Heroes of the Invincible Knight

It was naturally Li Cha who caused the commotion outside the door. Li Cha, who took his four units including his own, could only travel more than a hundred kilometers each time he teleported, and he had to stop for an hour or two to recover every time he used it twice. When recovering, Li Cha can summon the Flying Dragon King and take a few men to catch up with a distance of one or two hundred kilometers. The main reason is that the ultimate Hydra, which can only move on the ground, is a bit of a drag on the overall speed.

Both Natalis and Red Dragon are fine. They are both in the sky anyway. The ultimate Hydra galloping on the ground really frightened many people. Anyone who sees this monster more than ten meters high will tremble. Fortunately, The Ultimate Hydra just passed by without showing any intention to attack. It is estimated that the nobles who saw the Ultimate Hydra have already reported the information layer by layer.

After a while, the information will be on Ren's table. It's okay in the wild. After all, I've been on my way, and I've been teleporting over two hundred kilometers from time to time. I don't meet many people, but when the nine When the hydra appeared in Posey City, riots inevitably broke out. Even when Paley came out, his heart twitched when he saw the ultimate hydra, even if he guessed that it was Richard's helper , and inevitably a little timid, several big knights behind Paley even drew their swords and stared nervously at the monster more than ten meters high outside the door.

Fortunately, Li Cha finally brought a tall woman to stand in front of the mansion, confirming Paley's guess and reassuring him a little.

"My dear brother-in-law, you are finally here. Where did you get this big guy?"

Apart from doubts, Paley’s tone also had a hint of envy. The Ultimate Hydra is not a friendly existence at first glance. Can handle it.

Faced with Paley's question, Li Cha could only deal with it with a haha, and then directly shifted the topic to other places.

"How is the situation now?"

Paley saw that Li Cha was unwilling to talk, so he wisely stopped pestering him and quickly changed the topic to the real business.

"It's very bad. The Sea Clan is no longer satisfied with just attacking ships and harassing ports. They have already captured several ports, and they will continue to attack inland. Their purpose is probably to turn dozens of miles along the sea into No man's land."

"How did they do it?"

Li Cha was a little puzzled when he heard this. The advantage of the Sea Clan is always at sea. In fact, they are not opponents of human soldiers on land. A soldier who has received basic training and is fully equipped can easily fight three or five soldiers of the Sea Clan. Seemingly appearing and disappearing on the sea, attacking the fleet and harassing the port is nothing more than that, but if it is more than ten miles inland, shouldn't it be caught and beaten by the southern army? Could it be that the human army in the south has degenerated to this extent?

"Let's go in and talk about it. This Sea Clan's attack is a bit unusual."

Richard remained puzzled, and walked into the meeting hall with Natalis and Paley.

"His Royal Highness Paley."

As soon as he entered the door, Li Cha saw a table of nobles who had similar temperaments to the twelve families in the river valley. These people could be distinguished from the military nobles in the North Land and Longxiguan at a glance. He started out with military exploits, but the nobles in the south have been inherited relatively early, and the commercial atmosphere in the south is strong. Although all the people sitting here are masters above the knight rank, they do lack a little bit of iron and blood in them.

The only difference between them and the River Valley is that the kingdom's control over the south is not low. They can't get in the way of administrative officials and regular legions. As for daring to reach out to the army.

So this time the Sea Clan was raging, and their performance was much more positive than that of the people in the River Valley when they faced the ogre. After all, their vital interests have been hurt.

"This is Li Cha, the youngest military marquis in the kingdom. I believe everyone is familiar with him. He is also the reinforcement I invited this time."

Paley's control over Posey seemed to be pretty good. Although the big nobles of Posey City who were carrying him behind their backs still had some complaints, when he really walked in, these people still behaved quite honestly.

"Master Li Cha, you are indeed worthy of being the number one master in the kingdom, and you look very heroic."

"It turns out His Royal Highness Paley invited Mr. Richard, so we can rest assured."

The current Richard is not as good as before. He had to pull Sol’s banner in the river valley at the earliest, but now he himself is the banner. After Paley introduced Richard’s identity, the high-ranking nobles in Percy City Behave very politely.

Of course, although these people have a strong businessman temperament, they are definitely not stupid. Just the huge red dragon from the sky is enough for them to show enough respect.

"This is the Marquis of Valaya, and this is the Earl of Ascota..."

Following Paley's introduction, Li Cha nodded one by one as a greeting, and then took his seat to get to the point.

"This time we gathered five legions, an elite garrison of 100,000 people, more than 200 knight-level masters, ten great knight-level masters, and nearly a thousand ships, including more than 200 large warships and a dragon boat. .”

The dragon boat here is not the dragon boat used in festivals in our normal cognition, but a large sea boat with a length of nearly 200 meters and a width of about 70 meters. It can carry up to a thousand people. After special treatment, it can be dropped by a giant dragon perch.

