Ryan watched the nobles reveal the exposed news, but his eyes fell on Silver Stream County.
That Viscount Hogg must have secretly supported Count Weiss's large amount of food and wealth. That was the richest place in Northwind Province's land.
Ryan I knew before that how much food those barbarians consumed. Each barbarian ate at least seven or eight ordinary people's food every day.
Viscount Hogg What did you gain from this? Ryan got the answer on the third day.
There are only a thousand people, but each one is at least composed of Apprentice Knight. This cavalry army already has the mold of the Extraordinary Legion. The ambition of this viscount is also not small.
The key thing is that he actually owns so many war horses.
"It is said that Viscount Hogg and Imperial House have a relatively close relationship. The current Viscountess is still the daughter Imperial House."
Ryan pondered, if this is the case, it would not be so strange. Viscount Hogg, as a viscount, occupied the position of Silver Stream County Sheriff.
"But speaking of it, in addition to the indigenous nobles here in Beifeng Province, other nobles are related to many nobles in the south. I don't know what the other nobles' attitude is in this war."
Northwind Province's war is about to break out, and Ryan is also feeling the pressure.
Among the seven counties in the province, Count Weiss has the support of the nobles Thundercloud County and Silver Stream County on the other side, and the power of Iron Mountain County and the three counties of Dragon Mountain County and Northwind County where the two earls are located.
The only ones left are Cold Mountain County and Zero Crossing Prefecture.
Cold Mountain County After the brutal looting of Orcs, most of the nobles were dead. Now they are trying every means to do misfortune within the empire and between Northwind Province. There are many sympathizers. In order to show the kindness of the noble master, every noble he meets will give more or less.
Then the only one left who can establish military power is Zero Crossing Prefecture.
"It's very difficult for me to deal with your delay in giving me any benefits."
Ryan stuck out his tongue and licked his lips. Before he had a good bargain with the countess, she left. He was ready to open his mouth.
The messenger from the governor seemed to have heard Ryan's call and arrived at Frozen Earth Territory in the evening of the same day.
Taking off his hood, this Horace·Winter Lordship from Count Winter Territory was also a little shocked by Frozen Earth Territory who looked like a town, and then he was welcomed into the castle on Rhino Horn Mountain with a smile on his face.
"Lord Horla It is an honor for Tundra to come to Frozen Earth Territory."
Ryan's words were very helpful to Lord Horla, and the eyes looking at Ryan became kind. For a Sky Knight, such a smiling gaze is indeed kind, right?
Of course Ryan knows this person, Horace·Winter, the younger brother of Count Winter, and also the twin star of their generation Winter Family, and now the deputy Legion Commander of the Flying Wolf Knight Legion, but in fact this person is in charge of everything about the Extraordinary Legion.
"Baron Ryan, I come here on behalf of my lord, Count Winter."
Lord Horla performed an aristocratic courtesy towards Ryan. After all, Ryan is Baron, and he will become the future Lordship of Lordship after he is an Divine Grace Festival.
The nobles used their great power to establish the nobility, and the nobles themselves abided by the ancient precepts.
Ryan nodded and said:
"I want to know your purpose of coming."
"Count Winter people invite all nobles of Zero Crossing Prefecture to join in the fight against Count Weiss's ambition to rule. Northwind Province belongs to every noble, not just to Count Weiss."
Ryan looked at Lord Horla and couldn't help but sigh.
"Lord Horla, Zero Crossing Prefecture were attacked by Orcs. A large amount of our wealth and food were plundered. Our people, not even a single house can withstand the cold. According to experienced old people, this winter may be extremely cold."
"We have also experienced war. Our land needs to be reclaimed and our houses need to be rebuilt. As you can see, the nobles of Zero Crossing Prefecture do not want to start a war."
"For this reason, I am thinking of ways to refuse Count Weiss's invitation. He even promised to give Zero Crossing Prefecture's nobles half of Iron Mountain County's mineral income."
"Half?"
Lord Horla exclaimed, then shook his head repeatedly.
"It's impossible, Baron Ryan, Count Weiss is absolutely impossible to give you such huge benefits, he is deceiving you."
As a Winter Count Family person, Lord Horla certainly knows how many Iron Ore Iron Mountain County has and how many weapons it can provide every year.
"Whether it's true or not, I'm going to refuse."
Ryan said, and then looked at Lord Horla, why is this Sky Knight not very smart and unable to grasp the key points.
After all, he is a noble. With such a mind, if he cannot become Legendary in the future, he will easily die on the battlefield.
After a long time, Viscount Horace finally talked about his purpose.
"On behalf of Governor Count Winter, I invite Zero Crossing Prefecture and Baron Ryan because I want you to send troops to help the nobles of Iron Mountain County resist the invaders."
"The count will promise to give you a reward of 150,000 Gold Coin and 2,500 entry-level Life Potion."
Ryan is a little frightened. After calculation, four hundred thousand Gold Coin's wealth?
No, that's not right. There is a Saint Domain Mage in Count Winter Territory, so there must be Mage Tower and other Magess who follow the countess. Therefore, the value of Life Potion is probably only one-tenth or two-tenths at most.
Almost, a reward of 200,000?
This number makes Ryan a little dissatisfied.
And for Ryan, Life Potion is the most important thing for knight practice, but he doesn't need it very much. His divine blessing effect is better than Life Potion, so for so long, his soldiers have never used anything like Life Potion.
After the value of Life Potion was greatly discounted to Count Winter, Ryan received another discount, so the value of this reward made Ryan even more dissatisfied.
"I don't need Life Potion, but I need to replace it with other items of equal value, such as food, livestock, weapons, war horses, etc."
Horace is a little shocked and incomprehensible. Will any noble refuse Life Potion and exchange it for those cheap things? Except for war horses.
The weapons at Northwind Province are indeed cheaper.
"Baron Ryan Is there a way to obtain Life Potion?"
Lord Horla asked directly, and then thought of Ryan's last name, and seemed to have the answer, so he asked no more questions.
"I need to ask the earl for instructions on this matter. Baron Ryan What you want is really... unexpected."
Then, Horace's methods made Ryan feel how convenient it is to have the support of Saint Domain Mage who masters Space Magic.
On the fortress of Rhino Horn Mountain, Lord Horla made contact with the distant Count Winter.
