Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 68 The Benders

"Patriarch, there is an ogre tribe that has robbed Lujiao Village and has not left. It seems that they are going to live."

In Bundaberg, Baron Bender was rubbing his temples and listening to the news that gave him a headache.

I thought that this group of ogres had almost destroyed the village and they should leave, so that even if they lost some villagers,

In the coming year, there will be less harvest and some poor people will starve to death. As long as they survive for two years, they will always recover.

The Golden Dragon Kingdom is densely populated, but there is no shortage of those villagers. Every year, refugees who cannot survive in the interior come to reclaim wasteland for the lords of the Northland. Anyway, there is no shortage of people.

But the ogre's posture is not as if it wants to grab a wave and leave. Not only does it not leave, but it also plans to stay.

This is terrible, this is to grab the land and live permanently, it can't be dealt with by paying a little property and the lives of the untouchables,

No wonder Baron Bender had a headache.

"How long will there be enough food in the castle?"

Bender rubbed his head and asked in a low voice

"If no more refugees are admitted in, the food stored in the castle will be enough for more than a year."

It's finally good news. In Bundaberg, there are nearly 500 people including the Bender family, soldiers, attendants, and some villagers who escaped from the ogre.

The materials in the castle are quite rich, and finally they can survive for a while.

The Bender family's castle is located on the plains to the west of the Northland. The Bender family only has the title of baron, and the fiefdom is not large.

There are only a few villages in the territory, but the advantage is that the location of the site is good, the land is fertile and the crops are good, because the terrain is flat,

The public security situation is relatively good, and many caravans will also pass through the Bender family's territory, which also brings a lot of income to the Bender family every year.

Sufficient income also enabled the Bender family to support several quasi knights and hundreds of professional fighters,

The most important thing is that there are two strong knights in this generation of Bender family. The current Patriarch Baron Bender and his brothers have both successfully promoted to knights.

This strength is not weaker than most of the viscounts, and the Bender family can be called a hegemony among the nearby lords.

But at this time, the Bender family was suppressed by the ogre in the castle and did not dare to go out at all.

In other words, the nobles in the entire Fifth War Zone have fallen into this embarrassing situation,

The main forces of several large tribes of ogre are still concentrated near Helberg, but many small tribes have rushed in like locusts. Although these tribes are small,

But at least one ogre warrior brought three to five hundred ogres, a small half of which were young and strong ogre warriors and nearly two hundred quasi knights.

Although the rest are old and weak, women and children, they are not weaker than ordinary human warriors.

Although the Bender family has two knights, the Bender family does not have any advanced breathing techniques and air-entraining techniques. The combat effectiveness of the two knights of the Bender family belongs to the middle and lower levels of the knight class.

Adding the two together might not be enough to defeat an ogre warrior, not to mention that the power gap at the quasi-knight level is even greater.

They didn't dare to leave the castle to fight the ogres, they could only watch the ogres ravage the village,

That is to say, ogres are not good at siege, otherwise the Bender family still has nothing to say at this moment.

The situation of several lords around the Fifth War Zone will only be worse than that of the Bender family.

After all, not every family can raise soldiers like Li Cha. If they dare to leave the castle and take the initiative to fight, Li Cha may only be able to catch up with him now.

"Is there any news from the messenger we sent out?"

"Lord Baron, the messenger has only been out for less than two days."

"It's me who is impatient."

It took less than two days for the envoys sent in several directions to go out. Generally speaking, it is naturally impossible for any news to come so quickly.

"Strengthen your guard, return to your own positions, and I will go to the city wall to have a look."

Baron Bender quickly ended the discussion, because now the Bender family has nothing to do except wait for the news from the messenger.

...

On the other side, after half a night of fighting, Li Cha ordered the troops to rest in the village as soon as possible.

Baron Bender didn't know that the ogres in Antler Village, which caused him a headache, had already been wiped out by Richard at the moment, in a real sense, and none of them escaped.

After wiping out the ogres, Li Cha and others rescued dozens of terrified villagers from a large cellar.

The reason why they were still alive was that they were kept as spare rations by this ogre tribe.

These extremely frightened villagers just wanted to seek a sense of security by staying with Li Cha and the others. After persuading them for a long time, Li Cha and the others couldn't persuade them to leave, so they could only drive them away by threatening force.

However, Richard also pointed out a way out for them - go to the direction of Hunter's Territory. Anyway, Hunter's Territory is large enough and there are not too many people.

"Ron, have you found any flaws?"

"Um"

Li Cha and Ron were sitting in a big house in the center of the village, eating and chatting. The bluestone structure of the house was suspended very high.

The original owner of the house should have been a respectable person in the village. At this time, I don't know whether he died in the attack of the ogre or escaped.

Because the house was well-built, the ogre who occupied the house before didn't even carry out much renovations, and lived here directly.

Li Cha is a guy who can endure hardships, but he will never wrong him if he has the conditions.

At this time, if I had the conditions, I naturally lived in the most comfortable house here. I searched for some ingredients and made some meals to satisfy my appetite.

"They're so arrogant,

Scattered everywhere, if the lords of the fifth war zone can gather together, there is a great chance to defeat these ogres one by one. "

There are only four ogre tribes that have entered the fifth war zone, and they are scattered like a pie, which is convenient for plundering.

If the lords of the fifth war zone can gather together, they can always gather a coalition army consisting of six or seven knights, fifty or sixty quasi-knights, and more than five hundred professional fighters.

Although this kind of power is not as strong as Richard, if he is alone against any small tribe of ogres, he is absolutely sure of winning.

Although the principle is simple, it is extremely difficult to implement.

After all, for a small noble family, any knight is like a magic needle in the sea. No one dares to send a knight out to make their own castle empty. They can't afford this risk and can only wait for foreign assistance.

"We can rely on the Griffon's scouting to track the location of the other ogre tribes and wipe them all out."

Ron knew the Griffin's detection ability. Relying on the Griffin's detection, facing the ogres who had no aerial ability, they seemed to have opened the perspective of God.

"No, let's go to Bundaberg first."

"When we work, we have to collect the money first, right?"

Li Cha frowned at Ron, looking like a profiteer.

It's no wonder that Richard is acting like a money fanatic at this time. The Hunter family has taken a big step recently, and the Flying Bear Army is expanding at a very fast speed. The army is really a gold-swallowing monster.

The Hunter family, which has always been not bad at money, is also experiencing financial difficulties at this time, and urgently needs some windfall to make up for it.

"Call the troops and prepare to go."

"yes"

...
