Heroes of the Invincible Knight Chapter 410

In the parlour of the Duke's Mansion.

Li Cha was receiving the envoy from the capital and the liaison officer for the Eastern Expedition. The liaison officer was sitting on the chair below Li Cha. His leather armor was full of dust and he didn't have time to wipe it off. After any stopover, he found the duke's mansion, and the waiter brought him a cup of tea. The messenger thanked him and drank the tea in one go. He was indeed thirsty. Cha was a little distressed.

However, Li Cha was still very polite, and immediately ordered the waiter to add more tea to the other party.

"General Kuz has worked hard all the way, and he came to my place without taking a break for a while."

At this time, the messenger sitting in the hall was still an old acquaintance of Li Cha. When they fought against the ogres, the two still had some friendship to fight side by side. At that time, Kuz had the strength of a great knight, and was a close associate of Thor. He directly served as the army commander of the newly formed River Valley Army at that time. At the beginning of the battle, his status was still faintly higher than that of Richard.

Even when he finally returned to the capital with Thor, Kuz had a sense of superiority from the people of the capital. In just a few short months, the small nobleman from the North, who at most was considered a middle-class nobleman, was now a master of the famous Manchu Kingdom, possessing the same status as the adults he followed, even in terms of strength. Still more than that.

The Duke of the North, the Guardian of the Two Realms, the No. 1 Powerhouse in the Kingdom, the illustrious military exploits, and the role of the giant dragon of unknown origin, any of these identities can only be looked up by Kuz, not to mention the combination of these identities. This made Kurz, who had seen many big people with Sol, appear a little cautious in front of Richard.

Kuz, who was sitting in the starting position, was even a little stunned when he heard what Li Cha said. Although he had been hearing about Li Cha in the capital, he was already prepared, but when he was in front of Li Cha, it was still difficult for him to see the person in front of him. The duke who was too young overlapped with the previous little noble in the north.

However, Kurz quickly adjusted his position. Before leaving, Sol had already told him to keep enough respect for Richard. After listening to Richard's question, Kurz immediately stood up from his position. When he got up and answered, he didn't take the attitude of the envoy from the capital at all.

"Lord Li Cha is too polite. It's just a matter of military affairs. I have to see you as soon as possible. If there is any interruption, please forgive me."

"Sit down and talk, sit down and talk, we are all comrades who have fought side by side, General Kurz doesn't have to be so restrained."

Richard just said he didn't need to, but he was actually quite satisfied with Kuz's attitude. It wasn't that Richard wanted to show his prestige in front of this half old friend, but Kuz's attitude was more representative of The attitude of the capital.

Now Kuz's appearance is obviously due to some kind of instruction from the decision makers of the capital. They have correctly placed Richard in the position of a collaborator at the same level, instead of taking orders to Richard without force. posture, which is important.

"I don't know what General Kuz is doing in the Northland this time?"

After Richard finished speaking, Kurz did not sit back, but still stood in the hall. Richard did not continue to struggle with this small issue, but asked Kurz directly.

Facing Richard's well-informed question, Kurz didn't go around in circles, but just looked to see if there were still people on both sides.

Richard also waved his hand intentionally, and the waiters on both sides took the initiative to exit the hall, and soon only Richard and Kurz were left in the hall.

"Lord Richard, the Eastern Expedition is imminent, and the 100,000 elites of the Northern Route Army have been prepared. Your Majesty and Lord Sol asked me to remind you to prepare for battle. After that, I will stay in your army as a liaison officer to coordinate you and the army. cooperation."

No wonder a great knight like Kuz should act as the messenger. The matter involves top secret matters such as the Eastern Expedition. I am afraid that many great nobles in the country are still kept in the dark, so only the cronies of the royal party like Kuz are qualified. Participating in the plan in the final stage, it is indeed very suitable for him to urge Richard and serve as the liaison officer.

"General Kurz came to serve as this liaison officer to help convey military orders?"

