After getting over the excitement of being promoted to the Great Knight, Richard returned to the table in the meeting hall and checked out the new tasks.
It's easy to kill both the Ogre Warrior and the Ogre Warrior.
There are so many scattered ogre tribes pouring into the North. As long as you lead your troops and eliminate them slowly, you can always complete the mission.
But killing an ogre chief is a bit tricky. Although Richard has just been promoted to a grand knight and has a magic weapon like the Vulcan Sword, he may be able to give the ogre chief a 50-50 fight.
But the terrible thing is that according to Yusudu's intelligence, all the large tribes with ogre chiefs are now under the command of the two-headed ogre Grugesh, and they are all concentrated under the castle of Helburg.
With Richard's current strength, he doesn't even dare to touch him.
Or he simply ignored the two-headed ogre priest Grugesh and was still living his life in the depths of the wilderness. Richard did not dare to lead his army to the depths of the wilderness to find trouble for others.
At present, this mission seems to be a dead end, and we can only put it aside and wait for opportunities for the time being.
After taking on the new mission, Richard was not in a hurry to leave. With Ron, Quill and others around, Richard was not worried about what problems would happen to the Flying Bear Army in a short period of time.
The next day will be a new week. When the new week comes, we will take away the newly trained warriors and the red flame horses. Today we will rest directly at the Stone Castle for the night.

Outside Helburg, Ogre Camp
A few days ago, the ogres built siege equipment such as rams and smashed the Jingbei Army's outer camp. Helburg has completely become an empty city.
The ogre camp also moved forward and settled closer to Fort Hel, tightly surrounding Fort Hel.
At this time, in Grugesh's camp, there was a man completely shrouded in black robes, sitting opposite Grugesh.
This is a strange thing. As the legendary envoy of the ogres, Grugesh has a supreme status among the ogres. Even the chiefs of large tribes can only sit under Grugesh.
,
However, Grugesh obviously didn't care about this, and instead continued to talk with the other party.
“Didn’t you say that the food in Helburg is only enough for them to feed them for half a month at most?
This siege has been going on for almost a month, why don’t they have any intention of being short of food?”
Grugesh opened his mouth twice at the same time, and his tone was slightly anxious.
"I don't know, maybe something unexpected happened in the middle."
The man in black robe's voice was a little hoarse, but he could tell that his tone was very helpless.
In fact, normally speaking, Helburg really shouldn't have that much food in stock.
Although Helburg is a large castle, it originally only housed a few thousand people. Even if it stores enough food for half a year, it is only prepared for a few thousand people.
Now that the Jingbei Army is stationed, tens of thousands of people are suddenly crammed in. Tens of thousands of mouths should have eaten up all the food, but looking at the Jingbei Army's unhurried appearance, it doesn't look like it is in a state of running out of food.
This was due to Lint's reminder that Marquis Wade prepared a retreat in advance before the war that should be won, and hoarded a large amount of food and supplies in Fort Hel. Now, although the Jingbei Army and tens of thousands of people from the Hel family have been
They were besieged in Helberg, but the food was enough for them to last for more than half a year, and there was still time to spend here.
"This is your mistake and you must provide compensation."
"Lord Grugesh, you know, it is difficult for us to directly provide you with any supplies. We are just allies who provide you with friendly help."
"snort!"
Grugesh snorted coldly to express his dissatisfaction. He just wanted some benefits casually. In fact, he also knew that it would be difficult for the other party to provide him with anything more.
"Now there are two more news, one good news and one bad news. You are..."
"If you have something to say, say it quickly. Why bother with it?"
Grugesh was a little impatient and interrupted the other party.
"The good news is that under our guidance, your army will soon have better siege tools such as well fences."
In addition to capturing human craftsmen, the progress of the ogres in manufacturing also seems to have a certain relationship with the men in black robes.
"What about the bad news?"
"According to our intelligence, Sol, the dragon knight of the Golden Dragon Kingdom, has arrived in the river valley. He is currently reorganizing his troops and is expected to head north soon."
"boom!"
"Didn't you say that the Dragon Knight would never come to the North?"
Grugesh's words were completely shouted, with two mouths speaking at the same time, and the volume was extremely loud.
Although there is little information in the wilderness, as the decision-maker of a population, it is certainly impossible for Grugesh to be completely ignorant of the outside world.
Grugesh still has a certain amount of awe for the Dragon Knights, the top military force of mankind.
If the man in black hadn't assured him this time that the dragon knights from the royal capital would never come to the North, he might not have dared to launch this attack.
The ogre warriors guarding outside the tent were alerted and poked their heads in to observe the situation.
"It's okay, go out..."
"Don't be excited, don't be excited. Although the dragon knight Thor came, the golden dragon did not follow."
After the ogre warriors left, the man in black robe opened his mouth to explain.
After hearing the explanation, Grugesh's expression softened a little. Although the name of the dragon knight in the country is famous, the greater deterrence mainly lies in the dragon.
On the contrary, the Dragon Knight itself is easily ignored. Obviously, Grugesh doesn't care about Thor's strength and is completely unaware of Thor's power.
The man in black robe may be well aware of Thor's power, but at this time he will not take the initiative to mention it in order to appease Grugesh.
"However, once he has reorganized his army in the river valley and goes north, and then joins the human legions stationed in Piaoxue City, it will probably be a trouble for us.
I suggest launching a general attack on Fort Hel as soon as possible to eliminate the remnants of the Jingbei Army inside first, so that we can calmly deal with the human reinforcements."
After listening to what the man in black robe said, Grugesh fell into thinking, and after a while he spoke:
"Let's siege for a while longer and build more siege equipment before attacking. Maybe Helburg is about to run out of food."
"Okay, then just prepare for a while."
The man in black robe did not try to persuade him any more, fearing that he would be dissatisfied with Grugesh if he spoke any more.
"Then I'll go back first."
The man in black robe has his own tent in the ogre camp and enjoys the treatment of VIPs, even second only to Grugesh.
Seeing the man in black robe slowly leaving the camp, Grugesh's originally calm expression became increasingly gloomy.
The two heads slowly looked at each other.
"Maybe we shouldn't trust him."
"We are impatient."
"Humans are not that easy to deal with."
"We just want to take back the land that belongs to us."
