The army marched all the way, picking up a lot of defeated soldiers along the way, and the growth of the team was just around the corner, but Hudson was depressed.

Ready, just wait for the enemy to come and attack, and the result is waiting...... Don't mention it, it's blind that he has prepared so many crossbow arrows.

In order to ask for these equipment, Hudson did everything he could, and reported to the king every once in a while, stating the pros and cons.

To sum up, you can compile a book "On the Importance of Miniature Magic Crossbows in Cavalry Combat".

Concentrated the power of the kingdom and got thousands of miniature magic crossbows, I wanted to teach the enemy a lesson, but unfortunately the other party didn't give me a chance.

The Beamon cavalry, who had suffered a loss once, did not dare to go up, and the commanders of the Lion Clan and the Silver Moon Wolf Clan were not fools. Knowing that the enemy is not easy to deal with, he naturally will not run to play a decisive battle when the troops in his hands are insufficient.

So much so that in the past two days, it was the Eagle Air Force that came to cause chaos for the army. The other three royal families were busy chasing down the Northern Expeditionary Army and gathering the scattered teams.

Even if Hudson took the initiative to come to the door, people could avoid it just right. If you want to have a sneak attack, first get the Eagle Man Air Force hanging over your head!

Without air supremacy, it is difficult to do anything. This wave he understands that the Northern Expeditionary Army is sitting on most of the main forces of the Alpha Kingdom, why is it still so passive.

Sincerity is not a question of hard work or not. Every move of the army is under the nose of the enemy, and if you want to do something, you will be discovered before you have time to implement it.

When all strategies and tactics fail to work, the two sides compete for hard power. Being able to divide the orc army in this situation and create an opportunity for the army to break through, Marshal Campbell is quite powerful.

It's a pity that the old marshal died suddenly, otherwise Hudson would definitely visit and communicate.

Vaguely, Hudson also sensed a hint of conspiracy. Under normal circumstances, the army commander is guarded by masters, and the probability of being able to break through is very high.

Even if you expose your identity on the battlefield, you can forcibly break through for a while, and you will leave immediately, and you will not stay in place at all.

The probability of encountering an orc master and being blocked is almost zero.

"Sold by your own people?"

As soon as the thought came to him, Hudson never lingered. The discipline of the aristocracy is very polarized, sometimes quite high, sometimes frighteningly low.

In order to weaken the royal family and betray the whereabouts of Marshal Campbell, it is entirely possible.

What's more, in addition to them, there are also some mysterious organizations that have also become black hands. For example: the July meeting that Hudson was exposed to.

The last time the assassination of Eucalyptus took place, the official murderers were orcs and the July Society. It's not just a pure dumping, both of them are really involved.

If you can collude once, you can collude a second time.

The July Club itself is a Northland aristocrat who lost in the struggle, and no matter how it declines, it has some connections. It's not a surprise to be able to get a position in the army.

"Earl, Kate has come to the Legion Commander to ask for an audience."

Hudson's words made Hudson stunned slightly. I almost forgot that he had members of the July Society under his command.

Even though "Kate Lai" passively joined the July Society, it was also the July Society's people. Now that I'm in the Northland, July will have something to do, and maybe I'll contact him.

"Bring him in!"

Hudson said with a pretentious pretense.

The sad look between his eyebrows still revealed that he was not in a good mood at the moment. His instincts told him that the matter was far from over.

……

"Earl, I have just received a secret letter. That guy Longxi, you want me to convince you to take action against the five dukes of the Northland to avenge the blood feud of the year.

They said in the letter that the five dukes of the Northland had colluded with the orcs, and that the orcs had instructed the five dukes to break through the siege. ”

As she spoke, Kate handed the letter to Hudson. The trembling of his hands proved that his heart was very hesitant.

The formation of the July Society is to take revenge on the five major families in the Northland. In terms of composition, Hudson and them should be regarded as all the way.

Looking through the family tree, maybe more than ten generations ago, everyone was still a relative.

The only difference is that they chose to lurk in the Northlands in search of a chance for revenge, and the Coslow family chose to go south, or the descendants of the Northlands have cooled, and only the southern branch survives.

Glancing at the contents of the letter, Hudson's face did not change in the slightest. It has never been a secret that the five giants of the Northland have ties to orcs.

The smuggling trade has been going on for so many years, and if there is no contact between the two sides, then there is a real problem.

Selling teammates for your own livelihood is even less of a problem. Don't talk about any principles, when it comes to life and death, few people can stay steady.

Compared with the operation of the Liaodong Jiangmen Group in history, they still have a bottom line. just instigated the army to break through, and did not cooperate with the outside to be a traitor and stab his own people.

"The evidence is insufficient!"

Hudson couldn't help but complain.

The aristocracy has never lacked black history, and almost all the big nobles have a bunch of rotten things under their butts. As long as the lid is not lifted, it is equivalent to non-existence.

If you want to hit the enemy with these stains, the biggest problem is - "evidence".

If you have sufficient evidence in your hand and choose a suitable time to take it out, you will not be able to eat as strong as the five giants in the Northland, so you will go around.

Unfortunately, the information in the hands of the Light July Society can only prove that there was a connection between the five major families of the Northland and the orcs.

