My Empire War Game

"What?!" The woman with the cloak looked at Su Lun in surprise.

When can a pioneering territory defeat the army of orcs, and these armies with iron armor, well-equipped and extraordinary strength are private soldiers of the pioneering territory? What a joke, these elite soldiers in front of them are no worse than the most powerful Knights of Plantagenet in the capital.

"Sorry, Your Excellency Su Lun." The woman quickly apologized after reacting.

"It doesn't matter." Su Lun replied casually. He didn't care much about these nobles. It would be good to express some kindness appropriately. There was no need to please them.

Seeing Su Lun's expression, these nobles were more cautious.

"Respected lord of Zhenbei City, Your Excellency Su Lun, we started to flee after the city was broken. We have been hiding in the east and west for the past few days. I wonder if you can prepare a place for us to rest and eat." This lady is done. A standard noble etiquette, then pleaded.

"Okay." Su Lun nodded in agreement.

"Thank you so much, Your Excellency Su Lun, you are a real gentleman." After obtaining permission, these people were obviously relieved. Now they don't have to worry about being caught by orcs, and they don't have to wander in the wild. After a few days in exile, they have suffered enough, and now they can finally have a place to rest.

Su Lun beckoned and asked a squire to prepare a few horses and a rudimentary carriage for them, and then asked them to retreat with the team. For safety reasons, Su Lun arranged a few barbarian warriors around them. These barbarian giant axe berserkers who have risen to the top are all third-order extraordinary professionals. No matter what these people think, they can't afford it any spray.

These nobles were not dissatisfied with Su Lun's arrangement, and they also understood Su Lun's intention.

The army soon returned to the Blackstone Fortress, and Su Lun asked the nobles to arrange rooms and food and no longer pay attention. After all, he is very busy now.

It is not easy for more than 10,000 human slaves to be sent back to Zhenbei City. Fortunately, Su Lun now has enough manpower to divide these refugees into a small team of ten people, a squadron of a hundred people, and then deliver them in batches, one batch One thousand people were transported, and the number of troops in charge of escorting was two hundred.

The distance from Black Rock Fortress to Zhenbei City is about 300 miles. If it is an army march, it will take only four or five days to arrive. If it is cavalry, it will be even faster, but now it is transporting slaves, and it will take at least a week for these people to arrive. That is to say, it takes at least ten days for a round trip.

However, there is no way to do this. After all, it is not safe to put all the slaves in the Blackstone Fortress. If the orcs think about it, it will be troublesome. Moreover, these human slaves were half-threatened by Su Lun and half-forced to Zhenbei City. There must be many people who are unwilling and have a very high chance of escaping.

However, after leaving the Blackstone Fortress and arriving in the northern wilderness, these people have nowhere to run even if they want to. Although the wilderness has been cleaned up many times by the soldiers of Zhenbei City, the kobold robbers, goblins, gnolls, etc. It grows wildly like a weed.

Without the protection of the soldiers of Zhenbei City, it is a problem for these ordinary humans to survive in the wilderness for a few days. More importantly, the Black Rock Fortress is the only way to enter the Kingdom of Florence from the northern wasteland, and there are people from Surun guarding here. After all, even if the slaves ran away, they would not be able to return to Florence.

As for learning the orcs to go directly across the Nafel Mountains, even the orcs with extraordinary strength suffered heavy casualties, not to mention these ordinary human beings, this road is completely lifeless.

The escort's army, Suren, selected fifty archers, fifty pikemen, and a hundred harpies, and announced in front of the human slaves that as long as they escaped, the one who escaped would return. Harpy deal. Hearing Su Lun's decision, those harpies danced back and forth in the air excitedly, and their eyes looked back and forth on these human efforts. Even Su Lun's eyes had a creepy feeling.

A hundred harpies, even a knight, will be squeezed into dregs. Those human slaves who were planning to escape even broke out in a cold sweat, and directly threw the idea of ​​escaping into the clouds, which was too ruthless.

Seeing the silence of these humans, Su Lun smiled inwardly, and then arranged for the manpower to start the delivery according to the previous plan. One thousand people left Zhenbei City in batches, and it took a whole day for more than ten thousand people to evacuate.

