Throne of the North.

Chapter 90 A Change of Perspective

"After the Pan-Plane War of the Gods, many nobles realized one thing."

"That is the importance of elite troops, which far exceeds the number of troops."

"In the face of blood and death, the soldiers who do not retreat are the soldiers who can bring victory. In front of such an army, an army composed of slaves is qualified to be slaughtered."

"But they don't realize this. They are still using slaves on a large scale to form an army, trying to scare the enemy to death with numbers."

"It would be fine if the opposing army was the same, but if not, then they will surely be defeated."

"If we hadn't come at such a good time in this war, and hadn't waited for the opportunity for both armies to collapse, we would have been caught in a tough battle, and many infantrymen would have died."

On the battlefield, Ryan wrote his reflections on the war with blood. He knew that he was too bold to rush down with his army. If the soldiers of the nobles on both sides persisted for a while, his own soldiers would be in a tough fight.

After all, the military literacy of his soldiers was only slightly higher, and the only army he truly recognized was the more than one hundred cavalrymen.

On the battlefield, the rich smell of blood made Ryan feel uncomfortable breathing. He tore his expensive silk clothes to cover his mouth and nose. At dusk, the flames of burning corpses dyed the sky. The fiery red sea of ​​clouds recorded the cruelty of war, and even the beasts in the forest were afraid of the bloody turbidity and silence.

Ryan, Barnes and Lian, the three nobles, finally met with a dozen nobles from Viscount Dragun's side. Under the fiery red sunset, the contract between the nobles will be witnessed by the gods, although the gods don't care about this at all.

"Everything in the Ice Peak Forest will belong to us, whether it is the magic crystal mine, gold mine or iron mine, they all belong to the winner of this war, and the three baronies of the Frozen Earth Territory, the Divine Horse Territory, and the North Wind Flower will reasonably enjoy half of the ownership."

"..."

"The fairness and rationality of the contract will be recognized by all nobles. We swear on the honor of the nobles that a new war will never be started because of the division. The glory of the Lord of the Dawn will shine on our glory."

Viscount Dragun looked at Ryan and the other two in front of him and said expressionlessly:
“We will enjoy everything here together.”

Ryan smiled and performed standard aristocratic etiquette. At this point, they were once again in the relationship of baron and viscount.

"As you wish."

On Viscount Dragun's side, no noble would think that without Ryan and his army, they would lose everything in the Ice Peak Forest. They could only see that they had received more distribution now, and thus looked at Ryan and the other two with gritted teeth.

Especially Baron Roche, who had no choice but to join Viscount Dragun after losing his elite soldiers.

“The war is not over.”

Viscount Dragun said.

"Yes, it's not over yet."

Ryan looked at the viscount without retreating, and Baron Barnes beside him lowered his head subconsciously.

They all know what it means.

The war in the Ice Peak Forest does not mean the end of the war in the North Wind Province. Here they are fighting for wealth, profit and reputation, and the subsequent wars on their respective home territories will change the entire North Wind Province.

By then, it might affect the division of interests in the Bingfeng Forest.

For example, if Ryan and Barnes's territory was breached, their armies were annihilated, and they themselves were captured, would they have to exchange the benefits of the Ice Peak Forest, or use it as a ransom? Similarly, the reverse is also true. If Ryan led his army to defeat the lords of the entire Lingdu County, then the Ice Peak Forest would most likely be his alone.

Is this fair and reasonable? Of course, so hypocritical nobles have always had many ways to break their past vows.

"But Monsieur Vicomte."

Ryan continued to speak out.

"You have also seen that Earl Weiss sent his brother, Lord Atel, to Lingdu County in person. Moreover, Earl Weiss actually has an extraordinary army at his disposal."

"The third extraordinary legion of the Northern Wind Province has appeared, so before that, perhaps we should still be friends."

After being gloomy and angry, Viscount Dragun finally smiled.

"Hahahaha, that's right, Ryan. Miles actually dared to sell out the interests of Lingdu County. He is despised by the nobles. He gave up the glory of the Miles family. We will never allow other nobles to share our wealth. Similarly, Viscount Miles is not worthy of being the governor of Lingdu County."

"Of course I personally support you to become the master of that city." Ryan still had a smile on his face.

The atmosphere between the nobles on both sides finally eased at this moment. Viscount Dragun smiled and pulled Ryan to share the delicious food he brought.

Ryan was a little surprised. Did the viscount carry so many difficult-to-preserve things with his army even when he was marching and fighting?
But seeing the nobles around him taking it for granted, Ryan fell silent.

Come here.

"Ryan, you don't have an engagement yet, right?"

At the banquet, Viscount Dragun looked at Ryan and nodded with great satisfaction.

"We still have to wait for news from my father and mother at home."

Ryan said truthfully that if his guess was correct, the Clayton family would find a marriage partner for him. He had no intention of resisting this. This world was too lenient for nobles, and as a noble lady, she would definitely not look like the bucket lady.

Of course, Ryan himself was not in a hurry. He hadn't even turned sixteen yet and was just a fifteen and a half year old boy.

Maybe he should be anxious for the world, but his heart is different. At this age, he hasn't even finished school.

Therefore, Ryan chose not to hear the words of Viscount Dragun and the nobles around him, such as "I have a daughter" and "I have a sister".

Of course, at the end of the banquet, these nobles couldn't help but sigh and summed up their feelings in one sentence.

"Everyone underestimates you, the Baron of the Frozen Territory."

No one had ever thought that this war would fail (win) because of Ryan. They had to admit that when Ryan appeared on the hillside with his army, like a god sent from heaven, the army on the battlefield scattered like birds and beasts. It was incredible as if there really was a god favoring the lord of the frozen land.

"Perhaps, we should change our attitude towards this Frozen Territory Baron."

At this moment, many nobles in Lingdu County had similar thoughts in their hearts.
