Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Chapter 129 Anticlimactic

The border of the North and the wilderness,

A thick black smoke was particularly conspicuous, and the burning place was the fortified city of Herburg, which originally stood at the junction of the Northland and the wilderness.

This time, due to the lack of human forces in the coalition, the ogres did not get any benefits, but they retreated calmly. Even many craftsmen were calmly led by the ogres in the army and retreated to the wilderness together.

Although the human coalition forces were biting them, the ogre army did not divide its forces to harm the castles and villages along the road, but they still ordered to destroy as much as possible when they passed Helburg.

However, this kind of castle made of huge stones is obviously not so easy to destroy.

The tall and strong ogre was busy for a long time, but only destroyed a few city gates and a small section of the city wall. Finally, he simply splashed the oil in the city, lit a big fire and returned to Grugesh.

"Lord Grugesh, three more tribes have left the team."

"Let them go."

Grugesh seemed to have expected this situation, and his reaction was quite calm.

In the final analysis, the ogre is a primitive system with tribes as the unit. Except for a small number of people who have been influenced by Gruges and have racial awareness, most small tribes are willing to follow Gruges just for profit.

When it is beneficial, he is willing to follow Grugesh to win some benefits. When it is not beneficial, he naturally wants to ensure the independence of his own tribe. Therefore, as soon as he arrives in the wilderness, a large number of small tribes leave. Grugesh has no power to win a big victory. However, the legend of a two-headed ogre alone does not have such a good effect.

Gruges looked back at Helberg again, and led the army into the depths of the wilderness silently.

This time he didn't get nothing. A large amount of supplies and craftsmen can ensure the rapid growth of his descendant tribe. As long as he spends some time in management, he can still slowly annex other ogre tribes, but humans may not give him this opportunity...

"Hurry up!"

"Go fetch some more water!"

Under Herburg, the human coalition finally arrived at this strong city that once guarded the wilderness.

The nearly 100,000 troops did not confront the main force of the ogre, but they did the work of putting out the fire first.

Fortunately, Helberg is mainly made of stone, there are not many flammable materials, and there are water sources around.

With no shortage of manpower, the fire set by the ogre before retreating was quickly extinguished.

However, although the fire was extinguished, Herburg was not suitable for a large army to enter at this time.

The coalition forces set up camp in an open space not far away.

This battle felt a bit anticlimactic. The two sides fought for a long time, but in the end they didn't have a collision of the main forces.

Although the human coalition has achieved its strategic goal, it is actually a shame for Thor.

After all, watching the ogre leave calmly with the looted supplies and craftsmen, even a normal general would feel uncomfortable.

This regret is temporarily difficult to make up for. The long-term battle with the ogre can only rely on the Northland itself. The capital is too far away from the Northland. The use of supplies and soldiers from the capital is all upstream, and the cost is too high.

If there is no pressure from the orcs in the dragon's breath, perhaps the Golden Dragon Kingdom can still grit its teeth and go all out to directly wipe out the ogres in the wilderness.

However, under the situation of huge pressure in the east, the Kingdom naturally still has to prioritize resources on the more important Dragon's Pass.

Unless the ogre came up with the idea of ​​suppressing Beiguan after sweeping the Northland, it would be difficult to attract more attention from the Golden Dragon Kingdom.

Although the war has come to an end for the time being, Sol still has no time to regret too much, he still has more important things to do,

At this time, Sol was sitting in the newly set up main tent and studying the map. There were a lot of circles on the large map, which should be the territory that can also be used for rewards.

Discussing meritorious deeds and rewards is the most exciting time. So many no-job knights come to fight the enemy bravely not because of any feelings. What they want is something real. I don't pay attention.

Sol pondered for a while before looking at the map and then said to the guards on the side:

"Go let Li Cha come."

"Yes, my lord."

Richard's residence was not far from Sol's main tent, and he came to Sol's tent after a while.

"Lord Saul"

Li Cha's etiquette was well done, and after entering the door, he saluted Sol who was still thinking about the huge map.

"Um"

Sol hummed lightly, but didn't let Li Cha take a seat. He seemed a little absent-minded, and Li Cha could only stand quietly, waiting for Sol to speak.

"If you were to manage the original Hull family's territory, would you be sure to keep the ogres out of the Northland?"

"Promise not to let Gruges go any further east."

Saul asked suddenly, but Li Cha answered quite straightforwardly and confidently.

This is a truly confident self-confidence, backed by an invincible army of heroes. Richard did not promise Saul a five-year eradication of the famine, and took Grugesh to dedicate both heads to the capital. He is considered humble.

Even if you really want to do it, it won't take five years at all.

Of course, the original base of the Hull family is not only the dilapidated Fort Hull, but also a large area of ​​surrounding territory, which is at least three or four times the size of the Hunters, and the population is several times that of the Hunters.

Although the territory is dilapidated now, a lean camel is bigger than a horse. As long as it is rebuilt and operated for a period of time, with Richard's management methods, at least another elite army can be pulled out.

Cooperating with the system army, he dared to make the promise to completely wipe out Grugesh.

It's just that Sol obviously doesn't ask too much, just let him block Grugesh.

"If Herburg breaks again..."

"If Herburg breaks again, I will take my own head and apologize."

"good!"

Saul was quite satisfied with Li Cha's promise, but he didn't say much on the spot, and asked Li Cha to retreat after answering a few more words.

A few days later, dozens of officers and knights who participated in the battle gathered in the big tent.

Everyone had smiles on their faces, and they were very interested. Everyone knew that Sol was authorized by King Renn, and he could directly reward him. Now it's time to honor his military achievements.

"Gunther, a baron, a seal in the Northland..."

This time the ogre moved eastward, many territories in the Northland were directly turned into white land, more than a dozen nobles were directly extinct, and the territories were directly taken back and granted to knights who were willing to stay in the Northland to manage.

However, apart from Gunther and a very small number of people who chose the territory of the Northland, more knights still chose the territory on the Central Plains.

The knights who choose the Northland can get at least a dozen villages, which is quite generous.

And the closer the territory to Golden Dragon Capital, the more expensive it is,

There is still a small village on the edge of the central plain, and there is only one manor to choose from near the capital, and some are in short supply.

After all, the richness of the Central Great Plains is not comparable to that of the Northland. There are no knights who want to continue to develop their minds, and they are satisfied with winning a title and manors around the capital.

"Li Cha, Uncle Feng Ping, the territory is in the North..."