The sea is vast, and if you want to go on an expedition to the Sea Clan, it is impossible for the giant dragon to fly in the sky all the time. Even if the giant dragon has good physical strength, it is not indefatigable. There must be a place to rest. The role of the dragon boat is somewhat similar to today's aircraft carrier.

The sea trade in the south of the Golden Dragon Kingdom is well-developed, and the shipbuilding technology has always been good. It has almost reached the peak level of the sail age, and it is a bit of black technology. and climbing.

"How is the combat effectiveness of the army?"

This is the focus of Richard's attention. The kingdom's regular troops are now either guarding the main cities in the south, or they are being transferred to the north. Moreover, Paley, the city lord of Percy and the fourth prince, cannot transfer the three major southern troops. There are only private soldiers and local garrison troops. Although there are still a large number of garrison legions in various places on paper, most of these legions are pissed. It is still a naval battle that sails thousands of miles, and the general garrison is definitely not reliable.

Li Cha is not worried about his own safety. With the power around him and a teleportation skill, he can run even if he can't beat him. He is afraid that Paley is a good manager but doesn't know how to fight. He went, and even brought in a vote of southern nobles, which led to the collapse of the situation in the southern part of the kingdom, which was also quite unfavorable to Richard.

Paley knew exactly what Richard was worried about, and immediately answered:

"They are all elite, at least they will not lose to the regular army of the Southern Corps. Besides, there are more than forty nobles who will participate in this operation."

The elite of the five legions, Paley managed a lot of things in the south. It is a rule that princes cannot get involved in the kingdom's standing legions, so controlling some local garrison legions and some irregular militia groups is a common method for these princes For example, although the eldest prince stayed in the capital for a long time, he mainly controlled some of the city guards and some decent local garrisons on the central plain, and his influence on the imperial army was very low. Just 20,000 to 30,000 people.

Someone like Paley who can directly mobilize the five legions really exceeded Richard's expectations, and it turned out that his ability was more powerful than imagined.

"This time, our Waraya family will fully support Prince Paley's actions. In addition to the 1,000 elites promised earlier, the Waraya family will send out another warship and 2,000 private soldiers. I will lead five great knights. Tier 1 retainers join the battle."

"this…"

As soon as the Marquis of Varaya let go, the rest of the nobles looked at each other in dismay. The Marquis of the South is not comparable to the half-vassal marquis of the Lanster family. How much is the difference between the Steer family, but the Waraya family in the south does not need to support as many troops as the Lanster family. Adding two thousand is basically taking out all of their own background, let alone the logistical supplies. You need to bring your own.

In the eyes of other nobles, this kind of behavior is a blatant price increase, and in the past, the Varaya family was not easy to deal with Paley. Before Paley came, the most powerful nobleman in Percy City was the Marquis of Waraya. Give me some face, but after Paley arrived in Posey City, he wanted to take advantage of his prestige. Although Paley controlled the scale skillfully, it was inevitable that he would slightly hurt the interests of the Varaya family. This time, Varaya did not Even if you know the general idea of ​​dismantling the stage, I didn't expect the support to be so strong, it's just so inappropriate.

"Okay! The Sea Clan is in chaos, and the interests of our entire Posey City, and even the entire south, will suffer. Everyone should be like the Marquis of Valaya, and we can't just rely on a few families to contribute."

Marquis Valaya's sudden statement was a surprise. Paley, who was unprepared, only lamented that Richard was indeed his savior, and then passed the conversation to the nobles at the table.

Seeing that the two leaders of Boxi City have reached an agreement, the others also know that it is unreasonable not to increase their efforts, and they have promised to increase the initial troop dispatch and material support.

In the end, in addition to the 100,000 people Paley had prepared, there were more than 20,000 noble private soldiers and more than 200 knight-level masters.

"Let's talk about the battle plan. The sea clan's nearest large clam farm is about a thousand nautical miles south of the port. Our fleet has already assembled in Nieder Harbor. I request that all troops participating in the battle within a week come from Nieder." Degang boarded the boat and set off."

"Then what should the Sea Clan do if they continue to march inland?"

"As long as we set off from Nieder Harbor, the Sea Clan will not care about attacking. They will definitely come back to besiege us instead of marching inland."

What Paley said was betting that the Sea Clan would not dare to change their home. After all, the clam farm was the lifeblood of the Sea Clan. He dared to bet, but the Sea Clan did not dare to bet.

"Although Mr. Richard led the giant dragon to fight this time, the Sea Clan is a bit unusual this time."

"Yeah, the Sea Clan was never so difficult to deal with in the past."

"Those priests of the sea tribe who usually pretend to be gods and ghosts seem to have the ability to cast spells now, hell."

As soon as this was mentioned, the nobles below were a little sad, and a little bit of anger just mentioned was vented. After all, they have suffered a lot from the priests of the Sea Clan recently.

