Heroes of the Invincible Knight

"Drive, drive!"

A cavalry squad from the north came from the official road, because the leading cavalry carried a command flag on their backs, presumably there was some military sentiment,

The civilians crowded at the gate cleared the way for him. After all, if he was hit to death by this kind of flying cavalry who reported the emergency military situation, his death would be in vain. Maybe he would be labeled as a big delay to the military situation. .

More than a dozen cavalry were able to enter Golden Dragon Capital after being inspected by the guards at the city gate.

The cavalry of the Northland are very easy to identify. The horses of the Northland are generally short. The more than a dozen cavalrymen are obviously riding on the pony horses of the Northland. Anyone with a little knowledge can recognize them.

In the eyes of people from the Golden Dragon Capital, people from the Northland are no different from bumpkins, and they are more or less discriminated against in the capital.

The commoners of the capital look down on the commoners of the north, and the nobles of the king regard the nobles of the north as rural nobles.

Of course, the Lanster family and the newly promoted Hirano Bohunt family are not included in the list now. As long as they are strong enough, they will not dare to blackmail them.

More than a dozen cavalrymen from the North didn't feel any discrimination.

They are all soldiers under Hirano Uncle Li Cha, and this time they are responsible for escorting important evidence to the capital.

Although they were on the official road all the way, and they were in the capital of the kingdom, the ones on their backs were not peerless treasures, and generally it would not be possible for someone to come to their advantage.

But for the sake of safety, Li Cha still sent a small team of about ten elite cavalry to take the box containing the two heads of Grugesh to the capital to show victory.

Although the short-footed horses these cavalry rode were a bit funny in the eyes of the people in the capital who were used to seeing the big horses in the western region, the armor on their bodies and the swords and bows around their waists were almost equal to the truth.

From this point of view, it seems that they are quite capable of fighting elites, and naturally no one dares to provoke them with cheap words.

"Captain, there are so many people in Golden Dragon City, more than people in Piaoxue City."

"Nonsense, this is the capital of the kingdom."

In fact, the captain has never seen the prosperity of the capital, at most he has been to Piaoxue City,

But at this moment, he had to lose face in front of his subordinates.

"Captain, what do you think of the taverns in the capital compared to those in Ironwood City?"

"Of course it's much bigger."

"That…"

"Okay, okay, don't give me this and that for a while, send the things to the place first, there is no urgent military situation this time, after the things are delivered, I will take you to the tavern in the capital to see and see."

"oh!"

The soldiers cheered together when they heard the captain's promise, causing the wounded pedestrians to look sideways.

There are two types of taverns in the royal capital. The taverns opened by dwarves are good, and the general wine is good, that is, the drunkards just drink, while the taverns opened by humans are more or less tricky.

There is a clear distinction between meat and vegetables,

People in the Northland are fond of wine. Seeing how excited the cavalrymen are, I think the captain is going to take them to a dwarf tavern for some good wine.

…

The capital of the king, the garrison of the forbidden army.

Saul works on-site most of the time,

"Master Saul, a team of cavalry from the North brought you something, and it is said that Uncle Hirano mentioned it."

"Huh? Present it."

"Yes, my lord."

The news that Li Cha attacked the wilderness by surprise and succeeded in getting rid of Gruges had already reached Sol through the wind bird.

Although Saul felt that Li Cha didn't dare to play tricks on this kind of thing,

But it was still unimaginable, so he kept suppressing the news, waiting for Li Cha to present the evidence later,

After all, he has seen ogre combat effectiveness before, and he also knows how difficult the wilderness expedition is.

Although he has great confidence in Richard's ability, his psychological expectation has always been that Richard can firmly guard the original Helburg and prevent the ogres from going east again.

But it didn't take long before Li Cha gave him a surprise.

He had to verify the news carefully before preparing to make a meritorious deed for Li Cha.

Almost half a month has passed, and Li Cha's subordinates finally sent the evidence over.

"grown ups."

Two guards carried the box in,

"Just put it on the table."

