Chapter 76: Defeat Remas
"There are wild orcs over there, hurry over, or they will be robbed if you are late."
Several soldiers shouted and rushed forward, and there were indeed a few wild orcs in front. Seeing so many people rushing over, the wild orcs were crazy, but they were not idiots. Seeing so many soldiers rushing over, of course they had to run away.
But the wild orcs could not run faster than so many people after all. Soon a group of soldiers rushed up and then shot arrows at this side crazily. In just two breaths, several unlucky wild orcs turned into hedgehogs.
After a large number of troops rushed into Remas, they were almost unstoppable within two days. All wild orcs were no match in their hands. Unless it was a large group of wild orcs, a small number of wild orcs would either run away or die when they saw it. Gradually, a large number of wild orcs were driven away and kept fleeing to the back.
"Not good, everyone run quickly, it's the evil beast dogs." A team that went too deep encountered some troubles.
A dozen evil beast dogs saw the team here and did not run away, but rushed directly over. Compared to the wild orcs, these evil beast dogs are actually crazier, especially when they are not controlled by the wild orcs.
A large number of arrows flew out, but this time the effect was not good. The fur of the evil beast dogs is harder and they are very fast. As a result, when they rushed to the front, the evil beast dogs only had a few more arrows on their bodies.
A large number of evil beast dogs rushed into the soldiers, and then they started to bite and kill madly. Seeing that they could not escape, the soldiers roared and swung their weapons fiercely, attacking madly.
"Damn evil beast dogs, kill them for me." In the center of the team, a guy with oily hair and powder shouted loudly. Although this person was also wearing armor, this armor was shiny and reflective, very beautiful and gorgeous, and many places were even hollowed out. The helmet on his head was only a thin layer.
This armor can only be used for decoration at a glance, and it has no practical use at all. And the face of this noble was also abnormally pale. It was obviously the first time he encountered such a powerful creature as the evil beast dog, and he was terrified.
After a while, the evil beast dog finally couldn't resist so many soldiers and was worn out.
"Damn evil beast dogs, these rubbish should be killed."
"Lord Mocha, this time a total of 16 evil beast dogs were killed, and your merit has increased." These nobles came here to gild and earn merit. There is no way, who can't let them become lords here.
Since they can't get a piece of territory, military merit is also very important. As long as there are enough military merits, after Remas conquers, those ownerless territories will eventually have a piece of theirs.
"But sir, this time in order to kill these evil beast dogs, our soldiers also suffered a lot of losses. More than 100 soldiers died, and at least 300 were injured. And the soldiers are already very tired, and I suggest you take a rest."
The person who spoke before cursed: "Those lowly people died, can they be compared with your merits?"
"Yes, yes, they are just some ordinary people. It is their honor to be able to earn credit for this sir."
The latter sighed: "But sir, the soldiers are now frightened and can't keep the formation. If you force them to set off, the loss will be greater. Without these soldiers, your merits will be gone." To deal with the nobles, you can only use what they care about most, otherwise they will not listen to you.
Hearing this, the noble hesitated. He can ignore the lives of the civilians and soldiers under his command, but he can't ignore the tools for his military merits.
If the tools are gone, how can he get military merits? Sure enough, after hearing this, the noble finally calmed down and asked the team to stop and rest.
Similarly, there were also many nobles who simply ignored their subordinates and forced their exhausted troops to charge, soon surpassing the overall defense line of the team, breaking out on their own, regardless of their friendly forces.
Fortunately, there were only a few who had no brains. Most people knew the dangers of evil beast dogs and wild orcs. After seeing their threats, they began to advance step by step. Overall, the defense line of the human army was still very solid. If this continued, the wild orcs might really be driven out.
Gradually, piece by piece, the land was cleared. The nobles who had left their territories because of the attacks of the wild orcs returned to their own lands one after another, and their eyes were immediately filled with tears.
Similarly, a large number of new nobles were also sent to this place, which were the products of compromise in the rear.
Many lords who had not yet arrived in their own territories gathered together. "Oh, really, those territories are obviously ours, why can't we evacuate?"
A young man next to him said dissatisfiedly: "You are still lucky. After evacuating, you will just become ordinary nobles and lose your own territory. We are miserable. If we, the new lords, leave, we will never get any territory in our lifetime, including the next three generations. But as long as you can make merit, you can get your own territory back."
An old man not far away sighed: "I don't want to think so much now, I just want to protect this piece of territory well."
Many people rolled their eyes: "You are the luckiest. If your family's direct lineage had not died out, how could you inherit the title and become a lord."
That's right. This old man used to be a branch of a family. He had no right of inheritance and might not be much better than a commoner in the future. Thanks to the attack of the wild orcs, this guy prayed a lot behind his back.
Because all the people in the main family died, only his branch was left in the branch, so he could inherit the title and obtain the territory. Becoming a noble all of a sudden is simply a step to heaven.
"Hey, I don't know how many years I can live as an old man. After I die, these things will be left to my son. I just earned a family business for my son."
Although he said so, the smile on the old man's face was not fake. Anyone could see that he was in a good mood.
"Okay, you guys continue chatting, I'm here." Suddenly, a silent man spoke up and then left the team. With a wave of his hand, his men followed and walked towards the abandoned village not far away.
This area is his territory, but whether it can be developed well, that's unknown. After all, there is no one here now. Because of the attack of the wild orcs, everyone who could run away ran away.
