I Want To Be a Nobleman
Chapter 174 Difficult Choice
Harold was really stunned when he heard what Marcus said. He never expected that Marcus would be entangled in this matter. It's hard to think about it. He must have only led the army to run away. He couldn't save his life from being beaten by the orcs. Do you still care about civilians?
Although Marcus is the most outstanding nobleman of this era, both in terms of character and strength, he is quite admirable, but he also cannot surpass the limitations of the era.
In this era, the life of a commoner is worthless, and the weak are not qualified to live when danger strikes. Marcus can be regarded as an excellent nobleman if he treats the people well in peacetime.
Even Harold, who traveled from the earth and received modern education, never thought of saving the refugees. There is no way, the strength is really not enough. Both the orcs and the winged people are far stronger than the Kingdom of Corondo. It is very difficult for them to protect themselves. .
Are you serious? How did we avoid the orcs' pursuit with a large group of civilians? How can we break through the blockade of the winged humans with so many civilians following us?
Harold asked Marcus in a helpless tone, whether it is the road leading to Lucanir or the road leading to the dwarf kingdom, they must pass through the blockade of the Wingmen, and the burden of dragging hundreds of thousands of civilians must be for him Yiren delivers food.
Do you think that if we leave the civilians of the Kingdom of Corondo and run away, we will be able to create a country on our own in the future? Could it be that we have been ordinary nobles in Lucanir from now on? We have even been mixed in the Dwarf Kingdom, even the nobles You can't even keep your title?
Marcus began to explain why he wanted to save a large number of civilians. In Marcus' view, after repelling the orcs and wingmen, he must rebuild the Kingdom of Corondo. After more than 20 years of hard work, he did not I had the heart to just give up.
And the people of Corondo's own country have been massacred. When the time comes, these nobles who betrayed and abandoned the people, who are willing to migrate to their new country?
Harold understands what Marcus intends, and is also a little hesitant. If the Kingdom of Corondo can really be rebuilt after the war, it will definitely be better than staying in other countries, but this matter is really unsolvable. Can civilians live? He can decide, it depends on whether the orcs and the winged people agree or not!
We can retreat to the east! The Wingmen blocked the south and west, and the orcs came from the north. As long as we retreat from the east, we don't have to worry about the enemy's troops!
Seeing that Harold was a little moved, Marcus revealed his plan. This plan is indeed feasible. The orcs have no cavalry, and their pursuit ability is average. Compared with leaving the territory of the Kingdom of Corondo for a long-distance pursuit, Marcus is definitely more willing to continue Expansion to the south completely destroys the Kingdom of Corondo.
Harold thought for a moment, but did not give an answer immediately: You let me think about it for a while, this matter is not only related to me, I will definitely give you an answer before the meeting is over!
Marcus didn't force it either. At this time, the nobles and dignitaries of other races were almost summoned, and Marcus and Harold also went to the meeting room with heavy steps.
What's wrong with summoning us so suddenly? Couldn't there be something wrong with the team that assassinated the Winged Queen?
As soon as Marcus showed up, he was questioned by the nervous crowd. It must be a big deal to get everyone together, and of course they would be nervous.
A large army of orcs is marching towards us! The number exceeds 70,000, it is definitely not something we can resist, everyone is ready to retreat!
Marcus also spoke quickly, without any inkling, and directly informed everyone of the crisis of the orcs and their decision to retreat.
As it should be, everyone was shocked, embarrassed, and flustered, while Harold sat in his seat thinking about whether to support Marcus's opinion and lead the civilians to retreat eastward.
The dwarves and lizardmen were fine. They had already thought about retreating to their own country as soon as possible after being attacked by the winged men. Now the orcs' attack only strengthened their decision to retreat.
The dignitaries of the Newborn Alliance all showed painful expressions. They were about to be chased away by the orcs again, and the nobles of the Corondo Kingdom were a little bit overwhelmed.
From the beginning of the firm determination to fight the orcs, to the difficult victory, and then to the news that the winged people were attacking the rear territory, they have gone through many blows and finally survived. Now they are told that they will finally leave the territory and flee. It seemed that their previous efforts were meaningless.
Bastard, if I knew this earlier, wouldn't it be better to retreat directly at the beginning?
More than half of my knights died in battle, and their bloodline strength was almost exhausted. Is this the result?
Marcus could understand the grievances of the nobles. At the beginning, not everyone wanted to hold on to the territory and resist the orcs. It was because of his and Harold's insistence that they made up their minds to fight the orcs.
The reality is not comics, there is no such thing as a handsome performance that you will not regret or blame once you make up your mind, the nobles burst into anger directly, but fortunately, Marcus has a relatively high prestige, and no one dares to name and slander.
Harold sighed. It is estimated that Marcus' decision to retreat with the civilians will not be supported by any nobles. Now his words may not be willing to be listened to. This is the disadvantage of the leader, and the result is good. People respect and enjoy the greatest benefits, but if the result is bad, they must take responsibility, even if the starting point is the same.
Harold ignored everyone, but chatted with Alan's puppet clone. Tiona and Ike were bored at the meeting last time, and they were not interested in mixing it up again. Kryon was not here, so Harold could only talk to Alan discusses.
This puppet clone was made by Alan before Elder Leonard, and it can be controlled from a distance to make calls and communicate. Alan was worried here, and left this puppet when he left with the troops that assassinated the Winged Queen, so that Harlow Special activation at critical moments.
Leonard had studied long-distance communication devices before. Apart from him, this puppet avatar would be difficult to make even for a legendary mage. Harold was so angry that he would not let him sell such a good thing. He would ask for 200,000 gold coins for some shabby ones. Isn't this clearly bullying people!
Of course, this is the critical moment that Ailan mentioned. Not to mention anything else, the news that everyone is going to evacuate the Giant Fortress must be told to the legendary team that is preparing to assassinate the Winged Queen.
Alan, where are you going to let the elves withdraw? Lucanir and the elves have a good relationship, after all, it is next to the forest of elves, and the size of the kingdom of Lucanir often depends on the elves, so Alan took his people there It will definitely be treated preferentially, the dwarf kingdom is almost the same.
I will let them follow you. Tiona and Bias are unwilling to separate from you, and I personally think that it is safer for the clansmen to be with your troops. The winged people have rebelled, and other races may not be bewitched by the demons. of!