Sol knew what was in the box, but he didn't pay attention to it. He planned to put it on the table to read.

After fighting on the battlefield for so many years, Sol has never seen anything strange, including a living creature's head.

The two guards put the box on the table, and opened it quickly under Sol's command.

Sol saw such a strange head, he had never seen it before,

But because of the strangeness of these two heads, Sol further confirmed Richard's military exploits,

Two ferocious ogre heads are placed together, because they have been embalmed, they are not broken,

The key is that the necks of the two heads are still connected by skin and flesh. It can be seen at a glance that this is Grugesh's head, unless there is another two-headed ogre in the wilderness,

Li Cha's slashing with the sword was very particular, he intentionally lowered the incision, leaving a joint, thus proving that it was the head of the double-headed ogre Grugesh,

Otherwise, few humans have seen Grugesh. Even if they have, the ogre looks the same in the eyes of humans, so they probably wouldn’t be able to recognize them.

It took a lot of painstaking effort to cut this sword. Li Cha had obviously been thinking about these two heads for a long time, and he had even thought about how to chop them off.

Sol stretched out his hand to check the connection again, carefully looked at the texture of the connection between the skin and flesh, and after confirming that it was not fake, he closed the box again,

"Get ready for me, and go to the palace immediately to see the king."

"Yes, my lord."

…

Richard's contribution this time is quite large, and the specific reward is not something Sol can easily decide.

According to the reward set before, Li Cha's direct offering of Grugesh's head this time is already a credit for being a marquis.

Originally, the ogre's reward was not high,

If this matter is carefully calculated, it has to be said to the Jingbei Army,

Because the originally powerful Jingbei Army suffered consecutive defeats against the ogre army led by Grugesh, and even the contemporary head of Lanster, Marquis Wade, fell into it.

As a result, the head of the ogre, who was originally not worth much military merit, has risen, and its style has improved a lot, becoming the military merit second only to the orcs.

Purely based on the theory of military merit, it is no problem for Li Cha to be a Marquis.

But it is obvious that the matter of conferring a marquis cannot be just based on military merits. This matter also involves the power structure of the Northland. Obviously, it must be carefully considered.

The nobles of the Golden Dragon Kingdom said that there is not much, and that there must be a lot of less,

Barons, nobles at the level of viscounts are at the bottom of the entire pyramid, and there are a lot of golden dragons in the city.

As long as the military merit is enough, it will be given directly, the kingdom will never be stingy,

At the position of the earl, it can be regarded as the waist of the pyramid, and it can be regarded as a force that can affect the situation of a place in various places.

Although it is not easy to give, but if the military merit is solid enough, there will not be too many twists and turns.

But when it comes to the Marquis, it is no longer simply based on military merit, but also considers the political structure of the kingdom, where the local forces are intertwined,

At the level of marquis, Jinlong is a top nobleman who can have a say in the kingdom's affairs.

In the local fiefdom, just like the Lanster family before, they became the princes who dominated one side,

How to ensure loyalty to the royal family and how to balance local forces are all problems.

"Uncle Wang is in such a hurry, what can you do with me?"

Sol saw Ryan very well. According to Ryan's order, as long as Sol wants to see him, even if he is in a concubine's room, he must inform him immediately, and no guards will stop Sol.

"About the matter of the Northland, the two-headed ogre was killed by Uncle Hirano,

Now that the heads have been sent to the capital, I have experienced it..."

Sol didn't talk too much nonsense. After greeting Rennes as usual, and being helped up by Rennes, he straight to the point told the news of the Northland.

"good!"

After hearing the news, Ren couldn't help clapping his hands. He was really afraid that the beastman kingdom would have to face another corrupt Northland under the pressure of the surge.

There were some signs of the rise of the ogre before, and Li Cha killed Grugesh, which can be regarded as suppressing this trouble.

But then, Ren fell into silence,

He realized why Thor came to him,

"What does Uncle Wang mean?"

"Marquis"