Just when Su Lun arranged to evacuate the slaves, the nobles were also carefully observing the sudden rise of the lord of Zhenbei City. In their opinion, Su Lun's rise was too fast, and it only took more than a year. He built a desolate pioneering territory into a city, and it was also called the Pearl of the North. As a noble of the North, they were curious about him, and they were also coveted by his sugar-making craftsmanship.

It's just that when these people really came into contact with Zhenbei City, they had a clearer understanding of their power.

"Your Excellency, they are migrating the people of our Winter City! We can't let them do this!" After seeing Su Lun taking those people out of Blackrock Fortress in batches, these nobles were not calm. Although they are nobles, they never cared about the peasants in their territory before, but if all the refugees are taken away, then they will be left with nobles, what a shit!

No one farms for you, no one works for you, you can't even collect taxes, there is a large area of ​​land that you can't even eat, and you don't even have people to oppress or exploit. No one wants to be such an aristocrat. So after seeing Zhenbeicheng's actions, they subconsciously wanted to block it.

"Quiet me!" The veiled woman sternly scolded: "Pay attention to where you are now, this is not Winter City. Winter City has been conquered by orcs, and now we are just a group of poor worms."

"What are you doing? Rush over and tell him that this is our subject? Then ask him to return these subjects to us?" The woman's sarcastic voice sounded particularly harsh.

"Then we can't just watch them take our subjects away!" said one of the noble men anxiously.

The masked woman frowned slightly, her crisp and sweet voice had a seductive charm, she looked coldly at the middle-aged man who spoke: "Since we abandoned the city and fled alone, we have No longer their lord."

"And are you sure you want to argue with that Lord Suren?" The masked woman raised her head slightly, looked at the barbarian warriors not far away, and continued: "Have you seen those barbarian warriors, do you know their How strong is it?"

"Just some barbarians, how strong they can be." Another noble said disdainfully, in Florence, those barbarians with well-developed limbs and simple minds were generally looked down upon. But they do have the strength to look down on the barbarians

"Some barbarians?" The masked woman shook her head, looking at the man like she was looking at an idiot again: "Loke, tell them."

"Yes, Lord Count Ilya." The middle-aged knight bowed and saluted, then turned to the others and said, "I won't say much about the other soldiers, as far as that barbarian warrior is concerned, his strength is not inferior to mine at all. , and according to my observations, there are at least a hundred of these barbarian warriors."

Hiss, so scary! Everyone took a deep breath.

In fact, Locke still put gold on his face. Although he is also a knight commander and a third-order extraordinary professional, if he is a one-on-one with those barbarian giant axe berserkers, he is probably the one who loses. These savages have maddening skills. After maddening, the barbarian warriors have lower sanity, but their fighting ability is stronger.

"Locke, are you telling the truth? Those barbarians have third-order strength?" One of the nobles swallowed and asked in shock.

"Of course it's true! Do you think I'm joking?" Locke said coldly, looking at the nobles.

"Sorry." Seeing Locke's expression, the noble quickly apologized.

"Locke, can you talk about the strength of the lord's army in Zhenbei City?" a nobleman next to him couldn't help asking.

Locke glanced at them and said, "I can only tell you what I saw, but I can't guarantee that they are all correct."

"It's okay to say it, it's just a reference."

"The number of troops in these northern towns is about 5,000 people, including not only barbarians but also some centaurs and half-elves, and the number of humans is about 4,000 people. The Lord Suren has a very high reputation among these soldiers. The army consisted mainly of pikemen and archers, with some centaurs."

"In this army, there are a lot of professionals with the strength in the third rank. You don't need me to say that the half-elf archers are powerful. You also know that there is the Lord Lord who can command the harpies, although a single harpie is powerful. The strength is not strong, but their air superiority is too strong."

"If you want to defeat this army, you need at least a regular army of 50,000 people to be sure."

"50,000 regular army? So powerful!" A look of shock flashed across the masked woman's face. She didn't expect Zhenbei City's army to be so powerful.

"Half-elves, centaurs, barbarians, and harpies!" Several nobles couldn't help but exclaimed. "How did he get so many races to live together peacefully?"

"Half-elf, centaur, these are powerful races, how could they join the backcountry of Zhenbei City?"

"Parker, pay attention to your words. Zhenbei City is not a remote country. On the contrary, he is much richer than us, even when Winter City was not breached before."

"I really don't understand how he got a firm foothold in the Northland Wasteland. I heard that he has only been a pioneering lord for one year, which means that it took him only one year to develop and grow to this point."
