolved the matter in the northland, and returned to the royal capital.

Wren was obviously stunned when he heard this, there is no precedent for the dragon knight of Zhenguo, the dragon and the knight to be used separately, and Wren didn't expect that there would be such a way for a while.

This is not to blame Wren, after all, inertial thinking has been formed before, and the dragons are all very arrogant, except for the knights they recognize, no one commands them, and over time, no one thinks about the dragon and the knight acting separately.

And apparently Asso is an alternative among the dragons, quite approachable, and can communicate with others even when Thor is not there.

After thinking about it for a while, Wren had to admit that Thor's plan was indeed the best solution at present.

"When does Uncle Wang plan to leave?"

When Wren asked this sentence, it was equivalent to agreeing with Saul's proposal.

"The sooner the better, it's best to set out today, and ask Your Majesty to give your ministers full authority to deal with the affairs of the Northland."

"Okay, Uncle Wang is fully responsible for all affairs in the Northland, and the rewards and merits are all drawn up by Uncle Wang, and the decree will be added later."

"Thank you, Your Majesty, for your trust."

After that, Thor saluted Wren, Wren never dared to accept Thor's salute, and this time he still hurriedly helped Thor up, and both sides were considered to have made a sufficient gesture.

……

On the same day, Thor carried the royal decree and took a few relatives to ride the wildebeest north,

The wildebeest is a species between cattle and horses, taller and more robust than ordinary horses, with much stronger strength, speed and endurance, and stronger than the average would-be knight.

But its temper is also much greater than that of ordinary horses, and ordinary cavalry can't be tamed, and only the strong men of the knight rank can suppress this wildebeest.

Of course, it is easy for Thor to subdue a wildebeest, a distance of thousands of miles in two days.

The ogre rebellion in the Northland made Thor smell a little unusual, and even saw a little shadow of the orc kingdom,

This time, he will quickly solve the affairs of the Northland with the power of thunder, and nip the chaos in the bud.
