Thinking of this, Ron breathed a sigh of relief. All the problems were actually not big problems and the risks were not high.
This is the case when expanding territory. It won't be smooth sailing and all kinds of troubles will come your way.
But the solution is very simple, just cut through the mountains and build bridges over the water.
As long as you get through the most difficult early stages, the rest of the road will become smoother and smoother.
Ron's ambition is not limited to being a small lord. His short-term goal is to become the winner of this pioneering war and to get at least one-third of the fertile land.
After being conferred the title of Lord, he began to prepare his army and waited for chaos in the North so that he could fight for the position of high noble!
I believe it won’t be long before the Leonard family will be great again.
The holy sword that symbolizes the glory of the family will shine again.

Winter City, a luxurious mansion.
Two men in black robes, hoods, and with two daggers on their waists, faced the central seat, knelt on one knee, and spoke respectfully;
"My Lord, Leonard Ron's mansion, I don't know if they got wind of it or what, but the guards were even tighter last night. We didn't even have a chance to climb over the wall of the mansion. Especially the Knight Commander, he didn't sleep all night and was guarding Leonard Ron's door."
The two of them were assassins trained by the Wilson family, but they took severely flawed potions and could only be promoted to level two at best.
Moreover, his strength is far less than that of a normal shadow assassin, and his ability to hide his aura is greatly reduced.
If a shadow assassin has taken a complete level one potion, he can hide his breath very well and will not give up the assassination when he sees the patrolling knight.
"As we approach the frontier, we are on high alert."
Wilson Gray frowned and shook his head in amazement when he heard the news.
"It seems that this kid from the Leonard family is not as bad as he seems on the surface. He must have some hidden strength."
He has never been a reckless man who only looks at the surface of things.
The contempt I showed at the banquet last time was actually intentional for others to see.
His purpose was to test Leonard Ron's attitude. Seeing the panic he showed on the other side, he did not believe it completely.
As someone who grew up in the world of fame and fortune, attended various aristocratic banquets, and was accustomed to intrigues, he would not easily believe what he saw.
"With such deep thoughts, they chose a place like the swamp to develop. Squeak, squeak, squeak..."
Wilson Gray smacked his lips, shook his head and laughed;
"To be honest, if it weren't for our sworn enemy, I really wouldn't want to be an enemy of this kind of person. Even though he's very weak right now, if I don't completely crush him to death, I'm afraid I won't be able to sleep for the rest of my life."
"My Lord, what should we do?"
The Knight Commander beside him frowned when he heard this and expressed his guess;
"Then do we need to launch a surprise attack before he opens up his territory?"
He felt that since the situation was so serious, it must be resolved as soon as possible.
"No, no, no Alva, this method won't work against such a deep-minded person."
Wilson Gray waved his hand and explained patiently:
"Before the territory is built, he will definitely arrange sentries near the swamp. If we attack him now, he will definitely escape into the depths of the swamp. It will be difficult to find him then."
"What should I do?"
The knight commander named Alva suddenly became troubled and didn't know how to deal with this difficult problem.
"Easy to handle."
Wilson Gray's eyes gleamed with gold as he spoke confidently:
"Once he has completed the construction of his territory, he will be reluctant to give it up, and then we will have no choice but to go to war."
In his opinion, no one would give up the territory they had worked so hard to build.
Even those with deep thoughts are no exception. If the other party really gives up, he will lose his territory and completely lose the qualification to become a lord...

Time passed quickly and it was dusk in a blink of an eye.
After traveling for a day, the caravan was exhausted. Of course, the most tired and hungry were the serfs who had been following behind for a day.
Seeing that they had stopped, everyone collapsed to the ground, no matter if it was grass or mud, they just fell down and gasped for breath.
Expanding territory is no joke and we won't stop just because someone is exhausted.
If you can't keep up with the team, you're basically dead.
No one would choose to fall behind at this time. Most people had blisters on their feet, and the blisters broke, revealing the scarlet flesh, but they still endured the pain and continued on their journey.
