Chapter 743: The Great Expedition
Chapter 752 The Great Expedition
Five years is enough time for a lot of things to happen. Roland's Lagrand Kingdom is on the right track for the time being. The only thing that worries Roland is that the main mission has been changed due to the system restart and update. Otherwise, Roland would have been able to get the rewards now. , after all, the area from Rapid City to the southern part of Lulong Fortress is firmly under the control of the kingdom. Towns have sprung up one after another. These small towns distributed along the banks of the Rapid River can be said to be the current blood warehouse of the kingdom. They control Large tracts of villages and cultivated land provided blood to Rapid City and Lulong Fortress.
As for Roland's vassals... In fact, the ones with real development potential are Duke Apophis Breo and Lord Ismir. Five years of ups and downs have trained them to be able to stand alone.
As the thorn in the side of the Misty Mountains, His Excellency Apophis Breo also inherited the spirit of the King's Landing family to fight to the death, and gave full play to the true nature of the King's Landing master. He allowed himself to be harassed by monsters, orcs, goblins and other creatures. Instead of moving away, he worked tirelessly to strengthen the King's Landing Fortress. As a result, the refugee refresh mechanism really allowed the child to survive. With a population of nearly 40,000 and 3,000 elite soldiers, Apophis Breo directly divided the Misty Mountains into two parts. Secondly, the connection between the northern mountainous area and the southern mountainous area was cut off, and with Rivendell as his back, Apophis Breo was able to communicate with the orcs several times without fear. Ling Da was vomiting blood and would end up without high-end combat power for a while, which made Apophis Breo feel like there are no tigers in the mountain and the monkey is the king.
However, the benefits of Apophis Breo's control of the Old Pass line are obvious. The area controlled by Mordor is encompassed by the entire Kingdom of Lagrand - the Kingdom of Woodland - the Beorn Territory - the King's Landing Territory - Rivendell. Divided directly! The connection between Gambarda Fortress in the northern region and the Orc Kingdom in the Misty Mountains and Mordor has been cut off. Although there are many loopholes in this defense line, especially the territory of the Beorn people, it is impossible to block them with just a Rothgar Castle Fortress. Territory, fortunately with the help of the woodland elves, it was barely possible to see through. After the entire defense line was opened, the northern orc army could no longer move south unscrupulously. If they wanted to move south quietly, they could only choose to detour towards the northern wasteland. When Dongyi entered Mordor, it was not because Roland looked down upon the orcs, but because of the organizational power of the orcs, there were probably not many people left in Dongyi.
Of course, there is also a representative of "inaction". Lord Ismir, who shamelessly sat down in Windhelm City, can be regarded as a mature Middle-earth candy. He was praised by King Roland more than once for his true heritage, and with the Lordship's population of less than 5,000, he managed to cobble together an army of 300 professionals (Natural Guardians) and two hundred Goblin Knights! It can be called the militaristic representative of the lords in the new era of the kingdom! Probably because Windhelm City, which was still Windhelm Town three years ago, was plundered by wandering trolls. After hundreds of civilian soldiers were killed and injured, Lord Ismir had an epiphany in the ruins of Windhelm Town that was ravaged by war. From then on, his fate changed. The gears started turning!
Ismir led Ymir and the surviving citizens to rebuild Windhelm Town and expand it into Windhelm City. Then, as if he had opened up the second line of Rendu, he was full of skills in guerrilla warfare, robbery, and fighting to support war. He took the Goblin knight who came and went like the wind deep into the dark forest to harvest grass and valleys, which was regarded as a true inheritance of the nomads... Then the Windhelm City, which stood up again in the ruins, shouted "Kou can go and I can go." The slogan becomes the Little Khan of the Dark Forest.
Ismir, who turned into a "werewolf", forced all the alien tribes with hundreds of miles around to migrate. The most ridiculous thing is that this guy became the first in the entire alliance to score multiple goals after the Battle of Windhelm Town (the battle of Senar's defection). Due to the strong deterrence of the Kingdom of Lagland, the allies of Ergodo Fortress, who were worried about the deception of Khamul and Lidilias, endured their anger and just suppressed their anger and watched Ismir lead. He watched the Goblin Knights shit on his head without any movement... In fact, Ismir didn't even know that he had hit Dol Guldur. Ismir, who inherited Roland's unique lost buff, hit the stars. At the door of the elf's house, I found out that I had gone to Dol Guldur to kill a round trip...
In this way, Ismir, who became a scoundrel in the dark forest, finally became honest after being chased by a group of armored earth dragons. However, he had already recorded the territories of those earth dragons in his little notebook, and planned to go there. It's time to team up with the king to do him a favor!
It would be good if it develops like this, but it is a pity that Roland is not destined to be a peaceful person. With the primary city in his hand, Roland has no reason to give up the reason to control Lagrand Plain, pin the position of Lagrand City, and defend the rapid Henan The orcs on the other side can't get through at all. There are also patrols of the Iron Qiuling dwarves in the north. The entire vast Lagrand Plain will become the largest blood bag in the north. Roland dares to say that I can fight with you on the Lagrand Plain. Fight like this for a year!
So Roland chose to start a great expedition belonging to the kingdom! This is destined to be as grand a battle as the Battle of Azanubiza!
…
"The Pioneer Knights have set off! General Ormsk leads the knights to open the way first!" Renault tightened his armor and said.
"The kingdom is troubling you! Do your duty! Protect the kingdom for me!" Roland patted Renault's shoulder lightly.
"I will! As long as I am alive, Lulong Fortress will not fall! Just like the Rapid City, Your Excellency Yun Feng will protect the Rapid City!" Renault gave Roland a knight's salute and looked north, Yun Feng Sitting in Rapid City, he did not come to Lulong Fortress, but Adolf Heinrich followed.
"Isn't the kingdom's remaining strength too weak? Our high-level professionals have all followed me to the east..." Roland frowned. After all, the kingdom's top combat power had been taken away by him. Only Renault and Dos Anthony were left in Lulong Fortress. The Rapid City was better. In addition to Yun Feng and Grandpa Adile, there was also Ajax left. The other high-end combat power was basically taken away by Roland.
"Compared to the high-level combat power, I am more worried about the soldiers..." Renault complained to Roland with a dark face.
Take a look at Roland's expedition list! The kingdom has a total of 20,444 soldiers! Roland took away 150 knights! 1,000 Lagran City guards! 2,000 Badaniyya archers! 6,000 Rapid Infantry! A Royal Mage Forbidden Spell Team! A Second-level Priest Corps! 500 Royal Guards and 1,000 Goblin Knights! This kind of crazy withdrawal of troops is only done when the Ringwraiths and the Orcs have been pacified. Otherwise, when Roland returns, it is hard to say whether the Raglan dragon flag flying in the kingdom will be the orc clan totem.
