MTL - The Lord of the Rings: Lords of Middle-earth-Chapter 38 Lord of the North

"What's wrong?" Roland was startled, it wasn't because the half-orc army came to kill him...

"Your Highness! There are a lot of people on the other side of the river! It looks like there are thousands of people." The soldier told Roland the truth honestly.

"I'm going! Could it be that River Valley City was bombed, right?" Roland jumped up directly. In addition to River Valley City, Roland really didn't know any place where thousands of humans could escape.

……

At this time, in the Hexi outpost, the knights stationed in it climbed to the city wall of the outpost early, held the bows and arrows in their hands, and looked nervously at the crowd of people in front of them.

"May I meet the lord of this place, please?" A young man with blond hair came out.

"..." The knights on the city wall remained silent. Before their lords arrived, the most correct thing was to shut up.

"Huh!" Caslo rode his four-legged flying dragon Kaldor and carried Roland to this place. The flying dragon landed on the top of the sentry tower, and Roland jumped down from the dragon's back.

"Your Highness, they want to see you?" A knight came over to report to Roland.

"Meet me? Okay, let's meet." Roland nodded.

……

As the iron-clad wooden door opened a small crack, the young man outside the post quickly entered, and then the door closed immediately.

"Hello, respected lord here, it's a pleasure to meet you. I'm Bai Yi, the lord of the Cardan tribe in the northern wasteland." Bai Yi bowed and saluted. Through this post, you can see the extraordinaryness of the lord in front of him. The magic power of walking, the fine magic patterns and the mighty flying dragon knight just now all revealed the strength of the lord in front of him.

"Hello, I'm Roland, King of Lagrang Kingdom." Roland nodded in salute.

Bai Yi raised his head in surprise. He didn't expect the young man in front of him to be the king, but it made sense. After all, a strategic power like the Dragon Knight can only be supported by a powerful kingdom. I don't know if Bai Yi will cry when he sees the real situation of Rapid City...

"Then what is your intention?" Roland asked curiously.

"Uh, is that so, can we rent this outpost as our current habitat?" Roland was taken aback as soon as Bai Yi opened his mouth.

"What do you mean?" Roland was shocked.

"Uh, our tribe was destroyed in the war in the north. We can only cross the gray mountains all the way to the south to avoid the harassment of the northern orcs..." Bai Yi said embarrassedly.

"Have you been to River Valley City and Elub?" Roland asked suddenly.

"I have already visited Lord Bard of River Valley City. He wanted to keep us there, but I refused. After all, we still hope to be independent, and my people still need my leadership." Bai Yi explained.

"Well." Roland nodded and agreed with his statement. After all, the competition for resources between lords is population. No lord wants to merge with others. Nor would such a rude suggestion be made.

Roland looked at the white wing in front of him regretfully, and couldn't help expressing sympathy for him. This silly boy led the people just out of the tiger's mouth and into the wolf's den, and he actually asked to be Roland's barrier... Such a good person makes Roland couldn't bear to cheat anymore.

"I'm sorry to tell you, I'm afraid you haven't escaped the harassment of the Orcs." Roland looked at White Wing with pity, and gently took out a sheepskin map and pointed to the location of Dogoldo.

"Here is the Orc Kingdom, King Azog, pale Orcs, at least between the 5th and 6th rank. Gundabad Mountain...Gambada! The Orc Fortress in the North, there is also an Orc Kingdom... ...Congratulations, you were successfully attacked by the orcs on both sides." Roland sighed regretfully.

"To be honest, there was a Lonely Mountain War at the foot of the Lonely Mountain some time ago, and the dwarf, human and elves allied force victoriously. The orcs are now planning to make a comeback." Roland threw another bomb.

"..." Bai Yi's eyes widened, an expression like I came from the countryside, I haven't read many books, don't lie to me.

"Actually, this is the reality..." Roland spread his hands.

"If you really plan to stay here, this outpost can be given to you, and you can build a city here. We will never care about the entire land west of the Swift River, as long as you can conquer other masters on the land." Roland sat on the chair On the calm road.

"I want to know the current situation of the Orcs in these places." Bai Yi thought about it and pointed to Dogoldo.

"What you worry about is exactly what I worry about..." Roland sighed softly.

"The knights under my command have just fought against them, and they have consciously extended their tentacles to the north, next spring at the latest..." Roland looked at Bai Yi and did not speak, but he understood that Bai Yi must understand what he meant. .

"Will you help us if we live here and the Orcs attack us?" White Wing asked the question he was most concerned about.

"Of course, I understand the reason why lips die and teeth are cold. We will not stand by and watch. After all, crossing the Swift River is our kingdom." Roland's eyes fell on the Swift River outside the window. The nearly 10-kilometer-wide river became a barrier. The natural danger of the Orc attack.

"We decided to stay here!" After Bai Yi lowered his head and thought for a while, he raised his head and answered loudly.

……

"My lord, I'll give it to them here?" Caslo asked Roland quietly as he watched the knights who were crossing the river in batches.

"What? Are you planning to keep our people here to face the army of half-orcs?" Roland stared at Caslow and said angrily.

"They have an advantage over our population." Roland glanced enviously at the busy northern tribesmen in front of him. There were at least nearly 3,000 soldiers here~www.novelbuddy.com~ nearly 500 soldiers. Roland was most surprised. I actually saw nearly 40 knights, and I heard Bai Yi say that these are the leftovers after their tribe suffered a tragic war, so should they form a knight in their heyday?

"The more people work, the faster they are!" Kaslow looked enviously at the people who had already brought back the cut logs and were preparing to build the log city wall.

"Don't worry, our people don't come back every day." Roland smiled and comforted him.

"Sir, you mean the return to Rapid City, where less than 150 people return in half a month? I see dwarves climbing over the Misty Mountains and returning to Eruber all day long..." Kaslow said with a dark face.

"Uh, after all, our wandering people are a little scattered..." Roland smiled awkwardly.

What Roland didn't know was that his small act of keeping White Wing today eventually shaped the kingdom of Akvia, known as the Twin Stars of the North, which was as famous as the River Valley Kingdom. My first town and busy.

"Okay, don't worry too much about the West Bank. Now it's time to improve our city defense. The two-meter-high city wall really doesn't feel safe at all." Roland complained.

Because of the city wall that was better than nothing, the soldiers who patrolled the city at night did not patrol the city wall. They only patrolled around the inhabited houses. Roland was really fed up with the unnecessary city wall. Every morning, after getting up in the morning, the soldiers should be organized to clean up the uninhabited city, because in the middle of the night, the beasts and the wandering orcs would climb over the city walls and hide in the dilapidated houses to rest.

"Then you have to wait... Your Excellency Lader is still in a weak period of excessive consumption of magic power." Caslow suddenly said weakly.

"Ah... I'm tired, let's destroy it."