"Everyone, stay where you are. The knights will start setting up tents. Send another ten knights to build simple sentry towers one kilometer away from this point. They will take turns to keep watch."
After getting off the carriage, Ron began to give orders for the next actions in an orderly manner.
The wild is far more dangerous than you imagine. In addition to humans, there may also be ferocious alien beasts. Any carelessness can be fatal.
"Yes!"
After receiving the order, the knights began to act with clear division of labor.
"You guys build your own tents outside the city. After you're done, everyone will get a piece of rye bread and half an onion."
After the knights began to act, Ron gave an order to the large group of subjects.
"Thank you, thank you, Lord."
They did not complain about the lack of bread. Instead, their eyes were full of desire and gratitude for the food.
In the eyes of most people, as long as they can fill their stomachs, it's enough.
As for things like setting up a tent, they can figure it out with their anus, and they need to do it themselves.
Farmers who are familiar with each other can share a tent with three to five people, which saves both money and effort.
After all, a tent is only needed on the road and before setting up a house, so there is no need to buy one separately.
"Ah."
Ron nodded with satisfaction. These lower-class people were easier to deal with than he had imagined. As long as they stuttered, they would basically not cause trouble.
Of course, we have to be prepared for this kind of thing. After the tent was built, I and the maid Yalong lived in the main tent in the center.
Let the knights take turns patrolling at night to avoid any trouble.
"It's really surprising that the master arranges things so methodically."
Fiona couldn't help but exclaim in admiration. She originally thought that Ron, who had never participated in the pioneering, would encounter all kinds of difficulties and would need her, the maid, to complete everything.
I didn't expect that with just a few words, all the team's affairs were arranged properly.
The little Ron seems to have grown up.
At this moment, Fiona showed a gratified smile. She felt that her master was becoming more and more mature and had the qualities to become an excellent lord.
"If I, your master, can't even do this, how can I be a good lord?"
Ron's goal is not as simple as becoming a small lord, because the weak in this world can only be bullied.
Only by becoming a powerful being that everyone fears can you live like a human being.
In Ron's view, this pioneering war is the cornerstone of his future dominance.
Participating in such a pioneering war can gain a lot of experience. Although he now understands a little bit about everything, only by experiencing it personally can he gain real understanding.
In the future, you will be more adept at leading troops to fight battles and capture cities.
It can be said that this pioneering war is a training ground for novices. Only those who survive can move on to the next level...
Chapter 92: Renee sent me wild vegetable soup! Lucia offered me her tail to pinch!
The evening glow lost the setting sun and gradually disappeared into the horizon.
Darkness crept up the treetops and the birds had returned to their nests.
After an hour of hard work, the tent was set up.
"Master, dinner is ready."
Early in the morning, Fiona asked the kitchen to prepare barbecue for three meals today.
Now just reheat it and enjoy.
If you don't make it in advance and want to eat barbecue, you have to kill chickens and sheep, boil water, pluck the hair, cut open the belly, and then make a fire to roast it.
After going through this series of processes, it takes at least two hours before you can eat it.
"Ah."
Ron nodded and said to the Asian dragon woman beside him:
"Little dragons, it's time for dinner."
"Great! Lucia is so hungry after walking all the way~"
Lucia rubbed her deflated belly, and ambergris continued to secrete from her mouth.
"How can you be tired after sleeping in a carriage all day?"
The corners of Ron's mouth twitched. The human serfs followed behind him and walked sixty miles a day without saying anything, but this lazy little dragon was tired.
"Hehe~ I'm not tired, I'm just very hungry~"
Lucia was honest, she wasn't tired at all, but she didn't know if it was because of the bumpy ride in the carriage, but she was getting hungry quickly.
"But I'm afraid you'll be hungry for the next two days."
Ron sat on the main seat and spoke with a serious expression;
"Because there is not enough barbecue prepared for the journey, your food is reduced by half."
The main reason is that this little water dragon eats too much. It will probably take another four days to reach the swamp. Judging from the way it eats, there will definitely not be enough meat.
