Lord Harland.

Chapter 125 Entrusted with an important task
Although William was not transferred to the Legion Department as the deputy head of the army, after all, he was promoted and his influence in the Northern Army was greatly increased.

The third brigade he transferred was also the main brigade of the Northern Legion, and its combat effectiveness was stronger than that of the sixth brigade.

With him in the Northern Legion, there are people above Bernie, and the backbone promoted by William below.

Even if the new captain wants to replace with his own people, it will take a long time to slowly transfer.

After all, there are no vacancies, no mistakes, and it is difficult to easily replace people in the army.

Li Cha greeted his third uncle, Bernie, and sat in the seat of the commander of the noble coalition forces of Heihe County. He looked at the officers around him, and found that Li Cha's position was relatively forward.

All the officers attending the meeting had arrived, but Jerram and the housekeeper Saville stood at the gate of the Santo's Mansion, waiting respectfully for someone.

"The Heihe County Noble Coalition Army came yesterday, how is their quality?"

Seeing that the commander-in-chief, Duke Roger, hadn't come yet, Jerram quietly asked Saville.

"I took a look, and Li Cha still has a good view of the overall situation. He mobilized three main squadrons and one squadron of monster cavalry. Half of the noble coalition forces in Heihe County are elite soldiers."

"I wanted to mess with Li Cha, but I didn't expect him to call in elite soldiers. I'm in a dilemma. I don't know what to do? .

"The Scarlet Horn rebelled, and the rebellion will not be put down for a long time. At this critical moment, we must not fight among ourselves. The old fox in the capital can't hide the commotion. He must be held accountable at that time.

Besides, Li Cha's temper is very bad, if we punish him, this person's backlash may be terrible.Now we need him to contribute, so don't annoy this person and make trouble for yourself.

I think that the army led by Li Cha is the most elite, and the logistics should be given priority to replenish him. This will not only consume the elite soldiers under Li Cha's command, but also leave a reputation for taking care of the overall situation in the capital. "

"You're right. Since I can't afford to mess with a young man like Li Cha, I might as well praise him, let him face the rebels head-on, consume his strength, and then make further plans."

While the two were whispering, Duke Roger, the commander-in-chief of the counter-insurgency campaign, rode a unicorn to the governor's mansion.

Roger is the younger brother of King Charles. He has two titles, one is the Duke of the Court and the other is the Hereditary Earl.

Court Dukes, while they sound nice, need the trust of the kingdom to wield power.

Moreover, the court duke is not a hereditary title, and will be reduced in the next generation.

After five generations, the offspring will become ordinary people.

The hereditary earl is the real great nobleman of the kingdom, as long as the territory exists, the title can be inherited forever.

But it is very difficult to become a great nobleman. Kill legends on the battlefield, command a famous victory, expand the territory of the Grant Kingdom, and make military exploits.Or make military exploits many times and accumulate enough fiefdoms.

In the past hundred years, the Kingdom of Grant has only two new Earls, Roger and Martins.

Although Roger was about the same age as William, his achievements were much greater than William's.

Although not as famous as Martins, who was legendary for beheading the orcs, his merits accumulated over the years are enough to become a hereditary earl.

In defeating the orc army two years ago, Roger led the Warcraft cavalry under his command, which also played a very crucial role.

This time the king did not use Martins to quell the rebellion, but chose Roger. In fact, it was to allow Roger to accumulate military exploits, increase prestige, and by the way, make a fortune from the war and speed up the management of the territory.

It was rumored that King Charles favored the appointment of Martins as commander, but the Duke of Brenner favored Roger.

The Duke of Brenner is over 180 years old. The knight blood of the Grant royal family is the Fiery Lion, and the source of the extraordinary blood is not a long-lived species.

Even with precious potions, it can last up to 20 years.

Twenty years later, if Roger can't be the leader, the political structure of the Grant Kingdom may be in trouble.

Duke Jonathan, the dragon blood knight, may increase his prestige greatly and suppress others.

Although there are five legends in the Grant Kingdom, the other three are warriors, and one is a vassal of Duke Edward.

Legendary warriors do not have blood spells, and their combat power is not much different from that of legendary knights. It takes two or three of them to join forces to compete with legendary knights.

What's more, the lifespan of a legendary warrior is only 150 years old, while a legendary dragon knight can live for 300 years. At that time, there may be a situation where the outside is more important than the inside.

For the next 200 years, the Grant royal family will also live in the shadow of Duke Jonathan.Once the power of the two families is out of balance, the Grant dynasty is in danger of collapse.

Roger and Jerram greeted each other, then nodded with Savile and entered the venue.

Roger spread out a map, pointed to the City of Victory in Canyon County on the map, and said: "According to the secret report, the Scarlet Horn is preparing to hold a large-scale blood sacrifice in the City of Victory, hoping to awaken the God of Slaughter.

The date of the blood sacrifice was set on October [-]th, which was the birthday of the God of Slaughter.

In order to prevent the evil god from waking up early, we must break through the City of Victory and destroy the blood sacrifice ceremony of the Scarlet Horn before October [-]th. "

Hearing the explosive news, Li Cha was shocked.

He has been in the Chenxi Continent for 11 years, and he has only heard of the Church of the Seven Gods, but he did not expect that there are evil gods in this plane.

Li Cha was at a loss as to what was going on with the God of Slaughter.

After all, Li Cha's background is very low, and he doesn't know any secret information.

However, hearing the name of this evil god, it seemed that he was not easy to provoke, and Li Cha was also a little worried in his heart.

Seeing the solemn expressions of the officers present, Roger knocked on the table and said, "The cult of the Scarlet Horn has a total of six legends. The legendary black magic master Marlo the Nightwalker who came to our Grant Kingdom this time to do things.

But you don't have to worry, the Church of Dawn will send a cardinal Mavela to help us.Marlow is dealt with by legends of the Church of Dawn, and our mission is to suppress the rebellion and kill the cultists hiding in the country.

I decided to take the two brigades of the Northern Legion and the Royal Knights as the core, and go straight to the city of victory, the stronghold of the rebels.The Allied Forces of the Lomonshire Nobles and the Allied Forces of the Wrightshire Nobles followed the main force to fight.

The coalition forces of the nobles in Heihe County are relatively strong and can undertake the task of partial division.Reinforce Brenner County, cooperate with the Brenner County Noble Alliance Army, and eliminate the rebels.

After entering Brenner County, Baron Richard served as the commander of the coalition forces of the nobles of the two counties. "

"Guaranteed to complete the mission."

Brenner County has a large population, almost twice the size of Black River County, at over a million people.Although the nobles of this county are already in the rear, every time the orcs invade, they will still be recruited to participate in the orc invasion war.The combat experience is not as good as that of Heihe County, but better than that of Canyon County further south.

The hereditary nobles of Brenner County have been passed down for many years, and their territory was developed earlier. They are generally richer than the nobles of Heihe County. Their subordinates can support more off-duty soldiers.

The hereditary aristocrats of Brenner County tried their best because they were guarding the family.The coalition forces of nobles in this county are much stronger than the coalition forces organized by Heihe County. There are a total of 4000 squadrons of regular troops and [-] squadrons of auxiliary soldiers.That adds up to more than [-] people.

According to the convention, the commander of the coalition forces of the Brenner nobles should be the commander-in-chief, and Li Cha should be the deputy commander of the coalition forces.

Li Cha had never met Duke Roger, and he did not expect him to entrust him with an important task to take an overview of the situation.
