"It's just a Count family, what do you have to be afraid of?" Seeing that he was isolated for an instant, Low-level Silver Knight couldn't help but yelled.

"Is that because you, an idiot, don't know the whole story and think Ex Family is just a Count family?"

"The Baron family, who came from a nouveau riche family, I advise you to report it to the police and get to know the outside world well. Don't just focus on this small place Cadro Province."

"Shut up now, or I'll make you, this idiot, disappear on the way, so as not to bring disaster to us."

All the Silver Knights around him could not bear to be scolded, so this Low-level Silver Knight realized that the situation was not good, and took the initiative to retreat to the end, not daring to say anything anymore, and made up his mind to end Defense Force's duties. He did not speak out to express his opinions to avoid bringing trouble to his master.

High-rank Silver Knight glanced at it coldly, and then returned to a warm expression. "This area is located at the northern end of the Cadro Province border, close to the Iron Forge Dwarven Mountain Kingdom border. There are many Centaur activities outside the cleaning area. Everyone gathers here to sum up."

"Yes, think about it from another perspective. Our team has the most high-end combat power and has an incomparable advantage compared to other troops."

When everyone heard it, they thought in a flash that it was indeed the case, and started a heated discussion, except for a certain idiot.

Early the next morning, according to the original plan, Defense Force was divided into five troops and left Knight Order's original station.

During the march, Flora called Velin aside and asked, "Is there anything that needs to be solved in your territory? We will solve it together during this operation."

Velin After hearing this, he thought about it carefully, then shook his head and said, "I don't know, my territory has just been developed for a year, and the surrounding investigation scope is not very large."

"I understand."

Flora then called the messengers over and went to call the deputy commander.

A moment later, a knight rode a war horse and came to the hillside from the front of the team. He turned over and dismounted. Flora saluted and said, "Captain, you are looking for me."

"Miller, how is the integration of the troops?"

"Very smooth." Miller heard this and reported to Flora, "The soldiers at the bottom showed no resistance. Judging from the information reported by the commanders of each unit, the officers at the bottom were almost actively cooperating with our Command Department team. Except for a very few, I threw them into the "Vanguard Camp", and I prepared to consume them in the first wave."

"Well, let them get some snacks and gradually gain control of the troops during the march, so that they won't have to start hanging chains when the time comes." Flora nodded with satisfaction.

"Second, within the original area, let the scouts expand the scope of their reconnaissance and mark all tribes with more than 300 monsters."

"Yes, Captain."

Then Miller rode away from the hillside.

"Commander, I'm going down too." After seeing Miller leave, Velin and Flora said.

"Well, you go down and take this opportunity to exercise more."

"Yes."

Subsequently, Velin rode on Red Phosphorus Horse and went to the rear of the marching team.

As a Silver Knight, he also gained the command of a Thousand-man Squad.

In order to better control the troops, Velin used the 200 infantrymen he brought as the backbone and mixed them with the 800 people assigned to him.

At the same time, twenty Knight Squire were also organized into Supervision Squad and relay soldiers to help them convey orders and Command Department teams.

Looking at the orderly marching team, Velin nodded with satisfaction.

"Shang, do you need to send someone to contact Lord Belder and the others in advance?" Kyle rode up to Velin and asked.

After some thinking, Velin ordered, "Send two people back to inform Belder and Orlando to assemble the troops and be on standby at any time, if they may be needed."

"Yes."

After Kyle's suggestion, Velin had a bold idea in his mind.

If possible, after Defense Force evacuates, they can occupy the Earthen Fort they temporarily built as an advance base to develop Graylight Wasteland.

After five days of normal march, the team of 8,000 people finally arrived at the pre-planned location - Deer Gate Mountain, a location that was easy to defend but difficult to attack.

Velin followed Flora, stepping on the rocks on Lumen, looking at Earth Wall surrounded by piles of dirt, but it was only a broken wall.

"Three hundred years ago, this was a Gnoll city." Miller, standing behind Flora, suddenly said.

"Here?" Velin asked Yu somewhat uncertainly.

"Yes, it's here." Miller nodded and continued, "Three hundred years ago, my ancestor was an adventurer and had been here. In the diary left by his old man, it was accurately recorded that Deer Gate Mountain City was a Gnoll Small City. At that time, more than a thousand Gnoll lived."

"I see, it's just that it's a bit dilapidated here."

As for why it turned into the current scene, Velin probably has a clear idea.

"Miller, first let people clean up this place, set up camp, and then start assigning specific tasks."

"Yes, Captain."

Subsequently, a Thousand-man Squad arrived at the scene and began to clear the gravel and soil clods on the ground and level the land.

There are a thousand people, all professionals, each one is worth three or four strong laborers, and they work very efficiently.

Towards the afternoon, a large area of land was leveled, and then a large number of marching tents were set up.

At night, in the command camp, the commander, deputy commander, eight captains and other officers came here for a meeting.

"After discussions between Miller and I, we have decided on the following order."

Including Velin, eight captains stood up, waiting for orders from the commander Flora.

"The first, third, Fifth Street and Seventh Thousand-Man Team serve as First Battalion, the second, fourth, first and eighth Thousand-man Squad serve as Second Battalion."

"With a cycle of half a month, the two battalions take turns responsible for clearing and fortification tasks."

"I announce that First Battalion will be responsible for the clearing mission, and Second Battalion will be responsible for the city building mission."

"The next day, I will assign combat missions to each commander, and the plan will be officially implemented the day after tomorrow."

"Yes."

The eight captains answered loudly and then returned to the queue.

Flora looked around and continued to order, "Logistics Troops complete the logistics supply task and ensure the safety of food and military equipment."

"Yes, sir."

Logistics Minister, a Silver Knight stood up and answered loudly.

"The meeting is over now. Let me go back and have a good rest."

"Yes."

Everyone left the camp one by one and headed to the area where their troops were located.

As the captain of Seventh Thousand-Man Team, Velin came to the upper left area of the camp.

"Come on, do you need me to summon all the centurions?" Kyle saw Velin coming back and stepped forward to salute.

"No, let them have a good rest and we will assign tasks later."

"Yes."

Kyle was ordered to retire. Velin went directly into his tent and fell down on the carpet to rest.
