That’s Hilarious

Chapter 23: Northwind Fortress

When the orcs attacked the northern pioneering lands, the North Wind Fortress received information, most of which were calls for help from those lords. The whole article is about how many orcs there are. If you really believe their nonsense, then the number of orcs in this attack will exceed 50,000.

But this is obviously impossible. According to the reports of the scattered scouts, there are probably only a few thousand orcs. What makes people strange is that some orcs carried humans to the orc prairie.

After receiving the biography from the flying pigeon from the Northwind Fortress five days ago, the nearly 50-year-old Duke Osborne issued a call for the first time, and then led the 5,000 cavalry of the Wind Army to support the Northwind Fortress . And ordered other legions to prepare food and grass supplies, ready to help Northwind Fortress at any time.

In the past five days, out of concern for the safety of their family's territory, many nobles who were recruited only left a small number of soldiers at home, almost all the soldiers they brought in. It was almost time to see the people, and it was estimated that they would not be able to make it in a while, so let them go slowly, and Duke Osborn held the first military meeting.

He threw on the table the information he had collected so far, and the letter for help that North Wind Fortress had received before. After all the nobles read it, they unanimously concluded that except for Baron Cowan's information, everyone else exaggerated the number of orcs.

Although the practice is common to them, they say they understand it. But what made them intolerable was that, according to the scouts' information, they believed that the orcs did not intend to attack in a big way, at least for now, the orcs did not intend to.

They began to complain that their trip was in vain this time, costing a lot of military expenses, and in the end it turned into a verbal abuse. Duke Osborn, who couldn't bear it, pushed away the chair and left on the spot.

This large-scale mobilization of the family army and the recruitment of vassals must have alarmed the capital, and how to report the information to the orcs has become the main problem at present.

Judging from the information collected so far, the orcs should not be ready to attack the Northwind Fortress, but this kind of thing cannot be decided by just judgment. He needs real and reliable evidence to prove it, which is also a headache for Duke Osborn. place.

He really couldn't think of a way to do it, so he simply sent all the information, letters for help, and his own analysis to send soldiers to the capital.

At this moment, someone reported that the northern pioneers had arrived. When he asked how many soldiers they had left, he got a dumbfounded answer.

The sergeant told him that the nobles came in carriages, with only a dozen knights accompanying them.

He grabbed the sergeant's neck on the spot, and asked him to repeat it with a stern beard. It turned out that no one could speak while being strangled, and when Duke Osborne realized it, the sergeant had collapsed to the ground.

He called the guards to take the sergeant down to see the doctor, and then he came to the city gate, and he saw a scene that made him grit his teeth.

A nobleman was sitting on a carriage, holding a whip in his hand, beating a soldier who asked a question. The soldier blushed, but also stood motionless.

I also saw many nobles from the North who dared to come, but for them, this kind of thing is more than happy to see it happen, because it is because he and the others "grow their faces".

Duke Osborn immediately ordered the arrest of these nobles. The soldiers of Northwind Fortress were still hesitating. Although they were also the Duke's private soldiers, the peace of these years had worn away their will to fight, and the unscrupulous nobles had planted in their hearts. seeds of fear.

However, the soldiers of the Gale Wind Legion did not have so many concerns. They rushed forward like wolves, and took down all the ten nobles and knelt down in front of Duke Osborn.

After seeing Duke Osborn, these nobles stopped shouting, and some even smiled.

Seeing this disgusting smile, Duke Osborn ordered the soldiers to throw these nobles into the dungeon to wake up.

"You don't have the right to do this, Eric Osborn." Obviously, the noble couldn't stand this insult, so he just called Duke Osborn's full name without even adding the title of Duke.

Other nobles also agreed.

A soldier of the Osborn family slapped the idiot on the spot and swelled his face. Now he was honest and just looked at the soldier who beat him with vicious eyes, as if to make this face Carved into the mind.

"I will report to the king about your loss of territory... If I had the right, you would have been beheaded now."

Listening to Duke Osborn's murderous words, they finally got up and stopped struggling and let the soldiers drag them to the dungeon.

The news has not always made Duke Osborn angry these days. A few days ago, Silas, a child of the Kovan family, entered the castle under the protection of two soldiers.

According to him, his family castle is located at the forefront of the north, and his parents chose to live and die with the castle, but only sent him out. At the last moment, the mercenary group hired by his family rushed back. This mercenary group rescued him once before. They will definitely win. His parents will definitely survive according to his words~www.wuxiaspot. com~ Although he doesn't believe they will survive, he nods and says they will.

It's just that, judging from the fact that they haven't arrived yet, the nobles at the most frontier may have all died.

When can these nobles change, there are some stupid thoughts that someone is in front of them.

Duke Osborne remembered what happened today and knew that these imprisoned nobles were hopeless.

......

the next day.

Looking at the north wind fortress built on the mountain in front of you, the towering mountains on both sides are endless, and you can't see the end at a glance. Even if I have seen it countless times in my memory, I have to be moved by his majesty.

The North Wind Fortress was built during the First Empire period. At that time, it was said that it took 200,000 people to build it for more than 20 years, and it was built after hollowing out several stone mountains at that time.

Its city wall is as high as fifteen meters, which is a daunting number. You must know that even the largest Gelong is only about ten meters. When dealing with such a giant beast, from the crenel, the cold light is shining. Thick dragon hunter.

With such a height of the city wall, coupled with the powerful dragon hunters, it is almost impossible for the orcs to be attacked from the outside. This may be the strength of human beings.

The red-bottomed golden dragon flag belonging to the royal family on the city wall fluttered in the wind, representing that the fortress belonged to the Kingdom of Rhodes, and next to it was the yellow-bottomed red lion flag belonging to the Duke of the North, which represented that the fortress’ top commander was from the Kingdom of Rhodes. Osborn family.

The city gates were closed, and the city walls were crowded with people, looking like they were preparing for a battle. Seeing Roland's face changed, his heart was not good. If the orcs were going to attack in a big way, the city gate would obviously not be opened for them alone, and it was impossible for them to roam the world.
