The main members of the Hunter family, including Viscount Sauter, and the officers above the commander-in-chief level of the Flying Bear Army were all sitting in the hall.
Viscount Sauter basically did not participate in the decision-making matters that originally involved territorial affairs after completely delegating power to Richard.
However, this incident was too serious. As the nominal lord of the Hunter Territory, Viscount Sauter was still dragged from the martial arts training ground to the meeting hall by Richard.
However, Viscount Sauter insisted not to take the seat that Richard had originally prepared for him.
Richard still sat on the main seat, while Viscount Sauter sat on the lower seat.
There were more than twenty people sitting in the entire meeting hall. The Hunter family, which originally lacked middle-level talents, finally became somewhat of a powerful aristocracy with the graduation of the new class of students in the school.
In the meeting hall, except for Viscount Sauter and Richard's second and third uncles, most of them were young faces.
During the time that Richard left, Viscount Sauter was not the only one who made progress.
With better fighting spirit training techniques and more sufficient resources, Richard's two uncles, who had spent ten years at the peak of quasi-knights, actually entered the knight level one after another.
As a result, all the God-given potions that Richard originally planned to use for them were saved.
Heaven and earth all work together to bring luck
Originally, Richard didn't really believe this, but now that time travel has happened, Richard doesn't dare to completely deny these mysterious and mysterious things.
Perhaps the Hunter family has really been destined by destiny and destiny.
However, the matter of both Richard and Viscount Sauter being promoted to the Grand Knight, in the eyes of others, is already in place and is a matter of prosperity.
With two great knights in one sect, and so many knight-level masters, the only one in the entire North that can be stronger than the Hunter family is the Lanster family.
Now that the Lanster family seems to be in danger, is there any surprise who will be the next overlord of the North? The retainers under the Hunter family are much more confident than Richard.
Especially Viscount Nader and Baron Band, after learning that Viscount Sauter and Richard had become Grand Knights at the same time, they both sent a generous gift to congratulate them.
As a result, the surrounding nobles who were attached to the Hunter family all made up gifts one after another, fearing that they would be left behind.
"I'm sorry, Lord Viscount, Master Richard, I was just checking the material reserves in the warehouse and I was a step late."
"It's okay, Uncle Egg, thank you for your hard work, please take a seat."
Seeing that everyone had almost gathered, Richard announced to everyone the news he had just learned.
"I just received the information that Fort Hull was attacked by ogres, Marquis Wade was killed in battle, and the entire defense force of Fort Hull was annihilated."
"ah?"
"What?"
Yusidu was originally operated according to Richard's plan when it was established. It was definitely a professional intelligence agency ahead of its time.
After the Hunter Territory started to expand, more resources were allocated. This time, their speed of obtaining intelligence was almost second only to the Lanster family, who had been cultivating the Northland for several generations.
Not long after Lint got the news, Richard got the information. Most of the nobles in the North had not heard the news yet.
And Richard's announcement of this news was undoubtedly a huge stone thrown into the calm water.
In the hearts of most northern people, the Jingbei Army and the Lanster family are like mountains, weighing on the heads of all the northern nobles.
The power of the Jingbei Army and the Lanster family has long been deeply rooted in the hearts of the people in the North. Most of the people here are natives of the North.
Those young officers are all fine. They have been educated to only know the Hunter family, and they have an indifferent attitude towards everyone except them.
On the contrary, it was Viscount Sauter and others who had the biggest reaction.
However, no one was stupid enough to ask whether the information was true or false. The information directly announced by Richard was false, and the Hunter family had to treat it as true.
"Be quiet."
As soon as Richard spoke, everyone who was still talking about it stopped.
"In order to cope with the eastward march of the ogres, I decided to increase the original army expansion again and directly expand the Flying Bear Army to three flag regiments and fifteen thousand people."
In other words, the Hunter family now controls five or six territories, and the population base has greatly increased.
If we were to recruit troops from the territory originally occupied by Hunter, even if we were to recruit troops with a forceful attitude of destroying production, four or five thousand troops would be the limit.
After hearing the army expansion plan announced by Richard, the officers below all looked happy. With the expansion of the army, they will have more opportunities for promotion.
Only Ige frowned again. Few people in charge of money would be in a good mood when they heard about the expansion of the army and the strengthening of armaments.
The larger the gold-swallowing behemoth like the army is, the higher the operating costs will be. Sometimes when Iger has a headache,
As for the soap that was originally planned to be launched in the Northland, with the fall of Fort Hel and the eastward advance of the ogres, the progress will definitely be delayed again.
After hearing about Richard's sudden military expansion plan, Egger's mind started to work crazy, thinking about where he could get money to fill these holes.
"No matter whether there are difficulties or not, the army must be expanded. This month we must ensure that the expansion plan is completed and training begins in the camp."
Yes, Richard's words have set the tone, and Iger can no longer raise any objections.
Fortunately, the Hunter Territory has accumulated food for so long, and there is no shortage of food for the time being. As long as there is no shortage of food, with the prestige of the Hunter family, it will not be a big problem if the military pay cannot be paid in arrears. Let's put up the air first.
.
"The First Flag Regiment gives priority to replenishing its troops and is ready to be dispatched at any time. New recruits will start training immediately after entering the camp."
The original more than 4,000 Flying Bear Army lost hundreds in the previous war. Now Richard has directly reorganized it into the First Flag Regiment.
The farmers and soldiers who have been trained by the Hunter family for a long time will be given priority to join the First Flag Regiment to maintain their combat effectiveness. This is an army that can be drawn out to fight at any time.
"yes!"
It was said to be a meeting, but it was actually Richard announcing information and conveying his orders. Everyone present was used to this style. After Richard made the arrangements, everyone except Viscount Sauter answered "yes" neatly.
"My father and my two uncles are still in charge of Ironwood City, and we will pay close attention to the training of the new recruits."
Ironwood City is the foundation of the Hunter family, and the entire family lives in Ironwood Castle. Richard never dared to drain Ironwood City's military strength.
This time, even orc warriors who were suspected to be Earth Knights appeared. Without enough troops and a few strong men to guard them, Richard was not at ease at all.
"Everyone, go down and prepare. The army must stay in camp recently and be ready to dispatch at any time!"
The Flying Bear Army doesn't have a few days to rest and recuperate. The war is about to come again.
Although the ogres will not attack the Hunter family, Piaoxue City is their next target.
But Richard still understands that if Piaoxue City falls, the people who are qualified to be the main target of the ogres' elimination will be the Hunter family. Who made them so popular before?
Piaoxue City must be aided, whether it is for the sake of human justice, military glory or the division of profits after the war, this time Richard must take the initiative...
