The King

  Chapter 305 Recruitment Order

  Beastman Empire, after listening to the report of the elder Yingman, the five emperors were all blown away. If it wasn't for their sanity, they would have organized masters to slay the dragon.

  The Sea Clan found it, and helped to pull the thread. It's a pity that Maxim helped to pull the hatred thread.

  After finding the location of the King's Court of the Murlocs, the old Eagleman was just about to go to call for a visit, but he was hunted down by the Murlocs and almost couldn't come back.

  Who told Maxim to bring him there?

  The eagle pretends to be a dragon, which seems to scare the shrimp tribe, but the murloc court is more deterrent to the shrimp tribe.

  Maxim's arrest warrant was not spread all over the world, but the sea tribes with a radius of thousands of miles have all received the notice.

   As soon as the red dragon showed up, news spread to the Murloc Court immediately. The angry murloc didn't dare to look for Maxim's bad luck, so he could only vent his anger on the old Yingman who came over.

  Don’t say it’s to show your identity. If the old man Yingman didn’t react fast enough, the whole eagle would be fed to the fish now.

   "The Sea Clan's way, I'm afraid it won't work. Unless we have a bargaining chip in our hands that they can't give up, we can use it to make a deal.

  We don't understand the situation in the sea. Even if an agreement is reached, the Murloc Kingdom may not have the strength to block the transport ships of the human race.

  Everyone knows about Fengyue Port. Obviously we destroyed the channel, but the magicians from the human race came over and cleared the channel faster than we destroyed it.

  According to ancient legend, the more creatures living in the depths of the ocean, the more terrifying they are. The Murloc Kingdom is entrenched in the shallow sea area, and its own strength is not much stronger than it should be! "

   Yingrenhuang said helplessly.

  Things got messed up, but it was Maxim's fault, not his little brother's bad work.

  If they had known that the Red Dragon had a grudge against the murloc tribe after looting, they would never let that idiot help them.

   Send envoys again?

   Just think about it. The sea people do not deal with the mainland races, which is caused by many factors. Without an intermediary, they didn't even have a chance to meet the Murloc King.

  The fact that the human race can navigate the sea is not because of the mercy of the sea race, but because of their strength.

   "Eagle Emperor doesn't need to think too much, it was an attempt, and failure is expected.

  In addition to expecting the intervention of various ethnic groups in the mainland, it is more important to rely on our own efforts.

   In the recent battle, everyone fought very well. Without paying heavy casualties, the human coalition forces were still blocked.

  Next is the stage of strategic stalemate, where the competition is endurance. As long as we can hold our ground and slowly grind against the enemy with the help of favorable terrain, we will be able to win the final victory.

   If you persist for another year at most, the Terran coalition forces will be forced to withdraw from the front line due to internal conflicts! "

   After a pot of chicken soup was poured down, everyone's faces looked much better. But Alex, who spoke to comfort everyone, was crying secretly in his heart.

   I don’t know if it can drag down the Human Race Alliance. Anyway, if it drags on like this, the sparsely populated Beamon clan will most likely be finished first.

  The front line did win a lot of victories, but the protagonists of the war were all orcs, which was equivalent to fighting among themselves.

  As the situation deteriorated, the five royal families had fewer and fewer cannon fodder troops, but more and more orc tribes were being fooled by the human race.

   If this situation continues, it may not be long before it will become a war of orcs against the rule of the five royal families.

   "Just delaying time is not enough, the enemy's family background is much stronger than ours, we must take more active measures to fight back.

   With such a long battle line, it is difficult for the human coalition forces to look after each other head to tail. There are always weak points that can be exploited.

  By the way, the human race seems to be preparing to increase its troops again. A few days ago, we conducted a soul torture on the captured Terran officer. He confessed that the enemy is preparing to recruit more mercenaries to join the battle. "

  As soon as the lion king's voice fell, the faces of all the emperors changed.

   Human mercenaries have never been pure mercenaries. In addition to helping people fight wars, they also opened up many side jobs.

  For example: Before the outbreak of the war, the smuggling team active between the Orc Empire and the Alpha Kingdom, and the gang of evil slave traders.

  Especially the latter, they hate it deeply, and have organized troops to suppress it many times.

  It's a pity that none of these slave traders are slippery. He ran away when he encountered a large army, and reappeared as soon as the suppression operation was over.

   It is useless to kill more people. Driven by profit, there will always be a steady stream of slave hunting teams appearing.

  If the Human Race Alliance is willing to spend, it is estimated that all the human race mercenary regiments in the whole continent will come to kill them.

   These guys are not the army, and they don't have any aristocratic baggage. When fighting a war, it has always been as effective as possible, and various methods can be used without any burden on the heart.

