Heroes of the Invincible Knight

Northland

When the early spring came, there was a busy scene everywhere. The farmers started farming very actively. Although there was a bit of drought this spring, the field was not too dry. The crops planted earlier had successfully sprouted a little green seedlings.

The reason is naturally the complete water conservancy system in the Northland. During the slack training period, the farmers also built water canals in their villages under the leadership of the village administrators.

If they were under the rule of the nobles in various places, they would not be so motivated, but since Richard took back most of the land of the nobles in the Northland and distributed them all to the farmers in the Northland, their enthusiasm has been raised to the extreme. The lord's farming is completely different from farming his own field. The vigor of plowing the land makes people doubt that they can dig through the land.

Transforming most of the serfs into self-cultivating farmers, only the nobles suffered, but what Richard got was tens of millions of people who burst out with great enthusiasm.

Under Richard's management, the Northland was governed like an iron barrel. Except for the farmers, the nobles who originally lived in the Northland, whether they were willing or not, had joined the Hunter family's system. After all, they followed the Hunter family. , at least the castle and property can be retained. Although they have lost control of the land, most of the nobles still live a life of wealth that is difficult for farmers to match.

If you resist, the giant dragon in the sky will visit you, not only will you lose control of the land, but you will also lose your wealth and life.

Therefore, after Li Cha captured Piaoxue City without bloodshed, all the nobles in the Northland, no matter what they thought in their hearts, could only hold their noses and recognize the Hunter family's land policy, handed over most of their land, and then looked at Henry. The officials of the special family distributed the land to the original group of lowly mud legs.

The Northland nobles who joined the Hunter family in the early days are okay, such as the Nader family and the Bender family. These people who joined the Hunter family system early, although they also have to hand over their own land, but these families When I got on the bus early, many of the children in the family were working under Richard. When there was a shortage of talents in the early days, these noble children were promoted quickly in the Hunter family's army.

Viscount Nader's eldest son has even become the banner chief of the Hunter family's dragon cavalry unit, and has entered the Grand Knight rank with the support of the Hunter family's resources.

Baron Bender even directly joined the Silver Wing Legion himself. He also took the position of head of the banner with the strength of a great knight, and many children in his family also held some middle and low-level military positions.

Although the system in the Northern Lands has given the common people a chance to compete fairly, the nobles still have an absolute advantage in comparison. As long as they are not raised and disabled dudes, their physical and cultural backgrounds will be higher than those of the common people. The two sides are not at the same starting line at all.

And the loss of those lands is secondary to the nobles who took refuge in the Nader family and the Bender family in the early days. The key point is that most of the nobles who took refuge in the early days still circled some land in Miracle City and bought houses. .

When housing prices in Miracle City skyrocketed, the Hunter family ate a lot of meat, and the families following these vassals drank some soup. Not only did the family wealth not shrink due to the loss of land, but it also doubled several times. This group of nobles is naturally the most loyal supporters of the Hunter family.

But in this kind of big change, more old rentier classes still lose their interests. After all, it involves the redistribution of cakes. If they don’t take some of them, how can Richard have new cakes to hand over to the common people? What about class?

Most of these families whose interests have been damaged can only resent in their hearts, let alone take action, and dare not even show their dissatisfaction. Hit the egg against the diamond.

However, there seemed to be some accidents in the Northland in early spring.

In the woods to the east of Miracle City, dozens of strong and strong men are hidden in it. Although these people are dressed like caravan guards, their spirit is much stronger than ordinary guards. If you look at it wisely, It should be able to see that these people are probably not ordinary guards.

"Master Varen, after we succeed, can we really leave the Northland?"

"Don't worry, as long as we catch Old Hunter, our mission will be successful. When we go around Qingshi Mountain and go to the Central Great Plains, we will all be marquises. Isn't it better than being angry in the North?"

"But, can the orcs win this time?"

"Why can't we win? Even the dragon's breath pass can't stop the orcs. The kingdom's elite are all lost in the dragon's breath pass. Do you still expect those garrison troops to defend the central plain?"

"Old Hunter is at least a great knight. Every time he comes to hunt, he is accompanied by Nader's sycophant. Can we take it down?"

"And that adult, let's lead the way and fight."

While speaking, Varen also looked back at the person in the gray burqa, obviously under the sun, looking at the other party, Varen felt inexplicably a little bit cold.

"There is no turning back when we start the bow. This time we take down the old Hunter and go to the Central Great Plains to become a marquis. Do you still want to be angry in this northern land? Those untouchables in the past dare to look at us now. "

Hearing some hesitation in his companion's tone, Varun re-established his army's morale with a few words.

After hearing Varun's words, the other party finally nodded bitterly, firming his mind.

…

"Lord Sauter, according to the old hunter, there should be giant bears in this generation. This winter is over, and it is estimated that there will be giant bears coming out of their caves to look for food. If we are lucky, we might meet them."

"Hey, that's a good relationship. During this period of time, I always hunted some pheasants and roe deer to go back. It's not fun at all. Today I have to go back with a headhunter."

"Old Nader, you are familiar with this generation, you must find me a giant bear today."

