Chapter 113: Crowding Out
Just when Wang Xiaotian and the fat baron Dick were talking, the seven people in the center of the hall had already assigned tasks. Pen | fun | pavilion www. biquge。 info
"Alas, brother, if it weren't for my father's generation of losers!, I would have had an elite team by now!" Dick patted Wang Xiaotian on the shoulder and said with some frustration.
Dick is obviously a little nobleman who is not taken seriously, as can be known from the fact that he and Wang Xiaotian are sitting in the corner together, but this fat man is still cuter than some nobles, but he is not so scheming.
I just chatted with Wang Xiaotian for a few words, and now I will start to call him a brother.
At this time, the center of the hall began to be noisy.
Viscount Ron, lord of the Dominion of Karn, whose territory is located in front of a desert, is the owner of another remote road leading to the Great Wilderness, due to the harsh geographical environment, large caravans are rare every year, but some gold prospectors often haunt the Dominion of Karn.
And Viscount Ron's family has ruled this land for many years, although the harsh environment restricts their development, but it has created some special troops, therefore, Viscount Ron can be regarded as a relatively powerful viscount.
At this moment, the middle-aged tall and thin Viscount was sneering, pouting at Viscount Wood who was sitting opposite him, and said reservedly and contrivedly: "Dear Wood, I think the group of orcs you brought outside may not be able to complete this task, so let the half-orcs I brought complete it!"
Wood's face turned pale, and he was about to open his mouth to retort, but Viscount Ron didn't give him a chance to say to himself.
"The orcs I brought with me have defeated the desert trolls who have broken through from the northeast defense!
At this time, Viscount Ron's voice raised an octave, and he spoke in a voice that was almost chanting.
"This Orc has a whole Silver Guard!!A whole Silver Guard!What kind of power is that, enough to destroy any troll army!And my Orc friends have brought with them the tyrannical demon bulls tamed by the Orcs...... Hehe, trust my dear Wood, you won't stop my lovely orc friend from getting this quest again!"
Wood was silent.
At this time, the little fat Dick interjected at the right time to explain: "Hehe, Viscount Wood is going to suffer a big loss this time!"
"Oh?" Wang Xiaotian was moved, and looked at Dick suspiciously.
Dick glanced at Wang Xiaotian and continued: "The two families of Viscount Wood and Viscount Ron have been old enemies for many years, and this time Viscount Ron obviously wants to target Viscount Wood. ”
"You must know that in this cooperation, in addition to the participation of the nobles of our western provinces, at the same time, there are also some alien races involved, and these alien races have more or less the shadow of the royal family behind them, but on the surface, they are all allies of those Viscounts of the Great Wilderness!"
Speaking of this, Wang Xiaotian obviously hasn't turned a corner yet.
The fat man looked at Wang Xiaotian with a stupid face, and continued to explain: "In other words, these alien races have actually negotiated terms with the royal family, but on the surface, they are allies of those viscounts, and part of their military exploits must belong to these viscounts!"
"These days, as far as I know, there are three powerful alien armies that have been co-opted by the three viscounts. ”
Dick said with a slightly smug expression: "Hehe, let my brother tell you slowly." ”
"The first is the half-orcs invited by Viscount Ron, it is said that this half-orc has been living near the Dominion of Karn, and is considered a neighbor of Viscount Ron, but because of the naturally humble bloodline of the half-orcs, they have been suppressed by our nobles. ”
"This half-orc is said to have sprung up several monsters in recent years, a strong mess, in the past few years almost broke through Viscount Ron's territory, and then I don't know what conditions Viscount Ron paid, and finally this half-orc became his ally, relying on this half-orc, Viscount Ron has been very majestic recently. ”
"The second group is the barbarians invited by Viscount Shane next to Viscount Ron, speaking of this barbarian, they are a group of original natives of the Great Wilderness, holding grudges and being rigid, but it seems that they have also begun to move recently, many barbarian tribes have begun to go out of the depths of the mountains, and their cooperation object is Viscount Shane. ”
"The third team is the Viscount of Nice next to Viscount Wood, the ally he invited is the 'Green Fire Mercenary Group', this is a well-known mercenary group in the west, it is said that the leader of the regiment is a golden powerhouse, this time I accepted the invitation, according to the grapevine, it is cooperation with the royal family, and their head has booked a pioneer viscount title, and they are considered the mercenaries of the Viscount of Nice this time. ”
Dick said this leisurely, and Wang Xiaotian fell into deep thought.
No, the news is very wrong, orcs, barbarians, mercenaries...... There are even orcs under his command, what is this violet royal family going to do!,
They actually co-opted so many aliens.
Before Wang Xiaotian could think deeply about the mystery in this, the form of the hall changed again.
Viscount Ron looked at Wood with a smug look on his face and said, "As far as I know, Wood, the orc army you brought with you has been stationed very quietly these days, and the loose army looks like a group of hillbillies!
"And in this war, the miscellaneous soldiers have no right to speak! I think, it's better to let this group of orcs settle those refugees!"
After saying that, Ron also had a "I'm for your good" expression.
Hearing this, Viscount Wood's face completely darkened.
