Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 99: Before the War

Another sunny day,

Although the spring rain is as expensive as oil, but this time the rain is too little. There is almost no rain in the past half month. Sunny days are not a good thing.

If there is no more rain, the spring drought seems to be inevitable. The production of the Northland this year has been largely destroyed. If there is another spring drought, I am afraid that the next year will be even more difficult.

Only Hunter led the construction of a lot of water conservancy facilities under Richard's management, and the situation is slightly better.

However, these things are not what Richard needs to worry about for the time being.

According to the scouting of the sentinels and the griffins, Li Cha has thoroughly determined the number and movements of the ogres.

A total of three thousand ogres came straight with tens of thousands of kobolds in their arms, scaring all the little nobles on the way and shivering in the castle.

In contrast, a slightly chaotically dressed army is marching towards the southwest. There is no way, except for the more uniform armor of the more than 2,000 people in the Flying Bear Army, the armies of other lords have their own outfits , but finally able to complete the armor, it looks pretty mighty.

After integrating several troops, Li Cha decided to take the initiative to attack. This team is a bit chaotic, but its combat effectiveness is still there. Anyway, there is nothing worth defending on the way. Entering the castle is surrounded but passive.

This road is full of dilapidated villages. It’s okay in Benderland. Not long after the ogre raged, it only harmed one or two villages.

Many lords in this direction have completely abandoned the subjects under their rule and closed the castle tightly, just to protect themselves.

Although there are many refugees fleeing on the road, there has not yet been a scene of remains on the roadside and thousands of miles of uninhabited people.

After all, the ogre disaster has just begun. The northern border has been stable for so many years, and the common people still have a little food in their hands. However, this year's spring farming has been greatly damaged, and next year, there may not be enough food.

Surrounded by a group of nobles, Li Cha rode at the front of the team on a large western border horse.

The refugees along the road basically didn't dare to approach this coalition army, and most of them avoided the army in advance. Some bold ones would observe from a distance, and maybe they would guess in their hearts whether these troops could kill the ogre drive away.

Li Cha also noticed these refugees. When he saw this group of refugees fleeing like headless chickens with their families, Li Cha suddenly thought of something.

"Quell"

"Master Richard"

Quill was a little behind, but he could still hear Richard's call, so he quickly responded.

"Send some people to gather the refugees, and lead them to Hunter to let Chief Eiger settle them down."

"Yes, master."

The development days of the Northland are short, and there is no shortage of land. Hunter Territory still has enough wasteland to accommodate more people. Population and land are the foundation of a feudal regime. Richard will never give up the opportunity to increase the population of the territory.

And he recruited these refugees to give them a chance to survive. If they go to Hunter Territory, there should be some relief in the coming year, and there are still some chances of survival. Now, except for Hunter Territory, even Snow City in the Northland may not have any food left.

"well"

After ordering Quill, Li Cha couldn't help but sighed softly.

"Why do your lords sigh?"

Baron Bender took the position behind Li Cha's side and back as soon as he set off on the road. He was relatively close to Li Cha, and even Li Cha's slight sigh was heard by him.

"Ogres are rampant, and people's lives are difficult."

Li Cha's words are somewhat sincere, although for Li Cha, he is the beneficiary of this ogre's eastward invasion, if there are no ogres to break the order of the Northland,

The Hunter family had no chance to expand their power several times at all, and he, Richard, also had no chance to lead the coalition army as a knight without a knighthood, surrounded by nobles.

After all, chaos is an upward ladder, and heroes are born in response to the times.

But Li Cha is not a hard-hearted hero after all, even though he has been tempered to be quite rational in two lifetimes, but looking at this group of sallow and emaciated refugees with frightened expressions, he still can't help feeling a little compassion.

"Master Li Cha is merciful! With the leadership of Master Li Cha, our army will definitely win this battle."

Baron Bender still flattered habitually, perhaps with a little sincerity.

"Ah"

Li Cha nodded to Baron Bender, then smiled self-deprecatingly, and cursed inwardly.

"hypocritical"

Ask the common people or ask the ghosts and gods, you have to climb to that position first to be eligible to choose.

"Send me the order, speed up, and arrive at the reserved place to set up camp before dark!"

"Boost!"

"Boost!"

After Li Cha's mind cleared up, the whole team seemed to regain their vitality.

...

A castle to the southwest,

The castle has lost its original aristocratic style, and it is a scene of hell on earth.

There are no living people in the castle anymore, all around are terrifying ogres,

If you want to find the original owner of the castle, you may only find a little trace in the boiling iron pot.

"Master Ha Chi, according to your order, the city gate has been completely destroyed, and several sections of the city wall have also been demolished."

An ogre wearing fairly exquisite heavy armor was sitting on the steps of the castle hall listening to his subordinates' reports.

Hachi is the captain of this thousand-man team. According to Grugesh's order, Hachi led a thousand-man team and four small tribes that were conscripted straight to the second district of Benderling.

Ha Chi strictly followed Grugesh's orders, basically ignoring most of the castles of the human lords along the way, but forcibly took down a small baron's castle on the last part of the road.

It is also unlucky for the lord of this family. The location of the castle happens to be not far from the battlefield where Hachi reserved, and it is perfectly blocked in the back of Hachi.

In order to prevent the rear from being harassed by the humans in the castle during the war, Ha Chi took down the hindering castle in one fell swoop before the coalition forces led by Richard arrived.

Now the castle is destroyed because the ogres are not good at defending the city. The size of the castle is not comfortable for the ogres to live in, so they simply destroy it to avoid being used by humans.

"Where is that human army?"

"According to the Kobold's report, it should collide with us after tonight."

After all, Grugesh's direct lineage has been trained for a long time, and they basically have the basic quality of the army. Although they can't compare with Richard's detection methods, they can still detect a large number of human troops on the plain in advance.

"Pass down the order, tonight, let the soldiers have a good rest tonight, and tomorrow they will fight humans to the death."

No matter what tricks you use to wipe out several tribes, you will be crushed to pieces tomorrow.

Hachi is very confident about tomorrow's battle. Humans have only 7,000 troops, and he has nearly 3,000 ogres under his command, and 1,000 of them are direct descendants in full armor. They can crush this human army with their eyes closed. yes.