Although the forest to the east of Miracle City was not the fiefdom of the Nader family before, the Nader family is indeed quite close. Logically speaking, it is indeed more familiar than Sauter, but not everyone likes hunting like Sauter. Viscount De was fine, so he wouldn't go into the woods like Sauter.

However, in order to play happily with Sauter, Viscount Nader still learned some common sense of hunting, and took the initiative to familiarize himself with the terrain of the surrounding forests. Hearing what Viscount Sauter said, he nodded his head.

"I try my best, I try my best."

"Whatever, I even brought the tent. If there are no more large prey this time, we will stay in this forest at night."

Nader felt a little bitter in his heart, Sauter was too addicted, and hunting with him was really not an easy job.

Although there is no danger in the woods, the conditions are always many times worse than those in Miracle City. Bears, wolves, tigers and leopards are not a threat, but insects and flies are quite a headache.

However, Nader did not dare to object to Sauter's opinion. Who told his son to be the most powerful figure in the entire Northland? He could only follow Sauter's words, hoping to meet some high-grade beasts earlier, so that Sauter went back after finishing his addiction.

When Sauter came out to hunt, he didn’t bring many people with him. As long as he had a champion knight to protect him and a dozen personal guards, according to Sauter, if he brought too many people, hunting would be no fun at all. .

When the two were chatting easily, they didn't realize at all that there were still people in the Northland who dared to break ground on Tai Sui's head and came to ambush Sauter. As the team continued to deepen, the danger had slowly arrived.

…

"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

"Enemy attack!"

"Protect Master Soter!"

"Ah, ah, ah..."

Just now, Sauter just shot a hare with an arrow, and before the soldiers beside him had time to retrieve Sauter's spoils, suddenly a dense rain of arrows shot from around, instantly killing Sauter. His personal guards were knocked down in half.

Only Sauter himself still has it. Viscount Nader and the champion knight, relying on their own formidable strength, were unscathed in this kind of short-distance crossbow shooting.

Originally, although these crossbows were powerful, they were not enough to achieve great results in one round. After all, the armor of the North Land was of high quality, and the personal guards around Sauter would not lack these good equipment. Normally, the inner and outer double layers It is not a big problem for the guards on the armor set to take a few arrows hard, and they won't fall half down in one shot.

However, Sauter brought people out to hunt, not to go to the battlefield. Among the people present, except for the champion knight who was still wearing heavy armor, everyone else, including Sauter, chased the prey for physical strength. Wearing leather armor or even ordinary civilian clothes.

This time, he was attacked suddenly, and the casualties were a bit heavy.

"Swoosh, whoosh, whoosh..."

Regardless of the casualties caused by the ambushes, when they saw that there were still people standing on the field, they would shoot another round of arrows.

At the beginning, the guards who were lucky enough to escape the arrows fell down a lot, and although Sauter, who was being taken care of intensively, did not fall down, he still had a few arrows stuck in his body. Although they were not fatal, they were really embarrassed.

"Damn it, they're on that hill over there! Must go up, or it'll be endless."

It was easy for Viscount Nader to say this, but it was a bit difficult to operate.

The ambush man was quite familiar with the terrain, so he found such a good place to ambush. He and Sauter happened to be in a low ground, and there were no bunkers to hide around, and there were few big trees nearby.

The guy with the cold arrow above can see clearly below, and they can't even retreat.

"Buzz!"

With a soft sound from the lower level, a giant arrow more than three meters flew out of the forest above and rushed in the direction of Viscount Soter, and then hit the nearby stone with a "boom".

Why the hell is there such a thing!

This time, not only Viscount Nader, but also Salter jumped. If this thing hit him, even he would be seriously injured.

"Kill it!"

"Follow me!"

At critical moments, Sauter still has the determination of a brave general. After a little observation, he knows that running is not easy. The opponent's long-range firepower, if he turns around and runs, he may be shot like a hedgehog. But if he was hit from behind by the bed crossbow-level thing just now, he would not be sure of escaping.

Besides, if you ambushed yourself in this place in the Northland, the number of opponents would definitely not be too many, otherwise you should have been discovered long ago. Only small-scale teams can ambush you in batches into this forest by using makeup as a cover. Depending on one's own strength, it is not certain who will kill who.

Yes, it's normal for Mr. Sauter to have this confidence. With so many resources in Richard's hands, it is impossible to treat his old father badly anyway. Sauter has already advanced to the earth with the power of knight potion not long ago. Warren made a mistake in judging Sauter's strength.

"kill!"

The personal guards who followed Sauter had no problem in loyalty. Even if the situation was dangerous, seeing that Sauter was about to attack, he immediately got up from the ground, raised the short blade in his hand, rushed forward with the hunting bow, and shot back from time to time. He shot two arrows into the woods, trying to suppress the opponent.

Of course, among those who counterattacked, besides Sauter, there was another equally powerful fighter, the champion knight who was sent to protect Sauter.

Although the woods were not suitable for the minimum, the champion knight was still very fast. Against the rain of arrows, he rushed into the woods where the assassins were ambushing in front of Sauter.

"Hey!"

"Ah, ah!"

"Give it to me!"

"They are few!"

"kill!"

In the core territory of the Northland, a small-scale but extremely tragic fight unexpectedly took place.
