Once you have such a large territory, the next thing will be very easy to operate.
What John lacked was just a stepping stone, and Lorne happened to help him negotiate cooperation with the Harrison family.
With such a good opportunity, he naturally wanted to step in.
Walter's behavior gave him a step up, and now he just waits for Lorne to be defeated by the opponent and escape to the Harrison family.
For this reason, John is already on his way to the Harrison family.
He even recruited an army to deal with Walter.
Compared with the benefits of opening up territory and getting a piece of grassland, offending the Baker family didn't matter.
No matter what he did, he couldn't get the old woman's forgiveness.
Of course, with his joining, he should naturally be the main force in developing the grassland.
John thought simply and acted thoroughly.
Through Maxi, he conveyed the meaning to Lorne tactfully.
For a piece of grassland, how could he care about other things.
But when Lorne learned about John's kindness, he was not so grateful.
He did not dare to accept the help for no reason.
Especially for someone with an awkward status like John, but personally, he is still very grateful to the other person.
Arranging for Marco to go west to rest, Lorne immediately found Celine who was receiving the Archduke's messenger.
Celine didn't know Marcosi, and she thought Lorne came to her to discuss the ceremony.
After hearing Lorne repeat what Marcosi said, she realized the seriousness of the situation.
The wars that had been tried so hard to avoid suddenly came one after another, and a John Carter was involved.
The illegitimate son of the Grand Duke of the North is definitely a big trouble.
Nobles with status are even more able to avoid contacting him without contacting him.
It is rare for Lorn to make friends with him and even exchange information with him.
Especially in the end, the other party also hinted that he could help them.
According to Celine's idea, of course he refused in one fell swoop.
After joining forces with John Carter to deal with Walter, she could already foresee the subsequent crazy revenge of the Baker family.
"We must not get so close to John Carter, otherwise we won't be facing those small lords."
After first ruling out the possibility of joining forces with John, Celine continued, "But what he said makes sense, Val Tebek's goal is the title.
No surrender can make the opponent give up.
We can only defeat him completely. " Lorne also believes that he cannot hang out with John.
The reasons are somewhat different from Celine, but the difference is not very different.
The ambitious John would definitely be a big trouble, and Lorne would not do anything like helping others seize their savings.
But if he doesn't accept John's help with force, how can he deal with Walter?
The other party wants more than just his title.
Lorne doesn't want green smoke to rise from his grave after his death.
"When can those highland savages arrive soon?"
With his current strength, it would be difficult for Lorne to win, so he decided to send Celine out to negotiate the purchase of slaves some time ago.
But few people in the north would buy mountain savages, so even the lords near the highlands and wilderness would not have much inventory.
Celine told Lorne truthfully: "We have just started doing this, not to mention the price of five gold coins for a savage is not high.
Therefore, it will take some time to be effective.
But we actually have no chance of winning. " Lorne was the one with war experience, in his estimation.
A group of five hundred Cyborg soldiers can generally defeat a well-trained family warrior from another world at a ratio of about one to three.
This is the approximate data on the frontal battlefield.
Soldiers whose profession is to kill far surpass the cold weapon army in Lorn's impression, both in terms of technology and will.
But if those conscripts were replaced, five hundred reformed soldiers could defeat an army of several thousand people with their will.
But it is estimated that Walter will not go to great lengths to recruit those farmers to fight for him, just recruiting a few will be enough to deal with Lorne.

This is just for soldiers.
Taking into account the strength of knights, Lorne is even more disadvantaged.
He suffered heavy losses when a small cavalry unit charged down.
Unless it's a night battle where you can't tell the enemy from the enemy like we did against the Tuk family, how can we talk about the chance of winning?
If that doesn't work, then mobilize urgently and turn all the gathered farmers into reformed people.
With his heart pounding, Lorne thought of this move.
But not only is time not allowed, this hysterical and desperate tactic will not be used by Celine.
Yes, Celine has never participated in the war, but a woman's political ability is definitely ahead of Lorne.
The odds of winning she talked about had nothing to do with tactics, but rather seemed to be playing a diplomatic game.
"Although we do not advocate for the nobles to appoint civilians, it does not touch the roots of the surrounding lords.
As long as some appropriate benefits are given, it is still possible for everyone to live in harmony.
And for every friend we gain, Walter Beck loses a helper.
If we can convince a few of the lords to stand on the same front as us, Walter Baker, who we first arrived at, is no match for us at all. " Indeed, there are only four or five baronies surrounding the Fast Territory.
Even if Walter pulled in the lords who were a little further away, there would only be seven or eight at most.
If they could unite with the surrounding lords, Walter, who had no advantage in military strength, would just be a clown.
It's okay if he doesn't come.
As long as he dares to step into the land of Fast Territory, Lorne will keep it safe so that he can never come back.
"Then what are we waiting for?
Let's start with Yadu first.
That old guy took a quarry from Tukland and cheated me of so many gold coins.
It's time to let him bleed."
Yadu was of course the first choice, but now he rushed over and told him that Walter from the Baker family was coming to do justice for heaven.
The old guy kept clear of boundaries with Lorne as soon as possible, and was more likely to gather people to side with Walter.
Therefore, Celine did not rush to negotiate with Yadu, but came up with an idea: "Don't be anxious.
If you don't show your strength, who can safely stand by our side?"
I originally planned to keep Marty's promotion ceremony simple this time, but now it seems that it won't work.
I will immediately write a letter to invite the surrounding barons.
At that time, we will pull out all the troops we can to show them, and then talk to them about the prospects for future development. " Carrot and stick, simple and crude method.
Lorne understood what Celine meant immediately, and Lorne did have his advantage in this regard.
After all, the uniform formation of the Cyborgs can definitely intimidate many people, coupled with the power in the hands of Peter and Xiao Nai.
After careful calculation, he, a baron, could actually gather nearly a thousand regular warriors.
Once this scene unfolds, anyone who wants to confront him must be careful
