That’s Hilarious - Chapter 162

“This is very riding and cutting novels ( to find the latest chapter!

In the duty of the imperial soldiers, the citizens have been given a fairer environment, and after a year of stability, the Carney Territory has slowly recovered.

Carney Territory is no longer a territory supported only by iron ore. Of course, commercial taxes have also risen sharply. Of course, there are deductions, and the more serious thing is the exploitation of merchants from top and bottom.

What is even more incomprehensible is that such things are the norm, or even a rule.

It is called the reward of nobles to their subordinates.

But it is precisely because of this that after the imperial soldiers took over the checkpoints and city gates, the business environment of Carney led more and more businessmen were willing to come here.

The news that Duke Osborn had recruited all the nobles in the north, including the nobles in the south and all the mercenaries, quickly spread throughout the kingdom, driven by interests.

It caused a wave of discussion about the North, and even the threat of the orcs was put in front of everyone.

……

Roland’s first reaction when he received the letter was disbelief, and he urgently summoned all his companions to discuss the matter in the hall, of course Aveline was among them.

After everyone had arrived, Roland handed Duke Osborn’s letter to them for viewing. After everyone read it, his brows furrowed unconsciously.

The above things seem very reasonable, but after combining with the current situation of the kingdom, it seems very unreasonable, which is far beyond their expectations.

In Roland’s view, this is more like a document ready to declare war on the king, but such an upright attitude, or a menacing attitude, makes him a little uncertain.

There is no such way, very suspicious.

Roland was very aware of his opinions on the Rhode family, and worried that his own considerations would be biased, so he called everyone to discuss.

After he put forward his own views, everyone also expressed the same views, which was of no use except to make Roland more puzzled.

Of course he had considered the threat of the orcs, but the tallness of the Northwind Fortress still left a deep impression on him, and he did not think the orcs could climb over it.

Not just him, but an inherent image cultivated in the hearts of all human beings.

He was even considering whether to follow Duke Osborne and challenge the rule of the Rhodes family.

Of course, this is just thinking, and any decision without clear information will have serious consequences.

But another question jumped into their minds, that is, in the face of such behavior, Kernell will inevitably prevent more mercenaries from coming to the North. Does the entire North really have the strength to challenge the entire kingdom?

The Osborn family has been guarding the Northwind Fortress for nearly 300 years. Are they really going to challenge the Rhode family when this orc is coming?

Is this reasonable? This is obviously unreasonable, but how to explain all this.

Two thoughts popped into Roland’s mind, that is, the Osborn family intends to bring in the orcs, or the orcs have gained a power they think is irresistible.

It is only in these two cases that all this can be explained.

It’s just that the first idea was just raised, and everyone stared back with a strange look. Aveline even put her hand on his forehead to see if his brain was burned out.

Only then did Roland put away his thoughts. Although there were many people who brought in aliens in his history, at least those were still humans, and these were indeed orcs.

No matter how human beings are, they will not collude with aliens like this, and the orcs will not regard such people as human beings, and they will even slaughter the Osborn family first after entering the customs.

Because the Osborn family is inherited from the First Empire and has participated in the war against the orcs, their hatred with the orcs will never end, at least until one party is wiped out.

Then there is only the second possibility, the orcs have gained their unstoppable power, and there is no explanation in the letter, it can only be said that this is a guess, or no one believes it at all.

The only way to explain why they did not explain, but chose to use this method to warn His Majesty and prepare them for battle.

After hearing about the legendary creatures mentioned by Baron Lyon, a word popped into Roland’s mind immediately, that is Goron, and only Goron can make the Osborn family feel irresistible.

After hearing the news, everyone fell silent. They had also heard of this creature more or less. If such a creature, perhaps North Wind Fortress would be really difficult to resist.

If they choose to go south, they will inevitably be blocked by the strictly guarded Rhodes family, and they are strictly prohibited from crossing the border.

Even Kernell may have already started to summon the two nobles of the East and West, and it is not a wise choice to confront them temporarily or to attack directly.

If you choose to confront them, you will only wait for more reinforcements. What to do at that time is not what Roland can say. At that time, they will not have the strength to fight back.

If they choose to attack directly, they will inevitably be regarded as rebels, and even need to continuously break through the coalition of two nobles.

Even if they wiped out all the nobles, where could they go, under the threat of orcs, there is no safe place anywhere.

What’s more, doing this when the orcs are coming is equivalent to directly helping the orcs, and the orcs may be grateful to him and let him die happily?

Roland could even imagine how future generations would judge him.

This will not only make oneself notorious, but will even bring disaster to future generations. This is a decision that no one will make even if he has a brain.

None of these will work, then they have only one way to go, that is to hand over military power, and at the same time pray that these big men will not use conspiracy to kill themselves.

These are obviously not the choices Roland hoped, that is to say, under the game between the Rhodes family and the Osborn family, their entire northern nobles have been restricted to death.

Do you want to say hate? Of course Roland hates it. He doesn’t like the feeling that everything is in the hands of others, but he can only follow the path they have arranged for himself. No one likes this feeling.

But the Osborn family’s move is tantamount to digging their own graves. This move will not only anger the nobles in the north, but also provoke the suspicion of the Rhodes family. No matter what the outcome is, they will not end well.

They seem to be planning to cut themselves off at Northwind Fortress? Under the circumstance that the entire northern border would be blocked by the kingdom, Roland couldn’t think of any other people who could pass through except those civilians.

Whether it is nobles or soldiers, the gap between them and the commoners is very large, and even the soldiers can easily distinguish it.

Sticking mud, dressing up, etc. is just fooling yourself, and it doesn’t work at all.

If the North Wind Fortress is lost, the entire North Territory will not be able to escape any nobles and their children, which is equivalent to tying the entire North Territory to the North Wind Fortress.

