The ogre chief on the side wanted to take the opportunity to pursue him, but was forced back by Tal's sword.
Although there was some language barrier between the two, it did not prevent the ogre chief from understanding what Tal meant.
"Orc, Tarr?"
Marquis Wade has completely understood that the eastward march of the ogres may be instigated by the Orc Kingdom, and the Northland may be just the beginning.
"James"
"Father"
The eldest son and second son of Marquis Wade are both knight-level masters. The second son Takko is slightly weaker and has just stepped into the knight-level.
Both of them served in the Jingbei Army. During this expedition, the eldest son had been killed in the battle in the wilderness. Even the body has not been found yet.
The second son, James, retreated to Fort Hull with the army and has been fighting beside Marquis Wade.
"Go to Earl Hel and bring the news to Lord Thor."
"What about you, father?"
"I can't leave, please go quickly!"
"this…"
At this time, the situation has become very obvious. Judging from the orcs' previous skills, they will only die if they stay. James actually has the consciousness to die in battle.
"This is a military order, don't act like a bitch and follow it!"
Seeing that James was still hesitating, Marquis Wade directly issued a strong order.
"yes!"
James gritted his teeth and turned around to leave, feeling vaguely unwilling but a little happy in his heart.
Hull Fort had obviously prepared a secret passage during its construction. Marquis Wade asked him to find Earl of Hull and deliver the news. Apparently, he still had some selfish motives and wanted James to leave alive.
As for Marquis Wade himself, it is absolutely difficult to escape, regardless of whether the orc warriors on the opposite side will let him go.
Marquis Wade himself is a flag. With him here, the Jingbei Army can still support it. If he dares to turn around and leave, an avalanche will immediately occur.
Tal held the long knife horizontally and didn't care about James' departure. He just stared at Marquis Wade, as if waiting for him to make arrangements for his funeral.
Seeing James leaving, Marquis Wade finally turned his head,
The status of the first-class royal warrior of the Orc Kingdom is actually equivalent to that of the Dragon Knight of the Golden Dragon Kingdom.
At least he is a strong man at the peak of the Great Knight, but judging from Tal's skills just now, it is obvious that Tal's strength is more than the peak of the Great Knight.
Facing Tarr, Marquis Wade had no chance of winning.
"Golden Dragon Kingdom, Marquis of Northland, Wade Lanster."
"Qiang!"
"kill!"
Marquis Wade raised his sword high, squeezed his own fighting spirit to the limit, and took the initiative to attack Tal.
…
"Urgent report, urgent report!"
Outside Piaoxue City, a knight galloped towards the city gate along the official road.
Seeing the command flag on the knight's back, the guards at the city gate quickly lifted up the roadblocks on both sides to make way for him.
"Master Lint, urgent report from Fort Hel!"
Lint, who was processing the document in his hand, looked up at Xander who burst into the room with an anxious look on his face.
"Yesterday afternoon, Fort Hull fell, Marquis Wade died in battle, and the main force of the ogres marched eastward towards Piaoxue City. It was confirmed that there were orc warriors taking action on the battlefield."
Sander paused for a moment as he entered the door, and then finished telling the information like he was pouring beans through a bamboo tube, for fear that he would not be able to say it the next moment.
"I know, you go and lead the Sixth Army. For this kind of thing, just send a messenger next time."
"Master Linte, you?"
Lin Te's performance was so calm that Sander was a little scared. He dropped what he was doing and came here to report the news, just because he was a little worried about Lin Te's condition.
"I'm fine. Now is not the time to be weak. Father has tried his best."
Lin Te's tone remained calm, and Xander still didn't dare to leave easily.
"Master Linte..."
"Go back. The Sixth Army formed late and cannot be separated easily. Take good care of the Sixth Army. If Fort Hel is lost, Piaoxue City cannot be lost again."
"Yes, Master"
Sander looked back worriedly, and finally obeyed the order and left. Maybe Lint needed to be alone now.
Sander's loyalty to Lint is unquestionable. In his early years, Sander offended the powerful in the royal capital and was forced to flee to the North. With Lint's help, he settled his family in the Northland and resumed a normal life.
Even the cultivation of this great knight is also due to the large amount of resources provided by Lint.
It is not certain how much loyalty Xander has to the Lanster family, but he is truly loyal to Lint and is willing to repay it with his life.
"Cold-blooded?"
After Sander left, Lint also paused on the chair as if in a daze, and seemed to be talking to himself.
"The blood of our Lanster family is cold."
…
Ironwood Castle
Richard was sitting on a stone bench in the garden enjoying his afternoon tea.
Two exquisite desserts and a pot of black tea mixed with honey. Two maids stood aside, waiting for his instructions at any time.
Since the Hunter family became prosperous, the living standard in Ironwood Castle has also improved accordingly. Professional cooks and pastry chefs are all available, and it looks more and more like a nobleman.
No matter what happened in the North, Richard was in a pretty good mood recently.
A loser like Richard has never felt safe after coming to another world. In this world where extraordinary power exists, if he is not strong enough, he will suddenly die one day without knowing what happened.
Now after several years of hard work, especially after both himself and his father, Viscount Sauter, were promoted to Grand Knight,
After adding two more Diamond Man subordinates with the level of a great knight, I finally relieved the sense of crisis in my heart.
He and the Hunter family were finally no longer a small boat that could be overturned by wind and waves at any time, but at least it had become an iron boat with good ability to withstand wind and waves.
"Master Richard! Yusi is wearing red feathers!"
The soldiers who delivered the message ran and shouted all the way, which shows the urgency of the information.
In Yusidu's intelligence system, Hongyu's letter is the most urgent piece of information. It is delivered directly by Fengniao. The transfer point where the letter is received must not stop for a moment and must be delivered to Richard as soon as possible.
After hearing the words "Hongyu Piece", Richard immediately stopped enjoying himself. He could still tell the difference between what was minor and what was serious.
After borrowing the letter with Hong Yu from the courier, Richard carefully opened the sealed letter and took out the note inside.
"Fort Hull was captured, the Jingbei Army was nearly wiped out, and Marquis Wade was killed in the battle.
A strong orc appeared on the battlefield, suspected to be an earth knight."
"Damn, that's okay too!"
After reading the information, Richard felt quite complicated. He really never thought that Fort Hel would fall so quickly.
Hull Fort is no better than some small castles. It is a war fortress with complete defense facilities. There are also a large number of remnants of the Jingbei Army stationed there.
When Richard thought about it, even if Fort Hel fell, he could at least hold on for a while. As long as he was given enough time, he would not be afraid of the orc army, let alone the ogres.
The existence of Fort Hel is equivalent to a barrier for Richard and other nobles in the North.
Now that Helburg has fallen, the main force of the ogres has been freed up. It is no more than a small disturbance caused by some small tribes.
Without the obstruction of the Jingbei Army at Fort Hel, this is now a force powerful enough to sweep across the Northland.
Even if the strength of Richard's men has been greatly improved, it will definitely be difficult to fight against the main force of ogres, let alone the presence of orcs among them.
The sense of security that had just appeared was immediately suppressed by the sense of crisis.
"Call the officers at the commander-in-chief level, go to the meeting hall immediately, and then ask for the Viscount and Manager Egger."