  …

  The plan was discovered by the orcs, which did not affect the release of the reward order at all.

   On October 10, 99989 in the sacred calendar, the Terran Allied Command passed an anonymous vote and passed the "Mercenary Recruitment Order" with an absolute majority.

  Different from the previous recruitment method, this time it is to pay for the head. It's all about killing more and taking more.

   There are naturally different pricing standards for different orcs.

  Adult Beamon Cavalry: 100 gold coins.

  Old, weak, women and children: 20 gold coins.

  Adult Hawkman: 50 gold coins.

  Old, weak, women and children: 5 gold coins.

  Adult Lionman, Bearman, Silvermoon Werewolf: 30 gold coins.

  Old, weak, women and children: 5 gold coins.

   Cannon fodder races are not accepted.

   Such targeted and differentiated pricing is naturally written by Hudson. All the reward prices can stand the test.

   The price of Beamon is the highest. In addition to their strongest combat effectiveness, the more important reason is that there are fewer people in the Beamon family.

  The war has progressed to the present, and the number of their small population is estimated to be less than 200,000, and the number of young and strong cavalry is even smaller.

  Even if all the heads were cut off and exchanged for rewards, it would only be a few million gold coins.

   If a few million gold coins can be used to destroy an orc royal family, no one can refuse.

  Setting such a price was aimed at destroying the Beamon family from the very beginning.

   Eagles are expensive because they can fly and are hard to kill.

  Of course, there is another reason that cannot be said: several powerful forces in the Air Force are deliberately promoting it.

  Everywhere is unavoidable, and the coalition forces are no exception. When the Frankish Kingdom and the Holy See have the same position, normal people will not jump out to oppose it.

  The reward price for the eagle who cannot fly is much more normal, the same price as the other royal families.

  In order to stimulate everyone's enthusiasm, the coalition also promised: the heads of the top ten mercenary regiments who killed the most enemies will be awarded the title of nobility.

  Personal mercenaries who rank in the top 500 can also obtain the title of nobility.

  The rank of knighthood is determined by the specific record.

   Opportunities to cross classes arise. For commoners, this is the best chance to become a nobleman.

  …

  In a deserted aristocratic castle in the Northland, the core members of the July Society gathered again. It's just that they are much more embarrassed this time than before.

   Facts have proved that the assassin is not so easy to participate. Even if they deliberately dumped the blame on the northern nobles, they were still affected by Chiyu.

  The left-behind officials have strengthened security control. Countless members of the July Society were fined and sent to the front line because of idleness.

  The truth is not that they are lazy, but mainly because of the war, which caused their smuggling business and slave hunting business to be suspended.

  In order to avoid being hunted down by the five major families in the North, most members of the July Club used false identities when they were active outside.

   Such identities guaranteed personal safety to a certain extent, and also cut off their way into the army.

   To be precise, this cut off their way to become officers. If you just want to be a soldier, the identity verification is still not strict.

   But that doesn't make any sense. After losing his noble status, it is too difficult to re-enter the noble circle.

  The five major families in the north have great influence in the army. The remnants of these hostile families couldn't get along in the army at all.

   This is mainly Hudson's fault, they are just caught in the water.

  Before the rise of the Koslow family, the five major families didn't care about them, the fallen nobles.

   This situation lasted until Hudson became the coach of the army, and there was a slight respite.

   But it is still full of risks, after all, the county magistrate is not as good as the current one. The commander-in-chief of the army couldn't take care of all aspects. With Hudson watching, the people below didn't dare to deliberately let them die, but the dirty work inevitably fell on them.

  If you want to avoid this kind of suppression, unless you go directly to Hudson's command. In fact, this is also the choice of most of the declining nobles in the Northland.

  But this does not include the leaders of the July meeting. It's not a question of being able to bend or stretch. The main reason is that they have ghosts in their hearts, worrying that they will be ruined when they enter the army, and they will not even have a chance to escape.

   "President, the coalition forces have issued a mercenary recruitment order. This is our best chance to change our identities.

  There are so many mercenaries, no matter how powerful the five major families in the Northland are, they don't have the ability to investigate them one by one.

   Directly earn military exploits as a mercenary, re-enter the ranks of the nobles, temporarily seal the past, and wait for the future to haggle with the enemy! "

  A young man said enthusiastically. It was as if his noble status was already beckoning, and he was just a step away from becoming the new noble lord.

   "Mateo, things are not as simple as you imagined. Just look at the rewards offered by the coalition forces. Even you are tempted. I'm afraid it won't be long before mercenaries from all over the continent will pour in.

  Whether it is becoming the top ten mercenary regiments with the highest combat achievements, or entering the top 500 personal records, they all face cruel competition.

