Being a lord in another world begins with farming

Chapter 29
In fact, the trouble came very quickly. After the harvest in the territory, the news spread quickly. After all, the neighbors around are not dead. It is common to send spies to the neighbor's house to see what they eat and use, and whether they have made a fortune. , not to mention that the territory of the Hydera family has changed so much over the past year, they will not watch it with their own eyes. After all, although they only made trouble back then, they were inseparable from the death of Hydera I. How could they see it? With the Hydera family rising again.

They don't think that the Hydera family will be merciful, so they can only act first.

Those who dare to go deep into the north to become lords are all bold and reckless. It is impossible to expect them to live in peace. At the beginning, Hydera I used force to bully them, so when they knew that the Hydera family had a good harvest and showed signs of resurgence In just half a month, the coalition consisting of three barons and one viscount took shape.

Owen has known this for a long time. After all, there are no telephones in this day and age, and the means of communication are very primitive. If you are in the empire, you need to consider magic means. The couriers of the team were like hardworking bees traveling in the wilderness of the Northland, even if the other party had already paid attention to concealment, but the scout cavalry was not a vegetarian, and almost discovered something wrong on the first day.

Even though the combat effectiveness of the scout cavalry is hard to see, they are really good at tracking and tracking. They found something wrong from the traces left on the ground, so they immediately reported it to the lord.

After learning about this, Owen didn't panic, because he had expected it long ago. After all, he didn't expect the changes in the territory to be concealed forever. Therefore, in addition to ordering the scout cavalry to strengthen surveillance, he also began to strengthen his hands.

As for the situation of the four neighbors around him, Owen has a more or less grasp of them. They are the Viscount Flying Dragon, the Baron White Wolf, the Baron Buffalo, and the Baron Swan.

This is a characteristic of the northern border nobles. Most of them use the names of monsters and animals. For example, the Hydra family was originally called Hydra. Later, I heard that Hydra was also called Hydra. I think the latter sounds better and is more elegant. Hydra was used.

Among the four nobles, the Viscount Feilong is the strongest. Just like Hydera I had an oblique relationship with a certain noble in the empire, the Viscount Feilong also came from a certain noble family in the empire, so compared to other nobles on the northern border, there are more A little background, and this little background is the gap, the class, and the watershed that distinguishes a duke from a baron.

It's a pity that the Viscount Feilong met Hydera I and was beaten relentlessly from the beginning to the end. Finally, after being robbed of a certain treasure, Feilong I, who was in his prime, vomited blood and died directly, so the Hydera family and the Feilong family are feud.

So this time it was the other party who initiated it. Dragon II has this ability and qualification.

As for the three barons, they did not make up the numbers. Among them, the Baron White Wolf was a mercenary. Although there were not many soldiers under him, he had the strongest combat effectiveness. How much is left is unknown.

The Buffalo Baron has some northern barbarian blood, so he has several northern barbarians under his command, and has connections with the northern barbarian tribe.

Baron Swan was the best born, a certain minor nobleman in the empire, but unfortunately his family was down and down, he offended the nobleman and was forced to go far to the north, so he came the latest, but his development was not bad, and he was also the one Owen knew the least about.

Together, the four can gather one or two hundred soldiers, as well as a considerable number of militiamen.

Owen exchanged arms according to the system, and classified soldiers worth one progress value as ordinary soldiers, those with three progress values ​​as veterans, those with five progress values ​​as elites, and those with ten progress values ​​as elites, that is, knights.

Based on the family background of the four lords, most of the soldiers should be ordinary soldiers, with only a few veterans. If there are elites, there should not be many except for a few northern barbarians under the Baron Buffalo. As for the knights, Owen does not know how many there are.

At first, Owen thought that the knights were only strong and skilled in martial arts, and also knew some ability to lead troops and manage them, but in fact it was not that simple.

Real knights are all existences who master fighting spirit and break the limits of human beings, and each of them is an enemy of a hundred people.

Ciel can be used as an example. Although she did not learn battle qi, she is very talented. With the blessing of the Templar template and the iron shirt, she is also beyond the limit of the human body, but she is taking the path of the physical body, not fighting qi.

From this it can be seen that real knights have strong fighting spirit, and among the four nobles, Viscount Feilong and Baron Swan have fighting spirit inheritance, and Baron White Wolf is a veteran mercenary. Owen is not sure whether there is any fighting spirit inheritance. As for Baron Buffalo, He probably doesn't know how to fight, but he has the blood of the northern barbarians, and his combat effectiveness should not be underestimated.

The Hydera family originally had grudge inheritance, or how Hydera I and his sons fought against the four families, but now it is gone.

Not only is the battle qi inheritance gone, but the few things that can be called treasures of the Hydera family are also gone, including the flying dragon egg snatched from Feilong I.

As for why it didn't, Owen knew very well that he was not swept away by the cruel old lady in his predecessor.

After learning of the neighbor's actions, Owen dispatched scouts from the Wooden Village of the Magic Horn Forest to step up surveillance.

What's interesting is that the place where the opponent decided to join forces was beside the Demon Horn Forest.

But it's not surprising, because the Northland is empty, and only the Magic Horn Forest can act as a cover, so unless they plan to alert Owen to join the army directly under the castle, or catch up with the road for a day before starting the fight, otherwise this is their only place. choose.

"You are really looking for your own death." Owen said quietly. Originally, he was planning to fight a defensive battle, and he was prepared to lose everything outside the castle. Who would have thought that the other party would really pick a place and bury them in a hurry? , Wouldn't it be a disappointment to their good intentions.

Such a long time is enough for General Goblin to gain a firm foothold in the Magic Horn Forest, and he has subdued many Magic Horn Goblins.

Horned Goblins are also Goblins. Facing Goblin Warriors and Goblin Generals with a higher level of life, they don't have much intention to fight desperately, because this is an internal struggle, and it is also the Goblin's responsibility to obey the strong. Natural nature, so the problem facing General Goblin is not how many goblins he has, but how many goblins he can support.

Even if goblins are extremely hungry, they can eat humus, but they are not bugs after all. If they want to last long, they must have a decent food source.

The problem is that goblins don't have the talent for farming at all, not even for herding. Apart from gathering and hunting, the only thing they can do is plunder.

But the situation in the Devil’s Horn Forest is special. There is no looting target at all, but there are outside the forest. The problem is that the closest one is the territory of the Lord Demon King. As for other human territories, they are far away, so General Goblin has a headache.

General Goblin is now in command of all the monsters under the Lord Demon King, but it has not forgotten that all these are bestowed by the Lord Demon King, which means that it can be replaced at any time, because it is eager to prove its ability to the Lord Demon King.

Fortunately, the opportunity came. After receiving the order from Lord Demon King, General Goblin excitedly blew the horn, countless pairs of cunning eyes opened in the dark magic horned forest, and the goblins began to gather.
