Upon his return from Beda City, Hudson immediately convened a meeting of the county's nobles.

There were no surprises, and everyone greeted the Sith Viscount family.

It can be seen from the chaotic scene that everyone is really angry.

Hudson even suspected that if he hadn't been there, he might have been the target of verbal criticism.

The human heart is the most unpredictable, and it is impossible not to be angry when encountering such bad luck.

Although it was drawn by the Viscount of the Sith, many people are still unwilling to accept the reality.

In the depths of his heart, there was a lot of criticism: why didn't Hudson smoke it, but let the Sith be unlucky.

As for Hudson's difficulties, they simply ignored them. Every nobleman cannot be expected to be intelligent and able to see through the essence of the problem.

Good luck has certainly brought countless benefits to Hudson, but it has also brought negative effects.

For example, when it comes to drawing lots, the old foxes kick him out with reason.

As a result, I didn't go out, so I can't just have a hard top with the boss in the province for a lot, right?

Military obligations must be fulfilled sooner or later, and there is no way to hide from them.

Running to the Duchy of Mossi to fight, there is no obligation to defend the territory. For Hudson personally, this is not a good thing.

It seems that Hudson fell into the pit with the nobles of Lytte County, but in fact, it is the ordinary nobles who are really unlucky.

There was no obligation to restrain him, and when it came to a critical moment, Hudson could run away without pressure.

Personal safety is guaranteed, which is why Hudson was able to quickly accept reality and face the task calmly.

"Viscount Sith, why didn't you come?

Guards, send someone over to urge you.

How could he, the county guard, be absent from such an important meeting! ”

Hudson asked pretending to be concerned, as if without the Sith as a county guard, today's meeting would not have been able to proceed.

"Dear Viscount Hudson, Viscount Sith's convoy left Beda City two days ago, looking in the direction of the Northlands."

Hudson was not surprised by the result.

The military power was robbed, and the nobles in the county were offended.

If you don't run away quickly, it will be difficult to follow the army to the Duchy of Moxi.

Do you really think that the aristocracy is easy to mess with?

Revenge and revenge are the true portrayal of the aristocracy.

If he dares to follow him to the Duchy of Moxi, it is only a matter of time before the luck of Isis is killed by someone.

Hatred has already been generated, and this is not something that can be solved by sending a political signal.

It was impossible to escape, and the Sith was not so stupid.

If nothing else, he should have taken the initiative to sign up for the front line with his subordinates and join the kingdom's standing army.

In the face of the Grand Duke of Cavadiya, such a trivial matter, the military department should still buy it.

With a few hundred elites missing, Hudson is not distressed. Being able to get rid of this moldy god is the key.

Looking at the relaxed expressions of the nobles, you can see that everyone has similar thoughts.

"Baron Bazel, are you sure you read that right, Viscount Sith really took someone away?"

Hudson asked, feigned surprise.

"Your Excellency, how dare I talk nonsense about such a thing?

In order to make sure that the news was true or false, I also went to the city of Dadir on the way over. It is true that the Viscount of Sith is not in the city, and it is his butler who is in charge of the affairs of the territory.

It was learned from the butler that Viscount Sith was urgently called up from the front. Because the time is too urgent, it is too late to say goodbye to everyone. ”

Baron Bazel replied earnestly.

It's not that he wants to betray the Sith, it's that everything has happened, and he can't keep it secret at all.

Anyway, everyone has been away for two days, and even if everyone is on fire, it is impossible to catch up with the team now.

Calculating the time, almost as soon as he returned from Beda City, Viscount Sith led people to run away.

This decisiveness alone is not comparable to ordinary people.

Saying goodbye is impossible.

Pitted everyone so badly, if you dare to come to the meeting, you will be beaten.

An empty county guard can't deter everyone.

The anger came up, and the person was beaten, and he was beaten.

I don't know if I can come back alive, who cares about the face of a grand duke who is thousands of miles away.

Waving his hand to stop everyone's chatter, Hudson spoke slowly:

"Now that the Sith Commander has been summoned by the kingdom to leave, I will be in charge of the rest of the affairs.

The task of rescuing the Duchy of Mossi has now fallen to us in Laite County, and there is no point in saying anything else.

