Chapter 144 Viscount Marvin’s plan

Luogna didn't understand why his father suddenly said that he should follow Luo Ning. ♦♜

"Father, do you think highly of Luo Ning? But there is nothing special about him. Defeating Leisen is just something his followers can do."

He expressed his opinion: "Although it is true that Luo Ning can let such a strong follower follow him, we don't know what happened between their master and servant. Maybe Luo Ning was just when Redal was desperate. How about giving away some money?"

It is common for a powerful knight to follow an ordinary nobleman because he wants to repay a favor.

For Luogna, the development of Hillwood Town did surprise him. He did not expect Luo Ning to achieve this level.

But if he is asked to follow the other party, his willingness is not great.

Marvin tapped his fingers on the table, thinking secretly.

He has two sons, the eldest son Mas and the second son Rognar.

According to the rules, the Iron Heel family will inherit the title from Maas.

Rognar could either stay at home and help his brother manage the property, or join the knights or become a servant of a big noble.

In the past two years, Marvin has scouted several nobles, but he has not officially stated them.

Now Luo Ning has also entered his sight.

It's not that he thinks highly of Luo Ning's personal strength or charm. In fact, what he values ​​more is Luo Ning's identity - the eldest grandson of Wushan leader.

Ever since Lulans handed over the affairs of the Wushan Territory to Wiggins, the Iron Hoof family began to be targeted by the Hyde family. Their caravans there were repeatedly beaten and harassed for no reason.

At first, Marvin wanted to use Wiggins to actively show goodwill to the other party and maintain the business there. However, after repeatedly running into obstacles, he knew that the other party had no intention of improving the relationship with him.

Now that Brayton has obtained the right of inheritance, one day in the future Rulans will die and Wiggins will succeed the Marquis. To be honest, he can't count on this person.

So by then the situation of the Iron Heel family will be even more difficult.

The other party can even create some friction, push the Iron Hoof family to the forefront, and then carry out encirclement and suppression.

Marvin needed to prepare in advance.

He really hopes that Luo Ning will be stronger, so that if the Wushan Territory is in chaos in the future, as a direct bloodline of the Wushan family, Luo Ning can stand up and compete with the opponent.

At that time, he, Muma City, can also use the name of "the despicable Hyde family to betray the lord and use conspiracy to force the legitimate heir to give way to the throne" to cheer for Luo Ning.

In this way, he would have a reason to unite other nobles to fight against the Hyde family, thereby creating a living space for the Iron Heel family.

Therefore, Marvin was very happy when he heard that Leisen had suffered losses from Ronin in the savage tribe.

But the current situation is just as Luogna said. Apart from his stronger subordinates and different personality from the legend, there is nothing special about Luo Ning.

"You are right, I will consider it again."

After a while, Marvin said: "But you have to understand that the Iron Hoof family will fall on your brother's shoulders. If you are unwilling to follow those nobles, then I will at most ask your brother to give you a small territory. There is not much Much wealth is left to you.”

"That's enough father."

Rogner said: "I like to walk around and see, and so does Kurami. When the time comes, I will help my brother manage the family business."

Marvin nodded.

Rogner was a bit stronger. He was already a senior knight at only twenty-one years old. He would be very suitable to take charge of the development and maintenance of the family's trade routes in the future.

"Okay, come with me to meet Luo Ning."

Marvin stood up and said, "It would be impolite to make guests wait too long."

Soon, Viscount Marvin strode into the living room and immediately saw Luo Ning. He laughed and opened his arms for a warm hug.

"Haha, long time no see, Luo Ning, you have grown taller than last time!"

Strong and powerful, this was Luo Ning's intuitive feeling when he was hugged. It was hard to believe that the short black-haired man in front of him was a silver-level knight.

"Long time no see, Mr. Viscount, you are still as enthusiastic and powerful as usual!" Luo Ning behaved very politely.

"Quick, sit down, sit down."

Marvin gestured enthusiastically, "Calling me 'Mr. Viscount' is too foreign. I am Grandpa You's apprentice, and I have a good relationship with your father. Just call me uncle."

He said: "It's the Marquis's birthday soon. You should be there this time, right?"

Marvin had invited Luo Ning to go with him when Wiggins broke his leg last time, but the latter delayed it for a month before going to Wushanbao alone. This was something he did not expect.

It would be outrageous to postpone this birthday for another month.

"Yes, uncle."

Luo Ning was not polite, "I passed by Muma City on my way out this time, so I thought I would come over to buy some things and also pay you a visit."

"Haha, just come here directly next time. No need to hand over any greetings. Iron Shoe Castle welcomes you at any time."

Marvin said: "It just so happens that my team is about to leave soon. This time we can go together to Wushanpu."

"It's my pleasure!"

Luo Ning did not refuse this time. Anyway, there was no urgent matter if he went to Wushanbao too early. There was nothing wrong with going with the Iron Hoof family's convoy.

The conversation between the two was very harmonious.

Next, Marvin asked about Redal's defeat of Rayson.

Luo Ning was not surprised when the other party learned about what happened in Huitu Village.

After all, Leisen was carrying a whole team of knights at that time, more than a hundred people. After the defeat and returning to Thain territory, it would be difficult not to leak any news.

He did not hide anything and told the story of the battle.

"Uncle Marvin, Baron Leisen's knight team shocked me a lot, so I also want to form a knight team, but there are not enough war horses and riding horses in the territory."

Ronin stated one of the purposes of the visit, "So I want to buy some horses from you."

Buying horses is very common. Many nobles and knights come to Horse Wrangling City to buy horses. Marvin has long been used to it.

But what surprised him was that Luo Ning actually wanted to form a knight team.

"A qualified baron does need to arm a knight squad, but the core of the knight squad is professional knights. Are there so many professional knights in Hillwood Town?"

Luo Gena also showed a surprised look. There were twelve knight followers around Luo Ning?

Luo Ning smiled and nodded.

"To be honest, I already have twelve professional knights. As for the cavalry, infantry, and archers, they are all selected from the people of the territory and are still being trained."

In fact, he already has sixteen extraordinary beings under his command.

"Where did you get so many knights?" Rogner couldn't help but ask.

Luo Ning didn't hide anything either: "Four of them were guards brought over by Wushan Fort. They were lucky enough to awaken the fighting spirit seeds in the past two months. The rest were conquered by the savage tribe."

"They are all newly awakened knights. They are a little stronger than ordinary people, but they are much weaker than the standard knight squads of other nobles."

Rogerna was stunned.

Generally speaking, a junior knight can defeat three elite soldiers at the same time, and a well-trained knight in the knight squad can deal with two or three ordinary junior knights at the same time.

Using knights who have just awakened the fighting spirit seeds to form a knight squad will only look scary, but the actual combat effectiveness is a question mark.

Viscount Marvin smiled and expressed his affirmation of Luo Ning's future fighting ability of this team.

"With Redal and the McCann knight behind you leading the team, once your knight team is formed, it won't be much weaker."

As he spoke, he looked at Luogna and ordered: "You will take Luo Ning to the racecourse tomorrow to choose a war horse. Because of the relationship between Tiedi and Wushan, give Luo Ning more discounts. This can be considered as an elder who I am giving to Luo Ning at the end of the year. Some greeting gifts from Ning.”

"Uncle Marvin, you are so generous!" Luo Ning quickly stood up and bowed in thanks.

The Iron Hoof family was really polite to him.