No one dares not work hard unless they want their family to die, which of course includes the Osborn family.

All the nobles in the northern realm have only one way to choose, and that is to lead the army north to the North Wind Fortress for support. As for life and death, it depends on whether God will reward them or not.

This is the choice the Osborn family has made for everyone in the North, and it is the only path they can choose.

Thinking of this, Roland immediately took the Daybreak Knights to the Orc Prairie, and urgently called all the southern nobles to discuss.

After they all arrived, Roland directly talked about supporting Northwind Fortress.

It is a pity that the nobles in the south were obviously unwilling to give up their stable and prosperous lives, and sent their few soldiers to the Northwind Fortress to support them.

Such an answer did not exceed Roland’s expectations at all. He immediately told them his judgment, and their faces instantly turned blue.

For a while, there were different opinions, and most of them were words of ‘cordial greetings’, aimed directly at the Osborn family.

After the wolf cavalry who crossed the border last time never returned, the alien race here gave up the idea of ​​looking for trouble with humans.

Even after hearing that human beings have knights that can be compared to wolf cavalry, they began to retreat actively, giving up a large living space.

Fortunately, these nobles are not pressing step by step for no good reason. They are also afraid of attracting the army of orcs. The two sides have a tacit understanding and left a buffer area.

They don’t need to be wary of aliens. Whether it is the speed of building the city or the output of sea salt, they have greatly improved. Seeing the money flowing in every day, everyone is smiling.

It can be said that they had a very good life, but now they are being carried into the chariot, which broke their original calm and made them very indignant.

But they can only be indignant. They know very well why they can have a peaceful life now, and they also know that it is the Northwind Fortress that has attracted the attention of the orcs.

Once the orcs enter the customs, they will never leave such a human army behind them, so they also have no choice but to support the Northwind Fortress.

But they were also unwilling to give up their interests here, so they left 10,000 people directly and hoped that Roland’s Dawn Knights would assist them in defense.

Roland directly agreed to this request, and the large-scale withdrawal of human soldiers is likely to make these aliens have undeserved thoughts.

This problem can only be solved by maintaining the force of deterrence against them, and at the same time guarding against possible attacks by orcs, so that the civilians here can be evacuated at any time.

In fact, Roland wanted these civilians to withdraw now, but these nobles were unwilling to do so, just because it would cost them a lot of money.

Roland simply told them that it was useless to continue drying sea salt. At this moment, His Majesty would definitely prevent any merchants from the north from entering, which meant that their sea salt could no longer be sold.

It can only be piled up here, waiting for the orcs to settle, and only if the North Wind Fortress is defended, they can continue to make their own money.

As for the fall of Northwind Fortress, the result no longer needs Roland’s explanation.

It was not until the situation was completely revealed that they reluctantly agreed to this request.

And began to evacuate the civilians here first, while the army remained here to prevent aliens from occupying their unbuilt castles.

So far, Roland’s purpose of coming here can be said to be all achieved.

Returning to the territory with the Knights of Dawn, he also needs to plan the strength of his territory.

There are a total of 4 companions, plus he is 5 people who need experience, and the average number of soldiers in the territory is just 10,000 per person.

But such an even distribution inevitably leads to their slow growth, especially in an increasingly dangerous world (guess) where moderation means self-destruction.

Moreover, it is impossible for them to go as large as possible. They have to leave at least 20,000 soldiers as a reserve, which also means that their experience acquisition will be even thinner.

Of course, Roland considered acquiring the command of these pioneering nobles, but when he arrived at the Northwind Fortress, it would definitely be acquired by Duke Osborn, and it would be meaningless to do so.

As for taking verbal command from Duke Osborne, he didn’t have any reason to do so, so he couldn’t do it either.

These are all trustworthy partners, and it is precisely because they all trust him that he doesn’t know what to do.

If this question is asked, they will definitely make the idea of ​​cultivating Roland, because he is not only the source of the entire power, but also the highest level among the members.

Roland couldn’t even refute this reason, and he knew he couldn’t convince them.

It seemed that he was intimidating them. Roland didn’t like this feeling, not at all.

For now, only if he directly sets the order can he dispel their thoughts.

The result was that Roland led 10,000 soldiers, and everyone else led 5,000 soldiers. This was the result of Roland’s forced distribution.

After all this is completed, the time has quietly come to October.

The weather this year is still snowing heavily, and the weather in the north is getting colder and colder. I don’t know if it is affected by the orc prairie.

It’s just that at this juncture of life and death, no one cares about this issue.

Fortunately, they also only need to bring a small amount of logistics. As a fortress to guard against orcs, the material reserves of North Wind Fortress have always been in a full warehouse under the supervision of the Osborn family.

After they arrived at Carney Land, they found that the road ahead had been cleaned up, and they still chose to continue cleaning it up for the convenience of those who came later.

This saved them a lot of time, and it took them only 20 days to reach the Northwind Fortress, which of course was almost half the usual distance.

“Call…”

Roland stopped the war horse and looked at the North Wind Fortress in front of him. It had been three full years since he stayed here last time~www.mtlnovel.com~ At that time, he led only a hundred soldiers, even The only companion is Andal.

And now, he has not only fulfilled his promise to Duke Osborn, but also brought a full 30,000 elite soldiers to help.

And those southern nobles who were persuaded by him to bring a full 20,000 soldiers, maybe they should now be called pioneer nobles,

He kind of wanted to see Duke Osborn’s shocked look…

Roland fell into deep memories, and time passed quickly.

Looking at the stagnant army, the guards of North Wind Fortress were a little puzzled.

If they had not heard the legendary story of Earl Roland and also recognized the banner of Earl Roland, it is estimated that the alarm bell would have sounded at this moment.