According to the kingdom's regulations, the minimum number of troops must not be less than 15,000, and they must also be elite.

There is no room for conditions, and without the Sith County Guard, the task still cannot be discounted.

The assignment of tasks is still the same old rule, and everything is carried out according to the rules of the kingdom.

Special circumstances may be considered as appropriate.

Minor nobles can not go to the battlefield. However, other military obligations must continue to be fulfilled.

Elderly nobles may serve in the place of an heir to the title.

These rules are well known to everyone.

What I want to emphasize is the quality of the soldiers, they must be elite, and they cannot be stuffed with any garbage.

Even if I don't pursue it, I won't be able to pass the kingdom level.

When the time comes, I will be caught, and everyone will be embarrassed, so I don't blame me for not being humane.

Don't be too pessimistic!

Going to the Duchy of Moxi is dangerous, but it's not a mortal mission.

It's right to preserve your family's strength, but only if you survive first.

Obviously, you can come back alive, but if you lose your life in vain because your soldiers are not qualified, it will be a joke! ”

Whether the younger brother can fight or not is directly related to whether he can win the battle. The first time he led a large army, Hudson did not want to be defeated.

It's not easy to erect a persona, but it's very simple to destroy it. As long as he loses a few battles, the reputation he has worked hard to manage in front of him will be directly buried.

If you really want to lose the battle, you must also create a tragic heroic image of "non-war crimes".

As long as the number of kills is enough and the record is bright enough, even if the whole army is wiped out, everyone will help find a reason to have to lose.

In this regard, the Alpha Kingdom can be described as doing a very good job. When evaluating the merits of famous generals, they all look at the achievements and casualties together, and do not simply judge heroes by victory or defeat.

They were all forced out by the orcs. As the weaker side, if you also mechanically hold yourself accountable based on the theory of victory and defeat, the kingdom will have no generals available.

In the face of the absolute strength of the enemy, being able to hold out for a few more days, or to say that the defeat is not so ugly, is already at the level of a famous general.

Every time the front-line generals are required to defeat the strong with the weak, that is purely a brain disease. Forcing to win will only create a group of adventurers.

A resilient kingdom that has survived countless wars is not destined to be an adventurous kingdom.

Rather than gambling on a glimmer of life, everyone prefers to play steady. Even if you keep losing the battle, as long as you delay it for enough time as planned, it will be a strategic victory.

On this steady guiding ideology, the strategic deployment of the Alpha Kingdom has always been conservative, and all battles must serve the strategy.

The only sacrifice is the reputation of the front-line commander. Almost all of the kingdom's major generals were piled up in a series of defeats, and even defeated more battles than victories.

The title of "famous general" can only be said within the kingdom, and is not recognized by the outside world at all.

Many people even attribute the fact that the Alpha Kingdom has been passively beaten, attributing it to the lack of "famous generals" in the Alpha Kingdom, as long as there are a few "famous generals" who can reverse the occupation.

Hudson was completely dismissive of this claim. Being able to be beaten by orcs for hundreds of years and still standing is enough to show that the strategy implemented by the Alpha Kingdom is correct.

According to the gameplay of the countries of the continent, either win a big victory or suffer a big defeat. The Alpha Kingdom has long since disappeared into the long river of history.

There is no way, the absolute difference in strength cannot be reversed after one or two victories in battles; But as long as you lose the bet once, the kingdom will be gone.

"Dear Viscount Hudson, the time for this mobilization mission is too urgent, can you fight for the kingdom and wait for the autumn harvest before going out?"

Kate's proposal to come to Baron was also what everyone wanted. According to the normal mobilization sequence, it will be next year's fastest time for everyone to go to the battlefield.

The sudden conscription mission not only disrupted everyone's planning for the territory, but also disrupted everyone's training plan.

Don't look at Hudson's words before, asking everyone to come up with elite soldiers, in fact, Lyte County can't muster 15,000 elites at all.

Even if the Coslow family is added, at most half of the elite will be scraped together, and the rest can only be filled with serf soldiers.

Considering the actual situation, it is impossible for the Coslow family to play stud, and the nobles cannot pour out of the nest, and the number of elite soldiers will be even smaller.

