Chapter 73 The border of Cardero Province—Lumen Mountain

"It's just an earl family, what do you have to be afraid of?" Seeing that he was instantly isolated, the low-level silver knight couldn't help but yelled.

"Is that because you, an idiot, don't know the whole story and think that the Akers family is just a family of counts?"

"As a baron family from a nouveau riche, I advise you to report to your lord and get to know the outside world well. Don't just focus on the small place of Cadero Province."

"Shut up now, or I'll make you idiot disappear on the way, so as not to bring disaster to us."

All the surrounding silver knights could not bear to rebuke, so this low-level silver knight realized that the situation was not good, and automatically retreated to the end, not daring to say anything anymore, and determined not to express his opinions until he ended his duties in the defense force, to avoid Bringing trouble to one's own lord.

The high-ranking silver knight glanced coldly, and then returned to a warm expression: "This area is located at the northern end of the border of Cardro Province, close to the border of the Railway Dwarf Mountain Kingdom. There are many centaurs here outside the cleaning area. Activities, everyone gathered together to sum up and sum up.”

"Yes, think about it from another perspective. Our team has the most high-end combat power and has an incomparable advantage compared to other troops."

When everyone heard it, they thought in a flash that it was indeed the case, and started a heated discussion, except for a certain idiot.

……

Early the next morning, according to the original plan, the defense force was divided into five troops and left the original location of the Knights.

During the march, Flora called Weilin aside and asked: "Is there anything that needs to be solved in your territory? We will solve it together during this operation."

After hearing this, Weilin thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said, "I don't know. My territory has just been developed for a year, and the surrounding investigation area is not very large."

"I see."

Flora immediately called the messenger over and went to call the deputy commander.

After a while, a knight rode a war horse and came to the hillside from the front of the team. He dismounted and saluted Flora: "Captain, you are looking for me."

"Miller, how is the integration of the troops going?"

"It went very well." Miller heard this and reported to Flora, "The soldiers at the bottom showed no resistance. Judging from the information reported by the commanders of each unit, almost all the officers at the bottom actively cooperated with us in commanding the troops. Except for a very few, I threw them all into the "Sharp Knife Camp" and prepared to consume them in the first wave."

"Well, let them have some snacks and gradually gain control of the troops during the march, so that they won't start to hang chains when the time comes." Flora nodded with satisfaction.

"Second, within the original area, let the scouts expand the scope of their reconnaissance and mark all tribes with more than 300 monsters."

"Yes, Captain."

Miller then rode off the hill.

"Commander, I'm going down too." After seeing Miller leave, Verin said to Flora.

"Well, you go down and take this opportunity to exercise more."

"Yes."

Afterwards, Verin mounted his red phosphorus horse and headed to the rear of the marching team.

As a Silver Knight, he also gained command of a thousand-man army.

In order to better control the troops, Weilin used the 200 infantrymen he brought as the backbone and mixed them with the 800 people assigned to him.

At the same time, twenty knight attendants were also organized into a team of supervisors and messengers, which would help him convey orders and command the troops.

Looking at the orderly marching team, Weilin nodded with satisfaction.

"My lord, do you need to send someone to contact Lord Baird and the others in advance?" Kyle rode up to Verin and asked.

After some thought, Verin ordered: "Send two people back to inform Baird and Orlando, assemble the troops and be on standby at any time, if they may be needed."

"Yes."

After Kyle's suggestion, Verin had a bold idea in his mind.

If possible, after the defense forces withdraw, they can occupy the temporary earthen fort they built as an advance base to open up the gray wilderness.

After five days of normal march, the team of 8,000 people successfully arrived at the pre-planned location - Lumen Mountain, a location that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Weilin followed Flora, stepped on the rocks on the deer gate, and looked at the surrounding walls piled up with soil, but they were only ruins.

"Three hundred years ago, this was a jackal city." Miller, standing behind Flora, suddenly said.

"Here?" Weilin asked with some uncertainty.

"Yes, it's here." Miller nodded and continued, "Three hundred years ago, my ancestor was an adventurer and once visited this place. In the diary left by his old man, it was clearly recorded that deer Menshan City, a small town of jackals, had more than six thousand jackals living there at that time.”

"I see, it's just that it's a bit dilapidated here."

As for why it turned into the current scene, Weilin probably figured it out.

"Miller, let's clear this place out first, set up camp, and start assigning clear tasks tomorrow."

"Yes, Captain."

Later, a team of 1,000 people arrived and began to clear away the gravel and soil and level the land.

There are a thousand people, all professionals, each one is worth three or four strong laborers, and they work very efficiently.

Towards the afternoon, a large area of ​​land was leveled, and then a large number of marching tents were set up.

At night, in the command camp, the commander, deputy commander, eight commanders and other officers came here for a meeting.

"After discussions between Miller and I, the following order was formulated."

Including Verin, eight thousand captains stood up, waiting for orders from Commander Flora.

"The 1st, 3rd, 5th and 7th thousand men served as the 1st Battalion, and the 2nd, 4th, 6th and 8th Thousand men served as the 2nd Battalion."

"With a cycle of half a month, the two battalions take turns responsible for clearing and fortification tasks."

"I announce that the first battalion will be responsible for the clearing task, and the second battalion will be responsible for the city building task."

"Tomorrow, I will assign combat missions to each commander, and the plan will be officially implemented the day after tomorrow."

"Yes."

The eight thousand captains replied loudly, and then returned to the queue.

Flora looked around and continued to order: "The logistics force will complete the logistics supply task and ensure the safety of food and military equipment."

"Yes, my lord."

The Minister of Logistics, a Silver Knight stood up and answered loudly.

"The meeting is over now, let me go back and have a good rest."

"Yes."

Everyone left the camp one by one and headed to the area where their troops were located.

As the captain of the 7000-man team, Verin came to the upper left area of ​​the camp.

"Lord, do you need me to summon all the centurions?" Kyle stepped forward and saluted when he saw Verin returning.

"No, let them have a good rest and we will assign tasks tomorrow."

"Yes."

Kyle was ordered to leave, and Verin went directly into his tent and fell down on the carpet to rest.