This kind of crime is detained by ordinary people. On these big nobles, at most they will be a little criticized.

It is estimated that it was precisely because of this that he chose to take the risk of cooperating with Hudson, and took advantage of this opportunity to hack the children of the five major families.

The fireball flashed, and the letter turned to ashes in an instant.

"It's like nothing happened. If they contact you again, tell them, "It's too risky, I'm not interested in participating."

If you are entangled, you will say: I have not gained my trust, and my words do not carry enough weight. ”

Hudson said indifferently.

July wants to seek revenge from the five major families in the Northland, and he is also happy to see it, but he can take the initiative to participate in it or avoid it.

The Loonard family alone is enough for him to have a headache, and if he adds a few more enemies, it will be even more difficult to mix.

The high position and the large number of generals are all an illusion. In essence, Hudson's foundation is still very weak, and it will collapse if he is not careful.

The army under his command was improvised, and he obeyed the command because he was the supreme military commander appointed by the kingdom, and he could not be loyal at all.

……

After a long escape, the Northern Expeditionary Army had long since collapsed. Many people are running around in all directions, and those who have survived until now are considered fateful.

In the eyes of the orcs, there is no distinction between nobles and commoners, as long as the human race is the object of their slaughter. At most, when chasing the nobles of the Northlands, he deliberately put some water.

chased all the way to the present, and the aristocratic coalition of the southeastern provinces that gathered together is also not one out of ten.

What kind of southeastern province sends out strong troops, and any county is elite, and it is purely nonsense.

Really fought with the orcs, and everyone realized the difference in strength between the two sides. Mo said that compared with the elite of the orcs, even compared with the ordinary army of the Northland, there is a big gap between them.

The army of Laite County can fight, that is because the "Divine Bow Knight" has strong military command ability, and it is better to change the commander.

Although no one dared to say it, deep down, everyone did not criticize Earl Pierce.

Knowing that Hudson could fight, and throwing him to the Principality of Moxie, wasn't he deliberately pitting his teammates?

It was the unlucky Sith who drew lots, and if he wanted to go, he should let that goods go. If it weren't for Count Pierce's selfishness and deliberate release of water, the Sith, as the county guard, would not have been able to leave.

In the eyes of many nobles, if the "Divine Bow Knights" were left in the noble alliance of the southeastern provinces, it would be a different scene now.

Tough encounters with orcs, everyone may have limited abilities. But when it comes to the ability to hug their thighs, none of them is worse than the other.

When I think of the barons and knights who followed the expedition at the beginning, and now they are all mixed into legion commanders, it is endless chagrin.

There's no way, it's all the fault of being too close. As old neighbors, they all know very well what the current prestige of the First Regiment of the Frontier Guards, the original Lyteshire Regiment is.

Seeing a group of guys who are not as good as themselves, one by one, getting ahead, and they are still running for their lives, there is endless resentment in their hearts.

Earl Pierce was also very depressed about this change. I thought that a death mission was arranged, but I didn't expect that the damn ones didn't die, and those of them who thought they were safe were forced to the precipice.

has fled all the way to now, and the famous Crimson Knights under his command have been reduced by more than half. The private armies of other nobles suffered heavy losses, and there was no one in ten.

has been able to persist until now, because there are no ordinary people who have followed the team to the present.

The serfs were either buried under the butcher's knives of the orcs, or they were left behind on the way to escape and scattered across the vast prairie.

"Good news, Count! Fifty miles ahead, a large force of cavalry appeared, flying the banner of Earl Hudson, and the responding troops came! ”

The scout's words made the eyes of the fleeing crowd light up, and then their expressions darkened again.

Reinforcements did come, but not the ones they wanted.

is also from the southeast province, and everyone originally had incense love, but the love is greater than the benefit.

If the Coslow family wants to rise, it will inevitably expand its territory externally. All the land in the southeastern province now has an owner.

Hudson wanted to maximize his interests after the war, and that was to send them to their deaths. Shift and they will do the same.

Directly under the black hand, you may be a little unbearable in your heart, but you will definitely not have the slightest hesitation when you see death and don't save it.

"You've been in contact with Earl Hudson?"

Earl Pierce asked with a gloomy face.

Reason told him that Hudson might be able to tolerate other small and medium-sized nobles, but he, the boss, was a thorn in the other party's side and a thorn in the flesh.

"Nope!"

The soldier in charge of the reconnaissance said in a trembling voice.

No matter how sluggish he was, he knew he had just said the wrong thing. But they couldn't understand why the reinforcements were close at hand, and the nobles were still gloomy and terrible.

Hearing this news, Earl Pierce's expression softened slightly, and he waved his hand and said, "Okay, there's nothing for you here, let's go down and rest first!" ”

The atmosphere was tense again, and everyone was waiting for Earl Pierce's choice.

"After a short rest, we continued on our way. Estimating the orc cavalry behind him, he was almost rested.

If nothing else, there's a tough battle to come.

Don't panic too much, the kingdom has sent an army to respond, and there will be more than one team, and we will soon meet again.

There aren't too many pursuers behind, and as long as a few thousand fresh troops join, we don't have to be afraid of them.

Along the way, you can see it. The enemy has been trying to avoid casualties as much as possible, and the orcs can't afford to lose! ”
