The further north you go, the sparser the vegetation becomes, and the colder the weather becomes, but the road is flat and not too difficult.

After three days of marching, Rollin had only traveled two hundred miles with his army, and then he had to order rest.

Why? Because his army can't bear it.

After only walking 200 miles in three days, it is a strange news that it will be unbearable.

An army of 1,000 men set up camp on the outskirts of a maple forest, and the cooks began to build a cauldron to cook dry food, and as for Rollin, as a noble earl, he naturally had special treatment, and his food was a white-tailed deer hunted by archers, the most tender part of which was made into roast meat for him to enjoy, and the others were used to cook broth and be eaten by everyone.

Now, Rollin sat at the door of his tent very unfiguratively, munching on roast venison in his hand, and his eyes looked at the busy soldiers not far away.

The soldiers looked sluggish and listless, and walked with limp legs, obviously exhausted.

In Luo Lin's eyes, the average rank of this soldier is only level 10, and they are all ordinary quality bodies, even if they are the three knights who are officers who follow, they are only ordinary soldiers of level 15, and they are all thin and tender, and at first glance, they have not suffered much on weekdays, let alone pus bags that have been fighting.

Angela sat next to Rollin, as the daughter of the Grand Duke, her treatment was naturally the same as Rollin, and the hard practice in the past half a year had made her strength extremely significantly improved.

Now, she is already a level 24 ordinary warrior, not a level 21 weak warrior in the past, and her strength has increased from less than 70 before to 105 now.

She paid a little more attention to her demeanor than Rollin, kneeling on the ground and eating venison, she was also looking at these soldiers, and said to Rollin with great disdain: "Seriously, if it weren't for the military uniform, I wouldn't have believed that these were soldiers." ”

This is also too bad, this strength, compared to her father's regular army, is simply the difference between a child and an adult.

The Grand Duke's regular army, numbering 50,000 people, fought in the kingdoms of York and Aoraki all year round, and most of them were veterans of a hundred battles. Luo Lin has also seen that every veteran is above level 18, and the elite system accounts for more than one-fifth, even compared to the orcs.

It's no wonder Angela has a high vision.

Although Luo Lin was not satisfied with his soldiers, he did not come out, but maintained: "This is also normal. We don't need to fight here. At most, the soldiers are to maintain law and order, and they don't need such strong force. ”

"That's how it used to be, yes. But not now, our opponent is the Frost Giant. Each of those guys is at least two meters tall and is very brutal in strength. I feel like these people are going to die. Afraid of affecting morale, Angela deliberately lowered her voice.

Luo Lin nodded slightly: "I understand." If possible, we use tactics to avoid going head-to-head with the giants. ”

Of course, this is only possible, and Rollin knows very well that this will not work, because these pampered soldiers simply do not have such combat qualities. And he, this time he went north, he didn't expect to rely on these soldiers to destroy the frost giants.

"As you wish." Angela spread her hands and was silent for a while, then she said another message: "My father fortified the Southern Davik Fortress to defend against the Orcs and Undead Demons in the South. ”

"It's a smart move." Rollin nodded in approval.

Angela's face was worried: "But I think my father still doesn't pay enough attention, and he is still thinking about competing with Awlaki." You know, the undead demons of the South are getting more and more rampant, and the whole South has fallen a little bit. ”

These news are all from the people, and they are not accurate, in fact, Luo Lin has his own news channels and knows better.

In the south now, it is mainly the Radiant Church that is active, of course, not against the undead, without the help of secular forces, with that little Radiant Knight, the church is not the opponent of the undead at all.

All they did was send the Knights of Radiance to send the surviving people to the north. In the south, there are about 8 million people, and only more than 1 million people have successfully evacuated to the north, and the rest of them are unknown if they are alive or dead.

In fact, compared to the previous games, this is already a very good result. At this time in the previous life, the undead had actually begun to move north, but now, the orcs were frustrated in Vendôme, and the power of the undead was greatly affected, and their progress was greatly delayed.

According to the information that Rollin has now, he predicts that it will take at least a year and a half for the undead demon to gather enough strength to make a comeback.

For a year and a half, this is the buffer time that Rollin has won for the Archduke Lehman and the Terrans.

However, Angela was indeed overthinking, and what she could think of, how could her wise father not think of it.

In the previous life game, the Duchy of Lehman finally collapsed because after the Orc army stormed, the undead legions came one after another, and after trying their best to repel a wave of attacks by the undead, the Duchy was full of holes, and then the undead returned, among which there were many more dark demons, which could not hold on, and the whole country moved westward to take refuge in the Aoraki Kingdom.

Throughout the process of the principality's fight against darkness, the Grand Duke made a slight mistake in the early stage of tactics, but he has basically achieved the ultimate in strategy, even if he does it again, even if Luo Lin helps, it will be difficult to do better.

So during this time, as the Earl of Maple Leaf (the title he recently received), he just had to do his own thing.

