Finally, two days after Roland triggered this incident, the soldiers on guard at the outermost perimeter finally discovered the massive army of refugees.
"Your Highness, a signal flare has risen from the northeast!" A soldier came in to report.
"Northeast? What a coincidence, we crossed the Centaur territory perfectly..." Roland turned the hilt of his sword and smiled. The system is really "understanding"! Is it okay to ride on this wave of refugees?
"Inform the troops! Otherwise, we will be in trouble if we are accidentally injured! After all, Tuput Forest is only less than 20 miles away from us." Mr. Radil said at the side.
"Well, let's go and notify them. If there is a fight, both of them will suffer losses. Try to avoid unnecessary losses." Roland nodded. He didn't want the troops and the refugees to rush together. The scene... was so touching!
"Prepare for war! Prepare for war!" Marcus was shouting from the top of the city not far away, instructing the soldiers to carry all kinds of city defense materials. Although no one expected to use them, they absolutely couldn't live without them.
"Really... it has to be like this? They are also our tribe..." Nyx looked at the busy defenders on the city with guilt, as if all this was her fault.
"It's not your fault, dear... We have no choice. I have to be responsible for the residents of the city. We are not qualified to sacrifice these already happy people in order to save these suffering people. They are not wrong!
But...I am the king! I need to prepare for the worst...I'm sorry...my Grand Duke." After Roland kissed Nyx gently, he tightened his cloak and walked towards the city.
Nyx stood quietly at the foot of the city and looked at the man standing on the city wall looking into the distance. She could feel the pressure on his shoulders. He was carrying the hope of a country. He had to use his narrow back to carry this.
A piece of land.
"I have to carry half of the country, and I have to protect this city wall..." Roland sighed as he caressed the wall tiles covered with magic patterns, and looked to the northeast.
"Oh God! Retreat! Get out of here!" The retreating soldiers in the front greeted everyone they met behind. When they saw that there was an old man carrying a basket on his back to pick mushrooms, a knight accompanying him showed a shocked expression.
"Old man, the refugees are coming! It's too dangerous to stay here! I'll take you away!" The knight rushed over, picked up the old man, and put him on his horse, regardless of whether the old man reacted or not.
…
"Have all the people outside the city withdrawn?" Renault paced anxiously on the city wall holding his sword.
"Sir, we are gathering the crowd! They must be coming soon!" A soldier came out.
"It's almost there? You're lucky if it's demolished by the refugees! Throw out everyone who can ride a horse in the city! Be sure to bring back all the people working and patrolling outside!" Renault slapped the city wall and roared.
"Yes..." The soldiers walked away quickly without hesitation.
"Your Highness!" Renault noticed Roland behind him and bowed quickly.
"Don't worry, what's the situation? Are the residents safe?" Roland asked immediately.
"There are still some residents working outside, and I have dispatched all mobile forces to assist them." Renault said bravely.
"Also! Why are all of them traveling so far?" Roland's mentality suddenly exploded. He had nothing to do to measure the road, right?
"By the way, the reconnaissance team discovered that there are at least 5,000 refugees! They lack food and clothing and are skinny, but there are some imperial soldiers among them. It is reported that their clothes and armor are shabby, and their weapons are broken... they must have been used for many years.
"Reno continued to share information.
"Are there really soldiers?" Roland was stunned for a moment. He could encounter such a big "Easter egg"... He should ask if there is a lottery ticket in China and place two bets quickly.
"Yes! There are a lot of rapid infantry! There should be other types of arms, but our people can only distinguish the rapid infantry because the distinctive infantry chain armor of the rapid soldiers is so easy to identify." Renault sighed.
He told Roland the truth in a breath.
"Gan..." Roland suddenly exhaled, meaning there might be a bigger surprise waiting for him later?
"Are there any knights..." Roland suddenly said this.
"..." Renault and Roland stared at each other for a long time and were silent.
In the end, Renault couldn't help it anymore, and he said to Roland without hesitation: "Your Highness, I think as a knight you should have some confidence in your profession... What kind of knight can be reduced to wandering and begging with refugees...
…”
Seeing that Renault's expression was getting weirder and weirder, Roland quickly explained, "Didn't I mean just in case... in case the family falls into trouble or something..."
Roland actually hopes that there will be some knights among them, which means that Roland can buy some knights for free. Rapid City, which does not have a serious knight training camp, cannot supplement Roland's knights. Except for Rohan and Gondor, there are knight training camps that can provide them with
In addition to replenishing his own knights with fresh blood, there should be no organized knights in the entire Middle-earth. Roland's current knight system is twisted and unreasonable. There is no supplementary ability at all. He can only wait for God's conscience to wake up from ordinary people.
, Or the system opened its eyes to sign in and out, As for the system mall... Looking at the round wealth values at the end, Roland decisively closed the page and left.
"Open the city gate! Open the city gate quickly! Let us in!" Flying dust dispersed on the road, and a hurried team rushed on the road towards the city gate.
"Open the city gate! It's our knight!" Renault, who saw the knights arriving before anyone else, hurriedly shouted down.
"It's like there is an earth dragon chasing them from behind." Roland curled his lips and said helplessly as he looked at the obviously frightened team.
…
"Boom!" The city gate closed with a bang, and the thick and heavy gate bolt was stuck tightly on it.
"There is no one left! We are the last... wave! The refugees are not far behind! God! They are so crazy!" The knight walked up panting and saluted everyone and reported.
"Okay, let's go down and rest!" Looking at the knight Roland, who was panting and sweating profusely, he waved his hand to indicate that he could rest.
…
"Buck up, they're here with bad intentions! Although they are our tribe, we can't take it lightly! If they attack the city... we will all be Lagrand's sinners!" Roland said solemnly, looking solemnly at everyone.
A person present.
"Don't worry, everything will be fine. They are our tribe after all, so they can't be too aggressive." Renault comforted them.
"I hope so..." Roland said sadly.
…
"Coming..." Suddenly someone shouted.
A black "tide" surged over the horizon quickly, and it was a huge roar of people! The "tide of people" that instantly covered the ground shocked everyone.
"Oh my God!" Roland lost his voice.
"Dragon God!" Radil couldn't help but clenched the staff tightly.
"Oh my god..." Kasluo, who instantly opened his dragon eyes, could see more clearly than anyone else. In front of him was a row of... rapid infantry?
"Squat down! Defend! They are armed!" Kaslo waved his hand and hid behind the parapet.
Although the original green color of the broken linen robes can no longer be seen clearly, the broken chain armor and the same worn leather armor still indicate their identity...the former Swift Infantry!
"Why didn't they raise our flag..." a soldier murmured.
"Maybe they are no longer the people we know..." Renault was stunned for a moment and said slowly.