   What's more, those aristocratic gentlemen in the coalition army are really so peaceful and won't reach out?

   Perhaps most of the titles have already been booked in advance, and the rest are left for everyone to compete for! "

  The old man headed shook his head and said.

  He really knows the morals of nobles very well. There are huge benefits, if you don't get a hand in it, is it still a nobleman?

  Even if you don’t play petty tricks, everyone will compete fairly. The network resources and strength possessed by nobles are not comparable to ordinary mercenaries.

  Like those mercenary regiments, if they concentrate their efforts to pile up the military exploits on individuals, they may still be able to compete.

  If everyone wants to seize this opportunity to cross classes and compete with each other without giving in, the final outcome is likely to fall on the battlefield, and only a few lucky ones can go home with the bounty.

  Ordinary mercenaries are like this, and the July Club is no exception. It would not be difficult if we concentrated our efforts to push a few nobles out.

   But the problem is that most of the members of the July Club are the children of nobles. After so many years of silence, everyone wants to return to the noble camp.

   Even if the fief may be a little remote, it can't stop everyone's enthusiasm. If these issues are not dealt with properly, the July Meeting may collapse.

   "President, the situation is not so serious. I have inquired about it. All the new nobles born this time have their fiefdoms in the orc prairie.

  If those nobles want to, relying on their previous military achievements, it is enough for them to install family children, and they will not come to fight with us at all.

   What's more, it is also the orc prairie, and the fiefdoms are also divided into grades and grades. They take the best land and leave us a mouthful of soup too.

   After all, borders still need to be guarded. The orcs have already retreated to the northwest region. It is difficult for the coalition forces to wipe out the enemies. There is still pressure on the future border. This is our opportunity! "

  Mateo fights hard.

   This news was secretly delivered by members of the July Club who joined the coalition forces. There are indeed many great nobles in the coalition army, who have no interest in the orc prairie.

  At the very least, the coalition headquarters is not interested in carve up the orc prairie. If the aristocrats and lords had taken a fancy to this place, the war would not have dragged on for such a long time.

   "President, the current situation in the Alpha Kingdom is tense, and it is not suitable for us to take any action for a long time in the future.

  Everyone is idle, why not let our people try it. Even if the hopeless earl and viscount can give birth to a few barons and knights, it is not a loss to the organization.

  Once the foundation has been laid, we can secretly recruit troops and buy horses, constantly accumulating strength and waiting for the right time!

   Judging from the current situation, the Alpha Kingdom is bound to stage a battle between dragons and tigers after the war. If we provoked it again, there might be a civil war.

   At that time, as long as we jump out and stab the five major families in the North at the critical moment of the struggle between the parties, we will be able to make them decline slowly! "

  As soon as Long Xi's voice fell, everyone's emotions rose. It's really not easy. In order to avenge the five major families in the Northland, everyone has worked hard for so many years, and now they finally see a glimmer of light.

  The old man headed, although smiling, but deep down in his heart, he has already cursed countless times: Idiot! It's all a bunch of idiots!

  The chance of success is based on the stupidity of the enemy. Recruiting soldiers and buying horses is easy to say, but if you really implement it, you will find that this is not something that the little nobles have the capital to play.

  Even if there is an internal change in the Alpha Kingdom, it is not their turn to jump out and pick peaches. At most, it would drag the five major families back.

   There is no way to explain this kind of thing. For the members of the July Society who have blood feuds with the five major families in the Northland, things that can slow down the enemy are already worth doing.

   "That's all! Since you want to try it, then go and try it!

   But this trip is full of risks, you must be careful and never reveal your identity. Contact with each other should be minimized as much as possible.

   If possible, by the way, also provoke the relationship between the five major families and other nobles in the kingdom! "

   After finishing speaking, the old man turned around and left, disappearing from everyone's sight in an instant.

  …

  The influence of the recruitment order continues to spread. Not only organizations like the July Society have been hit, but the mercenary group has been even more affected.

   Originally, I was eating blood from the edge of the knife, and I was working hard wherever I went. Now there is an extra future, which is even more attractive.

  Since the recruitment order of the coalition forces was issued, the entire mercenary world has boiled up. Every day, mercenaries from all over the mainland continue to pour into the orc empire.

   Facing the soaring number of mercenaries, Hudson is also under great pressure. Pay according to performance, but you have to take care of food first!

  The worst thing is that the mercenaries who used to assist in the delivery of food and grass have also come to resign at this moment, and they want to go to the front line to make a fortune.

   There is no way to stop him. If he hadn't been concerned about his position in the coalition forces, everyone would have left him alone.

   As a last resort, Hudson can only draw big cakes for them. Hint to everyone: As long as the food and grass on hand are delivered, it will be half of the logistics department.