Li Cha asked the question directly, just to know if Kurz and the kingdom had any idea of meddling in command. If Kurz wanted to dictate his actions, then Li Cha had to find a way to make the other party quieter. Fortunately, Ren and Sol in the capital are not unreliable people, so naturally they have already considered this matter.

As soon as Richard asked, Kurz immediately replied:

"The command of the Northern Route Army is handed over to Mr. Richard. Naturally, all actions are decided by Mr. Richard. I am only responsible for transmitting information between the Northern Route Army and the Central Route Army, and will never interfere with specific actions. Sir Richard."

Richard nodded and was satisfied with Kurz's answer. There should be basic contact and cooperation, but it would be absolutely impossible for Kurz to give Richard any instructions.

"Then how to act?"

"The attack will be launched after the fall. The specific time will wait for the news of Lord Saul after the Lord arrives at the North Road Army. Now the five legions of the North Road Army, 100,000 people have arrived at the reserved position, and we just wait for Lord Li Cha to lead the giant dragon to the place. already."

In addition to serving as the liaison officer, Kurz naturally has the task of urging Richard to leave. It is almost autumn, and it is not far from the scheduled time to launch an attack. Richard is still in the north, Ren and Sol Naturally, he was also a little anxious. After all, the actions of the 100,000-strong army could not be perfectly commanded immediately after Li Cha was in place. There was still a process of familiarizing himself with his subordinates, and he had to arrive some time in advance.

Facing the urging in Kurz's words, Li Cha was not annoyed either. He had no intention of breaking his promise and was willing to cooperate.

"Don't worry, General Kuz will rest in Miracle City for a while. I need to make arrangements for the Northland. When the autumn begins, I will bring the dragon to the front line of Dragon Breath Pass on time."

"In addition to the dragon, I will also lead some of my men to the Dragon's Breath Pass to participate in the battle, and they will arrive before the expedition."

Although the condition of negotiating with Ren is that he will only bring some elites and dragons to the battle, Richard still intends to bring some special troops to participate in the battle.

Most heroes and high-level system troops are mandatory. In addition, because the main attack direction of the Northern Route Army is mainly a mountain forest, Li Cha also plans to bring 10,000 specially trained kobolds and Gru who are training. Thousands of half-elf forest rangers, they should also be able to play a greater role in the dense forest of the North Road.

"Well, then I will report the intention of Lord Richard directly to His Majesty and Lord Sol."

After Richard promised to arrive at the Dragon's Breath Pass within a month, Kuz did not continue to urge him without interest. Instead, under the leadership of the waiter, he found a room in the Duke's mansion and settled down temporarily...

"Go and get General Gru to come."

"Forget it, I'll go by myself."

After letting Kuz down to settle down, the first person Richard thought of was Gru. Richard had done his homework on the route of the Northern Route Army he was going to lead.

Not to mention that the road to the North Road is rugged, it also has to pass through the dense northern forest area with complex terrain and dense jungles, which is not suitable for large corps to fight. The camp is just to prevent humans from attacking through the jungle.

The guard force is not strong, but it is not easy to break through, because the large corps in the northern dense forest is not easy to unfold, and the human army cannot exert its advantages in quantity and corps combat. In small-scale conflicts, the orc army can occupy an absolute advantage most of the time.

And after leaving the jungle, they went directly to the eastern plateau. Although the terrain is flat and the orcs seem to be safe, it is only necessary for humans to beat the orc army in the field. Not much. In many cases, four or five legions of humans combined cannot beat two orc legions. Orcs can mobilize two ordinary garrison legions at will to block the human army infiltrating from the jungle.

Only when humans were still eating the remains of the Aragonese era more than two hundred years ago could they organize capable forces to enter the eastern plateau occupied by the orcs through the dense forest in the north, and contain the power of the orcs. Defensive humans simply do not have the ability to organize forces out of the jungle.

