I Want To Be a Nobleman

Marcus frowned when he heard Kryon's proposal, and hesitated, "We are running out of time, and there is no good time to create a conflict between them, in case it becomes self-defeating."

Marcus is a very decisive and brave person, but the risk of this matter is indeed too great. Although centaurs are not as smart as other intelligent races, don't treat people as fools. Go to war.

"I want to give it a try. Don't worry, I will take my men to lure the orcs and centaurs to fight. It will definitely not affect your defense. Even if it fails, I can delay for a while!"

Kryon's tone was very resolute, and Marcus couldn't say anything against him, so he could only remind him very solemnly: "Don't force yourself to do what you can't do!"

Time was running out, and Kryon didn't even bother to attend the meeting later, so he got up and left directly. Harold could only wish Kryon success in his heart.

"Regardless of whether Kryon can succeed or not, what we have to do is very simple, that is, to concentrate all our efforts to choose the most suitable battlefield to stop the orcs!"

Marcus took out the map and slammed it on the table with a bang. He, the king and a few nobles who were good at military had already thought about the defensive location, and now it was just a detailed plan.

"The ultimate goal of the orcs is to destroy our country, so they will definitely march towards King Gelder's territory with a clear goal, and the most magnificent and strongest giant fortress on this road is our final defense point. There are several roads in front of it. Defensive level, whether it is delaying time or consuming combat power, the effect is good!"

"."

Marcus kept making various decisions. During this period, even King Gelder came and naturally obeyed Marcus's command. Although it was a very critical moment, Harold still felt for Marcus. Happy, but envious at the same time, when will I be able to take charge of the power?

But Harold thought about it for a while, then shook his head and gave up. He is not such a hardworking and confident person. Harold thinks that he can manage the territory and lead a small army. The commander-in-chief who saw the overall situation was still a little too tired.

Marcus talked about various tactics, including how to design traps in the previous levels, how to create some illusions to deceive the orcs to delay time, and it didn't stop until midnight.

"What we have to do is to gather our combat power as much as possible, defend the Giant Fortress to the death, and never let the tragedies that happened to the Kurt Alliance and the Tuvala Alliance happen again!" Marcus raised his right hand clenched into a fist, his tone was firm, and he spoke loudly. Let everyone's morale up.

"Defend the fort!" "Kill the orcs!"

A good leader is so good that he can lead everyone to exert stronger strength. Although the King of Prague has strong personal ability, he is really not as good as Marcus in this respect.

At the end of the meeting, Harold walked to Marcus silently, and quietly told him about his secret weapon—the manned ancient tree of war, and the support of two legendary powerhouses, Crom and Stiyl.

Harold didn't reveal Crom's identity here, but only said that two legendary experts in the Twilight Brigade were willing to help.

"How strong is your ancient tree of killing people? Can it defeat the legendary powerhouse? Did the Twilight Brigade say that they would charge any reward?" Marcus asked Harold seriously, rather cautiously.

"The ancient tree of war is absolutely no problem against the legendary level. As long as it can help limit the speed of the legendary strong, it can easily injure them! And the Twilight Brigade also volunteered to help, no need to pay!"

Marcus nodded to show that he understood, and now he has to be busy mobilizing troops, and the specific tactics will have to wait until he sees the combat effectiveness of the orcs.

After the meeting was over, Harold continued to rush back to the territory at night, "Lucius, Rand, gather all the soldiers, and notify the officials to handle the logistics. I will go to the city of forging and the home of the elves first. Gather up." Soldiers wait for me to set off together!"

Harold is also too busy to rest and sleep. Thousands of dwarves in the forge city and a militia team composed of a lot of other demihumans are also a fighting force, and they must be brought along. In addition, the Twilight Brigade and the elves must be notified in time about the war Case.

Alan took the elves and a group of demi-human soldiers trained by the Elf Homeland and set off with Harold's troops. The Twilight Brigade was mixed in with the troops of the Elven Homeland. The dwarves in the Forge City were not professional fighters. , unwilling to leave the station until reinforcements from the dwarf kingdom arrive.

However, they offered to help deal with the small-scale orc rebellion, preventing them from ignoring Harold's main force from bypassing the giant fortress to kill.

Harold was a little disappointed, but there was nothing he could do about it. After all, these dwarves were people from the Kingdom of Corondo in name, but they were actually deeply involved with the Kingdom of Dwarves. It was impossible for him to forcibly recruit others.

However, the other militias and guards in the territory are very enthusiastic. After all, this is a war about the survival of the country. If they lose, the entire Corondo Kingdom will receive a devastating blow. Even if the civilians run fast, they are not slaughtered by the orcs. , Displaced, uprooted, like no good results.

Harold Territory has recruited more than 9,000 troops during this period. If the orcs can come one month later, this number can be increased by 30 to 40%. Of course, such a large number of troops cannot be maintained for a long time, but with the orcs The war will not last too long, which is not a problem.

There are a total of more than 100 soldiers in the system, more than 30 are lion knights, and the rest are weaker soldiers such as [Noble Knight Attendant] and [Corondo Iron Guard].

It was also because of lack of time, otherwise Harold would be able to increase the attributes of the Lion Knight's Knight Order, and the number of Lion Knights would be even greater.

However, in this large-scale war, the role of system soldiers is much smaller. After the orcs are blessed with the power of the abyss, except for the top [Lion Knight], other system soldiers have no attribute advantages. defense.

Harold rushed to the Giant Fortress, the largest city defense fortress in all of Corondo, and it can even be said to be the largest city defense fortress in the entire human kingdom. It has already packed a full 100,000 troops and is completely saturated.

At that time, the king of Prague built this fortress with great efforts to make it bigger and grander. It took 8 years and tens of thousands of coolies. An army of more than 10,000 fought.

Whether it is a civil war in the human kingdom or an external battle with other races, there are very few such large-scale battles, and the size of this fortress is still somewhat dwarfed by the huge coalition forces.