You must know that this war has been planned by the royal family for a long time, and according to Wood's understanding, the prepared backhand is enough to wipe out this troll army, which is a feast of pure military exploits.
And the displaced ......
To tell the truth, in the eyes of the aristocracy of this world, these untouchables are not valuable, on the contrary, with the influx of a large number of displaced people, it will even destroy the production of the territory and increase the burden on the territory.
As the saying goes, "human life is as cheap as grass", there is nothing more than that.
And Viscount Ron's proposal to the orcs to pacify the outcasts is a thankless task in Wood's opinion, after all, if these untouchables are not pacified, they are probably going to make trouble.
Even if it costs food and effort, it doesn't have much credit, which is simply a humiliation to him.
You know, the current western outcasts are all driven away by the trolls, that is, only wait for the coalition to defeat the remnants of the trolls, and then let the orcs accept the outcasts, what is the difference between this and being a miscellaneous soldier behind someone else's ass.
And now, the orcs are clearly in the same camp as Wood, and Ron is slapping him in the face by slashing the orcs.
"Let the leader of the orcs come out, and let him say for himself whether he is willing to accept and settle the homeless, or if he is willing to compete with my heroic orc friends for the task of guarding the Duolong Pass!"
Seeing that Wood was silent, Viscount Ron became more and more proud, and he shouted loudly.
It's no wonder, you know, Wang Xiaotian deliberately hides his clumsiness, and the Ink Blade Army is stationed in squads, for the Ink Blade, the training is all virtual, only killing and actual combat is the best training, therefore, they are all relaxing and resting these days, and to outsiders they look like a loosely disciplined orc miscellaneous army.
In contrast, the orcs crushed Wang Xiaotian and them in terms of their strong force and their efforts to defeat the desert trolls head-on.
In fact, before coming to Maple Leaf Fortress, both orcs and barbarians had amazing records.
The orcs crushed the desert troll army, and the barbarians destroyed a troll army on another battlefield.
And Wang Xiaotian's orcs, as if they appeared suddenly, for their record of hunting gold, Nick was only responsible for assessing, but did not notify Viscount Maple Leaf of Maple Leaf, of course, there are some reasons for this.
......
When Viscount Ron finished speaking, Wang Xiaotian stood up silently.
"Oh, the leader of the orcs is actually a human?heh, tell me, which one are you willing to choose?" Ron glanced at Wang Xiaotian, who had black hair and black eyes, and said contemptuously: "You can talk about the combat power of your orcs!"
Wang Xiaotian looked indifferent, and even had a little happiness in his eyes, and said calmly: "Lord Ron, the orcs under my command have ordinary combat strength and no brilliant achievements, so I choose to accept the task of arranging outcasts." ”
After listening to Wang Xiaotian's self-justification, Wood's face no longer darkened and turned indifferent.
Since Wang Xiaotian is willing to appease the displaced people, then let him be! Others don't know the combat power of the orcs of the Graystone Alliance, but Wood knows a little bit about it, just the Ink Blade Army brought by Wang Xiaotian this time looks loose and saggy, and the soldiers are very lazy.
But on the way to the Maple Leaf Fortress, these ink-bladed orc soldiers, to put it mildly, killed the monsters that stood in their way, and the attitude of treating killing as nothing made Wood secretly palpitate, this is definitely a terrifying killing machine.
What's more, the Greystone Alliance and Wood are not allies, and even Wood and Wang Xiaotian have a "Blackstone problem"! He is not guilty of defending Wang Xiaotian and publicizing his achievements.
"Oh, behold, our orc leader, how knowledgeable!" Ron said to the expressionless Wood.
Wood, on the other hand, looked at the table with a blank face, looking in a bad mood.
"Enough!"
At this time, the majestic voice of Viscount Maple Leaf sounded.
"Ron, you should know that among the ogre legions that Wood's Boer City invaded some time ago, there is a gold-level commander!" Viscount Maple Leaf's words contained a faint dissatisfaction, "Although Wood's allies are not satisfactory, but after killing an ogre legion of golden commanders, you should respect Viscount Wood's military strength!"
Viscount Maple Leaf obviously knew that there was a golden powerhouse in that ogre, but he didn't know that killing the golden commander was not Wood's handiwork, but Wang Xiaotian's record.
At this moment, Viscount Maple Leaf didn't bother to pay attention to Wang Xiaotian anymore, he said with a disgusted expression: "The orc leader, right! Go and appease the homeless, after the war, we will also reward you for your meritorious deeds, and you will be exempted from the future war meeting! Concentrate on following the rear of the troops to pacify the homeless!"
"Viscount Maple Leaf!" Wang Xiaotian bowed slightly, his expression was slightly silent, Viscount Maple Leaf's words seemed to appease Wood, but in fact, he told Wang Xiaotian that he would not come to the meeting if there was no major event in the future.
This can be regarded as an alternative expulsion from the inner circle of the aristocracy!
Obviously, it was Wang Xiaotian's performance, weak explanation, and the happiness in his eyes that made Viscount Maple Leaf think that this orc was really useless, and he was actually glad to avoid the war.
simply, let Wang Xiaotian be exempted from the future war meeting, and out of sight is clear.