Now Ren and Sol have handed over this task to Li Cha. Obviously, they are interested in the many elites in Richard's hands, who are capable of leading the Northern Route Army to break through the camp of the orcs in the dense forest. As long as the army appears on the plateau, Li Even if the Northern Route Army under the inspection has achieved the basic goal, it will be a surprise as to what it can achieve later.

Soon, Richard appeared in the training camp designed by Gru himself, and a half-elf of 5,000 flag regiments was being trained.

This training camp was built in the middle of a jungle according to Gru's requirements, and there were rows of obstacle facilities in the middle. At a glance, Li Cha could see half-elf soldiers lining up to pass the obstacles.

"who?"

The sudden appearance of Li Cha surprised the sentinel who was guarding next to him. The sentinel raised the weapon in his hand subconsciously, and put it down again after discovering that it was Li Cha.

"Lord Richard!"

Richard nodded at the sentry and continued to observe the training of the half-elves.

Although these half-elves have not been trained for a long time, their movements are already very good. These 5,000 people are all carefully selected elites. Most of them were hunters in the half-elf tribe before, and their skills are good. It's just that there is a lack of systematic training, and even some of them are simply half-elf scouts drawn from various legions, and they are making rapid progress. They only need a certain amount of running-in under Gru's training.

It's just that their natural physical strength and strength are weaker than that of humans. Although they are not as exaggerated as kobolds, compared with young humans, half-elf soldiers generally have only 70-80% of the strength and physical strength of human soldiers.

Therefore, most of these elf soldiers also wore some iron-inlaid leather armor, which was lighter and easier to march in the jungle, and most of the weapons in their hands were lighter weapons such as scimitars and armor-piercing daggers.

However, the advantages of the half-elves are also obvious. They are all natural archers. They are very good at shooting arrows. However, due to the limitation of their strength, most of them cannot open heavy bows. Therefore, they have no range advantage in plain combat. The talent of the elves is useful. The two sides can often reach a distance of more than ten meters before discovering each other. At this distance, even blowing arrows may be able to hit the enemy.

"Lord Richard!"

Here, Gru also noticed the arrival of Li Cha, and immediately rushed to the front of Li Cha.

"How are these half-elves trained?"

"It's more troublesome than I thought, and the soldiers are a little unqualified."

Richard seems to have trained a good half-elf army, but in Gru's eyes, it is an unqualified existence.

"How to say?"

"Compared to the Ranger Legion I brought before, their foundation is too poor. They are generally weak in physical strength and weak in strength. Most of them can't even use heavy scimitars. They can only use light scimitars and rapiers to fight. The performance of archery is also remarkable."

"To be honest, my lord, if these soldiers are selected according to my previous standards, I am afraid that less than 500 soldiers are qualified soldiers."

It can't be said that Gru's standards are strict. After all, Gru brought soldiers from Erathia before. Those guys' basic physical fitness is a bit stronger than that of the creatures on this continent. These half-elves are not even as good as ordinary humans. Existence, it is only reasonable to be despised by Gru.

"Then what are you going to do?"

Since Gru has proposed it, Richard believes that he has also considered a solution.

"In the forest combat, their weaknesses will be reduced, but they will still exist. My idea is to cooperate with the army of the city in the forest to form a combat team. One team is matched with a phantom shooter, and two war dancers are left. The nine people in the group have these soldiers to combine~www.mtlnovel.com~ so that they not only have a certain lethality, but also can deal with more enemies."

"Um"

Li Cha nodded, this method is to use it as a cannon fodder, to spread the pressure on the phantom shooters and war dancers in the team, and create opportunities for the phantom shooters and war dancers.

"How much time will it take to complete the training?"

"It will take at least one month to become familiar with the tactics to form combat effectiveness. If there is enough time, it will be better to train for about three months."

"It's not that long. These troops will finish training within three weeks. You can train harder and ask the logistics side to prepare more rice and meat. After three weeks, the army will be dispatched."

"Yes, Mr. Richard!"

If you go into battle in advance, the casualties of the troops will definitely be larger, but Richard doesn't have so much time, so he can only let these soldiers grow in the battle.