Elite soldiers are not trained in a day, but the autumn harvest is visible. Even if you are going to war, you can't forget the food in the field.

"It's a pity, Kate is here for Baron. The battle in the Duchy of Moxi is tense, and the orc army has completely occupied the defense line of Fort August, and the army is heading towards the city of Terence.

With the strength of the Principality of Moxi, no one dares to guarantee how long it will be able to hold out. In order to help our allies hold the line, we must set out as soon as possible.

You can rest assured that it is not only us who have sent troops to reinforce the Duchy of Moxi. The six major provinces in the southeastern region of the empire will all draw the troops of one county to participate in the war.

In other neighbouring countries, the Ministry of Foreign Affairs is also coordinating. At the very least, the countries bordering the Principality of Moxi will not sit idly by.

It is tentatively estimated that the total number of troops reinforced by various countries in the Principality of Mossi will not be less than half a million. Coupled with the existing military strength of the Principality of Moxi, it is still very promising to stop the orc army. ”

Hudson struggled to draw the pie road.

The reinforcements of the Alpha Kingdom are certain, and it is unknown whether other countries will send reinforcements and what troops.

The so-called 500,000 reinforcements are purely a random number made up to increase the confidence of the younger brothers.

It doesn't matter if it's true or not, the key is that everyone needs a heart comfort. Just a small amount of troops from Laite County are put into the battlefield, which is purely a drop in the ocean.

The slightest carelessness will be the end of the total annihilation. Even if the front line of the Alpha Kingdom is well prepared, the entire army of the formed county soldiers is annihilated, it is not unprecedented.

Not to mention the Duchy of Moxy, the army stationed in the defense line of August, except for a few noble officers who escaped, was actually killed by the orcs.

Such a loser's behavior has to be shocking.

The situation was special, and in the face of the Hawkman slingering army, the reinforcements could not arrive in time, which was just a self-consolation for the Principality of Moxi.

In essence, it was still not well prepared in advance, and reinforcements did not arrive in time.

As long as the defense line is recaptured, the city fortifications are used, and the magic crystal cannon and magic crossbow are used against the Hawkman Air Force, even if they can't hold the defense line in the end, they can still cause a lot of casualties to the enemy.

The rescue of their own people is so ineffective, once the guest army encounters a similar situation, who would dare to expect the reinforcements of the Principality of Moxi to arrive as soon as possible.

After pacifying everyone, Hudson directly assigned their respective tasks. Without the unlucky Sith, everyone's obligations are passively heavier.

It is estimated that everyone's deep thoughts about wanting to kill Viscount Sith have aggravated it a few points.

Fortunately, this unlucky guy knew the severity and ran away by himself, otherwise there would have been an accident on the battlefield, and Hudson didn't know how to end it.

It seems that killing the Sith is very relieving, but once a precedent is set for such a thing as Xiao Wall, it will be endless troubles.

There are a lot of nobles with grudges in this team in Laite County, and when they pinch each other on the battlefield, this army will be directly abolished.

After sending off a group of younger brothers, Hudson also took action. As a corps commander, he is likewise not exempt from military obligations.

The various branches of the mountain leader Gacoslo family need to bear a lot of military obligations this time. Even if Hudson used his power for personal gain and reduced his mission quota as much as possible, he would still have to send more than 5,000 troops.

When the family's private army goes to the battlefield, which people follow and who are responsible for staying behind must be arranged.

The nobles of each branch have fiefs, so there is nothing to say. Just pack your things and go out with the army.

There is no way to hide from a clear military obligation. More than 70 people were involved, and Hudson didn't dare to play with it.

……

"Father, you don't have to go to the Duchy of Moxi this time.

With such a big mess of the family, someone has to be responsible for staying behind.

There are too many things to coordinate when it comes to major branches, and Nelson and Evora are afraid that they can't control it. ”

Staying behind is just an excuse. The centripetal force of a family connected by blood is far more reliable than that of an ordinary alliance.

Especially in this critical moment of survival, everyone knows the importance of huddles. Even if someone wants to do something, they will be hindered by other members.