   Next, he will go to the battlefield to make a fortune. In the future, when the military exploits are approved and the title is determined, he, the logistics commander, will help everyone win it.

  Relying on coaxing and flicking, they finally calmed people's hearts temporarily, and there was no embarrassing incident of running away halfway.

  However, this can only temporarily relieve the pressure. After these people finish the task at hand and leave, someone has to take over.

  At the military meeting of the logistics department, the faces of all the great nobles were very ugly. Ever since the mercenary recruitment order was issued, everyone watched the coalition forces eat meat in front, but they could only transport food in the rear.

  It feels like I have lost millions of gold coins.

   Even if they want to send someone to take a share of the action, the heavy logistical pressure forcibly cut off all their small thoughts.

   "Honorable Earl of Hudson, it won't work like this!"

   Duke Cavadia spoke first.

   Rolled his eyes secretly, Hudson didn't even want to answer. Everyone knew that this was not going to work, but the problem was that someone had to be responsible for transporting the food.

   "Oh, I don't know what the Duke of Cavadia has to say?"

   Hudson asked pretending to be stupid.

   It was Duke Cavadia's turn to be dumbfounded for a moment. Damn Gao, if there was a way to deal with it, he would have already said it, why bother playing football here?

   "Luckily, everyone paid everything for this war, but all the benefits now have been taken away by the coalition forces.

  In any case, we should have a share of the profits from the front line! "

  After hearing what Duke Cavadia said, Hudson smiled slightly. It's just the disdain in his eyes that still revealed his true thoughts.

  Given a hint to Marquis James, who was on the side, Hudson decisively retreated behind the scenes, watching them perform quietly.

   "Since Your Excellency the Duke has such an idea, why not let Your Excellency be responsible for this matter!"

   James Marquis said with a smile.

   Except for major affairs, the coach Hudson will intervene. He, the deputy commander, completed the communication and coordination between the logistics department and the coalition forces.

  Now if he wants to go to the tiger's mouth to grab food, the hard work will definitely fall on him. Worse still, this is an impossible task.

  The coalition army is not a soft persimmon. Others have eaten the meat in their stomachs, so why should they share it?

  The ball was kicked back again, and the atmosphere in the room became serious.

  Everyone knows that this meeting is not just about watching the coalition forces eat meat and everyone is jealous, but also a deeper power struggle.

  Seeing that the war is coming to an end, it is time to work together for their own interests.

  The Duke of Cavadia's sudden attack was obviously planned for a long time, but Hudson was not easy to mess with, so he moved around casually, and the two deputy commanders started to do it first.

   Everyone is indeed envious of the profits of the coalition forces, but it does not mean that all the great nobles are fools and are willing to be used by the Duke of Cavadia.

  After the ball was kicked back and forth, most of the nobles who had thought about it calmed down.

  The cake at the front line is really big, and there are many people who can share it together. Even if they go there, they may not be able to take much away.

  The simplest example, a Beamon army is placed in front of them, can they eat it?

  Don't say it's a legion, maybe a cavalry regiment is placed in front of you, and there are not many nobles who can eat it.

  However, the reward for destroying a Beamon cavalry regiment is only 100,000 gold coins. For such a small amount of money, it is obviously not worth taking the family's private army to take risks.

   The benefits are huge, and that is based on the fact that the orcs are scattered. When the enemy appears in an organized system, the benefits are equal to the risks.

  In contrast, it is more important to maintain the internal power balance of the kingdom.

  The brief trial failed, and the Duke of Kavadia just kept silent. Obviously, things are not over yet.

   Right now, this is just an appetizer for the changes in the kingdom, and there will be more bad things happening in the future.

   "Okay, this matter is over!

  The situation on the front line is very favorable to us. The destruction of the orc empire is imminent. This is the common wish of the martyrs of the Alpha Kingdom, and no one is allowed to destroy it.

  I hope that everyone will not be blinded by some petty gains, influenced by some greedy idiots, and do stupid things that are not in the interests of the kingdom!

  The next task for everyone is to guarantee the logistics of the frontline coalition forces.

  Considering the practical issues, I will issue an announcement in the name of the logistics department to fix the location where the mercenaries receive food and grass, so as to reduce the pressure on logistics transportation. "

  Hudson unceremoniously buckled the big hat, and brought out the deployment arrangements that were connected by the way.

  Now that it's time to turn your face, it's natural to attack the enemy's reputation. No matter what the Duke of Cavadia thinks, if you want to be stunned, you have to put it on him first.

  It's a pity that Duke Cavadia is not stupid, and he didn't jump out to refute on the spot. Otherwise, if there is a check mark, the label will be even more deadly.

  …
