Celine had no idea about Lorne's hidden gold coins.
After listening to Lorne's words, she carefully calculated their current situation.
She gave another suggestion.
"Since we can't use black slaves, let's try highland savages.
Just within the northern border, as long as the price is right, someone will help us catch them.
It's just that those guys are not very obedient.
They need to think of something after turning into puppets, otherwise they will be too eye-catching. " Lorne, the highland savage, also heard about it.
At first, the muscular man he transformed from an orc was misunderstood as a highland savage.
According to his brief understanding, the so-called highland savages are also a specialty of the north, just like orcs.
It's just that the highland savages are not as harmful as the orcs to the northern border.
Although they seem to be powerful, they lack advanced combat power and advanced civilization, so they are just a vulnerable group.
If those guys hadn't been extremely disobedient to orders, mainly distributed in the inaccessible highlands and wilderness, and were extremely stubborn and rough, they might have been arrested by the nobles.
Moreover, Lorne heard an interesting rumor.
It is said that the highland savages still have the blood of orcs.
Someone once discovered a highland savage with similar berserk abilities.
This is also one of the reasons why it is difficult for the highland savages to integrate into the empire.
But for Lorne, those untameable savages are the best material.
What is needed to transform people is a strong body.
Whether the brain is strong or not does not make much difference.
He felt some interest in those highland savages, and he immediately said: "If the price is right, we can give it a try.
There is no one else on the grassland anyway, so who cares whether my soldiers are northerners or savages."
The soldiers' problems were solved with gold coins, but the financial aspect was naturally even more difficult.
Almost all the proceeds from the giant wolf trade are used to purchase mountain savages.
So, where does the equipment come from?
The mine that originally belonged to the Fast family was recaptured, but it was obviously impossible for Lorne to arm an army in a short time by himself.
Just to assemble his existing troops and equip them, he relied on the help of the Tuk and State territories.
At this moment, he was asked to go get another batch of weapons.
After telling Celine the problem, Lorne planned to take advantage of the situation to reveal his plan to rob his neighbor.
Unexpectedly, Celine actually set her sights on the Harrison family.
"Indeed, we can't guard the Harrison family with empty hands.
Their family has been fighting the orcs, and there must be a lot of weapons piled up in the warehouse.
Now that we are at the front, instead of storing those weapons in the warehouse, Why don't you leave it to us?
I will talk to the Harrison family when they arrive.
Anyway, the stature of those highland savages is very similar to that of orcs, and they can also use the weapons used by orcs to fight.
If the Harrison family still wants to cooperate, they will not refuse our request. " Lorne heard that Celine had already secretly worked hard for the plan on the grassland.
Everything has been thought out by the other party, so doesn’t he have no excuse to cause trouble to the neighbors?
After spending some time with Lorne, the beast's behavior pattern became more straightforward.
Celine understood Lorne's thoughts very well.
For example, he wanted to provoke the surrounding lords.
When Lorne opened his mouth, the woman already understood.
Seeing Lorne's unwillingness, Celine was afraid that he would secretly create disputes without telling her.
Therefore, Celine took the initiative to speak out Lorne's thoughts.
"I know you want to extract resources from the surrounding lords, but the Tuke family's matter is just special.
If you do it once, it won't be so simple the second time.
Not to mention that the Grand Duke of the North cannot completely occupy the territory of those lords.

A temporary victory will bring us long-term troubles.
You don’t want to see your old nest taken over by others just after we move our focus to the grassland.”
With the condition of the Cyborg and the strength of the Fast Territory, Lorne really did not have the ability to fight on two fronts.
But if the shot is hard enough and the opponent cannot recover, there is no need to worry that they will cause trouble behind their back.
Without Lorne opening his mouth, Celine could see from the man's disdainful expression what he was thinking.
Knowing that after defeating the strongest Tuk leader, Lorne no longer paid attention to the surrounding lords, and Celine had to bring up Byron's matter again.
"And Byron Charles can't be found until now.
I'm familiar with my cousin.
Even Gus died in your hands, and he won't give up.
As soon as the fight begins, he will definitely be able to detect suspicion in our actions.
When the time comes, we won’t just be facing the few little lords around us.
Do you know how many warriors and knights the Charles family has?"
It's Byron again.
I should have known that the old guy was so troublesome.
Lorne should have tried his best to kill the opponent at the beginning, but because he was greedy for a great knight and let Byron escape his life, Lorne regretted that it was already too late.
As for Celine's question, he couldn't answer it accurately.
Logically speaking, a count family has thousands of family warriors.
The Harrison family, which can casually summon more than 5,000 earls at one time, is already second only to the four marquises.
According to Lorne's estimate, even if the Charles family does not have 5,000 family warriors, it should at least maintain the number of 2,000 or 3,000. .
Coupled with the small lords who are vassal to the Charles family, the number of elite warriors alone is ten times that of his.
With a gap of ten times, how can we fight this war?
We don't even need to bother to start a war.
Send some knights to carry out a beheading operation, and Lorne will be dead.
Before he had the means to confront those big families head-on, Lorne had to stay in hiding when he should.
I felt very unhappy, but that was the fact.
Celine didn't mean to hit Lorne, she felt that the necessary pressure would help a man grow.
"But it doesn't matter.
The grassland is their blind spot.
Even the power of the Northern Duke can't reach there.
As long as we take root there, we don't need to worry about them later."
What Celine meant by taking root was not just occupying the barren grassland outside the Harrison family.
If it weren't for the lack of reward for the efforts, that barren grassland would have been occupied by the Harrison family long ago.
The woman meant to treat it as an outpost deep into the grassland.
After Lorne accumulated enough advantages through the use of meat balls, they would take over a fertile grassland as their own pasture.
By then, you will have soldiers and a piece of grassland as resources.
In the entire northern border, there are probably only a few marquis who can compete with them.
The Harrison family and the Charles family, even if they knew their secrets, they couldn't do anything to them.
Of course Lorne understood the plan that he had discussed many times, but it was not easy to swallow the frustration in his heart
