Ryan's last words gave these nobles great confidence.

As the winner of Zero Crossing Prefecture, and as the commander of two wars that can be remembered, Ryan's military talent has been recognized by the nobles of Zero Crossing Prefecture and Northwind Province.

When many nobles educate their children, they want to train them as Ryan.

After all, given Ryan's age, Ryan didn't know what words to use to refute these nobles.

So, after dividing the money and Golden Potion, the nobles of Zero Crossing Prefecture reached an agreement and sent 10,000 troops to support Iron Mountain County.

Out of an army of 10,000 people, Ryan only produced 600, 500 of the most elite soldiers, and 100 logistics reserve soldiers.

The other nobles also paid two to three hundred for you and four or five hundred for me. More than 90% of them are slave soldiers. They believe that Ryan can bring them an elite army.

"So, I became their military training instructor?"

Three days later, looking at the chaotic 10,000 people in front of him, Ryan let out a long breath.

Don't be angry. If it hadn't been for such an army, how could you have defeated all the nobles of Zero Crossing Prefecture.

"Brandt, go and gather all the trained Apprentice Knight, Harrington, go and arrange the remaining slave soldiers into a square formation of one hundred people."

"At this time tomorrow, I want to see the results."

Harrington hesitated and said:

"Master Ryan, there are some nobles here, they are all relatives of those Baron..."

"This is the army. If you don't know how to do it, do you want me to do it myself?"

After Ryan finished speaking, he turned around and returned to Zero Crossing City.

He appeared in front of Northwind Province, the only relatively complete map in Zero Crossing City.

Many of them are unrecorded barren mountains and wilderness, and Ryan can still see the outlines of them.

Iron Mountain County is connected to Zero Crossing Prefecture, Thundercloud County and Silver Stream County respectively, which is why Count Winter wants to send Zero Crossing Prefecture The reason why he sent the army to help Iron Mountain County is because his army cannot cross Thundercloud County or Silver Stream County, which is controlled by Count Weiss, and enter Iron Mountain County.

However, after Iron Mountain County experienced Orcs going south, the land war, and a wave of massacres not long ago, they no longer had much strong resistance.

To put it simply, it is difficult for Iron Mountain County to have an elite army to resist the coalition forces of Viscount Hogg and Count Weiss.

Without reinforcements, Iron Mountain County would have fallen, and by then, Count Winter would have lost countless wealth.

After looking at Ryan for a long time, he threw the map away angrily.

"What a crappy map."

Staring at the map with only a few outlines, he couldn't see anything. He could only wait until he entered Iron Mountain County and rely on his own scouts to draw it himself.

Early the next morning, before Ryan went to inspect the army, a team of five Flying Wolf Cavalry appeared in Zero Crossing City in the distant sky.

"Master Viscount Walters of Iron Mountain County sent us to ask when Zero Crossing Prefecture's army will arrive at Iron Mountain County."

Ryan looked at the captain Luke·Winter of Flying Wolf Cavalry, the clansman of the Winter Family, the cultivation strength of Bronze Knight, and the fierce Unicorn Flying Wolf, the whole person looked majestic.

"Our troops have not yet been assembled. The time to go to Iron Mountain County will be a little later. We will set off in about ten days and we will arrive at Iron Mountain County in half a month."

Hearing Ryan's words, Captain Luke's expression became ugly, but he still did not dare to overstep his identity when facing a noble, so he could only whisper to Ryan:

"Sir Baron of the Frozen Earth, Viscount Walter let me tell you that Viscount Hogg's army and Count Weiss's army have entered Iron Mountain County and occupied more than a dozen mines. The territories of three Baron have been invaded. I hope you can arrive at Iron Mountain County soon."

"The best is to be able to reach Baron Malik's castle within three days."

"I told you, our troops haven't been assembled yet, so we can't do it so quickly."

Ryan said indifferently:

"If Count Winter can give me ten thousand flying wolves, I can appear in Baron Malik's territory tomorrow, but how is it possible with two legs now?"

"Go back and tell Viscount Walter to organize an army to resist the enemy's invasion. We will speed up to Iron Mountain County."

Ryan's unquestionable voice embarrassed Captain Luke, but in the end he had no choice but to leave.

After all, in Iron Mountain County's war, there were only five of them, Flying Wolf Cavalry, and they could only serve as messengers.

After Flying Wolf Cavalry left, Viscount Miles looked at him enviously and asked Ryan.

"Ryan, what if we arrive late and Iron Mountain County is occupied by Count Weiss's army?"

Ryan sneered:

"Iron Mountain County has a population of close to 200,000. Even with 200,000 goats, it is impossible to lose all the territory in half a month. Moreover, the nobles there still have their own fortresses, so nothing big will happen in half a month."

Ryan was not in such a hurry. After sending Flying Wolf Cavalry, he went to inspect his 10,000-man army. In ten days, he still wanted to make this army look good.

As for Iron Mountain County, he was never in a hurry. Those nobles had many ways to delay the enemy's army.

For Ryan, when he was present to support Iron Mountain County in the war, he cared more about the wealth that the war itself could bring.

Iron Mountain County owns a lot of Iron Ore, which are all interests that he can grasp. At the same time, Iron Mountain County's noble colleagues must further feel the pressure of war.

If he didn't lose any territory, it would be difficult for him Ryan to benefit from those nobles.

The more anxious the Iron Mountain County nobles are, the easier it will be for Ryan to obtain Iron Mountain County's wealth.

Three days later, that team Flying Wolf Cavalry appeared again at Zero Crossing City, and they were a little frightened when they saw tens of thousands of troops training outside the city.

"Lord Ryan, Viscount Walter, let me tell you, if you can arrive at Baron Malik's fortress five days in advance, the nobles of Iron Mountain County are willing to give you a personal reward of ten thousand Gold Coin."

"You go back and tell him that my army will set off in two days. If it cannot arrive within this time, it can only be said that I have no chance with the 10,000 Gold Coin."

Ryan said casually, how can he see three melons and two dates like ten thousand Gold Coin now?

Two days later, Ryan still set off with the army. The march was not very fast. In the process, he wanted to ensure that the tens of thousands of troops would not become chaotic due to the action.

Only by managing the soldiers under your command well can the soldiers display excellent combat effectiveness on the battlefield.

Along the way, Flying Wolf Cavalry would urge him every day. On the third day, Flying Wolf Cavalry finally brought some unfortunate news.

Baron Malik's castle was breached. Baron himself escaped with a large number of Baron family members, but the territory is now occupied by Viscount Hogg's army.
