Since he was the first to follow Lorne, Steve's appearance was very ugly.
But the strange thing is that when their own interests are involved, Marquis Clark and others did not fight back.
Steve thought they were afraid of his current power, but in fact, Lorne understood the reason.
He secretly sighed that the few old guys were well-informed and knew that they were summoned today not to reorganize the army.
They might also have known about Richard's arrival and purpose.
Now that the important people knew the purpose of his summons, Lorne simply stopped hiding it.
Signing for Steve to sit down, he said: "Earl Baker's proposal is a way, but that's not what I came here for today.
Not long ago I met Sir Richard Morris of the Morris family.
His arrival not only congratulates us in the north for solving the problem of orcs, but also the current threat of heretics is also one of the aspects. " Those here are not like Lorne.
As long as they say a name, they already understand everything roughly.
The Morris family is one of the most prominent warlord families in the empire, and the northern lords also pay a lot of attention to them.
"Last year, the Morris family suffered a tragic defeat at the hands of heretics, and then the entire family experienced civil strife.
Richard Morris is the son of the new Marquis Morris, and he definitely wants to bury the blame.
But this has nothing to do with us in the north.
If they want to fight the heretics, let them do it.
We don't need to participate. " Marquis Ryder's meaning was very clear.
He stood up and looked as if he was making a statement to Lorne, but his real purpose was to mobilize others present to oppose him.
On the surface, several old guys surrendered to Lorne, but secretly they were still unconvinced by a young man in his early twenties sitting on top of them and giving orders.
There will definitely be many things like today that deliberately stir up the atmosphere to influence Lorne's decision.
Unfortunately, Lorne doesn't buy it, let alone go along with their wishes.
"I heard the Marquis' proposal, but Your Excellency made two mistakes."
Since Lorne is sitting in the first place to issue the order, he can only be the right person.
"First of all, the Morris family is not here to invite us to the north."
Join their plan to counterattack the heretics.
Secondly, as a part of the empire, how can we say that there is no need to participate in the fight against the heretics.
Do they have to wait for them to kill everyone else in the empire, and then we come out to avenge those who died?
The Marquis's vision is a bit too narrow.
We northerners are not the kind of villains who hide behind and watch the show. " Lorne was scolded by Lorne in public for his age.
If Marquis Clark hadn't quietly pulled him aside, Marquis Ryder might have jumped up and argued with Lorne.
But under the current situation, Lorne dared not take Amanda and Otto's son seriously in public, and arguing with him would only end up humiliating himself.
After letting Marquis Ryder sit down, Marquis Clark asked Lorne.
"Since Richard of the Morris family is not here to counterattack the heretics, what is the purpose of his coming?"
The strength of the Ryder family has been weakened a lot by the red-eyed orcs, and there is no need for Lorne to let them fight the heretics to the death.
The target is still the Clark family, Lorne answered the Marquis who asked the question.
"Marquis Ryder also said just now that the Morris family experienced a disastrous defeat and lost many warriors due to internal problems within the family.
Now they have no ability to counterattack the heretics.
Sir Richard's arrival was only because of the Morris family.
They are about to be destroyed by the heretics, and he wants us in the north to help them escape the fate of being enslaved by the heretics. " As he spoke, Lorne asked someone to display a map in front of everyone, pointed at a part of it with a gentleman's rod, and continued.
"Everyone knows that the Morris Territory borders our northern border.
The heretics have already occupied the land in the southern part of the empire.
Originally, I was a little hesitant in the face of Sir Richard's request.
After all, our northern border has just experienced a war, and the soldiers need time to take a good rest.
But from here, everyone should understand what would happen if Morris Territory was really annexed by the heretics. " After encircling the small area connecting the Northern Territory and Morris Territory, Lorne knocked on the prompt and said: "Yes, we will probably be the next target of the heretics by then.
In order to prevent the war from burning to the North In the land of the border, I mean to give the heresy a head-on blow in the land of Morris."
For many years, even the orcs have rarely been able to cross the border fortress and enter the hinterland of the North.

If those heretics really entered the North from Morris Territory, it would undoubtedly be a loud slap in the face to the nobles present.
Focusing on face is a common problem among northerners.
Especially these old guys, they were already very unhappy with Lorne weighing them down.
Even heretics want to join in.
Not to mention face, whether the lizi can be saved is another question.
"Then teach them a lesson and eliminate them in Morris Territory.
I agree with the Earl's suggestion.
The Baker family supports the Earl's decision."
It's Steve again, this guy is determined to follow in Lorne's footsteps.
After him, the new Earl Charles, also from the Lorne lineage, also supported his decision, as did Earl Stany.
However, after Bowen had just expressed his opinion, Lorne dropped another piece of news.
"By the way, there is one more thing that everyone should know.
I already have information about the traitor John Carter, who is in the heretic army.
And he has become their lackey.
This time, among the troops who invaded Morris Territory John Carter was among them.
He completely gave up the dignity of a northerner and surrendered to the heretic.
In addition to defeating the heretic, it was also very important to capture him. " The news that John surrendered to the heretics aroused the anger of these lords even more than what he just said.
But after the atmosphere rose, Lorne said this.
"But we have just finished one battle, and it is still not appropriate to immediately engage in another battle.
And I heard that the heretics only dispatched a hundred thousand soldiers in total.
Facing such an enemy, if we mobilize our northern troops All the power in the northern border will inevitably make people think that our northern border is not an opponent of the heretics.
Therefore, I decided that this time the mission to rescue the Morris family did not require everyone to participate.
The honor of defeating the heretics and capturing John Carter alive, I don’t know which Marquis is willing to take on this important task.”
Lorne's meaning was obvious, that is, he would not give the opportunity to lead the troops to Morris this time to several marquis.
There was no problem with this.
There were only 100,000 heretics, and no one among the remaining troops of the Morris family thought it was a chore.
But just like what Lorne said just now, after just finishing an expedition, the second war that is about to start is still a war that has little to do with him.
Even the people in the north will be dissatisfied
