The military forces of the three counties Northwind County, Dragon Mountain County, and Zero Crossing Prefecture are all gathered here. You can imagine how many noble members there will be among them.

Those members of the nobility represented the Baron and viscounts behind them, and even the two earls.

After spending a day, Ryan divided the army into the front, middle and rear armies. Zero Crossing Prefecture's army was okay, after all, they were all around him, but the other nobles seemed to have exploded.

"Baron Ryan, why did my army march at the front and take away the weapons of my soldiers, and only gave them axes and shovels!?"

"Baron Ryan, my army has always been responsible for the left wing, why should we be at the front?"

"Baron Ryan, my army is not my family's army, but is composed of three soldiers from Baron and Lordship. We..."

Looking at the roaring nobles in front of him, Ryan looked coldly.

"Slave soldiers are not suitable for going to the battlefield. It is best to use them to open roads, build bridges, dig pits, fill manure, and clean battlefields..."

After Ryan finished speaking, he ignored Baronet Fran's blushing face and looked at the other noble.

"The transportation of grain and grass is under the greatest pressure. If you want to go to the battlefield, holding on to the grain and grass is the greatest achievement. Even the people responsible for suppressing the civilians and slaves in the Thundercloud County noble territory to avoid riots will need to be transferred from your hands."

"We enter Thundercloud County from Crimsonwing Plains. The road is flat. What is the difference between the left wing and the right wing? The enemy may rush into our army from anywhere."

"And..."

Ryan explained patiently, but——he only explained it once.

"I..."

Baronet Arietta looked ugly. Of course, the soldiers he led could not be just an army of a noble family, but a coalition of many nobles. Of course, he was dissatisfied with Ryan asking him to be responsible for transporting grain and grass.

Everyone knows that they are attacking Thundercloud County now, and Count Weiss has been defeated by them. Entering Thundercloud County will bring a lot of military exploits and wealth. If he cannot get enough benefits, he will not know how to explain to those nobles after he returns.

But as soon as he opened his mouth to refute, Ryan had already stood up. Silver Knight's powerful courage was suppressed, and his eyes were looking at Lordship like Dragons.

"If you don't accept it, I will change someone to take charge of the food and fodder now!"

"Keep the food you are responsible for. If anything goes wrong, military law will be dealt with!"

After saying that, Ryan's voice also slowed down.

"If the attack goes well and you ensure that food and fodder are not lost, this contribution may not make you into the top ten."

After Ryan finished speaking, the eyes of Baronet Arietta in front of him lit up. In the previous discussion, Ryan had the right to decide the credit after the victory of the war.

To be precise, it records which nobles made greater contributions in the war.

This involves the final division of interests, a concession made by the two earls to Ryan.

"Then..."

"The army will enter Thundercloud County in a few days, why are you still here?"

Ryan then used carrots and sticks to drive other nobles out Mobile Fortress. Looking at the backs of these nobles leaving, Ryan smiled slightly in his heart.

If we can keep the security of food and grass, it may not be impossible to be in the top ten, not to mention the top five, but the problem is...

There are not only two or three families responsible for the security of food and grass. In addition to slave soldiers, there are also six thousand regular troops. Among those six thousand soldiers, Northwind County and Dragon Mountain County are almost every noble.

No matter how great the credit is, it doesn't matter if you get even one point.

Svadilfari, above the wilderness, Grand Mage Macken's racecourse research institute.

After arranging the army for three consecutive days, Ryan finally had time to come here to see the war horse that he had longed for.

"I've grown a lot taller."

Ryan looked at the wild horses in the racecourse, and then blessed them one by one. Each one was blessed with thirty spiritual spirits. Although the spiritual energy was abundant, he still could not bless each one with hundreds of spiritual spirits.

"Is it really possible? Can all wild horses do this, or can only wild horses in this world and in this wilderness be blessed?"

Ryan thinks it's the latter, because it's not like he has never tried to bless those Highland Warhorse.

The effect is minimal.

"It will take at most three to five years for the first batch of first-generation war horses to grow. If you can buy more potions, the speed can continue to increase."

From the data given by Grand Mage Macken, it is of course impossible for Ryan to spend hundreds or even thousands of Gold Coin on each head, just to speed up the growth of the war horse, and even if it were willing, there would be no time to transport the magic potion.

"Don't worry, it's still too expensive."

Ryan said that if he could, he would not spend this money. The consumption is too much. According to a year ago, many Baron's annual income was only a few thousand Gold Coin. No matter how squandering it is, it is not such a squandering method.

If you are not a big noble, it is really difficult for you to afford the high-end market of war horses.

"If everything goes well, I can get some land after the war is over, and that land can be used to cultivate potions."

The magic potion you grow yourself will definitely be much cheaper than buying it directly with money.

When the demons Mages encounter this kind of thing, their first thought is to buy it with money, but Ryan is a nobleman, a nobleman who owns land. He is more interested in production than consumption.

This is the ideological gap between him and Grand Mage Macken. After all, as a demon Mages, Grand Mage Macken has no territory and can only obtain materials by purchasing.

In this way, a large amount of Gold Coin can be saved, which can be used where it is needed more.

Satisfied with the fifty first-generation war horses in the racecourse, Ryan returned to Crimsonwing Plains. An army of tens of thousands of people was still unable to control him. A few days only allowed him to simply control the coalition forces of the three counties.

Finally, the time is getting closer and closer to the day of attack.

"Let the former army enter Thundercloud County and station it in two parts by the lake ten miles south and east of Glimmer Territory. They will mine trees to forge toilets. Sufficient quantities must be prepared before the arrival of the army."

"The rear army divided 3,500 soldiers to escort the grain and fodder, follow the front army, and stationed at the south of Glimmer Territory."

The army finally began to attack Thundercloud County. The tens of thousands of troops advanced in order, and the pressure brought by them was like dark clouds covering the sky, and thunder roaring in it. At this moment, not only the nobles, but even the two earls who stayed in their respective Extraordinary Legion looked at this scene in shock.

They had never thought that the advancing army could do this.

How did they do it before? The big nobles arranged it, the small nobles each brought their own troops, and then it was over.

But now that tens of thousands of troops from three counties have been integrated, even though the march is still messy, and there are even soldiers walking into the ranks of other armies, they are still shocked, as if Dragons is crawling on the ground and advancing slowly.

The 30,000-strong Chinese army is not advancing very fast. This is the speed that Ryan considered based on observations over the past few days. Even the soldiers with the lowest quality can still keep up with the large army while gasping for breath.

Without chaos, this army will be strong enough.
