Horn calculated that the three empires combined had nearly a million troops, and they had a three-to-one advantage over the orc empire. At the moment, he said: "In this way, we have a great advantage!"

Bradley sighed, "You're wrong...... In the southern invasion of the orcs fifty years ago, the orc army was about 300,000, and our side was about 800,000, and we won the war, but it was also a miserable victory, we lost 500,000 troops, and the orcs lost about 250,000, although the casualty ratio was two to one. But the 10,000 'Blood Beast Legions' in the orc army gave us 100,000 casualties...... Now there are 50,000 'Blood Beast Legions' over there, and if we convert them like this, we will lose at least 500,000 troops to those 50,000 'Blood Beast Legions', and what about the remaining 250,000 orcs...... This is still the best outcome, and if the situation is not good, there is still a possibility of failure, and then the time comes...... Hey......"

Speaking of this, Bradley sighed worriedly, worried and hurried.

Horn now knew that the situation was very serious, and he couldn't help but say worriedly: "In that case, why don't you continue to recruit soldiers? With the capabilities of our three empires, it is not a problem to continue to recruit one million." ”

Bradley shook his head and said, "It's easy for us to think hard, but humans have been able to keep orcs out of the Meddingbuch Mountains for a long time. So many people thought that this time would be the same. Although the losses will be significant. Many of the leaders of the other two empires have this in mind, thinking that we are just exaggerating in order to reduce our losses...... In the final analysis, it is for the sake of their respective interests after the victory, but this time is completely different from the past, I have never seen the orc empire send out so many 'blood beast legions' before, I estimate that these 50,000 may also be the last family of the orc empire, it can be said that the orc empire is almost out. ”

The more Horn listened, the more frightened he became, and he couldn't help asking, "Then is there any way to remedy it now?" ”

Bradley sighed again: "Actually, when the 'Blood Beast Legion' was detected, someone suggested it, but it was useless. Now the three empires are all under the constraints of the noble council, and our side is better, after all, it is directly threatened, and those nobles are not afraid to block the conscription, but the other two empires are not directly threatened, and have been arguing with His Majesty the Emperor. ”

Horn is also a nobleman, and of course knows what the nobles think. Although the emperors of the three empires are nominally the owners of the empire, in fact the territory they can really control is only the majority of the empire, and the rest of the land is completely occupied by the large and small nobles, who have to pay taxes to the empire, and the corresponding nobles can implement their own decrees in their own territory and do whatever they want. If the same empire wanted to fight, these nobles had to organize private soldiers to participate in the battle, and the salaries of the private soldiers had to be borne by the nobles themselves. This is tantamount to taking money out of the private property of the aristocracy, and if it is not a real threat to their own interests, no one will desperately dig out the family funds. Therefore, many nobles basically only send a limited number of soldiers according to the size of the title. Sunderland and Andrew were able to send so many troops, which was basically the strength that two emperors could mobilize.

Horn let out a long sigh and said no more. After all, there are too many things involved, and they can't be solved in a few words.

After hurriedly walking out of the mansion worriedly, Horn walked around Kayan City, the whole city was basically soldiers, tens of thousands of soldiers were not crowded in the city at all, except for the residence, many open spaces were piled up with various supplies, like a hill. Horn estimated that these supplies were enough for 10,000 soldiers to support half a year, but it was strange that he didn't see half of the civilians, and where did those civilians go? I couldn't help but stop a soldier and ask where the civilians went.

After the soldier answered, Horn learned that this Kayan City was generally inhabited by civilians. The commoners all lived in another place not far from here, where the real commoners and lords of Kayan City lived.

Horn was depressed and decided to go out for a walk. After asking where the civilians were, they left Kayan City and walked there.

Horn followed the soldier's instructions, and after passing through a tall arbor forest, there was a large lake in front of him, the lake was very clear, there were no fish jumping out of the water in the lake, splashing water, and there were several fishing boats fishing on the lake, as if it was a peaceful and calm picture.

Horn was immediately attracted by the calm in front of him, and forgot about his worries. I thought about how nice it would be to live so carefree every day.

Horn remembered for a moment and continued on his way. After crossing the lake, there is a large town, with many houses and criss-crossing streets, as well as the bustling crowds, all indicating that this is the real Kayan City.

At this time, it is noon, which is the time of intensive activities, and the shops are full of people and bargaining.

