The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth.

Chapter 800 The McDougal Family!

"Let me stay. We need someone of sufficient importance to stay here to guard it. Besides, no king has ever abandoned his capital..." Roland said with a wry smile. It was impossible for him to run back after having fought back. Otherwise, his trip would have been in vain.

"This..." Duke Joltea wanted to dissuade the king, but he didn't know where to start. After all, he couldn't persuade the king to leave his capital.

"Sir Adolf Heinrich!" Roland raised his head and called out.

"Gather the troops! Prepare to split up!" Roland thought for a moment and said firmly.

"As you command!" Adolf Heinrich nodded, not going against Roland's will. After all, there was nothing wrong with Roland's decision. He was considered a normal king among the group of "Northern Generals" of Lagrande. What was a king guarding his lonesome? Have you ever seen a king alone go deep into the northern wilderness to build a city? No? No problem! There was also the Human Emperor who led an expedition to the Helkan Inland Sea. If that wasn't exciting enough, then there was also the "God" who led a group of knights to the gate of Angband.

……

"We now have 250 knights! They are the Holy Knights (150 people) and the Romanian Royal Knights (100 people)" Omsk and Fenglin Binglan looked at each other and said.

"1000 Lagran City guards are ready to fight at any time!" Weilin Angus said respectfully. At this moment, he was already a fourth-level warrior commander.

"2000 Badaniyan archers are on standby!" Vanerwe nodded to Roland, because Vanerwe was the only high-level professional archer under Roland. Although Vanerwe preferred to use a long sword, it was not a waste of time for a ranger to bring archers with him.

  "The First (Second) Rapid Flow Infantry Legion is ready to die for you at any time!" Luke Leopold and Merck Leopold, the only two civilian generals under Roland, were very excited at the moment. After all, they had successfully recaptured and defended Lagrande City with Roland! In the past, they would have to open a separate family tree!

"800 Royal Guards have been assembled!" Kaslo stroked Roland's chest with a serious face and said. After Omsk went to lead the Knights, Roland's personal guards would naturally be in charge of Kaslo.

"The Goblin Knights are ready!" Alistar said sincerely as he looked at Roland kneeling on one knee.

"The Royal Mage Forbidden Spell Squad has assembled!" Adolf Heinrich nodded to Roland.

"The priests have been integrated!" Charlie Pross finally got serious.

“那么我们手下就有250名骑士！1000名拉格朗城卫兵！2000名巴丹尼亚射手！6000名疾流步兵！一个皇家法师禁咒队！一个二阶牧师团！800名皇家禁军和1000名哥布林骑士！一万多号人了！”罗兰点点头。

"We'll talk about the rewards for this battle later! Let's arrange the withdrawal first!" Roland saw that Duke Joltea was wavering and raised his hand to interrupt him.

"Give each soldier 50 gold coins first! We will decide on other rewards later!" Roland nodded to Adolf Heinrich. After all, it was a big deal about the promotion of titles, and it would be hard to say for a while, but Roland had already made up his mind. Every general who fought in this battle would have to be promoted to a higher title. Except for the Duke of Joltea, who was at the top, everyone else would have to start as a court viscount! Senior officials like Adolf Heinrich would have to be court earls at least. If the kingdom was not just a start-up, Roland would have to give away a group of powerful nobles this time! But it didn't mean that he would not give them away. When the kingdom was stable in the future, Roland would have to compensate these people with their fiefs.

"The soldiers who stay here will be rewarded by Duke Joltea, and the others will be rewarded by Yun Feng after they return to Rapid City!" Roland knocked on the table.

"Okay!" Duke Joelstia nodded. He planned to use his family's money to pay for it. After all, the Duke of Zhongting was one with the royal family. How could the emperor have money? All the previous generations had been fleecing the empire with both fists... With the idea that it would be better to contribute voluntarily than to be asked for money by Roland, Joelstia paid directly out of his own pocket.

  In fact, Roland really didn't intend to let Jolstea pay out of his own pocket. In addition, he didn't understand the deep relationship between the royal family and the two fists. If he knew that the emperor's private treasury was directly the inner treasury of the Hand of the Flow family, he would never let Jolstea pay... What? What is the Baikal family of the Hand of the North? That is the treasury of the great emperor! If you, the Hand of the North, don't contribute money and food? How can the great Emperor Lagran go on an expedition!

"That's it! Weilin Angus, you take all the guards of Lagrande City and stay here!" Roland nodded to Weilin Angus first.

"Yes, sir!" said Weilin Angus respectfully.

"Fenglin Youlan and Fenglin Binglan, is it okay for you two to stay with the Romanian Knights?" Roland looked at the two again. "As you wish, my majesty!" The two bowed their heads.

"Well, the Badaniyan archer stays! Vanlwe, you go back and help watch over the Rapids City!" Roland knew that the grassland elves would definitely worry about Vanlwe after he had been away from home for too long. After all, Vanlwe was the last hope of the grassland elves.

"Okay!" Van Erwei nodded.

"Omsk, you and Mogus, take the Holy Knights back to Rapid City. They need a knight group as a mobile force! And the long border needs more high-level guards!" Roland ordered Omsk.

"Luke and Merck, you two will return to Rapid City with all the Rapid Infantrymen, right?" Roland looked at Luke Leopold and Merck Leopold.

"No problem, Your Majesty!" The two nodded to indicate that they had no problem.

"Alistar, take your people back. The kingdom has seen your loyalty!" Roland nodded to Alistar. After all, after the fall of South City, the city was filled with goblin knights fighting with orcs, and his people also suffered heavy casualties. If it weren't for the forbidden spell of God, the entire tribe would have been almost wiped out. As mercenaries, only the goblin mercenaries could fight to the death with high morale after nearly half of the army was killed or wounded and still fight to the death.

"The spellcasters have also returned to Rapid City. I feel uneasy if there is no powerful spellcaster army stationed there!"

"The rest of you can stay here. Lagrande City is not big, and these soldiers are enough to defend the city!" Roland said to everyone.

Finally, six level six warriors, Adolf Heinrich, Charlie Pross, Kaslo, Darian Nightblade, Fenglin Youlan and Fenglin Binglan, stayed here. Correspondingly, Roland sent away most of the troops, leaving only more than 4,000 of the most elite professional troops to guard the city.

……

"Have a safe journey!" Roland looked at the army that was about to set off and nodded to signal them that they could go.

"Take care, Your Majesty!" Omsk and the others bowed to Roland from a distance and then led the team back home.

……

"Let's go, Your Majesty, they are all gone!" Darien Nightblade reminded.

"Let's go!" Roland shook his head and retracted his thoughts. It would take a long time to see each other again from now on! At least the Imperial Avenue needs to be built to Pingnan City! Now it is estimated that it has only been built to the territory of the former Imperial Beidu Fort...

"Your Majesty! The McDougal family needs the help of the kingdom!" Just as Roland was thinking, Fenglin Binglan interrupted Roland's thoughts.

  "McDoug?" Roland was stunned. How did she know?
