Lorne said it would be tomorrow, but in fact, sporadic fighting had already started.
It was impossible to allow the Holy Light Legion to set foot on the northern land so easily.
Lorne arranged many troops to snipe their march.
Of course, these people are the lord's private army, and the leaders are also members of their own families.
But even this kind of army, which is not popular in the north, still beat Carmen's Holy Light Legion to the point where they almost couldn't find their way north.
These soldiers who take turns to fight against the orcs on the battlefield all year round, even if no one organizes them, can defeat the army of believers temporarily formed by Carmen.
High morale cannot change this fate.
Knowing that her army could not fight against the northern soldiers without the Holy Light, Carmen had no choice but to shrink the surrounding soldiers and even scouts again.
Even the best scouts in the empire are no match for the scouts in the north.
Rather than letting them lose in vain, it would be better to gather these people together and use them as cavalry.
But what Carmen didn't know was that when she ordered to shrink all the scouts and gather the entire army into a group, Lorne had already smiled in victory.
An army without scouts is a blind man.
Carmen thought that by gathering the soldiers into one pile, they would be able to exert their greatest fighting power.
But like a blind man wandering around on the battlefield, no matter how powerful the combat power is, there is no way to exert it.
Lorne knew how terrifying the Holy Light was, but ordinary northern lords didn't understand this.
The army is most vulnerable to attack during the march.
Without the protection of scouts, even if it has ten times its own strength, there is no need to worry.
What's more, these lords have proven their strength with facts.
Therefore, some people violated Lorne's orders and launched a surprise attack on the main force of the Holy Light Legion.
Choosing to be at the rear of the Holy Light Legion, these people had some common sense and knew that it was impossible to defeat such a large enemy with their own strength, so they just wanted to fight and leave.
With the impact of the Northern Cavalry, this was just a charge.
But the result was obviously not as easy as these people expected.
Just after Lorne finished explaining to Lyle, Tan Ma brought him bad news.
"So Steve Baker of the Baker family violated my order, and then made himself a prisoner."
Those who dare to disobey Lorne's orders and actively provoke the Holy Light Legion must be a family with a certain status.
Maybe Steve wanted to make himself more dazzling in the future in the north, but it was obvious that this guy overestimated his military talents.
After a few small, painless battles, I felt like I was invincible.
Even Lorne didn't dare to touch the main force of the Holy Light Legion.
After uniting with several small lords, this guy actually dared to directly challenge the fake Keira.
Failure is a sure thing.
Lorne was not surprised at all to become a prisoner of the Holy Light Legion.
But before the war officially started, a big noble in the Northern Territory had become a prisoner.
Even if Steve himself was seeking death, it would be a huge blow to the Northern Territory.
All the victories gained in the past few days were wiped out at once, and Lorne only hated Steve for not dying on the spot.
At least after he died, Lorne could continue to arm those northern soldiers with hatred.
Now, he was sure that fake Keira would use those prisoners to make a fuss.
Sophia also said worriedly: "We have to find a way to rescue Steve Baker.
The Baker family has a lot of influence in the north.
What if he is influenced by that woman?"
The army is already approaching the city, there is no time to change the strategy for Steve.
Lorne interrupted Sophia and told her firmly.
"Can Steve Baker still change the fate of the North?
Write to Wendy and ask her to represent the Baker family if anything happens.
All other plans remain unchanged, and there are still those who are outside sniping at the Holy Light.
Legion guys, warn them not to attack the main force of the Holy Light Legion without my order."

After the incident of Steve being captured, no one needed to say anything from Lorne and there would definitely be no one stroking fake Kayla's beard anymore.
Moreover, the Holy Light Legion will meet the main force of Lorne in at most two days, and they do not need to do that.
But Sophia didn't think it would be that easy to replace Steve with Wendy.
"The Baker family has many legal heirs, but Wendy, as far as I know, doesn't seem to have any children at all."
The Baker family would never allow a childless woman to take charge of the family.
Even with Lorne's support, this would be impossible.
But Lorne didn't care about these things, and his way of dealing with them was very simple.
"If she doesn't have a child, I will give her one.
Let Zach be her child and claim to the outside world that he is a distant descendant of the Baker family."
Zach is Celine's second child.
The little boy was not even one year old when Lorne threatened to give it away.
Sophia is not Zach's mother, so she doesn't have many opinions on Lorne's arrangements.
The man planned to use his own heirs to replace the lord's enfeoffment plan, and the bishop had already heard Lorne mention it.
Now that he is arranging this, he obviously intends to let Zach inherit the Baker family in the future.
This road will definitely not be easy.
Even after defeating the church and the heresy, Lorne will still have to have a big conflict with the nobles of the empire.
But this is only good for Sophia.
Although her belly is not responding yet, the bishop believes that she will also become a mother in the future.
Lorne's arrangement proved that his children would also have the opportunity to become lords of a place in the future.
In fact, Sophia has chosen the place.
Wizard Island, which is considered advanced by everyone, is obviously a good place.
Because going there would allow her to stay away from Lorne.
After having children, Sophia would rather live with her children than stay with a man.
But they definitely can't tell Lorne what they're thinking, and they haven't taken Wizard Island into their own hands yet.
Sophia, who was not obsessed with Steve's problem and was thinking about the future, asked Lorne: "If you can win the church, there will be no problem in arranging whatever you want.
Now that woman is about to fight with us.
Wherever the heretic reinforcements are, they won't hide secretly and wait until we both lose."
Without Sophia's reminder, Lorne knew that heretics could not be trusted.
The ancestor of the Li family seemed to be sincere in exchanging letters with him to agree on an alliance.
In fact, no matter what idea the old man had, he could never hide it from Lorne.
That's why Lorne cooperated with John.
With the existence of John, a rebel, if the Li family was really ready to take advantage, he would directly pull John out of the dark corner