"Spellcasting ability?"

Li Cha made a question when he heard the word.

"Yes, although the Sea Clan used to have the habit of carrying priests with the army, those priests used to be just pretending to be gods and ghosts. Recently, I don't know what happened. They have the ability to trigger tides and release water arrows. Before the Sea Clan besieged When I was in a noble castle, some priests used high-level magic such as water dragon."

The age of magic is not far from now. After all, five hundred years ago, there were court mages who could barely cast spells. Paley was able to find relevant information and recognize the magic spells used by the priests of the Sea Clan. Spell.

"How powerful is it?"

"Although it is not as powerful as in the records, the water dragon technique is already worth the full blow of the great knight."

"The spell-casting ability of the priests of the sea tribe came quite bizarre, as if it was produced overnight. When the earliest dragon knights left, they attacked the fleet at most, which was far less rampant than it is now."

Li Cha probably understood why the situation in the south collapsed so quickly. With the departure of the dragon knight and the strengthening of the strength of the Shanghai clan, the strength of both sides suddenly increased and decreased. No wonder Paley, an old silver coin, was burned by Gao.

"When did the Sea Clan have the ability to cast spells?"

Li Cha suddenly thought of something, and asked Paley next to him.

"About a week ago, any questions?"

Paley was a little puzzled, why did Li Cha suddenly ask this question.

"It's nothing, let's get to know about it."

Li Cha said the words calmly on the face, but he was not at all calm in his heart.

Wait, wasn't it time for me to place the artifact a week ago? Although he is not sure yet, Li Cha has a strong intuition in his heart that the sudden ability of the Sea Clan to cast spells must have something to do with Liz's protection.

Ma De, for a long time, it is not me who has benefited the most from Liz's protection, but the Sea Clan. Perhaps it was Liz's protection that triggered the activation of water elements in a large area. The priests of the sea clan, who are similar to the casters of blood inheritance, quickly recovered their spellcasting ability, and humans belong to the knowledge inheritance type. Although their potential is stronger than that of the sea clan, But the initial recovery will definitely be much slower.

However, according to the current situation, although the Sea Clan has obtained a certain ability to cast spells, it is still within the controllable range. At least Paley dares to prepare for a counterattack, but he still has the power to fight back. The Sea Clan's spellcasting ability is not strong.

"Ahem, this time, besides the giant dragon, I also brought a Hydra that I subdued, which is the big guy outside. Its strength is not inferior to that of the giant dragon, and it has the ability to fight in water. And this Natalie Ms. Si, is comparable to me in strength and is also a strong Sky Knight."

The sky is also the sky for ten minutes, Li Cha silently said it again. At this time, there is no need to hide any strength anymore, but to show more strength and give everyone a boost.

Sure enough, not only the nobles present, even Paley's eyes lit up, and he had a greater grasp of the original battle plan.

"Okay, let's go down and prepare, this battle must hurt the Sea Clan and maintain the stability in the south of the Kingdom."

After saying this, Pale, Marquis of Valaya, and Li Cha looked at each other in the room. The others may be thinking that they hurt the Sea Clan, and after returning to their previous state, they can continue to make money normally , Paley and the other three know more, and there is more meaning in this sentence...

...

In the south, in a sea of ​​hundreds of meters in length, thousands of strong and well-equipped patrol guards are surrounded in a circle, as if they are protecting some important person.

"Your Excellency, High Priest, I don't think it makes much sense for us to do this. The land is not suitable for our survival. It is just meaningless to consume the lives of the people."

"Your Majesty, how can you have such an idea, our warriors are winning steadily, and you start thinking about peace talks?"

"Then when will this meaningless war last?"

"Fight until no human being dares to set foot in the Sea God's territory."

"They are afraid to come now."

"No, their lessons are not deep enough."

"Order General Atam to cooperate with the priests tomorrow to take down the target city."

"you…"

"Your Majesty, you should have the aura of being a king, instead of always being a peace lover here."

"Let's go."

After crossing the sea king to give the order, the high priest of the sea clan left with his own group of sea patrolling guards, leaving only the sea king wearing the crown on his head, and the rest of the sea patrolling guards around looked at each other and saw this kind of fairy up close. After the fighting scene, these guards were a little at a loss.

And Neptune who stayed in place had a gloomy complexion that was about to drip...

Where is he not clear, the real purpose of the high priest is not human beings, but to gain greater prestige through war, so as to completely suppress the power of Neptune.

The Sea Clan has always had a dual leadership system. Each generation has a sea king and a high priest. The status of the sea king is faintly above the high priest, but since the priests recovered their ability to cast spells, the status of the high priest has risen instantly. Li has already firmly surpassed the Neptune line.

In this regard, Neptune has nothing to do, but the high priest is still not satisfied. This approach is to continuously attack the prestige of Neptune, and completely empty the appearance of Neptune...