After all, playing with checks and balances on Hudson is a profession. The children of the family who defected seemed to be reused, but in fact, everyone's power was restricted.

People have selfish intentions, and Hudson is no exception. The future of this trip to the Duchy of Moxi is uncertain, and he is naturally unwilling to take the risk with Baron Redman.

In case of danger, he could leave others behind and run away, but he couldn't even leave Baron Redman alone.

"It's not good! Everyone follows the army to go on the expedition, and I am doing specialization alone, I'm afraid it will be easy to cause ......"

Before Baron Redman could finish speaking, Hudson interrupted: "Don't worry, under the pretext that I've already thought about it for you, I'll just say that I hurt my vitality when I cultivated."

If anyone has an opinion, let them come and talk to me.

Moreover, we are not failing to fulfill the military obligations of the kingdom. You don't go to the front, and Nielsen does it for you.

Even if someone goes to the governor's palace to complain, the provincial government will not delve into this issue.

Now there are a lot of things in the mountain leader, I am not in the territory, if you also leave, there is a mess in the back, who will be responsible for handling it? ”

Honestly, the one who can make him trust unconditionally is Baron Redman.

Others, even brothers, may not want to come back. After all, the foundation of the mountain collar is still very memorable.

Fortunately, these are troubled times, and even if some people want to worry about it, they know that without Hudson, the Coslow family will not be able to keep this inheritance at all.

"Alright! Since you've arranged everything, I'll stay behind.

It's just that the middle way to the Duchy of Moxi is two thousand miles away. Fighting in an unfamiliar place is not as simple as suppressing the rebels.

Hudson, I know that you have good military abilities and have always acted steadily, but I still want to warn you.

The enemy we are facing now is a vicious orc army, so be careful in everything and don't be a hero on the battlefield! ”

Baron Redman said earnestly.

Although he has many sons, Hudson is the only one who really stands out.

Even Nelson, the eldest son he is most optimistic about, can only be said to have great ambitions now. The problem is that ambition is one thing, and whether or not you can get up is another.

The nobles who can really counterattack are not only capable and ambitious, but also need luck.

After all, there are many capable people in this world. But most of them fell halfway, and few survived to the end, let alone successfully ascended to the top.

A noble child like Hudson, who rose to prominence at a young age, is rare in the entire continent of Aslanth. The weight in Baron Redman's heart is naturally different.

"Rest assured, father. This is not our war, and the main reason for supporting the Duchy of Moxi is to help them stabilize the front.

In general, this war is still mainly defensive.

As a guest army, our military tasks will not be too heavy. Some of the most important fortresses, the Duchy of Moxe would only let its own army garrison.

The fall of Augustburg was just an accident. The same mistake they won't make a second time.

As long as we don't go out of the city to fight the orc army, the risk is actually controllable. Even if the defense line collapses, there is a chance to retreat. ”

Hudson said with a pretentious pretense.

Confidence is a very mysterious thing, even if he doesn't have a bottom in his own heart, he must have a bottom in everyone's heart.

Having convinced Baron Redman, Hudson's attention quickly shifted to the deployment of troops. The elite must be there, but the remaining forces cannot be ignored.

After a long journey to rescue, the most important thing is mobile force, and cavalry is definitely indispensable.

Just thinking about the pitiful number of horses in the territory gave Hudson a headache. The entire Coslow family combined could barely scrape together a thousand horses.

Obviously, it is impossible for these horses to be fully equipped with cavalry. The mounts of the knights must be given priority; The war horses of the communication soldiers and scouts also have to be deducted.

These people must be one person and two horses, and the number of war horses will be directly halved. Hudson could only barely scrape together a cavalry regiment for the rest of the horses.

Walking out of the door to relax, looking at the cattle grazing on the hillside in the distance, Hudson suddenly had the idea of engaging in cattle cavalry.

Of course, this is not really a bull cavalry. Although the mutant cattle in their own territory have strong genes, they can't compare with war horses when they run.

The so-called bull cavalry, which was mainly considered for heavy infantry. Putting on heavy armor and rushing through the summer is nothing short of a disaster.

If you march without armor, if you suddenly encounter the enemy, you will become light infantry.