Seeing Angela's somewhat melancholy appearance, Luo Lin comforted: "The Aoraki Kingdom does not think that the undead demons are a big problem, they are still aggressive on the battlefield, so it is impossible for the Grand Duke to withdraw his troops to the south immediately, he must maintain the deterrence of the Aoraki Kingdom." Now the situation is very good. Angela, you should trust your father. ”

Angela was relieved and nodded, agreeing. After thinking about it, she said again: "Luo Lin, you have also made a lot of money in the past six months, and you are also lenient to the people." I think you should prepare your army in the future. How difficult it is on the mainland now, a soldier like such a weak chicken is simply useless. ”

This was exactly what Rollin meant, and he smiled, but said of his difficulties: "Let's take a look first." I have that idea too, but you also know that these soldiers, especially the three knights, have some backgrounds. Look at the young man, Knight Grayman, whose father was the consul of Levineshire. And that one, Knight Hoftan, whose father was the mayor of Creekwood Town, Maple County. These people are my right-hand men, and I have to take care of their feelings. ”

Today, Rollin is familiar with this Angela, and at this time, these words can be regarded as heart-to-heart.

Hearing his words, Angela was slightly stunned, glanced at Luo Lin, and smiled: "Just listening to what you said just now, I almost thought that it was my father who spoke." ”

By now, she must admit that this Luo Lin is not only strong in force, but also has a good ability to govern the territory.

"Haha, I'm not that old." Rollin laughed.

After that, the two chatted casually, the atmosphere was very harmonious, Rollin also tested Angela's martial arts, very good, with her current strength, coupled with her own special talent, she should be able to fight against a level 25 elite knight captain of the principality, what is missing is combat experience.

After correcting some of Angela's flaws in the details, it was already dark, and Rollin prepared to go into his tent to rest.

"Rollin." Angela shouted again, and the campfire flickered not far away, hiding herself in the shaking shadows.

"Anything else?" Rollin stopped and looked back at her.

"I'll ask you something." Angela took another step back, her voice lower, almost whispering, hidden in the night wind, which she couldn't hear if it weren't for Rollin's hearing.

Rollin turned around and looked directly at Angela: "You say, I listen." ”

"It's been more than half a year, and I haven't seen you have any contact with any woman, except for handling government affairs, just reading books and practicing martial arts. Haven't you considered that your realm needs an heir? ”

Rollin was stunned, and through the night of light and darkness, he saw Angela's crescent-like eyes, which were full of this indescribable taste...... Well, he had seen it in the eyes of Davi, Luphy, and Vianna, and he still didn't understand anything, and with a turn of his mind, he came up with a reason for refusal.

"His Majesty Parasen was obsessed with martial arts, never married, and reached the top at the age of forty, and I intend to emulate the sages."

"Wrong! The sword saint didn't marry because of martial arts, but because his sweetheart had passed away. Angela retorted that geography was straightforward and full of tsundere.

Red Moon Sword Saint, at the age of eighteen, achieved nothing, poor, but there is a beloved woman who has been by his side to support, and then the woman was unfortunately run over by a noble son's carriage on the street, seriously injured, the young Sword Saint had no money to heal, watched the death of his beloved, and finally worked hard, becoming a generation of Tianjiao. This is a secret to ordinary people, but it is recorded in the history of the Lehman family.

Luo Lin didn't expect this secret to be shaken out by Angela, he shook his head and smiled bitterly, speechless for a while.

Angela is worthy of being the daughter of the Grand Duke, and after the initial shyness, she let go: "Rollin, I see you very pleasing to the eye now, and I think you are a good partner, so I allow you to propose marriage to my father." ”

Rollin was sweating, this Angela was really a little tough, he shook his head directly: "But I don't have this idea." I'll teach you martial arts, and when you're done, we'll be fine...... Okay, okay, after a day of walking, I'm tired, I'm going to rest. ”

Without waiting for Angela to speak, he fled into the tent, and when he saw that the girl had not caught up, he let out a long breath.

He has Vianna alone in his heart, and he has been getting along intimately recently, he found that Vianna was a little jealous, found that there was a beautiful girl next to him, and specially asked about it, how dare he mess with flowers.

As soon as he breathed a sigh of relief, a voice came from outside the tent: "Luo Lin, it's useless for you to escape." I've identified you, wait! ”

Luo Lin suddenly had a headache, Angela, this girl has a tough personality, no better than Dai Wei and Lu Fei, those two girls have been cold for a long time, and there is no problem. But Angela, she is sure of the ground, and it will be difficult for her to give up.

After thinking about it, Luo Lin didn't come up with a way, so he could only cover it up with water.

Early the next morning, the soldiers finally rested and continued their departure. Angela met Rollin and greeted him as usual as if nothing had happened last night.

For the time being, it didn't seem to be anything unusual, and Rollin was a little relieved and continued to move north. It took another three days to stop and go, and the scouts who had been sent out finally reported that there were traces of the Frost Giant's activity ahead.

"Probe!" Rollin ordered the scout, he needed more detailed information.

But I don't know why, this very ordinary order, the scout in front of him didn't move, but hesitated, as if he didn't want to take any more risks.

Luo Lin frowned suddenly. R1152