Horn walked into a tavern, he hadn't had a drink in a long time, and he took the opportunity to have a few drinks today.

When I opened the curtain in front of the tavern, I saw that the tavern was almost full, and I hesitated to find another one.

Suddenly, I heard a voice like a bell: "I'm having a drink...... No, a barrel of rum ......".

Horn was stunned, the voice was familiar. Turning around, he stopped, turning his head to find the source of the sound. At this time, another voice came, this voice was full of magnetism, and said lazily: "Ancient cave...... If you want a barrel, you'd better see if your purse bag is enough to pay for the drink......"

Horn saw a dwarf and a human sitting on a table in the corner, drinking a glass of wine that was already full of glasses, and a few tavern hostesses around him were not eye-to-eyeing and smiling at the human man. In Horn's opinion, these hostesses are still a little beautiful, but compared with Vane and Tropos, one is in the sky and the other is underground, and there is no possibility of comparison at all.

Horn shouted excitedly, "Ancient Cave...... Kyle...... Why are you here?"

The dwarf and the man were stunned for a moment, then turned their heads to look at Horn with surprised expressions.

The dwarven ancient cave was the first to shout, "Horn...... Why are you here? Have you found the magic tower? How did you get out of the Wailing Forest?"

These two men are the Ancient Cave and Kyle who went into the Wailing Forest with Horn.

Horn didn't want to mention it, so he said vaguely, "Found it...... It was with Ezreal and the others who came out. By the way, why is it just the two of you? and the others?"

Bronze said, "It's here too, but they're in the lord's mansion here...... Come on...... Horn, we said in the Wailing Mountains that you must have a good drink when you come out...... Hey, hurry up and get some wine...... In addition to a barrel ......"

Gu Dong said as he urged the hostess to hurry up and serve the wine, and he was very excited.

Kyle, on the side, was much calmer, still looking lazy and suave. He only came here to accompany Gudong to drink, although the two often ridiculed each other, but they actually had a good relationship. And you can come here to flirt with the hostess by the way.

At this time, he looked at Horn with a very surprised eye, and said in surprise: "It's only been more than two years, how can your strength improve so quickly? Do you have level eight or nine now?"

Horn smiled and said, "Level 9, just level 9 a few days ago, go to DuPont to learn art after you leave......"

Kyle was surprised and asked, "Is that the 'vampire' DuPont Piersberg?"

Horn nodded.

Kyle suddenly said, "No wonder your strength has grown so fast...... But I've heard that the 'vampire' tuition fee is not ordinary. ”

Horn smiled wryly and nodded, remembering that he still owed DuPont tens of thousands of gold coins. I couldn't help but say, "Don't talk about this." What are you doing here? The orcs are ready to invade the south, and you are too dangerous here. ”

Gu Dong was already a little drunk at this time, and said with a big tongue: "We...... We're ...... It's for this...... Come on. ”

Horn was stunned for a moment and asked, "What's going on?"

Kyle took over and said, "Two months ago we took over a mission to protect the lord here, Count Zeros Gregory. ”

It was the first time Horn had heard the name. But it's strange why this lord would hire them to protect the ancient cave?

Strange as it was, he wasn't interested in learning about that, as long as Zelas had money, it wasn't his business to throw money on the streets.

At this time, Gu Dong pulled Horn to drink, and Horn had to drink it with him. In a short time, the two barrels of rum that came up were gone...... Most of it was drunk by Gu Dong himself, and Horn and Kyle drank less than two glasses.

At this time, the ancient cave made a 'bang' and fell asleep directly on the table. Horn and Kyle looked at each other helplessly, Horn called the hostess, and after paying the bill, he grabbed the ancient cave and walked towards Zelas's mansion.

The Count of Zeros's mansion is located in the center of the town, and occupies a very large area, just like the mansion of the city of Kayan, completely baroque, with a high pointed cone-shaped roof, cascading bricks, and exquisite carvings.

Kyle walked straight into the mansion with Horn, and in the lavishly decorated hall were a few people sitting in the lavishly decorated hall, none other than Kampopuna Sanmei Brusto, as well as nine middle-aged men in silk blouses, satin pants underneath, and a mink coat over them, and a graceful middle-aged woman in a gorgeous snow-white fur coat.

The four of them were stunned when they saw Horn, but then their eyes showed a look of joy, and the old magician Popner jumped up first, shouting, "Boy, where have you been these two years? How did you get out of the Wailing Forest?" >
