I Want To Be a Nobleman

Chapter 173: It Still Failed After All

Marcus and the legendary powerhouse from the Newborn Alliance stayed in the Giant Fortress to appease the high-level leaders of their respective camps, waiting for good news from the troops who assassinated the Winged Queen.

As for the failure of the operation, or even being killed by the Winged Queen, they don't want to think about it, let alone think about it, because it would be a disaster for everyone!

Marcus was playing with his daughter Annie on a rare occasion, and Annie was very unhappy because of Harold's intentional alienation, and she took a long time to throw her temper at him.

"Brother Harold is good or bad, and he doesn't want to accompany me. Dad, teach him a lesson!" Annie was also spoiled into a half-giant baby, and lost her temper at the slightest dissatisfaction.

"Dad will definitely teach him a lesson when he turns around. I heard from mom that you seem to have awakened the flame ability. How about showing dad?"

It has to be said that the power inheritance of the nobles is very unreasonable. A spoiled young lady like Anne can easily awaken the power of the blood with the tyranny of Marcus's blood.

However, Marcus's strength is about to be promoted to the legendary level, and his bloodline is indeed too good, and there is only one heir, Anne, which is still rare.

Annie's flame ability is similar to magic tricks, and it takes a lot of effort to use it to live, but it also made Marcus happy for a while. He didn't know why, but he couldn't bear children, even if he found other women in private, it was useless. If Annie Naturally, he couldn't awaken the blood, so he could only find a way to prepare some drugs to stimulate the blood.

The medicinal herbs used to make Hero's Water can also be made into potions to help awakening, but the natural awakening potential is greater, and the blood passed to the next generation is stronger. Unless it is a last resort, Marcus really does not want to use drugs to stimulate.

Just when Marcus was getting along with his daughter happily, suddenly one of his knights rushed in through the door in a panic, bent down and panted heavily, and seemed to have been running at full speed for a long time to report the news.

Marcus doesn't like to be disturbed when he gets along with his family. His subordinates know this well. There must be very important information for pushing the door in so hastily now.

"Annie, go play with your older sisters in the house. Dad has something to do!" Marcus said in a serious tone, but Annie didn't mess around and went back to the house obediently.

At this moment, the knight stood up and said out of breath, "Orcs, Huhu found a large army of orcs!"

The knight had to take a breather after he said a few words. After he found out the information, he galloped non-stop to the giant fortress overnight. The horse died halfway, so he galloped on foot, at least dozens of kilometers, and almost died.

"What, can you explain more clearly?" Marcus's pupils shrank suddenly. In fact, he had always been deeply worried. The number of orcs who came to attack them was too small, and the Tuvala Alliance was facing more than 300,000 people. army of orcs.

The Kurt Alliance has 170,000 or 17,000 or 80,000 people, but the orcs who attacked them later turned out to be only 50,000! Where did the rest of the orc army go?

Of course, the small number of orcs is a good thing. Before the reinforcements from the dwarves and other races came, the army of the Kingdom of Corondo and the Newborn Alliance would have a hard time coping with 30,000 orcs. If hundreds of thousands of orcs came together, they would definitely have to abandon the territory and wait for reinforcements. .

But where did the remaining large orc army go? This worry was like a thorn in the bottom of Marcus's heart, making him sleepless. Now the most feared thing really happened!

"I discovered the movement of the orcs in the north of the kingdom. There are at least 70,000 to 80,000 of them, and they may have entered our border now!" The knight spoke quickly, but his words were very clear.

Marcus took a few steps back unconsciously, he was not surprised by this number, there should have been more, but the current Giant Fortress is simply unable to fight these orcs!

The human army had suffered heavy casualties before. Even if many soldiers who were defeated by the orcs in the plains returned to the army, there were still only less than 50,000 soldiers. Because of the bravery of the newborn alliance, the number of deaths was less than 5,000.

The reinforcement dwarves and lizardmen suffered heavy losses from the sneak attack. The lizardmen only had more than 4,000 left, and the dwarves were only in their early 2,000. Moreover, the various supplies for the defense of the city were almost consumed, which was nothing compared to before. Oil, arrows, etc. The arrows are basically exhausted, and the ballistas are all scrapped. Even with the support of the city wall, they can only fight in close combat.

If there are 20,000 or 30,000 orcs, there is still a chance to fight, and if it is more than 50,000, it is courting death! Marcus was left in a cold sweat, struggling violently in his heart.

"Immediately rule over all the nobles in the fortress and those who are responsible for other races. Call an emergency meeting. Don't tell the story of the orc attack. Even if you want to withdraw, everyone must withdraw together!"

The knight of Marcus got the information and told Marcus the first time. No one else knew the news. Of course, Marcus would make it clear, but he must not mess up at this time.

Of course, Harold was the first to hear the news. Marcus asked his subordinates to notify others of the meeting, and I told Harold the news as soon as possible.

"The orcs are really coming again?" Harold was a little shocked when he heard what Marcus said.

"I'm not kidding about this. There are too many orcs. We can't hold them. We have to retreat. Do you think it's better for us to go to the Dwarf Kingdom or the Lucanir Kingdom?"

Marcus himself is definitely willing to go to the Kingdom of Lucanir, but Lucanier heard that there are hundreds of thousands of orcs attacking, and the signal for help has been sent to them, so don't have to flee when the time comes.

The dwarf kingdom will never be easily conquered. When the crisis is reached, a large conscription will be launched. The hundreds of thousands of dwarf civilians who are willing to defend their motherland will be warriors with weapons, and they will definitely be able to fight against the army of orcs.

It's just that although the Dwarf Kingdom has a good relationship with the Corondo Kingdom, it is far worse than going to the Human Kingdom. Nobles are nobles in any human kingdom, but it is hard to say if you go to the Dwarf Kingdom.

"We alone can't make a decision. The Newborn Alliance, Lizardmen, and Dwarves will definitely choose to go to the Dwarf Kingdom. The Lucanir Kingdom is very racially exclusive, and they definitely don't want to!"

Harold didn't bother with this issue much, but felt very uncomfortable. After finally repelling the orcs, did he want to retreat immediately? No, it's escape! Leaving the territory and people behind, fleeing like a bereaved dog cannot be called a retreat.

Marcus didn't pay much attention to Harold's answer, as if he was thinking about something.

"Harlot, do you think we can retreat with the civilians?" Marcus asked this question after hesitation for a long time, which was actually his main purpose for coming to Harold.
